“…Employing theoretical foundations of self-identity and embodiment and drawing largely on Mary Douglas’s (1996) notions of ritual and hygiene, purity and danger, Avery argues that students in this environment are treated as though they exist in a vacuum, rather than a highly complex social environment: strategies to ‘contain’ their difficult selves ultimately lead to continued confinement, as if the students themselves were ‘contaminated’. …”

“…La filosofia dell’arte di Wittgenstein e Heidegger, qui ricostruita dall’autore, non si presenta come una teoria esclusivamente estetica, perché non ha a che fare semplicemente col mero “gusto” estetico, ma con qualcosa di molto più profondo che riguarda la nostra esistenza e il senso del nostro “stare” nel mondo -- Contracubierta…”

“…The Passionate Statesman explores the intersection of passion and politics in Plutarch's Parallel Lives, with special emphasis on how he represents the influence of eros, or erotic desire, on the careers of some of the most prominent statesmen from Greco-Roman antiquity. Using Aristotle's notion of friendship and Plato's conception of the soul to describe the ideal marriage as based on a mutual love of character (philia), supported by an enduring erotic attraction, Beneker examines how Plutarch applied his system of ethics both to his reading of history and to his writing of biography. …”

“…Non si deve aver timore di mettere ben in risalto la dimensione penitenziale, riconciliatrice e purificatrice dell'Eucaristia, ritenendola rimedio contro il peccato. La piccola nota 351 di Amoris laetitia porta in sé un grande disegno che accende il dibattito ecclesiale e provoca la Chiesa, ricordandole che è giunto il tempo di aprire porte finora chiuse, affinché regni la misericordia di Dio…”
