The history of the Romano famili and "Angelo, tyran de Padoue" by Victor Hugo.
No full textreservedVictor Hugo, nel dramma Angelo, tyran de Padue, ricama tre diverse epoche storiche: i primi decenni dell’Ottocento, a lui contemporanei; la metà del Cinquecento, prescelta per lo svolgimento dell’azione drammatica; il tardo Medioevo evinto dai personaggi principali che compongono il racconto. Tuttavia, l’interesse storico e prettamente romantico verso il periodo medievale assume in quest’opera una rilevanza primaria. Tra le tante casate del nord Italia nominate dall’autore nell’opera, una su tutte sembra essere davvero simbolica. Particolarmente interessante è stato comprendere come la storia della famiglia da Romano costituisca il fulcro della costruzione drammaturgica. Ezzelino III e Cunizza da Romano sono elevati a emblema della poetica romantica e divengono funzionali al messaggio politico e sociale dell’autore.Victor Hugo, in his play Angelo, tyran de Padue, embroiders three different historical epochs: the first decades of the 19th century, contemporary with him; the middle of the 16th century, chosen for the unfolding of the dramatic action; and the late Middle Ages evoked by the main characters in the story. However, the historical and purely romantic interest in the medieval period takes on primary importance in this work. Of the many northern Italian lineages named by the author in the work, one in particular seems to be truly symbolic. It was particularly interesting to understand how the history of the da Romano family forms the core of the dramaturgical construction. Ezzelino III and Cunizza da Romano are elevated to emblems of romantic poetics and become functional to the author's political and social message

Oltre i confini della razionalità
No full text- Il contributo di Angelo Volpe prende in esame fondamentalmen-te due oggetti: primo, la potenzialità indiscussa nella sociologia contemporanea degli approcci individualistici e razionali e, secondo, la necessità di trascendere la gabbia stessa della razionalità e di andare oltre. Ciò che l’autore auspica è la realizzazione di un “modello a spettro intero” per l’analisi dei fatti sociali, un modello che possa espandere il raggio d’azione della comprensione sociologica al di là di ciò che possiamo vedere e misurare razionalmente.
- The contribution of Angelo Volpe essentially examines two objects: first, the unquestioned potentiality in contemporary sociology of individualistic and rational approaches, and, second, the need to transcend the very cage of rationality and go further. What the author hopes is the realization of a "full-spectrum model" for the analysis of social events, a model that can expand the scope of sociological understanding beyond what we can see and measure rationally

La fabbrica illuminata
No full textLa fabbrica illuminata, for voice and four-track magnetic tape, was composed by Luigi Nono in 1964. The music on tape, recorded at the Studio di Fonologia Musicale of the RAI in Milan, was the result of the complex elaboration of audio materials from different sources: parts performed by the RAI choir of Milan, “thematic” improvisations sung by the mezzo-soprano Carla Henius, voices and noises from the Italsider plant in Genoa-Cornigliano, and synthesized sounds.
Original audio sources
Three versions by the author were identified in the RAI archives in Milan:
Milan RAI Q6, 1964, analogue magnetic tape, 1 inch, 38 cm/s, quadraphonic, created by the author for performance with live voice;
Milan RAI Q7, 1965, analogue magnetic tape, 1 inch, 38 cm/s, quadraphonic. With the soloist voice recorded3 ;
Milan RAI E28, 196[5], analogue magnetic tape, 1⁄4 inch, 38 cm/s, monophonic. With the soloist voice recorded;
The copy deposited for copyright is conserved in the Ricordi Archive, Milan:
Milan Ricordi E214, 196[7], analogue magnetic tape, 1 inch, 38 cm/s, quadraphonic.
The tapes are still in good condition and include a set of metadata pertinent to the content of the recordings. The preservative re-recording of the analogue document in digital format was carried out in the Audio laboratory of the RAI in Milan, together with the MIRAGE Laboratory.
This restoration is tied to the basic document CLN 0002 in the Archive of Casa Ricordi in Milan, a digital conservative copy of the magnetic tape Q6 of the Archive of the Studio di Fonologia at the RAI in Milan.
The restoration of the sound tracks of the work has been completed at the Audio Laboratories of the University of Udine (Gorizia campus)under the expert supervision of Angelo Orcalli and edited by Angelo Orcalli. This restored version was based on the original documents and is accompanied with a technical report

Tony Angelo and the University of the South Pacific
No full textThe author, having served as a Senior Lecturer and Associate Professor at the University of South Pacific, pays tribute to Professor Tony Angelo's involvement in that University. The author notes that Professor Angelo was instrumental in the structuring and content of the Bachelor of Laws degree, and has continued to support the University in several different ways. The original aim of its law school, which remains unchanged, is to produce graduates who are appropriately prepared for a wide range of employment and service opportunities within the region and to make an outstanding contribution to the South Pacific communities. Professor Angelo has been, and continues to be, a key player in that mission
Ecology of bulinid snail intermediate hosts and transmission of schistosoma haematobium among school aged children in Shinyanga district, Tanzania
No full textA Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of
Doctor of Philosophy in Life Sciences of the Nelson Mandela African Institution of
Science and TechnologyThis study investigated transmission of Schistosoma haematobium through longitudinal
parasitological, malacological and human water contact surveys. Urine samples collected
from school children were examined for S. haematobium infection using urine filtration
method. Snail samples collected were examined for patent schistosome infections by
microscopy. Multiplex PCR assessed pre-patent infections and differentiated S. haematobium
from S. bovis. Water contact questionnaire, focus group discussion and semi structured
interviews explored community knowledge on schistosomiasis. Pre-treatment prevalence of
S. haematobium infection among school children was 34.8%. Prevalence of S. haematobium
infection was higher in older children (12–14 years) compared to younger children (6-11
years) (p<0.001) with no significant variation one-year post-treatment. Boys were more
infected than girls. No spatial association was observed between children‘s infection and the
distance from child‘s home to the nearby snail habitats. Integration of malacological surveys
linked with GPS data detected spatial association between children living in households next
to ponds with high B. nasutus having the highest prevalence of S. haematobium infection.
From 6202 Bulinus nasutus collected, 190 (3.06%) had patent infections. Rainfall pattern had
significant impact on snail population density. Water conductivity (OR 1.23; 95%CI 1.131.34;
p<0.0001) and vegetation (OR 6.84; 95%CI 2.75-16.99; P<0.0001) were significantly
associated with snail population abundance. Increase of conductivity in snail habitats with
vegetation reduced snail densities significantly (OR 0.76; 95%CI 0.68-0.86; P<0.0001).
Increase of water temperature was associated with patent infection in pond habitats (OR 0.35;
95%CI 0.45-0.62; P<0.0001) but not rivers. Other physico-chemical parameters were not
significantly associated with snail abundance. Out of 1898 B. nasutus snails for which DNA
was extracted, 100 (5.17%), 291 (15.07%) and 16 (0.84%) were S. haematobium, S. bovis and
S. haematobium/S. bovis co-infected, respectively. Water sources shared between humans and
livestock had significantly higher S. haematobium (OR 2.53; 95%CI 1.59-4.05; p<0.0001)
and S. bovis (OR 2.29; 95%CI 1.53-3.45; P<0.0001) infections. Wet season was associated
with significant reduction of S. bovis infection (OR 0.17; 95%CI 0.09-0.32; P<0.0001).
Molecular approach, malacological and a parasitological survey when tied together detect
specific schistosome species transmitted. Measures for schistosomiasis control should take
into account integrated strategies for disease elimination
