Screening trematodes for novel intervention targets: a proteomic and immunological comparison of <i>Schistosoma haematobium</i>, <i>Schistosoma bovis</i> and <i>Echinostoma caproni</i>
With the current paucity of vaccine targets for parasitic diseases, particularly those in childhood, the aim of this study was to compare protein expression and immune cross-reactivity between the trematodes <i>Schistosoma haematobium</i>, <i>S. bovis</i> and <i>Echinostoma caproni</i> in the hope of identifying novel intervention targets. Native adult parasite proteins were separated by 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis and identified through electrospray ionisation tandem mass spectrometry to produce a reference gel. Proteins from differential gel electrophoresis analyses of the three parasite proteomes were compared and screened against sera from hamsters infected with <i>S. haematobium</i> and <i>E. caproni</i> following 2-dimensional Western blotting. Differential protein expression between the three species was observed with circa 5% of proteins from <i>S. haematobium</i> showing expression up-regulation compared to the other two species. There was 91% similarity between the proteomes of the two S <i>chistosoma</i> species and 81% and 78.6% similarity between <i>S. haematobium</i> and <i>S. bovis</i> versus <i>E. caproni</i>, respectively. Although there were some common cross-species antigens, species-species targets were revealed which, despite evolutionary homology, could be due to phenotypic plasticity arising from different host-parasite relationships. Nevertheless, this approach helps to identify novel intervention targets which could be used as broad-spectrum candidates for future use in human and veterinary vaccines

Giorgio Caproni e la "retractatio" d'Enea
Il contributo offre una rilettura del poemetto Il Passaggio d’Enea (1952) di G. Caproni alla luce della narrazione virgiliana. Il confronto coi luoghi classici consente una comprensione profonda del testo, specialmente del personaggio di Euridice, dietro cui si cela una contaminazione di miti. Già da Ennio e Pausania si attesta, infatti, la denominazione di Euridice per Creusa: un’ambiguità giocata da Virgilio stesso, in una intima forma di rinnovamento dell’epos, recuperata qui da Caproni.
This paper conducts a new reading of Caproni’s short poem Il passaggio di Enea (1952). Compared with Vergil’s narration, Caproni’s text allows for a deeper and more complex understanding. The character of Euridice in particular, who is comprised of two interwoven myths, encourages new insights. Ennio and Pausania allready use the name of Euridice in place of Creusa’s; Caproni recovers the ambiguity of Vergil's lines, offering a retake on the latter’s notion of revitalized epos
Corpo e poesia em Giorgio Caproni
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-graduação em Literatura, 2019O corpo revela-se um elemento constante na produção poética e narrativa de Giorgio Caproni, e torna-se o objeto de estudo desta pesquisa. Para isso, propõe-se uma reflexão do corpo desde sua manifestação até seu desenvolvimento ao longo da produção literária de Caproni. As experiências e vivências particulares do poeta, que transbordam para o campo literário, também são levadas em consideração para pensar se o corpo que entra em contato com o ?eu? poético-narrativo é sempre exposto da mesma forma ou se existem mudanças significativas, para verificar de que forma ocorre o contato entre os corpos. De modo a contribuir para a pesquisa, buscou-se o suporte teórico de autores como W. Benjamin, M. Heidegger, G. Agamben e J.-L. Nancy. Ao longo do trabalho, estabeleceu-se uma divisão expressiva na produção de Caproni, tendo a experiência na Segunda Guerra Mundial como o divisor de águas de sua escrita. Ao final, observou-se que com a traumática experiência bélica, mudanças poéticas relevantes e um corpo sempre mais ausente, o olhar do poeta em relação ao corpo se modifica ao longo de suas publicações.Abstract: The body presents itself as a constant element in Giorgio Caproni?s poetic and narrative, and for this reason it becomes the object of study of this research. In this regard, it is proposed a reflection of the body from its manifestation until its development along Caproni?s literary production. The poet?s particular experiences which aboundes into the literary field, are also taken into consideration in thinking whether the body that comes into contact with the poetic-narrative self is always exposed in the same way or if there are significant changes, to verify how contact occurs between bodies. In order to contribute to the research, we sought the theoretical support of authors such as W. Benjamin, M. Heidegger, G. Agamben and J.-L. Nancy. Throughout the work, a significant division was established in Caproni?s production, having the experience in World War II as the watershed of his writing. In the end, it was observed that with the traumatic war experience, there was a relevant change in his poetic and an ever more absent body, the poet?s view of the body changes throughout his publications

L'estrema volontà (Studi su Caproni, Fortini, Scialoja)
Il volume raccoglie tre studi su libri che vengono ritenute di particolare valore testamentario nell’opera poetica di G. Caproni, F.Fortini, T. Scialoja. A Caproni viene dedicato un lungo studio che culmina nella lettura del Seme del piangere, così come si è andato costituendo in una densa elaborazione scrittoria riccamente documentata nell’Apparato critico contenuto nell’edizione dei Meridiani Mondadori. Di Fortini si analizza Composita solvantur e di T.Scialoja i Versi del senso perso. (in english) The book collects three essays on the poets G.Caproni, F.Fortini, and T. Scialoja. Specifically, the book examines the testamentary value of three collections: Il seme del piangere, Composita solvantur and Versi del senso perso. The most important essay is dedicated to Caproni’s Il seme del piangere; it is studied comparing the definitive text to the many variants collected in the Meridiani Mondadori edition, with its rich documentation of the poet’s writing process
