M. Vitale, L’«autodidascalo» scrittore. La lingua della Scienza Nuova di Giambattista Vico
La recensione ha per oggetto il volume di Vitale, che mette a confronto i tratti di stile (toni e figure) e di lingua (fonetica, morfologia, sintassi, lessico, modalità testuali) delle tre edizioni (1725, 1730, 1744) della Scienza Nuova. Si sottolinea l’ampiezza e la puntualità della documentazione, che si distende per molte decine di pagine; documentazione che oltre a mostrare una lingua assai ricca e variata, anche per la presenza di neoformazioni, consente di seguire nel dettaglio il processo di riscrittura, nel passaggio da un’edizione all’altra
Treating hepatitis C in the elderly: the future is near?
INTRODUCTION:
The population of patients with hepatitis C is aging. In some countries, the prevalence of hepatitis C virus (HCV) is actually greater in older patients than in younger individuals. It is also anticipated that hepatitis C will increasingly become a disease of older persons. However, patients older than 70 years are typically excluded from clinical trials. The decision to treat older patients is complex and cannot be made at the sole discretion of the physician.
AREAS COVERED:
There is an urgent need to analyze treatment outcomes in the elderly to examine response rates in order to aid in therapeutic decision making.
EXPERT OPINION:
In geriatric HCV-infected patients, dual therapy with pegylated IFN plus ribavirin is associated with a lower sustained virologic response and a higher discontinuation rate. Even the first-generation protease inhibitors are associated with high rates of side effects, in particular in elderly patients with a high prevalence of comorbidities. The recent development of interferon-sparing regimens could change the treatment paradigm in this setting, and a much larger number of patients could have access to the antiviral therapy programs
The Poem of Memory. "Triumphi"
Writing of the "Triumphi" Fabio Finotti finds that its author undercuts a medieval idea of ascent to God in the structural progression from Love to Chastity, Death, Fame, Time, and Eternity. Here Petrarch programmatically counters Dante, transforming a universal, eschatological vision into a subjective, cultural and psychological experience
