Starting with the testimonies of Emile Bernard, Joachim Gasquet and Maurice Denis, the aim is to identify those concepts and components that aesthetically constitute and characterise the landscape of Mont Sainte-Victoire. In this sense we wish to proceed with an investigation aimed at the aesthetic-perceptual reading provided by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, focusing on the parameters of vision, colour and depth, and then turn our attention to the motif analysed by Henri Maldiney, through the concepts of form and rhythm.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) http://journals.mimesisedizioni.it/index.php/studi-di-estetica/article/view/1062 Caring for the Landscape 2024-10-18T09:01:21+00:00 Elisabetta Di Stefano elisabetta.distefano@unipa.it <p>The essay aims to demonstrate that participatory ecological art focused on plant-ing, sowing, and cultivation serves as a means to promote a culture of environ-mental care. After exploring several artistic projects involving community engage-ment in landscape stewardship, the essay focuses on the debate concerning ges-ture and behavioral patterns. Finally, by examining artist Egle Oddo’s Performative Habitats project, it seeks to understand how art can influence the formation of new habits through both increased environmental awareness and repeated action, employing key theoretical frameworks of Everyday Aesthetics.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) http://journals.mimesisedizioni.it/index.php/studi-di-estetica/article/view/1063 Suono e mondo 2024-10-18T08:48:52+00:00 Francesca Ferrara fra.ferrara85@gmail.com <p>Published in 1977, The tuning of the world by Raymond Murray Schafer, inaugu-rated the soundscape studies, that have shaped much further research, interweav-ing different disciplinary fields, and are based around the concept of sound as a meta-category that both encompasses and transcends music. These studies invite us to reflect on the relationship between human beings and sound environment, on the responsibility of each individual in sharing the soundscape as a common and collective heritage and, more generally, on the ability to exercise hearing as a medium of understanding of the world.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) http://journals.mimesisedizioni.it/index.php/studi-di-estetica/article/view/1064 I coniugi Shelley in Italia 2024-10-18T09:01:46+00:00 Elisabetta Marino marino@lettere.uniroma2.it <p>This essay sets out to investigate the Shelleys’ perception of Italy and the Italians, oscillating between heartfelt enthusiasm and disillusionment. As will be shown, P.B. Shelley adopted a more critical stance towards the population, while he unre-servedly appreciated both the natural landscape and the relics of a glorious past. Conversely, Mary Shelley was more sympathetic and convincingly embraced the Italian cause. The intertwined concepts of Italophilia and Italophobia will also be explored.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) http://journals.mimesisedizioni.it/index.php/studi-di-estetica/article/view/1065 Immaginazione “solariana” e materia “solarica” 2024-10-18T08:56:46+00:00 Giampiero Moretti gmoretti@unior.it <p>The article aims to explore some of the more strictly aesthetic-philosophical as-pects of Stanislaw Lem's famous novel Solaris. Beginning with a historical recon-struction of the use of the concepts of fantasy and imagination in Western culture, and exploring the relationship between these two terms and the idea of matter with which they are intertwined, the article offers an interpretation of the novel in which the relationship between matter and imagination plays a crucial role for the characters themselves.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c) http://journals.mimesisedizioni.it/index.php/studi-di-estetica/article/view/1066 Frammentazione del territorio e incidenza della volontà umana 2024-10-18T08:58:53+00:00 Massimiliano Vinci vinci@juris.uniroma2.it <p>In contrast to a positivist conception that considers the objective elements of its topographical location to be absolutely prevalent for the identification of a real estate, the Roman legal sources present a more articulated picture, in which the voluntas, affectio and constitutio of the dominus play a fundamental role in the subjective distinction between locus and fundus. In any case, a merely patrimo-nial perspective appears extraneous to Roman jurist’s thinking. On the contrary, emerges the full awareness of a special juridical relationship of man with the ter-ritory.</p> 2024-10-01T00:00:00+00:00 Copyright (c)
