Contro la prospettiva: monocentrismo individuale della visione
No full textGiancarlo De Carlo, in the introduction to the volume
Il Palazzo di Federico da Montefeltro, 1985, edited
by Maria Luisa Polichetti, speaks of Luciano Laurana and
Francesco di Giorgio Martini as the “spirits” of the Palazzo.
We cannot help but imagine De Carlo himself as a presence
for the city, always present and alive through his project.
In L’architettura della partecipazione he exposes how often
the representation of architecture does not include the
people who live in it; a custom whose origins the author
traces back to the “individual monocentric vision” of the
Renaissance perspective.
Based on this consideration eight internationally
renowned photographers, Urbino ISIA teachers, tell the
story of De Carlo’s work in Urbino. These images tell the
story of De Carlo in Urbino today. What interests us is their
potential as a lesson for the present. Paola Binante,
Luca Capuano, Mario Cresci, Paola De Pietri, Jason Fulford,
Stefano Graziani, Armin Linke, Giovanna Silva, explore
and recount the nature of this lesson through photography.
Alongside their multiple perspectives is the performative
work, carried out by the graphic designer Patrick Lacey and
the artist Ben Cain, with the ISIA students and the narrations
developed by the students of the Iuav University of Venice,
together with Armin Linke, using photographic material
from the archives.
Besides curators’ texts, this book includes contributions
by Roberta Valtorta, with respect to the long-term
relationship between architecture and photography,
by Mirko Zardini, on De Carlo’s relationship with the city
of Urbino, and by Sara Marini, on the architect’s textual
production
Thronos. Historical Grammar of Furniture in Mycenaean and Beyond
No full textIl volume nasce da una serie di seminari e ricerche svolte presso il Dipartimento di Fiologia Classica e Italianistica dell'Università di Bologna sul tema del lessico miceneo degli oggetti di arredamento, coordinati dall Dott.ssa R. Pierini. A questo nucleo originario, si sono aggiunti contributi di vari studiosi, italiani e stranieri, sulla rappresentazione e sulla funzione degli oggetti di arredamento in vari testi e in vari generi della letteratura greca antica, inclusa la traduzione greca dell'Antico Testamento
A chair for singing: the imagery of the aoidos from Mycenaean to Classical Age
No full textSurvey of iconographic and literary representations of the ‘seated aoidos’ from Mycenaean times
down to the classical age. Behind this image it is possible to recognise several implications in the
different periods, contexts and media of artistic representation. A trait common to the majority of
the occurrences seems to be the emphasis on the performer himself, on his exceptional persona
and on his technical ability (or even bravura), by which he is able to charm the public (this second
aspect becomes particularly prominent in the second half of the 5th century BCE)
Synthetic Strategies to Serine-Proline Chimeras: An Overview
No full textThis review focuses on synthetic strategies developed to obtain serine-proline chimeras. The conformational properties of proline, combined with functional groups typical of aminoacid side chains, represent an interesting approach to stabilize peptide secondary structures such as -turns. Different chemical pathways to synthesize 3-, 4-, and 5-hydroxyprolines, considered proline chimeras of aminoacid serine, will be presented and discussed

Termodinamica del processo di discriminazione e ricognizione chirale mediante modellistica molecolare - HPLC dinamica e studi di stereodinamica
No full textChirality in the Absence of Rigid Stereogenic Elements: Steric and Electronic Effects on the Configurational Stability of C3 Symmetric Residual Tris-Aryl Phosphanes.
No full textResidual stereoisomers result whenever closed subsets of appropriately substituted interconverting isomers (the residual stereoisomers) are generated from a full set of stereoisomers under the operation of a favored stereomerization mechanism. In the case of the three-bladed propellers, differentiation of the edges of the blades and strict correlation in the motion of the rings are the prerequisites for the existence of residual stereoisomers. In these systems, the two-ring flip mechanism is the lowest energy process. It does not interconvert all possible conformational stereoisomers generated by helicity and the three-blade-hub rotors. In the case of C3 symmetric systems, two noninterconverting subgroups (the residual stereoisomers) are generated, each one constituted of quickly interconverting diastereoisomers. A series of tris-aryl phosphanes, structurally designed for existing as residual enantiomers or diastereoisomers, bearing substituents differing in size and electronic properties on the aryl rings, were synthesized and characterized. The configurational stability of residual phosphanes, evaluated by dynamic (1) H- and (31) P-NMR analysis and by dynamic enantioselective high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), was found 10 kcal mol(-1) lower than that shown by the corresponding phosphane-oxides. In accordance with the calculations, an unexpectedly low barrier for phosphorus pyramidal inversion was invoked as responsible for the scarce configurational stability of the residual tris-arylphosphanes
