Quid meruere nepotes. Responsabilità e merito nella Pharsalia di Lucano

2017

Il contributo indaga l’epos lucaneo ricostruendo i contesti in cui compaiono nel poema meritum e derivati, immagini che coinvolgono tanto la nozione di merito quanto quella di responsabilità. Si tratta di un’oscillazione ben visibile ed operante all’interno dell’opera, dove tali accezioni tornano con frequenza a scandire tanto le azioni dei protagonisti quanto i severi giudizi del narratore. The paper deals with Lucan’s Pharsalia, reconstructing the contexts in which meritum and derivatives appear, images that both involve the notion of merit as that of responsibility. It is a highly visible and active presence within the poem, where such meanings frequently appear, characterizing both the …

Luce da Luce φῶς ἐκ φωτός – Luce su Luce (Nūr ‘alà Nūr) è un progetto che mira a individuare elementi che possano permettere la comparazione tra cultura, tradizione, ritualità ed aspetti religiosi della Cristianità ortodossa e bizantina e la dimensione più mistica e interiore dell’Islam. Durante le giornate studiosi, artisti e teologi si sono confrontati sul tema i cui contributi sono raccolti nel volume di atti. Luce da Luce φῶς ἐκ φωτός - Light on Light (Nūr 'alà Nūr) is a project that aims to identify elements that can allow the comparison between culture, tradition, rituality and religious aspects of Orthodox and Byzantine Christianity and the more mystical and interior dimension of Isl…

Ultrastructure and formation of the physogastric termite queen cuticle

1982

0040-8166 (Print) Journal Article; The physogastric termite queen is the most striking example in insects of growth in size without cuticular moulting. This phenomenon has been studied with electron microscopy and histochemical tests in two species of higher termites, Cubitermes fungifaber and Macrotermes bellicosus. The abdominal hypertrophy (physogastry) is allowed by growth of the arthrodial membranes of the swarming imago. The growth is slow (over several years) but important: the cuticular dry weight is multiplied by 20 in C. fungifaber, by 100-150 in M. bellicosus. The termite queen cuticle arises from the transformation of the cuticle of the swarming imago or imaginal cuticle (unfold…

Immunoexpression of adrenergic receptors in detrusor from patients with prune belly syndrome: a digital quantification

2010

Abstract Introduction Prune belly syndrome (PBS) presents with large-capacity bladders, high compliance and post-void residual volumes. Operative and conservative treatments are controversial. When histologically compared to normal bladder, bladder outlet obstruction results in an up- or down-regulation of adrenoceptors. Our goal was to study the immunoexpression of adrenoceptors in detrusor from patients with PBS. Materials and methods Bladder domes from PBS patients ( n  = 14) were studied (PBG). For normal controls, bladder specimens were obtained at adult surgery ( n  = 13) (CG1) and at child autopsy ( n  = 5) (CG2). Staining was performed using antibodies to α1a, α1b, α1d and β3 adreno…

Assessment of Neuromuscular Function After Different Strength Training Protocols Using Tensiomyography

2015

The purpose of the study was to analyze tensiomyography (TMG) sensitivity to changes in muscle force and neuromuscular function of the muscle rectus femoris (RF) using TMG muscle properties after 5 different lower-limb strength training protocols (multiple sets; DS = drop sets; eccentric overload; FW = flywheel; PL = plyometrics). After baseline measurements, 14 male strength trained athletes completed 1 squat training protocol per week over a 5-week period in a randomized controlled order. Maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC), TMG measurements of maximal radial displacement of the muscle belly (Dm), contraction time between 10 and 90% of Dm (Tc), and mean muscle contraction veloc…

Two new Mediterranean Stenothoe (Crustacea, Amphipoda) from the coast of Israel

2015

Within collections along the Mediterranean coast of Israel, two new species ofStenothoe(Amphipoda) were found. They were found to be living on sand or mud and probably licking the surface of grains.
