三門湾事件時期『申報』所見対意大利的公衆情緒
2020
我们都知道意大利与中国在文化、经济、政治等领域交流非常丰富。这是罗马智慧大学传统研 究领域,而且很多意大利的研究人员通过分析各类文学作品(特别是耶稣会传教士与中国学者的 科学、地理学作品与旅游日记)来研究这些交流的不同方面及其结构。可是迄今为止,还没有任何 一部论著从中国近代报刊来研究意大利。正是因此,我选择了晚清时期《申报》中对意大利形象的 分析作为我博士论文的选题,即《晚清报刊中的意大利形象分析——案例分析(1872-1912)》。 而本文所讨论的主题便是我的博士论文研究的一部分。 在西方社会中报纸具有一种重要的任务,而从 19 世纪起,西方商人与传教士在中国推进了新 闻传播的发展,所以清末时期的外文与中文报刊很多,然而很少有报刊具有《申报》那样长的历史, 也很少有报刊产生了如同《申报》般重要的影响。
Habitat preferences of bats in a rural area of Sicily determined by acoustic surveys
2009
<strong>Abstract</strong> The bat fauna of a 60 km<sup>2</sup> wide area representing the typical rural landscape of inland Sicily and including the small &ldquo;Rocche di Entella&rdquo; karstic plateau (Natural Reserve and SAC) was surveyed between May 2006 and September 2007. Sampling was carried out at 95 sites, distributed proportionally in six main habitats. Bat calls were time-expanded with a D980 bat detector and then identified to species level by a Discriminant Function Analysis. We recorded 305 bat passes and identified 96.4% of recorded calls. Moon phase, cloud cover and their interaction did not affect total bat activity, nor did the sampling peri…
Status of vulnerable Cystoseira populations along the Italian infralittoral fringe, and relationships with environmental and anthropogenic variables
2018
We analyzed the occurrence and status of infralittoral fringe populations of Cystoseira spp. (Fucales) at thirteen rocky sites around the Italian coastline, and explored the relationships with relevant environmental and anthropogenic variables. We found Cystoseira populations at 11 sites: most were scattered and comprised monospecific stands of C. compressa, and only 6 sites also supported sparse specimens of either C. amentacea var. stricta or C. brachycarpa. Coastal human population density, Chlorophyll a seawater concentrations, sea surface temperature, annual range of sea surface temperature and wave fetch explained most of the variation of the status of C. compressa. We hypothesize a g…
First Report of Tomato torrado virus Infecting Tomato in Italy.
2010
In 2009 and 2010, approximately 2% of plants had disease symptoms, including initial leaflet chlorosis that later developed into necrotic spots and general necroses along the leaflet. Fruit production on affected plants was substantially reduced and necroses were also present. Total RNA was extracted from five symptomatic plant samples using the RNeasy Plant Mini Kit (Qiagen, Hilden, Germany) and analyzed by reverse transcription (RT)-PCR with specific primer pair: TR2F (5′ GAAGGACGAAGAGCGACTG 3′), and TR2R (5′ AAGGTAGGTATGCGTTTGC 3′) (1). The primers amplified a 575-bp fragment within the coat protein Vp23 of Tomato torrado virus (ToTV). No RT-PCR products were observed when water or asym…
AISF position paper on liver disease and pregnancy.
2016
Abstract The relationship between liver disease and pregnancy is of great clinical impact. Severe liver disease in pregnancy is rare; however, pregnancy-related liver disease is the most frequent cause of liver dysfunction during pregnancy and represents a severe threat to foetal and maternal survival. A rapid differential diagnosis between liver disease related or unrelated to pregnancy is required in women who present with liver dysfunction during pregnancy. This report summarizes the recommendation of an expert panel established by the Italian Association for the Study of the Liver (AISF) on the management of liver disease during pregnancy. The article provides an overview of liver disea…
Plasma non-cholesterol sterols: a useful diagnostic tool in pediatric hypercholesterolemia.
2010
Current guidelines strongly recommend the identification of genetic forms of hypercholesterolemia (HC) during childhood. The usefulness of non–cholesterol sterols (NCS) in the diagnosis of genetic HC has not been fully explored. Plasma NCS were measured by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) in 113 children with hypercholesterolemia affected by: autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH), familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL), polygenic hypercholesterolemia (PHC), and in 79 controls to evaluate: i) plasma NCS profile in different genetic HC and ii) the usefulness of NCS for the diagnosis of HC beyond current clinical criteria. ADH was characterized by raised lathosterol/total …
Chorological notes on the Sicilian endemic Euphorbia papillaris (Euphorbiaceae)
2022
Thanks to the discovery of a new important site in the Trapani Mountains, the distribution of Euphorbia papillaris, a rare plant endemic to N-W Sicily, is revised. On the basis of the unpublished record, one of the two hypotheses on the discovery of the species in Sicily, previously advanced, is here confirmed. Floristic and ecological information on the new locality are also provided.
Intermedio and Chorus. Re-thinking Theories and Practices in Sixteenth-Century Italian Theatre
2017
L'articolo mette a confronto le teorie fiorite nel corso del sedicesimo secolo sull'uso del coro e dell'intermedio nei tre generi teatrali dell'epoca (tragedia, commedia, favola pastorale). L'esame rivela che, lungi dall'uniformarsi agli asserti dei letterati pieni di riferimenti alle poetiche di Aristotele e Orazio, gli uomini di teatro paragonarono spesso l'intermedio al coro di ispirazione classica. La definizione di "coro intercalare" e di "coro istrione", avanzata da Ottavio Magnanini nel 1614, si può applicare alle tragedie di alcuni celebri autori del secolo precedente che accostarono il coro tragico all'intermedio, corrompendo in parte il ruolo drammatico del primo a favore della sp…
Chemical Composition and Antimicrobial Activity of the Essential Oils from Three Chemotypes of Origanum vulgare L. ssp. hirtum (Link) Ietswaart Growi…
2009
Essential oils obtained from inflorescences of three Origanum vulgare L.ssp. hirtum (Link) Ietswaart samples, growing wild in different locations in Campania (Southern Italy), were analysed. Three chemotypes were found: the first, with a prevalence of carvacrol/thymol; the second, characterized by the prevalence of thymol/alpha-terpineol; the third, featuring a prevalence of linalyl acetate and linalool. This chemical study attempts to provide a contribution in shedding light on the relationship between chemical composition and biotypes and/or chemotypes in Origanum vulgare ssp. hirtum. The essential oils were also evaluated for their antibacterial activity against 10 selected microorganism…
Labdane Diterpenes from Stachys plumosa
2000
Three new labdane diterpenoids were isolated from the aerial parts of Stachys plumosa. The first two (1, 2) were the dextrorotatory enantiomers of the known 6-deoxyandalusol and 13-epijabugodiol. Structures were determined using NMR and MS techniques. The absolute stereochemistry of the third compound (3) was not experimentally proved.
