    The goal of this paper is to give an insight into the widely studied grammar of one of the greatest dramatists of all time, William Shakespeare. To exemplify the grammatical differences between the language of his time, which is Early Modern English, and Contemporary English, Shakespeare’s play Romeo and Juliet was chosen. The paper begins with an introduction to the EModE period, followed by an overview of Shakespeare and his life, works, and language. The second part of the paper presents my research of the morphological and syntactic structures used in Romeo and Juliet. The analyzed structures are the following: the inflectional suffixes of verbs, nouns, and adjectives, as well as the structures of noun phrase and verb phrase, ending with the EModE word order. All the constructions noted were compared to the standard language used today, and in general, there is a significant number of examples of Shakespeare’s inconsistency both in morphology and syntax, still, the part that shows the greatest variation, when compared to the present-day standard, is word order.Cilj ovog rada je pružiti uvid u gramatiku jednog od najvećih dramaturga svih vremena, Williama Shakespearea. Razlike u gramatici između jezika Shakespeareova doba, odnosno ranog modernog engleskog jezika, i suvremenog engleskog demonstrirane su primjerima iz Shakespeareove drame Romeo i Julija. Rad započinje uvodom u razdoblje ranog modernog engleskog, a zatim slijedi kratak pregled Shakespeareova života te njegovih djela i njegova jezika. U drugom dijelu rada predstavljeno je moje istraživanje morfoloških i sintaktičkih struktura korištenih u Romeu i Juliji. Strukture koje su analizirane su sljedeće: sufiksi za glagole, imenice i pridjeve, struktura imenske i glagolske sintagme, te na kraju redoslijed riječi u ranom modernom engleskom. Sve konstrukcije u drami uspoređene su sa standardnim engleskim koje se koristi danas, i sve u svemu, ima mnogo primjera Shakespearovih varijacija i u morfologiji i u sintaksi, no dio u kojemu se bilježi najviše promjena u usporedbi s današnjim standardnim engleskim je redoslijed riječi u rečenici

    Patologia Orale

    No full text
    È con molto piacere che ho accettato la richiesta di presentare la traduzione italiana del testo di Patologia Orale di Ibsen e Phelan, che a mio avviso rappresenterà un supporto irrinunciabile per chi voglia affrontare la professione odontoiatrica. In primo luogo si tratta di un testo prestigioso, come del resto tutti quelli editi dalla Saunders Elsevier, che negli Stati Uniti è giunto già alla V edizione e che finalmente arriva in Italia nella versione tradotta da Romeo, Vescovi e Del Vecchio. Lo spessore scientifico del testo è molto elevato essendo stato scritto, nella sua versione originale, da due ottime rappresentanti della New York University, con la collaborazione di autori provenienti da altre importanti università statunitensi come Texas, Ohio, Minnesota e Washington. Un’opera strutturata in maniera dinamica e moderna i cui contenuti si rivolgono con immediatezza sia agli studenti del Corso di Laurea Magistrale in Odontoiatria e Protesi Dentale e a quelli del Corso di Laurea in Igiene Dentale, sia ai professionisti di entrambi i settori che vogliano approfondire in maniera chiara ed efficace i concetti di una disciplina, quella della Patologia Orale, che troppo spesso rimane oscura a molti. Anche nella versione italiana il libro conserva inalterate le sue caratteristiche moderne e dinamiche rendendo così la sua lettura gradevole e completa. Particolarmente interessante, a mio avviso, la struttura del testo concepito in linea con le esigenze più moderne del lettore, sia esso uno studente oppure un professionista. Ogni singolo capitolo, oltre ad essere arricchito da una importante iconografia delle diverse patologie del cavo orale, è suddiviso con chiarezza in sezioni che evidenziano gli obiettivi, il glossario e i temi trattati. L’edizione italiana, inoltre, si presenta arricchita da due capitoli originali, redatti dai curatori della traduzione e riguardanti due argomenti attuali e controversi nell’ambito della Patologia Orale: le osteonecrosi dei mascellari indotte dai bisfosfonati e la sindrome della bocca urente, di frequente riscontro nella pratica clinica quotidiana. Da tutto questo emerge chiaramente che il testo di Ibsen e Phelan ha tutte le potenzialità per poter conquistare, nel pur vasto panorama dell’offerta editoriale odontoiatrica italiana, un ruolo di primo piano, per chiarezza, dinamicità ed attualità.

    Self-archiving practice and the influence of publisher policies in the social sciences

    No full text
    Authors in different disciplines exhibit very different behaviours on the so-called ‘green’ road to open access, i.e. self-archiving. This study looks at the self-archiving behaviour of authors publishing in leading journals in six social science disciplines. It tests the hypothesis that authors are self-archiving according to the norms of their respective disciplines rather than following self-archiving policies of publishers, and that, as a result, they are self-archiving significant numbers of publisher PDF versions. It finds significant levels of self-archiving, as well as significant self-archiving of the publisher PDF version, in all the disciplines investigated. Publishers’ self-archiving policies have no influence on author self-archiving practice

    What is the risk of developing medication-related osteonecrosis in patients with extraction sockets left to heal by secondary intention? A retrospective case series study

    No full text
    Purpose: Tooth and root extractions represent trigger factors for medication-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ). The best healing modality for postextraction sockets is still debated. The aim of the study was to estimate the incidence of MRONJ after extractions whose sockets were left to heal by secondary intention. Methods: A retrospective case series study was performed at the Department of Odontostomatological and Maxillofacial Sciences, Sapienza University of Rome. Only patients who underwent nonsurgical extractions, healed by secondary intention, were included in the study. The following parameters were considered: age, sex, pathologies for which bisphosphonates or other drugs related to MRONJ were prescribed, any local or systemic risk factors, type of drug used, route of administration, number of extractions performed, and number of sessions required to complete the extraction program. The main outcome variable was the occurrence of MRONJ. Statistical analysis was performed with SPSS statistical software. Results: Two hundred twenty-one patients were treated from 2007 to 2020 with 639 tooth/root extractions. All patients were treated under antibiotic prophylaxis and with anesthesia without vasoconstrictors. No cases of MRONJ occurred. The mean age of patients was 68.02 ± 11.17. Most of the study sample was represented by women (201 = 90.95%) undergoing treatment for osteometabolic pathologies, most frequently postmenopausal osteoporosis. Alendronate was the most frequently prescribed drug, taken mainly orally. Most patients had local and/or systemic risk factors. Each patient had from 1 to 17 tooth/root extractions (mean = 2.87 ± 2.59) during 1 to 4 sessions (mean = 1.41 ± 0.64). Extractions mainly involved single-rooted teeth/roots, equally distributed between the maxilla and mandible. Conclusions: Secondary intention healing after nonsurgical tooth extraction does not seem to predispose to MRONJ. It can be advisable to perform extractions under antibiotic prophylaxis using anesthetics without vasoconstrictors and chlorhexidine mouth rinses in the 7 following days
