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 …
Nerva nell'Epitome de Caesaribus
2007
L’ampio e documentato capitolo che l’Epitome de Caesaribus dedica al breve impero di Nerva mette in luce l'interesse dell’anonimo autore per diversi aspetti del periodo. In particolare evidenza sono i dati originali che l’Epitome apporta in materia di politica fiscale e di liberalitas imperiale, l’accurata descrizione di specifici eventi in cui si segnala l’ostilità dello storico nei confronti dei milites che agiscono con violenza e disprezzo della volontà imperiale, e la rappresentazione di personaggi che hanno avuto relazione con l’ambiente di corte. Emerge così il peculiare giudizio dello storico su Nerva: l’epitomatore è sfuggito al rischio di appiattimento indotto dalla preponderante f…
Yields of neutron-rich rubidium and cesium isotopes from fast-neutron induced fission of 238U, obtained by studying their release from a thick ISOL t…
2006
Abstract In the framework of the EURISOL project, the production of neutron-rich isotopes of rubidium and cesium has been studied. The intensities of mass-separated beams of rubidium and cesium isotopes generated from a thick 238 UC x target connected to a surface ionizer have been measured. The release properties of 140 Cs and 91 Rb have been investigated. The obtained results allowed us to determine the relative fission yields of rubidium and cesium isotopes with high accuracy.
Production of neutron-rich surface-ionized nuclides at PARRNe
2002
Yields of neutron-rich isotopes produced by fast neutron induced fission of 238 U were measured at the ISOL set-up Production dAtomes Radioactifs Riches en Neutrons. A surface ion source was used to ionize selectively elements with low ionization potentials. In order to observe also the most n-rich isotopes, the identification was achieved by a combined measurement of b- and c-rays and b-delayed neutrons. The flux of fast neutrons inducing fission was generated by a 1 lA beam of 26 MeV deuterons stopped in a graphite converter. The target was a standard ISOLDE type 238 UC
Designing Outcome-Based Performance Management Systems to Assess Policies Impacting on Caesarean Section Rate: An Analysis of the Sicilian Maternity …
2017
The reduction in Caesarean sections (CSs) is widely considered a priority in the public decision makers agenda. Though the World Health Organisation has strongly encouraged countries to implement policies to reduce CSs to 10–15%, after almost thirty years this goal appears still far from its achievement. The literature depicts CS as a multifaceted phenomenon whose causes involve different factors, ranging from the patient sphere to the health care level of services provided, and the societal preference of CS practice. Policy makers aiming to standardise cares and to reduce CSs often implement maternity pathways (MP). By investigating the MP introduced in the Sicilian region, the authors hig…
Half-lives, neutron emission probabilities and fission yields of neutron-rich rubidium isotopes in the mass regionA=96 toA=100
1979
Neutron-rich rubidium isotopes were produced by thermal-neutron induced fission of235U and were isolated by surface ionization and mass separation. The new isotope (51 ±17) ms100Rb was identified. The half-lives of the rubidium isotopes with mass numberA=96 toA=100 were measured using neutron multiscaling or gamma multispectrum analysis. Measurements of the delayed-neutron emission probabilityP n of99Rb and of the fission yields of97Rb,98Rb, and99Rb were performed.
Quantum potero voce contendam. La pro Ligario di Cicerone nel giudizio di Quintiliano
2019
The paper analyses one of the last voices of the Ciceronian oratory, the Pro Ligario. After a reconstruction of the context in which the oration was produced, the attention is focused on the reception of the text by Quintilian, who on several occasions in the Institutio oratoria shows particular interest for the multiple problems connected to it, identifying the peculiar characteristics.
Le tre vite di un’effigie onoraria: usi e abusi di un ritratto virile dall’agorà/foro di Alesa (Sicilia)
2021
L’articolo esamina una testa maschile dall’agorà/ foro di Alesa, analizzando le tracce che ne testimoniano tre fasi di vita, consentendo di cogliere dinamiche e meccanismi della pratica onoraria e dei processi inversi di oblio o cancellazione della memoria. In origine la testa faceva parte con ogni probabilità di una statua augustea togata velato capite; nella sua seconda vita, viene trasformata in un ritratto di giovane principe della prima età costantiniana (probabilmente Licinio II, cui si riferisce anche una dedica alesina); nella fase finale, essa subisce abuso e viene sfregiata negli organi sensoriali. Anche abbattuta e vandalizzata, l’opera costituisce una presenza attiva nel centro …
La Sicilia, Panormo e la riconquista giustinianea
2021
L'analisi delle testimonianze storiografiche su Palermo nel periodo compreso fra V e VI secolo, con particolare riguardo a Procopio di Cesarea, fanno emergere il peculiare ruolo della città nell'ambito della storia della Sicilia nel contesto mediterraneo e ne mettono in evidenza il suo ruolo strategico nelle vicende belliche e nelle relazioni diplomatiche fra Vandali, Goti e riconquista giustinianea The analysis of the historiographical evidence on Palermo in the period between the fifth and sixth centuries, with particular regard to Procopius of Caesarea, brings out the peculiar role of the city in the history of Sicily in the Mediterranean context and highlights its role strategic in wart…
APPROPRIATENESS OF CESAREAN SECTION IN A HOSPITAL OF SICILY (ITALY): STATISTIC EVIDENCES AND MEDIC LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS
2014
ntroduction: Authors have carried out a survey to evaluate the appropriateness of the caesarean deliveries performed in a hospital of Sicily (Italy) during 2013. The choices of these surgeries have been compared with italian and sicilian guidelines. Materials: EpiInfo 7.1.4 software (CDC - Atlanta - USA) was used to perform the statistical data analysis (chi-square test). Results: We analyzed a total of 818 medical records related to 50.61% of spontaneous deliveries, :06% induced labor, and 46.33% of cesarean deliveries. Medical records showed that in 32.7% the caesarean section were justified by emergency conditions, whereas in 15.89% the choice was not quite justified according to guideli…
