“but I am also influenced by no such thing”-The Radical Pietist and Theological Author Johanna Eleonora Petersen
No full textJohanna Eleonora von und zu Merlau, verheiratete Petersen, von jeher tief gläubig, veränderte die religiöse Welt des 17. Jahrhunderts. Sie bekannte sich zur Bewegung des Pietismus und vertrat radikale Ansichten, nicht nur im privaten Kreis, sondern als anerkannte und heftig kritisierte theologische Autorin. Ihrem Werk ist eine Studie gewidmet, in der neue Forschungsergebnisse vorgestellt und Leben und Werk dieser bedeutenden Autorin in zeitgenössische Diskurse eingebunden werden.The deeply devout Johanna Eleonora Petersen, whose maiden name was „von und zu Merlau,” changed the religious world of the seventeenth century. She avowed herself to Pietism and held radical views, not only in private but also as an acknowledged and sharply criticized theological author. This study attends to her work. It presents new research results and weaves the life and work of this important author into contemporary discourses
La notion de défectuosité du produit dans les jurisprudences des pays européens
No full textThis work analyses the notion of defective product originally developed by US Courts, then ambiguously defined by the European directive n. 374 of 1985 and differently interpreted and applied by the respective domestic Courts. In particular, some European jurisdictions apply the risk / utility test introduced by the US Courts for design defects cases, although this test is not mentioned by the European Directive. The author, having highlighted the inconsistences of the risk / utility test, proposes an alternative model of classification of defective products according to the elements actually used by judges in order to allocate the liability, as emerging from the text of their decisions. This classification leads to held the manufacturer strictly liable not only for manufacturing defects, but also for those design defects which he was aware of (as in some cases of defective vaccine).Cette étude examine la notion de défectuosité du produit initialement élaborée par les Cours américaines, définie de manière ambigüe par le législateur européen avec la directive n° 374 de 1985, puis différemment interprétée et appliquée par les Cours respectives des pays membres. Notamment certains systèmes juridiques européens appliquent le risk/ utility test élaboré par les Cours américaines pour les cas de défaut de conception du produit, bien que ce test ne soit pas mentionné par la directive européenne. L’auteur, après avoir mis en évidence les incongruences du risk/ utility test, propose un modèle alternatif de classification des cas de produits défectueux sur la base des critères d’imputation de la responsabilité qui sont concrètement utilisés par les juges et tels qu’imagés dans les textes de leurs décisions. Cette reconstruction amène à imputer au fabricant une responsabilité objective non seulement pour les cas de défaut de production, mais aussi pour les cas de défaut de conception dont il était averti (tel que certain cas de vaccin défectueux).Rajneri Karageorgevitch Eleonora.

No full textSe il riciclo di ciò che non è più necessario è il nuovo mantra di una contemporaneità che all’indomani della crisi si è scoperta a dover immaginare uno spazio di sopravvivenza per il progetto, la non-necessarietà del riciclo sembra oggi un nonsense, o una nostalgica formula ad uso di paladini del sempre-nuovo, o un assioma strumentale imbracciato da interessi particolari. Ma una sperimentazione su corpi ancora vivi della città consente forse di guardare al riciclo come strumento per verificare lo stallo del progetto, o quantomeno per misurarne il raggio d’azione.
Il caso del Quartiere INA-Casa Forte Quezzi a Genova, magnifica sorte di una modernità che ha esaurito la sua spinta propulsiva, è in questo senso emblematico. Oggetto ancora perfettamente funzionale e funzionante, il Biscione sembra prestarsi solo ad attente manutenzioni, o a misurati aggiornamenti in grado di protrarne la sopravvivenza. Farne oggetto di riciclo può essere dunque azione non necessaria, superflua se non inutile. Oppure, può diventare occasione per riscoprire forze immaginifiche, dimostrando che Recycle non è una pratica dettata da contingenze o urgenze, ma la capacità di guardare oltre ciò che non c’è più e di vedere quello che non c’è ancora

No full textHebb's idea of a cell assembly as the fundamental unit of neural information processing has dominated neuroscience like no other theoretical concept within the past 60 years. A range of different physiological phenomena, from precisely synchronized spiking to broadly simultaneous rate increases, has been subsumed under this term. Yet progress in this area is hampered by the lack of statistical tools that would enable to extract assemblies with arbitrary constellations of time lags, and at multiple temporal scales, partly due to the severe computational burden. Here we present such a unifying methodological and conceptual framework which detects assembly structure at many different time scales, levels of precision, and with arbitrary internal organization. Applying this methodology to multiple single unit recordings from various cortical areas, we find that there is no universal cortical coding scheme, but that assembly structure and precision significantly depends on the brain area recorded and ongoing task demands

Tra quadro e cornice
No full textThe author presents a reconstruction of the experience she had in Pontedera when she saw some performances of the Workcenter of Jerzy Grotowski and Thomas Richards and took part to some works of the group. The text is composed by two parts: a descriptive and a theoretical one. In the first part, that she called “paintings”, the author tries to present his memory of what she saw and of what happened. Two plays are described, namely L’heure fugitive and The Underground, from the Focused Research Team in Art as a Vehicle, directed by Thomas Richards. After that, there is a description of open rehearsal of Thomas Richards’ group, in which the actors did singing exercises. The last activity was instead a singing session with Mario Biagini and his team, where the author and her colleagues participated actively. In the theoretical part, the author exposes her reflections concerning performances and other experiences, by focusing in particular on their meaning as well as on their major points of interest
Production of large Bose-Einstein condensates in a magnetic-shield-compatible hybrid trap
No full textWe describe the production of large Na-23 Bose-Einstein condensates in a hybrid trap characterized by a weak magnetic field quadrupole and a tightly focused infrared beam. The use of small magnetic field gradients makes the trap compatible with the state-of-the-art magnetic shields. By taking advantage of the deep cooling and high efficiency of gray molasses to improve the initial trap loading conditions, we produce condensates composed of as many as 7 million atoms in less than 30 s
