Firstly, taking into account typological data gathered from the WALS database and various grammatical descriptions, the crosslinguistic pervasiveness of the phenomenon is highlighted. Secondly, the correlation between morphological complexity and alignment systems is explained by means of a) a diachronic and b) a cognitive explanation. As for a), the emergence of a semantic alignment system can be promoted by structural features, commonly attested in polysynthetic languages (i.e. noun incorporation and person indexation on the verb). As for b), the preference for a specific functional principle (iconicity versus economy) can determine both the argument coding and the morphological structures.

Reading Anglo-Saxon poems in their most immediate context has marked a new trend in recent scholarship, since Fred C. Robinson’s pivotal research work carried out in the 1980s. Some traditional views, concerning both textual boundaries and juxtaposition of different narrative genre units within the same manuscript copy, have since been reexamined, to the point of proposing, in a few cases, significant changes in the edition and verse numbering of single poems. By carefully rereading some old english (sequences of) texts in their manuscript context, and by combining internal and paleographical evidence, the present investigation shows that good grounds exist for questioning the standard identification of poetic units and the current interpretation of textual sequences in Anglo-Saxon manuscripts on a larger scale. Analysis focuses in particular on the prefatory verse calendar and metrical gnomic collection in London, British Library, MS Cotton Tiberius B. I, as related to the C-Text of the Anglo-Saxon hronicle; the so-called “Storm Riddle(s)” in the Exeter Book, and the case study of "The Rewards of Piety" in Cambridge, Corpus Christi College MS 201.

Eine Distanzierung vom Inhalt wird in der Praxis nur durch den Kontext klar (Wilke 2006).

Gr. 1538 (XV sec.) alla luce di dati filologici, storico-linguistici, dialettali e demologici. Una filastrocca numerica in volgare romanzo, scritta in caratteri greci, è stata considerata uno scongiuro contro gli spiriti impuri, essendo inserita in una raccolta di esorcismi popolari greci. La filastrocca è documentata, con innumerevoli varianti, nelle tradizioni popolari di tutta l’Europa romanza e germanica; il veicolo della sua irradiazione è individuato nell’Ebraismo della diaspora, essendo questa sequenza uno dei canti rituali del cerimoniale della Pasqua ebraica. Il testo del manoscritto presenta interesse per lo studio dei volgari italo-romanzi meridionali, dei fenomeni di “mixing” grafico e linguistico che caratterizzano vari documenti italo-greci, e per l’inquadramento dei fenomeni del contatto culturale nel Mediterraneo antico e medievale (diffusione della triskaidekaphobia, interdizione del numero tredici).

E soprattutto: esistono davvero universali cognitivi? La misericordia va rubricata tra i sentimenti o tra le emozioni? Si ripercorre la vicenda semantica e culturale del termine cristiano misericordia, considerando che la linguistica storica ha trascurato l’enorme influsso della cristianizzazione nei processi di risemantizzazione della parole. Misericordia, dopo aver acquisito in ambiente giudaico-cristiano valori speciali difficilmente spiegabili in termini di psicologia cognitiva e di antropologia culturale, ha finito col designare un simbolo riduttivo, ancorché forte: la compassione per il proprio simile.
