They were first introduced in the 800s by Arab invaders, who imported rice and saffron to the island. However, subsequent refinements, such as coating the balls in breadcrumbs to make them easily portable, have given the savoury snacks a distinctly Sicilian twist—so much so that no visit to the island is complete without a taste of a crunchy, golden arancino.

  • Trento Training School: the Rhetorical Roots of Argumentation
    TRENTO TRAINING SCHOOL: THE RHETORICAL ROOTS OF ARGUMENTATION. A LEGAL EXPERIENCE FACULTY OF LAW, UNIVERSITY OF TRENTO, ITALY 30 August – 4 September 2021 TRAINERS: Francesca Piazza: Full Professor of Philosophy and Theory of Language in the Department of Humanistic Sciences at the University of Palermo (Italy). She is also the President of the Society of Philosophy of Language and the Director of the Department of Humanistic Sciences at the University of Palermo. She has written several publications and books dealing with the importance of rhetoric in public policy argumentation. Abstract: Aristotle’s Rhetoric: a Theory of Persuasion Francesca Piazza (University of Palermo) The topic of my lectures will be Aristotle’s Rhetoric. Against a still persistent tendency to underestimate the philosophical value of this work (see Barnes, 1995, p. 263), I will argue that it is a stimulating place of theoretical reflection on the role of persuasion in human life. However, in order to fully exploit this theoretical value it is necessary to consider Aristotle’s Rhetoric as a unitary work inserted in the general framework of Aristotelian thought (see Grimaldi, 1972; Garver, 1986, Piazza 2008). Starting from the definition of rhetoric as the “ability to see, in any given case, the possible means of persuasion” (Arist. Rhet. 1355b26–7), I will focus on the idea of rhetoric as a techne and on the role it plays in the public sphere. In this way, I will highlight the originality of the Aristotelian perspective with respect to both the Sophists and Plato. Particular attention will be devoted to the concept of eikos (likelihood or probable) that can be considered one of the key notions of Aristotle’s Rhetoric.

In spite of determined efforts, the Allies did not succeed during the war in effectively barring the Straits of Gibraltar ' z 9I ¢-I 8 since the considerable depth of the Straits rendered effective measures to close them against submarines impossible( I ) . The first German submarine Commander (U 21, Hersing) passed through ' the Straits on May 6th, 1915 to the great amazement of the Allies, who however considered it to be such an isolated case that they hardly strengthened the watch. After that German submarines frequently passed through the Straits which was passed by sub- marines in all up to Nov. I9I8, and these were stationed in the Adriatic. When at the close of October I 9 I 8 the Austrian fleet had to be handed over to the Jugoslav National Council these sub- marines had to make their way home.
