Borgese, Jovine e Silone prefatori per il Touring Club Italiano
2014
Si mettono a sistema tre brevi testi di tipo etnogeografico con cui si sono cimentati Silone, Jovine e Borgese negli anni Trenta-Quaranta del Novecento, concettualizzando e testualizzando i caratteri più peculiari della propria regione di appartenenza. Prenderò in esame la prefazione che Borgese scrisse per Sicilia (Touring Club Italiano, 1933) e le due prefazioni che Silone e Jovine scrissero per Abruzzo e Molise, (Touring Club Italiano, 1948). Mi ripropongo di innestare le ragioni di questi testi nel dibattito sui processi di “orientalizzazione” del Mezzogiorno italiano, intendendo per orientalizzazione i percorsi culturali di tra- sformazione in categoria metastorica e stereotipata dell'…
Enseñar estrategias de afrontamiento a padres de niños con cáncer a través de un cortometraje
2010
Este trabajo describe la utilidad de un cortometraje para enseñar estrategias de afrontamiento positivas a los padres de hijos con cáncer. Para la realización del cortometraje se han utilizado los resultados de un trabajo de investigación sobre las estrategias de afrontamiento que utilizan los padres. Los resultados se extrajeron del análisis del discurso de los padres que participaron en un grupo de autoayuda durante ocho sesiones. El cortometraje ha sido evaluado por los psicólogos de todas las asociaciones de padres que forman parte de la Federación de padres de niños enfermos de cáncer. Asimismo, se ha experimentado en sesiones grupales realizadas en las sedes de ASPANION (Asociación de…
Front Cover: Electrochemical Synthesis of Fluorinated Orthoesters from 1,3‐Benzodioxoles (ChemistryOpen 9/2019)
2019
The Front Cover shows the robustness achieved by the installation of fluorinated alcohols on 1,3‐benzodioxoles, which appears like the shield of a knight protecting the obtained orthoesters against acids and bases. The simple protocol allows access to interesting compounds, whose lipophilicity is tremendously increased by the incorporation of fluorinated groups. This makes it possible to adjust the physicochemical properties of the biologically active 1,3‐benzodioxole motif. The surprisingly high stability against acids and bases gives rise to subsequent functionalizations or direct application in medicinal or agrochemistry. More information can be found in the Communication by J. L. Röckl …
Cinema audiences reproducibly vary the chemical composition of air during films, by broadcasting scene specific emissions on breath
2016
AbstractHuman beings continuously emit chemicals into the air by breath and through the skin. In order to determine whether these emissions vary predictably in response to audiovisual stimuli, we have continuously monitored carbon dioxide and over one hundred volatile organic compounds in a cinema. It was found that many airborne chemicals in cinema air varied distinctively and reproducibly with time for a particular film, even in different screenings to different audiences. Application of scene labels and advanced data mining methods revealed that specific film events, namely “suspense” or “comedy” caused audiences to change their emission of specific chemicals. These event-type synchronou…
Dimensional and Discrete Emotional Reactivity in Alzheimer’s Disease: Film Clips as a Research Tool in Dementia
2021
Background: No studies have been conducted to date on the dimensional and discrete classification of emotions to study the emotional reactivity of older adults with Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Additionally, the presentation of film clips with affective content is currently one of the most effective and widely used Mood Induction Procedures (MIPS). However, it has been scarcely used in AD patients. Objective: Based on the dimensional and discrete models of emotion, this study examines the emotional reactivity of older adults with AD, using a popular set of film clips to induce emotions. Methods: We compared the responses of older adults aged over 65-years with mild to moderate AD (n = 15) and …
Las culturas de la emigración española: reflejos audiovisuales de la clase obrera
2019
[spa] El objetivo del presente artículo es estudiar la representación de la emigración española hacia Europa, colocando el acento en su pertenencia a la clase obrera. Por ello, consideraremos films rodados en el contexto franquista, propuestas realizadas al margen de la industria o militantes, películas producidas por los países de acogida o audiovisuales dirigidos por personas que hayan vivido la experiencia de la emigración (primera y segunda generación). Todas estas distintas variables nos permitirán conocer y estudiar la complejidad que entraña abordar este tema y a su vez también analizaremos la relevancia que se concede en estos títulos a la condición obrera. Asimismo, valoraremos la …
Enhanced query processing for NoSQL crowdsourcing systems
2014
In this paper, we provide a novel approach for effectively and efficiently support query processing tasks in novel NoSQL crowdsourcing systems. The idea of our method is to exploit the social knowledge available from reviews about products of any kind, freely provided by customers through specialized web sites. We thus define a NoSQL database system for large collections of product reviews, where queries can be expressed in terms of natural language sentences whose answers are modeled as lists of products ranked based on the relevance of reviews w.r.t. the natural language sentences. The best ranked products in the result list can be seen as the best hints for the user based on crowd opinio…
Patient Safety Through the Analysis of «Grey’s Anatomy»; Season 6, Episode 6. I Saw What I Saw
2016
Patient safety constitutes a public health problem due to the repercussions that has in the care process and in the patients. The viewing of Grey’s Anatomy Episode “I saw what I saw” allows to value the importance of searching for the causes of an error and, at the same time, allows to detect commonplace situations (stress, organization, personal and ambient factors) that increase the possibility of errors in class. The process enables students to realize the importance not only of personal aspects, but of multiple possible causes of errors and the importance of health planning.
La Balia (1999). Una visión de las nodrizas en los albores del Siglo XX
2012
[ES] La película La Balia (1999) nos permite reflexionar sobre la importancia histórica de la figura de las nodrizas en el período entre los siglos XIX y XX. Una figura normalizada en la época y que permitió por una parte a las mujeres donantes tener un papel fundamental en el mantenimiento de sus familias, y por la otra permitió la superviviencia de niños gracias a la alimentación con leche materna. [EN] The film La Balia/ The Nanny (1999) allows us to reflect on the historical significance of the figure of the wet nurses in the period between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. A standardized set the time and allowed for some women donors have a key role in the maintenance of their fa…
Infección controlada. Maneras de representar el estado de excepción en el cine de pandemias
2018
En el presente escrito se muestra cómo el cine de las décadas posmodernistas ha plasmado un estado político singular, el de excepción, vinculado en estas películas a la propagación de una pandemia. Como arte popular, el cine ha sido una herramienta potentísima para crear imaginarios en la sociedad del capitalismo avanzado y para influir en lo que los ciudadanos estimen probable de una situación dada. El motivo de la declaración de emergencia, control militar y estado de excepción se ha convertido durante esas décadas en uno de los más utilizados, especialmente en los blockbusters de género fantástico. In this paper it’s argued how the movies from the postmodernist decades have shown a singu…
