Alice Ceresa tra autobiografia e deformazione
No full textNella sua gioventù, Alice Ceresa ha vissuto un legame contrastato con la scrittura del sé, come ben dimostrano i suoi diari e alcune sue riflessioni pubbliche, risalenti agli anni Quaranta. In questi testi emerge l’immagine di un’autrice consapevole della necessità di superare la scrittura autobiografica, nonostante un’inclinazione e un forte interesse di lettrice per tale forma espressiva. Nello stesso periodo, e più precisamente tra il 1946 e il 1947, Ceresa si confronta direttamente con questa materia, cimentandosi nella scrittura di quattro brevi racconti, in cui dà forma a un’elaborazione molto originale del rapporto tra autobiografismo e invenzione letteraria. Questo cantiere letterario giovanile di Ceresa, che per comodità qui chiameremo delle “autobiografie immaginarie”, è infatti attraversato dal desiderio dell’autrice di sperimentare il rovesciamento del genere letterario massimamente votato al racconto diretto del sé. Infatti, in questi scritti — che l’autrice titola o sottotitola ironicamente “autobiografie” — troviamo quattro personaggi molto distanti dall’identità di Ceresa, che descrivono in prima persona la propria vita: un cannibale, un bambino piccolo, un uomo di successo e un anziano con la barba. In questo articolo si presenta l’inedito cantiere dell’autobiografismo immaginario di Ceresa che, come le altre carte dell’autrice, è conservato nel Fondo Ceresa della Biblioteca nazionale svizzera di Berna, all’interno dell’Archivio svizzero di letteratura, contestualizzandolo nella riflessione poetica coeva dell’autrice, nonché nella sua più vasta produzione narrativa. Oltre a ciò, si avanzano alcune interpretazioni tematiche e stilistiche dei testi, prendendo in esame i primi due racconti.

In her youth, Alice Ceresa experienced a thwarted connection with the writing of the self, as her diaries and some of her public reflections, dating back to the 1940s, well demonstrate. In these texts emerges the image of an author aware of the need to move beyond autobiographical writing, despite a strong inclination and interest as a reader in such forms of expression. In the same period, and more precisely between 1946 and 1947, Ceresa directly confronted this subject, trying her hand at writing four short stories, in which she gives shape to a highly original elaboration of the relationship between autobiography and literary invention. This juvenile “literary worksite” of Ceresa\u27s, which for the sake of convenience we shall call here "imaginary autobiographies”, is in fact traversed by the author\u27s desire to experiment with the reversal of the literary genre maximally devoted to the direct account of the self. In fact, in these writings-which the author ironically titles or subtitles "autobiographies"-we find four characters far removed from Ceresa\u27s identity, describing their lives in the first person: a cannibal, a small child, a successful man, and an old man with a beard. In this article we will present the “literary worksite” of Ceresa\u27s imaginary autobiography which, like the author\u27s other unpublished material, is preserved in the Ceresa Fund, contextualizing it in the author\u27s contemporary poetic reflection, as well as in her broader narrative production. In addition to this, some first thematic and stylistic interpretations of the texts will be put forward, examining the first two stories
Battle for Inbox and Bucks: Comparing Email Fundraising Strategies of Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the 2020 U.S. Presidential Election
No full textDespite its proven pervasiveness and effectiveness, the role of email in political campaigns has been understudied. In this article, we seek to understand the use of emails by Donald Trump\u27s and Joe Biden\u27s campaigns during the 2020 U.S. presidential election. Employing newly collected email data (N = 4051), we compared how the two campaign teams differ in the use of appeals in their emails, and the functions of the message (e.g., attack, acclaim). We found that, while both campaigns used emails primarily for fundraising, Trump\u27s campaign (compared to Biden’s campaign) was more likely to use all of the four appeals we defined — material, solidarity, ideology, and issue appeals. We also found that by sending emails, Biden\u27s campaign tends to acclaim itself more while Trump\u27s campaign attacks opponents more
Neurological emergency after dental implantat insertion - what now? A case report
No full textThe following case report presents a 37-year old male patient who was referred for an emergency assessment due to suspected neurovascular damage of the inferior alveolar nerve following placement of two implants in the posterior left mandible. Immediate explantation for nerve decompression is essential combined with supportive analgesic and antiphlogistic medication. Furthermore, oral glucocorticoids were prescribed, starting with 20mg with a stepwise phasing out of the medication thereafter.The following case report presents a 37-year old male patient who was referred for an emergency assessment due to suspected neurovascular damage of the inferior alveolar nerve following placement of two implants in the posterior left mandible.

Tooth preservation and "the untreatable or hopeless tooth": Re-thinking a concept
No full textDas Kauorgan steht im Mittelpunkt der zahnärztlichen Praxis. Zahnverlust wird als Organversagen betrachtet und stellt ein bedeutendes Problem dar. Trotz prothetischer Möglichkeiten sollte der Erhalt möglichst vieler Zähne angestrebt werden. Entscheidungen zwischen Zahnerhalt und Extraktion sind komplex und haben weitreichende Folgen. Dieser Artikel behandelt das Thema anhand eines klinischen Falls einer 43-jährigen Patientin mit ausgeprägter lokalisierter Parodontitis. Nach umfassender Diagnose und Behandlungsplanung wurde eine regenerative Therapie durchgeführt, um den Zahn zu erhalten. Der Fall zeigt, dass auch scheinbar hoffnungslose Zähne mit modernen Therapiemethoden bei zu guter Mundhygiene motivierbaren Patienten erfolgreich behandelt werden können. Erste Literaturdaten unterstützen die Möglichkeit, stark beeinträchtigte Zähne langfristig zu erhalten. Ein integrativer Behandlungsansatz, basierend auf individuellen Patientenfaktoren und modernen Regenerationstechniken, kann eine Alternative zur Extraktion und prothetischen Versorgung sein, obwohl er kostspielig und kompliziert ist. Dieser Artikel betont die Notwendigkeit präziser Diagnostik, umfassender Behandlungspläne und ehrlicher Kommunikation mit den Patienten über Erfolgsaussichten und Risiken sowie die Stärken des konsequenten Zahnerhalts.The masticatory organ is at the center of dental practice. Tooth loss, regarded as an organ failure, is a core dispute in our profession, as it more often than not does not happen spontaneously but is influenced by the dentist\u27s treatment plan. Despite the prosthetic possibilities of tooth replacement, efforts should be made to preserve as many teeth as possible. Decisions between tooth preservation and extraction are complex and have far-reaching consequences. This article discusses this problem using a clinical case study of a 43-year-old female patient with pronounced localized periodontitis. After a comprehensive diagnosis and treatment planning, a daring regenerative therapy was carried out to try to preserve the tooth. The case shows that even seemingly hopeless teeth can be successfully treated synchronously using modern therapeutic approaches. Initial literature data supports the possibility of preserving severely compromised teeth in the long term in compliant patients. An integrative treatment approach based on individual patient factors and modern regenerative techniques may well be a viable alternative to tooth extraction and prosthetic restoration, albeit not inexpensive and uncomplicated. This communication emphasizes the need for precise diagnostics, a comprehensive treatment plan, and honest communication with patients about the prospects of success and possible risks, and highlights the strengths of consistent tooth preservation
Impact of final rinse with saline or alcohol solution on root canal sealability
No full textEndodontic irrigation protocols are not only used to clean and disinfect the root canal system, but also to condition the canal wall dentine for subsequent root filling. In this study we tested whether a final irrigation step with saline solution or 80% ethanol improved root canal sealabilty by two popular sealers, an epoxy resin (AH Plus) and a hydraulic calcium silicate cement-based product (BioRoot RCS). Root canals in extracted single-rooted human teeth were instrumented and filled with a matched gutta-percha cone and sealer. During instrumentation and prior to root filling, sealer-specific irrigation protocols were applied. These involved a combined sodium hypochlorite/1-hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid application, which was followed by irrigation with ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) for AH Plus. Protocols were followed by a 5-ml ultimate rinse with saline solution or 80% ethanol. No such final rinse was the control (N = 9). Canals were then dried with matched paper points. One week after root filling and storage of the teeth at 37°C in a humid environment, Rhodamine B was used to trace leakage. Two-way ANOVA revealed that the type of sealer had a significant (P < 0.05) impact on apical dye penetration while the final rinse did not (P > 0.05). AH Plus provided the slightly better seal (P < 0.05). Leakage occurred between the sealer and the dentin with AH Plus, and between the sealer-to-dentin as well as the sealer-to-gutta-percha interface with BioRoot RCS. In summary and under current conditions, there was no benefit from applying saline or ethanol as an ultimate rinsing solution prior to drying the canal with matched paper points
«The end is where we start from» – Die Endlichkeit (in) der Psychoanalyse
No full textDie Beendigung einer Analyse oder Psychotherapie erfordert auf Seiten der Analytikerin1 wie der Analysandin Toleranz für Unsicherheit und Nicht-Wissen, für Trennung und Endlichkeit, für Begrenztheit und Vergänglichkeit. Konnten diese Themen im Verlauf der Analyse nicht bearbeitet und die entsprechenden Bewältigungskompetenzen noch nicht entwickelt werden, so werden sie in der Beendigungsphase auftauchen. Drei hilfreiche Haltungen der Analytikerin für den Umgang mit dem Ende werden angeführt: die Haltung der Abschiedlichkeit, die der Offenheit für Neues und die der Entschlossenheit. Sie erleichtern die Bewegung hin zum Neuen jenseits der Analyse und verhindern, dass die Behandlung endlos und damit zur Sackgasse – zum «Dead End» – wird
Bis in alle Ewigkeit? Konsolidierung und Transformation im postanalytischen Prozess
No full textDer vorliegende Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit den Herausforderungen und Chancen nach dem Ende einer analytischen Behandlung. Die spezifischen Anforderungen von Separation, Trauer, Verzicht, Identifikation, Internalisierung, Selbstanalyse und Generativität im postanalytischen Prozess können für Analysand und Analytikerin1 gleichermassen herausfordernd sein. Die Autorinnen beleuchten dabei sowohl die inneren postanalytischen Entwicklungsaufgaben für das analytische Paar als auch die reale äussere Gestaltung postanalytischen Kontakts nach Behandlungsende. Die postanalytische Zeit wird dabei als vulnerable Phase angesehen, die besondere Sorgfalt für die jeweilige analytische Dyade und deren individuellen Aushandlung einer postanalytischen Beziehung benötigt. Eine spezielle Form der postanalytischen Beziehung ist dabei die lehranalytische Beziehung, deren Einfluss und Wechselwirkung auf die Institutionskultur an analytischen Ausbildungsinstituten diskutiert wird
