La letteratura cavalleresca è connotata da un immaginario di lunga durata, che acco-muna i testi letterari medievali e rinascimentali e le forme di teatro popolare otto-novecentesche (Opera dei Pupi e cunto). Un tratto ricorrente di questo immaginario è il tema dell’esilio, che porta il cavaliere a scontrarsi con il potere e ad andare in terre lontane. Nella prima parte del lavoro si esamineranno le caratteristiche macroscopiche dell’esilio nell’immaginario cavalleresco, cercando di metterne in evidenza gli elementi di continuità e di innovazione. Nella seconda parte ci si con-centrerà su un caso specifico, la storia di Malaguerra, figlio adottivo di Rinaldo, che Giusto Lodico, nella Storia dei paladini di Francia, ha creato mescolando testi e ingredienti tradizionali e che ha conosciuto nuova vita nei copioni e negli spettacoli dell’Opera dei Pupi: un caso particolarmente rappresentativo per osservare la mescolanza di tradizione e innovazione nell’esilio cavalleresco.

Italian Abstract: Il paper tratta un tema molto importante, quello del femminismo e dell’emancipazione della donna. La scelta del tema è dovuta all’importanza che rivestono la protagonista e il ruolo della donna in generale nella narrativa della scrittrice e fino a quale punto rappresenta Marianna Ucria, protagonista del romanzo la lunga vita di Marianna Ucria, un prototipo della donna siciliana settecentesca di quel tempo. La prima parte esamina la parità tra la donna e l’uomo in diverse situazioni della vita: nell’amore, nella vita coniugale, nel dirittto di cultura e nel matrimonio. La seconda parte sottolinea il rapporto speciale che lega la protagonista al marito, alla madre e al padre. Concludendo si può notare che Marianna a prima lettura appare vittima delle condizioni della sua società, dopo una lettura attenta apparirà una donna forte costretta a combattere con tenacia le sue esperienze dolorose con una forza meravigliosa e di emanciparsi ed imporsi con la sua parola silenziosa. English Abstract: Marianna Ucria, the heroine of the literary work (Mariana Ukria's Long Life), is distinguished among all the women who have occupied the female lead in the works of the writer Dacia Maraini. The choice of the topic of the study is due to the importance the role of women and feminist literature occupies in the work of the writer and the fact that the heroine herself is a symbol of the Sicilian women of this period. The first part of the research deals with equality between men and women in various life situations, including marital life, love relationship, the right to culture and marriage. The second part deals with the special relationship the heroine has with her husband, father and mother. The research ends by confirming how the heroine transformed, passing through different stages in her life, from a victim of societal circumstances to a strong woman who confronts her painful life experiences with remarkable power and how she was able to liberate and impose herself on society and also through her silent words. المستخلص باللغة العربية تتميز ماريانا اوکريا بطلة العمل الأدبي ( حياة ماريانا اوکريا الطويلة) من بين کل النساء اللاتى شغلن دور البطولة النسائية فى أعمال الکاتبة داتشيا ماراينى. ويرجع اختيار موضوع البحث لما يشغله دور المرأة و الأدب النسوي من أهمية في أعمال الکاتبة ولکون البطلة ذاتها رمزاً لنساء صقلية هذه الفترة. الجزء الأول من البحث يتناول المساواة بين الرجل والمرأة في مختلف التعاملات الحياتية ومنها الحياة الزوجية وعلاقة الحب والحق في الثقافة و الزواج. الجزء الثانى يعالج العلاقة الخاصة التي تربط البطلة بزوجها ووالدها ووالدتها. ينتهى البحث بتأکيد کيف تحولت البطلة ، مروراً بمراحل مختلفة فى حياتها ، من ضحية للظروف المجتمعية إلى امرأة قوية تواجه خبرات حياتها المؤلمة بقوة لافتة للانتباه و کيف استطاعت أن تتحرر وتفرض ذاتها على المجتمع وأيضاً عن طريق کلماتها الصامتة.

The article presents the offence of rebellion classified in the Spanish Criminal Code (Article 472 SCC of 1995), which has a long history because it was referred to in all former Spanish Criminal Codes (of 1848, 1870 and 1932). The offence consists in public and violent sedition aimed at achieving any of the seven objectives listed in Article 472 SCC, which include fully or partially repealing, suspending or amending the Constitution, and fully or partially stripping the King, the Regent, or members of the Regency of all or part of their prerogatives and powers, or obliging them to execute an act contrary to their will (Article 472 paras 1 and 2 SCC). It also occurs in an aggravated form due to various circumstances, e.g. using weapons, causing havoc or serious violence against persons (Article 473 para. 2 SCC). It breaches the Constitution and harms the fundamental institutions of a democratic state, and undermines the foundations of a state of law. Article 472 SCC protects the constitutional order, thus the rules and constitutional institutions that must be recognised. It is a collective offence. Its subject cannot be a single person but a group of people. The statute does not determine the number of people involved but there must be a number sufficient to achieve their aim. The offence can be committed with specific direct intent, and perpetrators should aim to achieve one of the objectives listed in the statute. Standard as well as aggravated types of the offence are "cascade-like" in nature because and the penalty severity depends on the level of involvement in the rebellion (Article 473 para. 1 SCC).
