Analytical studies of the Sirocco room of Villa Naselli-Ambleri: A XVI century passive cooling structure in Palermo (Sicily)
2015
Abstract This work focuses on a passive cooling architecture particularly popular from the Renaissance in Palermo area, as building sumptuous suburban villas became a real hobby for the Sicilian aristocracy. A Sirocco room is an artificial subterranean construction, built close to a water spring in order to reproduce the pleasant conditions of freshness that could be experienced in a natural cavern. In these places, nobles used to spend their time with friends to escape from the hot summer. The room of Villa Naselli-Ambleri is nowadays the best preserved in Palermo thanks to its owners’ conservation care and it is unique for its cooling operating principle. The above-mentioned consideration…
La voie des idées, de Descartes à Hume
2015
International audience; Lorsque Descartes fait de la connaissance de l'esprit humain la principale tâche de la philosophie, il lui applique l'idée moderne de la science comme connaissance certaine et évidente. Durant les 150 ans qui suivront, aucun penseur ne reniera cette étincelle cartésienne. Dans son sillage mais aussi contre elle, dans le ciel de la philosophie apparaît une constellation de penseurs de premier ordre : Pascal, Hobbes, Spinoza, Malebranche, Leibniz, Locke, Berkeley, Hume. La recherche philosophique accompagnant la "révolution scientifique" commencée avec Galilée s'engage alors dans "la voie des idées". C'est donc sur cette voie que Pierre Guenancia nous entraîne, soulign…
Fossil heritage conservation in Scotland
2019
A globally significant palaeontological resource is an integral part of Scotland’s geoheritage. A strong amateur collector tradition, extending back over two centuries has helped fuel scientific advance with the fossil resource also supporting hobby collecting. However, during the long history of collecting activity, finite fossil resources have been under pressure with instances of large-scale collecting that has damaged some particularly vulnerable localities. Legislative provisions over recent decades offer robust site-based protection that will have safeguarded some of the best and most representative fossil localities. Additionally, the Scottish Fossil Code, the first national code of …

Emaitzetan ikusten denez, inkestari erantzun dioten blogarietan gehienak kazetaritzaren arlotik kanpokoak dira eta, proiektuari afizio moduan ekin bazioten ere, diruz etekina ateratzea lortu dute erdiek.; The online travel journalism has experienced a boom in the last decade, with the emergence of thousands of blogs devoted to this …
On Addressing the Challenges of Complex Stochastic Games Using “Representative” Moves
2018
The problem of achieving competitive game play in a board game, against an intelligent opponent, is a well-known and studied field of Artificial Intelligence (AI). This area of research has seen major breakthroughs in recent years, particularly in the game of Go. However, popular hobby board games, and particularly Trading Card Games, have unique qualities that make them very challenging to existing game playing techniques, partly due to enormous branching factors. This remains a largely unexamined domain and is the arena we operate in. To attempt to tackle some of these daunting requirements, we introduce the novel concept of “Representative” Moves (RMs). Rather than examine the complete l…
Was Thomas Hobbes the first biopolitical thinker?
2023
Thomas Hobbes's name often comes up as scholars debate the history of biopower, which regulates the biological life of individual bodies and entire populations. This article examines whether and to what extent Hobbes may be regarded as the first biopolitical philosopher. I investigate this question by performing a close reading of Hobbes's political texts and by comparing them to some of the most influential theories on biopolitics proposed by Michel Foucault, Giorgio Agamben, Roberto Esposito, and others. Hobbes is indeed the first great thinker to assert the supreme political importance of safeguarding life. Furthermore, this prominence of non-contemplative life is not limited to mere su…

Thomas Hobbes ja pelon taloustiede
2013
Thomas Hobbesia (1588-1679) pidetään usein yhtenä ”kapitalismin isistä”. Näkökulma on kuitenkin sinänsä ongelmallinen, että Hobbes ei juurikaan kirjoittanut pääomista tai tuotannosta. Hänen poliittinen ajattelunsa oli vastakkaista Englannin nousevan porvariston pyrkimyksille toteuttaa vero- ja kauppavapaus. Hobbes piti aikansa Alankomaita huonona esimerkkinä pääoman ja vapauden liitosta.Kysymys omistuksesta löytyy kuitenkin Hobbesin yhteiskuntateorian perustasta. Kuuluisassa ”luonnontilassa” ei voi Hobbesin mukaan olla omistusta, koska vain oikeusjärjestelmä yhdessä väkivallan monopolin kanssa kykenee takaamaan sen. Hobbes kannustaa ihmisiä tuottavaan elämään ja näkee valtion tehtävänä sell…
Análisis contrastivo de la (des)cortesía en los comentarios digitales del periódico 20minutos.es y del Facebook de viajacontumascota.com: anonimato y…
2019
Esta investigación analiza las diferencias entre dos tipos de discursos digitales: las intervenciones reactivas a cinco posts por parte de los seguidores de una página de Facebook, ViajaconTuMascota.com, en la que existe cierta camaradería por la afición compartida; y los comentarios de lectores anónimos, entre los que no se establece esa solidaridad, a cinco noticias del periódico digital, 20minutos.es. Se pretende comprobar cómo inciden estas diferencias, la presencia o ausencia de solidaridad y el anonimato frente a la identidad real, cuando se producen desacuerdos: si se mantiene la cortesía social, a través de una cortesía mitigadora, o si se quiebra al activarse una estrategia de cibe…
