Forme dell'autocommento goldoniano
Il Convegno affronta le più diverse forme di autocommento che registra la letteratura italiana dal Duecento al Novecento. Questo contributo in particolare affronta il tema dell'autocommento attuato da Goldoni nelle Prefazioni alle commedie fornendo esempi e lettura critica di alcuni testi in particolare, spesso discordanti con le letture critiche e sceniche di quegli stessi testi ma che aiutano a capire i termini entro i quali Goldoni vuole proporsi come drammaturgo e quale messaggio lasciare di sé ancora prima dei "Mémoires"
Il controllo ambientale nella formazione di giovani architetti: l'esperienza dell'Università IUAV
Il controllo ambientale nella formazione di giovani architetti: l’esperienza dell’Università Iuav
Questo contributo presenta un esperimento di integrazione tra discipline conservative e fisico-ambientali nello sviluppo di una tesi di laurea sviluppata presso l'Università IUAV di Venezia. L'esperienza ha permesso di testare un approccio multidisciplinare alla conservazione dei beni culturali nei luoghi di culto. I risultati più interessanti sono le soluzioni tecniche sviluppate in base alle caratteristiche dei materiali dell'architettura storica e alle specifiche problematiche conservative della Chiesa di San Giacomo dall'Orio a Venezia.This contribution presents an experiment of integration between conservation and physical-environmental disciplines in the development of a master thesis at IUAV University of Venice. The experience allowed to test a multidisciplinary approach to conservation of Cultural Heritage. The most interesting results are the technical solutions developed according to the material characteristics and the specific preservation issues of the Church of San Giacomo dall'Orio in Venice
Constraining Cycle Alternations in Model Checking for Interval Temporal Logic
Model checking is one of the most successful techniques in system verification. While a variety of methods and tools exist to check properties expressed in point-based temporal logics, like LTL and CTL, model checking for interval temporal logic has entered the research agenda only very recently. In previous work, we devised a non-elementary model checking procedure for Halpern and Shoham's modal logic of time intervals, interpreted over finite Kripke structures, and an EXPSPACE algorithm for two meaningful fragments of it. In this paper, we show that the latter algorithm can be suitably tailored in order to check a subset of the computations of a system, that satisfy a given bound on the number of cycle alternations, by making use of a polynomial (instead of exponential) working space. We also prove that such a revised algorithm turns out to be complete for Kripke structures whose strongly connected components are simple cycle
Recuperando a los Peron: Posmodemidad e intertextualidad en dos obras de Tomas Eloy Martinez
Recent history has been the central theme of Argentinean writer Tomas Eloy Martinez. In his two most recognized novels, La novela de Peron (1985) and Santa Evita (1995), he revisits the Peronist period in Argentinean history and attempts to re-write and re-signify traditional accounts of that history while presenting what he hopes is a more balanced interpretation of the Perons and their place in the nation\u27s history.
The present dissertation analyses how Martinez uses numerous postmodern narrative strategies such as metafiction, parody, and intertextuality to carry out his revisionist project in the above-mentioned novels. As a point of departure, the dissertation examines the author\u27s critical attitude towards historiography and his skepticism on how history has been represented in his country. Secondly, it studies the transgression of boundaries among literary genres which helps the author represent the Perons in a multifaceted and eclectic way. Through metafiction, the author shares the challenges he faces in the construction of his work, helps the reader follow the storyline, and present information that comes from the non-fictional world.
This dissertation also explains how Martinez uses parody in La novela de Peron to deconstruct the idealized version of hi story represented in Peron\u27s Las memorias del General. Of special note is the fact that intertextuality is the most used technique in both novels; indeed, Martinez enters in dialogue with a wide variety of literary sources to support his views on historiography and to bring into question the traditional portrayal of both Peron and Evita in Argentina and in Latin American history.
This dissertation concludes that Martinez\u27s two works with the current of postmodern novels which Linda Hutcheon has described as Historiographic Metafiction. That is to say, both novels are intensely self-reflexive and treat historiography as closely-related genres. In fact, Martinez\u27s novels are presented as an alternative to historical accounts of the past. For Martinez, through imagination one can speculate about what might have happened in those mysteries left unexplained by official history and the passing of time. With the diverse array of evidence presented in the novels, the reader is challenged to reevaluate the Perons legacy, a legacy which according to our reading of Martinez can be summarized in two words: authoritarianism and corruption
The Sorrow of Odin the Goth: gli dèi nordici nella ricezione di William Morris
Il saggio esamina la cosiddetta produzione nordica dell'intellettuale vittoriano William Morris. Dopo aver presentato l'avvicinamento di Morris alla materia nordica e il suo spiccato interesse per le saghe, l'autore concentra la propria attenzione sulla rappresentazione degli dèi germanici nelle opere di Morris. Se ne ricava una lettura di umanizzazione delle divinità che vengono avvicinate alla realtà umana, nelle sue sofferenze ma anche nella sua resistenza alle vicissitudini della vita con quello spirito eroico che tanto affascinava Morris anche nei personaggi delle saghe nordiche. Sono offerti anche estratti di traduzione da The Lovers of Gudrun.The essay examines the so-called Nordic production of the Victorian intellectual William Morris. After presenting Morris's approach to Nordic subjects and his marked interest in sagas, the author focuses on the representation of the Germanic gods in Morris's works. The result is a reading of the humanisation of the divinities, which are brought closer to human reality, in their suffering but also in their resistance to the vicissitudes of life with that heroic spirit which so fascinated Morris even in the characters of the Nordic sagas. Translation extracts from The Lovers of Gudrun are also offered
Healthcare transition from childhood to adulthood in Tuberous Sclerosis Complex
Healthcare transition from childhood to adulthood is required to ensure continuity of care of an increasing number of individuals with chronic conditions surviving into adulthood. The transition for patients with tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) is complicated by the multisystemic nature of this condition, age-dependent manifestations, and high clinical variability and by the presence of intellectual disability in at least half of the individuals. In this article, we address the medical needs regarding each TSC-related manifestation in adulthood, and the services and support required. We review existing models of transition in different chronic conditions, discuss our experience in transitioning from the pediatric to the adult TSC Clinic at our Institution, and propose general rules to follow when establishing a transition program for TSC. Although a generalizable transition model for TSC is likely not feasible for all Institutions, a multidisciplinary TSC clinic is probably the best model, developed in accordance with the resources available and country-specific healthcare systems. Coordination of care and education of the adult team should be always sought regardless of the transition model
