    No full text
    Il volume si occupa di fornire una prospettiva ampia sull'opera di Erasmo di Valvasone. I contributi raccolti si dividono i due tipologie: alcuni si occupano direttamente di singole opere dell'autore, altre hanno un approccio trasversale di tipo tematico

    «Io bramo dir d’un cavalier ardito». Su I quattro primi canti del Lancilotto di Erasmo di Valvasone (con accenni alla Thebaide)

    L'articolo, diviso in due parti, si occupa di un'opera minore di Erasmo di Valvasone, "I quattro primi canti del Lancilotto". Nella prima si occupa di inquadrare l'opera all'interno del genere dei poemi cavallereschi, ragionando sulla scelta, non consueta, dell'argomento bretone, e all'interno della produzione del Valvasone. La seconda parte presenta un'analisi diretta del poema

    A NEW ELECTROCHEMICAL ASSAY FOR THE DETERMINATION OF OH RADICAL SCAVENGER CAPACITY

    No full text
    The determination of OH radical scavenger capacity (ORSC) was performed using a new electrochemical sensor1 developed for the OH-radical detection that is based on the degradation of a polyphenol insulating film deposited on a glassy carbon electrode. In the presence of OH radicals the polyphenol film is attacked and that leaves the GC surface uncovered. The extent of degradation is estimated by cyclic voltammetry using the redox probe Ru(NH3)63+. In depencence on theantioxidant concentration, the time requested to induce the polymer degradation increases due to theprotective action of the compound (Figure 1). Such a time allows to estimate the ORSC. Five pure compounds, among the most common antioxidants, were classified as to their ORSC by generation of OH from H2O2 photolysis or Fenton reaction. The applicability of the electrochemical method was tested on eight real samples of fruit juices and the results compared to those obtained using traditional assays such as ORAC, ABTS and DPPH. ORAC was the methodology showing the best correlation with the developed electrochemical method, maybe since similar radical species are involved

    Vesuvio, Partenope e Bacco a confronto: analisi dei tre instant-book di Giovan Battista Bergazzano sull’eruzione del Vesuvio del 1631, in Il flagello e l’interprete. Quattro saggi su letteratura e disastri tra Cinque e Seicento, a cura di Antonio Perrone ed Edoardo Zorzan, Napoli, Editoriale Scientifica, 2024, pp. 53-81.

    L'articolo si occupa di tre brevi opere poetiche pubblicate a Napoli da Giovan Battista Bergazzano a brevissima distanza dall'eruzione del Vesuvio del dicembre 1631. Si concentra, dunque, sulla rappresentazione del disastro in tre opere scritte rapidamente dallo stesso autore, che affrontano lo stesso tema usando tonalità diverse, che vanno da quello tragico a quello comico di stampo carnevalesco

    Viaggiare verso il sangue: la rappresentazione del viaggio ne «La vittoria della Lega» di Tommaso Costo

    No full text
    L'articolo si occupa dell'elemento odeporico all'interno del poema lepantino di Tommaso Costo: La vittoria della lega (1582), mettendolo in relazione con le coeve teorie tassiane. La questione toccata nel caso di studio è la gestione dell'elemento odeporico nel poema eroico della fine del XVI secolo

    «Il sale della satira è il condimento della commedia». Elements in the European Mock-Heroic Poem

    Full text link
    Luca Ferraro L’articolo è incentrato sul rapporto tra eroicomico e satira. Gli autori passati in rassegna sono i principali del canone europeo: Tassoni, Boileau, Pope e Parini. L’obiettivo è stato quello di verificare quanto l’elemento satirico sia parte integrante del genere inventato da Tassoni. Nella seconda parte del testo si è cercato di dimostrare che la satira diventa la forma del comico predominante nei poemi eroicomici successivi alla Secchia rapita. Analizzandone in ordine cronologico le opere più rappresentative, si è voluto fare una riflessione sul genere e su come mutano gli elementi che lo caratterizzano nel corso dei suoi quasi due secoli di vita.  The focus of this paper is the relationship between mock-heroic and satire. The analysis will deal with the most important satirical and mock-heroic authors in Europe : Tassoni, Boileau, Pope and Parini. The purpose is to prove how the satirical element is an essential part of the genre invented by Tassoni. In the second part of the paper we will try to demonstrate that the satire becomes the main mode of the comic in mock-heroic poems after the Secchia rapita. By analyzing chronologically the most representative works, our article proposes a reflection about the genre and the evolution of its characteristics during almost two centuries

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    Full text link
    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    Full text link
    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis
