Warum Piero Terracina sein Schweigen brach
No full textPiero Terracina wurde mit 14 Jahren von Rom nach Auschwitz deportiert, wo man seine gesamte Familie ermordete. Erst 1992 begann er, seine Geschichte zu erzählen, ist seither jedoch unermüdlich als Zeitzeuge unterwegs und in Italien längst eine Institution. Dieses Buch, das seine Geschichte und Reaktionen auf seine Tätigkeit mit interdisziplinären Texten zur Problematik der Shoah verknüpft, soll ihn einem deutschen Publikum bekannter werden lassen
Qualitative behavior of the two-phase entropy solution of a forward-backward parabolic problem
No full textWe discuss some qualitative aspects of a forward-backward parabolic problem that has been introduced in [L. C. Evans and M. Portilheiro, Math. Models Methods Appl. Sci., 14 (2004), pp. 1599-1620], [C. Mascia, A. Terracina, and A. Tesei, Evolution of stable phases in forwardbackward parabolic equations, in Asymptotic Analysis and Singularities, Mathematical Society of Japan, Tokyo, 2007, pp. 451-478] and further analyzed in [C. Mascia, A. Terracina, and A. Tesei, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 194 (2009), pp. 887-925]. This problem arises in models of phase transition in which two stable phases are separated by an interface. In particular, we consider here the problem of the extension in time of the solution constructed in [C. Mascia, A. Terracina, and A. Tesei, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 194 (2009), pp. 887-925]. We analyze the regularity of the solution u defined in a domain R × (0, T) and give an estimate, depending on the initial datum, of the number of convex regions of the function u(·, t) for every t ε (0, T).

A Forgotten Bestselling Author: Laura Terracina in Early Modern Naples
No full textThis dissertation provides a critical assessment of Laura Terracina (1519-c.1577) and her works. It argues that she was a consummate product of her age, embodying the tensions which ruled the Italian peninsula. Terracina published eight books and left a ninth in manuscript at the time of her death, winning legions of admirers and making her sixteenth-century Italy’s most commercially successful female author. Yet in spite of her enormous popularity amongst her contemporaries, scholarship has largely neglected Terracina. This dissertation will open up an overdue field of enquiry into her life and works, exploring the significance of her role as a sixteenth-century female poet through the lenses of gender and class. By mapping her place in the literary landscape, it is hoped that this thesis will encourage scholars to afford Terracina the attention she so richly deserves.
The first chapter of the dissertation situates Terracina as a poet of Naples, seeing her as a product of her family’s political standing within the city, her academician status, and her own construction of an urban coterie of supporters. The second chapter considers the mechanics of the journey into print, assessing Terracina’s own input and her close collaboration with male editors and publishers. It proposes a greater attribution of agency to Terracina than has thus far been made, arguing that she is, in fact, an important figure in the process of her texts reaching the hands of readers. The third chapter considers how the poet used her printed books as social tools, employing them to gain social and literary capital.
The second section of the dissertation looks at two thematic strands within Terracina’s poetry. Chapter four considers her political poetry, including her attitude towards the harm done to civilian populations across Europe. Chapter five looks at the religious dimension to Terracina’s work, the spiritual poetry written in her later years, and the relationship this bears to her secular lyric. Finally, the dissertation concludes with a chapter on the contemporary reception of Terracina’s texts, providing preliminary thoughts on how she was read, before closing with a consideration of her literary afterlife in the centuries that followed

No full textInvestigating Reddit to detect subreddit and author stereotypes and to evaluate author assortativity
No full textIn recent years, Reddit has attracted the interest of many researchers due to its popularity all over the world. In this article, we aim at providing a contribution to the knowledge of this social network by investigating three of its aspects, interesting from the scientific viewpoint, and, at the same time, by analysing a large number of applications. In particular, we first propose a definition and an analysis of several stereotypes of both subreddits and authors. This analysis is coupled with the definition of three possible orthogonal taxonomies that help us to classify stereotypes in an appropriate way. Then, we investigate the possible existence of author assortativity in this social medium; specifically, we focus on co-posters, that is, authors who submitted posts on the same subreddit
