Opis:
This paper addresses the problem of organized crime using the example of the Sicilian Mafia. The main purpose of the argument is to present the Mafia’s activity as a pathology of the system, which has a negative effect on both the economy and the legal situation of southern Italy. The study is largely concerned with national and EU regulations related to organized crime. Attention is also devoted to the United Nations Convention on the subject in question. In addition, the paper discusses the impact of the Mafia on economic processes and society. In particular, the Mafia’s activities in the security industry are examined. The overall aim is to present the Mafia as a system error and to explore extensively the topic of the Mafia in Italian Sicily from a legal and economic viewpoint, with an emphasis placed on organized crime as a global problem.

Opis:
The author’s intention is to present the “Sicily case” in Luigi Pirandello’s socio-historical novel The Old and the Young (1913). The article explores the concept of the so-called “Sicily case” in Pirandello, which has not only its own environmental and literary specificity, but also social-political context. It is closely linked to the terrifying image of Sicilian nature that corresponds to the topical motif of the locus amoenus and its complete reversal, seen in the mirror distorted by the political and social climate of the country at the time. The “Sicily case” in Pirandello’s novel becomes a propeller of human consciousness, indeed the writer with several environmental references, the writer indeed highlights the affinities.

Opis:
The rivalry between the Carolingians and the Byzantines in Italy during the second half of the 9th century faced a new threat – the rise of Islam. Despite the need to unite against the common enemy, mutual suspicion between these two centres of imperial power persisted. This is evident in their joint efforts to confront the Muslim outpost in Apulia, the Emirate of Bari. This article aims to examine the role of the Byzantine fleet in the actions of Emperor Louis II (825–875) during the campaign to eliminate the Emirate of Bari – a task in which the Carolingian ruler was successful. The primary source for this investigation is Louis II’s letter of 871 to Emperor Basil I (867–886). In the letter, the author identifies the links between the activities of Muslims in the Adriatic and Tyrrhenian Seas and their strongholds in Sicily and Africa. Consequently, the author outlines a logical plan to expel the Saracens from Italy, particularly from Campania (Naples) and Calabria, with a crucial role assigned to the Byzantine fleet. The Franks intended to coordinate land operations with the Byzantines in Sicily, aiming to reclaim Palermo – a city, according to the letter, closely linked to the Muslim piracy. However, this plan was based on wishful thinking, as it failed to consider the dispersion of the Byzantine navy, which was simultaneously engaged in conflicts against the forces of the Abbasids, the emirate of Crete, and the Slavic pirates in the Adriatic Sea. These factors, coupled with a growing aversion between the Franks and the Byzantines, ultimately led to the collapse of the alliance and their plans. Despite later successes, the Byzantine fleet was unable to provide timely aid to Sicily and actively counter the advance of Islam on the island.

Opis:
Apologia filosofico-storica in cui si mostra il sesso delle donne superiore a quello degli uomini, published in 1737 by the Palermitan nobleman Vincenzo Di Blasi, is a collection of examples – taken from myth, history and literature – of feminine values and virtues, composed in support of the superiority of the “womanish sex” over the virile one. The work is closely linked to the Sicilian cultural context of that time, suspended between a fossilized scholastic philosophy and a slow reception of the secular and modern Cartesian thought. But it confirms – also in Sicily – the growing cultural and disseminating function acquired by the so called “art of conversation”, alongside the already institutionalized model proposed by the academies.
Apologia filosofico-storica in cui si mostra il sesso delle donne superiore a quello degli uomini, wydana w 1737 roku przez palermitańskiego szlachcica Vincenzo Di Blasi, jest zbiorem przykładów kobiecych wartości i cnót zaczerpniętych z mitów, historii i literatury. Zostały one skomponowane, by uwydatnić przewagę „płci niewieściej” nad męską. Tekst wpisuje się w ówczesny sycylijski klimat kulturowy, który był wciąż zawieszony między skostniałą filozofią scholastyczną a powolną recepcją świeckiej i nowoczesnej myśli kartezjańskiej. Praca ta potwierdza jednak – także na Sycylii – rosnącą funkcję kulturową i upowszechniającą tzw. „sztuki konwersacji”, obok zinstytucjonalizowanego już wtedy modelu akademii.

Opis:
The outbreak of the Spanish Civil War represented a pivotal moment in Leonardo Sciascia’s ideological development, as it pushed him towards an anti-fascist passion that would make him an engagé writer over the years. In fact, the news of Lorca’s assassination and Ortega y Gasset’s volumes had a lasting influence on the writer: he began to read Spanish and about the Spanish world, thus discovering Spain and its language, literature, and culture. In fact, it was a rediscovery, since, in the eyes of the Sicilian author, the common Arab domination and the long Spanish hegemony in Sicily had already connected the island and the peninsula in an intricate web of “similarities.” The present article aims to examine the distinctness of Sciascia’s Sicilian-Spanish imaginary that is present in the reports that he published after his numerous trips to the Iberian land starting in the 1950s. After having often been dismissed as paraliterary, those works will be analysed as travel writing so as to better appreciate them. Ore di Spagna, the volume that collects most of those journalistic articles, will be considered as one of the best examples of reporting in the 20th century, far beyond the boundaries of essay production.
Lo scoppio della Guerra civile spagnola rappresentò un momento decisivo per la maturazione ideologica di Leonardo Sciascia, in quanto le sue vicende lo spinsero verso quella passione antifascista che nel tempo lo avrebbe reso uno scrittore engagé. Tuttavia, dal triennio rivoluzionario arrivarono anche le notizie dell’assassinio di Lorca, i volumi di Ortega y Gasset - su cui Sciascia iniziò a leggere il castellano, e poi il mondo -, dunque la scoperta della Spagna, della sua lingua, della sua letteratura e della sua cultura. In realtà, si sarebbe trattato di una riscoperta, poiché, agli occhi dell’autore, la comune dominazione araba e la lunga egemonia spagnola in Sicilia avevano già saldato l’isola alla penisola in un intricato intreccio di “somiglianze”. Il presente studio intende esaminare le peculiarità di questo immaginario siculo-spagnolo attraverso una presentazione dei reportage pubblicati da Sciascia a seguito dei numerosi viaggi intrapresi in terra iberica a partire dagli anni Cinquanta. Trattandosi di pagine spesso allontanate dal genere che meglio può valorizzarle, si procederà, infine, a una loro valutazione in chiave odeporica e si stabilirà che Ore di Spagna, il volume che raccoglie la maggior parte di quei pezzi giornalistici, può superare i confini del compendio saggistico nella direzione dei migliori esiti reportistici novecenteschi.

In this article, I will briefly expose, firstly, the “Italian” tracks that can be found in the Polish composer’s music, and, secondly, the declarations on Italy in Szymanowski’s writings, in particular on his art and music, trying to relate these elements between them to see what image of Italian culture emerges. I will show how Szymanowski’s cultural environment remains German-based nevertheless looking for the lost unity between man, art and nature in the heritage of the Italian Renaissance.

At Akrai in southeastern Sicily, the University of Warsaw excavations have unearthed a huge quantity of small, wheel-made, beige-slipped lamps belonging to the Roman Republican type Ricci C. The most important conclusions from the research concern the functionality of these lamps, both as devices used for lighting in everyday life and as unused elements of votive deposits, as well as their enduring presence in southeastern Sicily when they had all but disappeared elsewhere in the Roman world. The type is a derivative of an old form and peaked in popularity in the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. The last examples of this type seem to have been produced in the reign of Augustus.

Chemical elements in the samples of wild edible mushrooms of the Morchella group collected from different unpolluted Sicilian sites was analyzed by the ICP-MS (method) to detect the content of their minerals and determine whether soil geology and geochemistry can influence the chemical composition in fungi. Results showed that the mushroom samples mainly contained a high concentration of K and P and a wide variety of minor and trace elements (V, Mo, Pb, Ce, Cs, Zr), including heavy metals. Statistical analysis showed that the mushrooms differed in their content of minor and trace elements based on the geological/geographic site of origin. Comparison with other studies showed differences in the content detected in the Sicilian morels with those collected from other geographical sites. Conversely, different fungal species collected from similar geological sites in Sicily showed different patterns of accumulation of the elements confirming that bioconcentration in fungi is species- and site-dependent.

Opis:
The essay reflects on Emma Dante, the unusual and versatile artist (theatre manager, actress-author, film and opera director). Emma Dante’s story condenses different and apparently conflicting experiences and knowledge (the Academy of Dramatic Arts in Rome, the teachings of Vacis in Turin, the laboratories with Cesare Ronconi) before the foundation of the Sud Costa Occidentale group in Palermo, in 1999, with its subsequent transformations continuing until today. The result is an irregular figure of a “matriarch”, in the fruitful vein of new Sicilian dramaturgy, which takes nourishment from the land of origin but with which she feeds a collective and authorial theatre. This theatre is both dramatic (indeed tragi-comic) and post-dramatic, with European depth, and it is not spared of controversy and criticism, as it is awkward and uncomfortable. The analysis of her performance in Cani di bancata (2006) aims to highlight themes and styles connected to a feminism that goes beyond gender in the strict sense but that is able to become a metaphor of a world and a human diversity that involves and disturbs us through an irreverent gaze.
Il saggio riflette su Emma Dante, artista polivalente (capocomica e attrice-autrice di teatro, attrice e regista di cinema, regista di opere liriche), che costituisce un’eccezione nel panorama italiano in quanto donna di scena e donna di libro. La sua storia condensa esperienze e competenze diverse, apparentemente contrastanti (Accademia d’Arte drammatica a Roma, magistero di Vacis a Torino, laboratori con Cesare Ronconi) prima della fondazione del gruppo Sud Costa Occidentale a Palermo, nel 1999, con le sue successive trasformazioni fino ad oggi. Ne nasce un’anomala figura di “matriarca”, nel filone fecondo della nuova drammaturgia siciliana, che dalla terra d’origine trae succhi ma con i quali alimenta un teatro al tempo stesso collettivo e autoriale; drammatico (anzi tragi- comico) e postdrammatico, di rispondenza europea, non senza suscitare polemiche e attacchi, essendo teatro scomodo e foriero di rischiose autoanalisi. L’esame del suo spettacolo Cani di bancata (2006) intende mettere in luce temi e stili connessi a un femminile che esula dal gender (in senso stretto) ma capace di farne la metafora di un mondo e di una diversità umana che, attraverso uno sguardo complice e dissacrante, ci coinvolge e ci turba.

Opis:
Peter of Sicily, a Byzantine high official from the times of Basil I, intended to warn the Archbishop of Bulgaria against certain heretics, known as the Paulicians, as he learned during his mission to Tefrike about their plans of sending their missionaries there. His writings are regarded as the most competent source of information on the history and doctrine of the Paulicians. He also described some of their leaders, including Sergius himself. According to Peter, it was a woman with whom Sergius had had an affair who made him the devil’s tool. He accepted the name of Tychicos and passed himself off as a disciple of Paul the Apostle. For 34 years he was the leader of the Paulicians. Peter admits that Sergius was successful in winning followers and at the same time, besides making false statements, accuses him of selling Christians into slavery to barbarians and of collaboration with the Muslims. In the end, however, he was supposed to have an argument with another heresiarch, Baanes, which would lead to a break among the Paulicians. Sergius is colourfully described as an enemy of the Cross, a voice of impiety, a lover of darkness and a wolf in sheep’s clothing, who skilfully pretends to be a man of virtue but has deceived many. Although he himself was murdered in 834/835, his work was continued by disciples of his.

Opis:
The acrostic of the name Adam (Greek: ΑΔΑΜ, Ἀδάμ) is formed from the first letters of the Greek names of the four sides of the world: Ἀ/νατολή (East), Δ/ύσις (West), Ἄ/ρκτος (North) and Μ/εσημβρία (South). It is commonly believed that the first traces of this acrostic in ancient sources meet in ‘Oracula Sibyllina’ (III 24–26), which most probably originated in the environment of the Egyptian Jewish Diaspora in the middle of the second century BC. The purpose of this article is to attempt to prove the hypothesis that the acrostic of the name Adam was known and used much earlier, because, based on the preserved sources, it can be shown that literary traces of this acrostic can be already found in earlier Greek texts dating back to the turn of the 4th and 3rd centuries BC. Philological analysis indicates that traces of this acrostic can be found already in Megasthenes (c. 350 – c. 290 BC). This source seem to prove a certain knowledge of Jewish culture in the circle of researchers associated with Aristotle (384–322 BC) and in the intellectual surroundings of Alexander of Macedon (356–323 BC). Traces of this acrostic can also be found in later authors, such as Agatharchides of Cnidus (c. 205 – c. 130 BC), Polybius (c. 200 – c. 118 BC), Apollodorus of Athens (c. 180 – c. 110 BC), Posidonius of Apamea (c. 135 – c. 50 BC), Diodorus of Sicily (c. 90 – 20 BC), Strabo (64/63 BC – c. 24 AD), Arrian of Nicomedia (c. 80 – c. 160 AD), Claudius Ptolemy (c. 100 – c. 170 AD), Dionysius Periegetes (fl. c. II century AD) and Marcian of Heraclea (fl. c. II century AD). However, in so far as I know, these sources have not been used in the analysis of the genesis of this acrostic. In the light of the above analyses, it seems reasonable to hypothesize that the origins of the acrostic of the name Adam should be sought not in the Egyptian Jewish Diaspora, but in the circle of Greek philosophical investigations in the field of cosmo- and anthropogenesis and the broadly understood ‘ethnography’ of barbarian peoples. In this context, it should be assumed that the acrostic is rather a ‘product’ of Greeks living in the second half of the 14th and at the beginning of the 3rd century BC, not the hellenized Jews from the middle of the second century BC. This, in turn, seems to suggest that his knowledge goes back to an earlier era, or more precisely to Greek-Jewish contacts in the territory of the Achaemenid Empire, where the official language, equal to the Persian language, was so-called.
Powszechnie uważa się, że pierwsze uchwytne w źródłach antycznych ślady akrostychu imienia Adam przekazują ‘Oracula Sibyllina’ (III 24–26), które powstały najprawdopodobniej w środowisku egipskiej diaspory żydowskiej w poł. II w. p.n.e. Tymczasem na podstawie zachowanych źródeł można wykazać, że literackie ślady rzeczonego akrostychu znajdują się już w znacznie wcześniejszych tekstach greckich sięgających przełomu IV i III w. p.n.e. Celem niniejszego artykułu jest przedstawienie tych właśnie źródeł. Teksty te zdają się dowodzić pewnej znajomości kultury żydowskiej w kręgu badaczy związanych z Arystotelesem oraz w intelektualnym otoczeniu Aleksandra Macedońskiego.
