No full textImage is Reality: between Spectres and living Dead
This paper investigates the concept of image and imagination. It starts with Bergson’s theories of image in “Matter and memory” that invoke a new epistemic idea according to which the image is not more a copy of reality, but reality itself. This “philosophy of image” allow rethinking the knowledge process as impersonal, released from the concept of subjectivity. Through the analysis of Blanchot we can observe how the image is similar to deads, or better, to living deads. The image, floating between what is alive and what is dead, makes trembling any separation between the effective and not-effective, being and not-being, the virtual and the actual. Lastly for these reasons we have to rethink it
«VOIR PLUS QU’ON NE VOIT»: FILOSOFIA DELL’IMMAGINE O IMMAGINE DELLA FILOSOFIA?
No full textThis article investigates Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s concept of vision and his philosophical link with the painting of the artist Paul Cézanne. Through the works “Cézanne’s Doubt” and "Eye and Mind", this article shows that this link is not occasional, but it assumes an important philosophical role. Cézanne’s painting could be described using crucial concepts of both phenomenological project and method of Merleau-Ponty, this is the case, for instance of concepts like chiasme and expression. Along this article we could see the concept of vision switching into the meaning of "profondeur". A different meaning which emerges, according to the French philosopher, observing Cézanne works. The vision of both the artist and the philosopher is deeper than the vision that others could have. This is why the very vision is a remains of the invisibility which is to the heart of visibility. Therefore the art experience is a good example of the embodied experience, of the vision that could not be transparent but always chained
Fare Terra. Istituzione ed espressione in Maurice Merleau-Ponty
Full text linkIn this article, we aim to focus on the notion of Earth in Merleau-Ponty’s reflections on the concept of nature and his reinterpretation of the Husserlian Umsturz. In doing so, we will use the expression “Earth-making” to describe a particular instituting dynamic, where by the term “institution” we wish to refer to the Husserlian concept of Stiftung and its original reworking by Merleau-Ponty during his 1954-55 course at the Collège de France: L’institution - La Passivité.
We will therefore identify the concept of institution as a privileged way to describe our relationship with the Earth, understood as Boden [soil], envisaging in the instituting dynamic as something close to art. Finally, we will try to illustrate what Merleau-Ponty means by transcendental geology, namely the capacity to grasp the original relationship between space and time and a new way of conceptualizing the Earth as aIn this article, we aim to focus on the notion of Earth in Merleau-Ponty’s reflections on the concept of nature and his reinterpretation of the Husserlian Umsturz.

Filosofare alla fine dei tempi. Riflessioni agambeniane
No full textThis work focuses on the apocalyptic nature of Giorgio Agamben's philosophical works. The dialogue with Agamben is full of references to St. Paul's letters, Kafka's literary works and Benjamin's messianism. This work tries to define the criteria of the kairological time, considered as a section of the chronological time which deactivates the discretionary mechanism, along the same lines as St. Paul's lessons, which reformulate the distinction between Jews / non-Jews. In this diacritic strategy lies the secret of any future philosophy, that is profanation, meant as the abolition of any sacred limit and the return to a human use
QUEL CHE RESTA DELLA PSICANALISI. UNA LETTURA MERLEAU‐PONTIANA DI FREUD
No full textThis paper
investigates Maurice
Merleau‐Ponty’s
interest about
Freud’s
philosophical works.
It invokes the
Freud’s recognition
as “Master of the
School of
suspicion”, a famous
definition made by
Paul Ricœur.
According to Ricœur,
Freud’s theories
take place within
the philosophical
stream that looks at
“constituted cogito”
with deep mistrust.
Through the analysis
of “Phenomenology of
Perception” we can
observe the
accusation of
“pansexuality” moved
by Merleau‐Ponty.
However, as Merleau‐
Ponty’s philosophy develops and his view changes from “existential” to “ontological”, the relation
between Freud and Merleau‐Ponty changes accordingly, until the acknowledgment of the unconscious as
a prediction of the “chair”
SU FILOSOFIA E LETTERATURA. VARIAZIONI INTORNO A MERLEAU‐PONTY E L’AUTOFICTION

out from a specific
literary style,
autofiction, which bounds
autobiographical inputs to
mere fiction. It will be

ambiguity of this narrative
form, aiming to an
impossible sincerity.
Indeed the problem of truth
is precisely the spot where
philosophy and literature
meet each other’s destiny,
as proved by Merlau‐Ponty’s
theory of expression and
the use of literary style.
Since when contemporary
philosophy challenged
rationalistic claims coming
from traditional
metaphysics, literature
stops to be its “ugly
twin”. Since when
philosophy is not charged
of explaining the world
anymore, but creating a
version of it, literature
has become increasingly
influent
Progettazione, sintesi ed attività di inibitori del Proteasoma a base peptidica
No full textThe ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP) influences essential cellular functions including cell growt, differetiation, apoptosis, signal transduction, antigen processind and inflammatory responses.
Themain proteolytic component of the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway (UPP)is the 26S proteasome, responsible for the turnover of many cellular proteins and represents an attractive target for the treatment of pathologies such as cancer, as well as inflammatory, immune and neurodegenerative diseases.Natural and synthetic proteasome inhibitors having different chemical structures and potency have been discovered.In my PhD I worked on the design, synthesis and biological activity of molecules bearing pseudopeptidiche farmacoforiche different units at the C-terminus, as potential substrates for the interaction with the catalytic enzyme threonine, can inhibit specifically and selectively multicatalytic complex.Based on the data obtained from other series of inhibitors developed in our research group, which provided interesting biological results, I have designed and prepared based molecules peptides bearing new units farmacoforiche C-terminal, represented by groups isoxazolin vinyl-ester and dichloro- naftochinonici. Another series of derivatives instead, presents the methyl ester of trans-trans-muconic which pharmacophore linked to the side chain of a lysine residue common to all pseudo-tripeptides of the series.The new compounds were tested on the enzyme isolated based on their ability to inhibit three different catalytic activities of the proteasome: some of these, such as derivatives dichloro-naftochinonici, have shown a good ability of inhibition of the site post-acidic β1 and site chyme-tryptic β5
