    Lo scudo e le armi magiche della guerra

    No full text
    Lo Scudo di Achille deve la sua fama alla sequenza di immagini che il dio Efesto ha realizzato sulla sua superficie e l’imponente mole di studi che continua ad essere dedicata allo Scudo verte principalmente sul significato di quello straordinario repertorio figurativo. La ricerca qui presentata muove dalla convinzione che lo Scudo di Achille debba essere considerato in tutto il contesto e in tutta la sequenza della narrazione omerica e non solo per il ciclo di scene che Omero gli attribuisce. Con qualche sorpresa si può infatti constatare che uno scarso interesse ha destato nella storia degli studi la sequenza complessiva della vestizione delle armi di Achille che permette, invece, di individuare una serie importante di caratteristiche relative al funzionamento della panoplia dell’eroe e, più in generale, degli Achei “vestiti di bronzo”

    Thamyris, il cantore della politica cimoniana e il cratere di Polion a Ferrara

    No full text
    L’origine divina della musica si spiega nel quadro dei meccanismi propri di una cultura orale, da cui emergono anche figure di cantori definibili come “maestri di verità”. Il cratere firmato da Polion e proveniente dalla necropoli di Valle Trebba di Spina mette in scena un complesso sistema di immagini centrato sul potere della musica del cantore Thamyris ritenuto di origine tracia. In un continuo gioco di specchi, il cratere rivela come la musica di Thamyris sia fascinosa come il fuoco e il vino, ma deve essere costantemente riportata sotto il dominio di Apollo e delle Muse. La scelta del tema si connette probabilmente al clima che segue la pace di Nicia quando gli ideali cimoniani erano tornati di moda ad Atene ed anche il mondo etrusco si rivela sensibile a questa prospettiva

    Graphene on clean (0001) α-quartz: Numerical determination of a minimum energy path from metal to semiconductor

    No full text
    By means of DFT calculations, we have individuated a minimum-energy path connecting two energy minima of clean graphene on clean and relaxed oxygen-terminated (0001)’SiOinline image substrate in the inline image-quartz configuration: one characterized by mutual graphene–SiOinline image substrate distance of inline image2.8 Å and weak (van der Waals) bonds between them, the other by mutual distance of inline image1.4 Å, and presence of strong covalent C–O bonds. Our calculations show that the pathway connecting the two minima goes through a transition state and that the two minima are separated by a barrier of inline image2.25 eV. The covalent C–O bonds, which characterize the lower-energy configuration, induce significant corrugation of the graphene overlayer with consequent important modification of its electronic band structure and transport properties. In particular, we show that a small gap (inline imageeV) opens in the electronic band structure of the graphene/SiOinline image system, and the conical features around the Dirac points are lost. Correspondingly, at the graphene/SiOinline image interface, the diffuse inline image conjugation of the isolated graphene layer is modified by the appearance of near’inline image carbon atoms bound to the top oxygens of the SiOinline image. This fact also affects conductances and I–V characteristics which become different along different cell directions of the graphene overlayer. Our analysis suggests that the energy barrier between the van der Waals and the covalent minima could be overcome by applying a uniform pressure on the graphene overlayer due to the formation of chemical bonds which are important for the experimental integration of graphene on Si-compatible technology

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    No full text
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Quality of life in active surveillance and the associations with decision-making-a literature review

    No full text
    Several studies have been conducted on the quality of life (QoL) in men with low risk prostate cancer (PCa) who choose active surveillance (AS). While recent reviews have shown a lack of consistency among the available QoL-studies, a few key points have been identified, including decision-making (DM)- related issues and their potential effect on QoL. The importance of this theme has also been recently highlighted by the international task force of the European School of Oncology. However, to our knowledge, there are no studies that have specifically marshalled scientific knowledge on the association between DM and QoL among men with low-risk PCa undergoing AS. We performed a literature review to fill this gap, taking a systematic approach to retrieving and selecting articles that included both DM and QoL measures. Among the 272 articles retrieved, we selected nine observational, quantitative articles with both DM and QoL measures. The most considered DM aspects within these studies were decisional conflict and preference for the patient's role in the DM process, as well as health-related QoL aspects. The studies included 42 assessments of the relationship between an empirical measure of DM and an empirical measure of QoL. Among these assessments, 23 (55%) were both positive and significant. They mostly concerned the relationship between patient-related (decisional self-efficacy, decisional control and knowledge) and external (presence of social support, collaborative role within the DM process, and influence of different physicians) DM aspects, as well as the QoL after choice. The findings of these studies revealed key challenges to research and clinical practice related to DM and QoL in AS. These include adopting a person-centred perspective where clinicians, caregivers and their interactions are also included in evaluations and where the psychosocial existential experience of individuals within the DM and AS journey is considered. Much more attention needs to be paid to the DM process after diagnosis, as well as to all the other moments where patients may have to or want to review their decision. Healthcare professionals play a key role in enabling men to make informed decisions and to take care of their health and well-being during AS. There is still work that needs to be done in training healthcare professionals from different disciplines to work together in a model of shared DM and AS tailored to the needs of low-risk PCa patients and their family members
