A hero on the sidelines : the role of a morally ambivalent supporting character in young adult fantasy series
2017
Tässä maisterintutkielmassa tutkin moraalisesti ambivalenttia sankaria nuorten fantasialle ominaisena sivuhenkilötyyppinä. Tutkimuskohteena on kolme nuorille aikuisille suunnattua, modernin fantasian lajiin kuuluvaa kirjasarjaa: Christopher Paolinin Perillinen (2003-2011), Cassandra Claren Varjojen kaupungit (2007-2014) ja Rick Riordanin Olympoksen sankarit (2010-2014). Jokaisesta sarjasta tutkittavaksi on nostettu yksi moraalisesti ambivalenttia henkilöhahmotyyppiä edustava sivuhenkilö. Tutkimuskysymykseni ovat: Miten moraalisesti ambivalentteja sankareita kuvataan nuorten fantasiassa? Mitä funktioita heillä on sivuhenkilöinä ja miten he suhteutuvat keskeisempiin henkilöihin ja tarinan kaa…
Current caselaw discrepancies in the protection of national symbols and state representatives between the European Court of Human Rights and Spanish …
2021
Despite the general consensus about freedom of expression being a basic fundamental right on every democratic society, the debate about its boundaries has never found such a pacific agreement. Thus, the Spanish Penal Code has several articles that punish its abuse that are highly contested, like articles 490.3 and 543 that penalize the offenses directed towards national symbols or State representatives. This being so, this article examines the controversy generated by the application of this articles through the analysis of two judgements issued by the European Court of Human Rights against Spain, and a third one issued by the Spanish Constitutional Court that could follow the same path. Th…
Nell'officina del "Gattopardo". Lo spazio interiore della casa

Nell'officina del Gattopardo. Studi sull’opera di Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa
2018
La monografia nasce da una prospettiva di ricerca di gruppo che si è sviluppata poi in un’analisi tematica che ha ricondotto a questioni attinenti alla genesi del romanzo. La ricerca inoltre ricostruisce i termini di un dibattito sul caso Gattopardo di cui si pongono in risalto alcuni snodi cruciali. Quello che vede «L’Ora» di Nisticò chiamare per due volte (nell’anno di pubblicazione del ro- manzo e nel decennale) intellettuali siciliani, e non, a pronunciarsi sul successo del romanzo e, con esso, sul tema della Sicilia su cui si incentrò una delle fondamentali battaglie culturali del quotidiano palermitano. Nella tradizione, dunque, di una scuola, questa monografia, in occasione dei se…

Surrogate-assisted multicriteria optimization: Complexities, prospective solutions, and business case
2017
Complexity in solving real-world multicriteria optimization problems often stems from the fact that complex, expensive, and/or time-consuming simulation tools or physical experiments are used to evaluate solutions to a problem. In such settings, it is common to use efficient computational models, often known as surrogates or metamodels, to approximate the outcome (objective or constraint function value) of a simulation or physical experiment. The presence of multiple objective functions poses an additional layer of complexity for surrogate-assisted optimization. For example, complexities may relate to the appropriate selection of metamodels for the individual objective functions, extensive …
Dental implants rehabilitation in a patient with head and neck radiotherapy for osteosarcoma in the jaw. A clinical case report
2021
A 52-year-old female patient with a diagnostic of osteosarcoma in the mandible, in which it was necessary a reconstruction with a microvascularized osteomyocutaneous fibula bone. Coadjuvant chemotherapy was scheduled. Two years later, 4 osseointegrated implants (OII) were placed in the fibula a 2 OII in the right mandible, using a splint guided surgery. The final prosthodontic consisted in a metal ceramic restoration using CAD/ CAM technology. Key words:Oral rehabilitation, oral cancer, head and neck radiotherapy, oral oncology.
Context as a Provider of Key Resources for Succession: A Case Study of Sustainable Family Firms
2019
[EN] Although succession is the single most important issue in family-owned businesses (FOBs), there is scarce comprehensive and integrative analysis of the context (i.e., the social, organizational, and normative setting) where succession events occur. Research usually focuses on the success or failure of succession processes, instead of the risks faced by FOBs during succession. The succession process takes time and multiple actors are involved. Therefore, succession is influenced by uncertainty and unforeseen events. This study addresses the aforementioned gap in the literature by investigating how context can reduce the risk of failure in succession. Based on organizational change theor…
Catalanes, valencianos y mallorquines en la Ortografía de la lengua castellana (1831) de J. del Castillo y Mayone
2019
Análisis de la obra Ortografía de la lengua castellana para uso de toda clase de personas: con reglas particulares para los catalanes, valencianos y mallorquines deducidas de su propio idioma y observaciones sobre los escollos en que peligran y pueden evitar, en la Imprenta de Corchs, Barcelona, 1831 de Joaquín del Castillo y Mayone. Es una obra general sobre la ortografía de la lengua castellana dirigida y arreglada especialmente para los catalanohablantes, lo que supone una novedad en el panorama de las ortografías peninsulares de la primera mitad del siglo XIX. Este trabajo presenta todas las características de la ortografía contrastiva que contiene, los aspectos historiográficos e ideol…
Activation of the p38MAPK cascade is associated with upregulation of TNF alpha receptors in the spinal motor neurons of mouse models of familial ALS.
2005
Phosphorylated p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38MAPK), but not activated c-jun-N-terminal kinase (JNK), increases in the motor neurons of transgenic mice overexpressing ALS-linked SOD1 mutants at different stages of the disease. This effect is associated with a selective increase of phosphorylated MKK3-6, MKK4 and ASK1 and a concomitant upregulation of the TNFalpha receptors (TNFR1 and TNFR2), but not IL1beta and Fas receptors. Activation of both p38 MAPK and JNK occurs in the activated microglial cells of SOD1 mutant mice at the advanced stage of the disease; however, this effect is not accompanied by the concomitant activation of the upstream kinases ASK1 and MKK3,4,6, while both …
