Le chiavi del Paradiso. Primato petrino e devozione mariana di Sisto IV tra Cappella Sistina e S. Maria della Pace
No full textIl volume è strutturato in due parti distinte con una postfazione, un indice dei nomi e n. 55 Tavole a colori fuori testo, valide per entrambe le parti del volume. I. PARTE (di Lorenzo Cappelletti) A partire dalla esplicita indicazione che l’ignoto architetto, collocato sul fianco destro dell’affresco sistino della Consegna delle chiavi di Perugino, fa dell’edificio a pianta centrale che campeggia sullo sfondo, viene operata una completa rilettura iconografica e iconologica dell’intero affresco. Tenendo conto di tutta la migliore bibliografia sul tema e grazie anche alla considerazione di fonti inedite o mai considerate in relazione a tale affresco –– vengono riletti in particolare i due episodi evangelici sullo sfondo, la teoria dei dodici apostoli e dei personaggi dell’attualità di fine Quattrocento e soprattutto il gesto della consegna delle chiavi a Simon Pietro da parte di Gesù.
La rilettura si allarga necessariamente anche alla Punizione di Core, Datan e Abiram, l’affresco di Botticelli posto in chiave tipologica dirimpetto alla Consegna delle chiavi, e alla serie dei 30/32 papi affrescati nel cleristorio.
Lo studio non manca di offrire inoltre spunti per una comprensione più adeguata anche degli altri affreschi quattrocenteschi della sistina. II PARTE (di Simona Benedetti) Nell’ambito della revisione di lettura iconologica e iconografica dell’affresco della Consegna delle chiavi di Perugino nella Cappella Sistina, svolta da Lorenzo Cappelletti, si torna a riflettere anche sul significato dell’architettura dell’edificio rappresentato al centro dell’affresco. In questo senso nel contributo di Simona Benedetti, in primo luogo, si ripercorrono i riferimenti alla trattatistica quattrocentesca in materia di edifici sacri, che possono aver influito nella determinazione dell’edificio ottagonale.
In seconda istanza, si considerano le principali fabbriche a pianta ottagonale costruite precedentemente all’edificio dipinto, che possono aver costituito un fondato riferimento per il Perugino nella Consegna delle chiavi.
In particolare tra le architetture, che possono avere avuto un’influenza determinante nella definizione iconografica della fabbrica ottagonale presente nell'affresco, la chiesa di S. Maria della Pace è quella su cui si concentra il presente studio. L'opera si realizzò nel cuore pulsante della Roma rinascimentale proprio contemporaneamente all’affresco in esame, con esso trova degli innegabili punti di tangenza e corrispondenze, sia storiche che figurative. A questo riguardo interessantissima risulta la connessione tra il motivo dell’edificazione della fabbrica e i fatti storici, i personaggi, gli eventi prodigiosi e le pratiche devozionali, che condizionarono lo svolgersi del cantiere del Templum Pacis negli ultimi anni del pontificato di Sisto IV. La storicità del gesto della consegna delle chiavi a Pietro - avvenimento che si protrae nel tempo ad ogni elezione pontificia nello spazio fisico della Cappella Sistina - costituisce la centralità del messaggio iconografico dell'affresco del Perugino in cui, anche l’architettura, insieme ai personaggi rappresentati, strutturano una narrazione reale, estranea alle simbologie decontestualizzate dall’epoca propriamente sistina. Segue una postfazione di Francesco Andreani dal titolo Enigma del Quattrocento, saggio nel quale si sviluppano considerazioni sulle personalità degli architetti e maestranze attive nella Roma del tardo Quattrocento e negli anni di inizio della fabbrica di S. Maria della Pace. Il volume si conclude con l'indice dei nomi (a cura di Gemma Fusciello)I (of Lorenzo Cappelletti) Starting from the unknown architect’s forefinger pointed to the central plan building found in the background of the Sistine Perugino’s fresco The Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven, the author offers a new interpretation of the entire fresco at both an iconographical and iconological level.
Having considered the most important studies about this fresco and taking into account a number of unpublished and unconsidered sources, the author rereads in particular the meaning of the central plan building, as well as the two Gospel episodes in the background; and he rereads also the grouping of the Twelve, along with the fifteenth century historical personages painted among them, in the foreground.
The author’s vision necessarily broodens also to comprehend Botticelli’s fresco named The Punishment of Corah, Dathan and Abiram which is placed on the opposite wall as a typological prefiguration of The Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven; and it broodens moreover to reconsider the series of 30/32 popes frescoed in the upper register of the Sistine Chapel.
The essay also offers hints for a more complete comprehension of the other fifteenth century frescoes of the Sistine Chapel.
II. (of Simona Benedetti) As part of the review of iconological and iconographic reading about the fresco of the “Delivery of the keys” by Perugino in the Sistine Chapel, conducted by Lorenzo Cappelletti, you go back and think about the significance of the building architecture depicted in the center of the fresco. In this sense, the contribution of Simona Benedetti, first, retraces the references to the fifteenth-century treatises concerning sacred buildings, which may have affected the determination of the octagonal building. Secondly, we consider the main factories octagonal building constructed previously painted, that may have been an established reference for the Perugino in the “Delivery of the keys”. Especially between architectures, which may have had a decisive influence in defining the iconographic factory octagonal present in the fresco, the church of St. Mary of Peace is the one on which this study focuses. The work was realized in the heart of Renaissance Rome just simultaneously fresco concerned, although it is undeniable points of contact and correspondence, both historical and figurative. In this regard are interesting connections between the reason of building the factory, the historical facts, the characters and the miraculous events and devotional, which has conditioned the unfolding of the construction site of the Templum Pacis in the last years of the pontificate of Sixtus IV. The historicity of the act of handing over the keys to Peter, that continues over time in the physical space of the Sistine Chapel, is the centrality of the iconographic message of the fresco by Perugino; so even the architecture, along with the characters represented, the real narrative structure, far from to the symbolism belonging to the Sistine period properly

Poetare è abbreviare»: la poesia avanguardista di Franz Richard Behrens (1895 - 1977) tra forma lirica ‘riduzionista’ e ‘costruttivismo’ (1916 - 1925)
Central to this article is the relationship between ‘reductionistic’ lyrical form and ‘constructivism’ in the avant-garde poetry of the Berlin poet Franz Richard Behrens (1895 - 1977), who was not only a trained journalist and volunteer soldier in World War I, but also the author of a number of film scripts after 1918. It takes into account the whole period of time from 1916 to 1925 through alternating biographical reconstructions, thorough examinations of the historic-cultural context and formal and thematic analyses of poetic texts. This is the period within which is set the beginning and the end of his collaboration with the Berlin Expressionistic review «Der Sturm», which was edited by the eclectic Herwarth Walden (1878 - 1941), from his first published poetry, Expressionist Artillerist, in February 1916 up to his last, Mein Haus ist ein Bethaus, in March 1925. A collaboration which, in the same period of time, concerns a number of other avant-garde reviews, among which one should mention the German reviews «Die schöne Rarität» (Kiel) and «Die Aktion» (Berlin) and the Croatian «Zenit» (Zagreb). This article is presented, to the best of the author’s knowledge, as the first organic, albeit concise critical contribution in Italian on this unjustly unrecognized German poet of the 20th century, by means of presenting at the same time an initial and short analytical overview of both the expert studies and the current philological research perspectives concerning the author. The article also seeks to emphasize how the ambiguities of this ideological author seem to be ascribed to and considered as integral to his linguistic formulations, so that these appear as if they were deliberately sought after so as to hinder single efforts aimed at an unequivocal interpretation with regard to this aspect. In particular, the essay which follows aims at making a summary of the evolution of Behrens’s lyrical technique by describing its passage from an initial so – called ‘phase of verbal art’ (‘Wortkunst’-Phase, 1914 - 1918), marked by a still strong influence of August Stramm’s (1874 - 1915) lyric forms, through a second, transitory period, which is characterized by the prevalent use of ‘mixed forms’ (‘Mischformen’, 1917 - 1921), and then to a third and conclusive ‘phase of objectivity’ (‘sachliche Phase’, 1921 - 1925), which closes with a ‘withdrawal’ of language into the depths of the soul and the falling into silence of his poetry. This last stage is characterized by a progressive transformation of the Expressionist poetic word into a ‘stock’ of materials that stand halfway between poetry and prose by making use of ‘montage’ procedures
La herencia de Italia en Mario Benedetti
No full textWith no doubt, Mario Benedetti has got a lot of things to share with Italy. His surname, his social environment, everything clearly refers to a family background very popular in the River Plate. Although the author never betrays his Uruguayan roots, you can easily recognize both direct and indirect debts with our peninsula through his works and interviews.Indudablemente, Mario Benedetti tiene muchos puntos de contacto con Italia. Desde su apellido hasta el entorno social, todo hace referencia tanto a un pasado familiar como a un espacio cultural compartido por la mayoría de los rioplatenses. Aunque nunca el autor traiciona su vocación auténticamente uruguaya, a través de sus obras y de sus entrevistas es posible reconocer la deuda directa e indirecta con nuestra península
L’architetto progettista della nuova Collegiata e la cultura architettonica lombarda
No full textl contributo, costituisce il terzo capitolo del volume ed è strutturato in due paragrafi in cui si torna a riflettere sull’attribuzione del progetto architettonico dell'interessantissima Collegiata del San Giovanni Battista Morbegno, edificata tra il 1680 ed il 1714, oggi quasi completamente restaurata dalla Fondazione Isabel & Balz Baechi. Necessariamente in questo contesto si riprendono gli studi già svolti da Simona Benedetti, pubblicati nel 2019, in cui si è individuato il progettista dell'opera valtellinese nella persona di Gerolamo Quadrio, architetto del Duomo di Milano dal 1658 al 1679, anno della sua morte. Qui si sviluppano ulteriori analisi riferite all’attività del progettista milanese, che ha concepito la splendida spazialità architettonica tra le ultimissime opere della sua carriera. Vengono proposte nell’ultimo paragrafo puntuali analisi comparative tra le sue opere, individuando tra queste le più significative per l’attribuzione del progetto della Collegiata di San Giovanni Battista a Morbegno.The research represents the third chapter of the volume specifically dedicated to the history of the church of St. John the Baptist in Morbegno. Built between 1680 and 1714, this celebrated ‘Collegiata’ had been recently restored by the Isabel & Balz Baechi Foundation, which also supported a historical in-depth analysis. The paper consists of two paragraphs, in which we return to reflect on the attribution of the architectural design. Starting from the discoveries carried out by the Author in 2019 and already published, in which the designer of the Valtellina church was identified with Gerolamo Quadrio, chief architect of Milan’s Cathedral from 1658 to 1679, this new detailed work discusses the whole activity of the professional, who seemed to have conceived the architectural spatiality of St. John the Baptist at the very end of his career. By comparing his projects, it emerges the strictly existing relationship between his ‘modus operandi’ and the Morbegno church, confirming his participation in the invention and the following construction
Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation in the Treatment of Chronic Knee Pain: A Scoping Review
No full textBackground: Chronic knee pain in older adults is a prevalent condition that significantly impacts quality of life. Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) has emerged as a potential non-invasive treatment option. This scoping review aims to evaluate the efficacy of tDCS in treating chronic knee pain among older adults. Methods: A comprehensive search of peer-reviewed articles was conducted, focusing on randomized controlled trials and pilot studies. Studies were included if they met specific Population, Concept, and Context (PCC) criteria. The primary outcomes assessed were pain reduction and functional improvement. Results: Eleven studies met the inclusion criteria, with a total of 779 participants. However, the results varied across studies, with some showing minimal differences between active tDCS and sham treatments. Advanced neuroimaging techniques, such as functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), provided insights into the neuromodulatory effects of tDCS, revealing changes in brain activity related to pain perception. Conclusions: Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation (tDCS) presents a promising avenue for treating chronic knee pain in elderly individuals. However, the current body of research offers mixed results, emphasizing the need for more extensive and standardized studies. Future research should focus on understanding the underlying mechanisms, optimizing treatment protocols, and exploring the long-term effects and safety of tDCS
