"Nodier and sadism: the "monstrous turpitudes" of Smarra"
2021
Nodier studies have scarcely examined the relationship between Nodier and Sade, the first one having apparently done everything to lessen his interest in the sulphurous work of the marquis. However, little is known, Nodier is the inventor, or the propagator of the word “sadism” in the French language, which appeared for the first time in 1834, in the 8th edition of the "Dictionnaire Universel" by Boiste, that, precisely, revised, amended and largely amplified by Nodier. The objective of this article is to shed light on this immorality-stricken relationship between a writer concerned about his reputation and in search of respectability (Nodier was elected to the Académie française in 1833, a…
The sleep of (scientific) reason produces (literary) monsters. : or, how science and literature shake hands
2016
La rao il·lustrada i la imaginacio romantica van ser vistes com dues maneres oposades de concebre l’art i la vida. Ara be, amb la perspectiva que ens atorga la historia, sembla dificil entendre l’una sense l’altra. Com si els malsons de la ciencia no fossin en el fons altra cosa que l’aliment dels monstres romantics. Aquest article analitza l’evolucio de la narrativa fantastica i el naixement de la narrativa cientifica en el segle xix, i l’enfrontament entre allo racional i allo sobrenatural.
Sedimentological and deformational criteria for discriminating subglaciofluvial deposits from subaqueous ice-contact fan deposits: A Pleistocene exam…
2014
A pit located near Ballyhorsey, 28 km south of Dublin (eastern Ireland), displays subglacially deposited glaciofluvial sediments passing upwards into proglacial subaqueous ice-contact fan deposits. The coexistence of these two different depositional environments at the same location will help with differentiation between two very similar and easily confused glacial lithofacies. The lowermost sediments show aggrading subglacial deposits indicating a constrained accommodation space, mainly controlled by the position of an overlying ice roof during ice-bed decoupling. These sediments are characterized by vertically stacked tills with large lenses of tabular to channelized sorted sediments. The…
Female-released sex pheromones mediating courtship behavior in Lysiphlebus testaceipes males
2013
Ethological aspects and chemical communication at close-range between the sexes of Lysiphlebus testaceipes Cresson (Hymenoptera: Braconidae) have been investigated through behavioral bioassays and chemical analysis. The attractiveness toward males of whole-body extracts of females and males in hexane and acetone was evaluated, adopting male fanning behavior as a key behavioral component. Also, the activity of polar and nonpolar fraction of female-body extract in hexane obtained using solid-phase extraction technique was investigated. In order to identify cuticular compounds, male and female whole-body extracts with hexane and acetone were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. Th…

LE EMISSIONI DI GAS CLIMALTERANTI DAI SISTEMI MBR
2016
La salvaguardia dell’ambiente pone ad oggi delle nuove sfide nei confronti dei cambiamenti climatici. Invero, il fenomeno del climate change, i cui principali effetti portano ad un innalzamento delle temperature a seguito del rilascio di emissioni di gas climalteranti (i.e., anidride carbonica, CO2; metano, CH4; protossido di azoto, N2O), richiede degli interventi a breve, medio e lungo termine per limitare i sempre più crescenti danni ambientali. Gli impianti di depurazione contribuiscono anch’essi al fenomeno del climate change attraverso le emissioni di gas climalteranti (Global Water Research Coalition – GWRC, 2011; Law et al., 2012; Zhan et al., 2017).
