Revising the negative meaning of chronic pain : A phenomenological study

2014

Objectives Chronic pain may disable the body, depress the mind and ruin the quality of life. The aim of this study was to use the participants’ personal experiences to explore the meaning of the experience of chronic pain and to find successful ways to manage chronic pain. Methods Thirty-four participants with chronic pain were interviewed. The transcribed interviews were analysed using Giorgi’s phenomenological method consisting of four phases: (1) reading the transcriptions several times, (2) discriminating meaning units, (3) collecting meaning units into groups and (4) the synthesis. Results The participants stated that the key to managing chronic pain was to reconsider the individual me…

Acute and chronic pain

2017

Acute or chronic pain is a complex multidimensional neuronal response that draws attention to damaging or potentially damaging situations. A complex cascade of events takes place between the triggering occurrence of irritation and the final result of pain perception. In the beginning the nociceptor transforms the noxious threat into a signal.

Le riforme istituzionali nel Mediterraneo del VI sec. a.C. La nascita di uno spazio politico a Roma e ad Atene

Il proposito principale di questa ricerca è quello di presentare le riforme del VI sec. a.C. in una prospettiva allargata, che potremmo definire “mediterranea”. Questa prospettiva intende far emergere, anche attraverso un confronto fra l’esperienza romana e greca (in particolare Ateniese), influenze e condizionamenti che, in larga parte provenienti dalle sponde orientali del Mediterraneo, influirono notevolmente sulla storia di Roma, contribuendo a determinare la nascita di una sfera propriamente politica per quanto riguarda il governo cittadino. La ricerca attraverso quest’impostazione che potremmo definire comparatistica, intende vagliare similitudini e differenze tra esperienza romana ed…

Marka Tullija Cicerōna runas pret Katilīnu

1939

"Pirmā runa, ko viņš teica senātā, sašutuma pārņemts, kad ieraudzīja tur ieradušos Katilīnu, ir tulkota pilnīgi. Pārējās centos pēc iespējas izsmeļoši atstāstīt. Visām runām pievienoju komentārus, kādus man likās nepieciešami, lai tās ilustrētu, beigās ziņas par Cicerōna dzīvi un darbiem kā arī vēsturiskus datus par Katilīnas sazvērestību." / sastādītājs un komentētājs Verners Ābele/

SPEECH AND SILENCE IN CICERO’S FINAL DAYS

2014

Composed in spring of 46 BC, Cicero’s Brutus emphasizes oratorical silence, in stark contrast with the prominence of the speech act found in the Pro Marcello and first Philippic. Yet in the face of those difficult times and amidst the silence that such times engender, Cicero ironically finds his voice. This paper will demonstrate Cicero’s acute awareness, in his final days, of the need to employ his rediscovered voice in light of eloquence’s changed role in Rome’s new political climate.

Effect of thermal treatments on vitality and physical characteristics of bean, chickpea and lentil

2012

Thermal disinfestation treatments are relatively easy to apply, leave no chemical residues and may have some fungicidal activity. However, temperature and time combinations required to kill insect pests may meet or exceed those that reduce the viability of seeds, nutrients content, shelf life or technological characteristics. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of thermal treatments (different temperature and time combinations) on physical and biological characteristics of bean, chickpea and lentil. Seed samples of common bean, chickpea and lentil were treated at low (12, 24 or 48 h at −18 °C) or high (30, 60 or 90 min at 60 °C) temperature. Seed germination, mean germinatio…

Venerari Contendere Adicere: Roman Emulation, Intergenerational Reciprocity, and the Ancient Idea of Progress

2019

Over the past few decades, the successful emergence of intertextuality, with its careful investigation of the dynamics of imitation, allusion, and emulation, has effectively challenged the Romantic notions of creativity and individual authorship. In the wide-open field left by the postmodern ‘death of the author’, however, the territory of culture as a network of patterns hiding behind the text has often been restricted within the boundaries of literary culture. In this paper, I will attempt to enlarge such a text-centred perspective by highlighting the often neglected connections between family education, intergenerational reciprocity, and aesthetic thought in Roman culture. Indeed, long b…
