    La tesi si presenta come un lavoro preparatorio all’edizione critica dei Trii con pianoforte di Robert Schumann, in collaborazione con la Robert-Schumann-Gesamtausgabe e in cotutela con l’Università di Lipsia. Il lavoro comprende l’edizione critica delle Mährchenerzählungen op. 132 (pubblicata dalla Gesamtausgabe in un volume a parte dedicato alla musica da camera con pianoforte – RSA II/3, delle Phantasiestücke op. 88 e del primo Trio con pianoforte, violino e violoncello op. 63. Ai problemi critici presentati dalle opere scelte nella tesi si affianca una ricerca di tipo informativo sui più importanti giornali dell’epoca: per la maggior parte sulla Neue Zeitschrift für Musik, l’Allgemeine Musikalische Zeitung e la Neue Berliner Musikalische Zeitung, in un arco temporale compreso fra il 1830 e il 1860. Partendo dalle recensioni – schumanniane e non – dei trii del suo tempo, lo scopo é stato quello di mettere in luce complessivamente la presenza e le caratteristiche del prodotto “Trio con pianforte”; la loro diffusione e il loro status fra gli altri generi della musica da camera tedesca, le critiche e le caratteristiche, in un interscambio produttivo fra indagine filologica e contesto storico-estetico. I risultati di questa ricerca vengono esposti nel primo capitolo della tesi, e confluiranno nella introduzione generale all’edizione critica vera e propria. In appendice si riportano le recensioni più significative

    LooS: co-producing youth mental healthcare

    No full text
    The increasing waiting times in youth mental health care pose a significant challenge, driven by a shortage of specialists and external factors that complicate diagnosis and prolong treatment. Shoshin, a multidisciplinary strategic design and innovation agency, has developed a solution known as the Fit Op Weg Poli (FOWP) to address this issue for adult care at GGZ Delfland. This thesis aims to engage youth healthcare providers in the development of a youth FOWP.To tackle the design challenge, the double diamond method is applied, involving extensive research and collaborative sessions. This process led to the development of LooS, a co-production framework tailored for young individuals aged between twelve and twenty-seven years old. Co-production for LooS leads to improved service delivery and increased efficiency, aiming to transform youth mental health care.LooS incorporates several crucial elements to support youth mental health. An easily accessible well-being gym is provided, empowering young individuals to enhance their resilience and overall well-being. A walk-in centre offers a safe and non-judgmental space for peer interaction and support. The intake process involves a comprehensive assessment, and each young person is assigned a dedicated buddy who provides support throughout their recovery journey. Welcome packages are provided to manage expectations and offer essential resources, including e-health tools and information about the recovery process.Recovery is facilitated through group sessions with a recovery coach, accompanied by the use of e-health tools for progress monitoring and exercises for continued growth. LooS aims to transition 20-30% of clients to a stage where therapy is no longer required, while those who still need therapy will receive specialised group therapy, after recovery.In the case of a crisis, the program can be scaled up swiftly to provide immediate support. After a crisis, diagnosis-specific therapy will always be provided, and the recovery coach ensures continued aftercare. The aftercare is structured in layers, offering self-testing and a safety net for a smooth transition. Once individuals no longer require aftercare, they bid farewell to their buddy and continue working on their mental resilience in the well-being gym.LooS is designed to be adaptable for implementation in multiple centres/locations across The Netherlands, allowing for widespread access to youth mental health care. To support open discussions with healthcare providers, a visual aid called the “Praatplaat” and a brochure have been created. These tools highlight the impact of LooS on the care pathway and waiting times to enable engagement among healthcare providers to co-produce their own LooS centres. A comprehensive blueprint has been developed, providing a clear and structured guide for the co-development process of Shosin with healthcare providers.In conclusion, LooS is a new approach to youth mental health care, focusing on proactive work on mental resilience, accessible support services, and collaborative engagement. By implementing LooS, the aim is to transform the youth mental health care system, reduce waiting times, and provide holistic care for youth. LooS offers a path towards improved outcomes and well-being, ultimately creating a brighter future for the youth of The Netherlands.Strategic Product Desig

    Measurability of Loos' rejection of the ornament - Using box-counting as a method for analysing facades

    No full text
    As evidence from recent years has demonstrated, box-counting provides an objective fractal analytical method to evaluate the visual complexity of architecture. This paper for the first time explores the potential of box-counting with regard to the work of the Viennese architect Adolf Loos (1870-1933). Loos is seen as the pioneer of modern architecture, as someone who anticipated the International Style. This impression derives from his resentments towards the ornament, expressed especially in his texts. However, Loos did not reject ornamentation in general. Thus, the group of smooth plastered facades provides a narrowed view on his overall architectural concept. A more differentiated view on Loos' oeuvre is not new; however, the author further develops the possibilities of describing facades geometrically by using an implementation of the fractal analytical method, especially created for facades. This paper not only focuses on the possibility of grouping facades with similar characteristic values, but considers other aspects of Loos' design such as space as well

    Loos and Venturi & Scott Brown. From an ornament in modernity to a post-modern symbol

    [ES] Bien pudiera afirmarse que Adolf Loos y Robert Venturi junto con Denise Scott Brown, marcaron el inicio de dos de los movimiento arquitectónicos más importantes del Siglo XX. Sus escritos sirvieron para fundar los postulados del Movimiento Moderno y de la Posmodernidad. A pesar de tratarse de arquitectos tan diferentes, sus actitudes no son tan distintas, al defender una arquitectura honesta, cargada de mensaje y dispuestos a transgredir los dogmas pasados, al no considerarlos ya aptos para la sociedad de su momento. Permítasenos elegir dos ejemplos de cierto carisma. El proyecto de la casa para Josephine Baker sirve para ilustrar la posición de Adolf Loos. Se trata de un proyecto cargado de simbolismo, donde la propia fachada se convierte en mensaje. Décadas más tarde, Venturi & Scott Brown construirían al otro lado del Atlántico la Guild House, el primer gran edificio etiquetado como posmodernista por su carga simbólica y el uso irónico del ornamento, en gran parte debido a la falsa antena. Estos proyectos del maestro austriaco y de Robert Venturi & Denise Scott Brown sirven también para ilustrar su teoría, convirtiéndose de esta manera en manifiestos construidos. Teorías que hoy siguen perdurando.[EN] It could be said that Adolf Loos and Robert Venturi together with Denise Scott Brown, marked the beginning of the most important architectural movements in the 20th century. Their writings served to establish the hypothesis of the Modern Movement and Post-Modernity. Despite dealing with very different architects, their attitudes are not very different when defending an honest architecture, full of message and willing to break with past dogmas, since they are not considered appropriate for current society. Allow us to choose two examples of a certain charisma. The house designed for Josephine Baker serves to illustrate the position of Adolf Loos. This is a project full of symbolism, where the facade itself becomes a message. Decades later, Venturi & Scott Brown will build on the other side of the Atlantic, the Guild House, the first great building labelled as post modernist for its symbolic load and its ironic use of ornaments, mainly due to the false antenna. These designs by the Austrian master and Robert Venturi & Denise Scott Brown also serve to demonstrate their theory, becoming therefore built manifests.
