Edoardo Sanguineti's theatrical "travestimenti". Forms and styles
No full textopenIn modo costante ma quasi sotterraneo rispetto alla più nota produzione lirica, saggistica e narrativa, dalla fine degli anni Sessanta ai primi anni Duemila Edoardo Sanguineti sperimenta e sviluppa un particolare genere teatrale, lavorando su una varietà di materiali: i "Sonnets" shakespeariani, le ottave del "Furioso" e le terzine della "Divina Commedia", drammi quali il "Faust" e i "Sei personaggi in cerca d’autore", il canovaccio gozziano "L’amore delle tre melarance". Né adattamenti, né parodie, né traduzioni, le opere che risultano ricevono dall’autore la definizione di “travestimenti” e si offrono a una ricerca che, attraversando aspetti strutturali, scenici, linguistici e metrici, tenti di restituirne la complessa quanto affascinante fisionomia peculiare.In a constant but almost underground way compared to the most famous lyric, non-fiction and narrative production, from the late '60s to the early 2000s Edoardo Sanguineti experiments and develops a particular theatrical genre, working on a variety of materials: the shakespearean "Sonnets", the ottave of "Furioso" and the terzine of "Divina Commedia", dramas such as "Faust" and "Sei personaggi in cerca d'autore", Gozzi's canovaccio "L'amore delle tre melarance". Neither adaptations, nor parodies, nor translations, the works that result receive from the author the definition of "travestimenti" and offer themselves to a research that, going through structural, scenic, linguistic and metrical aspects, tries to render their complex and fascinating peculiar physiognomy
Fast non-destructive determination of chlorophylls in apple skin
No full textThe evaluation of the chlorophyll content in fruit peel is usually performed by means of complex destructive procedures that include extraction and separation. In the present work, a non-destructive procedure, based on UV-Vis spectroscopy in the diffuse reflectance mode, is proposed for the quantitative measurement of both chlorophylls a and b, utilising the spectral range in which molecules other than chlorophylls show low absorbance. Two methods are presented and compared, one based on multivariate analysis over the whole range, and the other based on a linear regression at two meaningful wavelength
Dieci inedite schede dantesche di Edoardo Sanguineti: prime ricognizioni nel Fondo Eredi della Wunderkammer
No full textNei primi mesi del 2021 il Centro Studi Interuniversitario Edoardo Sanguineti ha acquisito nuovi documenti provenienti dallo studio del poeta Edoardo Sanguineti e raccolti nel Fondo Eredi Sanguineti: tra le numerose risorse, figurano dieci schede dattiloscritte simili a quelle destinate alle opere UTET; simili, ma probabilmente finalizzate ad altri usi, visto che il focus non è sui lemmi, ma sui versi danteschi citati nelle Rime di Sacchetti e nelle Prediche sopra l’esito di Savonarola, due delle fonti utilizzate nelle ricerche lessicografiche.In the early months of 2021 Inter-University Study Center Edoardo Sanguineti got new archival resources from Edoardo Sanguineti’s studio, then collected in the Eredi Sanguineti fund. In the collection of papers, ten typescript tiles stand out, similar to those intended for UTET dictionaries, but probably meant for other destination: indeed, in the ten unpublished tiles the author focused on Dante’s verses honored in Franco Sacchetti’s and Girolamo Savonarola’s works
Edoardo Mantega, Annìle
No full textA review of Edoardo Mantega's novel Annìle, ovvero falsa fiaba della montagna di ferro (Il Maestrale, Nuoro, 2024).
Giving the mountain a voice is the successful challenge taken up by the author, who develops a story that is both fairy-tale-like and lyrical. Through the learning of language, thanks to Maddalena's teachings, the story reveals important meta-literary reflections on the unity of the subject and the question of the author's position with respect to the content of the narrative. The life and history of the mountain are depicted up to the fire that devastated it.Una recensione studio sul romanzo di Edoardo Mantega Annìle, ovvero falsa fiaba della montagna di ferro, (Il Maestrale, Nuoro 2024).
Far parlare la montagna è la scommessa riuscita cui attende l’autore sviluppando una vicenda che tra il fiabesco e il lirico, nell’apprendimento del linguaggio, grazie agli insegnamenti di Maddalena, lascia trasparire importanti riflessioni metaletterarie sull’unità del soggetto e la questione della posizione dell’autore rispetto ai contenuti della narrazione. Si configura la vita e la storia della montagna fino all’incendio che l'ha devastata

Abstract
PURPOSE: To evaluate the role of topical mitomycin C in corneal wound healing (CWH) after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) in highly myopic eyes.
DESIGN: Prospective, double-masked, randomized clinical trial.
PARTICIPANTS: Seventy-two eyes of 36 patients affected by high (>7 diopters) myopia.
METHODS: In each patient, one eye was randomly assigned to PRK with intraoperative topical 0.02% mitomycin C application, and the fellow eye was treated with a placebo. Postoperatively, mitomycin C-treated eyes received artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months), whereas the fellow eye was treated with fluorometholone sodium 2% and artificial tears (3 times daily, tapered in 3 months).
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Uncorrected visual acuity (UCVA) and best-corrected visual acuity (BCVA), contrast sensitivity, manifest refraction, and biomicroscopy. Contrast sensitivity was determined using the Pelli-Robson chart. Corneal confocal microscopy documented CWH.
RESULTS: Mean follow-up was 18 months (range, 12-36). No side effects or toxic effects were documented. At 12-month follow-up examination, UCVAs (logarithm of the minimum angle of resolution) were 0.4+/-0.48 and 0.5+/-0.53 (P = .03) in mitomycin C-treated eyes and corticosteroid-treated eyes, respectively. At 1 year, corneal haze developed in 20% of corticosteroid-treated eyes, versus 0% of mitomycin C-treated eyes. At 12, 24, and 36 months, corneal confocal microscopy showed activated keratocytes and extracellular matrix significantly more evident in untreated eyes (Ps = 0.004, 0.024, and 0.046, respectively).
CONCLUSION: Topical intraoperative application of 0.02% mitomycin C can reduce haze formation in highly myopic eyes undergoing PRK.

The European Employment Strategy as Enhanced Coordination: A holistic approach to the EU social commitment
No full text The article proposes a holistic approach to the European Employment Strategy, from a conceptual, structural and functional point of view, within the framework of what the Author calls the Enhanced Coordination of EU and national Employment policies. The holistic approach encompasses all the stages of life of the human being, from education to retirement, in the perspective of guaranteeing social inclusion through work, focusing on the flexicurity pathway. In order to do this, the Author advocates for the need of earmarking investment at EU and national levels in favour of inclusive growth within the Stability Pact. </jats:p
Un articolo perduto e una lettera ritrovata. Carteggio Contini-Cecchi-Raimondi
No full textWhen Giuseppe Raimondi’s novel Giuseppe in Italia was published by Mondadori, in April 1949,
the author and his friends Gianfranco Contini and Emilio Cecchi began a period of intense correspondence.
Such correspondence, as presented herein, from May to August 1949, is evidence
of the deep friendship that existed in the relations between the three protagonists of Italian
literary culture and documents a “disagreement” between the great philologist and the author
of Pesci rossi which, in the light of some new letters, confirms again the rigour and ethical-moral
strictness which Contini always stood by, as much in his work as in his life
«Sortes biblicae» e tradizioni agiografiche fra IV e VI secolo
No full textThe use of the divinatory practice of the «sortes biblicae», direct heir of the ancient rhapsodomancy («sortes Homericae, sortes Vergilianae»), is frequently documented in the hagiographical sources between the fourth and the sixth centuries. The most famous episode of bibliomancy is transmitted by the eighth book of Augustine’s «Confessiones» («tolle, lege»). As narrated by his biographer Sulpicius Severus, also the episcopal election of Martin of Tours was decided by opening at random the book of Psalms. This hagiographical evidence remains, indeed, very problematic. Therefore, the early Church’s condemnation of the «sortes sanctorum» – commonly, but incorrectly, understood as a synonym for the divinatory consultation of the Bible – needs to be better explained
A model-based approach for evaluating exposure to extreme events in public health. A case study on the Lazio region
No full textA new Bayesian model-based approach is introduced to deal with extreme epidemiological events in the Lazio region. Given that extreme temperatures and high pollutant concentrations harm the population, the aim is to develop an innovative method to assess exposure. The proposal leverages the Bayesian approach, potentially providing public decision-makers with tools to allocate health resources based on health risks. It begins by exploring data on extreme temperatures and pollutants (particulate 10 and 2.5, NO2, ozone), considering the geographical features of the region and predictors from the literature. A new modeling proposal of another study is then used, focused on quantile auto-regression models for extreme events. The main output of this stage will be exposure surfaces based on marginal quantiles varying over time. Next, a second-level Bayesian model is implemented to scale to the national level. Among various options, nearest neighbors Gaussian process techniques offer optimal computational and probabilistic properties. The final output will provide tools for assessing exposures in environmental epidemiology, aiding public health applications. Extreme temperature stress will be more relevant among older age groups, while extreme pollution events could be linked to diseases in young people, possibly connecting individual histories to exposure evolution
