Testing times for global financial governance
Ignazio Angeloni believes that the increase in financial interdependence in recent decades has not been matched by sufficient progress in the international coordination among regulatory authorities. In fact, the international financial system has suffered from insufficient globalisation of regulatory and supervisory policies, not excessive globalisation of financial markets.

Fontamara reescrito no Brasil em 1935
Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2014.O romance Fontamara, do escritor italiano Ignazio Silone (1900-1978), é publicado pela primeira vez em 1933, pela editora Verlag Oprecht und Helbling de Zurique, com a tradução em língua alemã de Nettie Sutro. Por razões políticas e ideológicas, o texto é impedido de circular oficialmente no sistema literário italiano nos anos do fascismo. O próprio autor vive um período de exílio e não pode voltar à Itália, pois seria preso pela polícia fascista, por ser considerado um subversivo. No Brasil, o texto é traduzido por Aristides Lobo e publicado pela editora Cultura Política, em 1935, dois anos após a primeira edição. Pensando nas tensões políticas e nas mudanças sociais e econômicas que ocorrem no Brasil da década de 30, e na posição que assume a literatura traduzida dentro de uma cultura, o presente estudo investiga quais são as principais motivações que levam à publicação do texto Fontamara em 1935, no Brasil. As reflexões partem da perspectiva de tradução como reescritura, proposta entre outros teóricos por André Lefevere (2007), que trata do papel das reescrituras dentro de um sistema literário. Deste complexo processo que é o ato tradutório, participam tanto a figura do tradutor (reescritor), como mediador, quanto outros agentes, que determinam que tipo de texto pode ou não circular entre o público leitor, segundo aquele que Lefevere chama de sistema de mecenato.Abstract : The Fontamara novel, by Italian writer Ignazio Silone (1900-1978), is first published in 1933, by Verlag Oprecht und Helbling from Zurich, with a translation into German by Nettie Sutro. For political and ideological reasons, the text is prevented from circulating officially inside the Italian literary system, during the years of fascism. The author himself experiences a period of exile and cannot return to Italy, where he would be arrested by the fascist police, under the accusation of being a subversive element. In Brazil, the novel is translated by Aristides Lobo and published by Cultura Política in 1935, two years after its first edition. While considering the political tensions and social and economic changes taking place in Brazil in the 30s, and the role of translated literature within a culture, this study investigates the main motivations that lead to the publication of Fontamara in 1935, in Brazil. These reflections are made from the perspective of translation as rewriting, a conjecture proposed among other theorists by André Lefevere (2007), who deals with the role of rewriting within a literary system. The complex process of translation involves both the figure of the translator (rewriter ), as a mediator, as well as that of other agents who determine what kind of text may or may not circulate among the reading public, according to a scheme that Lefevere calls the patronage system
The Discovery of Insulin: An Important Milestone in the History of Medicine
The discovery of insulin represents an authentic breakthrough, characterized, at the same time, by contrasts, controversies and disputes among scholars, as well as by great disappointments, failures and hopes. It is the story of famous, almost famous and little known people, of serendipities, discoveries and re-discoveries. The discovery of insulin has been a milestone and has truly revolutionized both the therapy and the prognosis of the diabetes, one of the diseases most studied in the history of medicine, whose first mentions trace back to a collection of ancient Egyptian, Indian and Chinese textbooks. As stated by Colwell, the introduction of insulin has heralded the end of the so-called “pre-insulin era” or “frustration era”, paving the way for a new era and clinical advancements. The current review offers a broad, comprehensive overview of main steps culminating into insulin discovery, including recent advancements such as personalized and individualized insulin therapy
IGNAZIO SILONE E O SENTIMENTO DA TERRA
ABSTRACT: This papers aims to discuss the work of the Italian author Ignazio Silone, specially the portrait of the relation betwen men and the land. The author lived in troubled times in Italy, with of conflicts related to landpossession, Silone became a militant and had to become clandestine. That is his situation when he publishes most of his important works like Fontamara, in which he portraits his love for the land and the suffering of being apart of it

Leopoldo Maggi. Physican, anthropologist and archaeologist
This article is dedicated to Leopoldo Maggi, a leading scholar of the second half of the nineteenth and his important contributions in the field of archaeological research. The truth about human evolution can be achieved by the scientific analysis of bones. This could be Leopoldo Maggi’s scientific motto, if he had ever written one. Maggi wrote no mottos but left to modern scientists a very important anthropological and paleontological heritag
Sandra Teroni, "Da una modernità all’altra. Tra Baudelaire e Sartre", Marsilio 2017. Dialogo tra Ignazio Cannas e l'autrice
Ignazio Cannas, psychoanalyst, has a dialogue with Sandra Teroni on the occasion of the publication of her book Da una modernità all’altra. Tra Baudelaire e Sartre (From one Modernity to another. Between Baudelaire and Sartre - Marsilio 2017). The issues addressed are: an unresolved oscillation of the artist and the human being between the research of a style to give voice to emotions and the active presence in the history; the sense of those that the author calls “the figures of disillusionment” – the escape, the wandering, the foreigner, the shipwreck and the swamp – that can be considered metaphors through which, in the modernity, man tries to represent the problems of his being in relation with the other and his living in the world.Ignazio Cannas, psicoanalista, dialoga con Sandra Teroni in occasione della pubblicazione del suo libro Da una modernità all’altra. Tra Baudelaire e Sartre (Marsilio 2017). I temi trattati sono in particolare: una irrisolta oscillazione dell’artista e dell’essere umano fra ricerca di una forma in cui dare voce alle emozioni e attiva presenza nella storia; il senso di quelle che l’autrice chiama “figure del disincanto” - l’evasione, l’erranza, lo straniero, il naufragio e la palude - che possono considerarsi metafore attraverso cui, nella modernità, l’uomo cerca di rappresentare la problematica del suo essere in relazione con l’altro e del suo essere al mondo
Structure, drug absorption, bioactive and antibacterial properties of sol-gel SiO2/ZrO2 materials
Zirconia widely used in biomedical applications has three crystalline forms, but the transformation from tetragonal to monoclinic is a serious problem in the biomedical field. In this regards, silica was added to stabilize the tetragonal zirconia phase. In fact, in this study four SiO2/ZrO2 composites with different percentages of zirconia were synthesized with the sol-gel method. The aim of the present study was to check the suitability of these materials as a vector in the adsorption of an active drug. After the sintering process at different temperatures the materials have been chemically and biologically characterized. The interactions between the inorganic matrices and the identification of the different crystalline phases depending on the temperature of the thermal treatment were evaluated by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and XRD analysis.
Furthermore, the absorption of ampicillin was carried out using UV–Vis. The bioactivity was studied after soaking the materials in simulated body fluid (SBF) for 21 days, by observing the characteristic peaks of hydroxyapatite by FTIR analysis. Finally, after drug absorption the materials were incubated against Escherichia coli in order to evaluate the antibacterial properties and the release of the drug from the different composites
