MANGANELLI SCONCLUSIONATO. UN CONVEGNO A PALERMO
2022
Il contributo illustra il carattere scientifico del convegno organizzato a Palermo il 19-20 maggio 2022 e passa in rassegna i singoli saggi dei relatori ospiti del convegno, inquadrandoli nelle varie linee di poetica dello scrittore e valorizzandone gli aspetti di originalità nel contesto degli studi su Manganelli
Antikisierende Liebesgeschichten im Taschenbuchformat – Die Briefromane ›Menander und Glycerion‹ und ›Krates und Hipparchia‹
2021
The article analyzes the two later works of Christoph Marin Wieland, Menander and Glycerion, 1803, and Krates and Hipparchia, 1804. The actions of the short epistolary novels take place in ancient Greece. In this article are analyzed the formal, thematic and local similarities. In this article I would like to focus on the reason why shortly after the publication of the long letter novel Aristipp, 1801, Christoph Martin Wieland changes his concept of text types.

Sombrero lids’ and children’s pots. An Early Bronze Age shaft grave from Tell Shiyukh Tahtani
2006
Tell Shiyukh Tahtani is one of the ancient mounds in the upper Syrian Euphrates Valley, which has been recently investigated by a team of the University of Palermo as part of the Tishreen Dam Salvage project1. Apart from various levels of occupation, ranging from the early third millennium B.C. to classical and Islamic times, these excavations have brought to light a fairly large amount of graves (about 90), which, beside providing many interesting finds, allow us to undertake a detailed study of Bronze Age burial practices at the site and in northern Syria as a whole. In dedicating the present paper to Uwe Finkbeiner, who has, as an excavator, made a great contribution to the archaeology o…

Rappresentazioni e territorio nelle dinamiche del turismo: il caso della Lonely Planet Sicily
2018
L’attuale dibattito sul riordino territoriale del Paese rende nuovamente centrale il concetto di territorio che, da sempre, in una prospettiva geografica pone problemi definitori. Esso può essere, infatti, oggetto di produzioni simboliche e (ri)semantizzazioni in grado di ridefinirlo e di creare specifiche modalità di interazione. A questo proposito, il presente lavoro intende proporre una riflessione su alcune dinamiche di produzione e riproduzione simbolica che interessano il concetto di territorio nel turismo, ambito in cui si può osservare una relazione diretta tra rappresentazione del territorio (intesa anche come narrazione) e possibilità d’azione. In particolare, attraverso il caso s…
Pirati nel Mediterraneo: Benvenuto e Giorgio Graffeo tra Siclia, Sardegna e corte aragonese
2020
Il saggio ricostruisce il ruolo di Benvenuto Graffeo, barone di Partanna, e del fratello Giorgio, barone di Adragna, in un complesso periodo della storia siciliana caratterizzato dal conflitto angioino-aragonese e dagli interessi della Corona d’Aragona sull’isola. Consiglieri e sostenitori della Corona, la loro storia si affianca a quella di altri nobili che nel XIV secolo esercitarono l’attività di pirati e di corsari nel Mediterraneo. Il rinvenimento di documenti inediti ha permesso di chiarire alcuni dubbi e fornire nuovi elementi per la storia della famiglia. The essay reconstructs the role of Benvenuto Graffeo, baron of Partanna, and of his brother Giorgio, baron of Adragna, in a compl…
Lipid and apoprotein composition of HDL in partial or complete CETP deficiency
2012
Hyperalphalipoproteinemia, as observed in patients who are either homozygous or heterozygous for cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) deficiency, has been shown to be associated with striking changes in apolipoprotein size distribution, namely, of high-density lipoprotein (HDL) and HDL-like particles. We compared the effect of varying degrees of CETP activity on the HDL apolipoprotein profile in Caucasian CETP-deficient subjects and following pharmacological decrease in CETP activity, using Size Exclusion Chromatography followed by Reverse Phase Protein Array (SEC RPA). The main HDL-associated apolipoproteins (Apo), i.e. ApoA-I, ApoA-II, ApoC-I, and ApoC-III, co-eluted with the HDL pea…
eNOS Activation by HDL Is Impaired in Genetic CETP Deficiency.
2014
Mutations in the CETP gene resulting in defective CETP activity have been shown to cause remarkable elevations of plasma HDL-C levels, with the accumulation in plasma of large, buoyant HDL particles enriched in apolipoprotein E. Genetic CETP deficiency thus represents a unique tool to evaluate how structural alterations of HDL impact on HDL atheroprotective functions. Aim of the present study was to assess the ability of HDL obtained from CETP-deficient subjects to protect endothelial cells from the development of endothelial dysfunction. HDL isolated from one homozygous and seven heterozygous carriers of CETP null mutations were evaluated for their ability to down-regulate cytokine-induced…
FAILURE of TERATMENT in CHILDHOOD EXTRACRANIAL and EXTRATESTICULAR MALIGNANT GERM CELL TUMOURS (mgct)
2001
Platinum based chemptherapy improves the cure rate of patients with MGCT to over 80 poer cent, but tumour recurrence is associated with an unfavourable prognosis. We sought to identify factors predicitive of poor outcome following relapse.
