Processing Adverb-Verb Temporal Agreement Department of Psychology and Cognitive Science University of Trento, Italy The Syntactic Side of Time: Processing Adverb-Verb Temporal Agreement by Nicoletta Biondo Dissertation submitted to the Department of Psychology and Cognitive Science in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Advisor Prof. Francesco Vespignani External Referees Prof. Brian W. Dillon – University of Massachusetts Amherst Prof. Francesca Peressotti – University of Padova ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have met many people that have supported and inspired me during these three years, and it is definitely time to thank all of them. First and foremost, I want to thank my advisor, Francesco Vespignani. I started my PhD career as a theoretical linguist with no idea about the cognitive side of language research. Although my inexperience has often led us to inescapable discussions about how and if a psycholinguistic experiment can support specific claims coming from theoretical linguistics (and vice versa), Francesco has patiently guided me and taught me what methodological rigor is. Thanks to him I have learned to think big, to broaden my horizons and to address the right questions, so thanks Francesco. I want also to thank two valuable researchers that guided me through my research activities when I was abroad, Simona Mancini and Brian Dillon. Simona’s work has been extremely inspiring from the very beginning, since the time of my master’s studies in Siena. My research project would have not been the same without her seminal work on agreement processing. Moreover, I have also found in her a good friend that supported me during some frustrating moments of my PhD, so thanks Simona. Similarly, Brian’s work on memory access during sentence comprehension has opened a new interesting window in my research path. Moreover, his encouragement and his countless advice have made my stay at UMass the most creative and productive time of my PhD. Thanks to Brian I have really learned to believe in my ideas. I want also to thank Brian, as well as Francesca Peressotti, for having kindly accepted to review my dissertation. They both gave me interesting comments and useful suggestions. I want also to thank the scholar that initially guided me through the complex and fascinating world of linguistics, Luigi Rizzi. I had the great opportunity to III work with him when I was a master student in Siena and, despite his copious commitments, he has always found the time to give me useful feedback about my experimental findings or to discuss about big (and controversial) theoretical questions, so thanks Luigi. Many thanks also go to my new friends in Rovereto, in particular to Francesco, Marco, Alessandra, Teresa, Alessio, Andrea, Giuseppe, Luca, Stefano, Tania, Isabel and to my dearest friends and roommates Noemi, Rossella and Chiara that were there for me, both in the “darkest” and in the “brightest” times. Last, but not least, I want to thank mamma Piera, Paolo and Lia. In particular, I dedicate my dissertation to my father, who taught me to never give up. He rejoiced in my happiness when I started this PhD program, but he left too early to see my satisfaction in concluding this hard and challenging work.

    MAFIA MOTIFS IN ANDREA CAMILLERI’S DETECTIVE MONTALBANO NOVELS: FROM THE CULTURE AND BREAKDOWN OF OMERTÀ TO MAFIA AS A SCAPEGOAT FOR THE FAILURE OF STATE Adriana Nicole Cerami A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (Italian). Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Dino S. Cervigni Amy Chambless Roberto Dainotto Federico Luisetti Ennio I. Rao © 2015 Adriana Nicole Cerami ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Adriana Nicole Cerami: Mafia Motifs in Andrea Camilleri’s Detective Montalbano Novels: From the Culture and Breakdown of Omertà to Mafia as a Scapegoat for the Failure of State (Under the direction of Ennio I. Rao) Twenty out of twenty-six of Andrea Camilleri’s detective Montalbano novels feature three motifs related to the mafia. First, although the mafia is not necessarily the main subject of the narratives, mafioso behavior and communication are present in all novels through both mafia and non-mafia-affiliated characters and dialogue. Second, within the narratives there is a distinction between the old and the new generations of the mafia, and a preference for the old mafia ways. Last, the mafia is illustrated as the usual suspect in everyday crime, consequentially diverting attention and accountability away from government authorities. Few critics have focused on Camilleri’s representations of the mafia and their literary significance in mafia and detective fiction. The purpose of the present study is to cast light on these three motifs through a close reading and analysis of the detective Montalbano novels, lending a new twist to the genre of detective fiction.

CONSTRUCTING TRANSGRESSION: CRIMINALITY IN EXPERIMENTAL LITERATURE BY CHARLES KELL A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN ENGLISH UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2019 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY DISSERTATION OF CHARLES KELL APPROVED: Dissertation Committee: Major Professor Peter Covino Ryan Trimm Eske Møllgaard Nasser H. Zawia DEAN OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL UNIVERSITY OF RHODE ISLAND 2019 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines integral, challenging contemporary poetry and fiction, and its relationship to notions of the criminal in multiple guises. The present focus on “criminal” excavates not only its literal meaning—the nature of crime, and its specific relation to penal law—but also brings to light how the “criminal” affects the construction of fiction and poetry, and the lives of various individuals (speakers) within the chosen texts. Intricately tied with the criminal are practices that transgress, and this study will also locate specific creations where poets and novelists construct transgressions that challenge contemporary ideas of narrative and poetic modes.

D. Blanton, chair Professor Lyn Hejinian Professor Mark Goble Professor Suzanne Guerlac Fall 2010 A Sense of the Real: Experimental Writing and the Sciences, 1879-1946 © 2010 by Natalia Aki Cecire 1 Abstract A Sense of the Real: Experimental Writing and the Sciences, 1879-1946 by Natalia Aki Cecire Doctor of Philosophy in English University of California, Berkeley Professor C. D. Blanton, Chair This American literature dissertation offers an account of the critical category of “experimental literature,” arguing that, nebulous as the term appears to be, it is rooted in ideas of scientific experiment that were under debate in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. While experimental literature is often described in terms of “formal innovation,” this dissertation reads literary form not as an autonomous category in its own right but as an indicator of epistemological investments. Borrowing Lorraine Daston and Peter Galison’s concept of the “epistemic virtue,” this dissertation argues that experimental literature seeks to produce a “sense of the real,” not by thematically treating scientific ideas or even by emulating scientific methods, but rather by using literary form to negotiate the changing landscape of what constituted scientificity in the first place. Epistemic virtues are the investments, at once methodological and ethical, that define the experimental mode. Experimental authors, this dissertation argues, seek ways for literature to produce knowledge with strong epistemic guarantees.

  • On Minimalism + Meditation
    On Minimalism + Meditation CIRCA GALLERY OCT 24TH, 2018 9:27 AM Lindsy Halleckson Silent Search - No. 26, 2015 CIRCA Gallery Contemporary minimalism as a style and practice is intertwined with meditation from start to finish. The artist often begins the creation of the piece by meditating, or falls into a meditative state while making the piece. On the other end of the process, the viewer can use the minimal nature of the artwork to guide their meditation, or after casually viewing the work may slip into an unintentional state of meditation. MINIMALIST PAINTING IS THE PLACE TO BEGIN MEDITATION THROUGH ART. CIRCA’s current exhibition depth of [color] field focuses on minimal, monochromatic, color field paintings that facilitate this kind of looking or mindful observation­­—looking into a piece, rather than at it. The very nature of minimal artwork allows the viewer to more easily move into a meditative state, where reality fades and all that remains is the observer and the painting. Without a specific visual subject or topic, the mind is much more open, unencumbered, and blank while viewing. The deep, saturated color of pieces like Brad Durham’s Without Shadows pull the viewer in and guide their eye deep into its textured layers. While other surfaces, like the subtle shifts and perspective-bending color transitions in Lindsy Halleckson’s Silent Search series, make a space for the eye to truly rest, almost as if out of focus. Brad Durham Without Shadows, 2017 CIRCA Gallery INTENTIONAL OBSERVATION IS ESSENTIAL. It’s no secret that the majority of the population dislikes minimalist art.

The title is inspired by Bildbeschreibung (Explosion of memory/description of an image) by Heiner Muller. " What could be the travel from the self to the other? Imagine to face portraits of characters that carry multidentity-stories: from the old to the new world, from the factual to the fictional, from the undead past to the speculative future. A delirium embracing the cosmic world. This travel will be colorful, hypnotic, engaging, pushing the spectator into unconscious meandering and disorientation." For their first exhibition in Italy, Florenty and Türkowsky have composed a work made up of video projections, sounds, glows and shadows, marking an important first step in the research currently underway after the great project Through Somnambular Laws (2011) toward a new series of works. Elise Florenty & Marcel Türkowsky. Since the beginning of their collaboration in 2005 Elise Florenty - with a background in visual arts and film - and Marcel Türkowsky - with a background in philosophy, ethnomusicology and, later, visual art – have shared their passion for the power of language through songs, writing and instructions.

  • Minimalism Post-Modernism Is a Term That Refers to Events After the So
    Post-Modernism - Minimalism Post-Modernism is a term that refers to events after the so-called Modern period. The term suggests that we are now using what we learned in the “modern” period, but mixing it with ideas from the more distant past. A major movement within Post-Modernism is Minimalism Minimalism mixes some Eastern philosophical principles involving chant and meditation with simple tonal materials. Basic definition of Minimalism: sustained or repetitive use of simple (often tonal) materials. The movement began with LaMonte Young (b.1935); he used simple textures and consonant materials; often called trance music. Terry Riley (b.1935) is credited with first minimalist work In C (1964). The piece has repeated high C’s on piano maintaining simple pulse. Score has 53 short motives to be played by a group any size; players play all 53 figures, repeating as many times and as frequently as desired. Performance ends when all players are done with all 53 figures. Because figures change in content, there is subtle but constantly shifting texture all the time. Steve Reich (b. 1936) prefers to call his music “Structural” not minimal. His music is influenced by his study of African drumming. Some of his early works use phasing, where a tape loop is set up: the tape records first sounds made by performer; then plays them back while performer continues to play. More layers are added, and gradually live sounds get ahead of play-back. Effect can be hypnotic: trance-like. Violin Phase (1967) is example. In Mid-70’s Reich expanded his viewpoint and his ensemble: Music for 18 Musicians is a little like In C, but there is much more variation in patterns.

  • “Classical” Minimalism
    from Richard Taruskin, “Oxford History of Western Music Volume V: Music in the Late Twentieth Century; Chapter 8: A Harmonious Avant-Garde?”. Retrieved 4/29/2011 from oxfordwesternmusic.com. “CLASSICAL” MINIMALISM For many listeners, the most characteristic and style-defining aspect of In C is the constant audible eighth-note pulse that underlies and coordinates all of the looping, and that seems, because it provides a constant pedal of Cs, to be fundamentally bound up with the work's concept. Like much modernist practice since at least Stravinsky, it puts the rhythmic spotlight on the “subtactile” level, accommodating and facilitating the free metamorphosis of the felt beat —for example, from quarters to dotted quarters at the twenty-second module of In C—and allows their multiple presence to be felt as levels within a complex texture. It may be surprising, therefore, to learn that the constant C-pulse was an afterthought, adopted in rehearsal for what seemed at the time a purely utilitarian purpose (simply to keep the group together in lieu of a conductor), and that it was not even Riley's idea. It was Reich's. Steve Reich came from a background very different from Young's and Riley's. Where they had a rural, working-class upbringing on the West Coast, Reich was born into a wealthy, professional- class family in cosmopolitan New York. Like most children of his economic class, Reich had traditional piano lessons and plenty of exposure to what in later years he mildly derided as the “bourgeois classics.” He had an elite education culminating in a Cornell baccalaureate with a major in philosophy.
