Introduction Merleau-Pontian Materialisms
Vox Populi, Vox Dei
War Was Taking Place
Merleau-Ponty’s article, “La guerre a eu lieu”, contains, as has been said, a kind of new phenomenology of perception. Its research question could be formulated as follows. What prevented German-occupied France from perceiving the enemy as an enemy for so many months or years of alienating cohabitation? The “drôle de guerre” would, among other things, be linked to this singular perceptual impasse. An impasse that is as dramatic as instructive, si…
An Ecology without Nature? Merleau-Ponty, Simondon, Latour
The article examines the main features of Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy of nature and, more specifically, the reasons that led it to some consonance with that of the young Simondon. At the center of this recognition, the question of processuality and the pre-Socratic suggestions about a philosophy of the elements. The aim is to derive a need, which, if it remained unfulfilled in Merleau-Ponty, was instead expressed in Simondon and in many contempora…

Introduction. The Other Mirror of Merleau-Ponty
La telepatia e la macchia. Mirror neurons e monadologie merleau-pontyane
A meditation on specularity as paradigms of a theory of experience which informs every field of philosophy and human sciences, including contemporary neurosciences. And a meditation, starting from neurosciences and mirror neurons, on the different readings of this paradigm of specularity and specularization. In particular, on that “second” reading of specularization, which suggests that the mirror is not an instrument of representation but of exp…

Fonti minori per la conoscenza della storia sociale di Napoli
This paper presents a subset of approximately 300 funeral posters, taken from a collection of some 1300 such items photographed in Naples and its Province, and giving the deceased person's nickname indicating his or her art or craft. After poin-ting out how the use of dialect in naming the art or craft sets the intended public of these posters apart from the general population of Naples, the paper goes on to list the posters by category, commenti…
Digital Phenotyping
This paper explores the potential threats of digital phenotyping and the ways it may redesign our body experience and conceptualization. We argue that technology in digital medicine, and in psychiatry in particular, is not merely an extrinsic device to achieve improvements in knowledge, diagnosis, and treatment of diseases; rather, it intrinsically and unavoidably implies potential effects on what it is to be a human person, namely the embodiment…
Mind and Places
Premises, goals and problems in linguistic historiography
Genetics, Linguistics and the ‘Serial Founder Effect’. A Case Study
After a brief discussion of the relation holding between linguistics and genetics, the paper will focus on three assumptions: a) that statistics can be reliably applied to phonology; b) that there is a relation between the size of a human population and the diversity of its phonetic system; c) that the so-called founder effect reduces phonemic diversity. The author will seek to demonstrate that all three assumptions are incorrect
Les parties et le tout
Partant de la lecture de deux écrits de Jakobson, qui se réfèrent explicitement aux Recherches logiques de Husserl et à la question des rapports entre le tout et ses parties, l’auteur critique l’hypothèse d’une racine phénoménologique de la phonologie structurale
La magia degli altri, e la nostra. Ernesto De Martino e le tecniche della presenza
Il saggio rilegge la teoria della magia delineata da De Martino ne Il mondo magico. Piu precisamente, esamina il concetto di e interpreta il campo della - con la sua polarizzazione fra la soggettivita del soggetto e l’oggettivita dell’oggetto - come un effetto peculiare del ritualismo magico. Il saggio formula quindi un problema o un’ipotesi piu generale concernente la natura rituale di tutte le forme di soggettivita come anche di oggettivita. In…
Attualitŕ di Bühler
L'articolo propone una succinta lettura della e di altri scritti di Bühler da un'angolatura linguistica. Viene cosě richiamata l'attenzione su alcuni punti ancora attuali e non del tutto messi a frutto nel dibattito teorico contemporaneo sulle scienze del linguaggio. In particolare l'Autore si sofferma su: a) il concetto di campo; b) la teoria dei due campi e l'integrazione tra il campo simbolico e il campo deittico, con un accenno alla questione…
Saussure, la syllabe et le phonème
Cet article analyse les réflexions de Saussure sur la phonologie. La lecture des textes (CLG, sources et autres écrits) montrent que Saussure accordait moins d’importance aux segments phoniques en soi qu’à leurs relations dans la chaîne, surtout en termes d’alternance entre processus d’ouverture et de fermeture, fondamentaux pour la définition de la syllabe et correspondant à des mécanismes universels. Il apparaît en outre que l’opinion courante,…

From Maine de Biran to the 'Motor Theory' of speech
The basic idea of the modern Motor Theory of Speech Perception (Liberman et al. 1963) is that "the perception of speech is tightly linked to the feedback from the speaker's own articulatory movements". In this paper we try to show how the same idea was already formulated by the French philosopher Maine de Biran (1805) and taken up in the second half of the 19th century by psychologists (like Steinthal) and linguists (like Kruszewski and Paul). Ho…
The beginnings of phonology in Italy
It is known that structural phonology (and, more generally, structural linguistics) began in Italy later than in other European countries. In the general opinion, this was due to the hegemony of Benedetto Croces's philosophy during the years between World War I and his death in 1952. This paper shows how an early attempt to give a structural description of Italian phonology (Porru 1939) encountered an exceptionally harsh review (Pisani 1939), whi…
