Words that Cross Borders: A Reading of True Stories
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 94 Language: Italian Abstract: At a time when walls are being erected and forms of belonging reduced to simplistic categories; dialogue once again emerges as the only viable basis for a transformative way of living together. This is the horizon within which Words That Cross Borders: A Reading of True Stories takes shape. The volume brings together the voices of writers Pegah Moshir Pour, Taufiq Takoua Ben Mohamed and Sabrina Efionayi, weaving them into a shared attempt to address a series of common questions: what does identity mean today? What does multiculturalism entail? What are the limits of freedom? The encounter that gave rise to the volume was made possible by the SULIEIA programme (Supporting Universities in Digital Transition, Educational Innovation, and Environmental Protection), coordinated by the University of Naples Federico II. This highly significant initiative in international academic cooperation is part of a broader trajectory that extends from the SuWorMed Spring School in Nablus, devoted to women in research in a context marked by war, to the OUT/SULIEIA School on Mediterranean tourism. Moving across different cultural and geographical settings, these experiences share a commitment to building bridges and examining interculturality through a gender perspective. The journey is completed by Salvatore Esposito’s photographs, which translate the same aspiration towards encounter and community-building into a visual register. Through faces, gestures and places, they reveal how borders may cease to function solely as lines of separation and instead become possibilities for relation.

Food sovereignty and food security. The increasing weaponisation of food
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 146 Language: English Abstract: Food insecurity in the Middle East and North Africa over recent decades, far from being a mere byproduct of conflicts or simple economic mismanagement, should rather be understood as the structural result of specific political, military, and economic arrangements. The region covered by this collection includes two categories of vulnerability. The first includes middle-income countries with limited agricultural sectors, dependent on food imports and lacking sufficient energy resources to offset food inflation, such as Tunisia and Morocco: rarely at risk of famine, a number of these countries remain vulnerable to fluctuations in international markets and may experience protests and unrest related to the erosion of consumers' purchasing power when food prices rise. The structural dependence of these economies on a global food market that is both concentrated and highly speculative amplifies price volatility and increases their exposure to food crises and external shocks. The second category, on the other hand, includes countries that have come out of the acute phases of prolonged conflicts — Yemen and Syria — where food security largely relies on external humanitarian aid, and where any further shock — economic, climatic, or military — can quickly raise the risk of malnutrition and famine. In Yemen, despite the fragile ceasefire mediated by the United Nations in April 2022, a low-intensity conflict has continued to affect some areas of the country. Hunger has become embedded in the political and military strategies of both the Houthi movement and the internationally recognized government. Both have resorted to manipulating water and agricultural infrastructure, imposing blockades and inspection regimes, and maintaining a dual currency and food system, whose effects on purchasing power continue to cause acute food insecurity even under the current informal ceasefire. In Syria, the post-As…

pigR: R, for lazy students
type: item
description: Series: Strumenti, 2 Language: Italian Published: 2023 ISBN: 978-88-31309-24-0 Abstract: This short book (pigR: R for lazy students, pigr-i in Italian) stems from a few years of very frustrating teachning experiences in a short course of Statistical computing with R for PhD students. It is intended for junior scientists in experimental sciences who have little experience with statistics and coding and need to learn how to do data analysis with something more complex than a spreadsheet, and to do it fast. The general idea is: to provide a general view of R as a language / environment and its value for data analysis and statistics; to help (potential) users to identify their needs in terms of algorithms and statistical functions; to provide guided paths for standard sets of learning / usage needs and different level of interactions (from absolute beginners to intermediate), pointing the users to the best resources for further learning.

Europe between east and west : Proceedings of the Conference held in Naples, 6 December 2024
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: European Philosophical Studies Pages: 310 Language: Italian Abstract: Born from the convergence of the PRIN 2022 project "Eastern Europe between Russia and the West: Contested Spaces, Identity Building and Memory Policies in Historical Perspective" and the project "West and East in Contemporary Europe: Empires, Philosophies, Ideal Representations, and Transnational Networks"—hosted by the Department of Humanities at the University of Naples Federico II—this volume addresses, through a series of case studies, the complex issue of Europe’s positioning between East and West in light of contemporary challenges. Historians of the modern era, philosophers, historians of philosophy, and scholars of language and literature examine—from diverse disciplinary perspectives—themes of great relevance: the Kosovo myth in Slavic literatures (Cristina Beretta); Europe’s borders and Russia’s position in the writings of Leopold von Ranke (Santi Di Bella); the Balkan and Russian East in European tourism between the late 19th and early 20th centuries (Annunziata Berrino); the comparison between Protestantism and Orthodoxy in the work of Max Weber (Filomena Fera); the East in the works of interwar European liberal authors such as A. Gide, G. Murray, and H. Focillon (Paola Cattani); the representation of Russia in the works of Thomas Mann (Domenico Conte); the 1946 Geneva International Meetings and the birth of bipolar Europe (Anna Pia Ruoppo); the categories of East and West in the thought of Ernst Jünger and Carl Schmitt (Marcello Boemio); the pop-rock culture of young Romanians in the 1960s and 1970s (Emanuela Costantini); Nikolai Danilevsky’s Russia and Europe and its reception in post-Soviet Russia (Giovanna Cigliano); East and West within the trajectory of European «mondiality» (Teodoro Tagliaferri).

Towards a Direct Air Connection Between Naples and China. An Analytical Report on Economic Linkages, Tourism Potential, and Air Connectivity
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 102 Language: Italian Abstract: This report provides a comprehensive assessment of the socio-economic, cultural, tourism, and aviation linkages between China and the catchment area of Naples Capodichino Airport, defined as the Campania region together with the functionally connected provinces of Latina, Frosinone, and Potenza. Its primary objective is to evaluate the feasibility of establishing a direct air connection between Naples and China by examining the evolution of bilateral interactions and identifying the conditions necessary to sustain such a route. The analysis is structured around three dimensions: economic relations, including trade, foreign direct investment, and the presence of Chinese businesses; tourism dynamics, with particular attention to the recovery of Chinese inbound tourism, Naples' digital visibility on Chinese social media, and future market potential; and passenger mobility patterns, highlighting existing travel flows, the role of connecting hubs, and the demand for direct air services. The findings show that economic relations between China and the catchment area have strengthened steadily over time but remain insufficient to generate substantial business travel demand. By contrast, cultural and academic exchanges continue to expand, laying a solid foundation for deeper long-term cooperation. The greatest potential lies in the tourism sector, where the recovery of Chinese outbound travel, Naples' growing digital presence in the Chinese online ecosystem, and the region's well-developed transport infrastructure create increasingly favorable conditions for attracting Chinese visitors. Overall, the report concludes that, while a direct Naples–China route cannot yet rely primarily on business demand, it represents a promising long-term opportunity if supported by targeted tourism promotion, stronger economic cooperation, enhanced digital engagement, and continued investment in transport connec…

Marxism and Embodied Thought: Denis de Rougemont's Writings on Commitment (1931–1938)
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: European Philosophical Studies Pages: 310 Language: Italian Abstract: In September 1946, in his address to the first Rencontres Internationales of Geneva, Denis de Rougemont denounced the conformism of those intellectuals who, by joining a political party, believed they were committing themselves, while in fact abandoning their proper role by subordinating thought to a ready-made worldview. This speech serves as a touchstone for a conception of commitment that Rougemont had developed throughout the 1930s, one that offered an alternative to the model that would come to dominate the postwar period with Sartre's figure of the intellectuel engagé. If the human being, understood as a person, is at once free and responsible, then genuine commitment consists in the "refusal of every form of enlistment" and in accepting the risks inherent in remaining faithful not to a cause or an ideology, but to one's own vocation. The essays collected in this volume trace the internal development of this personalist conception of intellectual work, born out of a critical engagement with Marxism and its political manifestations, and illuminate what was ultimately at stake: not only the struggle for intellectual hegemony in a Europe marked by the rise of fascism, but also the formulation of an integral federalism for Europe, a project to which Rougemont would devote much of his work in the decades that followed.

Automatico-autonomo. AI nel disegno di progetto | Automatic-autonomous. AI in project design
type: item
description: Editor: DADI_ PRESS Series: Reports of DADI institutional research activities - Department of Architecture and Industrial Design. University of Campania Luigi Vanvitelli Pages: 301 Language: Italian and English Abstract: Artificial Intelligence is profoundly reshaping the ways in which architectural design is conceived, represented, and communicated, opening unprecedented perspectives that encompass drawing, design, and the culture of the architectural project. Within this context of rapid technological transformation, this volume offers a critical reflection on the relationship between human creativity and intelligent systems, examining not only the opportunities offered by emerging technologies but also the ethical, cultural, and professional implications of their use. The book brings together the contributions presented at the Third Seminar of the PhD Programme in Architecture, Industrial Design, and Cultural Heritage (2023), devoted to Artificial Intelligence as a new frontier in design experimentation. Through a range of disciplinary perspectives, the authors address issues related to representation, architectural design, visual communication, computational design, education, and the evolving role of the architect, providing a comprehensive overview of the transformations currently taking place. Rather than seeking definitive answers, the volume encourages the development of a critical and informed perspective on the use of Artificial Intelligence, recognizing it as a tool capable of enhancing design thinking without replacing the sensitivity, cultural awareness, and sense of responsibility that are inherent to human intelligence. It is intended for scholars, practitioners, and students interested in understanding one of the most significant challenges facing contemporary architectural design.

Fractures. Crisis and Myth in the Twentieth Century
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: School of Human and Social Sciences. Working Papers Pages: 163 Language: Italian Abstract: The twentieth century is often interpreted as a time of profound discontinuity and rupture with a millennial-old cultural tradition. However, the enduring presence of myth as a unifying principle of meaning challenges this perception. This volume takes an interdisciplinary approach to explore the interplay between rupture and myth, encompassing philosophy, history, literature and the arts. What role does myth play in an era that perceives itself as being in radical discontinuity with the past? Is rupture merely an interruption, or also a moment of re-composition and re-writing of meaning?

Prospettive linguistiche e letterarie dell’isolamento
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Quaderni della ricerca - 7 ISSN: 2724-5519 Pages: 362 Language: Italian Abstract: The present volume brings together a selection of papers presented at the Graduate Conference Islands and Bridges: Towards a Linguistic and Literary Topology of Isolation, held at the University of Naples “L’Orientale” from 18 to 20 October 2021. The contributions explore isolation as a complex and multifaceted phenomenon grounded in the self/other dichotomy, a fundamental dimension of identity formation from both sociolinguistic and cultural perspectives. Divided into five sections, the volume brings literary and linguistic approaches into dialogue, showcasing the wide range of perspectives through which isolation can be examined. The first section focuses on self-narration and identity construction, presenting writing as a privileged space for negotiating the relationship between the self and the external world. The second explores the tension between individual solitude and reintegration into the community, while the third examines forms of political and ideological exclusion as represented in literary texts. The fourth section explores isolation from a linguistic perspective, emphasizing that linguistic varieties are never truly isolated. While they preserve their distinctive features, they are continually shaped through contact and interaction. The fifth section addresses solitude and marginalization from both linguistic and literary perspectives, highlighting both the negative dimension of isolation—such as linguistic discrimination within a community—and its positive dimension, as a space for self-reflection or a source of belonging within a close-knit community. Taken together, these contributions offer a rich and multifaceted account of isolation, inviting readers to reconsider the many forms and meanings this phenomenon can assume.

Climate change and sustainability of territories between environmental and anthropogenic risks
type: item
description: Editore: EUC - Edizioni Università di Cassino Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 331 Language: Italian Abstract: What does it mean to inhabit the planet today? This volume addresses the question by bringing into dialogue diverse fields of knowledge and forms of expression: from environmental sciences to law, from mathematics to the social sciences, from philosophy to literature. Organized into three sections – ethical, cultural and literary frameworks; tools and governance for the sustainability of territories; and the role of universities and research – the volume offers a transdisciplinary perspective on climate change as at once a scientific, political, and symbolic issue. The territory is conceived as both a site of crisis and a space of experimentation, where relationships between humans, non-humans, and technology are being reconfigured. The essays explore not only risks and transformations, but also possible responses: sustainable models, strategies for mitigation and adaptation, practices of cohabitation, and new forms of awareness. Ultimately, the volume invites readers to rethink ecological transition as a cultural and social process, as well as a technical one, grounded in shared responsibility and intergenerational justice.

De gerendo magistratu
type: item
description: | Series: Digital Humanities, 12 Language: Italian, Latin Published: 2026 ISBN:978-88-945152-2-0 Abstract: This edition presents the critical text, translation, and commentary of De gerendo magistratu by the Sienese humanist Francesco Patrizi, an epistolary treatise addressed on 13 January 1446 to the young Achille Petrucci, who had just been elected Prior of Siena. Written at the height of Sienese political Humanism, the work constitutes Patrizi’s first systematic political reflection and anticipates key themes developed in his later De institutione reipublicae and De regno. It takes the form of a true institutio: a program of political education in which the exercise of power is grounded in the magistrate’s virtue and in the ability to translate humanistic learning into the practice of government. Based on the examination of the twelve manuscript witnesses currently known, four of which had not previously been identified, this edition reconstructs the textual tradition and reception of a work that had remained unpublished until now. Soon detached from its original occasion, the treatise came to be regarded as an autonomous model of reflection on the statesman and the res publica. Digital edition in XML and PDF, with the first italian translation. Publication made with the contribution provided by the Directorate-General for Education, Research and Cultural Institutes of the Ministry of Culture.

Nero
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Texts. Antiquity, Middle Ages and Humanism Pages: 291 Language: Italian/Greek Abstract: Among the spurious works in the corpus of Lucian of Samosata is a dialogue entitled Nero, where two characters – an unidentified Menecrates and the famous Stoic philosopher Musonius Rufus – discuss some topics related to Nero and his activities in Greece. This volume presents a new edition of the dialogue, which has thus far received scanty attention from scholars. The introduction addresses issues dealing with the work’s title and authorship, its relationship with other texts from the Imperial age that mention Nero, its language, style, manuscript tradition and printed editions up to the most recent one, published by Matthew D. Macleod in 1987. This is followed by the Greek text of Nero, based on the aforementioned edition, but with some deviations, and a new Italian translation, the first since Luigi Settembrini’s in 1862. A detailed commentary is then offered for the first time, including philological, linguistic, historical and literary analyses. The volume concludes with an extensive bibliography and three indexes, dedicated to notable Greek words and expressions, principal cited passages and topics respectively.

Literatura y mar / Letteratura e mare
type: item
description: Publisher: Department of Arts and Humanities Università degli Studi di Salerno (DipSum) Series: Collection of Studies and Texts. From ancient Babel to the encounters of Modernity Pages: 362 Language: Italian, Spanish Abstract: The essays collected in the volume Literatura y mar / Letteratura e mare examine, from literary, linguistic and historiographical perspectives, works by Latin American writers that engage with the sea, as well as the cultural output produced in exile by authors forced to cross oceans and continents. Sixteen authors from Italy, Argentina, Spain, Venezuela, Chile, Mexico and Brazil have illustrated the manifold meanings of humanity’s relationship with the sea: a boundary that is reached and beyond which it is difficult to advance, but also an opportunity, the yearning to go beyond the known, the very will to overcome that boundary; and it is water that cradles and envelops us, life and infinite movement, the search for a distant Eldorado or a closer hope of survival. And it is also the water of the oceans that swallows the bodies of the desaparecidos, destined for oblivion by civil-military dictatorships but redeemed by memory and the tireless work of literature and human rights movements.

From cives Romani to Cymry. Ethnic processes and identity construction in Western Britain between Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Clio. Essays in History, Archaeology and Art History Pages: 432 Language: Italian Abstract: The transition of Britain from Roman rule to the Early Middle Ages has long been described as a dark age, marked by a power vacuum filled only by invasions and ruin. This book seeks to overturn this perspective, analysing post-Roman Britain as a vibrant laboratory of cultural identities. Through an interdisciplinary analysis that weaves together archaeological, epigraphic, and literary evidence, the volume traces the metamorphosis of elites and social structures in the western regions of the island between the fourth and tenth centuries. From the transformation of provincial aristocracies to the emergence of the local church, from "big men" who adorned themselves with Roman titles to the birth of a new collective identity of "compatriots" (Cymry), the book explores how a sense of community enabled Romano-British elites to resist and redefine themselves during the turbulent centuries that marked the end of Roman Britain and the dawn of the political mosaic of medieval England, Wales, and Cornwall. Through an in-depth examination of the sources, the book analyses how the memory of Romanitas was dismantled and reassembled to give rise to new forms of collective identities. From the fierce invective of Gildas, which transforms the political crisis into an influential moral and religious drama, to the anti-British systematization operated by Bede, up to the extraordinary synthesis of the Historia Brittonum, where myth and history merge to legitimize the ideological position of the Britons, the book retraces the key stages of a complex history of identity construction and oppositional representations: a literary ethnogenesis that lasted for centuries and remains ongoing.

Via Appia Regina Viarum. UNESCO World Heritage Site
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 167 Language: Italian Abstract: The inscription of the Via Appia Regina Viarum on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2024 marks a milestone in the protection and enhancement of one of the Mediterranean’s most significant cultural routes. This volume brings together the outcomes and reflections developed during the Forum promoted by the Culture Commission of Rotary District 2101 at the Royal Site of Carditello, with a particular focus on the Campanian section of the ancient road. The essays explore the historical, archaeological, landscape and cultural values that define this territory, highlighting the relationship between tangible and intangible heritage, collective memory and local identities. The result is a portrait of a complex and layered cultural system, where heritage conservation and enhancement are closely linked to local development strategies. From this perspective, UNESCO recognition is not only an important international acknowledgment, but also an opportunity to strengthen the connection between heritage, place and communities, fostering cultural growth, participation and sustainable development.

Views of Constantinople: Literary Imaginaries of the Gateway to the East at the Dawn of Modernity
type: item
description: Editor: FedOA -Federico II University Press Series: Orion. Studies and texts of Italian literature Page: 127 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume brings together studies on the travel writings of Italian visitors to the Ottoman Empire and its capital during the period spanning the late eighteenth century and the end of the reform era known as the Tanzimat (1788–1878), a time marked by the gradual Westernization of Ottoman social and political practices. Through an analysis of the works of Giovan Battista Casti, Cristina Trivulzio di Belgiojoso, and Edmondo De Amicis—alongside an extensive concluding historiographical reflection—the book traces a shift in the perception and representation of Ottoman otherness. The threatening image inherited from the early modern age gives way to a more distinctly exotic sensibility, imbued with a melancholic nostalgia for a lost grandeur.

SPLASCH. A shared platform for Cultural Heritage
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 334 Language: Abstract: The S.PL.A.S.C.H. project, Smart Platform and Applications for Southern Cultural Heritage (CH), aims to develop a platform that promotes cultural heritage applied to Italian architectural and archaeological sites, ancient villages and morphological-architectural structures in order to combine fragmented and incomplete data from various sources and foster accessibility and appreciation of cultural heritage, by increasing user engagement and active participation. The main objective of the project is to reconnect cultural heritage with the sites' own physical and social geography by implementing an integrated tangible and virtual network of sites. This network will gradually increment the number of entities and relationships identified within the case studies, evolving into a widespread and inclusive museum with a specific focus on Southern Italian heritage. The platform – based on 3D models – has been structured according to a sequence of interrelated operations involving the census, integrated survey, representation, digitisation, valorisation, and dissemination of cultural heritage. The reference structure is designed to be highly open, allowing operators to proactively enhance the set of services granted by the project, including the development of integrated software applications (API – Application Programming Interface). Thus, the platform will be able to accommodate models and data from other existing CH platforms, different research centres, or diverse stakeholders, thereby ensuring its future sustainability and usability, as well as strengthening interactions between universities and research institutes. The project fosters participation in the Horizon Europe 2021-27 framework programme, capitalising on European standards concerning the use of digital technologies for cultural heritage, while also following the guidelines of the Three-Year Plan for Museum Digital…

Śaiva–Buddhist Encounters in Medieval India
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Studies on the History of Śaivism Pages: 397 Languages: English Abstract: Śaiva–Buddhist Encounters in Medieval India brings together a group of scholars from across disciplines to explore the dynamic interactions between these two traditions. The contributions examine how Śaivism and Buddhism coexisted, competed, and creatively borrowed from one another—from royal courts and monastic institutions to artistic workshops and literary circles. Drawing on epigraphic, archaeological, art historical, and literary sources, the essays illuminate the fluid boundaries of the medieval religious landscape of South Asia. They trace the layered affiliations of kings and patrons, alongside the shared idioms that shaped poetry, iconography, ritual, and philosophy. Offering a fresh perspective on the history of the subcontinent, this collection is essential reading for anyone engaged in the study of South Asia’s diverse religious past.

Material Culture, Traditional Architecture and Innovative Bioregional Products
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 196 Language: Italian Abstract: Material Culture, Traditional Architecture and Innovative Bioregional Products address the theme of sustainability in architecture through a critical reflection on the relationship between territory, materials, and construction processes. Edited by Paola De Joanna and Dora Francese, the volume advocates overcoming building models based on the indiscriminate consumption of resources, instead promoting local supply chains, bioregional materials, and the recovery of traditional knowledge. The first part of the book examines the raw materials available in the Campania region—such as hemp, wool, giant reed, and stone materials—highlighting their environmental, technological, and cultural potential. Architecture is interpreted not only as a technical practice but also as a means of restoring balance between human beings, ecosystems, and landscapes. Central to the discussion is the concept of the bioregion, understood as a territorial system in which resources, culture, and local communities are deeply interconnected. The text also explores criteria for the ecosystem-based assessment of materials and proposes a certification protocol for innovative and sustainable building products, based on environmental, social, and cultural indicators. The second part focuses on the reuse of agricultural waste and the application of low-carbon materials in seismic-resistant construction and energy retrofit interventions. Agricultural by-products are thus redefined as valuable resources capable of generating new circular economies and local production chains. Through case studies and experimental applications, the volume demonstrates how technological innovation and tradition can be integrated to reduce the environmental impact of the construction sector, improve building energy performance, and strengthen local identity. The book therefore represents both a theoretical and practica…

Sovereign Corporations : Intellectual History and Political Philosophy of the British South Africa Company
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: School of Human and Social Sciences. Working Papers Pages: 163 Language: English Abstract: In this book, the history of the British South Africa Company becomes a window into one of the central contradictions of modern empire: the transformation of a profit-driven corporation into a sovereign political power. Moving between intellectual history, political philosophy, and settler-colonial studies, the book reconstructs the myths through which the Company justified the conquest and governance of Rhodesia from the late nineteenth century onward. Drawing extensively on the Company’s own archives, reports, and propaganda, the book traces six major myths of legitimation: lawful occupation through treaties, the fight against the slave trade, the protection of the Shona from the Ndebele, settler self-defence, the “white man’s burden,” and the racial mythology surrounding Great Zimbabwe. It shows how these narratives were not static ideological ornaments, but strategic responses to Indigenous resistance, imperial competition, economic interests, and crises of colonial rule. At the same time, the book confronts a broader theoretical question that remains strikingly contemporary: what happens when sovereignty escapes the limits of the state? Engaging thinkers from Hobbes and Weber to Gramsci and Arrighi, the book examines the chartered company as a political form that blurs the boundaries between corporation, empire, and government. Combining archival research with political and philosophical analysis, Sovereign Corporations offers a new perspective on colonial power, corporate sovereignty, and the enduring relationship between capitalism and empire.

The Great Archive of the Camera della Sommaria: reorganizations and reclassifications from the 17th to the 20th century
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Regna. Texts and Studies on Institutions, Culture and Memory in Medieval Southern Italy Pages: 275 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume examines the reorganizations and reclassifications that concerned the so-called Archivum Magnum of the Regia Camera della Sommaria between the 17th and 20th centuries. Not to be confused with the Grande Archivio del Regno (i.e., the current Archivio di Stato of Naples), the Archivum Magnum was the most important of the Sommaria’s archives. Gianluca Falcucci describes the efforts to recover, both directly and indirectly, the Sommaria’s records following the pillaging of the Archive on September 23, 1701, when, in the context of the Macchia Conspiracy, the Neapolitan people assaulted Castel Capuano—the Archive’s location—throwing thousands of documents out the windows and setting them to fire. For nearly two decades, the two archivists Antonio and Gregorio De Masi—father and son—devoted themselves to this recovery effort; their careers and activities are reconstructed here for the first time. Gianluca Bocchetti and Davide Passerini investigate the origins of the Diversi and Dipendenze series of the Sommaria, among the most important for the richness and variety of late medieval and modern documents, highlighting how the two series are essentially the result of reclassification efforts begun in the 19th century, following the transfer of the documents from Castel Capuano to the monastery of SS. Severino e Sossio. This volume publishes valuable reference tools for historical and archival research: descriptions of De Masi inventories and of the main documentary nuclei of the Diversi of the Sommaria (feudal archives, documents relating to important offices and to the Sommaria), as well as the analytical index of the Diversi (794 archival units from the 15th century to 1839).

Understanding Media? Senses of Memetic Age
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Human & Future Pages: 142 Language: Italian Abstract: This work aims to reflect on the modes of expression, communication, and sharing of "memetic culture" as a direct expression of the infosphere. Specifically, the contributions within the text attempt to outline a definition of the meme - a fluid and constantly changing artifact – and reflect on the question of individual creativity and cultural sharing and on the relationship between reality and simulacrum, as well as orality and writing. The meme's fragile ontological nature makes it difficult even to attempt a definition. The meme is a sign of the times par excellence, the vivid representation of our hermeneutic impasse, our inability to define a reality so fluid that it eludes any kind of hypostatization; it blends individualism and participatory culture, ushering in unprecedented ritual practices and shaping the major political and social events of our time. Our attempt is to access the meanings of memetic time: this polymorphous plural not only indicates the protean nature of the meme artifact that eludes univocal interpretation, but also evokes the re-immersion described by McLuhan, produced by new technological extensions that completely envelop our senses, definitively transforming the sequential and linear human being produced by writing - a transformation whose scope is still difficult to grasp.

Sotto il prisma di Stuart Hall. Esercizi di analisi collettiva della colonialità del presente in Italia e in Europa
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 146 Language: Italian Abstract: The volume emerges from a collective pedagogical experience at the Università degli Studi di Napoli L'Orientale, where students enrolled in the MA programme Identity Processes and Global Scenarios developed a theoretical and political reflection on the thought of Stuart Hall, ten years after his death. The essays collected here constitute exercises in analysing the “coloniality of the present” in Italy and Europe, conceived not as conventional academic papers but as practices of shared and processual thinking. The project draws inspiration from the model of the Working Papers of the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies, privileging the collective dimension of knowledge production and the situated translation of Hall’s concepts. The editor’s role intervenes only as a form of philological and formal “punctuation” within a work that belongs entirely to the students, who are the authors both of the essays and of their interpretative directions.The book positions itself as a critical response to the “banking model of education” denounced by Paulo Freireand to the growing neoliberalization of the university, marked by the corporatization of knowledge, quantitative evaluation systems, and the standardized use of pedagogical devices such as PowerPoint. Drawing also on the work of bell hooks, Henry Giroux, Pierre Bourdieu and Jacques Rancière, the volume advocates a dialogical, participatory, and decolonial pedagogy capable of restoring subjectivity and agency to students, while reclaiming the university as a space for critical and collective formation. Taken as a whole, Under the Prism of Stuart Hall is both a testimony and a political act: an attempt to reopen the possibility of an “other language” within the neoliberal university, a “murmur” — to borrow the expression of Roland Barthes — that resists managerial and market-oriented language, and restores to Hall’s thought its most vital …

Aracne2. A modular platform for the editing and publication of TEI corpora
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Historical Knowledges and New Technologies Pages: 56 Language: Italian Abstract: Aracne2 is a modular CMS for editing and publishing scholarly corpora encoded in TEI. Designed for philologists, historians, archivists, and digital editors, it enables typewritten transcriptions to be transformed into citable, searchable, and machine-actionable digital editions, without requiring advanced system-administration skills. The project stems from a long-standing experience in tools for digital editing: from MaRa, developed from 2008 onwards for the automatic markup of the Registers of the Angevin Chancery, to Aracne, a platform based on eXist-db and XQuery, used between 2016 and 2024 for several scholarly editions. Aracne2 retains eXist-db as the native archive for TEI documents, while entrusting authentication, workflows, plugins, and integrations to a Python/FastAPI/PostgreSQL backend, with a Vue 3 interface. The platform stands out for its clear separation between the state of the corpus and the state of the system, its extensible plugin architecture, and the integration of AI-assisted tools. Different providers — OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and local Ollama — can be configured within a customizable prompt library, with retrieval-augmented generation functions anchored in the TEI P5 Guidelines and in the user's own corpus. The volume presents the editorial and technical model of Aracne2, reconstructs its genesis, and reflects on the use of artificial intelligence as an integrated editorial tool, rather than as a merely conversational add-on.

RICORDI, PENSIERI E PAESAGGI DELL’ORIENTE. Un’esplorazione nei fondi della Biblioteca Universitaria di Napoli e nell’archivio della Missione Archeologica Italiana a Tell Barri
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 308 Language: Italian Abstract: The volume is the result of a long-standing collaboration between BUN (University Library of Naples) and MAITB(Italian Archaeological Expedition at Tell Barri/Kahat), and documents a series of exhibitions and seminars held between 2022 and 2023. The first part of the volume presents the exhibition catalogue, organized into four thematic sections – Memories, Thoughts, Landscapes, and Itineraries – which guide the reader through the valuable bibliographic collections of the BUN, including incunabula, atlases, and travel accounts dating from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. These materials are accompanied by a striking photographic selection drawn from the archives of MAITB about some ancient sites in Lebanon, Syria, and Turkey, and daily life scenes. The second part brings together specialist essays that explore the theme of travel to the East from different perspectives: nineteenth-century travel literature; the analysis of early cartography; a comparison with journeys to the West; and Naples’ relationship with the East, including Neapolitan publishing and encounters among scholars, the book collections of the University “L’Orientale” of Naples, and the archaeological finds preserved in the MANN. The volume concludes with a reflection on the relationship between archaeology and politics, from the ancient world to the contemporary age. The work, which offers a reflection on the myth of the East and its representation in European and Neapolitan culture, does not merely provide a scholarly retrospective, but also seeks to keep attention alive on the cultural heritage of Syria and neighboring countries, which is today at risk.

Nation – Migration. Philosophische, linguistische und literarische Erkundungen
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: School of Human and Social Sciences. Working Papers Pages: 288 Language: German Abstract: One of the nation’s fundamental characteristics is the principle of exclusion. It lays claim to a territory it regards as its natural right, within which it realises itself in an ongoing process, whilst its self-determined criteria of identity and belonging exclude everything that retains not belong—both within and outside the national territory—as foreign. Migration is fundamentally at odds with this, as it crosses such boundaries at every level. The papers presented at the ‘Nation-Migration’ conference (Naples, 29 September–1 October 2023) address this issue in relation to German-speaking culture from philosophical, linguistic and, above all, literary-historical perspectives, , spanning from Romanticism through the period of Nazi fascism, Modernism, Postmodernism, the fall of the Wall and the communist dictatorships, up to the right‑wing extremist movements in contemporary Germany.

Naples Dante Project
type: item
description: Series: Miscellaneous Language: Italian/English Abstract: The Naples Dante Project (NDP) is a digital infrastructure for the study of the tradition of Dante’s Commedia and its exegetical and iconographic apparatuses, founded and directed by Gennaro Ferrante. The project is conceived as an online aggregator of interoperable databases devoted to the manuscript, printed, and iconographic tradition of the poem, developed according to semantic standards (CIDOC-CRM/LRMoo) and interoperability protocols (IIIF). The project is grounded in the awareness that the tradition of the Commedia represents a limit case for computational approaches, due to the scale of the corpus (around six hundred manuscripts, more than one hundred and thirty fragments, and numerous printed editions) and its intrinsically integrated nature, in which material support, text, language, images, and exegetical apparatuses are inseparable. The NDP_CADMUS database brings together the main corpora of the tradition: illuminated manuscripts (IDP_Illuminated Dante Project), fragments (FraC-Fragments of Commedia), printed editions (DIP_Dante in Print), and graphic cycles (DaD_Dante Drawings). These are complemented by Dante ICON, a transversal module for the indexing and comparative analysis of iconographic content, and by the DCT_Dante Critical Texts corpus, which gathers and aligns the major scholarly editions of the Commedia from 1862 onwards, making them searchable as data. Data modelling is implemented through the modular environment Cadmus and semantically represented in the ALIGHIERoo ontology, which formalises the relationships among textual, codicological, and iconographic entities and enables integration with other standards and systems. The data derive both from expert autoptic analysis of the physical supports and from automated processes based on Machine Learning models. To support the entire data lifecycle, NDP adopts the pipeline developed within the MAPP (Manuscripts Philological Pipeline) proj…

ASPETTANDO I MESSIA. La letteratura escatologica ebraica nel periodo delle crociate (XI-XIII secolo)
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Archivio di Studi Ebraici Pages: 520 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume analyses Jewish messianic and redemptive expectations during the Crusades (11th–13th centuries). This was an era of severe persecutions against Jewish communities – primarily those in Germany – who were subjected to attacks and forced conversions by crusaders marching toward Jerusalem. During this period, a large number of eschatological and apocalyptic texts were copied and reshaped. As this book suggests, their purpose was to instill hope in oppressed Jews and to comfort them in anticipation of the impending liberation from the foreign yoke that the messianic age would bring. The first part of the book presents the historical framework in which these texts circulated, while the second part offers an edition and an Italian translation of the most relevant writings.

La lunga rotta per la rigenerazione collaborativa del Molo San Vincenzo nel porto di Napoli
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 100 Language: Italian Abstract: This paper explores the work of researchers who are members of the Friends of Molo San Vincenzo, which is inspired by the principles of the Faro Convention and European documents that recognise cultural heritage and culture as key factors in sustainable development processes. Molo San Vincenzo, halfway between the past and the future, is a space of infinite potential in the heart of Naples. The dock has jutted out into the sea for centuries, a repository of stories about travellers, migrants and local residents. This work chronicles the journey of the Friends of Molo San Vincenzo, a community of local residents, researchers and professionals who have been working for fifteen years to promote it as a public asset. Walkabouts, workshops and participatory initiatives transform the dock into a hub for dialogue between the city, the port and local authorities, a place for gathering, storytelling and collaborative planning. This is a story of commitment and collaboration that shows how places take on meaning when communities inhabit them and bring them to life. These experiences have given rise to a transdisciplinary approach to study, research and action, in which different areas of expertise come together through the involvement of a wide range of social players.

Panchine rosse. Voci per Giulia Tramontano
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 132 Language: Italian Abstract: In December 2023, a red bench was installed in the courtyard of Palazzo Santa Maria Porta Coeli, home to the Department of Literary, Linguistic and Comparative Studies at the University of Naples L’Orientale, as a tangible sign of the Department’s promotion of active citizenship within its Research Project in Critical Interactions and Transitions (2022–2024). It also inspired the launch of the first Call for Ideas dedicated to the memory of Giulia Tramontano, a former student of the University, who was brutally murdered by her partner in May 2023. This volume collects all the proposals received in the different categories of the creative section of the Call in the order presented at the public event on 21 March 2025: photography, short story, poetry, digital poetry, fashion, painting, music, podcast. The initiative was not intended to select and reward the most original or most beautiful proposal, but rather to encourage broad participation and, above all, the sharing creative messages and expressions against gender-based violence. Nothing can rival the inalienable power of an authentic word that comes from one’s own experience and meets the attention of the others.

Una panchina rossa in memoria di Giulia Tramontano. Le voci de L’Orientale contro la violenza di genere
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Argos. Studies in Argumentation, Pragmatics and Stylistics Pages: 422 Language: Italian Abstract: The idea of installing a red bench in the courtyard of Palazzo Santa Maria Porta Coeli, home to the Department of Literary, Linguistic and Comparative Studies at the University of Naples L’Orientale, arose in December 2023, in response to the urgency of joining the national campaign following the discovery of Giulia Cecchettin’s murder. The bench became the symbol of active citizenship against all forms of gender-based violence and discrimination, promoted as part of the Department’s Research Project, Critical Interactions and Transitions (2022–2024), and inspired the launch of the Call for Ideas dedicated to the memory of Giulia Tramontano, a former student of the University, brutally murdered by her partner in May 2023. The selection of essays collected here offers concrete evidence of the interdisciplinary and intergenerational dialogue that emerged in response to the Call among the various voices of the academic community involved: the teaching staff, post-doc researchers, PhD students and undergraduates. The volume – organised into three areas of critical inquiry: Discursive Practices, Multimedia Screens, Literary Plots – aims to stimulate further scholarly reflection on the urgent need to refine and update our tools for narrating and interpreting reality, in order to help counter the widespread entrenchment and escalation – not only at a national but also at a global level – of manipulative and abusive forms of gender-based violence.

Ancient Egypt: New Technology
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Studi Africanistici - Egyptological Series Pages: 364 Language: English Abstract: The volume presents a selection of papers of the International Conference Ancient Egypt – New Technology hosted for its second edition by the Department of Asia, Africa and Mediterranean of the University of Naples L'Orientale, 5–7 July 2023. The volume highlights the growing integration of digital technologies within Egyptology. Methods such as laser scanning, photogrammetry, 3D modelling, and non-invasive imaging have significantly enhanced the documentation, analysis, and preservation of archaeological data and artefacts. The contributions reflect the interdisciplinary nature of this field, bringing together scholars from Egyptology, archaeology, anthropology, conservation, and digital heritage studies. Alongside innovative approaches, the volume also considers established diagnostic techniques, such as X-rays and CT scans, as essential tools for research. Overall, the volume underscores the importance of collaboration between the humanities and technological disciplines, offering an overview of current methodologies and future directions in the study and dissemination of the ancient Egyptian past.

Languages, Writings, and Society in Langobard Italy. Paths in Historical Sociolinguistics
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: School of Human and Social Sciences. Working Papers Pages: 721 Language: Italian Abstract: In this volume, linguistics and history, in all their different dimensions, come together to offer a new reading of Langobard Italy, grounded also in dialogue with philology, archaeology, art history, legal history, musicology, and the study of the material forms of texts and documents. The essays collected here examine lexicons, writing systems, documentary practices, institutions, and social contexts, showing how only a close engagement between different perspectives can do justice to the complexity of the early medieval world. The result is a volume that is at once historical and methodological, analytical and reflective, helping to renew the tools of research while restoring the plurality and richness of Langobard societies.

Jesuits Gold. Faith, Influence, and the Economy of Grace in Early Modern Naples
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Clio. Essays in History, Archaeology and Art History Pages: 408 Language: Italian Abstract: This book explores the history of the Jesuit Province of Naples, from its arrival in the Kingdom of Naples to the expulsion of 1767. By examining the Order’s organizational strategies over the long term, the study reveals how the Jesuits adapted to the political and social challenges of the Kingdom. The analysis focuses on power dynamics, cultural battles, and the Jesuits peculiar role as “clerical-barons” in the Lucanian fiefs of Latronico and Policoro. Moving between ambitions and internal crises, the book shows how the fate of this influential Province was connected from the major global transformations of the time. The book ends by following the lives of former Jesuits after the Order’s suppression, as they searched for a new identity amidst the storms of revolution.

Spedizioni ed esplorazioni scientifiche nei fondi della Biblioteca Universitaria di Napoli. Secoli XVI-XIX
type: item
description: Editor: FedOA -Federico II University Press Series: Cavoliniana. Monographies of the Società dei Naturalisti in Napoli Page: 118 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume originates from the bibliographic exhibition "Scientific Expeditions and Explorations from the 16th to the 19th Century: Places and Discoveries in the Collections of the University Library of Naples", inaugurated on November 15, 2023, and curated by the authors of the present work. The corpus of selected works derives primarily from the Fondo Palatino of the University Library—one of the principal collections that once formed the Royal Library of Ferdinand IV of Bourbon.The Fondo includes, among other materials, scientific treatises and accounts of voyages and explorations which stand out not only for their historical and scientific value, but also for their exquisite craftsmanship, with volumes adorned by original illustrations executed by renowned Italian and foreign artists. Expanding upon the contents and research fields addressed in the exhibition, this volume also aims to provide a broader overview of scientific inquiry between the 16th and 19th centuries, highlighting significant methodological advancements. In this regard, the contributions by Antonio Borrelli and Antonino Pollio respectively trace the evolution of scientific expeditions in the modern era and the development of botanical science, with particular attention to the conditions that led 18th-century naturalists in the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies to collect essential data for the classification and cataloguing of the Kingdom’s flora. Enriched by a substantial iconographic apparatus, the volume is intended to be accessible not only to specialists, but also to the general readership with an interest in the history of science and exploration.

Invisible Barriers. Educational Poverty and Inequality in Naples and Its Province—Models, Data, and Voices
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 152 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume presents the research findings on educational poverty from a study launched in 2022 as part of a project funded by the University of Naples Federico II (MAPO Project – Measuring and mApping educational POverty, coordinated by Prof. Cristina Davino – Department of Economics and Statistics) and continued until 2025 through a second project, Invisible Barriers, carried out in collaboration with Save the Children’s Research Centre and with the support of the GRINS project – Growing Resilient, inclusive and Sustainable, funded by the Ministry of University and Research as part of the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. The study proposes an innovative and multidimensional approach to measuring educational poverty, integrating objective and subjective indicators and focussing on the voices, perceptions and aspirations of young people. The research, conducted among adolescents aged between 15 and 19 living in Naples and its province, combines quantitative and qualitative methodologies, involving over 4,000 young people, both school leavers and current students. The focus on young people’s lived experiences brings to light latent dimensions of educational poverty and reveals the ‘invisible barriers’ that limit opportunities for growth. The results provide a detailed picture of educational inequalities in the Neapolitan context, highlighting the direct contribution of adolescents as a key element in understanding the phenomenon and offering a comprehensive overview that, it is hoped, will be of value to institutions and stakeholders.

Ethics of Potentia. Spinozian Pathways
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 234 Language: Italian Abstract: What is produced when a classic is wrested from the stillness of reverential exegesis and rigorously returned to the living point of its friction with the present? The Ethics of Potentia takes shape within this question: not as a pacified compendium of interpretations, but as a torsional field, an open threshold traversed by heterogeneous lines that, in Spinoza’s Ethics, find both a center of gravity and a site of collision. The contributions gathered here do not seek to harmonize Spinoza along a monolithic exegetical axis; rather, they endeavor to weave a fabric of differences, diffractions, proximities, and displacements, in which Spinozist concepts are pushed and inflected—without ever being distorted—through dialogue with other interlocutors, disciplines, and urgencies of thought. Originating within the “Laboratory on the Classics” promoted by the MA program in Philosophy at the University of Naples Federico II, the volume unfolds along a double trajectory. On the one hand, it offers a historical-philological and conceptual investigation of Spinoza’s work, developed through rigorous engagements with Descartes, Hobbes, Jacobi, Hegel, and Brentano, and structured around decisive theoretical focus: the mos geometricus as an ethical and political instrument; the single substance; attributes and modes; the three kinds of knowledge; and the conatus as the essence of the singular thing. On the other hand, it tests Spinoza as a reference for contemporary thought, placing him in dialogue with Nietzsche, Deleuze and Guattari, Lacan and Leopardi, as well as with new materialism and eco-cyborg-transfeminist theories. What emerges is a heterogeneous and plural Spinoza, capable of traversing mathematics and ontology, psychoanalysis and phenomenology, literature, perception, and the new materialisms. The themes of potentia as ontological affirmation, liberation from teleo…

Patient Journey and Real-World Effectiveness in Patients with Rare Diseases: The Case of Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia
type: item
description: Publishers: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Pharmàkon Pages: 61 Language: Italian Abstract: In the current context characterised by the growing, and often hypertrophic, availability of healthcare data, the mere accumulation of information does not necessarily translate into evidence that is useful for decision-making processes. This issue is particularly relevant in the field of rare diseases, where the limited number of cases and the need for highly specialised care pathways make it essential to adopt a methodological approach capable of integrating heterogeneous sources of information. In this scenario, chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) assumes particular significance. This rare haematological malignancy has undergone a profound transformation in its clinical course following the introduction of tyrosine kinase inhibitors, a therapeutic breakthrough that has rendered systematic monitoring of treatment effectiveness indispensable in real-world clinical practice. This volume aims to analyse the patient journey of individuals affected by rare oncological conditions through analytical models based on the integration of administrative and clinical databases. Administrative databases enable longitudinal observation of large population cohorts and the reconstruction of therapeutic trajectories over extended periods, while clinical databases provide essential information for interpreting treatment changes and patient response. The systematic integration of these sources is therefore a prerequisite for producing real-world effectiveness evidence and for strengthening pharmaceutical governance processes. Through the analysis of the case of CML, this work highlights how the combined use of clinical and administrative data facilitates a more comprehensive understanding of care pathways, supporting informed decision-making in terms of prescribing appropriateness, healthcare planning, and service organisation. In this perspective, the integrated data approach represe…

Displaying Art: Exhibition Choices of Italian Museums Through Time
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Clio. Essays in History, Archaeology and Art History Pages: 240 Language: English Abstract: Displaying Art: Exhibition Choices of Italian Museums Through Time brings together a series of methodologically oriented studies that examine the history of Italian museum displays through the critical use of visual documentation. Developed within the PRIN 2022 project The Forms of the Museum: Pilot-Project for a Digital Atlas of Italian Museums, funded by the Italian Ministry of University and Research (MUR) and the European Union, the volume explores the epistemic potential of a large, structured corpus of images for reconstructing and interpreting exhibition practices across time. Through case studies on the Uffizi, Brera, Parma, L’Aquila, and the American reception of Italian museums, the essays treat photographs, illustrated periodicals, postcards, guides, films, and other visual materials as primary documents rather than mere illustrations. In doing so, they show how museum displays were not only arranged and transformed, but also circulated, interpreted, and made meaningful for different publics, highlighting the role of images in shaping institutional narratives, public reception, and cultural value. At the center of the volume is the Digital Atlas of Italian Museums (DAIM), conceived not simply as a repository, but as a research tool that enables comparison, relational analysis, and new interpretative perspectives. The book offers an original contribution to museum history while demonstrating the broader interdisciplinary value of visual sources for the study of cultural politics, public memory, and the social life of images.

Socio-economic dynamics between the centre and the peripheral areas in the late medieval Southern Italy
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Regna. Texts and Studies on Institutions, Culture and Memory in Medieval Southern Italy Pages: 273 Language: Italian Abstract: This volume is the result of the important cataloguing and textual analysis carried out on the records of the Regia Camera della Sommaria – the subject of the PRIN research project – through a series of thematic studies focusing on the political, economic and social dynamics (at various levels) of the late medieval Southern Italy or of specific areas. Due to the ongoing dialogue between historiography and various types of sources (fiscal, administrative, statutory, notarial, accounting, iconographic, material, etc.), attention has been drawn to Mediterranean trade and commercial actors, including their financial activities; resources and supplies, between centre and periphery, roles and competences; lords, cities, communities – including minority ones – in terms of patrimonial, legal-administrative aspects, relationships and forms of negotiation; social dynamics, encompassing influences, preferences and changes. The hope is that we have highlighted certain elements that demonstrate the central – and at the same time complex – role of the late medieval Southern Italy in the processes of transformation of European society, between the Middle Ages and the early modern period.

Reason, Rhetoric and Science in Thomas Hobbes
type: item
description: Editore: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Miscellaneous Pages: 172 Language: Italian/English Abstract: What can Thomas Hobbes still teach us about the world we live in? At a time marked by the erosion of the public sphere, the accelerating pace of social life, the digital reshaping of power, and changing understandings of the relationship between truth, science, and politics, Leviathan remains an indispensable classic. This volume brings together essays by scholars and students involved in the Political Philosophy course in the MA programme in Philosophy at the Department of Humanities of the Abstract: University of Naples Federico II, as well as in the teaching project that grew out of it. It emerges from a broader programme of study and research centred on the relationship between reason, rhetoric, and science in Hobbes’s thought, approached not simply as a matter of historical reconstruction, but as a critical resource for thinking through the tensions and contradictions of modernity. Ranging from political theology and anthropology to theories of sovereignty, the crisis of democracy, and contemporary forms of the infosphere and public communication, the essays collected here show just how much is still to be gained from reading Hobbes and from thinking with him. The result is a rich and wide-ranging collection in which political thought engages directly with the problems of the present, bringing out the enduring power of an author who continues to challenge, unsettle, and reshape the way we think about ourselves and about politics.

Sustainable Musicology. A Paradigm Shift across the Humanities
type: item
description: Publisher: FedOA - Federico II University Press Series: Musical Clefs Pages: 125 Language: Italian Abstract: Sustainability is a key concept not only in ecology and economics, but in epistemology as well. It touches on ethics, intergenerational relations, and the responsible use of new technologies. In the age of artificial intelligence, the decisive question for the humanities is not whether machines can replace researchers, but whether research itself is losing its direction, its meaning, and its sense of responsibility. This book treats musicology as an emblematic case of a crisis that threatens the entire ecosystem of contemporary academia, caught between the publish-or-perish imperative and the vulnerabilities of the Digital Humanities. Yet the book offers more than a diagnosis. Starting from musicology, it outlines strategies for a paradigm shift applicable across the humanities: favouring intellectual depth over quantitative output, dialogue over disciplinary silos, long-term cultural impact over immediate results. But the highest stakes lie in building a greater capacity to respond to the growing entropy of the academic system. The goal is a research culture that is effective and timely, capable of depth, and able to generate genuine social relevance.

THE ITALIAN ARCHAEOLOGICAL MISSION IN AFGHANISTAN. THE COINS FROM TAPA SARDAR AND GHAZNI
type: item
description: Publisher: UniorPress Series: Series Maior Pages: 398 Language: English Abstract: The volume focuses on the study of the coins discovered in the region of Ghazni during the excavations carried out by the Italian Archaeological Mission in Afghanistan between 1956 and 1978 in the areas of the Buddhist complex of Tapa Sardar and the Islamic sites. It is an as yet unpublished corpus of excavated coins that have unfortunately been lost. However, thanks to archival documentation and the plaster casts made after the coins were found, it has been possible to resume and deepen the investigation in recent years. Arranged and described in a catalogue, the 227 coins cover a wide chronological range and testify to the long history of the Ghazni region—from antiquity to the present day—which greatly enhances our understanding of the political and economic history of the region. The coins are presented in two sections: The first contains coins from the 2nd to 8th centuries, the second from the 9th to 20th centuries. Each section is accompanied by a detailed numismatic analysis and enriched by updated archaeological contributions on Tapa Sardar, the Ghaznavid Palace and the House of Lustreswares.
