Raccolta dei primi numeri digitalizzati della rivista Annals of Microbiology, dal 1940

«AOQU. Achilles Orlando Quixote Ulysses» is the offspring of four scholars of University of Milan interested in Italian epic poem in ottavas.

The Journal aims to be a place for scholars from multiple disciplines to discuss on Epics beyond languages, cultures, ages. Epic poetry will be seen as a cultural, moral and ideological model, defining self-perception in history and society, in relationship with other cultures, ideologies as well as collective imagination.

The Journal welcomes essays in Italian, English, French or Spanish, exploring the role of Epic model (as a genre proper, or as a register) in different cultures up to date, even besides literature. The Journal, furthermore, will host monographic issues on specific topics.

The present Journal aims to celebrate the Mediterranean sea and contribute to developing themes, studies and imagery that the krater signed by the Greek Aristonothos still evokes today. Deposed in the tomb of an Etruscan, it tells of stories and relationships between different cultures that take place in this sea and on the lands which connects.

Created in 2007 in paper version as a series publishing conference proceedings and miscellaneous volumes, since 2010 it has also been online on the OJS platform of the University of Milan. Since 2020 Aristonothos has finally turned into a journal, accepting articles from scholars of antiquities studies with particular reference to the cultures of the Mediterranean basin and becoming a forum where innovative and original research and contributions can converge. In 2025, Aristonothos obtained Class A recognition for the sectors 10/A1 (Archaeology) and 10/D1 (Ancient History), valid for all issues of the journal published from 2020 onwards.

Carte Romanze è una pubblicazione scientifica dedicata allo studio delle lingue e delle letterature romanze del Medioevo e del Rinascimento, che ambisce ad andare oltre l’ambito accademico, proponendosi come un agile strumento di approfondimento e di confronto tra generazioni di studiosi di differente formazione e provenienza, e offre una visione moderna e attuale, seppur saldamente ancorata alla tradizione, della Romanistica, dando spazio a interventi ispirati anche ad approcci ermeneutici originali, rigorosi e non conformistici, utili per costruire un serio progetto culturale. Nelle varie sezioni della rivista (Testi, Saggi, Varietà, Note e Discussioni, Recensioni e schede) resteranno comunque centrali l’attenzione al testo e il punto di vista comparato, aperto anche allo studio dei rapporti con le letterature classiche, mediolatine, germaniche e semitiche.

I nuovi numeri di Consonanze sono disponibili nella sezione libri della Milano University Press

****

L’armonica fusione, nel “Dipartimento di Studi Letterari Filologici e Linguistici” dell’Università degli Studi di Milano (struttura di fatto corrispondente al corso di laurea in Lettere) degli studiosi che operavano nei due diversi dipartimenti di “Scienze dell’antichità” e di “Filologia moderna”, ha portato con sé, come semplice e logica conseguenza, la nascita di una nuova collana di studi e testi, destinata a ospitare le pubblicazioni delle nostre varietà disciplinari.

Il suo titolo, «Consonanze», intende suggerire la pluralità di interessi scientifici e di approcci metodologici, ma al tempo stesso l’intima coerenza, sul piano del rigore, dei contributi destinati ad arricchirla, siano essi di taglio filologico, letterario, linguistico o storico.

«Consonanze» ospiterà tanto lavori di docenti esperti come di giovani studiosi, tanto monografie come miscellanee o atti di convegno, libri che passeranno il vaglio rigoroso della revisione fra pari e che saranno leggibili sia su supporto cartaceo sia sulle pagine elettroniche della rete.

La collana, che si avvale di un prestigioso comitato scientifico, non è destinata solamente a dar esito alle migliori ricerche dei membri del Dipartimento, ma si onorerà di accogliere anche contributi di studiosi esterni, italiani e stranieri.

InKoj. Philosophy & Artificial Languages – New series is an academic journal sponsored by the University of Milan. The previous series was devoted to interlinguistics and philosophy of planned and artificial languages. The new series introduces a more philosophical and technical character and a brand new editorial team. Areas of central concern of the new series are: analytical metaphysics, ontology and epistemology, whose problems are approached by a restatement of the ordinary language,  through a manipulation of its logical form and/or its semantics. Papers discussing  the advantages and drawbacks, or risks, of such manipulation of a more intuitive formulation of philosophical problems are also welcome.

Un campo in evoluzione continua e velocissima, quello dei media, al quale i linguisti hanno dedicato studi importanti, avvalendosi spesso anche del fondamentale contributo dei sociologi e dei massmediologi: lo studio della lingua dei media ha investito prima i giornali e la radio, poi il cinema, la televisione, il web da ultimo. L’espansione straordinaria che questo medium sta attraversando e il suo collegamento sempre più stretto con gli altri determinano una situazione di crossmedialità e di intreccio tra i media che sta sconvolgendo i metodi di ricerca e di analisi seguiti in passato dai linguisti.

All’obiettivo della rivista di contribuire allo studio dei media sotto il profilo linguistico, nella complessità del presente e nel passato, si affianca una finalità di carattere trasversale e interdisciplinare, che si riflette nella necessaria attenzione per una prospettiva più strettamente massmediologica e nell’apertura all’apporto di discipline storiche, letterarie, filosofiche attente agli ambiti della comunicazione, e inoltre ben rappresentate dai membri del Comitato scientifico.

A partire dal n.2 del 2024 (v.8 n.2) è stata istituita la nuova sezione Osservatorio sulla serialità televisiva, con un proprio comitato scientifico (vd. Info), che offrirà una rassegna della precedente annata italiana e straniera e alcuni saggi linguistici sulla serialità televisiva. Il Comitato scientifico dell’Osservatorio si raccorda con i Direttori.

Materiali di estetica. Terza serie represents a qualified venue to welcome essays from both eminent scholars who have already achieved a high and recognizable scholarly profile, and young researchers who aspire to give greater dissemination to the results of their work.
