La romanizzazione del Veneto. Dinamiche di trasformazione culturale e sociale dai corredi funerari tardo lateniani con strumenti agro-pastorali
Full text linkEnA distinctive phenomenon of the La Tène culture in Northern Italy is the inclusion of tools primarily related to the agro-pastoral sphere in funerary assemblages. In Veneto, the Cenomani facies is strongly evident in the area around Verona and in the rural regions around Este. These contexts, dating from the 2nd century BC to the 1st century BC, clearly illustrate the process of Romanisation within these communities. Initially, the military component is prominent, but from the 1st century BC onwards, there is a shift towards representing the deceased in a "civilian" capacity. Black-glazed ceramics, coins, and from the Augustan age onwards, glass balsamaria start to appear. As the communities near Verona and Este underwent changes, there was a notable decrease in the presence of agro-pastoral tools. These tools are observed in limited quantities until the early 1st century AD, but with a likely ideological shift. Initially, their association with rich grave goods probably indicated control over agricultural production and thus a prominent status for the deceased. Later, these tools may have become more associated with the civilian life of the Roman citizen, in a region that had now officially become part of the Roman Empire.ItFenomeno peculiare della cultura La Tène dell'Italia settentrionale è la presenza di strumenti pertinenti principalmente alla sfera agro-pastorale nei corredi funerari. In Veneto la facies cenomane caratterizza fortemente il Veronese e le aree rurali attorno al centro di Este. Questi contesti, databili tra il II sec. a.C. e il I sec. a.C., mostrano chiaramente il processo di romanizzazione di queste comunità. Se inizialmente la componente militare risulta evidente, già dal I sec. a.C. si osserva una tendenza a rappresentare il defunto in veste "civile". Compaiono ceramiche a vernice nera, monete e, a partire dall'età augustea, balsamari in vetro. In una dinamica di cambiamento delle comunità dell'area veronese e della bassa padovana, si osserva una netta diminuzione della presenza degli attrezzi agro-pastorali. La loro seppur limitata presenza si osserva fino all'inizio del I sec. d.C., ma con un probabile cambio ideologico. Se dapprima la loro associazione a ricchi corredi doveva segnalare il controllo della produzione agricola e quindi una posizione di rilievo dei defunti, in seguito gli attrezzi appaiono forse ricollegati alla vita civile del cittadino romano, in una regione ormai ufficialmente entrata a far parte dei domini di Roma

No full textIl presente volume raccoglie gli Atti del Convegno di Studi dal titolo "Le lenti del passato. Approcci multiscalari all'archeologia", tenutosi a Padova dal 21 al 22 dicembre 2021 e organizzato dagli allievi della Scuola di Specializzazione in Beni Archeologici dell'Università di Padova con il sostegno del Dipartimento dei Beni Culturali. Raccoglie e organizza in quattro sezioni (Macroscala, Mesoscala, Scala di intransito, Microscala) queste ricerche, rappresentando non solo l'esito editoriale di una fruttuosa esperienza di confronto ma anche uno spunto per futuri incontri di studi che vedano come protagonisti gli allievi delle Scuole di Specializzazione italiane
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Lesioni traumatiche nelle popolazioni umane tra età del Rame ed età del Bronzo: la Tomba 31 di Nogarole Rocca (VR)
No full textEvidence of interpersonal violence occurs both directly, in the form of skeletal trauma, and indirectly, if reconstructed from
archaeological contexts, providing useful information on behavioral and cultural aspects of ancient human groups. The osteo-
logical remains of an adult male discovered in grave number 31 at Nogarole Rocca (Bronze Age - VR, Italy) provide us with
both information. The inhumation was associated with a bronze dagger blade but, most interestingly, a perimortal injury
resulting from a flint arrowhead was identified in his fourth thoracic vertebra, interpretable as proof of interpersonal violence.
This evidence increases the framework of knowledge about episodes of interpersonal conflict among Copper and Bronze Age
communities in northern Italy
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
