In a short time, it was an explosion of tweets related to the hashtag #coronavirus on Twitter. With the aim of reconstructing the meanings of the hashtag and the content, in terms of sentiment and opinions, of the reactions of the Italians, we collected in a la…

Fuerza de un signo. Perspectivas teóricas para el análisis de los hashtags
Los hashtags representan una forma extremadamente simple, utilizada dentro de la red social, para conectar noticias, temas, personas, emociones, eventos. Si en el primer período fue posible considerarlos exclusivamente como agregadores temáticos, ahora es necesario preguntarnos en qué se han convertido. Al analizar diferentes perspectivas teóricas, este artículo tiene como objetivo llegar a una definición del término y el concepto hashtag
LGBTQI+ icons between resistance and normalization
The mediatization of emotions emerges as an affordance of social media, the study of which involves paying attention to digital practices and to the construction and expression of public affection. This happens both for the great events and for the daily demonstrations of support or its denial. In this article we work on the phenomenon of the mediatization of emotions linked to two LGBTQI+ icons and expressed in hashtags on Twitter. Placing it in…

Απόλιδας

It seems impossibl…
Media, migrants and human rights
The alarmism caused by the use of catastrophic headlines and words on major means of communication as soon as the arrival of migrants along the coasts of southern European countries intensifies is
From the Alphabet to the Web
The article discusses the issues of social and cultural construction of the concepts of time, space, and thought. This analysis is matched by a parallel between the physics and those of communication. To be used as a reference is the shift from the Newtonian conception of time and space to the one proposed by Einstein. In fact, the concepts of space and time outlined in Newtonian physics well befits to what is the cultural and experiential that o…
