Perniola egizio. Del buon uso dell'enigma in filosofia
L’articolo esplora il ruolo strutturale della riflessione sull’estetica dell'Antico Egitto, così come delle metafore e delle similitudini legate all’Egitto, all’interno dell’opera di Mario Perniola. L’autore sostiene che la concezione dell’Egitto di Perniola si pone come un’alternativa aperta rispetto al modo tradizionale, platonico, cristiano ed hegeliano, di trattare la cultura egizia come una sorta di preistoria della civiltà occidentale. Al contrario, l’arte egizia è considerata da Perniola come il punto di partenza di una corrente permanente all’interno dell’estetica occidentale, quindi come un aspetto dell’estetica dell'arte contemporanea stessa e della società (momento egiziano). L’articolo analizza quindi la caratterizzazione di una serie di fenomeni estetici contemporanei (il neo-antico, il sex appeal dell'inorganico, ecc.) visti attraverso le lenti della loro dimensione "egizia" e mediante il significato filosofico dell’enigma.Perniola, an Egyptian. The good use of the enigma in philosophy This article explores the structural role of the reflection on the aesthetics of Ancient Egypt, as well as of Egypt-related metaphors and similes, within the work of Mario Perniola. The author argues that Perniola’s conception of Egypt stands as an open alternative to the traditional Platonic, Christian and Hegelian way of dealing with it as a kind of pre-history of Western civilization. On the contrary, Egyptian art is considered by Perniola as the starting point of a permanent current within Western aesthetics, therefore as an aspect of the aesthetics of contemporary art itself and society (Egyptian moment). The article thus analyzes Perniola’s characterization of an array of contemporary aesthetic phenomena (the neo-ancient, the sex appeal of the inorganic, etc.) through the lenses of their “Egyptian” dimension and philosophical meaning of the enigma
Hormonal replacement therapy and evaluation of intrauterine pathology in postmenopausal women: a ten-year study.
Background: To evaluate the role of hormonal replacement therapy (HRT) in determining: a) abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB); b) increased endometrial thickness at transvaginal sonography (TVS); c) the correct indication for outpatient hysteroscopy (HS) and biopsy in diagnosing intrauterine pathology. Methods: Between April 1991 and April 2001 a group of 3,400 postmenopausal women was referred to the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology of Rome University "La Sapienza"; 16.7% of them had received HRT. 587 out of the 3,400 women were recruited for a comparative study, including four groups. To assess statistical significance of HRT in determining AUB, and/or endometrial thickness related to malignant disease the chi-square test was used; p < 0.05 was considered significant. Histology was considered the true result (control). Results: An increase in the endometrial thickness occurred significantly more often in women on HRT (p < 0.03); as well as the percentage of AUB (p < 0.0001). No difference in the incidence of endometrial adenocarcinoma was reported between the HRT and the non HRT groups. Conclusions: In postmenopausal women using HRT we can confirm that a higher incidence of signs (AUB, endometrial thickness ≥ 5 mm) does not coincide with a higher incidence of malignant pathology. The data obtained from the recruited patients was arranged and evaluated by the most suitable methods for screening endometrial adenocarcinoma. According to our experience, we believe a cut-off point of 8 mm to be significant (p < 0.001) to perform an hysteroscopy and biopsy except for asymptomatic patients on HRT
