Staroslavjanskij perevod Slova 44 Grigorija Nazianzina: Gomiliarij Michanoviča i drevnerusskie spiski (predvaritel’nye tekstologičeskie zametki)
No full textThe paper focuses on the textual criticism of the earliest Slavonic version of Gregory of Nazianzus’
Oration 44 on New Sunday (Sunday of Thomas). This translation has come down to
us in a number of Old Russian copies dating from the 14th to the 17th century, as well as in
the so-called Homiliary of Mihanović, a Serbian codex of the late 13th - early 14th centuries,
kept in the Archive of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts in Zagreb. The present work
represents the first attempt to comprehensively undertake a text-critical analysis of the oldest
Slavonic translation of this homily. The research is based on all available manuscript evidence,
belonging to different typologies of collections of both East and South Slavic origin. On the
basis of the textual comparison of the witnesses, the author provides evidence for a common
origin of the Serbian and Russian traditions. The conclusion is reached that the origin of the
corpus must be traced back to the earliest periods of Old Church Slavonic literature. Moreover,
the primary textual layer of the translation appears to have originated prior to its inclusion in
the Liturgical collection of the Sixteen Homilies, and long before Nicetas of Heraclea’s Commentaries
were translated from Greek and appended to the Slavonic version of Gregory of
Nazianzus’ works

Sustainability perspectives and spatial patterns of multiple ecosystem services in the Venice lagoon: Possible roles in the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive
No full textThe multiple ecosystem services (ES) co-produced by social-ecological systems include ES directly resulting from ecosystem functioning, and ES mediated by human activities, which can have negative effects on the system and on the ES provided. As a result, different patterns of multiple ES delivery can be characterized by sustainable or unsustainable trends over time, depending on the interactions occurring among ES. In this paper, a sustainability perspective was used for the identification of desirable and undesirable ES delivery patterns in the water bodies of the Venice lagoon (Italy). A set of 13 ES was quantitatively mapped for the lagoon's water bodies, and the trends of the ES provided by each water body have been explored through a modeling application. Two aggregated indicators, MED/DIR and PRESS/DIR, calculated based on the mapping outcomes, were found to be strongly associated with the modeled trends, and thus provide a synthetic indication of the potential (un)sustainability of the current ES provision. This sustainability-driven analysis paves the way for an operationalization of the ES concept in the context of the implementation of the EU Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC). Based on the analysis of the relationships between multiple ES and ecological status, we suggest that ES could play a role in the selection of the biological quality elements, by prioritizing the metrics that are positively associated with the sustainable ES patterns. Adopting a perspective focused on sustainability, the ES concept can be used to define management trajectories that aim to reach the WFD targets through the management of unsustainable ES patterns, in the context of climate change
Comparison between glass and glass-ceramic silica-hafnia matrices on the down-conversion efficiency of Tb 3+ /Yb 3+ rare earth ions
No full textIn this paper, the investigation of energy transfer efficiency in Tb3+-Yb3+ co-doped SiO2-HfO2 glass and glassceramic
waveguides is presented. Cooperative energy transfer between these two ions allows to cut one UV or
488 nm photon in two 980 nm photons and could have important applications in improving the performance of
photovoltaic solar cells. Thin films with different molar concentrations of rare earths, up to a total concentration
of 21%, were prepared by a sol-gel route, using dip-coating deposition technique on SiO2 substrates. The ratio
between Yb3+ and Tb3+ ions in all the prepared thin films is constant and equal to 4. The energy transfer
between Tb3+ and Yb3+ ions in glass and glass-ceramic waveguides shows the higher efficiency for glassceramic
with a maximum quantum transfer efficiency of about 190% for the sample containing 19% of rare
earths
