From James Joyce to Katherine Mansfield: Epiphanic Poetics and Writing of the Self
No full textWith the term and notion of epiphany Joyce created not only what was to become a fundamental tool for the interpretation of his own work. He gave a name to – thus contributing to make visible – an issue which, to a large extent, characterised all modernist poetics and which determined the restless formal experimentation of the period. In this essay, I analyse some aspects of Katherine Mansfield’s reflection on the epiphanic moment, which she calls “glimpse”. My aim is twofold: on the one hand, I wish to highlight the original stance of this major and highly innovative author, whose deep theoretical awareness has long been undervalued; on the other hand, I intend to provide material for further critical investigation on the affinity and difference between Mansfield and Joyce on the notion of epiphany, thereby contributing to the general critical debate on the aesthetics which developed during the first decades of the twentieth century
On the canonization of Edward III
No full textIn recent decades, the apocryphal play Edward III has undergone a process of canonization: after Giorgio Melchiori’s fundamental edition for the New Cambridge Shakespeare (1998) and its inclusion both in the second edition of The Oxford Shakespeare (2005) and in The New Oxford Shakespeare (2016), the recent publication of the long-announced edition, by Richard Proudfoot and Nicola Bennett, for the Arden Shakespeare Third Series (2017) seems to ratify the definitive admission of the play to the Shakespeare canon. This process, however, has taken place in the context of heated debates over the notions of ‘canon’ and 'author’ which render the concept itself of ‘canonization’ problematic. Taking its cue from the recent Arden edition, this essay aims to review some key moments in the publication history of Edward III and to highlight the peculiarities that make its Shakespearean attribution a unique case study worthy of further critical scrutiny
Financial Statement Valuations in Italy: The Contribution of Fabio Besta (1845-1922)
No full textFabio Besta (1845-1922) is widely recognized as one of the founding fathers of Italian accounting theory and as a prominent figure at an international level. Among his most significant contributions, his theorization on the topic of financial statement valuations stands out, characterised by a notable degree of originality. Although starting from the economic studies of the time on the theory of value, Besta elaborates a framework consistent with his conception of accounting as a “science of economic control”. This paper aims to analyse this contribution, going beyond simple historical reconstruction to delve into how the author addressed the complex problem of choosing between different valuation bases. Particular attention is paid to the comparison between the criterion of exchange value and the criterion of cost, a debate that still retains great relevance. Understanding the historical origins of these approaches allows us to interpret contemporary accounting choices with greater awareness, bringing out the theoretical and practical roots of still-open questions
Teleological versus Non-Teleological Perspectives in Financial Statement: The Debate between Chambers and Onida
No full textThe paper examines the scientific debate that took place in 1973 in the journal Rivista dei Dottori Commercialisti (Italian Journal of Chartered Accountants) between Pietro Onida and Raymond J. Chambers concerning the nature of financial statement information. Our research revealed that Onida was the advocate of a teleological theory of the financial statement, whereas Chambers supported the perfect neutrality of accounting information. Going back to theoretical precedents, the thoughts of the two scholars have different ontological and epistemological assumptions. If, ontologically, Chambers conceives reality as unique and objective, being inspired by the neopositivism of the ‘‘received view,’’ Onida admits the existence of multiple realities by adopting an interpretivist perspective. Epistemologically, the Australian scholar approaches accounting as a pure science by leveraging its deductive moment rather than empirical recognition, whereas the Italian author conceives accounting as an ‘‘application science’’ and adopts a method where the inductive approach prevails

Systemic vasculitis and the lung
No full textThe purpose of this review is to provide a critical analysis of the recent literature on this topic, with particular focus on the most relevant studies published over the last year. Recent findings Many studies are published every year on the diagnosis, pathogenesis and treatment of pulmonary involvement in antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). The main subjects covered by this article are the pathogenesis, diagnosis and clinical aspects of lung involvement in ANCAassociated vasculitis and non-ANCA-associated vasculitis. Summary Lung involvement is a common feature in systemic vasculitis. The lungs are one of the most frequently involved organs in systemic vasculitis. In order to provide an update on the recent advances in the pathogenesis, clinical features and novel treatments of lung involvement in systemic vasculitis, a systematic MedLine search has been performed. Most of the data analyzed have confirmed that lung involvement seems to develop more frequently in patients with myeloperoxidase-ANCA-positive AAV, mainly in those with a diagnosis of microscopic polyangiitis (MPA), compared with patients with proteinase 3 ANCA-positive AAV. Moreover, among non-ANCA-associated vasculitis lung involvement may represent a worrying complication of the disease, mainly when associated with vascular involvement
Conservation Genetics of Mediterranean Brown Trout in Central Italy (Latium): A Multi-Marker Approach
No full textBrown trout is considered a complex of incipient species, including several phylogenetic
lineages, whose natural distribution in the Mediterranean area has been altered, since the beginning
of the 1900s, by massive introductions of domestic strains of Atlantic origin to support fisheries.
Introduced trout naturalize in new suitable environments and extensively hybridize with native
populations. Here, we characterized putatively neutral and adaptive genetic variability and population
structure of Mediterranean brown trout from six river catchments in central peninsular Italy,
as revealed by both mitochondrial (Control Region) and nuclear (microsatellites, LDH-C1, major
histocompatibility complex) markers. We quantified the admixture of wild populations with hatchery
strains and evaluated the effects of domestic trout introductions on shaping population genetics. Our
analyses indicated: (1) a composite picture of genetic variability in the area, with the presence of all
native Mediterranean trout mitochondrial lineages (“Adriatic”, “Mediterranean”, “marmoratus”), various
frequencies of allochthonous genotypes and different rates of introgression among sampling sites;
(2) asymmetric mito-nuclear introgression; (3) increasing nuclear marker diversity with increasing
levels of admixture across populations; (4) strong population structure coupled with relatively low
effective population size. Data allowed the identification of five management units and we propose
specific actions to support ongoing and future conservation strategies within the examined area
