Larvicidal Activity of Essential Oils of Five Apiaceae Taxa and Some of Their Main Constituents Against Culex quinquefasciatus.
2018
Apiaceae are aromatic herbs producing essential oils which are used on an industrial scale for various purposes. Notably, Apiaceae essential oils may replace synthetic insecticides keeping most of their efficacy and avoiding environmental pollution and human poisoning. In the present work, we explored the insecticidal potential of the essential oils from five Apiaceae taxa, namely Sison amomum, Echinophora spinosa, Heracleum sphondylium subsp. sphondylium, Heracleum sphondylium subsp. ternatum, and Trachyspemum ammi, as well as their major constituents (sabinene, p-cymene, terpinolene, myristicin, and thymol), against the filariasis vector Culex quinquefasciatus. For the purpose, the essent…

Caratterizzazione chimico-morfologica di accessioni spontanee di origano siciliano (Origanum heracleoticum L.) del territorio dei monti Nebrodi
2009
Il genere Origano è estremamente diffuso nel bacino del Mediterraneo, con diverse specie presenti nel territorio siciliano. Il comprensorio dei Monti Nebrodi (Sicilia N-E), esteso per circa 200.000 ettari, è una delle aree siciliane in cui è presente la massima biodiversità vegetale; l'area è caratterizzato prevalentemente dalla presenza di Origanum heracleoticum, reperibile in ambienti ecologicamente anche assai diversificati. Con l'obiettivo di acquisire informazioni utili ai fini della caratterizzazione delle accessioni di Origanum heracleoticum spontanee nel comprensorio nebroideo, a partire dal 2007 è stato avviato su di esse un lavoro di ricognizione e collezione sistematica. Campioni…
La géographie de la Sicile dans la Bibliothéque Historique de Diodore de Sicile
2023
Diodorus’ information on Sicilian geography are few, and they occur in Books 4-5, devoted to local myths. The historian deals especially with subjects such as insularity, site, dimensions of the Island, with the aim to stress the central role played by Sicily within the ancient Mediterranean world, also from a geographical point of view. In Diodorus’ Sicilian “Archaeology” the coeval data about geography mingle with mythical information, often approximative and unreal, which the historian found in previous literary traditions. Yet mythical heroes left traces of their presence on the Island, and these are considered by Diodorus as still visible in his times, and a proof of their passage. Cen…
Eracle e la cerva di Cerinea del Museo Archeologico “A. Salinas” di Palermo. Dall’originale ai calchi moderni per la didattica e l’arredo privato
2021
Il testo, partendo da un inedito calco in gesso patinato della prima metà del ‘900 rinvenuto sul mercato antiquario, analizza il gruppo bronzeo con Eracle e la cerva di Cerinea del Museo Archeologico “A. Salinas” di Palermo da cui è tratto (fine I sec. a.C. – I sec. d.C.), descrivendone il tipo iconografico e individuandone l’archetipo lisippeo, attraverso il raffronto con esempi di età imperiale, tardo-antica e medievale. L’opera, ritrovata a Pompei nel 1805, fu donata al Museo dell’Università di Palermo nel 1831 per la munificenza dei Borbón/Farnese, di cui si approfondiscono almeno due episodi di illuminata committenza artistica per la città durante il soggiorno di Ferdinando I re delle …
Solidago canadensis un Heracleum sosnowskyi ēterisko eļļu herbicidālā un fungicidālā iedarbība
2022
Strauja invazīvo augu sugu izplatīšanās tiek uzskatīta par vienu no galvenajiem bioloģiskās daudzveidības samazināšanās virzītājspēkiem, kā rezultātā tiek traucēta ekosistēmu pakalpojumu nodrošināšana, kas rada negatīvas ekoloģiskās sekas, ekonomiskus zaudējumus un kaitējumu cilvēka veselībai. Invazīvo augu sugu ierobežošana ir dārga un bieži vien ekonomiski neizdevīga, kā arī ķīmiskā ierobežošana var radīt draudus cilvēkam, tāpēc izdevīgāk būtu šīs sugas ilgtspējīgi izmantot, vienlaikus cenšoties nepieļaut jaunu invazīvo augu sugu ienākšanu Latvijā. Latvijā izplatītāko invazīvo augu sugu Sosnovska latvāņa un Kanādas zeltslotiņas augu daļas ir bagātas ar ēterisko eļļu, kurai var būt herbici…
Madness and Bestialization in Euripides’ Heracles. Οὔποτ' ἄκραντα δόμοισι Λύσσα βακχεύσει.
2013
Against a background of anxious evocation of Dionysiac rites, Euripides’ Heracles stages the extreme degradation of the tragic hero, who as a consequence of the hatred of a divinity loses his heroic traits and above all his human ones in the exercise of brutal violence. By means of comparing Heracles to a furious bull assailing its prey, the tragedian clearly shows the inexorability of the divine will and its arbitrariness, and emphasizes madness itself through images traditionally associated with the bull. However, the reference to monstrosity and animals does not involve only Heracles, but also concerns the representation of Lyssa, the demon of madness sent by Hera to induce Heracles to s…
