Mayans and the Society of Jesus. From friendship to rupture. A diverging religious cultural evolution
2018
espanolEn este articulo se analiza, a traves de la correspondencia mantenida por Gregorio Mayans con diferentes y cualificados corresponsales, sus posiciones claramente antijesuiticas. Desde una confianza inicial en la Compania de Jesus, la posicion de Mayans experimento una evolucion con el paso del tiempo hacia una abierta oposicion. En ello influyeron, entre otras causas, el desprecio al regalismo practicado por el ilustrado valenciano y ciertos acontecimientos politicos como la muerte de Carvajal y la desaparicion del escenario politico de Ensenada y el padre Ravago. EnglishThis article analyzes, through the correspondence maintained by Gregorio Mayans with different and qualified corre…
L'Irlanda e il mito di Daniel O'Connell nelle pagine della rivista francese Correspondant
2014
The liberal French magazine «Correspondant» has historically devoted some articles to the Irish political history and to the Irish “Liberator” and “Emancipator” Daniel O’Connell. Charles de Montalembert, who was named «O’Connell’s pupil» by French liberal Catholics, played a part in the first series of the French magazine. This appeared in 1829 as an organ of the Association pour la défense de la religion catholique. Among the editors’ goals there were: the truth, Catholicism, the independence and alliance of faith and freedom. In 1843, after a few years of inactivity, the «Correspondant» resumed publication and Montalembert returned to work in this second edition, supporting in his writing…
The Upsides and Downsides of High Self-Control: Evidence for Effects of Similarity and Situation Dependency
2021
High trait self-control is generally depicted as favorable. We investigated whether this holds for social perception. Using vignettes, we tested whether a person with high self-control is 1) preferred as a partner for all or only certain social situations, 2) perceived as less likeable than a person with low self-control, 3) liked more if the person is female and the behavior thus fits the sex-stereotype, and 4) perceived differently from a person with low self-control with respect to a wide range of adjectives used to describe personality. Competing theories are presented for each area. Results indicate that although high self-control is associated with a wide range of socially desirable t…
Optimal extension of multispectral image demosaicking algorithms for setting up a one-shot camera video acquisition system
2022
Multispectral images are acquired using multispectral cameras equipped with CCD or CMOS sensors which sample the visible or near infrared spectrum according to specific spectral bands. A mosaic of multispectral MSFA filters is superimposed on the surface of the sensors to acquire a raw image called an MSFA image. In the MSFA image, only one spectral band is available per pixel, the demosaicking process is necessary to estimate the multispectral image at full spatio-spectral resolution. Motivated by the success of single-sensor cameras capturing the image in a single exposure that use CFA filters, we performed a comparative study of a few recent color image demosaicking algorithms and experi…
Architettura in alzato. Questioni di territorio, paesaggio, ambiente
2021
Negata alla tipologia l’architettura del Sud nel saggio riconosce una specifica identità e perfetta eccezionalità nell’essenza del luogo. Se la facciata istituisce un rapporto con l’estetica del paesaggio, i temi che essa sottende definiscono altre significative relazioni. L’ordinamento logico delle membrature, la chiarezza geometrica e il rigore dei rapporti rimandano ad una architettura che si misura, ed è misura stessa, del territorio e della sua morfologia. A sua volta, lo spessore della facciata esprime la relazione con l’ambiente e interpreta in maniera poetica i condizionamenti climatici, intervenendo sul controllo della luce, sui vuoti nei paramenti murari, sulla determinazione dell…
López Ribalda y otros vs. España [2018]. La violación al derecho a la privacidad a partir de la videovigilancia oculta
2020
En el presente capítulo se analiza el caso López Ribalda vs. España, resuelto por el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos, en el cual se planteó la legitimidad de usar la videovigilancia oculta en una instalación comercial como herramienta para identificar a las personas responsables del delito de robo. Esta situación pone de manifiesto un conflicto de intereses entre quienes ven disminuido su derecho a la privacidad y quien intenta proteger su patrimonio mediante la instalación de un sistema de vigilancia oculto.
Mandible histology in Metoposaurus krasiejowensis (Temnospondyli, Stereospondyli) from the Upper Triassic of Poland
2021
Recent studies that have systematically augmented our knowledge of dermal bones of the Late Triassic temnospondyl amphibian Metoposaurus krasiejowensis have mostly focused on shoulder girdle elements and the skull. So far, histological data on the mandible are still scant. For the present study, two mandibles have been examined, using 50 standard thin sections. Dermal bones of the mandible reveal a uniform diploë structure, with the external cortex consisting of moderately vascularised, parallel-fibred bone, as well as a distinct alternation of thick zones and thinner annuli. Dense bundles of well-mineralised Sharpey’s fibres are seen in the external cortex over the entire length of the man…
Updated checklist and distribution of the inland-water calanoid copepods (Copepoda: Calanoida) of Romania
2009
No recent studies on the distribution of calanoid copepods in Romanian inlandwaters are available. During a long-term survey aimed at large branchiopods, we collected two diaptomid species that are new for the fauna of the country, and supplemented the available data on the distribution of other calanoid species with new records. As already observed in the case of large branchiopods, the habitats of the mountain basins of the Eastern Carpathians seem to be characterized by a quite distinct species assemblage. The high calanoid species richness of Romanian inland-waters, and the need for further, more comprehensive surveys aimed at mapping the actual diversity of this order in Romania are st…
Compound conditionals, Fr\'echet-Hoeffding bounds, and Frank t-norms
2021
Abstract In this paper we consider compound conditionals, Frechet-Hoeffding bounds and the probabilistic interpretation of Frank t-norms. By studying the solvability of suitable linear systems, we show under logical independence the sharpness of the Frechet-Hoeffding bounds for the prevision of conjunctions and disjunctions of n conditional events. In addition, we illustrate some details in the case of three conditional events. We study the set of all coherent prevision assessments on a family containing n conditional events and their conjunction, by verifying that it is convex. We discuss the case where the prevision of conjunctions is assessed by Lukasiewicz t-norms and we give explicit s…
Extensive migration of young neurons into the infant human frontal lobe
2016
Building the human brain As the brain develops, neurons migrate from zones of proliferation to their final locations, where they begin to build circuits. Paredes et al. have discovered that shortly after birth, a group of neurons that proliferates near the ventricles migrates in chains alongside circulatory vessels into the frontal lobes (see the Perspective by McKenzie and Fishell). Young neurons that migrate postnatally into the anterior cingulate cortex then develop features of inhibitory interneurons. The number of migratory cells decreases over the first 7 months of life, and by 2 years of age, migratory cells are not evident. Any damage during migration, such as hypoxia, may affect th…
