I Doria a Genova
Nella complessa vicenda della storia di Genova, se se ne approfondiscono gli elementi economici, politici e soprattutto antropologici, si capisce subito che non sarebbe stato possibile passare da un regime comunale a una signoria o a un principato, come invece avvenne in molti altri casi, come per una sequenza naturale. A Genova nessuno avrebbe sopportato un “capo”, un signore assoluto: l’oligarchia delle famiglie patrizie non lo avrebbe tollerato. Lo capì perfettamente il più famoso e importante dei Doria, Andrea, che pure passa alla storia e ancor oggi alla toponomastica cittadina come il Principe per eccellenza. Il grande ammiraglio, fine tessitore dell’ardua politica del XVI se...
La bussola amorosa
Un romanzo libertino che racconta la spericolata iniziativa erotico-sentimentale di una ventenne imparentata con la protagonista di Storia di O di Pauline Réage e la Valentina di Crepax. Silvana, l’eroina de La bussola amorosa, durante un fantastico viaggio in autostop lungo l’autostrada Roma-Genova, è travolta da una spericolatissima serie di incontri con maschi, disinibiti o nevrotici, con cui vive fulminanti, drammatiche e imprevedibili relazioni corporali e morali. La ragazza, come l’eroina di una famosa novella del Decamerone, passa attraverso molte braccia e molti letti. L’autostrada, colonna vertebrale dell’Italia ormai travolta dalla (e coinvolta nella) civiltà di massa, è il territorio di una catena di picaresche e oniriche competizioni che aiutano Silvana a trovare la bussola per orientarsi nell’accidentato percorso dell’amore e dell’eros.
Towards a New Standard
In many European languages the National Standard Variety is converging with spoken, informal, and socially marked varieties. In Italian this process is giving rise to a new standard variety called Neo-standard Italian, which partly consists of regional features. This book contributes to current research on standardization in Europe by offering a comprehensive overview of the re-standardization dynamics in Italian. Each chapter investigates a specific dynamic shaping the emergence of Neo-standard Italian and Regional Standard Varieties, such as the acceptance of previously non-standard features, the reception of Old Italian features excluded from the standard variety, the changing standard la...

It opens up to a wide readership a well-documented synthesis which is both fully informative and reflects current debate. 20 chapters by qualified and distinguished scho...

Syntax of the Sentence
This is the first of a multi-volume set dealing with the long-term evolution of Latin syntax, roughly from the 4th century BCE up to the 6th century CE. There are six pivotal chapters in this volume, each dealing with a subject which is critical to the understanding of the syntactic system. Topics covered include contact phenomena (from Greek and Semitic), the development of word order, particles, coordination, and the syntax of questions and answers. The volume is introduced by the editors in an explanatory "Prolegomena", and the textual parameters are set in a chapter on literary genres and sociolinguistics. Crafted in a functional-typological framework, chapters are user-sensitive, with a minimum of technical jargon and formalism, making them accessible to the widest range of readers.
