    Comparing Greek Colonies. Mobility and Settlement Consolidation from Southern Italy to the Black Sea (8th – 6th Century BC). Proceedings of the International Conference (Rome, 7.–9.11.2018)

    The need for a "new" book on Greek colonization arose to analyse this phenomenon as a long-term process in a wide geographic area. The events related to individual cities and regions, although geographically very distant from each other, are linked through an articulated network of material and immaterial relations and have to be considered as part of a broader mobility process in a Mediterranean perspective. The intention of "Comparing Greek Colonies" is to bring geographically and culturally distant regions such as Southern Italy/Sicily and the Black Sea, closer together, not merely to find "similarities and differences", but to broaden the scholars’ perspective and overcome existing, generalizing, and biased models, that are often rooted in local scientific traditions. The proceedings of the international conference "Comparing Greek Colonies. Mobility and Settlement Consolidation from Southern Italy to the Black Sea (8th – 6th century BC)", 7.–9.11.2018 in Rome, are structured around three core topics (economic system; relationships with the indigenous populations; social and territorial systems) that constitute the cornerstones of the political formation of the polis in the Archaic period and for its development during the Classical and Hellenistic Ages

    Una raccolta di contributi di amici, colleghi, allievi uniti dal comune ricordo per Enzo Lippolis e dall'interesse scientifico nei confronti dell'archeologia di Taranto e del suo territorio, a partire dal sito di Saturo, che per un decennio è stato luogo di scavo e ricerca per Lippolis e anche occasione d'incontro per i curatori del volume. Il volume è organizzato in senso topografico e cronologico, secondo una sorta di cerchio concentrici a carattere tematico progressivamente sempre più ampi

    Quantitative Evaluation of Prevention Strategies in Public Health

    Full text link
    Various schemes of prevention measures in public health are developed and analyzed on the basis of a general mathematical model. Features related to cost issues, including primary and secondary prevention interventions, differential survival experiences and communicable diseases are in turn used to show the potentialities of the theoretical framework. A numerical application is presented with reference to Italian cancer data
