Arabismi di ambito agricolo e alimentare in Sicilia e nel Mediterraneo
2017
L’immagine del Mediterraneo come luogo di migrazioni, incontri e attraversamenti culturali pluridirezionali è nelle parole di Ferdinand Braudel quando lo definisce «non un mare, ma un susseguirsi di mari. Non una civiltà, ma una serie di civiltà accatastate le une sulle altre». Ma la complessità “disegnata” da Braudel si mostra ancora più intricata quando si guarda alla lingua con le sue forti dinamiche variabili. Come ha più volte osservato Giovanni Ruffino, per il linguista può essere utile adottare la formula «lingue circolari/lingue marginali» o, ancora meglio, la formula «correnti marginali e correnti circolari di lingua e cultura», per riferirsi a una molteplicità di condizioni lingui…
The Problem of Existential Import in Metathetic Propositions: Qutb al-Din al-Tahtani contra Fakhr al-Din al-Razi
2019
This paper addresses discussions in post-Avicennan Arabic logic on various characterizations of metathetic propositions and their status vis-à-vis the existential import condition by focusing on the arguments made by Fakhr al-Dīn al-Rāzī (d. 606/1210) and the counter-arguments by Quṭb al-Dīn al-Rāzī al-Taḥtānī (d. 766/1365), both of whom established their positions in a framework drawn by Avicenna (Ibn Sīnā, d. 428/1037), the most prominent figure in the tradition of classical Arabic logic. In his logic texts, Avicenna thoroughly discusses the problem of the existential import in metathetic propositions (ma‘dūla), and seems to have presumed the existential import to be a truth-condition for…

How composition and process parameters affect volatile active compounds in biopolymer films
2012
Abstract Active edible films based on chitosan and containing an active aroma compound have been investigated. The influence of the composition of the film forming solution (solvent, plasticizers, nanoparticles, emulsifiers and aroma traps) and process parameters (temperature and viscosity) on drying kinetics, water content, colour, aroma compound retention and partition coefficient was studied. Solvent evaporation rate was increased by addition of ethanol. Water evaporation was delayed by glycerol. The aroma retention during film drying was directly related to the water content. The drying temperature had opposite influences according to the composition of the solvent and additives. Increa…
Ikony arabskie
2016
Ikona jest formą komunikowania chrześcijańskich dogmatów wiary. Ikona, jako fenomen, rozwinęła się głównie dzięki Bizancjum. Jednak Bizancjum nie było jedynym miejscem twórczości ikonograficznej. Ikony były tworzone zarówno na Zachodzie, jak i na Wschodzie niebizantyjskim. Dla chrześcijan arabskich centrum ikony było Aleppo. Wpływ kultury islamu i świata arabskiego zostawił ślad na sztuce chrześcijańskiej, która stworzyła charakterystyczne formy, zwłaszcza poprzez arabeskową ornamentykę. Pośród znamienitych artystów, tworzących ikony arabskie w Aleppo, najbardziej znana jest rodzina – od dziadka do prawnuka: Youssof, Nemeh, Hannania i Girgis. Dzięki tym ikonografom można śledzić ewolucję ik…

Data from: Utility of island populations in reintroduction programs—relationships between Arabian gazelles (Gazella arabica) from the Farasan Archipe…
2014
Understanding local adaptation and population differentiation is vital to the success of reintroduction initiatives. Like other mammals living on islands, Arabian gazelles (G. arabica) show reduced body size on the Farasan archipelago, which we corroborated in this study through morphometric analyses of skulls. In light of the steep population decline on the Arabian Peninsula—but stable population development on the archipelago—we tested the potential suitability of Farasan gazelles as a source for reintroductions on the mainland. We, therefore, investigated genetic differentiation between Farasan and mainland populations using eleven nuclear microsatellite loci and detected a distinct gene…
