Some Perspectives on Leibniz's Nominalism and Its Sources
No full textThe paper explores the presence of a Nominalist inspiration underlying Leibniz's logic and metaphysics, from the early appreciation of Ockhamist tradition to the logico-ontological reflections of the mature years. In particular, the paper assumes as its leading thread Leibniz's confrontation with Hobbes and the problem of the semantics of abstract terms
Mouvance and the medieval author: re-editing Ancrene Wisse
No full textThe paper discusses the theoretical and practical problems of editing the early thirteenth-century guide for anchoresses, Ancrene Wisse, which (in Paul Zumthor's phrase) is an 'oeuvre mouvante', modified repeatedly from an early stage by its author and others
A note on rank 2 diagonals
No full text[EN] We solve two questions regarding spaces with a (Gδ)-diagonal of rank 2. One is a question of Basile, Bella and Ridderbos about weakly Lindelöf spaces with a Gδ-diagonal of rank 2 and the other is a question of Arhangel’skii and Bella asking whether every space with a diagonal of rank 2 and cellularity continuum has cardinality at most continuum.Bella, A.; Spadaro, S.

How to be a woman. Models of masochism and sacrifice in young adult fiction
No full textBuffy, Bella, Veronica, Katniss, Clary, Tris and Saba : For two decades post-feminist heroines have faced life-threatening trials as part of their progress to womanhood. In this chapter I consider how young adult popular fictions operate as forms of pedagogy for young women by offering them particular models of maturity and womanhood. I explore the recurrence and reformulation of a persistent pattern of behaviour in which heroines engage in risky and/or masochistic behaviours for which they are emotionally rewarded.. These recurrences function as a form of vicarious experiential learning in which readers and viewers learn that emotional gratification and adult status are conferred through self-harm and self-sacrifice. Popular culture is not a monolithic form and young adult fictions are no exception. An analysis of fictional examples of this behaviour pattern challenges the idea that heroines today are empowered agents as a result of the legacy of feminism. At the same time, the analysis belies any notion that fictions are universally hegemonic and oppressive – fictions can and do disrupt and interrogate this pattern of emotional masochism. Scholars of public pedagogy have explored the complexities, contradictions and subtleties of the pedagogical process. Sandlin O’Malley and Burdick (2011) in their review of public pedagogy literature acknowledge that some scholarship has demonstrated how “the teaching and learning inherent within daily life can be both oppressive and resistant” (p. 144). Jubas and Knutson (2012) also see public pedagogy as an arena where contradictions and tensions are in play. They argue that we can see “New examples of dialectic or tensions … between the authority of the producer and the consumer; between traditional structures which ground identities and help people make sense of cultural texts, and personal agency which frees people to choose and invent identities and meanings” (p. 86). This analysis aims to contribute to understandings of the complexities of public pedagogy by showing how fictions aimed primarily at young women both resist and accommodate patriarchy
Rosmarino
No full textIl genere Rosmarinus appartiene alla famiglia delle Lamiaceae. Diverse sono le interpretazioni sull’origine del nome del rosmarino. Per molto tempo si è pensato che il nome generico derivasse dal latino “ros” (rugiada) e “marinus” (marino), da cui “rugiada di mare”. Attualmente, gli etimologi sono concordi nel sostenere che la parola rosmarino provenga dal greco “rhos” (arbusto) e “myrinos” (aromatico), da cui “arbusto aromatico”. Questa seconda spiegazione sembra la più convincente in quanto rileva il carattere tipicamente aromatico della specie.
Per l’Italia, il Pignatti riporta la specie Rosmarinus officinalis L., che si trova allo stato spontaneo nelle isole e lungo le coste della penisola, con esclusione di quelle del medio ed alto Adriatico. Diverse sono le varietà botaniche appartenenti alla specie R. officinalis che si differenziano in base al portamento della pianta, alle dimensioni e al colore delle foglie, al colore dei fiori.
Nella Flora Europaea, il Tutin descrive due specie R. officinalis L. e R. eriolaxis, che si differenziano per la presenza di soli peli stellati il primo e di peli stellati e ghiandolari il secondo.
Il rosmarino è un specie tipica del bacino del Mediterraneo, è comune nel nord dell’Africa e sud-est dell’Asia. Si ritrova in ambienti con altitudine variabile da 0 a 800 m s.l.m. e fino a 1.500 m s.l.m. solo nelle regioni mediterranee. È una specie termofila, richiede un clima temperato o temperato-caldo con temperature comprese tra 9 °C e 28 °C

No full textSea Change: Nursing in Bella Bella, 1901-1925
No full textIn the early 1900s, the Heiltsuk village of Bella Bella (Wáglísla) in Northwest British Columbia boasted a new Methodist mission hospital and a small Training School for Nurses. This study explores the largely unknown history of missionary nursing in Bella Bella between 1901 and 1925, built around the private documents of Doris Nichols, who began her nursing training there in 1921. This study critically examines the experiences of early nurse missionaries—students and graduates —who lived, learned, worked, and worshiped as a part of the Methodist medical mission in Bella Bella and to the surrounding area. As a social history, this study reflects on those experiences through the lenses of gender, age, class, race, region, and religion. This exploration concludes that Doris Nichols’ rare experience was interconnected with—and an extension of—the profound changes that occurred for the Heiltsuk, the Methodist missions, nursing education, and Doris herself.Nurses; Methodist medical mission; Heiltsuk; Bella Bella; Wáglísla; Rivers Inlet; Northwest Coast; Chilliwack, British Columbia; Indigenous healthcare histories; Training Schools for Nurses; R.W.
