title: Il soggetto nullo nel processo di acquisizione del portoghese brasiliano

description: This paper is part of a research project - still at an early stage - on the process of acquisition of Brazilian Portuguese as a foreign language in the Italian university context. We present here the first data on the acquisition, by Italian-speaking learners (all students of the University of Salento), of morphosyntactic properties associated with the positive/negative value of the pro-drop parameter, also showing the pragmatic-discursive properties that can determine a distribution of null pronominal subjects in different contexts.

title: Prospect Hill Hydrological Stations at Harvard Forest since 2005

description: To better understand the critical role of headwater streams and wetlands in our forest ecosystem, long-term measurements were initiated in 2005 on two small watersheds in the Prospect Hill Tract of the Harvard Forest. On Nelson Brook, weirs were installed on outlet streams of an 11-ha spruce-hemlock wetland (watershed area = 44 ha). On Bigelow Brook, pipes were installed to measure flow above (watershed = 24 ha) and below (watershed = 65 ha) a 3-ha shrub-dominated beaver swamp. The gaged watersheds, though adjacent and comparable in size, differ significantly in topography, soils, wetlands, stream chemistry, stream biota, land-use history, and forest vegetation, and provide an extraordinary opportunity to study the impacts of these factors on small watershed hydrology and ecology. Weekly manual measurements were initiated in April 2005. Continuous automated measurements were initiated in December 2007. Data for the current month are available online, updated every 15 minutes, with out-of-range values replaced by NA but values not otherwise checked. Earlier data are checked and archived with missing, questionable, and estimated values flagged, following methods of the LTER ClimbDB project. A log of events affecting station measurements is also posted. For current data, please see: http://harvardforest.fas.harvard.edu/meteorological-hydrological-stations. For a complete set of archived data, please see: http://harvardforest.fas.harvard.edu:8080/exist/xquery/data.xq?id=hf070.

title: Self-translation in translingual writing. Luan Starova's Albanian and Macedonian versions of the novel 'The Times of the Goats'

description: In this contribution I examine the Macedonian and Albanian versions of the novel 'The Times of the Goats' both written by the Albanian-born writer, poet and translator Luan Starova who lives in the Republic of Macedonia. His prose fiction displays an interesting case of literary translingualism and self-translation, because he uses two working languages in his literary production: Macedonian, the acquired language, and Albanian his mother tongue, learned only in the family context. As a bilingual and bi-cultural mediator, Starova has built a bridge between the Albanian and Macedonian cultures. The process of (re)creation and (re)writing some parts of the text  blurs a clear-cut distinction between the 'original', represented by the first version of the novel published in Macedonian, and the 'translated' version, published in Albanian nine years later. The result is a sort of 'twin work' or better said a 'bicephalic' text in which the different lexical and stylistic choices are adapted to the two different linguistic, semantic, pragmatic and sociocultural contexts.

title: Discursive construction of ethos-based framework for public identity. Investigative congressional hearings

description: The construction of ethos-based self-representation in public discourse is particularly evident when it comes to politicians and corporate leaders who, in their public prominent role, may need to convince their audience they behave and have behaved ethically. This seems to be even more evident in case of suspicion of wrongdoing, which is typically the reason why investigative congressional hearings are conducted. The hearings can give researchers the possibility to discover whom the Congress is listening to, who the players are and how they position themselves in a debate. However – to the author's knowledge – the subject has not been of much scrutiny on the part of discourse scholars, an attitude somehow contrasting with lay public's general interests and a missed opportunity to shed light on the actors and the issues. It is the scope of the present study to analyse discursive strategies aimed to construct ethos-based framework for public identity in the opening statements of investigative hearings. The strategies are expected to be displayed both by politicians facing a controversial topic and by highly influential company CEOs whose companies have been under public scrutiny for suspected unethical behaviour. The methodological framework adopted in the study makes synergic use of discourse analytical perspective combined with the traditional definition of text types by Egon Werlich, and especially argumentative type. It is believed that by discourse analysis readers can become aware of linguistic choices and the arguments that they imply – i.e. the way writers put forth a standpoint and defend it in opposition to its contrary. In this case, it is the witnesses' portrait as ethical persona which is questioned and needs to be asserted.

title: Short-film adaptations of Munro's stories in the 1980s. A multimodal stylistic analysis

description: This paper presents and deconstructs the four clichés regarding the inferiority of adaptations to adapted texts identified by Linda Hutcheon (2013), by examining screen adaptations of Alice Munro's short stories. It focuses on three short Canadian films released in the 1980s: Boys and Girls (1983), Thanks for the Ride (1983) and Connection (1986). The theory derives from Hutcheon's reconceptualization of adaptation(s), while the methodology relies on multimodal stylistic analysis. The inspection of the adaptation process reveals lines of narrative continuity and discontinuity that show the distinct narrative potential of audio-visual artefacts. Contrary to what is commonly thought and expressed by the clichés, the three Canadian films manage to negotiate intimacy and distance through point of view; to express interiority; to shape nonlinear, fractured and layered temporality; to give form to metaphors and other figures. In Thanks for the Ride, the representation and negotiation of intimacy and distance in point of view are central and fluid, functional to the intersectional discussion about gender and social class. Interiority is expressed in Boys and Girls through close-ups and eye-angles, with particular attention to the filmic representation of the female protagonist Margaret. Connection deploys and intertwines two diegetic and temporal plans, and the resurfacing past profoundly affects the present time. Ultimately, all three films convincingly depict a mirror scene, a semiotically layered and complex trope, which represents Munro's concern with introspection.

title: The power of attorney. A creatively conventional genre in legal discourse?

description: The power of attorney is one of the most frequently used instruments in international legal practice, both in Common Law and Civil Law contexts. Internationally known as a legal-lay contractual agreement, it is locally adapted and drafted to suit specific, local realities. Generally, contracts lie within those genres which combine 'highly formal traits with features typical of the written mode' (Gotti 2005, p. 21). Additionally, as contracts, powers of attorney can be considered as highly codified and standardised, with easily predictable sentences and constructions, rich in formulaic expressions (Gotti 2005, p. 21), thus showing a crystallized and conventional use of certain routines. Starting from the assumption that legal language is inherently complex, obscure and over sophisticated (Di Renzo Villata 2007, p. 4), the present study investigates the power of attorney as a legal genre, identifying its particular move structure (Bhatia 2003). The qualitative and quantitative analysis of a corpus of different typologies of powers of attorney, drafted ad hoc for specific actions, endeavours to ascertain whether and to what extent specific generic features, macrostructures, moves, along with lexical expressions, archaic formulas and clichés can be placed on a creativity-conventionality cline. The investigation aims to determine whether powers of attorney can be representative of the dynamic interaction between conservatism and lexical productivity.

title: Parametric clustering nell'acquisizione di Pro-drop in l2. Il parametro del soggetto nullo nell'italiano L2

description: This paper explores the idea of parametric clustering in Second Language Acquisition, specifically concerning the case of Pro-drop in Italian L2. The experiment hereby proposed aims at exanimating the cluster of properties related to the Parameter taken into account and how these affect L2 learners with a diametrically opposed Pro-drop parametric value in their L1. It consists in testing how French and German learners interpret non-explicitly related phenomena in Italian L2, such as subject-verb inversion, expletive subjects, that-trace effect. The results lead to new questions concerning the existence of a clustered transfer of properties in Second Language Acquisition.

title: Sul tradurre come metamorfosi. Dal testo originale al doppio traduttologico

description: The idea of translation as a metamorphosis from one language to another triggers a series of reflections which concern, not only the role of the translator as such, but also the relationship between the original text and all the translations of it in the same language which follow on one after the other in time. While the original text remains the same, the translator of a classic – like Moby-Dick or Madame Bovary, for example – aims to render the uniqueness of the literary work. However, his/her translation is partly conditioned by the uninterrupted instability that characterises a translated work like Robinson Crusoe and all the existing versions in Italian as well as all the future translations that are still possible. The history of translation cannot avoid taking these transitions into account since they involve a reflection on traductological methods, the literary system and the cultural dialogue which translations of the great works of the Western canon generate. After all, translating ultimately evokes the artist that is in the translator, which in Eleanor Marx's case culminates in a full identification with Emma Bovary, the heroine of the novel she translated in 1886. In this respect, the target text may be considered a traductological double, a sort of shadow of the other (i.e. the original), which leads to a competition on a strictly creative level (the Italian translation of Ulysses, for example). Moreover, when translators are also acclaimed poets and novelists, creativity prevails over philological precision and the translation really becomes a double that is fully entitled to seek its share in the greatness of the original.

title: Assessing intercultural awareness. Reflection vs. Interaction in Telecollaboration

description: This small case study investigates the usefulness of two complementary assessment models to find evidence of the cognitive thinking processes associated with behaviours of increased intercultural awareness. Two intercultural telecollaboration exchanges (Autumn 2017 and Winter 2018) involved participants from a Canadian (Québec) and an Italian university who were all studying English as foreign/second language. Participants' written answers to questionnaires and discussion questions were quantitatively and qualitatively analysed to find evidence of increased intercultural awareness. Two models were employed: the Interacting Processes of Intercultural Learning by Liddicoat and Scarino (IPIL; Liddicoat and Scarino 2013, Scarino and Liddicoat 2009) and the model of Practical Inquiry (PI) within the Community of Inquiry (CoI) framework by Garrison et al. (2001). The IPIL model describes intercultural learning as a progression of behaviours, whereas the PI model emphasizes the cognitive phases involved in online, interactive learning. IPIL provided evidence of participants' increased intercultural awareness in the analysis of questionnaire data; however, the higher cognitive interactive behaviours were elusive. The PI model, conceived for assessing online interactive learning, not only provided evidence of the participants' higher cognitive processes in discussion questions, but also afforded a rich and deep description of the learners' progress toward greater intercultural awareness.

title: Dai testi scritti alla sgrammatichetta. Sullo status del burocratese della Regione Campania

description: This paper is divided into four parts. The first part traces the interweaving of production (in particular written production) and (in)comprehension as in Demaurian thought. In the second part, a specific study, which is a section of a broader project entitled Public Administration: simplifying decision-making processes, improving performances, is presented. This study's aim is to observe in texts written by the Campania Region those typical linguistic features of bureaucratese which can generate problems of comprehension. For the realization of the study, as a first step three texts homogeneous with respect to some variables but different with respect to others were selected (the texts are public notices or announcements through which European Union financial resources are provided to external and heterogeneous users). As a second step, fourteen comparable articles were extracted from the texts and analyzed at the morphosyntactic, lexical and textual levels. If on the one hand the analysis shows the resistance of a by now consolidated bureaucratese, on the other hand it is possible to outline a bureaucratese moving in synchrony downwards, characterized by grammar mistakes which occur repeatedly at the graphic, syntactic and lexical levels. These grammar mistakes are collected in a model of bureaucratese short ungrammar (sgrammatichetta) elaborated in the third part of the paper. The fourth and last part is a reflection on the role of schools and universities, places dedicated to training in even bureaucratic writing, and on the main results of some didactic experiments already carried out on (re)writing bureaucratic texts.

title: Dante e la codificazione grammaticale nel XVI secolo

description: The article aims to analyze the image of Dante within the grammatical codification in the Italian Renaissance. As it is well known, the grammarians took as their model the thirteenth-century language of the Three Crowns to develop the rules to be applied later to the written language. If the language of Petrarch and Boccaccio fixed the model to follow for poetry and prose, in this century the language of Dante experienced a sort of "Bembian censorship". This censorship was due to the interpretation, within the Prose della volgar lingua by Pietro Bembo, of the crude and dishonored words of the Comedy (see Prose II. 5). The article traces the positions of the main grammarians with respect to Dante's linguistic structures: through a systematic investigation of the quotations of Dante's works within the main grammar books of the sixteenth century (by Fortunio, Bembo, Del Rosso, Gabriele, Giambullari, and Varchi), the way in which Bembo's position was interpreted and accepted or not in the Renaissance will be outlined. The article will show that after the death of Bembo the grammars will begin to receive more quotations from Dante's works.

title: Cultural heritage in the digital ecosystem. Matera 2019 European Capital of Culture

description: The article intends to highlight the role of multi-semiotic representation in the branding of cultural heritage in the digital ecosystem. The case study is represented by the city of Matera in Southern Italy that has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993 and is now one of the two 2019 European Capitals of Culture (ECoC) with the Bulgarian city of Plovdiv. Among the reasons why the Italian city was awarded the title at the end of an intense competition were the visionary quality of heritage branding and the strategic use of digital media for citizen engagement. In order to illustrate these winning features, a critical analytic approach to discourse will be applied to key project documents to detect salient linguistic patterns and discursive strategies that encode the socio-cognitive features and core values of Matera 2019's programme. The analysis will then continue with a selection of verbal and visual materials published on the English version of the Matera 2019 website. The multimodal discourse analysis of these materials will observe how the municipality and its stakeholders have managed to embody a convincing heritage narrative and propose a model of social entrepreneurship in which semiotic choices play a key role in incorporating the city's vision and values that were first articulated in the documentation supporting its candidacy.

title: Lexique partagé en français et en francoprovençal des Pouilles dans la perspective du plurilinguisme

description: The purpose of this article is to present the results of our research into the lexicon shared between the Francoprovençal of Puglia and French, two languages belonging to the Gallo-Roman domain. The two varieties of Francoprovençal spoken in the small villages of Faeto and Celle di San Vito, located in the Monti Dauni area of the province of Foggia, are poorly endowed, with an oral tradition and endangered. Despite this, recent sociolinguistic surveys note that this language represents a communication code with a considerable linguistic vitality, determined by the extremely positive attitude of the inhabitants towards it. In addition, Faetani and Cellesi, recognizing their ethnolinguistic affiliation with French, show also a positive attitude towards the French language, which has many similarities with their local language. Hence our idea that French might represent a further incentive for Faetani and Cellesi to preserve their language, as well as its usefulness in understanding the official language of France and of other languages, in order to enjoy the benefits of plurilingualism. From this perspective, we will present a corpus of about 250 similar words in Francoprovençal and in French, organized according to the practice of intercomprehension. We find it relevant to make learners work on extracts of texts containing the sort of proposed lexicon. The learner will rely on the similarities, possibly on the lexical identities, which, by referring to the context, will allow him/her easy access to meaning.

title: A cross-cultural study of figurative language in Museum Audio Descriptions. Implications for Translation

description: As the Translation Studies community moves forward in an increasingly networked globe, and the needs of the new market change, the range of interests of translation as a discipline broadens, new proposals are raised by the market stakeholders and new challenges are discussed in academia. The challenges discussed in this paper come from research on Audio Description (Díaz Cintas 2007) with particular reference to museum Audio Description (AD), an intersemiotic translation which pursues the aim of disseminating knowledge and helping social integration "by performing inclusive practices" (Jiménez Hurtado et al 2015). Starting from the assumption that the language used by the people performing the AD (the audio describers) is a special language shaped by the communicative needs of its users, this research focuses on issues of discursive representation, construction and mediation in English and Italian Audio Descriptions. While the existing literature has shed some light on this type of translation and its main features (i.e.  verbal and adjectival constructions; see Neves 2012; Hurtado et al 2015), the area of analogies does not appear to have been investigated from a contrastive perspective. Thus, this paper seeks to address this gap by focusing on the use of analogies and claims that they should be considered as a creative strategy of intersemiotic translation.

title: Sintassi delle frasi idiomatiche e delle frasi libere dell'italiano: differenze o similarità?

description: This study is devoted to the analysis of the similarities and differences between Italian idiomatic constructions and non-idiomatic constructions. Idioms pose many problems as concerns the interaction between syntax and semantics because most literature assigns idioms a special status. Rather, their behaviour is not so different from non-idiomatic constructions, either from a distributional or a transformational point of view. I will present the methodological principles on which I constructed the lexico-grammatical classification of Italian idioms, and I will show that a continuum exists between non-idiomatic and idiomatic constructions. Since most idioms are ambiguous, I will analyze the relationship between ambiguity and communication.
