    Visuality and Spatiality in Virginia Woolf's Fiction

    No full text
    This book offers an interpretative key to Virginia Woolf???s visual and spatial strategies by investigating their nature, role and function. The author examines long-debated theoretical and critical issues with their philosophical implications, as well as Woolf???s commitment to contemporary aesthetic theories and practices. The analytical core of the book is introduced by a historical survey of the interart relationship and significant critical theories, with a focus on the context of Modernism. The author makes use of three investigative tools: descriptive visuality, the widely debated notion of spatial form, and cognitive visuality. The cognitive and remedial value of Woolf???s visual and spatial strategies is demonstrated through an inter-textual analysis of To the Lighthouse, The Waves and Between the Acts (with cross-references to Woolf???s short stories and Jacob???s Room). The development of Woolf???s literary output is read in the light of a quest for unity, a formal attempt to restore parts to wholeness and to rescue Being from Nothingness

    Lo statuto dei simboli nella Vienna neoempirista. L'Organonmodell di Buehler rivisitato oggi

    No full text
    Se i contesti sono rilevanti nel comunicare, pronunciarsi sulla metafisica nelle attuali coordinate spazio-temporali può beneficiare dell’attenzione alla sede in cui ci si pronuncia e alla sua memoria storica. La ricezione italiana del neopositivismo passò in misura significativa per Milano, e vide in Geymonat e Rivetti Barbò due interlocutori attenti e critici. Il focus si sposta quindi a monte, su Vienna e sullo sviluppo di modelli assiomatici molto lontani tra loro: la fama del Circolo di Vienna ha lungamente sopravanzato quella dell’autore più filosofo del Circolo di Praga, Bühler, Ma la semiotica, o sematologia, è un terreno di confronto ineludibile per le due scuole. Attraverso la ricostruzione di convegni tra Praga, Vienna e Amburgo, viene discusso lo statuto dei simboli: al limite dell’asemanticità nei linguaggi formali, carichi invece di funzioni segniche diversificate nei costrutti del linguaggio naturale. Il dibattito antimetafisico va rimodellizzato, in conclusione, sulla base di una semantica bidimensionale e capace di restituire la natura dialogica dei conflitti.If contexts are relevant to communication, making pronouncements on metaphysics may benefit from a focus of attention on the location in which they are articulated and on its historical memory. The Italian reception of logical positivism makes a significant step in Milan where it finds two conscientious and critical representatives in Geymonat and Rivetti Barbò. The focus then moves upstream, on towards Vienna, and to the development of axiomatic models which are very different from each other. The fame of the Vienna Circle had long surpassed that of Bühler, the most philosophical Prague Circle author, however semiotics, or sematology, is an area of inevitable comparison between the two schools. Through the reconstruction of conferences in Prague, Vienna and Hamburg, the theoretical foundation of symbols is discussed – at the limit of asemanticity in formal languages it is, however, laden with diversified sign functions in the constructs of natural language. In conclusion, the anti-metaphysical debate must be remodelled on the basis of a two-dimensional semantics and be able to restore the dialogic nature of conflicts

    Anima mundi. Per una lettura ecopacifista di Virginia Woolf

    No full text
    This paper means to illustrate how Woolf’s macrotext can be read according to an ecopacifist perspective. By focussing first on the pacifism of Three Guineas and then by analysing the environmentalist contents that variously characterize her fiction (both short and long), I intend to shed light on the close relationship between Woolf’s interests in pacifism, feminism and nature as related to her deep sensitivity towards, and respect for, otherness and difference. Her works widely testify to her ecosystemic sensibility and thus encourage serious reflections on current and global issues about power dynamics related to society, politics, gender and the environment, which concurrently fosters a metanarrative consideration on author-ity

    Le latin de Thomas d’Aquin et l’intellectualisation de Havránek. Entre lexicographie computationnelle et histoire des idées sémiotiques

    No full text
    The paper aims to evaluate the semantic - terminological effect on the use of the Latin lexicon that are shaped by a particular author, given the complete documentation of the occurrences of his lemmata (Index Thomisticus), further supplied by on-going syntactic annotation, but nevertheless requiring proper, theoretically well-founded semantic analysis and lexicographic production. We propose linking the rich theoretical tradition which has produced the Prague Dependency Treebank (PDT) and the correlated Tectogrammatical Annotation (TGA) to the objectives of the Bicultural Thomistic Lexicon (LTB). To do this, we will examine and discuss Havránek’s contribution to the shaping of standard language, especially through the distinctive, creative procedure he calls intellectualisation. At the same time, we will outline the effect determined by the use – established in all its extensions – of an expression (lexical item or noun phrase). Given that the user – Thomas Aquinas – was an author who profoundly influenced subsequent thought, the creation or codification of a terminological value of the item will be investigated

    L’antico Cimitero Parrocchiale di Cassina Savina: Bene Culturale e Museo della memoria collettiva briantea.

    No full text
    Costruito a seguito del dibattito culturale e religioso-sanitario del XX secolo, il contenuto cimitero d Cassina Savina costituisce un’architettura esemplare di quel processo che interessò i piccoli centri della vasta terra briantea nell’Ottocento. Il saggio ne delinea, pertanto, le vicissitudini storiografiche ed edilizie dai suoi albori, sino a giungere alla definizione del progetto di cessazione delle sepolture e della costruzione di un nuovo camposanto in un’area poco discosta dalla primigenia. Il testo indugia sul quadro culturale di riferimento che condusse, negli anni immediatamente precedenti all’unità d’Italia, il letterato e politico Carlo Tenca a definire icasticamente i cimiteri come “città silenziose” sorte vicino alle “città viventi”. L’autore, inoltre, ricostruisce con dovizia di particolari le vicende edilizie del primo cimitero, rendendo anche possibile la ricostruzione di una geografia dei materiali da costruzione impiegati e delle aziende invitate a partecipare alla gara di appalto per l’esecuzione dei lavori.The ancient Parish Cemetery of Cassina Savina: Cultural Heritage and Museum of the collective memory of Brianza Built following the cultural and religious-health debate of the twentieth century, the contained cemetery of Cassina Savina constitutes an exemplary architecture of that process that affected the small towns of the vast land of Brianza in the nineteenth century. The essay therefore outlines the historiographical and building vicissitudes from its beginnings, up to the definition of the project for the cessation of burials and the construction of a new cemetery in an area not far from the original one. The text lingers on the cultural reference framework that led, in the years immediately preceding the unification of Italy, the writer and politician Carlo Tenca to icastically define the cemeteries as «silent cities» which arose close to «living cities». The author also reconstructs in great detail the building events of the first cemetery, also making it possible to reconstruct a geography of the building materials used and the companies invited to participate in the tender for the execution of the works

    The Amount of Data Required to Recognize a Writer’s Style Is Consistent Across Different Languages of the World

    No full text
    In this paper, we apply an information-theoretic method proposed by Ryabko and Savina (therefore called the RS-method), based on the use of data compression, to recognize the individual author’s style of a writer across four languages from different language groups and families. In this paper, the presented method was used to study fiction texts in Russian (East Slavic group of languages of the Indo-European language family), Amharic (South Ethiosemitic group of the Semitic language family), Chinese (Sinitic group of the Sino-Tibetan language family) and English (West Germanic language group of the Indo-European language family). It was found that the amount of data necessary for recognizing an author’s style is almost the same for all four languages, i.e., the amount of data is invariant across different language groups. The results obtained are of interest to computer science, literary studies, linguistics and, in particular, computational linguistics

Karazin Kharkov National University, Ukraine Abstract Purpose – identification of clinical variants and mechanisms for the formation of family health disorders in women with different addictive status, to identify further targets of psychocorrection. Contingent and methods. Through clinical psychological and psychodiagnostics methods, 371 married couple who applied for help from the violation of family relationships were examined. Among them 321 families, were manifestations of addictive behavior (AB) in women (IG1), while the other 50 families – normative indicators AB in women (IG2). As a comparison group (CG) examined 50 relatively harmonious families. Results. Two options family health disorders in families, depending on the presence / absence of women socially acceptable forms of AB, were singled out. At first, stress-destructive, version, observed the couple IG2, there were pathologically congruent continuous infringement of becoming the family at all stages and phases of its development, with a rod lesions psychological and socio-psychological and lesions social components, and a burden in the form of biological component of mental health component that supported and strengthened existing distress. The interaction of these factors on a "vicious circle" induced development of each other, thus creating a chain of negative impacts. For the other, addictive-pseudocompensation, option (spouse IG1) was characterized of one-vector-inconsistent mosaic abuse formation of family processes with rod defeat of the psychological component of family health, influence of socio-psychological and social components, and violations of mental component of the biological component as AB in women, which became a pathological pseudocompensation way of leveling and emotional stress and perform buffer function on the level of its severity. Conclusion. The data were assigned us a basis for developing the psychological treatment and support family health of women in AB.

Karazin Kharkov National University, Ukraine [email protected] Summary Objective – to study family functioning and adaptation in married couples with violation of family health and different women’s addictive status, to identify further targets of psychocorrection. Contingent and methods. Through clinical psychological and psychodiagnostics methods, 371 married couple who applied for help from the violation of family relationships were examined. Among them 321 families, were manifestations of addictive behavior (AB) in women (IG1), while the other 50 families – normative indicators AB in women (IG2). As a comparison group (CG) examined 50 relatively harmonious families. Results. Married couples of CG demonstrated the success of family functioning and high adaptation with adapted type of marriage. For married couples of IG1 was inherent mutual assessment of family functioning of the breach at medium severity, and a moderate decrease in adaptation of the prevalence of inconsistent type of marriage. In contrast, married couples of IG2 established pathological congruence failure of both spouses functions related to violation of family functioning high-level expression, and a significant reduction in adapting to the formation of maladaptive type of marriage. We can assume that the AB, found in women from families with moderate marital conflict, middle-failure of family functions and inconsistent type of marriage, became a way of leveling emotional stress that arise due to non-receipt of family feeling shelter and psychological support, and reduced the level of severity. In contrast, women without AB, current negative psychoemotional frustration background implemented within the family, thus creating a higher level of marital conflict, causing high levels of destruction of family functioning and formation of maladaptive type of marriage. Conclusion. The data were assigned us a basis for developing the psychological treatment and support family health of women in AB. Key words: family’s functioning, family’s adaptation, women, addictive behavior, couple
