Videogames, Violence and Aggressive Behavior: an Educational Proposal
Get PDFThis contribution, articulated in three parts, proposes an articulated interpretation of the relationship between violence and videogames. The debate, nevertheless current, is in fact rich in positions diametrically opposite and often accompanied by superficial and not much argued visions which make parents, teachers and media suspicious. The dia-logue and communication with youngsters and with the industry is connoted by a com-municative distance which is growing more and more.
The first part of the contribution will offer an overview taken by different disciplines ( from the ethology of Lorenz to the philosophy and sociology of Morin) to describe the destructive and transformative components of the aggressiveness. Moreover, it will be talked the aggressive component in relation with the cultural dimension of the game in general with its “play” component. In the second part it will be explored the complexity of the combination "Violence / Videogame" by trying to propose a critical and analytical vision, that can open new spaces for questions and interpretations.
Finally, in the third part, it will be presented a media-literacy experience carried on in a secondary school in Bologna about the use of a non violent videogame (Minecraft) for developing creativity and critical thinking within pre-adolescents
Selected letters of Alessandra Strozzi
No full textThe letters of Alessandra Strozzi provide a vivid and spirited portrayal of life in fifteenth-century Florence. Among the richest autobiographical materials to survive from the Italian Renaissance, the letters reveal a woman who fought stubbornly to preserve her family's property and position in adverse circumstances, and who was an acute observer of Medicean society. Her letters speak of political and social status, of the concept of honor, and of the harshness of life, including the plague and the loss of children. They are also a guide to Alessandra's inner life over a period of twenty-three years, revealing the pain and sorrow, and, more rarely, the joy and triumph, with which she responded to the events unfolding around her.This edition includes translations, in full or in part, of 35 of the 73 extant letters. The selections carry forward the story of Alessandra's life and illustrate the range of attitudes, concerns, and activities which were characteristic of their author
Challenging the author: Gavin Douglas's Eneados
No full textGavin Douglas’s Eneados, a translation into the “Scottis” tongue of Virgil’s Aeneid, completed in 1513 and first published in London in 1553, presents, as well as the translation of the additional thirteenth book by Maphaeus Vegius, original prologues and marginal notes to the text, rubrics and articulate conclusive material. The present paper analyses this complex paratext as evidence of Douglas’s almost philological attention to the original and his preoccupation with a faithful reproduction; it is also suggested that the models for his organization of the commentary might be both medieval (i.e., manuscripts such as Petrarch’s Virgilius Ambrosianus) and early modern, as in the case of editions of classical works: the most apt example being Jodocus Badius Ascensius’ edition of the Aeneid, printed in 1501. The Eneados thus stands on the threshold between manuscript and print, and might have indicated new possibilities of use of the printing medium in Scotland, and of the value of the translation of a classical text, had history not intervened with the Scottish defeat at Flodden Fields in 1513, which put a temporary stop both to the circulation of the Eneados and to the development of Scottish printing
Relationship management as a value creation process: a dynamic perspective
No full textThe first part of the chapter deepens the concept of relation that has been developed from a mere economic exchange to a relational linkage conveying psychological and social implications. The second part questions what is the value that a company can get by the relationship management and it suggests that this value lays into relational outcomes. The third part of the chapter presents the communication strategies regarding the boundary spanning function of public relations that allows the development of the relational quality.
Finally, the chapter introduces the relationships management model that highlights the dynamic evolution of organizational relationships at business-to-business network level and at company-stakeholder level. The chapter concludes with some remarks and further research questions
Nicetas Nicaenus, De azymis
No full textThe RAP online repertorium offers the first comprehensive catalogue of polemical literature related to the schism between the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches from the 9th to the 16th century and can be described as an ideal continuation of the *Clavis Patrum*.
Each entry identifies the work (often unpublished or newly discovered in manuscript catalogs), lists its various titles (since medieval texts often lack stable titles), provides incipit and explicit (with possible variations), and examines the manuscript tradition and foliation (by reviewing catalogs or manuscripts, verifying dates, folios, etc.). It also includes relevant bibliography (critical editions and studies), identifies the author (using prosopographical studies, dictionaries, repertories, sigillography, etc.), and provides essential biographical details. Each work is classified by literary genre (e.g., treatise, dialogue), the corresponding Byzantine term, and the main polemical themes (e.g., Filioque, Azymes, Purgatory), and is assigned a unique RAP identification number.

Ultrastructural and biochemical analysis of in vitro odontoblast diff erentiation
Get PDFThe purpose of this study was to develop an in vitro model of odontoblast differentiation and dentin formation which allows to deeply and better study the process of odontoblast differentiation and protein matrix deposition and mineralization. Human dental pulp cells were obtained from extracted molar teeth of donors under informed consent. Cells were induced to odontoblast differentiation for 7, 14, 21 and 28 days by adding in the cell medium dexamethasone, β-glicerophosphate, ascorbic acid and TGF-β1. Alizarin red staining, electron microscopy, western blotting were carried out to demonstrate the odontoblast differentiation process, extracellular matrix deposition and mineralization. Alizarin red staining results showed a gradual calcium deposition during the treatment, reaching the highest signal at 28 days of stimulation. Electron microscopy demonstrated the deposition of fibrillar structures in the extracellular matrix, connected with extracellular matrix proteins. Western blotting analysis showed the expression of collagen type I and dentin matrix protein 1, markers for the odontoblast phenotype. The in vitro odontoblast differentiation model described if an highly repetitive model and it represents a potential and promising tool to explore the extracellular matrix deposition and mineralization process in physiological and pathological conditions
