Friend or foe? : attitudes to and beliefs about English in Finland expressed by Finnish as a second language learners
2011
Tutkin pro gradu -työssäni S2-oppijoiden käsityksiä englannin kielen käytöstä ja asemasta Suomessa. Aiemmat tutkimukset englannin kielen käytöstä ja asemasta Suomessa ovat keskittyneet suomalaisten äidinkielenpuhujien käsityksiin. Tämän tutkielman tarkoituksena on selvittää minkälaisia käsityksiä S2-oppijoilla on englannin käytöstä ja asemasta Suomessa sekä heidän omassa elämässään että yleisemmällä tasolla. Lisäksi tutkin S2-oppijoiden asenteita englannin kieltä kohtaan. Tutkimus pyrkii samalla nostamaan esiin S2-oppijoiden käsityksiä englannin kielen mahdollisesta vaikutuksesta suomen kieleen sekä S2-oppimiseen ja -opettamiseen. Tutkimuksen aineisto kostuu sekä kirjallisesta että suullise…
Dal Virgilio russo al Tolstoj rosso, e ritorno: Epopea, nazione e senso del tempo nella teoria letteraria sovietica.
2006
Nella teoria letteraria sovietica sono continui gli appelli alla creazione di un epos: negli anni Venti, però, la richiesta è di una nuova forma epica, mentre a stalinismo affermato si intende che il modello sia il "Romanzo epico" sul modello tolstoiano. Questo cambio di accento può essere collegato con il passaggio ideologico dall'internazionalismo rivoluzionario al nazionalismo granderusso.
Strengthening of steel-reinforced concrete structural elements by externally bonded FRP sheets and evaluation of their load carrying capacity to face…
2014
The paper has proposed a limit analysis procedure for a preliminary design of RC elements strengthened by externally bonded FRP sheets. The procedure, based on a multi-yield-criteria limit analysis approach, has led to a reliable prediction of peak loads and failure modes of the analyzed elements (slabs) by simultaneously considering the limit state of the constituent materials, so resulting very useful in many applications of engineering interest. The attention has been focused on hospital applications in which increment of service loads or realization of openings can weaken some structural elements that have been strengthened by FRP sheets.
L'ingegner Zamjatin e la rivolta della fantasia
2012
Evgenii Zamiatin worked as an engineer while pursuing his literary career; in the eyes of his contemporaries, this was one relevant trait of his image. His masterpiece, the novel “We”, however, depicts a deeply pessimistic picture of an over-rational future society. This depiction contains, moreover, a number of attributes that can be traced back to Zamiatin's satirical picture of England in his novella “The Islanders”. Was this meant to be a warning against the dangers of technology, or against the developments of the bolshevik westernizing ideology? Was this engineer an enemy of rational thinking? The language of mathematics plays a relevant role in the novel's figural system; maybe, part…
"Alliance Portfolio Diversity, Organizational Slack, and Firm Financial Performance"
2014
We investigate how the availability of slack influences a firm’s ability to deal with alliance portfolio diversity. Alliances with diverse partners provide access to a broader pool of complementary...
3 He/4He Signature of Magmatic Fluids from Telica (Nicaragua) and Baru (Panama) Volcanoes, Central American Volcanic Arc
2022
Constraining the magmatic 3He/4He signature of fluids degassed from a magmatic system is crucial for making inferences on its mantle source. This is especially important in arc volcanism, where variations in the composition of the wedge potentially induced by slab sediment fluids must be distinguished from the effects of magma differentiation, degassing, and crustal contamination. The study of fluid inclusions (FIs) trapped in minerals of volcanic rocks is becoming an increasingly used methodology in geochemical studies that integrates the classical study of volcanic and geothermal fluids. Here, we report on the first noble gas (He, Ne, Ar) concentrations and isotopic ratios of FI in olivin…

«L’avvocato della totalità»: Claudio Magris su Friedrich Hebbel
2019
Some of the key elements of Claudio Magris’ work as an academic surface in his writings on Friedrich Hebbel: the Danubian space, Trieste, the intersection between literature and law, totality, the relationship between literary theory and practice, revisionism of classics, the recovery of historicism as a hermeneutical tool, the legacy of György Lukacs and Scipio Slataper. In Danubio (1989) and in “Davanti alla legge” (2009), Magris discusses Hebbel’s Agnes Bernauer (1852) in terms of the power relations between the individual and the State, as a drama where history and chance work silently against the characters. The text captures Magris’ attention by virtue of Hebbel’s attempt to synthesiz…
La amistad y el amor en el epistolario de Séneca
2008
Joaquin.Beltran@uv.es El motivo por el que nos hemos decidido a estudiar en un mismo trabajo la amistad y el amor no es otro que histórico, por la conocida ambigüedad en la que se movían los primitivos filósofos griegos y, además, para llegar a saber la posición concreta de Séneca. Ello nos ha llevado a intentar codificar su pensamiento sobre la amistad y el amor en relación, sobre todo, con Aristóteles y Cicerón. Así, hemos intentado demostrar que Séneca ha unido a los conceptos de amistad e incluso amor otras ideas nuevas, que le dan un aire diferente, como la de solidaridad, asociación o sociedad, y que nos inducen a pensar en una definición afirmativa y muy positiva de la amistad frente…
Recolonization after habitat restoration leads to decreased genetic variation in populations of a terrestrial orchid.
2012
Colonization is crucial to habitat restoration projects that rely on the spontaneous regeneration of the original vegetation. However, as a previously declining plant species spreads again, the likelihood of founder effects increases through recurrent population founding and associated serial bottlenecks. We related Amplified Fragment Length Polymorphism markers genetic variation and fitness to colonization history for all extant populations of the outcrossing terrestrial orchid Dactylorhiza incarnata in an isolated coastal dune complex. Around 1970, D. incarnata suffered a severe bottleneck yet ultimately persisted and gradually spread throughout the spatially segregated dune slacks, aided…
