Два своеобразных словаря латышского языка
2016
Latviesu-igauņu vārdnīca. Projektijuht [Manager of the project] Arvi Tavast. Tallinn: Eesti Keele Sihtasutus, 2015, 737 pp. Igauņu-latviesu vārdnīca . Atb. red. [Ed.] Valts Ernstreits. Rīga: Latviesu valodas aģentūra, Tallinn: Eesti Keele Sihtasutus, 2015, 1096 pp. Review Two Peculiar Dictionaries of Latvian Estonian-Latvian dictionary (ed. Valts Ernstreits) and Latvian-Estonian dictionary (manager of the project Arvi Tavast) have been published at the same time and with the same design. Each of the dictionaries consists from more than forty thousand headwords, however they are not of the same size, Estonian-Latvian dictionary has significantly more pages. The reason is the Estonian-Latvian…
La memòria recuperada: l’ús dels relats biogràfics en la segona i tercera generació dels emigrants valencians als Estats Units d’Amèrica a principi d…
2021
És habitual quan es fa ús del mètode biogràfic recollir els relats directament d'aquells que van viure els fets narrats, siguin estos tota una vida o alguns aspectes que l'investigador desitgi que siguin destacats. En la investigació duta a terme sobre la recuperació de la memòria dels emigrants valencians als Estats Units d'Amèrica durant les dues primeres dècades del segle XX això es presenta com un fet impossible: els que van viure en primera persona l'emigració ja han desaparegut. Es podria pensar que amb ells desapareixien també les seues històries. Però gràcies a un exhaustiu treball amb els seus descendents (filles i fills, nétes i néts, nebodes i nebots) i fent ús de tècniques que s…
Critica scientifica, popolarizzazione dell’etnografia ed etica dell’antropologo: sulla “controversia yanomami”, per esempio
2021
La “controversia sugli Yanomami” ha investito questioni centrali, tanto epistemologiche quanto etiche e politiche, per la disciplina e la pratica dell’antropologia, riguardando in particolare l’etica della ricerca sul campo; il modo di impiegare i dati di ricerca per sostenere determinate ipotesi teoriche; i rapporti tra popolarizzazione e politicizzazione delle ricerche e, più in generale, la responsabilità degli antropologi rispetto sia agli usi dei loro studi nella sfera pubblica sia nei confronti dei soggetti umani con cui lavorano. In quest’articolo esamino alcuni momenti chiave della “controversia”. In particolare provo a ricostruire il modo in cui si è inizialmente consolidata, dentr…
The long-term consequences of the global 1918 influenza pandemic: A systematic analysis of 117 IPUMS international census data sets
2017
Several country-level studies, including a prominent one for the United States, have identified long-term effects of in-utero exposure to the 1918 influenza pandemic (also known as the Spanish Flu) on economic outcomes in adulthood. In-utero conditions are theoretically linked to adult health and socioeconomic status through the fetal origins or Barker hypothesis. Historical exposure to the Spanish Flu provides a natural experiment to test this hypothesis. Although the Spanish Flu was a global phenomenon, with around 500 million people infected worldwide, there exists no comprehensive global study on its long-term economic effects. We attempt to close this gap by systematically analyzing 11…
De parques y naturalezas. Enunciados, cimientos y dispositivos
2009
Beatriz.Santamarina@uv.es Desde nuestra perspectiva, los parques naturales presentan, tanto una oportunidad para reflexionar sobre los cimientos ideológicos de nuestra práctica cultural, como una invitación para poner en entredicho las políticas conservacionistas “neoliberales” presentadas y revestidas como ecológicas. Las áreas protegidas son un campo complejo de análisis, llevan procesos asociados de territorialización y desterritorialización, de homogeneización e hibridación, de terciarización, regulación y reurbanización, dentro de lo que se ha venido denominando la globalización. En este artículo abordamos la compleja expresión de los parques naturales. Para ello, nos acercaremos a las…
Język polski na Uniwersytecie Łotewskim w Rydze
2015
The Polish language at the Latvian University in RigaThe history of teaching of Polish language in the University of Latvia (LU) starts soon after its establishment in 1919. In the 1930s thanks to such famous scientists as Julian Krzyżanowski and Stanisław Kolbuszewski, the number of subjects connected with the Polish culture has increased at the Faculty of Philology and Philosophy and the Latvian society was introduced to the numerous works of these professors, published in different publications in Latvia. After the Second World War, Polish language has been taught within Russian philology with the aim of comparison Eastern and Western Slavic language groups. At the same time scientific w…
On the empirical spectral distribution for certain models related to sample covariance matrices with different correlations
2021
Given [Formula: see text], we study two classes of large random matrices of the form [Formula: see text] where for every [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] are iid copies of a random variable [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] are two (not necessarily independent) sets of independent random vectors having different covariance matrices and generating well concentrated bilinear forms. We consider two main asymptotic regimes as [Formula: see text]: a standard one, where [Formula: see text], and a slightly modified one, where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] while [Formula: see text] for some [Formula: see text]. Assuming that vectors [Formula: see t…
Introduzione

1. Preambolo La bombola del gas sembra vuota, le manopole della cucina sono, in aggiunta e in definitiva cessazione di ogni speranza di avere fuoco, ossidate e inutilizzabili. I ragazzi mi guardano preoccupati, attoniti: la festa campestre, tanto agognata, pare essere irrimediabilmente perduta. Ma siamo al Mulino, l’antica residenza rurale dove ho trascorso lunghe estati con unici compagni di giochi mio fratello, ramarri e lucertole, grilli e cicale, scursuna e granchi di fiume. E al Mulino i...
Reliable numerical solution of a class of nonlinear elliptic problems generated by the Poisson-Boltzmann equation
2020
We consider a class of nonlinear elliptic problems associated with models in biophysics, which are described by the Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE). We prove mathematical correctness of the problem, study a suitable class of approximations, and deduce guaranteed and fully computable bounds of approximation errors. The latter goal is achieved by means of the approach suggested in [S. Repin, A posteriori error estimation for variational problems with uniformly convex functionals. Math. Comp., 69:481-500, 2000] for convex variational problems. Moreover, we establish the error identity, which defines the error measure natural for the considered class of problems and show that it yields computa…
L’allattamento tra cura e cultura: dall’Africa all’ipertrofia tecnologica
2017
L’allattamento è una pratica finora poco studiata dall’antropologia culturale e medica, atto che si colloca tra la natura e la cultura, tra la sfera privata e quella sociale della donna e che, come la nascita e la gravidanza. Esso esprime in dinamiche biopolitiche che denotano l’organizzazione della società stessa, le gerarchie nei ruoli e i rapporti di genere. In quanto pratica culturale, l’allattamento si differenzia in base all’appartenenza sociale ed etnica della madre e del neonato, portando con sé delle differenze rituali come nella legge della “parentela di latte” nelle società musulmane o nei tabu apotropaici dell’Africa subsahariana. Il saggio propone alcune riflessioni su quanto t…
