Dossier Algeri, URBANISTICA PVS
No full textIl Dossier traccia una sintesi critica dell'evoluzione urbana di Algeri dall'indipendenza ad oggi. Nel saggio di G. Cinà sono evidenziate le componenti del mosaico urbano della città nei primi anni '60, i progetti e le aspettative di quegli anni e loro progressivo infrangersi contro le difficoltà di una modernizzazione rimasta incompiuta. In esso è svolto inoltre un approfondimento sulle possibili linee di azione per una graduale ripresa dell'azione pubblica e del controllo delle dinamiche urbane, oggi in balia dei venti del neoliberismo. Altri temi, svolti dagli altri autori del Dossier (E. Berezovska –Azzag, S. R. Boumedine, J. J. Deluz, Y. Ouageni, D. Lesbet, A. Chaouati), integrano il saggio iniziale nell’obiettivo di descrivere le condizioni e le prospettive di sviluppo urbano di Algeri
De l’écriture textuelle à l’hypertexte. Enjeux épistémologiques de l’environnement numérique
No full textIn the 1970s, under the indirect influence of a technological development considered likely to influence the field of communication and data
management, intellectual speculation was directed towards the critical deconstruction of the notions of author and literary work. While in the current
context we observe that the digital is declining at all levels of knowledge,
producing an epistemological instability, this article proposes to reread the
poststructuralist experience of the generation that in the 1970s worked
around the notion of the death of the author and of textual writing: on the
one hand to reveal the extraordinary modernity of this thought, on the other
hand to question an epistemology that can describe our time in its relation
to the digital.Dans les années 1970, sous l’influence indirecte d’un développement
technologique considéré comme étant susceptible d’influencer le domaine de
la communication et de la gestion des données, une spéculation intellectuelle
s’oriente à la déconstruction critique des notions d’auteur et d’œuvre littéraire. Alors que, dans le contexte actuel, nous constatons que le numérique
se décline à tous les niveaux de la connaissance, produisant une instabilité
épistémologique, cet article propose de relire l’expérience poststructuraliste
de la génération qui dans les années 1970 a travaillé autour de la notion de
la mort de l’auteur et de l’écriture textuelle : d’une part pour révéler l’extraordinaire modernité de cette pensée, d’autre part pour questionner une
épistémologie qui puisse décrire notre époque dans son rapport au digital

Different adaptive responses by rat striatal dopamine synthetic and receptor mechanisms after repeated treatment with d-amphetamine, methylphenidate and nomifensine
No full textThe effect of repeated administration of d-amphetamine (AMP), methylphenidate (MP) and nomifensine (NOM) on dopamine receptors, striatal adenylate cyclase and tyrosine hydroxylase was studied. No one of the three stimulating drugs changed the receptor number or their affinity to haloperidol specific binding. Adenylate cyclase from rats treated with NOM showed a subsensitivity to the stimulation by dopamine. AMP treatment decreased the activity of striatal tyrosine hydroxylase. MP was ineffective in all the parameters studied. These results show that drugs believed to belong to the same class of stimulants are different in their effect on the CNS adaptive mechanisms
Bio-etologia di Tribolium confusum: ruolo dei composti volatili emessi in presenza di competizione intra- ed inter-specifica
No full textL’architettura del palazzo da Fancelli a Giulio Romano
No full textIl saggio affronta, alla luce di fonti d'archivio anche inedite, la storia architettonica del Palazzo Ducale di Mantova e degli artefici che vi lavorarono, dalla metà del XV secolo sino a quella del secolo sucessivo, cioè alla fine della feconda stagione cinquecentesca sovrintesa da Giulio Romano. Sulla scorta delle relazioni compilate in occasione dei restauri compiuti soprattutto nella prima metà del XX secolo, propone una lettura disincantata dei diversi appartamenti e fra questi anche di quelli 'vecchi' e 'nuovi' voluti da Isabella d'Este, frutto, nell'assetto attuale, di una vera e propria reinvenzione novecentesca generalmente dimenticata dagli storici dell'arte e dell'architettura
Biofeedback, virtual reality and mobile phones in the treatment of generalized anxiety disorder (gad): A phase-2 controlled clinical trial
No full textGeneralized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a psychiatric disease characterized by long-lasting anxiety that is not focused on a specific object or situation. Within the treatment of GAD, physical (relaxation and controlled breathing), behavioral (visualization and controlled exposure) and cognitive control strategies (challenging negative thoughts) represent a key part of the treatment, even if they difficult to learn. To overcome this limitation, the EU-funded INTREPID research project (IST-2002-507464) proposes improvement of exiting treatment for GAD through the use of a biofeedback-enhanced virtual reality (VR) system, used both for relaxation and controlled exposure. Furthermore, this experience is strengthened by the use of a mobile phone that allows patients to perform the virtual experience even in an outpatient setting. This approach was tested in a Phase II randomized controlled trial (NCT00602212), including three groups of four patients each, resulting in a total of 12 patients. The first group consisted of the VR and Mobile group (VRMB) including biofeedback, the second of the VR and Mobile group (VRM) without biofeedback, and the third the waiting list (WL) group. This study provides initial evidence for better efficacy of treatment for the VRMB group. Subjects belonging to this group reported a higher decrease in some of the anxiety psychometric questionnaires after the treatment than both VRM and WL groups, even if the VRM group, too, reported some significant improvements at the end of therapy. Moreover, qualitative reports concerning outpatient use of mobile phones suggests that it can solve a classical problem of VR therapies-the impossibility of using a VR system in the real life context of the patien
Sur l’omission du ne dans Les Rougon-Macquart : aspects linguistiques et stylistiques
No full textA quantitative and qualitative analysis of the omission of the ne from
the verbal negation in the novels that compose the Rougon-Macquart cycle reveals
that this syntactic feature occurs late (though only in the case of certain characters)
and intermittently. The first two points can be explained by assuming
that the omission of ne follows the social trajectory of the characters, according to
the theory of “dégénérescence”. The intermittent distribution of one-term negation
calls for another explanation. We note that this phenomenon is not systematically
added to other marks of popular oral language. This leads us to explore the
logic of linguistic mimetics adopted by the author. The omission of ne contributes
to the stylisation of the spoken language in accordance with the principles of naturalism:
Zola observes popular speech through the lens of social determinism
and wishes to integrate it into his literary narrative as an authentic document.
However, the intermittence of the phenomenon reveals that the representation of
popular French is integrated into literary writing to represent the deviation from
the norm rather than the real linguistic identity of any particular milieu
