Il politically correct è una forzatura? Una riflessione a partire da L’utilità del senso comune di Anna Maria Lorusso
The debate around political correctness is currently one of the predominant topics within the public discourse. More precisely, given that the conduct to which this term refers to has been a cause of social dispute since the 1980s, it would be more accurate to say that political correctness is an issue that has been inflaming the minds of the diverse and articulate fabric that is public opinion for about half a century. The aim of this review article is to sketch out a possible key to interpret this phenomenon, presenting the reader with the point of view expressed by the Italian semiologist Anna Maria Lorusso in her last book L’utilità del senso comune (2022)

La prova del filosofo: domandare inizialmente nell’epoca della finale determinazione tecnica
Starting from the general question “What is philosophy?”, and trying to answer it by
developing a thoughtful dialogue with Martin Heidegger, this article proposes to reflect upon
our original philosophical “gestures” and practice them. This may prove to be useful in order
to understand what are the real matters at issue for contemporary philosophers in the time of
the widespread diffusion in the whole world of the Western civilization determined by
technology

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
The 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
Variations on the Author
“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
