No full textWho is the author of the 1876 Stefano manuscript?
No full textFor over one hundred years the Stefano manuscript was a private document in the possession of the Baccich family and descendants. It told a story of the 1875 Stefano shipwreck as narrated by the shipwreck survivor and the founding family patriarch Miho Baccich. In these circumstances the question of authorship of the manuscript was immaterial and did not arise as an issue. However, with the publication of the manuscript the author‟s name, or names, need to be formally attributed to it. It turns out that this is not such a clear-cut matter.
As we shall see, all informed sources attributed the authorship, and the ownership, of the manuscript to Miho Baccich. But the manuscript itself was written by Canon Stjepan Skurla – a priest from Miho‟s hometown of Dubrovnik. The question then arises: should Skurla also be considered as an author of the manuscript, or, even as the sole author (as some would have it)

Introduzione [a I cartolari del notaio Stefano di Corrado di Lavagna]
No full textSaggio introduttivo all’edizione dei frammenti dei protocolli del notaio Stefano di Corrado di Lavagna nel quale viene fatta l’analisi codicologica dei frammenti e si ricostruisce la biografia del notaio. Vengono inoltre esaminate la tipologia dei documenti, le tecniche redazionali del notaio e l’organizzazione burocratica della Chiesa genovese nella seconda metà del secolo XIII.
Introduction essay to the edition of the fragments of the protocols of the notary Stefano di Corrado of Lavagna in which the analysis of the codex fragments and reconstructs the biography of the notary is made by the author. She also examined the types of documents, the technical drafting of the notary and the bureaucratic organization of the Church of Genoa in the second half of the thirteenth century
From Lausanne to Luxembourg: the CJEU’s Seraing Judgment and the Boundaries of Sports Arbitration Under EU Law
No full textIn this expert analysis, Professor Stefano Bastianon dissects the CJEU’s landmark Seraing ruling (Case C-600/23), which reshapes the contours of sports arbitration under EU law. With particular focus on judicial review and EU public policy, the author explores how the Court balances the autonomy of arbitral mechanisms like CAS with the imperative of effective judicial protection — a judgment that could have far-reaching implications for the future of dispute resolution in sport
Recensione di Robert G. La France, Bachiacca: artist of the Medici court, Firenze, Olschki, 2008
No full textABSTRACT ITALIANO
Francesco Ubertini detto il Bachiacca ebbe scarsa fortuna critica ma questo volume di Robert G. La France colma una lacuna grave nella critica d’arte con una solida monografia in lingua inglese che prende in esame tutte le opere e i documenti di questo pittore. Stefano Colonna giudica positivamente il libro, pubblicato da Leo Olschki, limitandosi a sottolineare che alcune opere, inserite come autografe dall’autore, presentino differenti qualità.
ENGLISH ABSTRACT
Francesco Ubertini called Bachiacca has had little critical fortune, but this book by Robert G. La France fills a serious lacuna in art criticism with a solid English monograph that examines all the existing works and documents. Stefano Colonna welcomes the book published by Leo Olschki and simply points out that some of the works included by the author as autograph have a different quality
Use of 3D T2-Weighted MR Sequences for the Assessment of Neurovascular Bundle Changes after Nerve-Sparing Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy (RRP): A Potential Diagnostic Tool for Optimal Management of Erectile Dysfunction after RRP
No full textErectile dysfunction (ED) is one of the complications after radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP), and recovery of erectile function is quantitatively related to the preservation of the neurovascular bundles (NVBs). The aim of our study was to assess, in patients submitted to a nerve-sparing RRP, the capability of a dedicated 3D isotropic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) T2-weighted sequence in the depiction of postsurgical changes of NVB formation. Fifty-three consecutive patients underwent a bilateral nerve-sparing RRP. Two postoperative magnetic resonance (MR) examinations and International Index of Erectile Function Five-Item (IIEF-5) questionnaire were carried out at 6 and 12 months. Morphological imaging of the postprostatectomy fossa was performed by first acquiring turbo spin echo T2-weighted sequences in the axial and coronal planes and then with 3D T2-weighted isotropic sequence on axial plane. Image findings were scored using a relative 5-point classification (0 = normal; I = mild; II = mild to moderate; III = moderate; IV = severe alterations) and correlated with postoperative IIEF-5 score questionnaire. The degree of association between the alteration score values obtained by postoperative MR morphologic evaluation for MR sequence and IIEF-5 score. Image interpretation was performed by two radiologists, that scoring MR alterations by the use of axial and multiplanar reconstruction 3D T2 isotropic sequence. The radiologists placed 43.30% of patients in class 0 (23/53 normal or quite normal), 32.00% in class I (17/53 mild), 11.40% in class II (6/53 mild to moderate), 7.50% in class III (4/53 moderate), and 5.70% in class IV (3/53 severe). In all cases, the correlation and regression analyses between the 3D T2 isotropic sequence and IIEF-5 score, resulted in higher coefficient values (rho = 0.45; P = 0.0010). The MRI protocol and NVB change classification score proposed in this study would represent an additional tool in the postoperative phase of those patients with ED.
