La Cronicha di Giorgio Dolfin (origini-1458) nel contesto culturale della Venezia del sec. XV
No full textA copy (XVI cent.) of a work entitled La Cronicha dela nobil cità de Venetia et dela sua provintia et destretto is preserved in the ms. It. VII, 794 (=8503), located at the Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana of Venice. The text documents the history of the city from its origins up to 1458. Its main author is Giorgio Dolfin (1396-1458), member of one of the most important Venetian aristocratic families; other contributors are Dolfin’s son Pietro, and Andrea and Nicolò Gussoni, the later owners of the volume containing the Cronicha. The chronicle remained unpublished up to the present day, although it represents a key source in the analysis of the work of Marin Sanudo the Younger (1466-1536), especially in regards to his digressions on number and inner workings of those Venetian judicial institutions assuring the good functioning of the Serenissima. Dolfin’s point of view is a profoundly religious one, aiming to represent Venetians as “veri et boni Christiani” and at the same time to celebrate their political and administrative independence. The events in the time of doge Francesco Foscari (1423-1457) are narrated in a truly passionate and affected manner, not only because the author and the Doge lived in the same period, but also because their two families were also related.La Cronicha dela nobil cità de Venetia et dela sua provintia et destretto (origini-1458) è conservata in una copia del XVI sec. nel manoscritto della Biblioteca Nazionale Marciana di Venezia It. VII, 794 (=8503) e racconta la storia di Venezia dalle origini al 1458. Il suo autore principale è Giorgio Dolfin (1396-1458), appartenente ad una delle maggiori famiglie del patriziato veneziano, ma contiene anche interventi del figlio Pietro e di Andrea e Nicolò Gussoni, successivi possessori del codice in cui è contenuta. La cronaca è rimasta inedita fino ai nostri giorni, pur costituendo una delle fonti principali per l’opera di Marin Sanudo il giovane (1466-1536), in particolare per la parte in cui si si dilunga ad elencare e spiegare le magistrature che riescono a garantire a Venezia il buon funzionamento dello Stato. Il punto di vista del Dolfin è profondamente religioso e mira a mettere in luce i Veneziani come “veri et boni Christiani” e la loro indipendenza politica ed amministrativa. Gli episodi relativi alle vicende del doge Francesco Foscari (1423-1457) sono raccontate in modo più accorato e commosso, sia perché contemporanee all’autore, sia perché i Dolfin erano legati da vincoli di parentela al doge
Un buon monitoraggio aumenta le rese in biogas.
No full textNell’ultimo quinquennio molti sono stati gli impianti di nuova costruzione ed avviamento: numeri alla mano sono quasi 1.000 gli impianti oggi operativi in Italia, per lo più autorizzati nel settore agricolo, soprattutto nell’area della pianura Padana. Ora che l’onda lunga delle nuove realizzazioni è scemata e sempre maggior coscienza viene acquisita da parte dei gestori degli impianti, è arrivato il tempo della piena “ottimizzazione” dell’investimento: ciò consiste nell’individuare una ricetta di alimentazione che sia in grado di fornire la massima resa energetica al minor costo della razione, previlegiando, laddove possibile, scarti e sottoprodotti.

The Lettere of Andrea Calmo: authorial artifices and historical reality
No full textopenNonostante l’edizione di Vittorio Rossi del 1888, la raccolta di "ingegnosi cheribizzi" e di "fantastiche fantasie" di Andrea Calmo è ancora avvolta da un certo mistero. L’autore, dissimulando la propria identità dietro alla “maschera” dell’umile pescatore veneziano, è stato in grado di offrire uno spaccato della cultura e della società nella Venezia cinquecentesca.
In particolare, è il quarto libro delle Lettere ad aver suscitato maggiore interesse tra gli studiosi ed i lettori: pubblicato nel 1566, a diversi anni di distanza dai primi tre, questo libro si distingue per il fatto che tutte le epistole sono indirizzate a delle donne immaginarie o realmente esistite.
In questa sede si propone, in primo luogo, uno studio della biografia del Calmo accompagnata da un’analisi del contesto storico-culturale della Venezia cinquecentesca; in secondo luogo, invece, viene proposto un commento di alcune lettere dell’ultimo libro dell’opera calmiana, che cerchi di far luce principalmente sull’aspetto linguistico e contenutistico del testo.Despite Vittorio Rossi's 1888 edition, Andrea Calmo's collection of "ingegnosi cheribizzi" and "fantastiche fantasie" is still shrouded in a certain mystery. The author, dissimulating his own identity behind the "mask" of the humble Venetian fisherman, was able to offer a cross-section of culture and society in sixteenth-century Venice.
In particular, it is the fourth book of the Letters that has aroused greater interest among scholars and readers: published in 1566, several years after the first three, this book stands out for the fact that all the epistles are addressed to women imaginary or actually existed.
Here we propose, first of all, a study of Calmo's biography accompanied by an analysis of the historical-cultural context of sixteenth-century Venice; secondly, however, a commentary on some letters from the last book of Calmo's work is proposed, which seeks to shed light mainly on the linguistic and content aspect of the text
Trusted Tales: Creating Authenticity in Literary Representations from Ex-Yugoslavia
No full textThis research deals with questions of authority and authenticity and how they are expressed, constructed, and appropriated within the Anglophone book market. It considers the body of literature written about ex-Yugoslavia since the 1990s Balkan conflicts by exiled writers from the region which has entered the international literary canon. Books’ routes from original publishers into English translation are discussed through practices of trust, one of the crucial social devices underpinning their exchange. Within these cross-cultural processes, the role of cultural brokers is crucial. Symbolic and cultural resources are specifically mobilised through their powerful author brands.
By exploring authenticity in the context of book publishing, I further look at how ideas and practices of community are employed and negotiated by writers and those who promote their books. My field is multi-sited and fluid, reflecting how different individual and national positions are enacted and performed through strategies ranging from unconscious dispositions to deliberate intentions. This research thus brings together ideas of the author as an authentic, representative voice together with exile as a position that grants them a new lease of relevancy in the post-socialist context.
Although ex-Yugoslav books occupy a ‘high end’ niche of the UK market, constrained by commercial as well as political, cultural, and institutional forces, in public discourse ideas of the ‘free market’ and ‘free speech’ are mobilised to produce various types of modernisation narratives. The (post)socialist production of literature is perceived as having to ‘evolve’ into a capitalist model: this would allow not only healthy competition and consumer choice but guarantee an individual writer ‘free speech’ as a basic human right. Therefore, the most general question this research raises is what kind of foreign literature gets translated into English, under what socio-cultural conditions and which politics of representation it serves within the project of world literature

Circular economy in the water and wastewater sector: Tariff impact and financial performance of SMARTechs
No full textThis paper proposes a financial evaluation of the investment in SMARTechs in wastewater companies. SMAR Techs are innovative technologies that enable companies to work toward the circular economy approach, thanks to allowing the development of by-products from wastewater. A simulation of the financial impact of the SMARTech introduction was conducted based on the Italian tariff system. It is performed assuming two different scenarios. These relate to a market’s presence (or absence) for the by-products resulting from the application of SMARTechs. The results show that investing in these technologies provides both financial and environmental benefits
