Interarts - mimetic hypertextuality between rewritings and allographic continuity

The last decades have seen an increase in the number of publications concerned with the theme of trans-textuality, meaning the conscious reuse of themes and subjects. A widespread practice during the seventeenth and eighteenth century, trans-textuality was interrupted during the Romantic age only to be relentlessly resumed until becoming, today, a real trend in literature and other arts, overlapping genres and artistic expressions.

Scrivere il/in confino

Scritture femminili del Novecento Europeo

In un momento in cui i flussi migratori ci interpellano sempre più e in un’ottica sempre meno nazionale e sempre più europea, e in cui la categoria di frontiera è in via di profonda ridefinizione, il pensiero di coloro che hanno conosciuto/raccontato l’esilio è un supporto prezioso alle nostre riflessioni più attuali. I Club Soroptimist International di Messina e di Spadafora Gallo-Niceto organizzano un Convegno sulla Letteratura femminile del Novecento Europeo sul tema dell’Esilio. Gli interventi che si succederanno andranno ad abbracciare: l’esperienza esistenziale di autrici di testi letterari di qualsiasi genere che hanno vissuto in prima personale la fuga e il confino, attraverso i loro scritti personali e autobiografici; le storie di finzione (romanzi, poesie, racconti, radiodrammi, …) pubblicate da autrici che hanno affrontato tali tematiche senza per questo aver vissuto necessariamente sulla propria pelle l’erranza e l’estradizione.

The social responsability of journalists

Comunicazionepuntodoc journal (December 2016)

Ce dossier spécial de Comunicazionepuntodoc, se propose comme un moment de réflexion collective et transnationale sur les tentatives de réaffirmation du rôle des journalistes en général dans les démocraties modernes... Il ne s’agit donc pas de faire une étude sur le traitement médiatique de la diversité, ou d’engager la profession dans une posture militante qui consisterait à promouvoir cette question de la diversité, mais bien d’interroger et de comprendre l’exercice de la profession de journaliste dans cette configuration particulière et ainsi répondre aux défis de nos sociétés contemporaines.

Between home, family and business

Unpaid family and work obligations for the market from the end of the Middle Ages to the contemporary era

Ce colloque constitue une occasion de bilan des débats et d’approfondissement des nouvelles pistes thématiques ouvertes lors des rencontres précédentes du programme « Travail en famille, travail non rémunéré. Formes et acteurs du travail domestique productif en Europe (XV^e-XXI^e siècle) ». Le colloque portera, en premier lieu, sur les obligations légales, familiales et plus largement sociales liées aux activités marchandes effectuées par les membres de la famille dans la sphère domestique. En deuxième lieu, il a pour but de donner des aperçus qualitatifs et quantitatifs sur les retombées matérielles et immatérielles des multiples formes du travail en famille non rémunéré pour le marché. La dimension domestique ou extra-domestique des activités exercées par les différents membres de la famille sera analysée en fonction de leur caractère marchand et des différentes formes de leur (éventuelle) rémunération. La frontière entre prestations dues et travail impliquant une rétribution est cependant loin d’être nette et définie, ce que les débats autour du concept même de travail et de salaire, pour les époques anciennes comme pour celles contemporaines, montrent efficacement.

Facts and Values in Aesthetics: Contemporary Stakes and Approaches

In a text entitled The Collapse of the Fact/Value Dichotomy and Other Essays (2004), Hilary Putnam argues convincingly against a classic opposition which does not serve philosophical reflection positively. Putnam’s analysis mostly focuses on the theory and practice of knowledge, but one can legitimately extend it to other fields, starting with that of aesthetics, which sooner or later is confronted with the question of whether one defends or rejects the dichotomy. Keeping or rejecting it implies reasons to do so, but often these reasons remain implicit, most especially in aesthetics.

States in Crisis

Society for the Advancement of Socio-Economics – University of Milan 2013

The 2013 conference theme, "States in Crisis," is an opportunity to ask and answer a broad range of questions about the contemporary state, from its role in and reactions to economic and fiscal crises to the way in which its contours have or have not adapted and changed in concert with the modern economy to its place as a bulwark against or a catalyst for the construction of more market-driven societies. Within the well-established remit of SASE, participants are invited to submit theoretical and empirical contributions, at multiple levels of analysis from the local to the global, drawing from multi-disciplinary socio-economic frameworks.

The religious experience of the "disease of the soul" and its definitions in the early modern period: censorship, dissent and self-representation

The seminar aims at exploring the different meanings of the term "melancholy" in early modern religion, both Protestant and Catholic. One of its main purposes will be to enquire into, clarify, and emphasize both elements of continuity and what was specific to each of the diverse discourses on melancholy within the historical, socio-cultural, political, geographical and linguistic contexts that framed its production.
