Pompei all'opera: iconografie romane nella Jone di Errico Petrella

2019

All'interno degli studi dedicati alla storia della tradizione classica, non tutti i possibili campi di ricerca sono stati completamente esplorati. Un argomento scarsamente messo in evidenza è lo scenario delle opere che mettono in scena il mondo greco-romano. Tra le opere di ambientazione classica composte nel corso del XIX secolo, uno dei maggiori successi, anche se oggi quasi dimenticato, fu Jone di Errico Petrella (1813-1877). Il libretto di quest'opera (eseguita per la prima volta a Milano, al Teatro alla Scala, nel 1858) era stato tratto dal celebre romanzo The Last Days of Pompeii di Edward Bulwer-Lytton (1834). Within the studies dedicated to the history of the classical tradition, n…

Tra mito e rito: aspetti della cultura figurativa imerese nel tardo V secolo a.C.

2015

This study revisiting finds with figural decoration from early excavations of the residential area of the town of Himera has sparked a new approach to reconstructing the figural repertoire, mythographic heritage and spectrum of ritual and sacred practices wihch must have characterised this colonial city before its destruction at the end of the 5th century B.C. The author has studied, in particular, various clay arulae and the figural decoration on vases painted by the Himera Painter, which were used in the ritual life of the domestic quarters of the town and whose subject matter appears to be derived exclusively from the sagas of Thessaly and Boeotia. The main theme of the illustrated myths…

Integrated prototyping and rendering system for the display of ceramic finds

2017

The project, carried out in collaboration between the Department of Architecture of Palermo and the Archaeological Museum Antonino Salinas of Palermo, proposes a system of integration and reconstruction of ceramic artefacts, using modeling, 3D printing and rendering processes for an integrated museum exhibition system, which the viewers can observe the fragment nearing the re-reconstructed fragment that reconstructs the original morphology and an interactive digital model in which the viewers can also observe the metric aspect and, where present, the decorative apparatus.

On some inequalities for the identric, logarithmic and related means

2015

We offer new proofs, refinements as well as new results related to classical means of two variables, including the identric and logarithmic means.

Toward a formalization of a two traders market with information exchange

2014

This paper shows that Hamiltonians and operators can also be put to good use even in contexts which are not purely physics based. Consider the world of finance. The work presented here {models a two traders system with information exchange with the help of four fundamental operators: cash and share operators; a portfolio operator and an operator reflecting the loss of information. An information Hamiltonian is considered and an additional Hamiltonian is presented which reflects the dynamics of selling/buying shares between traders. An important result of the paper is that when the information Hamiltonian is zero, portfolio operators commute with the Hamiltonian and this suggests that the dy…

"Tea for two": the Archive of the Italian Latinity of the Middle Ages meets the CLARIN infrastructure

2020

This paper aims at showing how integrating the Archive of the Italian Latinity of the Middle Ages (ALIM) into the ILC4CLARIN repository can provide mutual benefits. Making ALIM available to a large community of scholars and researchers, on the one side, represents the first step to reduce the lack of resources for Medieval Latin in CLARIN and, on the other side, constitutes an unprecedented contribution to not only linguistic investigations, but also to the studies of the culture and science at the basis of the Western European society. The paper describes the adopted approach aiming to keep intact the structure of the archive and its metadata, which are both accurately mirrored into the IL…

Functional analysis of the classical, alternative, and MBL pathways of the complement system: standardization and validation of a simple ELISA.

2004

Primary defence against invading microorganisms depends on a functional innate immune system and the complement system plays a major role in such immunity. Deficiencies in one of the components of the complement system can cause severe and recurrent infections, systemic diseases, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and renal disease. Screening for complement deficiencies in the classical or alternative complement pathways has mainly been performed by haemolytic assays. Here, we describe a simple ELISA-based format for the evaluation of three pathways of complement activation. The assays are based on specific coatings for each pathway in combination with specific buffer systems. We ha…

Still on the beginning of Euripides' Phoenissae and Sophocles' Electra

2015

Eur. Phoen. 1-2 as well as Soph. El. 1 are probably genuine: the story we read in the scholion (1,245,2-5 Schwartz) has been invented by someone who observed that then-deletion does not affect the sense of the passage.
