Manuel Alvarez Ortega traductor de la "Antologia poetica" de O. V. de Milosz
No full textIl contributo si propone di studiare l'ampiezza dell'opera critico-traduttiva di Manuel Alvarez Ortega (1923-2014) relativa alla poesia francese moderna e contemporanea, con particolare riferimento al lavoro di traduzione delle poesie francesi dello scrittore e filosofo d'origine lituana Oskar Wladyslaw Milosz (1877-1939), cugino del poeta polacco Premio Nobel 1980 Czeslaw Milosz (1911-2004). Dopo una prima parte dedicata agli interessi e contributi francesistici di M. A. Ortega, la seconda parte si sofferma sulle sue traduzioni di alcuni testi di O. V. de Milosz al fine di mostrare l'approccio traduttivo di Alvarez Ortega, fedele ma mai letteralistico alle modalità ritmiche dell'originale, fino a evidenziare l'influenza tematico-stilistico-filosofica della poesia del lituano sulla poesia del suo traduttore spagnolo

Siboga Expedition, Sta. 305, dredge. Remarks. The material examined includes a collection of specimens from the area of Lesser Sunda very similar in shape and skeletal organisation to Phakellia tropicalis. The Lesser Sunda specimens are found deeper, down to 274 m depth, than the northern Australian populations, and have thicker and longer spicules. Some specimens are infested with the Parazoanthus. Further illustrations (Fig. 8) and spicules measurements (Table 7) are provided here for comparative purposes. This species was first described from northern Australia and assigned to Phakellia provisionally because it shares characteristic of the skeleton with the dictyonellid genus Acanthella, and surface characteristics with axinellid genera such as Axinella and Cymbastela. The species is genetically related to Axinella and Dragmacidon spp. (Alvarez et al. 2000; Redmond et al. 2013), which are characterized by different morphologies, skeletal organisation and spicule composition. Alvarez & Hooper (2009) also suggested that the species might belong to a new genus which could accommodate species of erect form and ‘bubaris-like’ skeletons currently assigned to hidden Acanthella and Phakellia. Distribution. The species was first described for the Sahul Shelf (with the majority of records reported from northern Australia (i.e Bonaparte Gulf and Arnhem Coast to Gulf of Carpenteria MEOW) (Alvarez & Hooper 2009). It is also found in the Northwest Australian Shelf province (Alvarez & Fromont unpublished data). Assuming that this material is conspecific with P. tropicalis, the distribution of the species is wider than initially thought and should be extended to the Central-Indo Pacific province (Fig. 2). x 3.7–9.5 µm (7 ± 1.6) x 9 –16.4µm (13.8 ± 2) NTM Z004463* Wessel Is 293.1–800 µm (553.4 ± 134.6) 273.6–658.2 µm (439.6 ± 111.1) x 4.4–8.4 µm (6.6 ± 1.1) x 8.3–16 µm (11.2 ± 2.2) QM G 312926 * Papua New Guinea 277.8–696.3 µm (476.4 ± 117.6) [24] 239.6–490.6 µm (343.5 ± 69.5) x 4.2–8.4 µm (6.3 ± 1.1) x 5.9–11.5 µm (8.7 ± 1.8) *Data from Alvarez & Hooper (2009)Published as part of Alvarez, Belinda, De Voogd, Nicole J. & Soest, Van, 2016, Sponges of the family Axinellidae (Porifera: Demospongiae) in Indonesia, pp. 451-477 in Zootaxa 4137 (4) on pages 464-466, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4137.4.1, http://zenodo.org/record/27193

The Law of Nations in the United States Constitution after the cases Sosa V. Alvarez and Kiobel V. Royal Dutch Petroleum CO
No full textAbstract: American scholars discuss the meaning of the Law of Nations in the United States Constitution. On the one side, the Modern view interprets the Law of Nations as customary international law. On the other side, the Traditional view considers the Law of Nations as a dead concept that only Congress can bring back to life through its legislation. The case Sosa v. Alvarez defined the Law of Nations in the Alien Tort Statute as customs sufficiently precise to be recognized as law among civilized nations. The recent case Kiobel et al. v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al. confirmed the Sosa v. Alvarez’s definition of the Law of Nations, but rebutted some extraterritorial application of the Alien Tort Statute.The purpose of this paper is to reconsider the meaning of the Law of Nations in the United States Constitution after Sosa v. Alvarez and Kiobel et al. v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al. This paper argues that American courts should extend the Sosa v. Alvarez’s definition of the Law of Nations to the United States constitutional context. Key words: United States Constitution, Law of Nations, Sosa v. Alvarez, Kiobel et al. v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al., Modern view, Traditional view, Alien Tort Statute. Estratto: La dottrina Americana discute il significato della “Law of Nations” all’interno della Costituzione Americana. Da un lato, la dottrina cosiddetta “moderna” interpreta la “Law of Nations” in qualità di consuetudini di diritto internazionale. Dall’altro, la dottrina cosiddetta “tradizionale” considera la “Law of Nations” quale lettera morta, che solo il Congresso Americano potrebbe riportare in vita attraverso un atto legislativo. Il caso Sosa v. Alvarez ha definito la “Law of Nations” nell’Alien Tort Statute quale consuetudine sufficientemente precisa da essere riconosciuta in qualita’ di legge dalle nazioni civili del mondo. Il recente caso Kiobel et al. v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al ha da un lato confermato la definizione della Law of Nations del caso Sosa v. Alvarez, ma dall’altro rigettato l’applicazione extraterritoriale dell’Alien Tort Statute. Lo scopo di questo articolo è di riconsiderare il significato della “Law of Nations” nella Costituzione Americana dopo i casi Sosa v. Alvarez e Kiobel et al. v. Royal Dutch Petroleum Co. et al. Questo articolo argomenta che le corti Americane dovrebbero estendere la definizione della “Law of Nations”, indicata nel caso Sosa v. Alvarez, al contesto della Costituzione Americana.

Microbial enrichment culture responsible for the complete oxidative biodegradation of 3‑Amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (ATO), the reduced daughter product of the insensitive munitions compound 3‑Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO)
No full text3-Nitro-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (NTO) is one of the main ingredients of many insensitive munitions, which are being used as replacements for conventional explosives. As its use becomes widespread, more research is needed to assess its environmental fate. Previous studies have shown that NTO is biologically reduced to 3-amino-1,2,4-triazol-5-one (ATO). However, the final degradation products of ATO are still unknown. We have studied the aerobic degradation of ATO by enrichment cultures derived from the soil. After multiple transfers, ATO degradation was monitored in closed bottles through measurements of inorganic carbon and nitrogen species. The results indicate that the members of the enrichment culture utilize ATO as the sole source of carbon and nitrogen. As ATO was mineralized to CO₂, N₂, and NH₄⁺, microbial growth was observed in the culture. Co-substrates addition did not increase the ATO degradation rate. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction analysis revealed that the organisms that enriched using ATO as carbon and nitrogen source were Terrimonas spp., Ramlibacter-related spp., Mesorhizobium spp., Hydrogenophaga spp., Ralstonia spp., Pseudomonas spp., Ectothiorhodospiraceae, and Sphingopyxis. This is the first study to report the complete mineralization of ATO by soil microorganisms, expanding our understanding of natural attenuation and bioremediation of the explosive NTO.Journal ArticleFinal article publishe
