Filosofia, psicologia e letteratura in Francia (1896-1897). L'io dei morenti di Victor Egger e La psicologia del tubercoloso di Paul Xilliez nel sanatorio di Leysin. Traduzioni e note di Riccardo Roni. Con un saggio di Luciano Mecacci
Questo volume – in cui si fa ampio uso di materiali inediti – è dedicato alla ricostruzione storica e teorica dei rapporti che intercorrono tra due figure chiave dell’ambiente accademico della Francia di fine Ottocento: Victor Egger (1848-1909) e il suo giovane allievo, Don Paul Xilliez (1868-1896). Il nucleo che viene preso in esame sulla scorta dei saggi introduttivi di Luciano Mecacci e di Riccardo Roni, riguarda le esperienze di premorte, ovvero quella «visione panoramica del morente» sulla quale si concentrano due fortunati articoli di Egger sull’Io dei morenti all’incrocio tra filosofia, psicologia e letteratura, pubblicati nel 1896 sulla Revue philosophique di Ribot. Entrambi i testi di Egger vengono presentati per la prima volta in traduzione italiana, seguiti dall’articolo postumo di Xilliez del 1897 sulla Psicologia del tubercoloso, dalla cui analisi emergono notevoli coincidenze con quanto Thomas Mann nei decenni successivi metterà a frutto nella Montagna magica. Ne fuoriesce uno studio storiografico e teorico che offre un contributo originale alla storia della filosofia e della psicologia, alla filosofia morale, fino ad aprire nuove linee di ricerca anche per la letteratura
Stillbirths at Term : Case Control Study of Risk Factors, Growth Status and Placental Histology
Objective: To investigate the proportion of stillbirths at term associated with abnormal growth using customized birth weight percentiles and to compare histological placental findings both in underweight stillborn fetuses and in live births. Methods: A retrospective case-control study of 150 singleton term stillbirths. The livebirth control groups included 586 cases of low-risk pregnancies and 153 late fetal growth restriction fetuses. Stillbirths and livebirths from low-risk pregnancies were classified using customized standards for fetal weight at birth, as adequate for gestational age (AGA; 10-90th percentile), small (SGA; 90th percentile). Placental characteristics in stillbirth were compared with those from livebirths using four categories: inflammation, disruptive, obstructive and adaptive lesions. Results: There was a higher rate of SGA (26% vs 6%, p<0.001) and LGA fetuses (10.6% vs 5.6%, p<0.05) in the stillbirth group. Among stillbirth fetuses, almost half of the SGA were very low birthweight (≤3°percentile) (12% vs 0.3%, p<0.001). The disruptive (7.3% vs 0.17%; p<0.001), obstructive (54.6% vs 7.5%;p<0.001) and adaptive (46.6% vs 35.8%;p<0.001) findings were significantly more common in than in livebirth-low risk. Placental characteristics of AGA and SGA stillbirth were compared with those of AGA and FGR livebirth. In stillbirths-SGA we found a higher number of disruptive (12.8% vs 0%; p<0.001), obstructive (58.9% vs 23.5%;p<0.001) and adaptive lesions (56.4% vs 49%; p 0.47) than in livebirth-FGR. Conclusion: The assessment of fetal weight with customized curves can identify fetuses which have not reached their genetically determined growth potential and are therefore at risk for adverse outcomes. Placental evaluation in stillbirths can reveal chronic histological signs that might be useful to clinical assessment, especially in underweight fetuses. © 2016 Mecacci et al.

Luciano Mecacci, Lev Vygotskij. Sviluppo, educazione e patologia della mente
il testo di Luciano Mecacci "Lev Vygotskij. Sviluppo, educazione e patologia della mente" è dedicato all’opera e al pensiero del grande psicologo russo. Il libro fornisce un’esposizione sintetica e chiara del pensiero teorico e del lavoro empirico di Lev Semënovič Vygotskij (1896-1934), analizzando la teoria storico-culturale nei suoi aspetti principali
Editoriale – Sulla narrazione
This issue focuses on narration. In the first group of essays (Voltolini, Baldi, Ribatti, Pieri) narration is meant mostly as literary form exploring especially the fiction theme. In the second part many authors (Desideri, Mecacci, Portera, Magini) define narration as an open problem using different point of views (literature, cinema, design, art)

The First Commentary on L. S. Vygotsky’s Papers at the II All-Russian Congress of Psychoneurology in Petrograd (January 1924)
At the Second All-Russian Congress on Psychoneurology in Petrograd (January 1924), Vygotsky delivered three papers. The first paper (“Methodology of Reflexological and Psychological Research”), was printed separately, but the text of the other two reports (“How Psychology Should Be Taught Now” and “Results of a Questionnaire on the Moods of Students of the Graduating Classes of the Gomel Schools in 1923”) has not survived. A brief account of these two reports, which appeared in the magazine Krasnaya Nov’ in 1924, is reprinted here for the first time. The author was the revolutionary M.I. Ginzburg (1877-1940), a researcher at the Moscow Psychological Institute in the mid-1920s. He wrote under the pseudonym G. Dayan. Ginzburg-Dayan was severely criticised in 1935 on charges of Trotskyism.</p
