MALTI: L-istorja ta' Sqallija mis-seklu disgħa sas-seklu tnax intisġet madwar sensiela ta' ġrajjiet li bidlulha darba għal dejjem il-karattru tagħha. Sakemm ħakmu l-gżira minn idejn il-Biżantini, l-Għarab damu mis-sena 827 sas-sena 902. Il-kontroll ta' l-ikbar gżira Mediterranja tahom is-setgħa li jikkolonizzawha, u dan wassal sabiex l-ilsien, it-twemmin u l-kultura tad-dinja Għarbija rabbew l-għeruq bis-saħħa tal-klassi ġdida mexxejja u ta' parti mdaqqsa mill-popolazzjoni li waslet hekk kif il-gżira saret parti minn Dar l-Islam. Madankollu, fi Sqallija tas-seklu ħdax kien għadhom jgħixu eluf ta' nsara Griegi, kif ukoll għadd imdaqqas ta' Lhud. Il-ħakma Normanna ta' Sqallija ġabet magħha bidla kbira fil-ġerarkija politika u soċjali tal-pajjiż. Minn tmiem is-seklu ħdax il-gżira ssieħbet ma' l-Ewropa Latina, u dan nissel tibdil mill-qiegħ fl-istrutturi tal-ħajja u fl-identitajiet individwali u kollettivi ta' sa differenti. Fis-seklu tnax Sqallija kellha sehem ewlieni fit-tfassil tas-Saltna Normanna, u l-belt ewlenija tagħha, Palermo, nbidlet minn metropoli Gharbija f'belt kapitali rjali. Dan l-istudju qasir jifli l-iżviluppi li seħħew taħt in-Normanni, u jingħaqad ma' storiċi ta' żmienna li leħħnu dubji dwar il-kwadru pożittiv ta' tolleranza reliġjuża u etnika fl-istorjograja tradizzjonali ta' Sqallija minn Ruġġieru II sa Federiku II. Minflok, qegħdin joħorġu iżjed ċari t-tensjonijiet u l-firdiet bejn komunitajiet differenti Sqallin skond twemmin reliġjuż u nisel etniku. Sa nofs is-seklu tlettax, il-popolazzjoni Musulmana ta' Sqallija kienet għebet għal kollox, bl-aħħar ftit eluf itturufnati fil-belt ta' Lucera; fil-waqt li l-kultura nisranija Griega ġiet imwarrba, u l-Għarbi baqa' mitkellem biss mill-minoranza Lhudija, flimkien man-nies ta' Malta, Għawdex u Pantellerija. L-iSqalli ta' tmiem is-seklu tlettax ftit li xejn kellu x'jaqsam ma' l-imgħoddi Għarbi tal-gżira, bħallikieku l-istorja ta' Sqallija bdiet fl-1091.

International audience Beginning with the 1979-1980 lectures at the Collège de France, Du gouvernement des vivants, this article aims at a reconstruction of Foucault's shift: from a study of knowledge-power systems to an archaeological-genealogical analysis of the government of human beings by means of truth; or, better yet, a study of the relations between the manifestation of truth, the constitution of subjectivity, and the government of self and others. Therefore, it seeks to explore the meaning of the fundamental notion of "regime of truth" (in its connection with the notion of "truth games"), as well as the Foucauldian project of a genealogy of the modern subject in Western civilization. The conclusion suggests that Foucault's last series of lectures at the Collège de France are a way to urge us to undertake a "politics of ourselves", and consequently to get rid of the hermeneutics of the self, no matter whether Christian or scientific.

Esplorando dal punto di vista storico, antropologico e artistico l'incredibile successo e diffusione del motivo della Madonna Lactans, il presente scritto si propone di indagare le dinamiche politiche associate al motivo stesso e alla devozione ad esso correlata. Il motivo è un utile punto di accesso per indagare quali orizzonti simbolici, soprattutto legati alla corporeità, vengano attivati nel difficile rapporto tra élite di potere e cultura popolare nello stabilire la legittimità politica. Questa indagine si prefigge di esplorare questo rapporto in diversi contesti socio-culturali del Mediterraneo arricchendo l'analisi tramite una comparazione tra la censura post-tridentina sul motivo e la ripresa del tema nell'impero mughal tra il secolo XVI ed il XVII. ; Exploring the incredible success and diffusion of the Nursing Madonna motif from an historical, anthropological and artistic point of view, this paper aims to investigate the political dynamics associated with the motif itself and the devotion related to it. The Nursing Madonna motif is a useful point of access to see which symbolic horizons, especially those linked to corporeity, are activated in the difficult relationship between the power élites and popular culture in establishing political legitimacy. This investigation aims at exploring this relationship in different socio-cultural contexts of the Mediterranean by enriching the analysis through a comparison between the post-Tridentine censorship on the motif and the revival of the theme in the Mughal empire between the 16th and 17th centuries.

"The documents of Pius XI's pontificate from the Vatican Secret Archives, recently accessible for the first time, establish new perspectives of research and analysis. International experts and junior specialists discuss here the Roman point of view concerning the most important issues in the international scene between the two world wars and offer new outlooks and interpretations marking a substantial step forward in research."
