    Distinction and Social Class in America and Europe: Pierre Bourdieu's Theory of Taste in Cross-Cultural Comparison

    No full text
    Vincenzo Mele, (University of Pisa, Italy) makes a cross-cultural comparison of the topic social class and distinction in the eu and usa, mainly discussing Pierre Bourdieu’s work. Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of distinction seems to be less influential in the social stratification studies in the United States than in Europe. The cause lays probably in some basic differences between the European and the American social structure, with special regard to what Bourdieu himself called the “sym- bolic power” of taste and consumption. This chapter reviews some of the most important concepts of Pierre Bourdieu (like habitus, symbolic space, cultural/ economic capital) and tries to put them at work in an ethnographic research based on participant observation in a NJ neighborhood

    CNSL: From Waste of the Cashew Agro-Industry to precious renewable resource for bio-based fine chemicals and new materials

    No full text
    The new millennium is marked by a growing search for renewable fuels and alternative raw materials from biomass in the petrochemicals industry. Thus, the preparation of fine chemicals and innovative materials from natural and renewable resources is an attractive topic for academic and industrial research especially when the purpose is to recycle huge amount of agro-industrial wastes. Cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL), well known by-product from the cashew industry rich in natural phenols, is widely produced in many countries (Africa, Brazil, India). Cardanol, obtained as the main product by vacuum distillation of the CNSL, has been used for the preparation of fine chemicals and hybrid materials [1, 2]. In the last years, different classes of compounds, such for example porphyrins, phthalocyanines, fullerenes cardanol based and others fine chemicals, have been synthesized from selected components of CNSL through environmentally sustainable strategies [1-5]. Moreover, innovative composites and hybrid cardanol based compounds have been used to design eco-friendly functional materials and processes [6-9]. References: 1) Mele G., Vasapollo G.

    Catalogo analitico

    No full text
    This essay investigates the liturgical-musical codes of the Cathedral, the St. Francis Convent and the Monastery of St. Clare in Oristano (XI-XVII centuries), on the basis of an international critical approach and a new interdisciplinary and descriptive model. The manuscripts considered form part of the only collection of liturgy books illuminated with neums in Sardinia. The majority of codes and the iconography – 18 manuscripts and numerous fragments, c.a. 3,400 parchments, 159 illuminations – were unpublished, with the only exception of a inventory with wrong datations (Lucca, 1911). All of the liturgical and musical formularies, and the biblical references have been traced and collated with the main repertoires. This study also shows cross references with a historical analysis and a critical Glossary by the author, published in the same volume and edited by the author himself (a CDRom is included). Among the codes is the corpus ACO P. III-VIII, a monumental Antiphonary in 6 volumes produced in the Tuscan-Emilian area in the XIII4/4 century. This is one of the most important sources of the Roman-Franciscan ritual after the reformations of Haymo of Faversham (1244) and Nicholas III (1277-1280). Hundreds of its facsimiles, in colour, have been considered. A bibliography of 274 references provides the primary research tools in the area of liturgical-musical code analysis

    Izbrano likovno delo: Hana Mele: “Ročka”, originalna jedkanica 30 x 40 cm, 2019

    V novem razstavnem prostoru pred vhodom v knjižnico bomo predstavljali študentska dela, ki pomenijo presežek pričakovanih študijskih rezultatov in so sveža po datumu svojega nastanka. Prva v vrsti predstvitev je Hana Mele: “Ročka”, jedkanica, 30 x 40 cm, 2019. Ob likovni umetnosti radi pozabimo, da ima likovni ustvarjalec na razpolago praviloma popolnoma drugačna sredstva od tistih, ki jih upodablja. S tega zornega kota pojmovanje “umetnosti kot posnemanja narave” ni najbolj posrečen izraz. Tako Hana Mele svojih izvrstnih tihožitij kavnih avtomatov ne izdeluje z uporabo npr. kroma, marveč s črtami in pikami oziroma na ravni materiala z oljno tiskarsko bravo in papirjem. Njena naloga je izumiti oblikovalne postopke, kako minimalna likovna sredstva uporabiti na načine, ki bodo čim bolj prepričljivo predstavili bleščeče površine upodobljenega objekta. V stari grafični tehniki stopenjske jedkanice je Hana Mele z vztrajnim raziskovanjem in pametnim načrtovanjem izdelala grafiko, ki s skopim izborom likovnih izrazil in bogato kombinatoriko uspe zgoščeno izraziti tako likovno kot doživljajsko polnost motiva

In particolare in questo articolo si descrive e si definisce la biomimetica come la scienza che permette di trasferire i prodotti e/o processi della Natura alla tecnologia umana con specifica attenzione alle promettenti recenti sperimentazioni progettuali in diverse parti del mondo

    Il Fumetto:una narrazione differente

    No full text
    Il fumetto è molto più di un semplice medium d'intrattenimento. È uno strumento potente e immediato di comunicazione, capace di colmare il divario tra medico e paziente. Un modo di comunicare argomenti complessi ad un ampio pubblico, con un occhio attento alla prevenzione e al benessere dei bambini. Unire il mondo delle scienze dure con quello dell'arte ha aperto la strada a una nuova modalità di narrazione della pediatria
