Per un profilo di padre Tommaso Corsetto, tra biografia e lessicografia
No full textThis contribution aims to shed light on the figure of Tommaso Corsetto, a Dominican cleric who played an active role in the drafting of the Dizionario della lingua italiana by Niccolò Tommaseo and Bernardo Bellini. This paper will analyse the life and work of the 19th-century linguist, philologist, translator and lexicographer, with a view to highlighting the many facets of his character. The investigation is grounded in unpublished documents, including the correspondence between Corsetto and Tommaseo, which is preserved in the Biblioteca Nazionale Centrale in Florence. The documents examined reveal not only his involvement in the revision of Tommaseo's version of the Vangeli, but also and above all his influence on other significant lexicographic works of the 19th century, including Giuseppe Manuzzi's Vocabolario della lingua italiana and the fifth edition of the Vocabolario della Crusca. A thorough analysis of his contributions to Tommaseo-Bellini, which number over five thousand, corroborates his substantial influence on the development and codification of the Italian language during the 19th century
Improved group sampling plans under odd-Perks-Lomax model with limited risks
No full textIn this article, a group sampling scheme for lot sentencing is developed under time-censoring when the lifetime of a product follows the odd-Perks-Lomax distribution. The test plans are constructed by limiting a linear combination of the producer and consumer risks from frequentist and Bayesian frameworks. Integer nonlinear programming are used to designate the optimal number of groups and acceptance limit. Several tables and figures are constructed to scrutinize the performance of the proposed testing strategies. The proposed optimal test plans outperform the traditional optimal two-point plan in terms of sample size. Furthermore, using prior information for defectives proportion increases the effectiveness of the proposed plans. A numerical example is provided to demonstrate the application of the introduced scheme.

Sarah Austin’s Transnational Advocacy for National Education in Nineteenth-Century Europe
No full textThis article examines the pioneering work of the British writer Sarah Austin (née Taylor, 1793-1867) who, in the nineteenth century, asserted her intellectual and political agency as a translator. A highly acclaimed interpreter of innovative philosophical and scholarly texts originally produced in French and German, Austin ascertained the high-level competence and agency crucial to producing a text for monolingual readers and the significant role that translation plays in stimulating social, political, and cultural change. Notably, translation skills were at the basis of her enduring contribution to shaping the discourse on national education in nineteenth-century Britain, which started with her translation into English of Victor Cousin’s Rapport sur l’État de l’instruction publique dans quelques pays de l’Allemagne et particulièrement en Prusse (1833). This article reclaims her engagement with intellectual and political debates on compulsory education, as a transnational, plurilingual advocate for primary education, and demonstrates how translation activism sustains archival research that recovers women’s agency and revises historiographies of translation studies. It focuses on Austin’s Report on The State of Public Instruction in Prussia (1834) together with On National Education (1839) and Two Letters on Girls’ Schools and on the Training of Working Women (1857) to show how, in the nineteenth century, Austin understands that, in the words of Patricia Hill Collins, “honing skills of translation constitutes both an important intellectual challenge and a political necessity” (in Castro, Ergun 2017, p. xii). In Women and Education, 1800-1980 (2004), Jane Martin and Joyce Goodman claim a place for Austin in the British history of education. This article asserts her innovative contribution with her distinctive act of cross-cultural literary production to widen our understanding of her transnational legacy as an advocate of primary education by examining specifically her translation theory and practice along with her writing on national education and women’s education
