Although it would appear in studies of late antique ecclesiastical authority and power that scholars have covered everything, an important aspect of the urban bishop has long been neglected: his role ...as demonologist and exorcist. When the emperor Constantine made Christianity the official religion of the realm, bishops and priests everywhere struggled to "Christianize" the urban spaces still dominated by Greco-Roman monuments and festivals. During this period of upheaval, when congregants seemingly attended everything but their own "orthodox" church, many ecclesiastical leaders began simultaneously to promote aggressive and insidious depictions of the demonic. InCity of Demons,Dayna S. Kalleres investigates this developing discourse and the church-sponsored rituals that went along with it, showing how shifting ecclesiastical demonologies and evolving practices of exorcism profoundly shaped Christian life in the fourth century.
Actor, playwright and capocomico, Edoardo Ferravilla is the most original personality of Milanese dialect theatre and, in the comic repertoire, one of the greatest exponents of Italian scene between ...19th and 20th centuries. Creator of a series of lucky characters, such as Sûr Pedrin and Tecoppa, between 1872 and 1880 is a very prolific author.
It is a little known fact that as early as the thirteenth century, Europe's political and religious powers tried to physically mark and distinguish the Jews from the rest of society. During the ...Renaissance, Italian Jews first had to wear a yellow round badge on their chest, and then later, a yellow beret. The discriminatory marks were a widespread phenomenon with serious consequences for Jewish communities and their relations with Christians. Beginning with a sartorial study - how the Jews were marked on their clothing and what these marks meant - the book offers an in-depth analysis of anti-Jewish discrimination across three Italian city-states: Milan, Genoa, and Piedmont. Moving beyond Italy, it also examines the place of Jews and Jewry law in the increasingly interconnected world of Early Modern European politics.

Curata da Vittorio Gregotti e Umberto Eco, la Sezione introduttiva della XIII Triennale del 1964 dedicata al Tempo libero fu uno degli episodi figurativo-teatrali più significativi del fermento ...sperimentale che interessò l’Italia dei primi anni Sessanta. Architettura, letteratura, arti visive, cinema e musica convergevano – nel senso della tradizione modernista della Sintesi delle Arti – a creare una sorta di macchina narrativa integrale, chiamata ad affrontare tramite i canoni dell'opera aperta il tema dello svago. L’architettura si faceva così spazio performativo, coinvolgendo attivamente il pubblico, attore e spettatore allo stesso tempo. In questo che è il primo studio specificamente dedicato all’allestimento, l’autore ricostruisce il percorso espositivo della mostra per mettere in luce il dialogo che in queste sale intercorre tra il dibattito letterario del Gruppo 63, le avanguardie architettoniche europee, la Pop Art statunitense e gli ambienti spaziali di Lucio Fontana. Questo labirinto di specchi e illuminazioni al neon ha nell’immersività degli spazi uno dei tratti più distintivi, che l’autore interroga alla luce delle odierne estetiche transmediali (in ambito allestitivo, narrativo e teatrale), proponendo così una disamina innovativa circa il fenomeno e la rilevanza attuale della neoavanguardia italiana. Il volume ripropone inoltre per la prima volta alcuni testi di Umberto Eco, Vittorio Gregotti, Enrico Filippini e Gillo Dorfles relativi all’allestimento della XIII Triennale.
The presence of SARS-CoV-2 in raw wastewaters has been demonstrated in many countries affected by this pandemic. Nevertheless, virus presence and infectivity in treated wastewaters, but also in the ...receiving water bodies are still poorly investigated. In this study, raw and treated samples from three wastewater treatment plants, and three river samples within the Milano Metropolitan Area, Italy, were surveyed for SARS-CoV-2 RNA detection by means of real time RT-PCR and infectivity test on culture cells. SARS-CoV-2 RNA was detected in raw, but not in treated wastewaters (four and two samples, respectively, sampled in two dates). The isolated virus genome was sequenced, and belonged to the strain most spread in Europe and similar to another found in the same region. RNA presence in raw wastewater samples decreased after eight days, probably following the epidemiological trend estimated for the area. Virus infectivity was always null, indicating the natural decay of viral pathogenicity in time from emission. Samples from receiving rivers (three sites, sampled in the same dates as wastewaters) showed in some cases a positivity to real time RT-PCR, probably due to non-treated, or inefficiently treated discharges, or to the combined sewage overflows. Nevertheless, also for rivers infectivity was null. Risks for public health should be limited, although a precautionary approach to risk assessment is here advocated, giving the preliminary nature of the presented data.

•SARS-CoV-2 RNA presence and infectivity in wastewaters and receptors was assessed.•Viral RNA was detectable in the inflow but not in the outflow wastewaters.•Viral RNA was present in receptors due to sewage overflows or inefficient treatment.•SARS-CoV-2 infectivity was null both in wastewaters and receptors.•A precautionary approach in the assessment of contagious risk is advocated.
Il perimetro geografico entro cui sono ambientate le novelle degli Ecatommiti è molto esteso, eppure circa i due terzi dei racconti hanno per cornice la penisola italiana. Due novelle consecutive e ...affini narrano vicende che si svolgono a Milano agli inizi del Cinquecento, all’epoca di Gian Giacomo Trivulzio (V 4 e 5). Sono esempi di fedeltà coniugale articolati sull’espediente narrativo comune della fuga di un prigioniero per mezzo di uno scambio di persona. Il saggio analizza le fonti di questo motivo e le pone in confronto con la versione di Giraldi, per mostrare le caratteristiche e i significati implicati nella rappresentazione di Milano all’interno del novelliere. The geographic setting of the Ecatommiti outlines a very wide perimeter. Nevertheless, about two thirds of the tales are set in the Italian peninsula. Two consecutive and related tales narrate events taking place in Milan at the beginning of the Sixteenth Century, at the time of Gian Giacomo Trivulzio (V 4 and 5). They are examples of marital fidelity based on the common narrative means of the escape of a prisoner changing clothes with a helper. The essay analyzes the sources of that theme and compares them with Giraldi’s tales. Its aim is to show the characteristics and meanings of Milan’s representation within the book.
This essay looks closely at testimonials posted to Twitter as part of the viral #MeToo movement in October 2017. It examines a testimonial imperative at work in the movement, a driving need and a ...feeling of responsibility for survivors to come forward and join others who are speaking to share, to bear witness, and to listen to each other. The #MeToo movement has been described as a collective autobiography, but what we also see when we read #MeToo testimonial tweets is that many survivors posted, replied, and quote-tweeted in ways that highlight their individual experiences and their individual selves. By reading closely a number of tweets, this essay unearths important themes, strategies, and forged connections that emerged within this online autobiographical movement.

Neste artigo, propõe-se uma reflexão a respeito das relações entre natureza e sociedade a partir da leitura de poemas selecionados de Poesias, de Dante Milano (1979), especialmente da peça ‘Jardim ...público’. Assumindo como referência a crítica à racionalidade moderna formulada por Adorno e Horkheimer (1985), segundo a qual a razão esclarecida procurou desencantar o mundo, dominando e subjugando o supostamente ameaçador mundo natural, procura-se meditar de que maneira em uma obra produzida por um poeta moderno/modernista brasileiro (de uma modernidade incompleta e periférica) essa crítica é particularizada. Para tanto, além dos autores da Teoria Crítica, fundamentam o estudo autores como Ulpiano Meneses, Octavio Paz, Jeanne Marie Gagnebin, Paul Ricoeur, entre outros. A leitura dos poemas, conforme a perspectiva assumida, indica que uma das forças da obra milaniana é a problematização da relação entre homem e natureza. Percebeu-se que as tensões resultantes da cisão entre homem e natureza não escamoteiam as consequências trágicas desse processo e frequentemente apontam para a assunção de uma voz crítica que irrompe no animismo da natureza e na denúncia da reificação do homem. Neste estudo, estruturado em três partes intituladas ‘Das imagens e das paisagens’, ‘O jardim como paisagem cultural’ e ‘Um ‘jardim’ de memórias’, aponta-se, ainda, a conservação de elementos do mundo empírico na fatura dos poemas.
