The article title “The largest European forest carbon stocks are in the Dinaric Alps old-growth forests: comparison of direct measurements and standardised approaches” was incorrectly written as “The largest European forest carbon sinks are in the Dinaric Alps old-growth forests: comparison of direct measurements and standardised approaches”. The given and family names of the authors “Alessia Bono, Giorgio Alberti, Roberta Berretti1, Milic Curovic, Vojislav Dukic and Renzo Motta” were incorrectly structured as “Bono Alessia, Alberti Giorgio, Berretti Roberta, Curovic Milic, Dukic Vojislav and Motta Renzo”.

    Solitude as a positive experience: empowerment and agency

    No full text
    What makes solitude a positive experience? What distinguishes experiences of solitude from experiences of loneliness? We review some of the literature on the benefits of solitude, focusing on freedom, creativity, and spirituality. Then, we argue that the relationship between agent and environment is an important factor in determining the quality of experiences of solitude. In particular, we find that solitude may support a person’s sense of agency, expanding the possibilities for action that a person has, and creating the conditions for authenticity. We describe a phenomenology of solitude, based on a study that explores the nature of experiences of loneliness and solitude in a religious community. One finding is that solitude is characterised by presence, whereas loneliness is characterised by absence. Another finding is that solitude can contribute to a sense of empowerment that enables agents to pursue and achieve the goals they find valuable

    Chondrosarcoma of the larynx is a rare slow-growing malignant tumour with approximately 240 cases reported in the literature: the cricoid cartilage is the most commonly affected site (72-75%), in rare case was described of epiglottis (1-2%). We report a case of a chondrosarcoma of the epiglottis treated with CO2 laser epiglottectomy. The patient was referred with dysphonia, dysphagia and halitosis that started four months before. Indirect laryngoscopy revealed a large smooth mass with a roundish appearance and a pearly-grey colour, as big as a nut, apparently arising from the laryngeal surface of the epiglottis, causing obliteration of the piriform fossa. The definitive histopathological report showed microscopically, the tumour was low-grade (grade I) chondrosarcoma. A literature review regarding chondrosarcomas of the epiglottis is presented. The diagnosis, histology and treatment of these tumours are discussed. In particular we examine the controversy of conservative surgery vs. total laryngectomy. A conservative surgical approach is typically appropriate in light of this tumour's low-aggressive nature

    Eros anagogos e filosofia nell’esegesi tardo neoplatonica

    According to some Late Antique commentators we should take as the only purpose of each dialogue the doctrine of the whole work.Thus the Anonymous on Plato's philosophy rejects the opinion that the rhetoric is one of the themes of the Phaedrus. In the Hermias' Scholia in Phaedrum the dialogue as a whole deals with universal beauty which should be considered the only theme. Purpose at which this paper aims is to discuss Socrates' analogous eros. Socrates is seen as a doctor of the souls and a supreme lover of the wisdom and of the divine beauty
