Queste son le famose e ricche spoglie di chi si scorge in mille inchiostri pinto utile e dolce e de’ suoi raggi cinto sovra ogni stella hormai splende e s’estoglie. Dà carmi al sacro cener’ e rinfiora l’obietto de gli allori, e de l’olive tu, cui fa Palla e Febo a l’arti essempio. 1 Di origine modenese o napoletana, Giulio Cortese, uomo di vasta cultura molto attivo nell’ambito delle accademie napoletane, nacque intorno al 1530 e fu un sacerdote particolarmente attento alle questioni teologiche; autore di testi in versi e in prosa, si occupò di teoria poetica. Credendo nell’uso sociale del codice poetico e rifuggendo dall’“artificio” fine a se stesso, dallo svuotamento semantico della parola e dalla vacuità letteraria, nei suoi trattati considera la poesia prevalentemente strumento scientifico di co- noscenza del reale e veicolo del «concetto» grazie alle capacità figurative dell’«elocuzione». Rime et prose […] (Napoli, Cacchi, 1592) è il titolo di un volume che raccoglie le sue opere più importanti (cfr. L. BOLZONI, Le prose letterarie di Giulio Cortese: una fonte della giovanile “Poetica” campanelliana, in «Giornale storico della letteratura italiana», 1971, CXLVIII, pp. 316-326; G. FERRONI, A.

Nella trascrizione dei testi a stampa antichi ho seguito criteri conservativi limitandomi a distinguere la u dalla v, a regolarizzare i segni diacritici e ad intervenire sulla punteggiatura al fine della chiarezza degli enunciati. 3 Cfr.

SUMMONTE, Historia della città e Regno di Napoli […], Napoli, Raffaello Gessari, 1748, I, pp. 19, 43. 4 Paolo Pacello è autore di testi in versi e in prosa in massima parte inediti. Un’orazione scritta per il vescovo di Aversa Giorgio Manzuolo è l’unica opera da lui direttamente pubblicata: Oratione di Paolo Pacelli [sic!] d’Aversa, nella quale si rallegra a nome pubblico con l’Illustriss. et Reverendiss. Monsignor Conte Giorgio Manzuolo da Bologna creato Vescovo d’Aversa, In Napoli, Appresso Giovan Battista Cappelli, MDLXXXIII (cfr. N. TOPPI, Bibliotheca napoletana et apparato a gli huomini illustri in lettere di Napoli e del Regno […], Napoli, Bulifon, 1678, p. 236; G. B. TAFURI, Istoria degli scrittori nati nel Regno di Napoli, Napoli, Severini, 1753, III, p. 237). Le rime pacelliane sono tràdite dai seguenti mano- scritti vergati da mani diverse: XIII D 37, XIII D 30, XV E 48 della Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli e Pal. 648 della Biblioteca Palatina di Parma. Il corpus del manoscritto XIII D 37, composto da 134 carte, sul dorso del quale si legge «Rime e Prose», è costituito da due membri, come si rileva dalla numerazione che dopo la c. 110v ricomincia da 1 e dalla diversa qualità della carta tra le due sezioni. Assunto come testo di base nel presente lavoro, essendo il più ricco di componimenti (alcuni dei quali non scritti da Pacello ma a lui indirizzati) e, probabilmente, il più antico, tale manoscritto, vergato presumibilmente nel XVI secolo exeunte, contiene testi in versi, una lettera e alcune orazioni non trascritte negli altri testimoni, ma non reca qualche testo riportato in questi ultimi. Inoltre, alcuni componimenti di Pacello sono presenti nei seguenti manoscritti miscellanei: XXVIII 2 19 e XXVIII 1 10 della Biblioteca Oratoriana dei Girolamini e Brancacciano II A 10 della Biblioteca Nazionale di Napoli. Tra le raccolte di rime a stampa che recano testi pacelliani: Rime di Diversi Eccellenti Autori in morte della Illustrissima Signora D. Hippolita Gonzaga (Napoli, Gio. Maria Scotto, 1564), pp. 1, 30, 87, 88; Rime et versi in lode della Illustrissima et Eccellentissima Signora Donna Giovanna Castriota Carafa […] raccolti da D. Scipione de’ Monti (Vico Equense, Cacchi, 1585), pp. 119, 120, 161, 162; Rime et prose di Giulio Cortese, cit., p. 51; Rime di Ascanio Pignatelli (Napoli, Giovan Tomaso Todino, 1593), p. 84; Raccolta di Rime di poeti napoletani non più ancora stampate e dedicate all’Illu- strissimo ed Eccellentissimo Sig. D. Paolo di Sangro […] (Napoli, Stamperia di Domenico Antonio Parrino, 1701), pp. 173-197 (le pagine 196 e 197 contengono testi indirizzati 6 a Pacello); Rime de’ più illustri poeti italiani scelte dall’abate Antonini (Parigi, Musier, 1732), Sulle Rime di Paolo Pacello Napoli dove visse da «prete letterato» ed ebbe contatti con importanti intellettuali, una fonte determinante è offerta da Angelo Borzelli il quale dichiara: «La vita di Pacello è tutta da tessere, se più fortunato ricercatore vi si vorrà provare. Io, ad altro mostrando, mi son fermato a tempo per non impiegar oltre fatica in una ricerca negativa»5. Così Angelo Borzelli si esprime sulla produzione in versi dell’autore che definisce «Giano dalla doppia sembianza»6: Le poesie del Pacello, quelle che, raccolte da altri alla men peggio, sono giunte insino a noi, o cantano d’amore, o muovono dall’ira per riprendere e rispondere ai suoi nemici, o fan la satira particolare di uomini e di fatti pubblici, le quali ultime, è ben dirlo presto, avrebbero un grandissimo valore morale se non fossero precedute o seguite da lodi date a piene mani e in palese a chi di nascosto si bollò di vile e di infame e sempre si coprì di ridicolo7. Se da un lato, infatti, sostenendone peraltro la paternità in un periodo in cui molti autori pubblicavano testi satirici in forma anonima, Pacello attacca aspramente l’incapacità, l’avidità e la corruzione di nobili, eccle- siastici e funzionari italiani e spagnoli esprimendo liberamente «il pensier suo in versi»8, talvolta dall’altro, ricevuto l’incarico di una difesa d’ufficio, in qualità di oratore pubblicamente li difende e sostiene di fronte a Filippo II.

Reality Television Goes Interactive Reality Television Goes Interactive: The Big Brother Television Audience Lisa Gandy Lisa McChristian Student Group Leader Student Group Leader Georgia College & State University Elon College Abstract Reality television was taken to a new realm in the summer of 2000. Television audiences and Internet audiences were married through a voyeuristic, interactive experience. This study attempted to better understand the audience attracted to these interactive, realistic tel­ evision shows. Utilizing previous studies on audience interactivity, a random telephone survey of Big Brother viewers was administered. Big Brother viewers that browsed the show's website before and after the show were demographically more likely to be younger, more educated, and own computers. Big Brother website visitors were significantly more likely to plan to watch the television show, eliminate distractions to that viewing and be more involved during the television show than non-Internet website users. Introduction This project attempted to learn more about the viewers and lev­ els of audience interactivity of the new, voyeuristic CBS television show Big Brother.

  • Viewership of Big Brother Africa Reality Tv Show and Its Influence on the Moral Conduct of Undergraduate Students in Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki, Nigeria
    Global Journal of Arts Humanities and Social Sciences Vol.3, No.5, pp.1- 15, May 2015 Published by European Centre for Research Training and Development UK (www.eajournals.org) VIEWERSHIP OF BIG BROTHER AFRICA REALITY TV SHOW AND ITS INFLUENCE ON THE MORAL CONDUCT OF UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS IN EBONYI STATE UNIVERSITY, ABAKALIKI, NIGERIA Kenneth Adibe Nwafor (Ph.D) Lecturer, Department of Mass Communication, Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki, Nigeria. Ezike, Michael Onyekachi Department of Mass Communication, Ebonyi State University, Abakaliki, Nigeria. ABSTRACT: ‘Big Brother Africa’ is a reality television show in which a group of persons are brought together in secluded large house, isolated from the outside world, and made to live together while being continuously watched by television cameras. According to Chikafa (2012), the concept was borrowed from George Orwell’s novel of 1984 titled ‘fictional dystopia of Oceania’ in which he described a world of never-ending surveillance. In the novel, the dictator who watched over the citizens of Oceania was called Big Brother; his terrifying slogan was ‘Big Brother is watching you’. In the Big Brother television show, contestants confined in the house compete to escape eviction in order to win the prize money. The reality TV show debuted on the African continent in 2003 and has remained an annual event till date. This study investigated the viewership of the programme and its influence on the moral conducts of undergraduate students of Ebonyi state university, Abakaliki, Nigeria. The study adopted both qualitative and quantitative research designs, using a triangulation of data collected with survey questionnaire and oral interviews.

  • THE TRUTH ABOUT JADE Jade Goody Died As She Lived — in the Media Spotlight
    Cover Story Jade Goody THE TRUTH ABOUT JADE Jade Goody died as she lived — in the media spotlight. But did its glare obscure the fact that she could have survived? Investigation: David James Smith n her own account, Jade Goody’s “la-la” was examined at the Princess Alexandra hospital in Harlow just before she went to India at the beginning of August last year. The hospital gave Goody the okay to travel to Mumbai, where she had been signed up to appear in the local version of the reality-television show Big Brother — known in India as Bigg Boss. Almost as an afterthought, in Goody’s version of events, the hospital invited her to have a cervical smear before she went on her way. Goody submitted to the test, but was still unhappy at the intense pains down her leg and the excessive vaginal bleeding she was suffering: on their own, either could be a warning of the cancer; taken together they ought to have been a red alert. At the age of 27, Jade’s entire existence was based on the fame her chippy cockney persona had earned her. She would say she had been “nothing” before she became famous as a Big Brother contestant in 2002. Big Brother had created Jade, and Big Brother had destroyed Jade — Jade Goody on her exposing her to public hatred and ridicule after she was wedding day, February 22, accused of racism during Celebrity Big Brother in 2007.
