    Sul problema dell’autenticità e della datazione della Consolatio ad Liviam

    No full text
    The paper focuses on the question of Consolatio ad Liviam’s author and date, which has been recently faced again in two important books. A survey of how the author of the epicedium introduces himself to the readers and a closer examination of the intertextual relationships between the Consolatio and Ovid’s works allow to prove with reasonable certainty that the poem was composed not before 13 A.D. (and therefore is not a ‘true’ epicedium for the death of Drusus) and that the author pretends to be Ovid (that is to say, the Consolatio is not just a ‘chronological’ fake, but a proper pseudepigraphon)

    In Ov. fast. 3, 697-710, editors make Vesta’s speech end at line 702. In this paper the author suggests that it is more likely, on both thematic and stylistic grounds, that Vesta is still speaking in next lines and that the end of her speech should be put instead at line 708

    Questioni di unitarietà nei Tristia di Ovidio

    No full text
    This paper deals with the important but neglected question related to some poems in Ovid's Tristia that should possibly be divided into two different poems and that John Barrie Hall divided in his Teubner edition (15; 19; III 4; IV 4; v 2; v 7). Through a close examination especially of stylistic devices, the author points out that some poems are most likely to be divided (I 5 and III 4), one poem is almost certainly a single poem (v 7), while three poems involve more complex issues, but are more likely to be' divided (19, rv 4, and V 2)

    Inizio o fine? Nota su Ov. fast. 2, 1-2

    No full text
    In this paper the author suggests to print Heinsius’ conjecture hinc at Ov. fast. 2,1-2 (Ianus habet finem: cum carmine crescit et annus; / alter ut hinc mensis, sic liber alter eat) and to transfer the couplet from the beginning of the second book to the end of the first (as Riese first suggested), comparing the last couplet of the same book (2,863-864: venimus in portum libro cum mense peracto. / Naviget hinc alia iam mihi linter aqua) and taking into consideration a large number of both thematic and stylistic issues, which seem to strongly confirm the hypothesis

    TNF-alpha and insulin-resistance: Metabolic effects of in vivo therapeutic blockade

    No full text
    Insulin resistance is a key pathophysiologic feature of obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus and prediabetic states (impaired fasting glucose, impaired glucose tolerance). TNF-α, a proinflammatory cytokine, plays an important role in the pathogenesis of insulin resistance associated with inflammation during the course of rheumatic diseases. Therapies aimed at neutralizing TNF-α, such as the monoclonal antibody infliximab, represent a relatively new approach in the treatment of rheumatic diseases and allow to obtain significant results in terms of control of the inflammatory process. In this article we reviewed the scientific evidence published in the literature about a potential role of TNF-α blockade in improving insulin resistance in rheumatic patients without diabetes

    A remark on the ideal extension property

    No full text
    As a sequel to [23] we investigate ideal properties focusing on subtractive varieties. After having listed a few basic results, we give several characterizations of the commutator of ideals and prove, for example, that it commutes with finite direct products. We deal with the ideal extension property (IEP) and with related commutator properties, showing for instance that IEP implies that the commutator commutes with restriction to subalgebras. Then we characterize varieties with distributive ideal lattices and relate this property with (a form of) equationally definable principal ideals and with IEP. Then, at the other extreme, we deal with Abelian and Hamiltonian properties (of ideals and congruences), giving for example a purely ideal theoretic characterization of varieties of Abelian groups with linear operations. To finish with, we present a few examples aiming at vindicating our work
