Alessandro e la manipolazione della natura
No full textL’indagine di questo studio si focalizza sugli episodi di intervento nei confronti della natura da parte di Alessandro Magno. Essi si inquadrano nel più ampio tema della stigmatizzazione, da parte della cultura classica, del comportamento di coloro che manipolano la configurazione del territorio, violandone anche la dimensione sacra. Sulla traccia degli esempi di Serse e Semiramide si collocano le opere di Alessandro che, durante la sua lunga spedizione, più volte modifica il paesaggio, tanto marino, quanto terrestre.This study focuses on the episodes of intervention against nature by Alexander the Great. They belong to the wider theme of the stigmatization, by classical culture, of the behavior of those who manipulate the configuration of the territory, also violating its sacred dimension. Following on the steps of Xerxes and Semiramis, Alessander’s works several times modify the landscape, both marine and terrestrial, during his long expedition
A imagem de Alessandro Baricco no Brasil
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2013.Com a intenção de delinear o modo pelo qual o escritor italiano Alessandro Baricco se inseriu no sistema literário brasileiro e os caminhos percorridos pelos seus livros traduzidos, esta dissertação dá voz às experiências tradutórias de seus tradutores. A inserção de Bariccono Brasil tem seu início em 1997, através de uma proposição da Profa. Dra. Roberta Barni à editora Iluminuras da tradução de Oceano Mare. A partir daí, outras sete obras foram publicadas no Brasil, sendo três delas traduzidas por Roberta Barni e as outras quatro por quatro tradutores diferentes. De um lado, considera-se o tradutor como figura principal namediação entre culturas, e, de outro, se analisa a realidade desta figuradentro do sistema literário, sua invisibilidade, seus limites e o exercíciode sua profissão. A pesquisa conta, ainda, com críticas e resenhas referentes ao autor italiano publicadas em jornais consagrados no Brasil, considerando estas como parte constituinte da imagem de Baricco refletida em território nacional. Abstract : Intending to delineate the way the Italian writer Alessandro Baricco has been inserted in the Brazilian literary system and the paths his translated books have followed, this thesis gives voice to the translating experiences of his translators. Baricco's insertion in Brazil began in 1997, through a personal project of Dr. Roberta Barni, with her translation of Oceano Mare. Since then, seven other of his works have been published in Brazil, three of which were translated by Roberta Barni and the other four by four different translators. On the one hand,the translator is considered as the main figure in mediation betweencultures and, on the other, this figure's reality is analyzed within theliterary system: its invisibility, its limits and its professional practice. Criticisms and reviews of this Italian author published in well established Brazilian newspapers are also considered, with the understanding that they are part of Baricco's image reflected here

Design and characterization of a fabric-based softness display
No full textTo enable a realistic tactile interaction with remote or virtual objects, softness information represents a fundamental property to be rendered via haptic devices. What is challenging is to reduce the complexity of such an information as it arises from contact mechanics and to find suitable simplifications that can lead an effective development of softness displays. A possible approach is to surrogate detailed tactile cues with information on the rate of spread of the contact area between the object and the finger as the contact force increases, i.e. force/area relation. This paradigm is called contact area spread rate. In this paper we discuss how such a paradigm has inspired the design of a tactile device (hereinafter referred to as Fabric Yielding Display, FYD-2), which exploits the elasticity of a fabric to mimic different levels of stiffness, while the contact area on the finger indenting the fabric is measured. In this manner, the FYD-2 can be controlled to reproduce force-area characteristics. In this work, we describe the FYD-2 architecture and report a psychophysical characterization. FYD-2 is shown to be able to accurately reproduce force-area curves of typical objects and to enable a reliable softness discrimination in human users
Sensorymotor Synergies: Fusion of Cutaneous Touch and Proprioception in the Perceived Hand Kinematics
No full textAccording to classical studies in physiology, muscle spindles and other receptors from joints and tendons provide crucial information on the position of our body and our limbs. Cutaneous cues also provide an important contribution to our sense of position. For example, it is possible to induce a vivid sensation of movement in the anesthetized finger, by stretching the skin around the proximal interphalangeal joint. However, much of proprioceptive literature did not consider the role of tactile interaction with external objects as position and motion cues. Whenever we touch an external, stationary object, the contact forces produce a mechanical deformation of the skin which changes with the hand posture and movement. Therefore, these cutaneous contact cues might also provide proprioceptive information. In this paragraph, evaluated this hypothesis based on recently published experimental data
La maturità di Alessandro Fei del Barbiere, in bilico tra Maniera e Riforma
No full textThis article studies the mature career of the Florentine painter Alessandro Fei del Barbiere (1537-1592), beginning with the rediscovery of the 'Ascension' altarpiece formerly in the Albizi Chapel in the destroyed church of San Pier Maggiore, Florence. Studying this painting and others recorded in 1584 by the biographer Raffaello Borghini, such as the two altarpieces for Santa Maria delle Grazie and the Madonna dell'Umiltà in Pistoia, the author reconstructs a body of works showing how in the 1580s Fei gradually went beyond the archaic style of his apprenticeship - he had been trained by Ridolfo del Ghirlandaio and Pierfrancesco Foschi, but was also marked by the Maniera of Vasari - evolving towards naturalism in both mimesis and pictorial handling. In Florence, his development partly parallels that of Santi di Tito and his circle, but Fei was also influenced by a probable sojourn during the early part of that decade in Rome, where he could have been inspired by Girolamo Muziano and the painters working for Pope Gregory XIII. Among other proposals, the author suggests that the artist was responsible for decorating the chancel of Fiesole Cathedral (c. 1584-1589), which consisted of an altarpiece, only rarely discussed by scholars, and a cycle of frescoes hitherto attributed to Nicodemo Ferrucci

Argumentando a partir de los derechos humanos. La ponderación en serio
No full textEn los Estados constitucionales modernos, se encuentra un conspicuo set de derechos, principios y valores éticos. En el presente trabajo se insiste en la necesidad de tener muy presente las investigaciones relativas a la racionalidad, el conflicto y los valores. Precisamente, porque los derechos se basan en argumentos y el balancing es una técnica argumentativa; resulta que el balancing se mueve dentro de un razonamiento práctico con el propósito de construir plataformas argumentativas que justifiquen las decisiones. Reflexionar sobre las interconexiones entre las varias plataformas teóricas es tomar en serio la ponderación, evitando el riesgo de pauperizar la Constitución y minimizar el principio de soberanía
