Iacopo da Benevento, giudice e poeta alla corte di Federico II: “status quaestionis”
No full textL’intervento si concentra sui problemi identificativi e cronologici riguardanti la figura storica e letteraria di Iacopo da Benevento, giudice e poeta vissuto in epoca federiciana, autore della commedia elegiaca «De uxore cerdonis» e dei «Carmina moralia», troppo spesso confuso con un altro Iacopo da Benevento, a lui contemporaneo, un frate domenicano autore del «Viridarium consolationis» e di altri scritti di carattere omiletico ed esegetico.The intervention focuses on the identification and chronological problems concerning the historical and literary figure of Iacopo from Benevento, judge and poet who lived in the Frederick era, author of the elegiac comedy «De uxore cerdonis» and of the «Carmina moralia», too often confused with another Iacopo from Benevento, a contemporary of him, a Dominican friar, author of the «Viridarium consolationis» and other writings of a homiletic and exegetical nature

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Full text linkThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
Bladder Cancer Sample Handling and Reporting: Pathologist's Point of View
Full text linkThe aim of this narrative review is to provide adequate information on handling and reporting of the bladder cancer samples to improve the closely collaboration between pathologists and urologists. The main (but not exclusive) research tool used was PubMed and 87 references were selected and quoted in the text. We have considered handling of biopsies, transurethral resection (TUR), and cystectomy specimens to summarize the different methods of sampling and the related issues. Moreover, we considered and discussed the main prognostic factors, such as histological tumor type, grade, and stage of bladder cancer, that should be described in the pathological report. In addition, critical issues encountered in the interpretation of histological samples were discussed
Variations on the Author
Full text link“Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship
Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis
Full text linkWe 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
L’avvocato del diavolo: Taddeo da Sessa e Federico II
No full textI giuristi-burocrati che affiancavano Federico II, imperatore e re di Sicilia, più che intellettuali puri erano tecnici specializzati che conoscevano le costituzioni regie e le consuetudini cittadine. Nella Porta di Capua campeggiavano due busti identificati con Pier della Vigna, il cui rapporto con Federico II ebbe un drammatico e lacerante epilogo, e Taddeo da Sessa che supportò l’imperatore a costo della vita. La propaganda contro Federico, nata ai tempi di Gregorio IX, proseguì sotto Innocenzo IV che nel 1245, al Concilio di Lione, lo condannò in contumacia, lo depose e lo privò di ogni titolo con le accuse di eresia, spergiuro e sacrilegio, nonostante l’abile e argomentata difesa di Taddeo. Due anni dopo i Francescani spronarono i cittadini a difendere Parma, assediata dall’imperatore, spiegando che era l’Anticristo preconizzato da Daniele, e i Parmensi gli inflissero una cocente sconfitta. Mentre guidava l’esercito e custodiva il tesoro imperiale, Taddeo fu catturato e ucciso dai Parmensi che non volevano ascoltare i suoi «mellitos et super oleum mollitos sermones». Evidentemente le parole di Taddeo turbavano tanto gli avversari di Federico che erano incapaci di controbbattere. Dopo la sua morte, l’imperatore perse il migliore e più fidato avvocato e l’idea che fosse l’Anticristo si diffuse ancor di più, condizionando pesantemente gli ultimi anni del suo regno.The jurist-bureaucrats who supported Frederick II, emperor and king of Sicily, were more specialized technicians who knew the royal constitutions and the city customs than pure intellectuals. In the Porta di Capua there were two busts identified with Pier della Vigna, whose relationship with Frederick II had a dramatic and lacerating epilogue, and Taddeo da Sessa who supported the emperor at the cost of his life. The propaganda against Frederick, born at the time of Gregory IX, continued under Innocent IV who in 1245, at the Council of Lyon, condemned him in absentia, deposed him and stripped him of all titles with the accusations of heresy, perjury and sacrilege, despite the skilled and well-argued defense of Taddeo. Two years later the Franciscans urged the citizens to defend Parma, besieged by the emperor, explaining that he was the Antichrist foretold by Daniel, and the people of Parma inflicted a stinging defeat on him. While leading the army and guarding the imperial treasure, Taddeo was captured and killed by the people of Parma who did not want to listen to his «mellitos et super oleum mollitos sermones». Evidently, Taddeo's words so disturbed Frederick's opponents that they were unable to respond. After his death, the emperor lost his best and most trusted lawyer and the idea that Frederick was the Antichrist spread even more, heavily influencing the last years of his reign

Le chiavi del cor di Federigo: Pier della Vigna tra politica e letteratura
No full textCapuano di origini “borghesi”, Pier della Vigna dopo gli studi universitari, probabilmente (ma non è certo) compiuti a Bologna, iniziò una carriera di successo nell’amministrazione imperiale che lo portò ad essere prima giudice della Magna Curia, in seguito protonotaro e logoteta, di fatto a capo della cancelleria del regno. Impegnato almeno dal 1230 in numerose missioni diplomatiche per conto di Federico II, Pier della Vigna negli anni trenta e quaranta del XIII secolo, fino alla caduta in disgrazia del 1249, fu il principale dictator di parte imperiale e si incaricò di scrivere gran parte delle epistole e dei documenti con i quali si combatté il violento scontro politico e diplomatico fra l’imperatore e i papi Gregorio IX prima e Innocenzo IV dopo. Il cosiddetto Epistolario di Pier della Vigna, che raccoglie, insieme con i suoi, anche testi non scritti da lui, contiene circa 550 tra manifesti, privilegi, mandati, epistole e documenti vari. Diffusa nel tardo Medioevo nelle cancellerie di tutta Europa, dove fu considerata modello sommo di ars dictaminis, la silloge è tràdita, in varie forme e tipologie di raccolta, da circa 250 manoscritti ed è senza alcun dubbio un documento letterario di primaria importanza, sia dal punto di vista retorico e culturale, che come fonte storica per la ricostruzione delle vicende del XIII sec
