ABSTRACT - In the mid-nineteenth century, Genoa had a very lively musical life which shared the prevailing romantic climate in Europe and Italy In this cultural context the figure of Carlo Andrea ...Gambini (1819-1865) stands out. A comparison of the French text and its Italian translation highlights several variants, not devoid of ideological implications regarding the historical image of Columbus, which was and still is highly controversial. 1. Ieri sera adunque radunai una cinquantina di amici e di intelligent! fra" quali contavansi alcuni maestri e si eseguirono cinque pezzi delľ opera il Colombo. Questi pezzi erano i due finali, duc duetti, ľ aria del soprano con cori.15 Un accurata recensione della soirée usci alcuni giorni dopo sulľ«Espero» firmata dalla competente penna delľamico Giuseppe Novella: Il largo e la stretta del finale primo con cori, ľ aria del soprano pure con cori, il duetto a soprano e basso e il gran concertato finale secondo, furono i pezzi del dr amma suddetto che il Gambini offerse al giudizio, o per dir meglio alľammirazione de" dotti nelľarte, i quali unanimi resero giustizia al merito del giovane compositore ammirando sovrattutto la novità e sublimità de' concetti di cui è sfarzosamente cosparsa la sua musica molto ben servita dalla ricchezza e dalla robustezza deli'armonia, la quale si sarebbe viemmaggiormente gustata se invece delľaccompagnamento del solo piano-forte ci fosse stato possibile il sentirla eseguita da una buona e ben regolata orchestra... Persone intelligent! che hanno udito il lavoro assicurano che sará di molto effetto avendo ľ autore acconciamente introdotto nella Marcia alcuni Trio, uno alla spagnuola (Tempo di Bolero), ľaltro alľlndiana, accompagnato da Campanelli o sistri, ed il terzo

Il contributo indaga un particolare aspetto del concetto di confine relativamente al mondo femminile romano: per le donne romane il limen, la soglia della loro dimora, è idealmente e culturalmente il ...loro limes, il confine oltre il quale la loro azione non può più essere libera, ma è controllata secondo canoni etici precisi che impediscono alle donne di partecipare alla vita politica oppure di muoversi liberamente al di fuori dell'Urbs. Attraverso l'analisi di testi letterari, scelti tra l'età repubblicana e augustea e oltre, si individuano locuzioni come limen, domi, intra vs. extra, ultra che marcano con tutta evidenza questa marginalità imposta dal mos maiorum. La trasgressione di questi limiti implica un abdicare ai valori-guida tradizionali femminili, come la modestia e la pudicizia e quindi incrina l'onore femminile, per cui in conclusione si analizza a fondo l'esemplare caso-limite di Giulia maggiore esiliata dal padre Augusto per un'accusa di comportamento immorale.
Begging, thought to be an inherently un-Swedish phenomenon, became
a national fixture in the 2010s as homeless Romanian and Bulgarian
Roma EU citizens arrived in Sweden seeking economic opportunity.
...People without shelter were forced to use public spaces as their
private space, disturbing aesthetic and normative orders, creating
anxiety among Swedish subjects and resulting in hate crimes and
everyday racism. Parallel with Europe's refugee crisis in the
2010s, the "begging question" peaked. The presence of the media's
so-called EU migrants caused a crisis in Swedish society along
political, juridical, moral, and social lines due to the
contradiction embodied in the Swedish authorities' denial of social
support to them while simultaneously seeking to maintain the
nation's image as promoting welfare, equality, and antiracism. In
The Begging Question Erik Hansson argues that the material
configurations of capitalism and class society are not only
racialized but also unconsciously invested with collective
anxieties and desires. By focusing on Swedish society's response to
the begging question, Hansson provides insight into the dialectics
of racism. He shrewdly deploys Marxian economics and Lacanian
psychoanalysis to explain how it became possible to do what once
was thought impossible: criminalize begging and make fascism
politically mainstream, in Sweden. What Hansson reveals is not just
an insight into one of the most captivating countries on earth but
also a timely glimpse into what it means to be human.
In the context of the research on learning and teaching Romani language in Serbia, this paper offers an analytical look at the relation between Romani pupils and Romani language at school. It then ...attempts to identify the tensions that derive from Romani standard language and pupils Romani language in order to highlight their impact on didactic choices adopted in class. The choices are based on the recognition and validation of pupils Romani language, but exclude or marginalize Romani standard language. Thus, Romani standard teaching and learning is now in question. The article is based on the analyses of Romani class observations and the comprehensive interviews carried out with Romani pupils (ten group interviews) and Romani teacher in a primary school in Serbia.
The author writes about growing up with her complex and enigmatic immigrant father, who lived many years as a stigmatized other, a Russian Jew in northern China. She focuses on the impact this ...personal family history has on her treatment with a female Romani patient from Eastern Europe, a more recent immigrant, who also lived many years as a stigmatized other. The author differentiates between the experience of one-time immigrants and migrants, the latter being haunted by generations of dislocation, which causes them to question their fundamental sense of safety and belonging. The author discusses the ways the personal and professional threads become interwoven in the work, impacting the bi-directional conscious and unconscious flow of the treatment. Together patient and analyst build toward a mutually transformative moment, following a clinical impasse.

Abstract The present paper investigates the reduction of gender assignment and agreement in a nineteenth-century Romani variety in contact with genderless Hungarian. This reduction took place within ...two generations of native speakers. We compare the geographical and sociolinguistic situation with the majority of present-day Romani varieties, which still maintain the original two-way (masculine, feminine) gender system. By comparing these varieties with the few Romani varieties which also display reduction of their gender system, we show that the development of this particular typological change may be the outcome of the minority situation of Romani and its geographical proximity to a genderless language. However, as rural varieties do not exhibit the same kind of erosion, this is not a sufficient explanation; what also appears to play a role in the Romani case is the urban context of the change. This sociolinguistic factor might also be considered in other case studies on the loss of grammatical gender.
This article presents a close reading of the Romani characters and their actions in five stories by Viennese Romani writer and activist Samuel Mago and in two stories by his brother, Hungarian ...award-winning journalist Károly Mágó, in their bilingual Romani and German collection glücksmacher – e baxt romani. Brief biographies and an outline of the history of Roma and antiziganism in Austria provide background to textual analysis that focuses on how characters in the stories engender baxt/“Glück,” which means both happiness and luck. This dual meaning has inspired philosophical, psychological, economic, and anthropological studies, but literary scholars have rarely examined the concept in texts by Roma. For the protagonists in the brothers’ stories, happiness and luck become based less on monetary fortunes than on other means to live and survive in dark times of persecution and discrimination. The characters’ decisions unveil perceptions of baxt that rely largely on acquiring food, preserving and passing down family heirlooms, receiving an education, and freeing oneself and one’s family from persecution.

Although intergroup friendships have been shown to reduce prejudice, little research has considered whether interventions fostering intergroup friendship would be effective in highly prejudicial ...contexts. We conducted a quasi‐experiment (N = 61) to test whether a contact‐based intervention based on intergroup friendship could reduce bias against Roma people among non‐Roma Hungarians. Participants in the contact condition engaged in a face‐to‐face interaction with a Roma person, and responded to questions involving mutual self‐disclosure. Through pre‐ and post‐test questionnaires, we observed significant positive change in attitudes and contact intentions among participants in the contact condition, while these effects were not observed among participants in the control condition. Positive change was moderated by perceived institutional norms, which corroborates the potential of contact‐based interventions.
