I [[w:Promessi Sposi|Promessi Sposi]]. <br /> Della padronanza della nostra lingua; delle capacità di valutazione delle opere, della sensibilità nell'esame di processi naturali, moti dell'animo, concetti, daranno prova d'ora innanzi gli alunni in gare collettive per l'espressione precisa e bella, e nella redazione scritta individuale. === Liceo === Nel liceo il metodo più propriamente storico, che si seguirà nello studio delle tre letterature, permetterà una più critica penetrazione della civiltà antica e della moderna e dei loro rapporti. Lo studio della letteratura sarà accompagnato da letture di documenti e di passi caratteristici per lo stile sia dei singoli autori, sia di intere epoche (per le letterature antiche la documentazione diretta sarà completata dalla lettura di buone traduzioni italiane) sulla base di tali letture, volta a volta si verrà a sobri rilievi sugli autori, a cogliere i caratteri salienti e distintivi degli autori e delle epoche, ed a provocare da parte degli alunni precise formulazioni orali e scritte dei loro sentimenti e giudizi. Non si trascureranno, d'altra parte, opportuni rilievi grammaticali, sintattici e lessicali. ==== I Classe ==== Qualche prosa e poesia medievale che prepari a intendere l'origine della lingua italiana e il passaggio alla primitiva poesia in volgare, anche in rapporto alle espressioni musicali (lauda, ballata, sonetto ecc.). Dalla poesia provenzale al "[[w:Dolce Stil Novo|Dolce stil novo]]". La prosa italiana del Duecento. [[w:Dante|Dante]] e la [[w:Divina Commedia|Divina Commedia]]. [[w:Francesco Petrarca|Francesco Petrarca]], [[w:Giovanni Boccaccio|Giovanni Boccaccio]]. I principali prosatori del Trecento. l'[[w:umanesimo|Umanesimo]]. I principali autori della seconda metà del Quattrocento: il [[w:Poliziano|Poliziano]], il [[w:Pulci|Pulci]], il [[w:Lorenzo il Magnifico|il Magnifico]], [[w:Leonardo|Leonardo]], il [[w:Pontano|Pontano]], il [[w:Sannazzaro|Sannazzaro]], il [[w:Boiardo|Boiardo]].<br /> Oltre i più significativi passi degli autori citati si curerà più particolarmente la lettura e il commento storico, linguistico ed estetico di almeno 20 canti della prima cantica della Divina Commedia, delle più belle liriche del Petrarca, di una buona scelta di novelle del Decamerone.- ==== II Classe ==== Gli autori maggiori del primo Cinquecento: Ariosto, Machiavelli, Guicciardini; altri lirici e prosatori.<br /> La poesia satirica e burlesca. Il Tasso.<br /> Il Seicento e i suoi caratteri. Il marinismo. Lirici del Seicento. Storici e critici. Galileo Galilei, Vico.<br /> Il Settecento, l'Arcadia e Metastasio. Storici e critici. Il rinnovamento civile ed artistico. Goldoni, Parini, Alfieri.<br /> Saranno letti e commentati almeno 20 canti del Purgatorio, passi delle opere del Machiavelli, specialmente dai Discorsi sulla prima deca di Tito Livio, canto dell'Orlando Furioso e della Gerusalemme Liberata, una tragedia dell'Alfieri e una larga scelta della Vita, libro del Partni e passi del Giorno. ==== III Classe ==== L'Ottocento, Vincenzo Monti, Ugo Foscolo. il Romanticismo, Leopardi, Manzoni. Scrittori e poeti del Risorgimento. I politici, G. Mazzini. La seconda metà dell'Ottocento; correnti ed orientamenti letterari. Positivismo e Verismo, G. Carducci, G. Pascoli, G. D'Annunzio. Poeti e romanzieri, Fogazzaro, Verga. il Novecento, L. Pirandello. La critica letteraria.<br /> Nella terza classe del Liceo lo studio della letteratura dovrà essere compiuto soprattutto attraverso la lettura diretta dei testi. Sarà obbligatoria, oltre la lettura e il commento di almeno 15 canti del Paradiso, la lettura delle Odi, dei Sonetti, dei Sepolcri, di passi delle Grazie, nonché di qualche prosa letteraria del Foscolo; la conoscenza del Leopardi attraverso la lettura di almeno 15 canti e di qualche Operetta morale, e quella del Manzoni attraverso la lettura dell'Adelchi, delle più alte liriche e dei Promessi Sposi. La conoscenza diretta del Carducci dovrà essere la più ampia possibile per il carattere educativo della sua patriottica ed umana poesia È inoltre richiesta la lettura di una larga scelta di prose letterarie del De Sanctis e di un romanzo del Verga. Nelle due ultime classi del Liceo una grave lacuna deve essere colmata: quella dell'ignoranza delle letterature straniere. Almeno un'ora la settimana dovrebbe essere dedicata allo studio delle letterature straniere e particolarmente della francese, tedesca, russa, inglese, americana: dalla Chanson de geste alle commedie di Molière, a Balzac, a Victor Hugo, a Stendhal, a Flaubert, a Maupassant; dai Nibelunghi all'Arminio e Dorotea, al Faust di Goethe, o qualche tragedia dello Schiller; alle liriche di Heine; da Gogol a Tolstoj, a Dostoievskij, a Gorkij, a Shakespeare, a Dickens, ai grandi lirici dell'Ottocento; da Emerson a Poe, Melville.<br /> Gioverà a tale studio l'uso della biblioteca scolastica, attraverso la quale gli alunni acquisteranno la conoscenza delle letterature straniere nei loro capolavori. == Liceo Scientifico == Valgono in tutte le classi i suggerimenti e i programmi esposti per le scuole dell'ordine classico. Lo studio della storia letteraria si svolgerà negli ultimi tre anni, come nel Liceo Classico. Parallelamente si daranno ragguagli sulla storia della musica. Ci si soffermerà su quegli autori la cui attività sia stata particolarmente dedicata alle scienze ed ai loro problemi.

Più precisamente si parla di * Iter legis ordinario, concernente il procedimento di approvazione delle leggi ordinarie; * Iter legis aggravato (da intendere come rafforzato), concernente il procedimento relativo alla approvazione delle leggi costituzionali. ==Iter legis ordinario== Per quanto riguarda le leggi ordinarie, l'iter legis è disciplinato nella parte II della Costituzione al titolo I, sez. II dagli artt. 71-74, e dai regolamenti parlamentari. Questo procedimento è composto dalle seguenti fasi: * Fase dell'iniziativa (da parte del soggetto competente); * Fase della discussione (da parte del Parlamento); * Fase della promulgazione (da parte del Presidente della Repubblica), la quale può essere articolata in momenti successivi: ** Promulgazione propriamente detta; ** Pubblicazione (sulla Gazzetta Ufficiale della Repubblica Italiana); ** Vacatio legis (per un periodo di 15 giorni dalla pubblicazione); ** Entrata in vigore. ===Fase dell'iniziativa=== La fase dell'iniziativa consiste nell'esercizio da parte di determinati soggetti del potere di sottoporre progetti di legge redatti in articoli al Parlamento. La Costituzione riconosce tale potere: * Ai membri del Parlamento. Sia i gruppi parlamentari che il singolo deputato o senatore possono sviluppare proposte di legge (chiamate in questo caso proposta di legge) di modo da essere titolari appieno di questa funzione aderendo alle proprie idee e progetti di partito. * Al Governo. Esso utilizza il suo diritto di iniziativa legislativa per sviluppare il suo programma e può essere titolare di questa sua funzione solo in sede collegiale; inoltre ogni sua proposta di legge prima di passare al Parlamento deve essere autorizzata dal Presidente della Repubblica[1]. Il governo ha dei campi (leggi che riguardano la manovra di bilancio e leggi di conversione di decreti legge) nei quali le sue proposte sono essenziali all'attuazione del programma e, perciò, vengono con alta probabilità accettate in Parlamento, dove il governo stesso può contare sui parlamentari che gli hanno dato la fiducia. In questo caso il progetto di legge prende il nome di disegno di legge e non va confuso con atti aventi forza di legge (i.e., decreti-legge e decreti legislativi) dal momento che questi ultimi sono atti esecutivi (nonostante il loro carattere legislativo). * Al corpo elettorale (che può essere esercitata attraverso la presentazione alle Camere da una proposta sottoscritta da almeno 50.000 elettori) mediante iniziativa legislativa popolare, sulla base dell'art. 71 della Costituzione. * Ai Consigli Regionali. * Al CNEL; generalmente questo consiglio svolge una funzione consultiva, ma la Costituzione gli attribuisce la facoltà di proporre leggi. * Agli organi ed enti cui sia comunque conferito suddetto potere da legge costituzionale. === Fase della discussione === La seconda fase del procedimento legislativo comincia con l'assegnazione da parte del Presidente della camera (Camera dei Deputati o Senato della Repubblica) cui è pervenuto il progetto di legge alla commissione parlamentare competente ratione materiae (ovvero, per materia). La commissione parlamentare opera diversamente a seconda della "sede" in cui viene autorizzata a operare. La commissione parlamentare incaricata di esaminare il progetto di legge può operare in: * Sede referente: Si tratta della sede in cui le commissioni operano seguendo il normale iter legis ordinario; è sempre obbligatorio (art. 72, 4° comma Cost.) per i progetti di legge in materia costituzionale ed elettorale, di delegazione legislativa, di autorizzazione alla ratifica di trattati internazionali, di approvazione di bilanci e consuntivi; è facoltativo per tutti gli altri progetti di legge. In esso si prevede una discussione sul testo nel suo complesso seguita da una discussione del testo articolo per articolo. Alla discussione segue un voto sul progetto di legge. La commissione ha in tale sede il compito di preparare i documenti (testo del progetto di legge e relazioni) su cui lavorerà poi più accuratamente prima una e poi l'altra camera del Parlamento; in tali sedi plenarie la Commissione è rappresentata da un relatore. * Sede legislativa o deliberante: la commissione che opera in sede legislativa (si tratta di un procedimento speciale) si occupa della discussione, della votazione e dell'approvazione del progetto di legge estromettendo completamente il Parlamento dai lavori. È sempre ammessa durante i lavori della commissione la domanda di "rimessione in assemblea" del progetto di legge. * Sede redigente: è la seconda procedura speciale prevista dai regolamenti di Camera e Senato; la commissione ha gli stessi compiti che aveva quando operava in sede referente con l'aggiunta che la sua votazione sui singoli articoli del progetto di legge assume carattere di definitività, e il testo che viene presentato alla Camera sarà votato nella sua interezza (senza quindi procedere alla votazione articolo per articolo; sono esclusi da questo procedimento le materie per le quali vi è una riserva di assemblea, citate nella Sede referente) Il procedimento legislativo ordinario continua con l'assegnazione del progetto della legge al Presidente di una delle camere del parlamento il quale permette la discussione, la votazione articolo per articolo e infine la votazione finale sull'intero progetto di legge da parte dell'assemblea. Per l'approvazione da parte di una camera è sufficiente la maggioranza dei presenti votanti a favore, eccezion fatta per taluni casi, sempre previsti dalla Costituzione, ove sono richiesta maggioranze speciali. Qualora la maggioranza dei presenti in aula abbia votato favorevolmente il disegno di legge si intende approvato e passa all'altra camera, la quale se vota favorevolmente al progetto senza apportarvi modifiche fa sì che sia completata la fase deliberativa. Se invece vi apporta modifiche il disegno ripassa all'altra camera che a sua volta se apporta modifiche deve ripassarlo ulteriormente e così via fino a che uno stesso testo è approvato in entrambe le camere. Questo fenomeno viene definito con il termine traghetto e riflette il fatto che le due camere del Parlamento in Italia hanno le stesse funzioni (c.d. bicameralismo perfetto). ===Fase della promulgazione=== La terza e ultima fase è quella che attiene alla produzione degli effetti normativi della legge e riguarda la promulgazione e la pubblicazione. * La promulgazione propriamente detta deve avvenire entro 30 giorni dall'approvazione parlamentare o in un termine minore se entrambe le Camere, a maggioranza assoluta, ne dichiarano l'urgenza (Art. 77 della Costituzione) e spetta al Presidente della Repubblica. Non sempre il Presidente della Repubblica decide di promulgare la legge, in quanto essa potrebbe avere dei difetti sostanziali (essere in contrasto con i dettati costituzionali) oppure vizi formali (difetti sul procedimento legislativo); quindi spetta a lui porre il primo vero sindacato (preventivo) della legge. Se la decisione di promulgare fosse negativa, la legge viene rinviata alle camere con un messaggio motivato del Presidente della Repubblica (il cosiddetto "veto sospensivo"). Se il progetto di legge viene approvato nuovamente il presidente è obbligato a promulgarlo. * Subito dopo la promulgazione, e comunque entro 30 giorni dalla stessa, la legge deve essere pubblicata. Questo momento vede l'intervento del Ministro della Giustizia, depositario del sigillo dello Stato. Una volta posto il sigillo alla legge, essa viene pubblicata sulla Gazzetta Ufficiale. Ciò permette, dal punto di vista formale, permette che la nuova legge possa essere collegata alle norme pre-esistenti così da avere pieno valore e forza cogente (quod non est in registro non est in mundo). * Una volta che la legge approvata dal Parlamento e promulgata dal Presidente della Repubblica viene pubblicata, questa non ha immediatamente forza di legge, ma un periodo di tempo variabile deve intercorrere precedentemente (15 giorni o prima, qualora la stessa legge non preveda un termine diverso), periodo durante il quale tutti i cittadini possono prendere coscienza della nuova legge (ignorantia legis non excusat) . Questo periodo prende il nome di vacatio legis. * Trascorsa la vacatio legis la legge pubblicata entra in vigore, diventa cioè obbligatoria e coercitiva erga omnes. ==Iter legis aggravato== Per quanto riguarda le leggi costituzionali (i.e., quelle leggi che 1) integrano o modificano il testo della Costituzione e denominate leggi di riforma costituzionale, o 2) affiancano o completano disposizioni previste dalla Costituzione e denominate semplicemente leggi costituzionali), il procedimento legislativo è disciplinato nella parte II della Costituzione al titolo VI, sez. II dall'articolo 138. In questo caso il Parlamento adotta una procedura più complessa o rafforzata rispetto alle leggi ordinarie dal momento che la legge dovrà avere, dal punto di vista della gerarchia delle fonti del diritto, lo stesso rango della Costituzione. La procedura è pertanto detta iter legis aggravato. L'articolo 138, in particolare, non copre l'intero iter legis dal momento che non si pronuncia sulla iniziativa e, eccezion fatta per alcuni aspetti, sulla promulgazione e pubblicazione dell'atto. Ergo, nel silenzio della Costituzione, si ritiene, a livello di diritto costituzionale, che trovino applicazione le norme relative all' iter legis ordinario di cui sopra. La procedura aggravata, pertanto, si riferisce soltanto a particolari momenti dell'iter: vediamoli nel dettaglio. ===Fase della discussione=== In fase di discussione, le leggi che hanno natura costituzionale devono essere approvate da ciascun ramo del Parlamento (in assemblea plenaria o da parte della commissione competente deliberante) in due successive deliberazioni ad intervallo non minore di tre mesi. La prima deliberazione procede come descritto per una legge ordinaria (con eventuale traghetto) ed è richiesta la maggioranza relativa dei presenti per l'approvazione del progetto di legge. La seconda approvazione richiede almeno la maggioranza assoluta dei componenti. ===Fasi successive alla discussione e iniziativa referendaria=== A questo punto, dipendentemente dall'esito della seconda deliberazione, la strada che segue la legge approvata varia. Infatti, * Se entrambe le camere hanno votato la legge a maggioranza qualificata dei 2/3 dei componenti, la legge può essere immediatamente promulgata dal Presidente della Repubblica, essere pubblicata ed entrare in vigore. * Se una o entrambe le camere hanno votato la legge a maggioranza assoluta dei componenti, la legge non viene immediatamente promulgata, ma viene prima pubblicata su Gazzetta Ufficiale e, dunque, non entra ancora in vigore. Ciò per permettere, entro 3 mesi dalla pubblicazione, la richiesta di un referendum confermativo (c.d. referendum costituzionale) da parte di 500.000 elettori, 5 consigli regionali o 1/5 dei componenti di un ramo del Parlamento. Il referendum, previa legittimazione della richiesta da parte della Corte Costituzionale, viene calendarizzato entro 60 giorni dalla richiesta da parte del Presidente della Repubblica con decreto e in una data compresa tra il 50º e il 70º giorno successivo a suddetto decreto. Non è previsto alcun quorum strutturale, ma è sufficiente la maggioranza dei voti validi per determinarne l'esito. ===Entrata in vigore=== La legge viene allora promulgata ed entra in vigore, oltre al caso di cui al punto 1, qualora sia stata approvata dalla maggioranza dei voti validi al referendum. In caso contrario, la legge costituzionale viene annullata e non entrerà in vigore. {{Template:Diritto costituzionale}} 8nd3qxyvwfmy5duj4dn2n84xk99pyj7 Discussioni utente:Samuele2002/Wikidata 3 31487 283524 283458 2026-04-07T14:56:33Z MediaWiki message delivery 10486 /* Wikidata weekly summary #726 */ nuova sezione 283524 wikitext text/x-wiki == Wikidata weekly summary #682 == <div class="plainlinks mw-content-ltr" lang="en" dir="ltr"> [[File:Wikidata-logo-en.svg|150px|right]] <div style="margin-top:10px; padding-left:5px; font-family:Georgia, Palatino, Palatino Linotype, Times, Times New Roman, serif;">'' Here's your quick overview of what has been happening around Wikidata in the<br>week leading up to 2025-06-02.

Wikiproject P244 maintenance uses SPARQL queries to identify and resolve two types of constraint violations in Wikidata: instances of Wikidata items with more than one LCNAF identifier and instances of the same LCNAF identifier existing on more than one Wikidata item. The February 17th session walked participants through how to resolve the former issue, while the March 3rd session will focus on the latter. This session will be more discussion-focused, since instances where two LCNAF identifier have the same Wikidata item can be difficult to resolve because of Wikidata’s innate quirks.

Volevo lasciare un ultimo messaggio su itwiki, nella mia talk, ma mi limito a ringraziarti per tutto. Qualche anno fa mi è stata fatta questa dedica: :::::::{{Citazione|usa il tuo sorriso per cambiare il mondo e non lasciare che il mondo cambi il tuo sorriso}}. So quello che hai passato, dentro e fuori di qui :-) :::::::Un carissimo saluto, [[Utente:Smatteo499|Smatteo499]] ([[Discussioni utente:Smatteo499|Discussione]]) 10:37, 2 apr 2026 (CEST) ::::::::Ciao caro {{ping|Smatteo499}}, mi dispiace davvero tanto. Spero non sia una decisione irrevocabile (anche se, a conti fatti, sembrerebbe esserla). Non so cosa può avere portato ad una simile decisione, ma da parte mia ti chiedo di rifletterci un attimino (di ottimi utenti ne abbiamo pochi, e ogni perdita di questa portata è terribile). Spero altresì, che se tu decida di fare quanto letto, ti possa ripresentare più in là con una differente utenza (poi basta che mi scrivi in privato per farmi sapere che sei tu). Da parte mia stima assoluta ad un amico insostituibile. Un caro saluto e spero vivamente di risentirti--[[Utente:Quinlan83|Quinlan83]] ([[Discussioni utente:Quinlan83#top|Discussione]]) 10:48, 2 apr 2026 (CEST) :::::::::Per adesso sì, la decisione è irrevocabile, ed è qualche giorno che ci rifletto. Noterai che mi sono dimesso qui... E (visto che lo dici) gli ottimi utenti sono altri, io non nego di aver dato il mio modesto contributo, ma adesso è giusto così. Se tornerò, più in là, lo credo e lo spero, ma ripeto, è giusto così (ora). Mi paleserò sicuramente a te e agli altri utenti che ho incontrato con saggezza ed eleganza immense. Scrivo qualcosa anche di là :-) [[Utente:Smatteo499|Smatteo499]] ([[Discussioni utente:Smatteo499|Discussione]]) 10:53, 2 apr 2026 (CEST) ::::::::::Un abbraccio caro [[Utente:Smatteo499|Smatteo499]] ([[Discussioni utente:Smatteo499|Discussione]]) 10:53, 2 apr 2026 (CEST) :::::::::::{{ping|Smatteo499}} per me continui ad essere nel gruppo degli "ottimi", e confido nel fatto che questo sia solo un arrivederci.
