Dzieje organów w kościele parafialnym w Niemczy
2018
Pierwsze wzmianki o organach w kościele parafialnym w Niemczy pochodzą z przełomu XVI i XVII wieku. W latach 1597–1598 niewielki instrument wybudował Abraham Grasse. W 1617 roku ten sam organmistrz postawił nowe organy, liczące sześć głosów w manuale i trzy w pedale. Strawił je pożar w 1633 roku. W 1648 roku do odbudowanego kościoła zakupiono używany pozytyw. W 1725 roku świątynia wzbogaciła się o 20-głosowe organy wybudowane przez Ignatzego Mentzla. Służyły one parafii do 1852 roku, wówczas zamknięto, a następnie rozebrano kościół. Organy znajdujące się w obecnej świątyni pochodzą z 1866 roku i są dziełem Gottfrieda Riemera z Brzegu. Miały pierwotnie 18 głosów i mechaniczną trakturę rejest…
L'incesto della parola. Lingua e scrittura in Silvana Grasso
2009
Marina Castiglione in questo saggio – il primo interamente dedicato a Silvana Grasso, importante voce della letteratura contemporanea – mette in luce come i romanzi dell’autrice siciliana si presentino mutuamente intellegibili alla luce di un materiale linguistico e stilistico (oltre che tematico) che rimbalza dall’uno all’altro anche a notevoli distanze temporali. L’esposizione consente di far emergere, ai diversi livelli della scrittura, costanti, modifiche e variabili che danno all’intero corpus unitarietà nelle intenzioni e una assoluta inscindibilità tra lingua e fabula. Lingua e identità sono, infatti, una bussola certa nell’orizzonte frastagliato delle realtà rappresentate. Il ricors…
Francesco La Grassa. Disegno e Architettura
2022
Francesco La Grassa fu un architetto e ingegnere siciliano che operò nella prima parte del Novecento tra la Sicilia e Roma: protagonista, sebbene ‘minore’, di una florida stagione architettonica segnata dalla collaborazione con una committenza colta e illuminata, fu uno degli allievi più fedeli di Ernesto Basile. Questo studio non ha interessato l'intera opera del progettista, ma soltanto le architetture non realizzate e quelle scomparse in seguito ad atti di demolizione. Tale selezione di progetti è stata analizzata attraverso un metodo d'indagine basato sull'applicazione degli strumenti della Scienza della Rappresentazione, quali Disegno, Rilievo, Analisi grafica, Modellazione tridimensio…
Modeling the insect mushroom bodies: application to a delayed match-to-sample task.
2013
Despite their small brains, insects show advanced capabilities in learning and task solving. Flies, honeybees and ants are becoming a reference point in neuroscience and a main source of inspiration for autonomous robot design issues and control algorithms. In particular, honeybees demonstrate to be able to autonomously abstract complex associations and apply them in tasks involving different sensory modalities within the insect brain. Mushroom Bodies (MBs) are worthy of primary attention for understanding memory and learning functions in insects. In fact, even if their main role regards olfactory conditioning, they are involved in many behavioral achievements and learning capabilities, as …
Avocado “born in Sicily”, gli agricoltori scommettono su questa produzione
2021
In questo lavoro è stato possibile mettere a confronto la qualità dei frutti di avocado Born in Sicily e di quelli Imported. I risultati ottenuti evidenziano per i frutti raccolti in Sicilia valori più elevati del contenuto di sostanza grassa, di alcune vitamine e minerali rispetto a quelli importati, indicando nell’avocado isolano un frutto ricco di componenti dall’alto valore nutrizionale.
Indagine fitosociologica sulle praterie a Brachypodium retusum (Pers.) Beauv. della Sardegna.
2005
The grasslands characterized by the dominance of Brachypodium retusum occurring in Sardinia are examined. These communities, belonging to the Thero-Brachypodion ramosi alliance (Lygeo-Stipetea class), are quite widespread in the Island, where they usually grow on carbonate substrata from the sea level up to 1300 m of altitude. On the basis of several phytosociological relevés, it has been possible to recognize six associations well-differentiated from the floristic, ecological and syndynamic point of view. The autonomy of these associations is also supported by a numerical multivariate analysis based on quantitative data (dendrogram and P.C.A.). The associations surveyed are the following: …
Proposals for improvement of Annex I of Directive 92/43/ EEC: Central Italy
2021
The main purpose of the 92/43/EEC Habitats Directive is to contribute to the conservation of biodiversity, understood as habitat types and species of the flora and fauna of the European Union. To achieve this goal, natural and semi-natural biodiversity as a whole must be recognized and included in its annexes. As for the conservation of biotopes, named habitat types, Italy is unfortunately lacking as it the Annex I does not include important ecosystems that are typical of its territory, rare for biogeographical reasons or threatened. Therefore, the opportunity to identify a first list of significant habitats for central Italy is discussed here. For each of the new proposed types (new habita…
Total and Subtypes of Dietary Fat Intake and its Association with Components of the Metabolic Syndrome in a Mediterranean Population at High Cardiova…
2019
Background: The effect of dietary fat intake on the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and in turn on cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains unclear in individuals at high CVD risk. Objective: To assess the association between fat intake and MetS components in an adult Mediterranean population at high CVD risk. Design: Baseline assessment of nutritional adequacy in participants (n = 6560, men and women, 55&ndash
Floristic and phytosociological features of the Brachypodium rupestre communities in Italy
2018
The pale green dense Tor-grass (Brachypodium rupestre) tufts are a quite distinctive aspect of the Italian grassland pattern of the colline and submontane belts. B. rupestre is used to be found in secondary grasslands both in natural environments and in some aspects of the post-coltural environments such as forest clearances, abandoned terraced and extensive pastures. In northern Italy (Alps, Prealps and northern Apennines) B. rupestre has only sporadically been considered in the grasslands syntaxonomic frameworks. On the contrary it occurs in those regarding the central Italy where several semi-natural and post-coltural grassland associations (e.g. Polygalo flavescentis-Brachypodietum, Gal…
