Sulla frase 'partus sequitur ventrem' in Von der Poesie im Recht di Jacob Grimm.
Get PDFEnIn Jacob Grimm's Von der Poesie im Recht appears the phrase 'partus sequitur ventrem'. Grimm claims that this is a rule (so Grimm) of archaic Roman law. But this is not the case. The 'rule' appears only in the Middle Ages, most likely based on Roman sources, with a wide diffusion. A particularly important context is that of slavery in the colonies, primarily British in North America (Virginia). Grimm probably uses the phrase for its expressive force.ItIn Von der Poesie im Recht di Jacob Grimm appare la frase 'partus sequitur ventrem'. Grimm afferma che si tratta di una regola (così Grimm) del diritto romano arcaico. Ma non è così.

Un contesto particolarmente importante è quello della schiavitù nelle colonie, in primo luogo britanniche nel Nord America (Virginia). Probabilmente Grimm usa la frase per la sua forza espressiva

«Quia simile est, quasi perdituro pecuniam sciens credideris» (D. 17.1.12.11, Ulp. 31 ad ed.)
Get PDFEnThe essay analyses the phrase «quia simile est, quasi perdituro pecuniam sciens credideris» present in D. 17.1.12.11 (Ulp. 31 ad ed.), which Ulpian inserts as a ratio to deny the actio mandati contraria in favour of someone who knowingly accepted a mandate to provide surety to a prostitute from a lustful adolescent. In particular, it has been found that the Severian jurist, with this expression, intended to refer not to the minor, as has been hypothesized, but, in general, to a subject who was perditurus, that is, a spendthrift, who, therefore, would have been relieved from returning what he had received as a loan, if the lender had been aware of his propensity to waste. Furthermore, the sources would suggest that the condition of perditurus justified particular treatments, aimed on the one hand at protecting their patrimonial position, and on the other at sanctioning those who, despite being aware of their tendency to waste, had nevertheless contracted with them.ItIl saggio analizza la frase «quia simile est, quasi perdituro pecuniam sciens credideris» presente in D. 17.1.12.11 (Ulp. 31 ad ed.), che Ulpiano inserisce quale ratio per negare l'actio mandati contraria a favore di colui che scientemente avesse accettato un mandato a prestare fideiussione ad una meretrice da parte di un adolescente lussurioso. In particolare, si è riscontrato come il giurista severiano, con tale espressione, intendesse riferirsi non al minore, come è stato ipotizzato, ma, in via generale, ad un soggetto che fosse perditurus, cioè uno scialacquatore, il quale, quindi, sarebbe stato sollevato dal restituire quanto ricevuto in prestito, qualora il mutuante fosse stato consapevole della sua propensione allo sperpero. Dalle fonti, inoltre, risulterebbe che la condizione di perditurus giustificasse trattamenti particolari, miranti da un lato a tutelare la loro posizione patrimoniale, dall'altro a sanzionare chi, nonostante avesse contezza della loro indole allo sperpero, avesse comunque contratto con loro
Relationships between Smoking Rate and COVID-19 Death Rate when Both Variables are Subject to Errors: Arab World Case Study
Get PDFWhile there is a growing body of research on the relationship between smoking and COVID-19 outcomes, there is a lack of comprehensive stud- ies focusing specifically on the Arab world. Understanding the potential impact of smoking on COVID-19 death rates in this region is crucial for in- forming public health interventions and policies. This article discusses the relationship between the smoking rate and the COVID-19 death rate in the Arab world. The data was gathered from the World Health Organization (WHO) records. The measurement error model (MEM) is used to study the relationship between smoking rate and COVID-19, considering the er- rors in both variables. Different estimation methods including the maximum likelihood estimation (MLE), Wald-type methods, and repeated median es- timation methods, were used to fit the MEM model to the data. The results showed that Jordan and Lebanon, respectively, had the highest smoking rates while Yemen, Egypt, and Algeria, respectively, had the highest COVID-19 death within the Arab countries. Fitting the data to MEM, the data analysis showed that Smoking has a positive effect on COVID-19
Los glosarios financieros electrónicos en español y portugués como instrumentos de educación financiera en Latinoamérica
Get PDFThis study presents a novel comparative analysis of lexicographic tools created within the framework of financial education and inclusion initiatives in Latin America. In recent years, central banks and financial authorities around the world have taken on the task of facilitating access to financial education, aligning with global initiatives like the OECD's International Network on Financial Education (INFE). Among other instruments aimed at enhancing citizens’ financial literacy, monolingual glossaries of economic and financial terms can be found on the Internet portals of many Latin American central banks. The glossaries included in the study were selected based on their alleged use of simplified language, purpose, format, accessibility and subject, excluding those targeted at economic specialists. Moreover, to ensure comparability, the corpus focuses on glossaries with a minimum of ninety-nine defined terms, resulting in a set of five glossaries from the central banks of Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Mexico, and Paraguay. Similar glossaries from other Latin American central banks were excluded given that they had economic experts as their target public. The lexicographic resources were analyzed in light of a functional approach (Tarp 2000; Bergenholtz, Tarp 2002; Fuertes-Olivera, Tarp 2014), which places great attention not only on the structure and nature of the lemmas, but also on the author’s goals and explanations, the accessibility, the methodology and the use of internet technologies. The findings reveal significant disparities in terms of the composition, accessibility and relevance of the electronic financial glossaries produced by central banks in Latin America and serve as a foundation for future advancements in the fields of electronic lexicography and terminology for promoting financial education
