    This paper give us a demonstration of twin primes conjecture using approximation of function �(iupsilon) that we introduce in section 6. Section 1-5 give us introduction to terminology and a clarification on (iupsilon) terms. In particular section 5 is really important because of its Lemma. Section 7 reassume foregoing explanations and it give us two theorems and one corollary;the theorem 7.2 give us exact approximation of twin primes counting function

    From Greece to Stratford, and Back. Teatro dell’Elfo: Half a Century with Shakespeare and the Classics

    No full text
    Una pratica scenica rigorosa e coerente, basata su un profondo studio dei testi, caratterizza l’ensemble del Teatro dell’Elfo di Milano, che da oltre cinquant’anni fa dialogare i classici e Shakespeare. Se pure il loro lavoro è profondamente collettivo il presente studio si concentra su Ferdinando Bruni (regista, attore, traduttore, scenografo, costumista) e su Ida Marinelli che ne condivide molti progetti. Oggetto d’analisi è una selezione di spettacoli (molti dei quali diretti da Bruni o co-diretti con altri membri del gruppo) in ordine cronologico: dopo il Satyricon (da Petronio) e L'isola di Athol Fugard (da Antigone) tre successive edizioni del Sogno di una notte di mezza estate si alternano ad altrettante di Amleto. Negli anni Novanta Bruni interpreta Edipo /Eddy in Alla Greca (di Steven Berkoff), Clitemnestra in Elettra (provato, ma mai andato in scena), Admeto in Alcesti di Agnese Grieco (è anche regista di Fedra, della stessa autrice), poi Oreste in Coefore ed Eumenidi (dall’Orestea di Eschilo tradotta da Pasolini); è protagonista assoluto di SdisOrè (di Testori), traduce, interpreta e dirige La tempesta, Il mercante di Venezia, Il racconto d'inverno, co-dirige con Frongia Verso Tebe, Edipo Re una favola nera, Re Lear. Ida Marinelli, sempre al suo fianco - da Elettra a Eumenidi dal Sogno all’Amleto - è anche protagonista di Fedra, Alcesti e Cassandra (regia di Francesco Frongia).Adaptations from classical texts have constantly intertwined with Shakespeare’s plays, for the past fifty years, in the history of an Italian theatre company: since 1973 the group of Teatro dell’Elfo (Milan) has always combined a rigorous and coherent scenic practice, a preliminary study of the original texts, a free attitude in adapting and directing ancient and modern plays. The members of the company share a collective approach to theatre, and they work together to this day, alongside their personal projects. This study focuses on Ferdinando Bruni (as a playwright, director, actor, translator, performer and painter, costume and set designer) and on Ida Marinelli, who has shared the stage with him since 1973. The paper explores a few productions among those based on classical and Shakespeare plays, with special attention to the different roles and functions which Bruni takes on simultaneously: in particular, as a director – or co-director, with other members of the company (Gabriele Salvatores, Elio de Capitani and Francesco Frongia) – of many productions where he and Marinelli share the stage with fellow actors (Corinna Agustoni, Cristina Crippa, Elena Russo Arman, Luca Toracca). Rather than aiming to identify causal links between the classical and Shakespearean adaptations, this essay focuses on the unifying aesthestic and theoretical premises of the theatre collective that have allowed it to breathe new life into its adaptations, by discussing the different phases of its activit

    Established and Outsiders at the Same Time - Self-Images and We-Images of Palestinians in the West Bank and in Israel

    No full text
    Palestinians frequently present a harmonizing and homogenizing we-image of their own national we-group, as a way of counteracting Israeli attempts to sow divisions among them, whether through Israeli politics or through the dominant public discourse in Israel. However, a closer look reveals the fragility of this homogenizing we-image which masks a variety of internal tensions and conflicts. By applying methods and concepts from biographical research and figurational sociology, the articles in this volume offer an analysis of the Middle East conflict that goes beyond the polar opposition between “Israelis” and “Palestinians”. On the basis of case studies from five urban regions in Palestine and Israel (Bethlehem, Ramallah, East Jerusalem, Haifa and Jaffa), the authors explore the importance of belonging, collective self-images and different forms of social differentiation within Palestinian communities. For each region this is bound up with an analysis of the relevant social and socio-political contexts, and family and life histories. The analysis of (locally) different figurations means focusing on the perspective of Palestinians as members of different religious, socio-economic, political or generational groupings and local group constellations – for instance between Christians and Muslims or between long-time residents and refugees. The following scholars have contributed to this volume: Ahmed Albaba, Johannes Becker, Hendrik Hinrichsen, Gabriele Rosenthal, Nicole Witte, Arne Worm and Rixta Wundrak. Gabriele Rosenthal is a sociologist and professor of Qualitative Methodology at the Center of Methods in Social Sciences, University of Göttingen. Her major research focus is the intergenerational impact of collective and familial history on biographical structures and actional patterns of individuals and family systems. Her current research deals with ethnicity, ethno-political conflicts and the social construction of borders. She is the author and editor of numerous books, including The Holocaust in Three Generations (2009), Interpretative Sozialforschung (2011) and, together with Artur Bogner, Ethnicity, Belonging and Biography (2009)

    The Last Bastion of Architecture

    No full text
    The essay is a critical interpretation of Rem Koolhaas' theory of Bigness. In fact, of the theories that have best marked the development of architectural culture since World War II – from those of the Smithsons to Rossi, from Eisenman to Venturi and Scott Brown – Rem Koolhaas’s theory of Bigness has probably, more than any other, investigated the intrinsic possibilities of architecture at the end of the 20th century. In light of the number of pseudotheories that have largely characterized the last decade, Bigness is the last constituent fact of recent history: an extremely lucid attempt to draw to a conclusion a history that goes back to the very invention of the modern city, comparing it with architecture’s own immutable core, its physicality, even exposing the theory of Bigness itself to the risk of total failure. The essay investigates the development of the theory of Bigness from its incubation in Koolhaas’s book Delirious New York in 1978, to the "official" presentation in S,M,L,XL in december 1995. The essay presents some parts of the PhD research "L'architettura dei libri. Progetto, scrittura, editoria nella ricerca architettonica contemporanea", developed by the author at Università degli studi G. D'Annunzio, Chieti, Facoltà di Architettura di Pescara, in 2001-2004.

    Adaptation of Anaerobic Digestion Microbial Communities to High Ammonium Levels: Insights from Strain-Resolved Metagenomics

    No full text
    Ammonia release from proteinaceous feedstocks represents the main inhibitor of the anaerobic digestion (AD) process, which can result in a decreased biomethane yield or even complete failure of the process. The present study focused on the adaptation of mesophilic AD communities to a stepwise increase in the concentration of ammonium chloride in synthetic medium with casein used as the carbon source. An adaptation process occurring over more than 20 months allowed batch reactors to reach up to 20 g of NH4+ N/L without collapsing in acidification nor ceasing methane production. To decipher the microbial dynamics occurring during the adaptation and determine the genes mostly exposed to selective pressure, a combination of biochemical and metagenomics analyses was performed, reconstructing the strains of key species and tracking them over time. Subsequently, the adaptive metabolic mechanisms were delineated by following the single nucleotide variants (SNVs) characterizing the strains and prioritizing the associated genes according to their function. An in-depth exploration of the archaeon Methanoculleus bourgensis vb3066 and the putative syntrophic acetate-oxidizing bacteria Acetomicrobium sp. ma133 identified positively selected SNVs on genes involved in stress adaptation. The intraspecies diversity with multiple coexisting strains in a temporal succession pattern allows us to detect the presence of an additional level of diversity within the microbial community beyond the species level
