    Profili della libertà in Antonio Rosmini

    No full text
    La parola “libertà” evoca una pluralità di sentimenti, significati, accezioni e suggestioni. L’anelito più alto di ogni uomo riluce in una bellissima definizione di Antonio Rosmini: «la persona è libertà». Consapevoli della profondità e della portata di tale espressione, diversi studiosi del pensiero del Roveretano si sono cimentati nell’indagare una pluralità di profili e sfaccettature che la libertà assume nella sua esperienza di vita e nei campi del sapere che egli analizza: dalla metafisica alla politica, dal diritto alla teologia, dall’ecclesiologia alla spiritualità. Lungi dal pretendere di esaurire il caleidoscopio dei riverberi del tema nell’articolata e ampia prospettiva di pensiero rosminiana, il volume offre una serie di originali affondi sul tema, ospitando contributi di F. Bellelli, F. De Giorgi, M. Ferronato, M. Gobbo, M. Krienke, C. Liermann Traniello, P. Marangon, A. Mingardi, S. Muscolino, V. Nardin, M. Nicoletti, P. Pagani, A. Peratoner, P. Salomoni, G.P. Soliani, A. Staglianò, S.F. Tadini, S. Zanardi

    Indagine intorno alle origini dell'enciclopedismo moderno nei suoi fondamenti teorici: linee evolutive dell'aspirazione all'unificazione e sistematizzazione del sapere nella prima età moderna

    L'interesse enciclopedico quale preoccupazione costante nell'età moderna si manifesta da un lato nell'avvertita esigenza di una decifrazione della struttura della realtà, dall'altro nel desiderio di un'inventariazione degli enti appartenenti ai diversi ambiti della natura da ordinare e riconoscere nella loro strutturazione reciproca. La ricerca muove i primi passi dal confluire quattrocentesco della riflessione logica e della mnemotecnica all'incontro del centro d'interesse che viene man mano formandosi e in cui ha larga parte la rinascita del lullismo. A queste si sommano la levitazione simbolica delle forme di conoscenza e la rinnovata coscienza artistica della modernità nascente, che determina anche figurativamente la dottrina dei 'luoghi' che col tempo assurgerà al ruolo di griglia di riferimento della sistematizzazione delle conoscenze. La triade dei platonici rinascimentali quattrocenteschi Cusano - Ficino - Pico della Mirandola sembra nel contempo consolidare e raccogliere queste aspirazioni ancora per molti aspetti sparse e 'puntiformi' in una solida concezione ontologica e antropologica in cui l'unità sostanziale della natura e la centralità dell'uomo rispetto ad essa quale microcosmo predispongono all'operazione enciclopedica che, se non viene ancora esplicitamente teorizzata come tale, nondimeno affiora più volte in forma di potenzialità dello spirito umano. Intanto importanti prospettive e orientamenti del rinnovamento dialettico e retorico dell'Italia del Quattrocento contribuiscono alla formazione della riflessione di Rudolf Agricola, destinata a una profonda influenza nel secolo successivo, e al volgere del secolo la logica si inclina sempre più a strumento di rappresentazione della realtà nelle sintesi dalla crescente connotazione metafisica di Lefèvre d'Etaples, Clichtowe e Bovillus. In quest'ultimo in particolare sembrano affiorare elementi-spia che rivelano la natura dell'aspirazione enciclopedica stessa come direttamente connessa al progressivo formarsi della coscienza della soggettività nel pensiero moderno. La più fitta ripresa del lullismo nel Cinquecento corrisponde ad un sensibile movimento di deriva magico-esoterica dell'ars e dell'intero progetto di unificazione del sapere, deriva che a partire da Agrippa e Murner, raggiunge alla fine del secolo la massima espressione nella complessa elaborazione di Giordano Bruno. Alla metà del Cinquecento, però, il parallelo sviluppo della riflessione dialettico-retorica dà luogo, con Pietro Ramo, ad un primo assestamento centrato intorno alla formulazione del 'metodo', destinato a notevoli echi ed influenze ancora nel secolo successivo, mentre nella seconda metà del Cinquecento si precisano la simbolica dei caratteri e comincia a farsi strada l'idea di Teatro del mondo come forma espositiva della conoscenza a carattere enciclopedico. The encyclopedical interest as a constant task in the modern age shows on the one hand the need of a deciphering of the reality structure, on the other the desire to inventory the beings belonging to the different nature frameworks to order and recognize in their disposition. The research move from the confluence, in the fifteenth century, of the logical reflexion and mnemonic arts on a new centre of interest, where a large part have the lullism renaissance. All that is joined by the symbolical levitation of the knowledge forms and the renewed artistical conscience of the dawning modern civilization, that determine also figuratively the 'topical' doctrine that gradually will take the place of a reference 'grill' for the knowledge systematization. The platonical triad of the fifteenth century, composed by Cusano, Ficino and Pico della Mirandola seems at the same time consolidate and gather up these aims still sprinkled in a sound ontological and anthropological conception where the substantial unity of Nature and the central position of man as a microcosm arrange the encyclopedical operation that, if it is still not explicitly theorized, it appears more times as a human spirit potentiality. Meanwhile some important perspectives of the dialectical and rhetorical renewal of Renaissance Italy contributes to the definition of the thought of Rudolf Agricola, that will have a deep influence in the following time. At th end of the fifteenth century the logic tend to became an instrument of representation of reality in the more metaphysical synthesis of Lefevre d'Etaples, Clichtowe e Bovillus. In Bovelles expecially seems to appear some element that shows the character of the encyclopedical aim as directly connected to the progressive growth of the subjective conscience in modern thought. A more intense revival of lullism in the sixteenth century correspond to a sensible magic-esoteric drift of the ars and of the entire project of unifing knowledge. This drift, from Agrippa and Murner, reach at the end of the century its maximum in the thought of Giordano Bruno. However in the mid of sixteenth century the parallel development of the dialectical­rhetorical reflexion produces, with Petrus Ramus, a first adjustment around the concept of 'method', still influent in the following century, while in the second half of the sixteenth century take shape the characters symbolic and begin to take place the idea of Theatrum mundi as an expositive form of the encyclopedical knowledge

    «L'odiosità dei monopoli». Appunti sugli aspetti liberistici del pensiero di Rosmini

    No full text
    Antonio Rosmini’s interest for economic matters and political economy is well-known. This paper investigates Rosmini’s understanding of competition and the role of government in fostering economic development. Rosmini endorsed a positive view of free-market competition, seeing corporatist schemes as contrivances for the benefit of private interests vis-à-vis the common good. When it comes to international trade, Rosmini admitted in principle some qualifications for the application of the principle of free trade, endorsing a gradualist approach to achieve a condition of full free trade, like Adam Smith. However, the conditions he posed for the legitimacy of protection and tariffs are such that a case for a mercantilist read of his work can hardly be made. A closer look at his writings confirms the intuition of Pietro Piovani, who suggested in the 1950s that his understanding of laissez-faire is a cornerstone of this philosopher’s political thought

    La libertà del governo in Rosmini

    No full text
    This paper does not pretend to exhaust the sphere of freedom in the conception of government that Rosmini develops in his political works: it will dwell on some aspects that make it possible to show the relevance of the principle of passivity in that sphere – that of the government of civil society – in which the (earthly) destiny of man is at stake, underlining the link between this principle and freedom and taking care to show also the role of the virtue of prudence. The centrality of freedom in the functions of government is fundamentally linked to two facts: the first is that the person is the ontological fulcrum of civil society; the second is that, for Rosmini, the person is freedom, so much so that society presupposes freedom. He who governs civil society is free to the extent that he directs all his actions towards the attainment of the true human good, the ultimate goal of society

    Radici tomistiche, stato liberale e suggestioni democratiche nella Costituzione secondo la giustizia sociale. Brevi considerazioni circa il contributo di Antonio Rosmini al diritto costituzionale ottocentesco

    No full text
    This paper highlights how the Constitution of Social Justice (1848) is based on the principles of natural law as understood within the Thomistic tradition. The constitutional idea of social justice in the liberal state, while considering Antonio Rosmini's specific cultural roots, seems to have set itself the task of ensuring the protection of fundamental rights according to principles rooted in equality and reasonableness. The application of the idea of social justice to constitutionalism, which Antonio Rosmini traces back to the Thomistic concept of natural law and the inescapable components of it in a secularized interpretation (common good, equity, dignity of the human being) involves the balancing of rights and duties within the framework of constitutional protection

    Dynamic Course of Clinical State Transitions in Patients Undergoing Advanced Life Support after Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest

    No full text
    Objectives: Studies of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest generally document the presenting (pulseless electrical activity [PEA], ventricular fibrillation/tachycardia (VF/VT), asystole), and the final states (resuming stable spontaneous circulation [s-ROSC], being declared dead). Only a few studies described the transitions between clinical states during advanced life support (ALS). The aim of this study was to describe and analyze the dynamics of state transitions during ALS. Methods: A retrospective analysis of 464 OHCA events was conducted. Any observed state and its corresponding changing time were documented through continuous electrocardiographic and trans-thoracic impedance recording. Results: When achieved, most s-ROSCs were obtained by 30 min, regardless of the presenting state. After this time point, the persistence of any transient state was associated with a great probability of being declared dead. The most probable change for VF/VT or PEA at any time was the transition to asystole (36.4% and 34.4%, respectively); patients in asystole at any time had a 70% probability of death. Patients achieving s-ROSC mostly came from a VF/VT state.In most cases, the presenting rhythm tended to persist over time during ALS. Asystole was the most stable state; a higher degree of instability was observed when the presenting rhythms were VF/VT or PEA. Transient ROSC episodes occurred mainly as the first transition after the presenting state, especially for initial PEA. Conclusions: An understanding of the dynamic course of clinical state transitions during ALS may allow treatment strategies to be tailored in patients affected by OHCA

    Orizzonti mantovani. Spunti e dinamiche paesaggistiche ne L'Illustrissimo di Alberto Cantoni

    In the literary production of Alberto Cantoni, short story writer and novelist between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the novel L'Illustrissimo is highly important both because it is the last publication of the author, from Pomponesco, a small town a few kilometers south of Mantua, both because it summarizes in a single text the different nuances and different directions that his writing has taken over the course of his literary career, also due to a writing and processing time that embraces the entire span of years of his career itself. In the foreground, in addition to the numerous and brilliant characters, one of the protagonists is the Mantuan landscape which, not a simple background, becomes a true literary parameter which in different and significant ways affects the purposes and mechanisms of the novel
