About the new IconologyThe Geology of Images: Looking at Mantegna's Work
No full textIn questo saggio sulla New Iconology l'autore affronta il ruolo che lo stile assume nell'opera di Mantegna, discutendo questo alla luce della geologia e dell'archeologia. L'interesse per l'opera d'arte come oggetto e come immagine è al centro della ricerca teorica; l'approccio artistico intreccia l'antropologia, e i Visual Studies, attraverso quel principio di azione che Alfred Gell chiama agency. L'Autore in questo saggio discute come Mantegna nelle sue opere d'arte produce agency e come attraverso lo stile e la materialitaà dell'opera esprime la propria intenzionalità
all'interno del contesto artistico e culturale del suo tempo.In this essay about the New Iconology, the Author takes in account the role that style plays in Mantegna's work, discussing this in the light of geology and archeology. Interest in the artwork as object (artfact) and as image is at the centre of contemporary theoretical research; the artistic approach intersecting the anthropological one and that of visual studies. The Author in this essay discuss how Mantegna produces agency; then how his work of art, analized stylistically and materiality, espress his own intentionality within the social and cultural context in his tim

Cura e consenso informato. Tavola Rotonda

Drell-Yan lepton-pair production: QT resummation at N3LL accuracy and fiducial cross sections at N3LO
No full textWe present high-accuracy QCD predictions for the transverse-momentum (qT) distribution and fiducial cross sections of Drell-Yan lepton pairs produced in hadronic collisions. At small values of qT we resum to all perturbative orders the logarithmically enhanced contributions up to next-to-next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic (N3LL) accuracy, including all the next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order (N3LO) [i.e., O(αS3)] terms. Our resummed calculation has been implemented in the public numerical program DYTurbo, which produces fast and precise predictions with the full dependence on the final-state lepton kinematics. We consistently combine our resummed results with the known O(αS3) fixed-order predictions at large values of qT thus also obtaining full N3LO accuracy for fiducial cross sections. We show numerical results at LHC energies discussing the reduction of the perturbative uncertainty with respect to lower-order calculations
Manipulation of responsibility in non-clinical subjects: Are obsessive behaviors elicited by responsibility?
No full textAn exaggerated sense of responsibility is currently considered as the ground for the obsessive–compulsive disorder. Obsessive-like behaviors, such as hesitations and checks, may be induced in non-clinical subjects by increasing perceived responsibility (i.e., perceived personal influence on negative outcomes). In line with Salkovskis’ proposal [The cognitive approach to anxiety: threat beliefs, safety-seeking behavior, and the special case of health anxiety and obsessions, in: P.M. Salkovskis (Ed.), Frontiers of Cognitive Therapy, Guilford, New York], we tested the hypothesis that reduced coping abilities (i.e., an exaggerated expectation of failure) are another effectual factor contributing to obsessive-like behaviors. We examined 47 normal volunteers in a visuo-spatial memory task, and manipulated their perceived personal influence and expectation of failure by giving differential instructions and feedback about their performance. Increase of perceived personal influence induced slowness, hesitations and checks without enhancing performance. Expectation of failure exacerbated obsessive-like behaviors, again without affecting performance. These results confirm the role of responsibility in obsessive-like behavior and indicate that reduced coping abilities may contribute to worsen dysfunctional strategies
Using Mixed Incentives to Document Xi’an Guanzhong

Mantegna e le “delizie” estensi, in Mantegna e Roma
No full textIl rapporto di Mantegna con la corte di Ferrara viene riesaminato, puntando su un confronto tra gli affreschi della Camera degli Sposi e quelli che decoravano le “delizie” estensi: in particolare è il ciclo decorativo del Salone dei Mesi in Palazzo Schifanoia ad emergere in una nuova prospettiva critica, in particolare per gli elementi di aggiornatissima cultura archeologica che lo caratterizzano, da intendersi verosimilmente come una risposta ferrarese alle sollecitazioni culturali che provenivano dalla vicina corte gonzaghesca
