Down the Rabbit Hole: Dedications in the Works of Lewis Carroll, J. M. Barrie, and C. S. Lewis

The paper analyzes dedications in children’s literature through the paratextual categories outlined by Gérard Genette. In particular, the study focuses on those dedications addressed to the children who became the main characters of the works dedicated to them.

The paper uses as cases of study the dedic...

A tal fine, è stato analizzato un campione rappresentativo di iniziative innovative intraprese da cooperative di consumatori italiane. Leggendo le iniziative con la lente degl...

Architetture per una riflessione sull'esistenza/Architectures for a reflection about existence

L'articolo tratta criticamente alcune architetture contemporanee in cui gli spazi fisici rimanderebbero a problematiche di natura esistenziale. Si parte dalle "sculture abitacoli" dello scultore francese André Bloc degli anni '60; esempi di architetture anni '60 improntate al concetto di "funzione obliqua" di Claude Parent e Paul Virilio; la Slow House (1991), una casa per le vacanze, pensata dagli architetti Elizabeth Diller e Ricardo Scofidio; alcune installazioni dell'architetto Allan Wexl...
