Da questa parte del mare. Gianmaria Testa ed Erri De Luca nel secolo delle migrazioni
Creators: name: Zoppi, Isabella Maria
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2009
Subjects: Erri De Luca; Gianmaria Testa; Italian Literature; Migrant Literature; Popular Music; Canzone

description: Gianmaria Testa's album Da questa parte del mare (2006) expresses a fifteen-year-long meditation about the theme of the great migrations which have marked the Twentieth Century. That same theme is considered by Erri De Luca as the only possible, epic narration of the contemporary world. On the one hand, Testa's project finds its starting point from the song-writer's capacity of observing and interpreting common stories as well as from his considerations about the changing of History; on the other hand, it takes origin from the reading of Erri De Luca's novels and lyrics, especially those of Solo andata. Righe che vanno troppo spesso a capo (2005). Within Testa's Da questa parte del mare, their lyrical voices and artistic and human perspectives seem somehow to cross and melt. Through his songs, Testa tells in an original way the new human geography traced by the migrant phenomenon across the Mediterranean and Europe.

description: A fundamental question in supply chain resilience is identifying its antecedents and investigating the relative importance of each antecedent in improving resilience to supply chain disruptions. In this paper, a comprehensive systematic literature review is conducted to assess the impact of each of the most widely known practices to enhance resilience (flexibility, agility, redundancy, and collaboration) on mitigating each type of supply chain disruption (demand, supply, process, control, and environmental disruptions). The literature review found that collaboration has been identified by the literature as the most important strategy to cope with control disruptions, and flexibility has been identified by the literature as the most important strategy to cope with demand, supply, process, and environmental disruptions. A framework is then developed for identifying the appropriate antecedents in improving resilience to different types of supply chain disruptions.
$Υ(1S)$ prompt production at the Tevatron and LHC in nonrelativistic QCD

description: With nonrelativistic QCD factorization, we calculate the $Υ(1S)$ prompt production at hadron colliders at next-to-leading order in $α_s$. In addition to the color-singlet contribution, color-octet channels (especially the P-wave channel) up to $O(v^4)$ are all considered. Aside from direct production, the feed-down contributions from higher excited S-wave and P-wave $b\bar b$ states to $Υ(1S)$ production are also included. We use the potential model estimates as input for color-singlet long-distance matrix elements (LDMEs). While for color-octet contributions, we find they can be approximately described by three LDMEs: $\mo{}{3}{S}{1}{8}$, $\mo{}{1}{S}{0}{8}$ and $\mo{}{3}{P}{0}{8}$. By fitting the Tevatron data we can determine some linear combinations of these LDMEs, and then use them to predict $Υ(1S)$ production at the LHC. Our predictions are consistent with the new experimental data of CMS and LHCb.

I fantasmi e i corpi. Breve excursus sulla letteratura dei Latinos negli Stati Uniti
Creators: name: Maffi, Mario
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2009
Subjects: Immigrant studies; Chicano literature; Nuyorican Poets; Literatures of the United States

description: The article shows the development of a distinctive Latino cultural tradition, linked to the immigration to the United States both from bordering Mexico (Mexican American immigrants, or chicanos) and from Puerto Rico (immigrants from la isla mainly to New York City, soon to be known as Nuyoricans). It retraces the complex and dramatic dynamics of both immigration trends, from the late 19th century to the late 20th century, and explores their cultural effects, both in terms of literary and theatrical production and in terms of socio-cultural behaviours more in general (class- and gender-based); and, by synthetically presenting some of these too often neglected authors and their works, it shows the important, critical and dialectical contribution offered by them to the literature(s) of the United States.

Three-dimensional Hydrodynamic Core-Collapse Supernova Simulations for an $11.2 M_{\odot}$ Star with Spectral Neutrino Transport

description: We present numerical results on three-dimensional (3D) hydrodynamic core-collapse simulations of an $11.2 M_{\odot}$ star. By comparing one-(1D) and two-dimensional(2D) results with those of 3D, we study how the increasing spacial multi-dimensionality affects the postbounce supernova dynamics. The calculations were performed with an energy-dependent treatment of the neutrino transport that is solved by the isotropic diffusion source approximation scheme. By performing a tracer-particle analysis, we show that the maximum residency time of material in the gain region is shown to be longer for 3D due to non-axisymmetric flow motions than 2D, which is one of advantageous aspects of 3D models to obtain neutrino-driven explosions. Our results show that convective matter motions below the gain radius become much more violent in 3D than 2D, making the neutrino luminosity larger for 3D. Nevertheless the emitted neutrino energies are made smaller due to the enhanced cooling. Our results indicate whether these advantages for driving 3D explosions could or could not overwhelm the disadvantages is sensitive to the employed numerical resolutions. An encouraging finding is that the shock expansion tends to become more energetic for models with finer resolutions. To draw a robust conclusion, 3D simulations with much more higher numerical resolutions and also with more advanced treatment of neutrino transport as well as of gravity is needed, which could be hopefully practicable by utilizing forthcoming Petaflops-class supercomputers.

Generalised Longitudinal Susceptibility for Magnetic Monopoles in Spin Ice
Creators: name: Bramwell, Steven T.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The generalised longitudinal susceptibility $χ({\bf q}, ω)$ affords a sensitive measure of the spatial and temporal correlations of magnetic monopoles in spin ice. Starting with the monopole model, a mean field expression for $χ({\bf q}, ω)$ is derived as well as expressions for the mean square longitudinal field and induction at a point. Monopole motion is shown to be strongly correlated, and both spatial and temporal correlations are controlled by the dimensionless monopole density $x$ which defines the ratio of the magnetization relaxation rate and the monopole hop rate. Thermal effects and spin lattice relaxation are also considered. The derived equations are applicable in the temperature range where the Wien effect for magnetic monopoles is negligible. They are discussed in the context of existing theories of spin ice and the following experimental techniques: dc and ac-magnetization, neutron scattering, neutron spin echo, and longitudinal and transverse field $μ$SR. The monopole theory is found to unify diverse experimental results, but several discrepancies between theory and experiment are identified. One of these, concerning the neutron scattering line shape, is explained by means of a phenomenological modification to the theory.

description: We consider a generalised complex Monge-Ampère equation on a compact Kähler manifold and treat it using the method of continuity. For complex surfaces, we prove an easy existence result. We also prove that (for three-folds and a related real PDE in a ball), as long as the Hessian is bounded below by a pre-determined constant (whilst moving along the method of continuity path), a smooth solution exists. Finally, we prove existence for another real PDE in a 3-ball, which is a local, real version of a conjecture of X.X. Chen.

description: In the last twenty-five years the transoceanic migrations have become object of multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary studies (known as ";migrant studies";), by sociologits, anthropologists, psychologists, philosophers, demographers, economists, and - this is of particular interest to us - scholars of literature.In fact, the migration streams have produced on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean a literary corpus regarding all genres of writings, creative and factual. This corpus has attracted the attention of scholars specialized in Italian literature and in Latin-American literatures from countries particularly affected by this phenomenon, like Argentina and Uruguay. This essay will deal with developments and perspectives of this literary production in Italy.

description: We have performed ^{75}As nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) on single crystalline Ba_{1-x}K_{x}Fe_{2}As_{2} for x = 0.27-1. ^{75}As nuclear quadruple resonance frequency (ν_{Q}) increases linearly with increasing x. The Knight shift K in normal state shows Pauli paramagnetic behavior with slight temperature T dependence. The value of K increases gradually with increasing x. By contrast, nuclear spin- lattice relaxation rate 1/T_{1} in normal state has a large T-dependence, which indicates existence of large antiferomagnetic (AF) spin fluctuations for all x. The T-dependence of 1/T_{1} shows a gap-like behavior below approximately 100 K for 0.6 < x < 0.9. These behaviors are well explained by the change of band structure with expansion of hole Fermi surfaces and shrink and disappearance of electron Fermi surfaces at Brillouin zone (BZ) with increasing x. The anisotropy of 1/T_{1}, represented by a ratio of 1/T_{1ab} to 1/T_{1c}, is always larger than 1 for all x, which indicates that the stripe-type AF fluctuations is dominant in this system. The K in superconducting (SC) state decreases, which corresponds to appearance of spin-singlet superconductivity. The T dependence of 1/T_{1} in SC state indicates multiple-SC-gap feature. A simple two gap model analysis shows that the larger superconducting gap gradually decreases with increasing x from 0.27 to 1 and smaller gap decreases rapidly and nearly vanishes for x > 0.6 where the electron pockets in BZ disappear.

Subjects: Guatemala; Italy; emigration; identity; Dante Liano

description: From different perspectives, the lecture means to focus on the peculiar experience and complications of Italian emigration in Guatemala, mostly at the beginning of the last century, and its literary reading. Contemporary writers have often approached the theme of desplacement and uprooting in America, but it's quite unusual to find a voice who tells stories about small communities of emigrants. This is the case of Italians in Guatemala, whose cultural identity has been represented in the latest novel of Dante Liano. By analyzing his work, we try to speculate about the links among history, biography, exile and literary creation.

The Indian Shaker Church : colonialism, continuity, and resistance, 1882-1920
Creators: name: Wright, Eric N.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The Indian Shaker Church is an indigenous spiritual tradition that incorporates Christian-in-origin elements into its practice that began in 1882 near Shelton, Washington. The existing academic literature on the church emphasizes how features of colonial contact between Euro-American resettlers and Indigenous peoples in the late-nineteenth-century, such as epidemic diseases, demographic changes and intense missionization, created a crisis of faith in Indigenous peoples’ spiritual beliefs. In these explanations, the emergence of the Indian Shaker Church is conceived of as a moment where Indigenous people “turned” to Christianity after having lost faith in the validity and efficacy of their own spiritual beliefs, supposedly rendered meaningless by colonial incursion and rapid cultural change. This paper argues instead that these same features of colonial contact in late-nineteenth-century southern Puget Sound, especially the presence of epidemic diseases, actually affirmed Indigenous peoples' spiritual beliefs. It further argues that one product of this affirmation was the Indian Shaker Church. The Shakers adopted Christian-in-origin practices, concepts and elements of material culture and turned them into spiritual resources in a fight against epidemic diseases, which they believed were a spiritual problem. At the same time as these Christian-in-origin elements in the Shaker Church became spiritual resources in a fight against epidemic diseases, they also expressed longstanding Coast Salish spiritual beliefs. The way in which the Indian Shakers expressed their longstanding spiritual beliefs through the religious concepts of the colonizer was an effective means of resistance to a campaign of persecution by American missionaries, Indian agents and lawmakers, who sought to stamp out the Shakers altogether. This paper draws attention to how the incorporation of Christian-in-origin elements into the spiritual practices of Indigenous people has consistently been made into a “conversion” moment by contemporary observers and historians of Indigenous Christianities. The ways in which the Shakers selectively adopted Christian-in-origin elements into their practice and re-interpreted them as expressions of Coast-Salish spiritual beliefs calls into question the historically-rooted assumption that the presence of Christian-in-origin elements in Indigenous peoples’ spiritual practices can be read simply as evidence of a “conversion moment,” in which Indigenous spiritual customs are replaced by Christian ones.
Inclusive Hadron Productions in pA Collisions

description: We calculate inclusive hadron productions in pA collisions in the small-x saturation formalism at one-loop order. The differential cross section is written into a factorization form in the coordinate space at the next-to-leading order, while the naive form of the convolution in the transverse momentum space does not hold. The rapidity divergence with small-x dipole gluon distribution of the nucleus is factorized into the energy evolution of the dipole gluon distribution function, which is known as the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. Furthermore, the collinear divergences associated with the incoming parton distribution of the nucleon and the outgoing fragmentation function of the final state hadron are factorized into the splittings of the associated parton distribution and fragmentation functions, which allows us to reproduce the well-known DGLAP equation. The hard coefficient function, which is finite and free of divergence of any kind, is evaluated at one-loop order.

Risk profile modeling for large scale projects : case study of a transmission line project
Creators: name: Orozco Mojica, Diego
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Over the next several years in North America, the power grid needs to be revitalized and extended to deal with aging infrastructure, capacity constraints, and the pursuit of renewable energy sources. In Canada, and particularly the province of BC, very significant complexity and risk is involved in the approval, design and construction of such projects given highly variable terrain and weather conditions, the multiplicity of the environmental, First Nations, and third part stakeholder issues involved, and challenging regulatory and procurement processes. Described in this research is a holistic approach to the identification of risk as a function of project context, the representation of which is made difficult in the context of transmission line projects because of their large spatial scope and the vast volume of data of different types to be distilled and analyzed. Central to the approach is the representation of a project within an integrated environment in the form of multiple views of a project – product, process, participant, environment and risk. Treatment of the first four views aids the identification of risk drivers for a risk event. Knowledge of risk drivers assists with expressing likelihood of occurrence of a risk event and the magnitude of impacts should it occur, and selecting the most appropriate risk response. Application of the approach to a 255 km 500 KV design-build transmission line project is featured and challenges involved in developing its risk profile highlighted. How data visualization can assist development of a project’s risk profile and facilitating insights into it is also demonstrated. The use of the holistic approach described for the development of a project’s risk register and mining its contents using data visualization to generate useful insights has proven to be of significant value to project personnel.

description: Peculiarities of obtaining parameters for broad multi-channel resonances from data are discussed analyzing the experimental data on processes $ππ\toππ,K\bar{K}$ in the $I^GJ^{PC}=0^+0^{++}$ channel in a model-independent approach based on analyticity and unitarity and using an uniformization procedure. We show that it is possible to obtain a good description of the $ππ$ scattering data from the threshold to 1.89 GeV with parameters of resonances cited in the PDG tables as preferred. However, in this case, first, representation of the $ππ$ background is unsatisfactory; second, the data on the coupled process $ππ\to K\bar{K}$ are not well described even qualitatively above 1.15 GeV when using the resonance parameters from the only $ππ$ scattering analysis. The combined analysis of these coupled processes is needed, which is carried out satisfactorily. Then both above-indicated flaws, related to the analysis of solely the $ππ$-scattering, are cured. The most remarkable change of parameters with respect to the values of only $ππ$ scattering analysis appears for the mass of the $f_0 (600)$ which is now in some accordance with the Weinberg prediction on the basis of mended symmetry and with an analysis using the large-$N_c$ consistency conditions between the unitarization and resonance saturation. The obtained $ππ$-scattering length $a_0^0$ in case when we restrict to the analysis of the $ππ$ scattering or consider so-called A-solution (with a lower mass and width of $f_0(600)$ meson) agrees well with prediction of chiral perturbation theory (ChPT) and with data extracted at CERN by the NA48/2 Collaboration from the analysis of the $K_{e4}$ decay and by the DIRAC Collaboration from the measurement of the $π^+π^-$ lifetime.

description: Eva Rossmann’s mystery novel Russen kommen, the tenth in a popular series, takes up a hot topic in Austria’s tourism industry: the tensions surrounding the recent influx of newly rich Russian visitors. This article uses Rossmann’s mystery as a case study to examine the impact of global culture and transnational investments on Austrian society. Trapped between provincialism and globalization, Austrians are forced to revisit old fears and find new ways of dealing with contemporary challenges. Due to its wide appeal, popular culture can lead the way in these negotiations.

description: We compute initial conditions in heavy-ion collisions within the Color Glass Condensate (CGC) framework by combining the impact parameter dependent saturation model (IP-Sat) with the classical Yang-Mills description of initial Glasma fields. In addition to fluctuations of nucleon positions, this IP-Glasma description includes quantum fluctuations of color charges on the length-scale determined by the inverse nuclear saturation scale Q_s. The model naturally produces initial energy fluctuations that are described by a negative binomial distribution. The ratio of triangularity to eccentricity is close to that in a model tuned to reproduce experimental flow data. We compare transverse momentum spectra and v_(2,3,4)(p_T) of pions from different models of initial conditions using relativistic viscous hydrodynamic evolution.

description: This essay investigates the constellations of “double” in Meyrink’s novel Der Golem to the extent that the Golem derives its terror not from something alien or unknown but from something strangely familiar, which defeats our efforts to separate ourselves from it. According to this theory, the Golem turns out to be both the product of a psychic dissociation of the main character, due to a  comeback of his “removed past” induced by hypnosis, and the Jewish ghetto’s spirit brought to life by the suffering that its inhabitants have endured over the centuries. This essay also focuses on Pernath’s process of initiation, which aims at the conquest of his cultural memory.

description: We develop an Easy Java Simulation (EJS) model for students to experience the physics of idealized one-dimensional collision carts. The physics model is described and simulated by both continuous dynamics and discrete transition during collision. In the field of designing computer simulations, we discuss briefly three pedagogical considerations such as 1) consistent simulation world view with pen paper representation, 2) data table, scientific graphs and symbolic mathematical representations for ease of data collection and multiple representational visualizations and 3) game for simple concept testing that can further support learning. We also suggest using physical world setup to be augmented complimentary with simulation while highlighting three advantages of real collision carts equipment like tacit 3D experience, random errors in measurement and conceptual significance of conservation of momentum applied to just before and after collision. General feedback from the students has been relatively positive, and we hope teachers will find the simulation useful in their own classes. 2015 Resources added: http://iwant2study.org/ospsg/index.php/interactive-resources/physics/02-newtonian-mechanics/02-dynamics/46-one-dimension-collision-js-model http://iwant2study.org/ospsg/index.php/interactive-resources/physics/02-newtonian-mechanics/02-dynamics/195-elastic-collision

Hatte Leutnant Gustl Hunger? Einige späte Bemerkungen zur Entstehung des inneren Monologs bei Arthur Schnitzler und Knut Hamsun
Creators: name: Pottbeckers, Jörg
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: Arthur Schnitzler’s Leutnant Gustl is regarded as the first instance of interior monologue in German-language literature. According to the general opinion, Edouard Dujardin, who is widely regarded as the “inventor” of the interior monologue, gave Schnitzler the narratological inspiration for his famous text. But, as will be shown by the following comparative analysis, Knut Hamsun’s novel Hunger plays, in fact, a significant role in the development of the interior monologue in the literature around the turn of the century, especially thanks to its narrative techniques.

description: The present work is devoted to investigating portfolio optimization. In the first part, we address the problem of robust utility maximization, where we consider the uncertainty in the drift and covariance matrix of the securities. In the second part, we aim at steering the portfolio wealth to a prescribed terminal distribution. We study this problem with the tools of optimal mass transport. We designed two deep neural network-based algorithms to solve optimal transport problems. The first deep learning algorithm is based on the penalization of the terminal constraint. In the second algorithm, we solve the dual problem with adversarial networks.

description: High-quality K(Fe$_{1-x}$Co$_x$)$_2$As$_2$ single crystals have been grown by using KAs flux method. Instead of increasing the superconducting transition temperature $T_{\rm c}$ through electron doping, we find that Co impurities rapidly suppress $T_{\rm c}$ down to zero at only $x \approx$ 0.04. Such an effective suppression of $T_{\rm c}$ by impurities is quite different from that observed in Ba$_{0.5}$K$_{0.5}$Fe$_2$As$_2$ with multiple nodeless superconducting gaps. Thermal conductivity measurements in zero field show that the residual linear term $κ_0/T$ only change slightly with $3.4\%$ Co doping, despite the sharp increase of scattering rate. The implications of these anomalous impurity effects are discussed.

La “memoria attiva” come gioco delle identità nel romanzo «Suche nach M.» di Doron Rabinovici
Creators: name: Saletta, Ester
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: The following essay explores the theme of remembrance as a question of identity in Doron Rabinovici’s novel Suche nach M. The Austria Jewish author concentrates on the quest for self-determination through various means, which are determined by generational differences. While the generation of survivors sees remembrance of the Holocaust as a moment of silence, their children commemorate it through masquerades or carnivals. Rabinovici’s novel, with its emphasis on a collective search for identity, is an exemplary contribution
to Holocaust literature as a re-elaboration of Jewish cultural biblical tradition.

Anthropic Likelihood for the Cosmological Constant and the Primordial Density Perturbation Amplitude

description: Weinberg et al. calculated the anthropic likelihood of the cosmological constant using a model assuming that the number of observers is proportional to the total mass of gravitationally collapsed objects, with mass greater than a certain threshold, at t \rightarrow \infty. We argue that Weinberg's model is biased toward small Λ, and to try to avoid this bias we modify his model in a way that the number of observers is proportional to the number of collapsed objects, with mass and time equal to certain preferred mass and time scales. Compared to Weinberg's model, this model gives a lower anthropic likelihood of Λ_0 (T_+(Λ_0) ~ 5%). On the other hand, the anthropic likelihood of the primordial density perturbation amplitude from this model is high, while the likelihood from Weinberg's model is low. Furthermore, observers will be affected by the history of the collapsed object, and we introduce a method to calculate the anthropic likelihoods of Λand Q from the mass history using the extended Press-Schechter formalism. The anthropic likelihoods for $Λ$ and Q from this method are similar to those from our single mass constraint model, but, unlike models using the single mass constraint which always have degeneracies between Λand Q, the results from models using the mass history are robust even if we allow both Λand Q to vary. In the case of Weinberg's flat prior distribution of Λ(pocket based multiverse measure), our mass history model gives T_+(Λ_0) ~ 10%, while the scale factor cutoff measure and the causal patch measure give T_+(Λ_0) \geq 30%.

description: A growing number of low luminosity and low surface brightness astronomical objects challenge traditional notions of both galaxies and star clusters. To address this, we propose a definition of galaxy independent of the cold dark matter model of the universe: A galaxy is a gravitationally bound set of stars whose properties cannot be explained by a combination of baryons and Newton's laws of gravity. After exploring observational diagnostics of this definition, we examine the classification of ultra-faint dwarfs, globular clusters, ultra-compact dwarfs, and tidal dwarfs. While kinematic studies provide an effective galaxy diagnostic in many regimes, they can be less useful for compact or faint systems. To explore the use of [Fe/H] spread as a complementary diagnostic, we use published spectroscopic [Fe/H] measurements of 16 Milky Way dwarfs and 24 globular clusters to calculate their [Fe/H] spreads and uncertainties. Our principal results are: (i) no old star cluster less luminous then M_V = -10 has a significant (> 0.1 dex) spread in iron; (ii) known ultra-faint dwarfs can be classified with a combination of kinematics and [Fe/H]; (iii) the observed [Fe/H] spreads in massive (> 10^6 M_Sun) globular clusters do not necessarily imply they are the stripped nuclei of dwarfs, nor a need for dark matter; and (iv) if ultra-compact dwarfs reside in dark matter halos akin to those of ultra-faint dwarfs of the same half-light radii, then they will show no clear dynamical signature of dark matter. We suggest measurements that may assist future classification of massive globular clusters, ultra-compact dwarfs, and ultra-faint galaxies. Our galaxy definition is designed to be independent of the details of current observations and models, while our proposed diagnostics can be refined or replaced as our understanding of the universe evolves.

description: For a standard Finsler metric F on a manifold M, its domain is the whole tangent bundle TM and its fundamental tensor g is positive-definite. However, in many cases (for example, the well-known Kropina and Matsumoto metrics), these two conditions are relaxed, obtaining then either a pseudo-Finsler metric (with arbitrary g) or a conic Finsler metric (with domain a "conic" open domain of TM). Our aim is twofold. First, to give an account of quite a few subtleties which appear under such generalizations, say, for conic pseudo-Finsler metrics (including, as a previous step, the case of Minkowski conic pseudo-norms on an affine space). Second, to provide some criteria which determine when a pseudo-Finsler metric F obtained as a general homogeneous combination of Finsler metrics and one-forms is again a Finsler metric ---or, with more accuracy, the conic domain where g remains positive definite. Such a combination generalizes the known (alpha,beta)-metrics in different directions. Remarkably, classical examples of Finsler metrics are reobtained and extended, with explicit computations of their fundamental tensors.

Zeit und Raum. Das jelineksche Drama als Erinnerungsort

Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano

description: Elfriede Jelinek’s dramas focus on the power of mental images. Her “language surfaces” describe spaces of ideas which are created by associations und amalgams. These are hybrid intellectual places, where those who were driven out from history try to come back. This theatrical aesthetics evolves thanks to circumlocutions around a symbolic und concrete «lieu de mémoire» (Pierre Nora): Auschwitz. Elfriede Jelinek uses the ancient “method of loci” to question the link between theatre and “lieu de mémoire”, while building up intellectual places very similar to contemporary memorials.

Mehr Leben als Tod in Rom. Josef Winklers römische Novelle «Natura morta»
Creators: name: Haas, Franz
Publisher: name: Università degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: The essay’s introduction examines the importance of Italy for Josef Winkler and puts the novella «Natura morta» in context with his oeuvre. The  subsequent analysis of the text highlights the technique used by the author, which shows similarities with the process of film shooting. The narrator’s eye follows the main character like a movie camera and is focused on numerous details as if it were zooming on them. In this process, while advancing the novella’s plot, the author paints a colorful portrait of Rome, bringing the city to
life like a baroque still life.
