The role of educative thought in the life and work of Antonio Gramsci
No full textMany philosophers have propounded a vision of an improved society, what distinguishes Antonio Gramsci is his continuous effort to make it happen by understanding the process in order to put into practice. Gramsci's conviction about the importance of educative development came from both theory and experience. While there has been considerable examination of Gramsci's work in relation to the Prison Notebooks, this study will seek to address a lacuna in Gramsci scholarship. Using Gramsci's philological method, I analyse Gramsci's pre-prison activity; his pre-prison articles and letters, which, together with his letters from prison, formed part of his educative mission. This educative process was necessary, in order to construct a new party which would develop a collective will, collaboratively, with the masses.In this study therefore, I explore the contexts and formative experiences of the first part of his life together with the intellectual sources from which Gramsci developed his later theories, making central hitherto underemphasised connections between them which informed his writing and ideas. I intend to illustrate that Gramsci's underlying purpose in his writing, and political activity, was not only practical, on how to create a new socialist ruling class, but also educative in forming the mindset and values of his comrades. So that in addition to outlining his vision of a new order, he implicitly guided or explicitly explained the processes by which the necessary changes in social relations and moral climate could be made in order to achieve it. Each person had to engage with the values of the new order so that each could contribute to the construction of a new robust state. It was essential to build a hegemony at the most profound level, one which was dependent on collective understandings and a collective will

No full textEste trabalho se compõe de duas partes. Primeiramente, um estudo introdutório sobre o autor, Antonio Rosmini, sobre sua obra filosófica e, mais especificamente, sobre o livro Principi della scienza morale, que, na segunda parte, traduzimos para o português. Na introdução, expomos brevemente o sistema filosófico rosminiano e o contextualizamos no âmbito histórico-filosófico. Além disso, apresentamos o percurso por nós desenvolvido para obter uma tradução filologicamente correta do texto original, incluindo um breve glossário dos termos filosóficos empregados pelo autor.This work is composed of two parts. Firstly, there is an introductoty study on the author, Antonio Rosmini, on his phylosophical system and, more specifically, on the book Principi della scienza morale, which we have translated to Portuguese, in the second part. In the introduction, we expose briefly the rosminian phylosofical system and we place it in its historical-phylosofical context. Furthermore, we show the path weve followed to reach a phylologically correct translation from the original text, including a brief glossary of phylosophical terms employed by the author
Su una (presunta) lettera di Luigi Credaro ad Antonio Labriola
No full textIl saggio rappresenta un ulteriore approfondimento dei rapporti fra Antonio Labriola e Luigi Credaro. Il movente è rappresentato dal V e ultimo volume del Carteggio del filosofo cassinate (Napoli, Bibliopolis, 2006) e dall’interpretazione che il curatore, Stefano Miccolis (noto studioso labrioliano, purtroppo prematuramente scomparso nel 2009) espone nel testo di una minuta di Credaro, conservata nel Fondo intitolato al Valtellinese all’Archivio Centrale dello Stato (b. n. 1, fasc. 5, Corrispondenza privata 1902), nella quale lo stesso Credaro ringrazia il destinatario, non precisato, per il ruolo decisivo recitato nell’approvazione da parte del Consiglio della Facoltà di Filosofia e Lettere della “Sapienza” romana della sua richiesta di trasferimento dall’Università di Pavia sulla cattedra, già labrioliana, di Pedagogia (27 maggio 1902). L’individuazione del destinatario in Antonio Labriola, proposta da Miccolis, è contestata dall’autore, rinvenendo nella chiusura della minuta, nella quale Credaro esprime, con la sua “riconoscenza”, “la viva soddisfazione di diventare Collega di Lei, che mi fu maestro illuminato e affettuoso”, una chiara indicazione (confermata dal raffronto con la conclusione di L’insegnamento universitario della pedagogia, la prima Prelezione del valtellinese alla Regia Università di Roma, letta il 15 gennaio 1903) che la lettera era in realtà indirizzata a Giacomo Barzellotti (1844-1917), storico della filosofia di matrice neokantiana-spiritualistica, del quale Credaro aveva seguito da studente il corso di Filosofia morale all’Università di Pavia. Tale disamina critica è funzionale, per contrasto, al rafforzamento della tesi già in precedenza formulata dall’autore che esclude l’esistenza di significativi e approfonditi rapporti fra Labriola e Credaro antecedenti alla chiamata a Roma del Valtellinese – circostanza nella quale si sarebbe realizzata, in sostanza, una coincidenza e concordanza di interessi – e che l’avrebbero in qualche modo ascritta a una ben precisa, motivata volontà del Cassinate, magari da inserire in un ben preciso, complessivo suo “disegno” politico-accademico; ma il saggio non si limita a tale serrata pars destruens e insiste, nel prosieguo, con numerosi spunti, sull’ulteriore tesi dell’instaurarsi di un significativo rapporto ideale fra i due studiosi successivo all’approdo romano di Credaro, nel senso, per l’esattezza, di un influsso del Labriola herbartiano, e del suo concetto della libertà morale, sul Valtellinese, semplicemente adombrato nel contributo del 2006.In the 5th, last volume of Carteggio by Antonio Labriola (Napoli, Bibliopolis, 2006) the editor and author, Stefano Miccolis (well known Labriola researcher, untimely died in 2009)reproduce contains the text of a handwritten draft that he also delivered at the Central State Archive, (b. n. 1, file. 5, Corrispondenza privata 1902), in which Credaro thanks the recipient of the letter, unknown, for his efforts and for having ensured approval of Credaro's transfer application to La Sapienza, occurred in May 27, 2002). The recipient of this letter is, some argue, Antonio Labriola. The author objects to this interpretation and points out that at the end of the letter there is a clear indication (confirmed by comparing it to the conclusion of Teaching pedagogy at the University, the first Pre-lesson provided by Credaro at the Rome University, on January 15, 1903) that the letter was indeed addressed to Giacomo Barzellotti (1844-1917), a historian of philosophy with a Neokantian-Spiritualist approach, of which Credaro had already followed the Moral Philosophy course in Pavia. This analysis is important, with a contrast approach, to provide further support to the thesis the author had already expressed, that is that there had not been any deep and significant exchange between Credaro and Labriola before the former was transferred to Rome; however the essay does not stop with this hectic pars destruens but rather insists on the establishing of a significant intellectual and academic relationship (or rather, an influence of the Herbartian Labriola and of his concept of moral freedom, on Credaro) after the latter's move to Rome

The genetics of feto-placental development: a study of acid phosphatase locus 1 and adenosine deaminase polymorphisms in a consecutive series of newborn infants.
No full textAbstract Background Acid phosphatase locus 1 and adenosine deaminase locus 1 polymorphisms show cooperative effects on glucose metabolism and immunological functions. The recent observation of cooperation between the two systems on susceptibility to repeated spontaneous miscarriage prompted us to search for possible interactional effects between these genes and the correlation between birth weight and placental weight. Deviation from a balanced development of the feto-placental unit has been found to be associated with perinatal morbidity and mortality and with cardiovascular diseases in adulthood. Methods We examined 400 consecutive newborns from the Caucasian population of Rome. Birth weight, placental weight, and gestational length were registered. Acid phosphatase locus 1 and adenosine deaminase locus 1 phenotypes were determined by starch gel electrophoresis and correlation analysis was performed by SPSS programs. Informed verbal consent to participate in the study was obtained from the mothers. Results Highly significant differences in birth weight-placental weight correlations were observed among acid phosphatase locus 1 phenotypes (p = 0.005). The correlation between birth weight and placental weight was markedly elevated in subjects carrying acid phosphatase locus 1 phenotypes with medium-low F isoform concentration (A, CA and CB phenotypes) compared to those carrying acid phosphatase locus 1 phenotypes with medium-high F isoform concentration (BA and B phenotypes) (p = 0.002). Environmental and developmental variables were found to exert a significant effect on birth weight-placental weight correlation in subjects with medium-high F isoform concentrations, but only a marginal effect was observed in those with medium-low F isoform concentrations. The correlation between birth weight and placental weight is higher among carriers of the adenosine deaminase locus 1 allele*2, which is associated with low activity, than in homozygous adenosine deaminase locus 1 phenotype 1 carriers (p = 0.04). The two systems show a cooperative effect on the correlation between birth weight and placental weight: the highest value is observed in newborns carrying adenosine deaminase locus 1 allele*2 and acid phosphatase locus 1 phenotypes with medium-low F isoform concentration (p = 0.005). Conclusion These data suggest that zygotes with low adenosine deaminase locus 1 activity and low F activity may experience the most favourable intrauterine conditions for a balanced development of the feto-placental unit.</p
Smoking and human reproduction: the effect of adenylate kinase genetic polymorphism.
No full textWe investigated the possible influence of adenylate kinase genetic variability on the effect of maternal smoking on intrauterine selection and development. Adenylate kinase locus 1 belongs to a family of monophosphate kinases that plays an important role in the synthesis of nucleotides involved in several metabolic functions. Three hundred forty-five newborn consecutive infants from the Caucasian population of Rome and 360 consecutive infants from the Caucasian population of Penne were studied. The proportion of newborns carrying AK1*2 allele was analyzed in relation to smoking and maternal age. The effect of smoking on birth weight was also analyzed in relation to AK1 phenotype and maternal age. Statistical analyses have been performed according to SPSS programs. In offspring of women aged 28 years or less, the proportion of newborns carrying the AK1*2 allele is much higher in smoking than in nonsmoking mothers (13.2% versus 2.6%). Such association is lacking in mothers aged more than 28 years (6.5% versus 9.2%). The negative effects of smoke on birth weight is more marked in AK11 mothers than in AK1*2 carriers. The data suggest that zygotes carrying AK1*2 allele are relatively protected from the damaging effects of smoking, resulting in a relatively higher proportion of newborns carrying this allele among smoking mothers
