Desativar o direito: um caminho a partir da obra de Giorgio Agamben
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Ciências Jurídicas, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Direito, Florianópolis, 2014O trabalho parte do problema de tentar pensar uma forma de resistência pelo Direito. A hipótese sustentada encontra amparo na noção de "desativar" o Direito, contida na obra de Giorgio Agamben. Neste sentido, o trabalho busca recompor os paradigmas jurídico-político e governamental dentro da obra do autor em questão, principalmente a partir dos livros "O poder soberano e a vida nua", "Estado de Exceção" e "O Reino e a Glória". Ao fim, a proposta de "desativar" o Direito e o conceito de inoperosidade defrontam-se com a máquina governamental agambeniana. Na conclusão, a filosofia do Direito é apresentada como alternativa para se pensar uma nova relação entre Direito e vida.Abstract: The work begins from the problem of trying to think of a way of resistance by Law. The hypothesis is supported by the notion of "deactivate" the law, contained in the work of Giorgio Agamben. In this sense, this dissertation seeks to reconstruct the legal-political and governmental paradigms within the work of the author in question, mostly from the books "The sovereign power and bare life", "State of Exception" and "The Kingdom and the Glory". At the end, the proposal to "deactivate" the Law and the concept of unindustriousness are confronted with Agamben's government machinery. In conclusion, the philosophy of law is presented as an alternative to think about a new relationship between law and life
Uncommon cause of ST-segment elevation in V1-V3: incremental value of cardiac magnetic resonance imaging
No full textAlthough ST-segment elevation in precordial leads is a
characteristic of anterior left ventricular infarction (LVI), it
may also be observed in patients with proximal right coronary
occlusion. An isolated right ventricular infarction
(RVI) accounts for only 3 % of all myocardial infarctions
(MI) [1]; in these cases, the ST-segment elevation in the
precordial leads V1–V3 also may occur in the absence of
inferior electrocardiographic changes [2], whereas the
combination of RVI with inferior LVI suppresses ST-segment
elevation in the precordial leads and yields an STsegment
elevation in leads DII, DIII, and aVF [3].
Although certain electrocardiographic features have been
suggested to help differentiate ST-segment elevation secondary
to isolated RVI from LVI [3], it may be impossible
to make a differential diagnosis on the basis of electrocardiography
alone because these features are not pathognomonic.
Furthermore, when a patient is admitted for
typical chest pain, slight ST-segment elevation in leads
V1–V3 and significant increase of cardiac troponin but
with normal coronary main vessels at the coronary angiography,
the diagnosis of a RVI is challenging; taking into
account the multiple causes of myocardial injury and
treatment consequences, there is great clinical need to
clarify the underlying reason for cardiac troponin release.
Although some studies report that echocardiography is a
valuable clinical tool for the evaluation of global RV
function [4], geometric assumptions in modeling the
complex RV shape restricts the ability of this technique in
accurate and precise quantification of RV function; furthermore,
RV function assessment can be difficult in
patients with poor acoustic window or when minor alterations
of RV function are present.
Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a comprehensive,
multifaceted view of the heart and can be
useful to characterize an infarct site and size accurately [5].
CMR in this particular setting can confirm the presence of
a minor RVI and aid to exclude other potential causes of
troponin rise with normal coronary main vessels at the coronary
angiography, such as embolic myocardial infarction or
myocarditis [6]. Acute MI treatment [7–10] and traditional
predictors of long-term mortality after acute MI are well
characterized [11–14] but with introduction of CMR, new
predictors of cardiovascular events are emerging [15, 16] and
the evaluation of RV function using CMR can improve risk
stratification and potentially refine patient management after
MI [17]. Moreover, the extent of myocardial scar characterized
by CMR is significantly associated with the occurrence
of spontaneous ventricular arrhythmias [18].
There have been few reports of anterior ST-segment
elevation caused by isolated RVI due to right ventricle
branch occlusion [19–21]. Occlusion of the conus branch
has been described essentially as a complication of coronary
angioplasty or during cardiac surgery [19–21]. Only
one report described a spontaneous RVI with culprit lesion
in the conus branch [22]. Assessment of isolated RVI due
to a critical stenosis of the conus branch by magnetic resonance
is never been reported
Pitfalls in arrhythmogenic left ventricular cardiomyopathy (ALVC). A review of the literature with considerations on a single case of sudden death in a juvenile athlete
No full textSudden cardiac death (SCD) in young athletes represents a challenging issue in forensic practice. The pathologist is frequently asked to establish the cause of death basing upon anatomical findings and to evaluate the role of the physician in preparticipation evaluation (PPE) and eligibility decision. Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is a leading cause of SCD during sport activity. However, in the last few years, forms with predominant or even isolated involvement of the left ventricle (LV) have progressively been correlated with a high risk of SCD. We present a case of SCD in an apparently healthy 19-year-old semi-professional football player. Annual PPEs performed in accordance with international and Italian recommendations, were unremarkable. At autopsy, a 1-cm area of subepicardial fibro-fatty replacement was observed at the postero-lateral wall of the LV. The finding was diagnostic of arrhythmogenic left ventricular cardiomyopathy (ALVC). A review of this rare pathology has been performed under a forensic perspective, focusing on the evaluation of the medico-legal responsibility of the physician in the PPE and on the morphological aspects of the disease. Current diagnostic criteria and recommendations result to be focused on the right ventricular pattern, with a risk of misdiagnosis for isolated LV forms. Furthermore, few detailed autopsies cases concerning ALVC have been published. There is a need, therefore, to study this rare disease with a careful and revised approach
Riscrivere Dante in un'altra lingua:Nel regno oscuro by Giorgio Pressburger
No full textReading from Nel regno oscuro by Giorgio Pressburger followed by a conversation with the author The Jewish, Budapest-born writer Giorgio Pressburger, one of the most interesting contemporary novelists in Europe, does not write in his native Hungarian but in adoptive Italian, and has often reflected about this linguistic choice. His most recent novel, Nel regno oscuro (2008), is inspired by Dante’s Inferno, and describes a journey to Hell which is both a meditation on XX-century history – and the Shoah in particular – and a psychoanalytical attempt, guided by Sigmund Freud, to come to terms with the loss of the author’s dead father and twin brother
"Il seme del piangere" of Giorgio Caproni. A linguistic and thematic analysis.
No full textopenL’analisi condotta all’interno di questo elaborato si propone di fornire un’analisi tematica e linguistica della raccolta “Il seme del piangere” di Giorgio Caproni, pubblicata per la prima volta da Garzanti nel 1959. Partendo da una panoramica storica, culturale e stilistica dell’ambiente e delle spinte che muovono l’autore nella composizione della sua poesia, si giungerà ad un’analisi puntuale della prima sezione dell’opera: i “Versi Livornesi” dedicati alla madre al fine di fornire una breve ma puntuale antologia commentata. La forza poetica degli anni ’60 è totalmente condensata nella mente e nella penna di Giorgio Caproni, lo scopo di questo studio è pertanto quello di mettere in luce quante più caratteristiche e particolarità possibili con il desiderio di omaggiare colui che, nella seconda metà del Novecento, donò alla poesia un momento di massima elevazione che, in seguito, è stato difficilmente raggiungibile.The analysis conducted within the paper aims to provide a linguistic and thematic overview of Giorgio Caproni's collection "Il seme del piangere," first published by Garzanti in 1959. Starting from a historical, cultural and stylistic framing of the environment and the drives that move the author in his poetic production, a punctual analysis of the first section of the work, the "Versi Livornesi," will be made in order to provide a brief but timely annotated anthology. The poetic force of the 1960s is totally condensed in the mind and pen of Giorgio Caproni, therefore the aim of this study is to highlight as many of his characteristics and particularities as possible with the desire to pay homage to the one who gave an elevation to the poetry of the second half of the twentieth century that has hardly been, subsequently, achieved

The conceptual question among sovereignty, biopolitics and law: a sensible point between Foucault and Agamben
No full textThe concept of biopolitics has its origin on the Michel Foucault works developped since 1975 to 1979. In this period, the author introduced the foundations for a new approach about the modern government, based in both crescent enpowerment on individuals and the control of populations. The theme has attracted the attentions of some critical political studies, with many practical uses. However, I believe there is not enough consolidation about biopolitics as a concept and a comprehensive theory of the new political mechanisms. This uncertainness is more evident when the very role of Law is questioned in a biopolitical model, due to the archaic nature that Foucault gives to it. So the aim of the paper is to identify the theorical comprehension of biopolitics in a contemporary author as Giorgio Agamben to demonstrate his oppositions and proximities from the original idea of Michel Foucault. I propose that Agamben has the same difficulties of Foucault to deal with legal theory and Law inside biopolitics. Nevertheless, after a critical review on the works of this two authors, my conclusion is that a settlement of the concepts of Law and biopolitics depends of the surpassing of the Foucaldian version of Law as sovereignity, a clear delimitation of a common core between the authors and their differences and the research and affirmation of the concept of Law in Agamben, more well-refined than Foucault's one
Giorgio Bassani saggista, verso “Il Giardino dei Finzi-Contini”
No full textIl percorso saggistico di Giorgio Bassani inizia quando il futuro autore de "Il giardino dei Finzi-Contini" è ancora uno studente universitario. La sua evoluzione fino agli Sessanta si rivela indispensabile alla formazione di quella idea di letteratura espressa nella maniera più compiuta all'interno del romanzo. Questo lavoro ricostruisce i singoli passaggi di questo percorso nel tentativo di osservare la maturazione dell'autore ferrarese nel continuo confronto con la letteratura coeva e non solo, fino alla "riflessione su se stesso" che occupa quasi per intero il lavoro saggistico dell'ultimo Bassani.
Giorgio Bassani's essayistic journey begins when the future author of "The Garden of the Finzi-Continis" was still a university student. His evolution up to the Sixties proves indispensable to the formation of that idea of literature expressed in the most complete way within the novel. This work reconstructs the individual steps of this path in an attempt to observe the maturation of the Ferrarese author in the continuous comparison with contemporary literature and beyond, up to the "reflection on himself" which occupies almost the entire essayistic work of the late Bassani
