Sulle tracce di Ovidio epico? Contese tra padri e figli in Ps. Quint. decl. 258

2018

In the Minor Declamation 258 it is possible to notice some echoes of the Armorum iudicium of Ov. met. xiii 1-383, an episode whose success in Greece and Rome dates back to the Cyclic poems. Porcius Latro, the famous rhetorician and teacher of Ovid, chose this subject for one of his declamations and provided his pupil with a model: in fact, as showed by Sen. contr. ii 2, 8, the poet borrowed from the rhetor some literal expressions. We can also remember Sen. contr. x and Calp. decl. 21, two of the most important texts where the motifs of family disputes and reward for viri fortes are re-elaborated, in different ages. Therefore, the Minor declamation 258 is one of these interesting adaptation…

Pauline E. Hopkins's Intertextual Aesthetics in Contending Forces

2017

Pauline E. Hopkins‘s attitude towards fiction as a terrain where political and social truths could be uttered, helped her establish a new hybrid writing paradigm in Contending Forces, her historical romance. The extraordinary intertextual load of references, verbatim borrowings and changed citations, her Emersonian ―noble borrowing,‖ is in fact both an audacious maneuvering of popular literature, and a systematic and subversive redrafting of preceding canonical texts from the Anglo-American literary traditions and of contemporary historical political testimonies. Hopkins‘s palimpsestic aesthetics recreate a sense of African American literary interventions aimed at recomposing a new black ar…

Pan deus Arcadiae (Verg. ecl. 10, 26). Pan, l'aition, l'eurema (Tra Virgilio bucolico ed Ovidio epico)

2020

Between Verg. ecl. 2, 31-38 and Ov. met. 1, 689-715 it is possible to reconstruct an interesting intertextual dialogue based on the two faces of Pan’s sexuality, now inclined to pederotic relationships, now attracted by nymphs in antithesis to hellenistic poetry which, especially in the pastoral context, makes him an ambivalent divinity. In particular, the εὕρημα of the panpipe and its αἴτιον lend themselves to reconstruct the image of a god whose lustis constantly solicited from the outside: in this sense, a long poetic tradition, included between the Greek-archaic epos, the pseudo-homeric hymnography, the hellenistic epigram and thetheocritean production contribute to the redefinition of …

Development of conservation methods for the restoration of paper materials

Paper, one of the most common materials of Cultural Heritage, undergoes serious deterioration caused by physical, chemical and biological factors. One of the main causes of deterioration is the acidic and/or oxidative environment. The studies of deterioration and conservation of paper have been increasing and require further development of methods and treatments that can stabilize and strengthen the paper. Various conservation treatments are being applied to model and to historical paper by using different chemicals methods. Their effectiveness for conservation and restoration are under study. Internal and external factors degrade the paper by promoting various reaction pathways. The two mo…

Use of monitoring intraoperative parathyroid hormone during parathyroidectomy in patients on waiting list for renal transplantation.

2007

This report describes the use of intraoperative parathyroid hormone (ioPTH) assay during parathyroidectomy for patients with secondary hyperparathyroidism on the waiting list for renal transplantation. The levels of ioPTH were determined among waiting list patients undergoing subtotal parathyroidectomy and tertiary hyperparathyroidism patients undergoing procedures. The levels of ioPTH were significantly reduced at 10 minutes by 59.7,3% among with secondary hyperparathyroidism and 68.9% among tertiary hyperparathyroidism. A 15 minutes it was 85% in secondary hyperparathyroidism and 89.7% in tertiary hyperparathyroidism. A decrement of 50% in basal values at 10 minutes and 85% decrement or m…

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism: a review

2021

Abstract: Tertiary hyperparathyroidism (HPT III) occurs when an excess of parathyroid hormone (PTH) is secreted by parathyroid glands, usually after longstanding secondary hyperparathyroidism. Some authorities reserve the term for secondary hyperparathyroidism that persists after successful renal transplantation. Long-standing chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with several metabolic disturbances that lead to increased secretion of PTH, including hyperphosphatemia, calcit-riol deficiency, and hypocalcaemia. Hyperphosphatemia has a direct stimulatory effect on the parathyroid gland cell resulting in nodular hyperplasia and increased PTH secretion. Prolonged hypocalcaemia also causes …

Post-transplantation tertiary hyperparathyroidism.

2012

Tertiary hyperparathyroidism is intended as a state of excessive autonomous excretion of parathyroid hormone after longstanding secondary hyperparathyroidism. It is a condition of a severe hyperparathyroidism that persists in the renal recipient despite a successful transplantation. The high levels of parathyroid hormone lead to a worsening of graft function accompanied by systemic symptoms. This article reviews the main aspects related to tertiary hyperparathyroidism from mechanism of pathogenesis to prevention and treatment, suggesting some indications about the best management of patients on a waiting list for kidney transplant.

La storia del gatto con gli stivali

2011

Durante años, los cuentos de hadas han sido contados por diferentes narradores sin necesidad de tener ningún derecho público. Diferentes narradores han contado a menudo historias similares sin problemas de plagios, y solo unos pocos han alcanzado el privilegio de firmar sus historias. La consecuencia de este hecho es que muchos de los cuentos de hadas son  colecciones anónimas de tramas combinadas por la autoridad del género. Desde este punto de vista, los cuentos acaban siendo una especie de colección de coincidencias entre autores que defienden su derecho a contar “La verdadera historia” o “La historia de las historias”. Por lo tanto, podemos definir estos cuentos como un conjunto de auto…
