Motivi letterari nei libri per l’infanzia di Paolo Di Paolo
No full textThe article, organised in the form of a discussion, aims to analyse the themes and motifs of Paolo Di Paolo’s works that are addressed to young audiences. The author has recently published a large number of volumes directed just at younger readers. When beholding the titles that constitute the author’s bibliography, the reader is struck by Di Paolo’s predisposition to transform literary classics: as much in Giacomo il signor bambino as in the edition of the Divina Commedia, the author’s goal is to try to reach his new readers. Therefore, Di Paolo proves to be a prolific author of the genre; in fact, in his bibliography, volumes of fairy tales with a classic slant, such as La mucca volante, are listed as well.L’articolo contiene un’analisi di temi e di motivi delle opere di Paolo Di Paolo dirette al pubblico più piccolo. L’autore negli ultimi anni ha pubblicato un cospicuo numero di volumi indirizzati, infatti, proprio ai lettori più giovani. Ciò che stupisce scorgendo i titoli che costituiscono la bibliografia dell’autore, è la predisposizione a trasformare i classici della letteratura: tanto in Giacomo il signor bambino quanto nell’edizione della Divina Commedia l’obiettivo è cercare di raggiungere i lettori più giovani. Di Paolo si dimostra, quindi, un autore prolifico del genere, tant’è che nell’elenco non mancano volumi fiabeschi dal taglio classico come La mucca volante. Analizzare le opere giovanili dello scrittore costituisce un fatto inedito
Growth rate of a wild population of the Javelin Sand Boa, Eryx jaculus (Linnaeus, 1758): first evidence from a long-term study in Sicily, Italy
Full text linkIndication and Timing
No full textTracheostomy is performed in patients requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation aiming at avoiding the potential detrimental effect of a sustained translaryngeal intubation (e.g. laryngeal oedema, mucosal ulcerations). Potential benefits of tracheostomy in critically ill patients are improved comfort and reduced need for sedation, easier clearance of secretions and oral hygiene, and a possible faster weaning from mechanical ventilation. Controversy exists over optimal timing (early, tracheostomy placement compared with later time points) in patients with respiratory failure. Among the published randomised controlled trials, two large studies did not report a significant advantage of an early tracheostomy compared to a late procedure for the primary outcomes of incidence of ventilator-associated pneumonia and all-cause of mortality at 30 days from randomisation. In non-head injured blunt trauma patients with prolonged respiratory failure, tracheostomy placement after 7–10 days seems appropriate. This timing would avoid the potential procedural complications of an unnecessary procedure in patients with a possible shorter period of mechanical ventilation. Further investigations are needed for giving proper indication and timing of tracheostomy in selected populations (e.g. traumatic and non-traumatic neurologic injuries)
Pier Paolo Pasolini e la società: il "sogno di una cosa" travolto dalla "nuova preistoria"
No full textL’articolo prende in esame – nel centenario della nascita – il “pensiero politico” di Pier Paolo Pasolini. Vengono pertanto scandagliati (soprattutto) i suoi scritti sulla società, ma frequenti sono le incursioni nella letteratura e soprattutto nel cinema di questo autore del tutto originale. Ne emerge lo spessore di concetti spesso usati dal poeta per analizzare e criticare il presente: Nuova Preistoria, nuovo capitalismo, consumismo, edonismo, il Potere, il Palazzo, il Processo, sviluppo e progresso, sacralità in primis. Si evidenzia inoltre come l’occhio e il giudizio di Pasolini siano stati principalmente guidati dalla passione e solo di rimando dalla ragione. Un ruolo non secondario nella sua percezione del reale ha inoltre assunto la sua omosessualità. Nella parte finale dello scritto si analizzano alcuni strumenti tecnici utilizzati dall’autore per svolgere la propria opera di comprensione del presente e della sua conseguente traduzione artistico-critica.The article examines - in the centenary of his birth - the "political thought" of Pier Paolo Pasolini.
Therefore, it scrutinizes (above all) his writings on society, but there are frequent incursions into the literature and especially into the cinema of this completely original author. What emerges is the depth of concepts often used by the poet to analyze and criticize the present: New Prehistory, new capitalism, consumerism, hedonism, Power, the Palace, the Process, development and progress, sacredness in primis. It also shows how Pasolini's eye and judgment were mainly guided by passion and only by reason. His homosexuality also played a significant role in his perception of reality. In the final part of the paper we analyze some technical tools used by the author to carry out his work of understanding the present and its consequent artistic-critical translation

Cultures of Energy brings writers, artists and scholars together to talk, think and feel their way into the Anthropocene. We cover serious issues like climate change, species extinction and energy transition. But we also try to confront seemingly huge and insurmountable problems with insight, creativity and laughter.Here's a little preview of the Cultures of Energy Podcast! Look for episodes on iTunes and Stitcher as soon as all the tubes get connected and all the magic podcast elves work through their holiday shopping. Cymene and Dominic answer the question ‘why do an energy humanities podcast?’ and confess their past radio sins.

At The Same Time. Essays and Speeches
No full textIn 2006 Paolo Dilonardo was chosen by the Susan Sontag Literary Estate as one of the editors of Sontag’s posthumous work. The access to Sontag private archives allowed him and Anne Jump to reconstruct form and intentions of the collection of essays Sontag was outlining in the last years of her life. Through the study of her manuscripts, Dilonardo and Jump prepared the essays for publication, restoring the original version of the pieces that were cut or edited at the time of first publication in magazines, and incorporating the corrections and edits the author made after that first publication. The result of their work is Susan Sontag, At the Same Time. Essays and Speeches, edited by Paolo Dilonardo and Anne Jump. Foreword by David Rieff, published first in the United States then in the U.K. The collection of essays edited by Dilonardo and Jump was then translated into French, Spanish, German and Portuguese. The Italian edition, translated by Paolo Dilonardo, was published by Mondadori in 2008
Data of cost-optimal solutions and retrofit design methods for school renovation in a warm climate
Full text linkAbstract"Efficient Solutions and Cost-Optimal Analysis for Existing School Buildings" (Paolo Maria Congedo, Delia D’Agostino, Cristina Baglivo, Giuliano Tornese, Ilaria Zacà) [1] is the paper that refers to this article. It reports the data related to the establishment of several variants of energy efficient retrofit measures selected for two existing school buildings located in the Mediterranean area. In compliance with the cost-optimal analysis described in the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive and its guidelines (EU, Directive, EU 244,) [2,3], these data are useful for the integration of renewable energy sources and high performance technical systems for school renovation. The data of cost-efficient high performance solutions are provided in tables that are explained within the following sections.The data focus on the describe school refurbishment sector to which European policies and investments are directed. A methodological approach already used in previous studies about new buildings is followed (Baglivo Cristina, Congedo Paolo Maria, D׳Agostino Delia, Zacà Ilaria, 2015; IlariaZacà, Delia D’Agostino, Paolo Maria Congedo, Cristina Baglivo; Baglivo Cristina, Congedo Paolo Maria, D’Agostino Delia, Zacà Ilaria, 2015; Ilaria Zacà, Delia D’Agostino, Paolo Maria Congedo, Cristina Baglivo, 2015; Paolo Maria Congedo, Cristina Baglivo, IlariaZacà, Delia D’Agostino,2015) [4–8]. The files give the cost-optimal solutions for a kindergarten (REF1) and a nursery (REF2) school located in Sanarica and Squinzano (province of Lecce Southern Italy). The two reference buildings differ for construction period, materials and systems.The eleven tables provided contain data about the localization of the buildings, geometrical features and thermal properties of the envelope, as well as the energy efficiency measures related to walls, windows, heating, cooling, dhw and renewables. Output values of energy consumption, gas emission and costs are given for a financial and a macro-economic analysis.This data article provides 288 and 96 combinations for REF1 and REF2, respectively. The output values are obtained using the software ProCasaClima 2015v.2.0
