L'iconografia di Susanna e i vecchioni tra 1400 e 1530
No full textIl tema di Susanna e i vecchioni, dal Libro di Daniele, ha ispirato artisti e pensatori fin dall'antichità. Questa tesi esplora la rappresentazione del tema tra il 1400 e il 1530, analizzando opere di maestri famosi e artisti minori. Con un approccio interdisciplinare, si offre una visione delle opere raffiguranti Susanna e i vecchioni per capire come il soggetto sia stato interpretato durante il Rinascimento.
La prima parte esamina le fonti letterarie, dal racconto biblico ai commenti di scrittori come Girolamo e Agostino, e le opinioni di autori fino al 1530, evidenziando l'uso del tema per esprimere valori morali e riflessioni teologiche.
La seconda parte si concentra sulle rappresentazioni artistiche del tema fino al 1530, analizzando pitture, sculture e miniature per individuare continuità e cambiamenti nella rappresentazione di Susanna e i vecchioni.
La terza parte è dedicata alle rappresentazioni rinascimentali, focalizzandosi su artisti come Lorenzo Lotto, Pinturicchio e Bernardo Luini, analizzando differenze stilistiche e iconografiche e come il Rinascimento abbia enfatizzato bellezza, virtù e resistenza morale di Susanna.
The theme of Susanna and the Elders, from the Book of Daniel, has inspired artists and thinkers since antiquity. This thesis explores the representation of the theme between 1400 and 1530, analyzing works by famous masters and lesser-known artists. With an interdisciplinary approach, it provides an overview of the artworks depicting Susanna and the Elders to understand how the subject was interpreted during the Renaissance.
The first part examines literary sources, from the biblical account to the comments of writers like Jerome and Augustine, and the opinions of authors up to 1530, highlighting the use of the theme to express moral values and theological reflections.
The second part focuses on artistic representations of the theme up to 1530, analyzing paintings, sculptures, and miniatures to identify continuities and changes in the depiction of Susanna and the Elders.
The third part is dedicated to Renaissance representations, focusing on artists like Lorenzo Lotto, Pinturicchio, and Bernardo Luini, analyzing stylistic and iconographic differences and how the Renaissance emphasized Susanna's beauty, virtue, and moral resistance
First report of non-marine ostracods (Crustacea, Ostracoda) from the Dahlak Archipelago (Eritrea), with the description of two new species
No full textThe information on Recent non-marine ostracod faunas of the north-eastern part of the Afrotropical region is still limited. Here we report the first record of ostracods from the Dahlak Archipelago, a group of small islands located in the southern part of the Red Sea off the Eritrean coast. Specimens were obtained by hatching in the laboratory of diapausing eggs occurring in dried mud collected in temporary freshwater ponds, following the so-called "Sars' method". A total of five species were found, including two species new to science, of which four belong to the family Cyprididae (Cypris galefensis, Plesiocypridopsis newtoni, Heterocypris sp., and Chrissia martensi n.sp.) and one to the family Ilyocyprididae (Ilyocypris dahlakensis n.sp.). A detailed description of the morphology of valves and soft parts is given, and COX1 sequences were obtained for four species. Cypris galefensis was so far only known for its type locality in Somalia with a population containing both males and females, whereas our samples consisted exclusively of females. Plesiocypridopsis newtoni, a species characterised by a wide geographic distribution and previously known to occur also in the Afrotropical region, shows marked variability in the prehensile palps of males, as evidenced by comparing the specimens from this study with descriptions available in the literature. The genus Heterocypris (with 15 species) and the genera of the two new species described here, Chrissia (with 17 species) and Ilyocypris (with four species), have been previously reported from this biogeographic region as well. The analysed specimens of Chrissia martensi n.sp. were all females, none of which had sperm inside the carapace, indicating the possibility of parthenogenetic reproduction in this species. A peculiar sexual dimorphism in the valve morphology characterises Ilyocypris dahlakensis n.sp., with females having a straight posterior margin, forming a right angle at the ventral anterior edge. Rehydration of dry sediments collected from arid areas where wet periods are short and often unpredictable has proven to be a successful method for describing aquatic invertebrate biodiversity
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
No full textThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

A survey on the perception of knowledge on voluntary termination of pregnancy and conscientious objection among La Sapienza University of Rome medical students
No full textThe study explored the perception and actual knowledge on the topic of VTOP (Voluntary Termination of Pregnancy) and CO (conscientious objection) of the students enrolled in a specific Medical Degree course at the Sapienza University of Rome during the six years of study, using a specific 17-item questionnaire and performing inferential statistical analysis on their answers. The study showed that students have moder- ate knowledge about VTOP and OC and that the gap between knowledge and perception widens over the years to reach its peak during the sixth and final year of study. Consequently, one aspect that should be studied in depth is the role of syl- labus structuring during the six years of the course, focusing attention on the biomedical aspect of the practice of VTOP
Il contributo di Carlo Vecchioni nel dibattito napoletano sul diritto penale durante il decennio francese
No full textNell’ambito del dibattito scientifico sul sistema penale avviatosi a Napoli dopo l’entrata in vigore del codice penale francese nel 1812, il magistrato Carlo Vecchioni offrì il suo contributo alla «produzione di un buon codice penale» con un’opera intitolata Pensieri intorno ad una teoria della legislazione penale, nella quale affrontò le principali problematiche connesse al diritto penale sostanziale, come il fondamento e i caratteri della pena (in contrapposizione alle teorie sull’argomento di Gian Domenico Romagnosi, a cui non risparmiò una pungente critica), il tentativo, la colpa, la complicità, differenziandosi dagli scrittori coevi (fra cui Niccola Nicolini e Pasquale Liberatore) che si dedicarono soprattutto alle questioni inerenti alla procedura penale. Il saggio – edito nel 1815 dopo la caduta di Murat – risulta caratterizzato da una forte influenza dei postulati sul common sense dei filosofi scozzesi della scuola di Thomas Reid ed in particolare delle riflessioni di Henry Home contenute nell’Essay on the History of the criminal law, riedito nel 1814 ad Edimburgo
