Vedere l'aperto. Il cinema di Andrea Segre
All’interno del capitolo dal titolo Vedere l’aperto: Il cinema di Andrea Segre, il testo affronta l’analisi dei film di finzione realizzati da Andrea Segre. Vengono ripercorsi temi cari al cinema di Segre, come il confronto con l’alterità e l’incontro dei personaggi provenienti da luoghi e culture differenti, l’attenzione per il paesaggio, l’osservazione di realtà circoscritte declinata attraverso uno sguardo più ampio, non localizzato ( si veda a tale proposito Io sono Li e La prima neve). Per l’ultimo lungometraggio L’ordine delle cose, la scrittura si concentra sullo studio del personaggio principale, Corrado, alto funzionario dello Stato, chiamato dal Ministero degli Interni ad arrestare il flusso migratorio dalla Libia all’Europa, al fine di mettere in luce le modalità narrative ed espressive adottate dal regista dirette a spostare il punto di vista su noi occidentali, rispetto alle opere precedenti
L'estimo e l'economia
In questo primo capitolo, senza pretesa di esaustività, si intendono introdurre alcune teorie fondamentali alla base della valutazione delle risorse economiche, quali immobili o intangibili, beni privati e pubblici piani e progetti di trasformazione, strategie di sviluppo urbano e sostenibilità, attualmente oggetto di interesse dell'estimo. Considerando che gli asset intangibili, quali il benessere e la cultura, sono diventati sempre più cruciali per lo sviluppo e la crescita economica dei diversi Paesi, oltre che risorse sempre più scarse, il campo di interesse dell'estimo si è ampliato, inglobando anche tali beni. Le relative metodologie di valutazione sono piuttosto articolate e, in questa sede, si intende fornire solo una sintetica presentazione dei principali approcci mutuati dalle diverse discipline cui si fa cenno, fra queste la matematica finanziaria e l'econometria (illustrate in appendice), l'equilibrio spaziale, le scienze economiche e sociali che servono per capire e governare la complessità delle scelte nel campo dello sviluppo urbano sostenibile e Smart City. La questione ambientale rappresenta un imperativo non trascurabile a livello planetario. In economia, essa assume specifiche connotazioni di carattere morale ed etico, con riferimento al concetto di green economy. L'economia verde riconosce e investe nel capitale naturale, considerando la biodiversità come il tessuto vivente proprio di questo pianeta, che contribuisce al benessere umano e fornisce servizi gratuitamente, risorse preziose per il benessere delle persone. Insito nella green economy è anche il concetto di sviluppo sostenibile che da alcuni decenni sta impegnando studiosi di diverse discipline, ed in particolare gli studiosi di valutazione economica per la necessità di definire appropriate metriche di riferimento alle diverse scale (spaziali), dai materiali, all'edificio, alla città, fino alla scala territoriale e global

Postpartum depression screening in mothers and fathers at well-child visits: a feasibility study within the NASCITA cohort
Objective: To assess the feasibility of the family paediatrician's (FP) role in identifying the signs of postpartum depression in parents in time to guarantee child well-being. Design, setting and participants: Data for this observational prospective study were collected within the NASCITA (NAscere e creSCere in ITAlia) cohort. During the first visit, paediatricians collected sociodemographic data regarding the parents and information about their health status, the pregnancy and the delivery. Whooley questions were administered during the first and second visits (scheduled 60-90 days after childbirth). Moreover, on the third visit (5-7 months after childbirth) the FP was asked to answer 'yes' or 'no' to a question on the parental postpartum depression, based on his knowledge and on the acquired information. Results: In 2203 couples who completed the assessment, 529 mothers (19.9%), 141 fathers (6.3%) and 110 (5%) couples reported any depressive symptomatology. Of these, 141 mothers (5.3% of the total sample) and 18 fathers (0.8% of the total sample) were classified as 'likely depressed'. An association was found between maternal postnatal depressive symptoms and having a diagnosed psychiatric disorder during pregnancy (OR 9.49, 95% CI: 3.20 to 28.17), not exclusively breastfeeding at hospital discharge (OR 1.76, 95% CI: 1.19 to 2.61) and the presence of child sleeping disorders at 3 (OR 2.46, 95% CI: 1.41 to 4.28) and 6 months (OR 2.18, 95% CI: 1.37 to 3.47). Another significant predictor of postpartum depression was being primiparous (OR 1.99, 95% CI: 1.31 to 3.02). Concerning the fathers, a significant association was reported only between likely depressed fathers and child sleeping disorders at 3 months (OR 7.64, 95% CI: 2.92 to 19.97). Moreover, having a likely depressed partner was strongly associated with depressive symptoms in fathers (OR 85.53, 95% CI 26.83 to 272.69). Conclusions: The findings of this study support the feasibility of an active screening programme for parental postnatal depression during well-child visits as an integral part of postpartum care.

Abstract
SiC/SiC ceramic matrix composites (SiCf/SiC CMCs) are regarded as the new materials for the hot-section components of aircraft gas turbine engines, since they have one-third of the density of metallic superalloys, a higher temperature capability, good mechanical strength, and excellent thermal shock resistance. However, high-temperature water-vapor-rich combustion gases can induce severe surface recession phenomena in SiC/SiC leading to component failure. For this reason, it is necessary to design protective coatings, i.e., environmental barrier coatings (EBCs), able to protect the SiC/SiC surface in combustion environments. In the present work, ytterbium monosilicate (Yb2SiO5), stable when exposed to water vapor at high temperatures, and ytterbium disilicate (Yb2Si2O7), characterized by a thermal expansion coefficient closer to that of the substrate, were selected for a multilayer EBC system. EBCs were processed using the atmospheric plasma spray (APS) technique. A set of deposition parameters were tested, varying the power of the torch, and the composition and microstructure of the deposited coatings were studied in terms of porosity, crack density, and post-deposition phase retention by performing SEM, EDS, and XRD analysis. The results allow for the definition of the influence of deposition parameters on the final properties of multilayer EBC coatings

Scrivere senza anestesia. La chiarezza di Giulia Niccolai
Il saggio colloca storicamente la narratrice e poetessa Giulia Niccolai nel canone del Novecento letterario italiano discutendone poetica e cifre stilistiche. L'ampia analisi proposta tocca tutte le opere dell'autrice evidenziandone i legami intertestuali, anche tra poesia e narrativa, e i progressivi sviluppi in un arco cronologico esteso, tra anni Sessanta e primi anni Duemila. Lo studio coglie anche l'importanza dei riferimenti alle arti visive, in particolare alla fotografia, che Giulia Niccolai ha praticato in prima persona negli anni della Neoavanguardia, e alla pittura americana.The essay places the narrator and poet Giulia Niccolai in the canonical twentieth century Italian literary discussing her poetics and stylistic figures. The wide analysis proposed touches all the works of the author highlighting the intertextual links, also between poetry and narrative, and the progressive developments in an extended chronological period, between the Sixties and early Twenties. The study also captures the importance of references to the visual arts, especially photography, which Giulia Niccolai has practiced in the years of the Neo-avant-garde, and to American painting

L'afrofuturismo tra Stati Uniti e Italia. Dalla memoria storica ai viaggi intergalattici per re-immaginare futuri postumani
In this article the author explores the cultural movement called Afrofuturism, tracing its origins, features, simbology, and its historical and political meanings. Starting from the (supposed) discoursive gap between African and African American people on one side and technology and science fiction on the other, this paradigm addresses themes related to the intersection of African Diaspora and African cultures with technology and science fiction, with the aim to recover the history of slavery and racism through the projections into alternative space-time contexts. In particular, the author explores the feminist afrofuturism perspective in order to examine the specific oppression and cultural production of African and African American women. In doing so, the author analyzes the development of afrofuturism in Italy, focusing on the work of the singer and beatmaker Karima 2G
