    Moretto and Romanino: religious painting in Brescia 1510-1550: identity in the shadow of La serenissima

    Full text link
    This thesis examines several works of religious content produced by the Brescian painters Gerolamo Romano, 11 Romanino (148487-15'59) and Alessandro Bonvicino, 11 Moretto (1498-1554), produced for patrons and locations in Brescia between 15 10 and 1550. This enquiry has drawn on little used historical material in order to integrate the discussion of the images into a wider social and historical context. The key aim of this study is to establish how Romanino and Moretto defined a Brescian identity in art. This will be argued by using two different approaches in order to examine the existence, and the manifestations, of such a local identity One approach taken in this study is to look at groups of corporate patrons and to consider the works executed for them in terms of similarities of content. Chapters 2 and 3 in turn consider the works executed by Romanino and Moretto for the Congregations of Santa Giustina of Padua, and of San Giorgio in Alga. The second approach adopted for the purposes of examination of strategies for the establishment of a Brescian visual identity employed in this study is to focus on representations of the Eucharist. It will be shown that Moretto developed a new visual motif of the 'Eucharistic Christ' in response to the growing popularity of the Forty Hours devotion in Brescia

Toulfé (13°53’43”N 01°52’25”W), 300 m, Lorum, Burkina Faso. Diagnosis. Africa species; Male pronotal anterior angles surface sloping laterally and usually with a dark spot (Figs. 57); female vertex with horns (Fig. 73). Description. Holotype ♂ (Fig. 9). Measurements. Length 9.5 mm, width 5.5 mm. Head (Figs. 27–28). Anterior clypeal edge emarginate on median fifth in dorsal view; clypeofrontal carina nearly straight and extending to clypeal edge; vertex convex medially, surface with scabrous punctures. Horns long, divergent in frontal view, gradually tapering from base to apex, posterointernal edge unmodified basally, internal surface with numerous coarse granules. Genal edge slightly upturned and arcuate on anterior third, forming a broad angle with clypeal edge. Pronotum (Fig. 57). Surface with granulate punctures extending slightly beyond posterior half, with a few scattered simple punctures on posterior portion of disc, larger punctures absent posterolaterally, with distinct, minute punctures throughout. Anteromedian tubercle atrophied, forming a simply convex projection in lateral view, surface of tubercles covered with rather regular and fine squamiform granules; median longitudinal sulcus absent; surface behind the eyes with a small and shallow oval depression, surface of anterior angles irregularly sloping laterally; anterior half of lateral edge slightly sinuous in dorsal and lateral view; posterior angles simply arcuate in dorsal view. Anterior hypomeral ridge nearly straight posteriorly and abruptly arcuate anteriorly with anterior most portion crenulate, anterior hypomeral depression surface light in color. Elytra (Fig. 9). Interval 2 and 4 lacking fine granules from base to apex. Legs. Protibial apicointernal tooth enlarged, with dorsal ridge interrupted before apex. Aedeagus (Fig. 121). Parameres with dorsal and ventral edges slightly diverging toward apex in lateral view. Internal sac sclerites (Figs. 141–143). Axial sclerite strongly sclerotized, abruptly bent ventrally on apical third. Subaxial sclerite, extending straight past apex of right lateral fold apical portion, with villi on apical half. Frontolateral peripheral sclerite basoventral apophysis moderately developed; a single medioventral carinae present; right lateral fold short, produced into a rather large everted and open apically conical process with extremely irregular apical edge; left lateral lobe absent; subapicodorsal lobe membranous, narrow, not reaching anterior edge, apex set on left side in dorsal view; apical lobe elongate and round apically, directed obliquely on left side, apical villi regular in shape; subapicoventral lobe short not reaching apical edge of apical lobe, oriented obliquely and in line with ventrally folded left edge of apical lobe. Variation. Measurements (103 ♂♂, 111 ♀♀). Length: male 6.5–11.0 mm (9.5 ± 0.8 mm), female 7.5–11.0 mm (9.4 ± 0.7 mm). Female lectotype.

Sahelicus is a Latin adjective pertaining to the distribution of this species. Natural history. A mostly Sahelian species associated with grassland and wooded and acacia steppes habitats and grassland enclave within degraded sudanese vegetation and along dried sandy riverbeds, on deep sandy soils. Individuals are common at light traps and also collected from, donkey, cow, and human dung. Some individuals collected in pitfall traps baited with rumen content, recently killed toads and monitor lizards.Published as part of Génier, François & Moretto, Philippe, 2017, Digitonthophagus Balthasar, 1959: taxonomy, systematics, and morphological phylogeny of the genus revealing an African species complex (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae: Scarabaeinae), pp. 1-110 in Zootaxa 4248 (1) on pages 21-24, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.43944

    Il testo approfondisce la posizione di S. Loftus e J. Higgs in merito alla possibilità di considerare l'approfondimento delle competenze linguistiche, da parte dei profesionisti della sanità, come elemento imprescindibile in vista di una comprensione autentica tra medico e paziente. Il fil rouge dal punto di vista teorretico è costituito dall'evoluzione del pensiero di Wittgenstein ed in particolare della sua elaborazione di significato come uso e non più soltanto come rappresentazione

    International audienceThe status of the Scarabaeus (Scarabaeus) species belonging to the gangeticus group is studied. Ateuchus (Heliocantharus) profanus Boheman, 1857, Scarabaeus nepos Fairmaire, 1884, and Scarabaeus laevigatus Kolbe, 1887, are retained as good species and their status restored. A lectotype is designed for Scarabaeus pacatus Péringuey 1901, which is synonymized with Ateuchus (Heliocantharus) profanus Boheman, 1857. The holotype by monotypy of Ateuchus gangeticus Castelnau, 1840, est identifié. A lectotype is designed for Ateuchus isidis Castelnau, 1840. To fix the taxonomy, a neotype is designed for Ateuchus goryi Castelnau, 1840, for which the type is considered lost. Scarabaeus pseudogangeticus Moretto n. sp., Scarabaeus osiridis Moretto n. sp., Scarabaeus montreuili Moretto n. sp. and et Scarabaeus montreuili meridionalis Moretto n. ssp. are described. The morphological characters used to separate the species are specified, described and illustrated. An identification key and distribution maps are produced. The holotype by monotypy of Ateuchus jalof Castelnau, 1840, is identified; this species is removed from the S. gangeticus species group and transferred in S. transcaspicus species group.Le statut des espèces de Scarabaeus (Scarabaeus) du groupe gangeticus est étudié. Ateuchus (Heliocantharus) profanus Boheman, 1857, Scarabaeus nepos Fairmaire, 1884, et Scarabaeus laevigatus Kolbe, 1887, sont retenus comme bonnes espèces et leur statut restauré. Un lectotype est désigné pour Scarabaeus pacatus Péringuey 1901, qui est mis en synonymie avec Ateuchus (Heliocantharus) profanus Boheman, 1857. L’holotype par monotypie d’Ateuchus gangeticus Castelnau, 1840, est identifié. Un lectotype est désigné pour Ateuchus isidis Castelnau, 1840. Pour fixer la taxonomie, un néotype est désignés pour Ateuchus goryi Castelnau, 1840, dont le type est considéré comme perdu. Scarabaeus pseudogangeticus Moretto n. sp., Scarabaeus osiridis Moretto n. sp., Scarabaeus montreuili Moretto n. sp. et Scarabaeus montreuili meridionalis Moretto n. ssp. sont décrits. Les caractères morphologiques utilisés pour séparer les espèces sont précisés, décrits et illustrés. Une clé d’identification et des cartes de répartition sont produites. L’holotype par monotypie d’Ateuchus jalof Castelnau, 1840, est identifié ; cette espèce est écartée du groupe de S. gangeticus et transférée dans le groupe de Scarabaeus transcaspicus Stolfa, 1938
