This paper focuses on the papermaking inventions that, beginning with the Flemish physician Andreas Vesalius' De humani corporis fabrica (1543), became part of anatomy books. In particular, flaps became the tactile and visual tool that allowed, by progressively lifting individual flaps of paper (lift the flap), to represent the layered arrangement of organs and apparatuses of the human body. These movable devices, along with others (e.g., volvelle) widely employed especially in astronomy texts, became the educational complements of the new science. The paper reconstructs, through some significant samples, the evolution of interactive anatomical books up to the threshold of the 20th century. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article focuses on the historic research papers found from the Istituto di economia e politica mondiale di Mosca between 1935-1938. Various topics discussed in these research papers include historiography of Second World War, terror during the leadership of Soviet politician Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin and its influence on world economy.

This paper explores the presence of phraseological expressions in Alfredo Panzini's Dizionario Moderno, considering the first edition (1905) and the last edition edited by the author (1935). The rich phraseological variety of the dictionary reveals itself in various aspects: spoken and dialectal language, literary quotations, co-presence of various modern and ancient languages, specialist languages in their relationship with the common language. In the last paragraph, the essay analyses the role of phraseology in the light of Panzini's linguistic ideas: according to the author, phraseological expressions are a vital and fundamental element of every language. Their presence in the Dizionario Moderno thus shows Panzini's attention to the evolution of the Italian language in the first decades of the 20th century. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper attempts to reflect on the socio-legal dynamics affecting the Algerian nomadic society, with particular reference to the period between 1830 and 1960. Algeria, which has been affected at the institutional and formal level by a decisive wave of re-Islamization since the second half of the eighties of the twentieth century, has not completely left behind its rich history of linguistic, cultural, religious and legal pluralism. In addition to the kaleidoscopic complexity of its substrate and heritage, it still carries within itself a significant minority of the population that has not abandoned the condition of nomadism. At a time when migratory flows pose questions such as that of polyethnic and multi-contextual rights to the Europe of jurists, and doctrine questions the operational possibilities of an orderly pluralism (mainly as a result of the partial decline of sovereignty under the lash of the repercussions of the economy), while legal practice is unfolding in new directions, such as that of automation, the law seems to be put to the test by two sets of questions: the erosion and redrawing of geographical boundaries that determine its effectiveness on the one hand, and the unpredictable possibilities freed up by the global non-place of virtual and market negotiations on the other. Speed, movement, wars, and the instability of effective boundaries seem to be the new stumbling blocks brought about by globalization, and the uncertainty of possible solutions is almost frightening; Studying the regulatory dimension of Algerian nomads reveals ancestral solutions whose functional capacity is not undermined by the perennial change of territories, landscapes, alliances - solutions that are not immediately expendable in the contemporary world, but which constitute significant food for thought.

Among the various relationships Leonardo Sciascia cultivated with Italian publishers, his connection with the Laterza publishing house in Bari stands out, notably due to its association with the publication of his initial venture into prose writing: Le parrocchie di Regalpetra. Drawing from this relationship, which has been recently documented through the publication of correspondence between Vito Laterza and Sciascia, my paper delves into the meticulous exchange between author and publisher. Specifically, it focuses on the editorial evolution of the work, examining various paratextual elements, ranging from the toponym chosen to signify the title, to the alignment of the title with the cover's iconography, and the overall layout of the mise en page.

This paper discusses how to widen the boundaries of an existing World Heritage Site to include the heritage of the 20th century. The work by Giancarlo De Carlo in Urbino is a perfect case study since modern architecture enriches the set of values where the statement of OUV was based. Urbino undertook a process of urban rebirth in the second half of the 20th century, according to De Carlo's master plan, which promoted a harmonic continuity between modern architecture and the preservation of the historic city. As a result, the Historic Centre of Urbino was enlisted in 1988 as an outstanding example of Renaissance capital. Although the statement of OUV did not mention De Carlo's work, the site's management plan (2012-14) suggests widening the buffer zone to include modern buildings. The authors wonder how to promote such updating of the WHS towards the recent past, something that seems not to have precedent examples in the WHL. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses the Association of Amateurs of Photography in Rome (founded in 1888 and active until about 1922) and its Bulletin (published between May 1889 and February 1896). Similarly to other societies and periodicals abroad, both played a significant role in the modernization of Italian photographic culture at the turn of the 20th century. Based on contemporary bibliographic sources, the paper reconstructs the Association’s genesis, goals and organization, as well as the Bulletin’s importance for the dissemination of technical information and new ideas about the medium.

The strong processes of economic repositioning that the West experienced in the last decades of the 20th century with the transition from the industrial economy to the so-called "enrichment economy" led to the emergence of new project themes within the territorial disciplines. The decommissioning of large industrial areas is seen by the design culture as an opportunity to re-found cities through new policies and new design devices. The case of Turin is exemplary of this process in Italy. A city that symbolises Italian Fordism, from the 1980s onwards it was invested by an incremental process of large industrial areas abandonment due to the crisis of mass production. This paper aims to discuss how, after the end of the first post-Fordist cycle, decommissioned spaces accommodate not only residential or tertiary practices as in the thirty-year neoliberal era, but also new productive functions. It does so with a descriptive approach, recounting the change in Turin's production system and describing three exemplary cases of the new productive Turin: the new Pirelli in Settimo Torinese, Lavazza and the new Manufacturing Centre in Mirafiori. In this process we seem to be able to discern a paradigm shift in the design of the contemporary city, which does not deny but welcomes productive practices. However, this new model of the productive city in the West urgently needs to redefine visions, imaginaries and practices of the contemporary project. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper aims to present the results of a comprehensive study conducted on the northern and western facades of the church of San Nicolò dei Mendicoli in Venice. Historically situated on the outskirts of the city, this building has recently garnered renewed scientific attention. The investigation employed a method developed in previous scholarly research, which combines the stratigraphic analysis of the elevations with mensiochronology, assessment of masonry material and constructive attributes, examination of indirect sources, and comparative analysis with previously published case studies. Consequently, five construction phases dating from the 12th-13th centuries to the 20th century have been identified. The research has achieved a double result: not only was it possible to link each architectural transformation to the church's community history, but it also could become a useful case study for the analysis of other Venetian buildings.

The paper reflects on the training potential of football - addressing both professional and youth activities - and investigates the way in which the media have represented (during the 20th century) and represent (today) soccer, emphasizing how narratives and discourses about soccer produce both formative potentials as much as troubling outcomes that can overshadow the authentic values of the sport. The task of pedagogy is precisely to highlight the risks and opportunities of these representations and to promote, in all the actors involved, active attitudes to ensure that football, even today, can create opportunities to promote self-care, of the other and of the world.

This paper presents the alternating relationship between labour sociology and labour law from the 20th century to the present day. It reconstructs the original separateness of the two disciplines, then the intense dialogue between sociologists and labour lawyers in the 1960s and 1970s, then again the divide during the so-called 'post-Fordist' transition. Finally, the main themes of discussion between sociology and labour law today are illustrated, introducing the contributions collected in the monographic section. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Making sense of the spectacular performance of postwar Japanese economy is one of the central issues in Japanese contemporary history. Recently, economic and business historians are debating on the role of the colonial experience in respect of the Japanese postwar economic boom. In the light of this new issue, the analysis of life histories of Japanese commoners who migrated in the colonies is gaining relevance. This paper attempts to contribute to this debate focusing on 69 Japanese who lived Fushun in the first four decades of the 20th Century. Fushun, the "city of coil" of Manchukuo, was a medium-sized company town created by the South Manchurian Railway Company around the local coil mines. The main source of the paper is the biographical annals of notable Japanese people in Manchuria (Manshū shinshiroku), recently collected in a volume by Takenaka Shin'ichi. The evidence gathered for this contribution suggests that Fushun was as a city quite selective towards highly skilled Japanese migrants, and that not a few people had the chance to collect professional experience in Fushun, which could have been an important asset after the war. My analysis was focused on a small sample of male self-employed, employed in small firms, or public servants in Fushun. I plan to extend this survey in a new article considering also a sample of the numerous Railway Company employees in the same city. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The paper attempts to grasp the normative tools with which the catholic church, throughout history, has imagined to cope with the issue of pedophilia among its members. The institution’s responses to the violation of the sixth commandment made use of penal and corrective measures which, although proven since time immemorial, have been visibly ineffective, or incredibly effective if we consider the ability to stifle the clamor of the phenomenon for so long. The paper focuses on especially the measure of fraternal correction which appears in the Gospel and became a specific issue in Augustine and Thomas Aquinas until the post-tridentine era. The analysis of certain texts of the curia from the beginning of the twentieth century to the present day suggests that fraternal correction was the predominantly practiced expedient to avoid the trial against clerics accused of sexual abuse.

The paper examines the connections of arts, literature and Romance philology during the cultural transition between 19th and 20th centuries – namely between the late Romanticism and the rise of ‘realist’ and ‘symbolist’ trends. In particular, the paper observes the development of the Roman culture – Gabriele D’Annunzio, Ernesto Monaci, Giulio Aristide Sartorio and Duilio Cambellotti – and its elaboration of a ‘Romanesque symbolism’.

For about a decade now, the historiography of emotions has developed spectacularly, though with mixed outcomes. This paper will assess the main research orientations that have shaped this history. It will provide a first critical account of the main works in the field. To do so, we will begin by highlighting the often implicit tensions and the various debates that have erupted around the history of emotions. Among the contentious historical approaches to the study of emotions, we will focus on the so-called tensions between nature and culture, language and experience, the individual and the collective. Starting from an essentially nineteenth/twentieth century historiography, this paper aims to go beyond just a history of emotions as a research topic. Instead, it seeks to seize emotions more broadly as a category of cross-analysis that allows historians to reach and study all aspects of social life. In this regard, emotions can be analyzed both through their own historicity and through the agency of the social actors. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The essay traces the fundamental stages of Antonio Negri’s thought, referring to the developments and the debate of the 1970s about the problem of law and state. For Italian Workerism, the twenty years spanning from the beginning of the 1960s to the end of the 1970s represented a historical turning point with regard to the relationship between capital and work. These intellectuals elaborated the fundamental thesis of Italian Workerism, according to which it is under the pressure of struggles that capital requires continuous reconfiguration in order to survive. In some historical passages of the twentieth century, Negri recognised a crisis of the role of the state. Hence, this is no longer understood as a planner of capitalist development, but rather as a capitalist tool to induce crisis and control over the factory-society. In this paper, we shall analyse such a debate by retracing its key points. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper investigates the collection of fifty love letters that a Vienna codex, which dates from the 12th to 13th century and was discovered in the "Terra d'Otranto", attributes to an author conventionally identified by the name Aristaenetus. Almost two centuries after the historic commentary of Boissonade (1822) and despite the care of authoritative twentieth-century scholars - the most notable being Albin Lesky and William Geoffrey Arnott - numerous questions remain unanswered. In particular, the validity of the Vienna manuscript's attribution of authorship to Aristaenetus; the historical-literary identity of the author; and the dating of the collection.

For the first time, in this paper, the topic of the relationship between Polish rap music and literature, which is actually very strong, is compared. Immediately after the fall of communism (1989) poetry stopped being seen as a primary necessity good in Poland, but the role of literature (literaturocentryzm) is still very important and maintains central itself also in the frame of rap and youth (sub)cultures. There are several ways Polish rap uses literature and poetry within its tracks, the simple recall to single authors and works, whole citations of poems, the direct or indirect quote of lines or sentences, i.e. follow up. Follow up is therefore a direct or indirect reference to another work, a typical component of intertextuality of rap. The first Polish rap singers and crews, such as Kaliber 44 and Paktofonika, all coming from Silesia, insert into their texts lots of references to Polish romanticism. The number "44" from the same name of the group, e.g., comes from Mickiewicz's Dziady. After the rapper Łona in 2004 uses Żeromski's szklane domy (glass houses) from the book Przedwiośnie (1924) in order to report the loneliness of contemporary human beings, the references to literature and poetry from the 20th century become more and more frequent. In 2008-2009 there were the publications of albums (Rymy częstochowskie, Poeci) entirely made of rap versions from famous poems, and follow up becomes something natural and necessary ("No rap without follow up" sings the Polish rapper Tede in his song Follow up, 2009). The most famous Polish rappers from these last years, Taco Hemingway and Mata, also share a common inclination towards contemporary poetry and literature, Polish or beyond. Taco's songs are often compared to lyrics from the Skamander movement, in particular from Tuwim's poems, whereas Mata moves between the holy Bible and Harry Potter. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper presents a synthesis of the most significant paths and problems of research in Italy, in the second half of the twentieth Century, seen through an autobiographical testimony. We speak of internal changes, due to the evolution of methodologies: the renewal of tools and methods, after the autarchic parenthesis of the first half of the Century; the intrusion of information technology into the organization and analysis of linguistic data; the openness to the problems of a rapidly changing society, with the sociolinguistic approach; the contrasts and mediations between structuralism and historicism. But we also speak, at the same time, of the brakes and conditioning to research by external factors, mainly attributable to a strong management of power and the consequent downsizing of the role of free research, accompanied by the deleterious subordination of research to logic of the market. Finally, the autobiographical perspective highlights the central role of Tullio De Mauro in the renewal of linguistics studies in Italy and in the stubborn persistence of a democratic and inclusive vision even in times of democratic crisis.

This paper presents an overall picture of the linguistic studies carried out at the Istituto di Glottologia of the University of Pisa, from the middle of the 20th century to the present day. Tristano Bolelli is regarded as the leading figure of the Pisan studies. He worked from an early age to develop linguistic research at the University of Pisa with an original and broad vision, and an eye toward the future. Bolelli taught three generations of linguists in Pisa, whose profiles are synthetically drawn here with reference to their main research areas. Over time, the Pisan linguistic studies have shown both continuity in the study of historical change in Indo-European languages together with the deepening of topics connected to the different theoretical frameworks which have recently emerged. Those who trained in Pisa, and have subsequently become University Professors, adopted Bolelli’s scientific approach, characterised by a great meth- odological rigour, a true hallmark of the Pisan linguistic studies. Additionally, the breadth of the Pisan scholars’ research fields clearly demonstrates the other distinctive feature of Linguistics in Pisa: great freedom in making choices. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

On 13rd October 2016 the Chiostergi-Tuscher archive and library, originating from the heirs' house located in France (Saint-Cergues Les Voirons), was transferred to the Centro cooperativo mazziniano "Pensiero e Azione" in Senigallia. The paper reports about how this remarkable heritage of Chiostergi-Tuscher was retrieved and returned to Italy after thirty years. The collection includes correspondences, letters, diaries, documents, journals and papers, pictures, books, posters and other archival and bibliographic materials of great historical value to learn about the political, civic and cultural activities of Giuseppe Chiostergi (1899-1961), anti-fascist, member of the Italian Constituent Assembly and of Parliament, ambassador, pro-European and statesman, friend and correspondent to leading Italian and European personalities in the 20th century.

The theatrical and narrative production of Pier Maria Rosso di San Secondo stretches for about forty years between the first and fifth decade of the twentieth century. They were years of transition and redefinition of individual and social roles and spaces. The neuroses of many authors find in the theater the natural dimension in which to represent feelings of guilt and pain, of the shattering of subjectivity and of loss of reference points. Pier Maria Rosso di San Secondo, son of sunny and sulphur-bearing central Sicily, ranged from narrative to the theater and represents one of the most interesting Central European literary experiences. In this paper we analyze two plays composed and staged between 1918 and 1919: Marionette, che passione! and La bella addormentata. Although these have two very different settings, one bourgeois and the other the world of fable, the onomastic choices share the use of chromatism with an expressionist value. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The life of Alda Merini has always been connected with abandonment, reclusion, abuse, failure of motherhood: in one word, of that kind of loneliness, suffering and inexpressibility that could be called 'desolation'. The author analyses the construction of the subject in Merini's L'altra verità. Diario di una diversa: a diary, a reportage, but even a metaphor of the condition of the artist. The paper aims to show that desolation (as product of suffering, loneliness and inexpressibility), is a key element for the condition of the artist (and the subject itself) in 20th century. But it might be particularly a keyword for Alda Merini, marking her way to achieve a state of grace as a writer, and as a woman. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The critique of the concept of representation is a real leitmotiv within French philosophy of the second half of the twentieth century. In this paper, I go through the declination that it assumes in Gilles Deleuze's philosophy, paying particular attention to some texts of the '60s where it is developed in reference to the works of Gottfried Leibniz, the criticism of Immanuel Kant, and the thought of the post-Kantian philosopher Salomon Maimon. Finally, I underline how this critique leads to the development of a non-Freudian conception of the unconscious. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Women movement have long seemed little interested in law, and traditional legal scholars were little interested in gender studies.

In the early decades of the twentieth century, the affirmation of children's literature as a kind of popular entertainment was facilitated in Italy both through books that enjoyed a wide readership and through stories and novels published in episodes in magazines of the time. My paper, by means of significant examples, offers some reflections on the use of recurrent personal names and common onomastic strategies in various authors, also in the light of the great inspiring models of the late-nineteenth-century fantasy-adventure genre.

This paper aims to provide an overview of Antonin Artaud’s essayistic writing, especially that which deals with painting and painters (Paolo Uccello, Balthus, Van Gogh). Particular focus will be placed on Artaud’s attempt to present what he calls his personal «mental drama» (drame mental): a non-psychological and possibly non-representative way of dealing with identity. Such a goal can be reached both through Artaud’s projection into his topic’s body and through the rejection of his own one, so that the ambiguity between subjective and transindividual modes of utterance is kept unsolved.

The paper deals with the psychological category of 'affectivity' in the Romance linguistics between the 19th and the 20th century, using as a reference point Iorgu Iordan's Introduction to Romance Linguistics. Thanks to a great number of translations, the book had a remarkable fortune and can offer an interesting survey of the Romance linguistics of the 20th century. Particularly, the contribution focuses on Iordan's paragraph concerning the linguistic studies on affectivity. First, comparing the translations of Iordan's book, it investigates the different translations of 'affectivity', which, between the 19th and the 20th century, was a sort of technical term of the German-speaking Sprachpsychologie. Then, it studies the structure of Iordan's paragraph, showing how it mirrors the complexity of the concept of affectivity in the linguistics of the period, which was used and/or criticised by different linguistic schools (such as the linguistic Neoidealism and the Geneva School).
