Le motif du médecin tyran de Platon à Galien
2014
At various points in Method of medicine and in a passage in the Commentary on the Hippocratic Epidemics Galen takes up the image of the tyrant doctor employed by Plato in the famous passage in the Laws in which, to illustrate the role of the proem to the law, he introduces the contrast between doctors of freemen and doctors of slaves (Leg. IV 719e 8-720e 5) : this is an unexplored chapter of Galen’s Platonism.
Marks and Epigraphs on Iberian Amphorae. II
2015
Se presenta la segunda parte del repertorio de marcas y epígrafes sobre ánforas ibéricas, con la intención de completar un fenómeno heredero del mundo púnico. Se pretende ir acotando el/los posible/s significado/s de tales marcas, su distribución territorial y su marco cronológico. Las marcas incisas son, en esta ocasión, más numerosas que las impresas y se ha detectado una nueva técnica postcocción (con pintura y carbón) restringida al noreste peninsular. This paper is the second part of the repertoire of marks and epigraphs on Iberian amphorae. The goal is to complete this work, which is related to the Punic world, and know the possible meanings of such marks, their geographical distribut…
Las ánforas de Brindisi en Hispania Citerior. Pautas de distribución y consumo
2017
La presencia del ejército romano republicano en la Hispania Citerior ha sido difícil de reconocer en el pasado debido al error en la interpretación de algunos yacimientos y la falta de investigación sobre el tema. En los últimos años, se han realizado nuevas investigaciones sobre yacimientos romanos republicanos identificando pequeñas fortificaciones militares y asentamientos civiles itálicos relacionados con el ejército. Uno de los fósiles directores presentes en todos estos yacimientos es la cerámica itálica tanto fina como común y las ánforas. Precisamente, las ánforas de la Apulia constituyen uno de los fósiles directores poco estudiados; este artículo pretende llenar este vacío y mostr…
Late Republican Amphora Trade in Malaca: Imports from Beatas Street at the Corner of Ramón Franquelo (Málaga, Spain)
2018
Se presenta un estudio tipológico, ceramológico y cuantitativo del conjunto anfórico procedente de la intervención realizada en la calle Beatas-esquina Ramón Franquelo en 1997. El yacimiento posee evidencias de ocupación durante el Alto y Bajo Imperio, pero sin duda, destaca la fase tardopúnica o romano-republicana, en la que junto a la presencia de un espacio funerario, se registraron depósitos con una gran cantidad de material anfórico, que hemos datado en torno al segundo cuarto del s. I a.C. Es resaltable la importante presencia de importaciones vinarias itálicas, pero también una abundante llegada de aceite de fuera de la península ibérica, como testimonian las ánforas Africanas Antigu…
Taking Aim and Hitting the Target. Some Remarks on the Aristotelian Notion of eustoichia
2018
L’articolo è dedicato alla nozione aristotelica di eustochia (la capacità di fare buone congetture), nella convinzione che essa possa contribuire al ripensamento della nostra costitutiva precarietà. Diversamente da una lettura tradizionale che vede Aristotele principalmente come il filosofo del ragionamento deduttivo, l’articolo sostiene invece l’importanza di questa capacità cognitiva nel pensiero aristotelico. Con questo scopo, vengono analizzati i tre principali contesti in cui Aristotele fa riferimento all’eustochia: la costruzione del sillogismo (APo, 89b 10), il raggiungimento della virtù (EN, 1106b 16) e la creazione di metafore ((Rh. 1412a 13). Nonostante le evidenti differenze, que…
A Dirichlet problem for the Laplace operator in a domain with a small hole close to the boundary
2016
We study the Dirichlet problem in a domain with a small hole close to the boundary. To do so, for each pair $\boldsymbol\varepsilon = (\varepsilon_1, \varepsilon_2 )$ of positive parameters, we consider a perforated domain $\Omega_{\boldsymbol\varepsilon}$ obtained by making a small hole of size $\varepsilon_1 \varepsilon_2 $ in an open regular subset $\Omega$ of $\mathbb{R}^n$ at distance $\varepsilon_1$ from the boundary $\partial\Omega$. As $\varepsilon_1 \to 0$, the perforation shrinks to a point and, at the same time, approaches the boundary. When $\boldsymbol\varepsilon \to (0,0)$, the size of the hole shrinks at a faster rate than its approach to the boundary. We denote by $u_{\bolds…
Fruit Colour Preferences of Redwings (Turdus iliacus): Experiments with Hand-Raised Juveniles and Wild-Caught Adults
2004
Certain fruit colours and their contrast with the background coloration are suggested to attract frugivorous birds. To test the attractiveness of different colours, we performed three experiments in laboratory with controlled light conditions. In the first two experiments, we studied the fruit colour preferences of naive juvenile redwings. In the third experiment, we continued to investigate whether the contrast of the fruit colour with the background coloration affects the preference of both naive juveniles and experienced adult redwings. In the first experiment, juvenile birds preferred black, UV-blue and red berries, to white ones. In pairwise trials, a new set of juveniles still preferr…
Properties of food loads delivered to nestlings in the pied flycatcher: effects of clutch size manipulation, year, and sex.
1998
Experimental manipulation of the number of altricial offspring is supposed to modify parental expenditure in birds. In addition to the observed increase in parental feeding rate, it is also possible that the choice of prey or the size of load may change with the changing demand for food. Sexual differences in the provisioning response are also expected, on the basis of earlier studies. We examined the effect of brood size manipulation on choice of prey brought to nestlings and load size in the pied flycatcher. The composition and size of loads differed between years, possibly depending on varying availability of different prey types. Males responded to brood size enlargement by gathering he…
Sexual cannibalism in Nephila plumipes as a consequence of female life history strategies
2002
The evolution of sexual cannibalism has been modelled as both an adaptive and nonadaptive female strategy. Recent evidence from several species suggests a connection between female foraging and sexual cannibalism, but the precise benefits for females have remained obscure. Here, we investigate the difference between cannibalistic and noncannibalistic female Nephila plumipes by removing the potential nutritional benefit of cannibalism. Courting and mating males that were killed by a female were immediately removed so that the female could not consume them. Nevertheless, cannibalistic females gained more mass from maturation to oviposition and produced larger first clutches than noncannibalis…
