The many ways topography buffers responses to climate change
2018
During climate change, populations have two survival options - they can remain in situ and tolerate the new climatic conditions ('stay'), or they can migrate to track their climatic niches elsewhere ('go'). Staying requires broad climatic tolerances, niche shifts due to changing biotic interactions, acclimation through plasticity, or rapid genetic adaptation. Going, in contrast, requires good dispersal and colonization capacities. However, both the magnitude of climate change experienced locally and the capacities required for staying or going in response to climate change are not constant across landscapes, but affected by local microclimatic variation associated with topographic complexit…
Changes in anterior chamber eye during accommodation as assessed using a Dual Scheimpflug system
2018
Purpose: To study the changes in anterior chamber depth (ACD), anterior chamber angle (ACA), and pupil diameter (PD) during accommodation. Methods: Eighty eyes of 80 subjects, aged 22 to 40 years, were included. The rotating Dual Scheimpflug and a Placido disc system (Galilei G4, Ziemer Ophthalmic Systems AG, Switzerland) was used to measure the changes in ACD, ACA, and PD during accommodation. ACD measurement was taken for the central zone and for 4 more positions, each in different orientation (nasal, superior, temporal and inferior), 4 mm away from the centre. ACA was measured for the whole eye as well for the nasal, superior, temporal, and inferior quadrants. These metrics were obtained…
L'éveil des sens et la nature complice chez Zola et Maupassant
2020
The paper discusses the problem of the awakening of senses and sensuality, with a visible connivance of nature, in characters of two novels belonging to the Realist/Naturalist movement. In Emile Zola’s The Sin of Father Mouret (1875), a fanatic priest having forgotten his clerical condition falls in love with a virgin girl who grew up in a savage garden. They are both involved in an erotic game set up by plants and animals living in the garden that want them to know the carnal aspect of love and push them to a physical close-up. In this way, the garden, named the Paradou, becomes both a kind of new Eden and an inferno of lust. In Guy de Maupassant’s Mont-Oriol (1887), a young and naïve aris…
Towards Equivalence Links between Senses in PlWordNet and Princeton WordNet
2017
AbstractThe paper focuses on the issue of creating equivalence links in the domain of bilingual computational lexicography. The existing interlingual links between plWordNet and Princeton WordNet synsets (sets of synonymous lexical units – lemma and sense pairs) are re-analysed from the perspective of equivalence types as defined in traditional lexicography and translation. Special attention is paid to cognitive and translational equivalents. A proposal of mapping lexical units is presented. Three types of links are defined: super-strong equivalence, strong equivalence and weak implied equivalence. The strong equivalences have a common set of formal, semantic and usage features, with some o…
Rivalutare i sensi e la sensibilità
2019
I sensi sono il primo originario legame con il mondo, ci ricordano che siamo per sempre legati alla realtà esterna. I sensi e la sensibilità sono le vie che abbiamo a disposizione per percepire la realtà. Si tratta anzitutto di impedire che i sensi possano essere ridotti a semplici strumenti, a meccanismi operativi, a mezzi di collegamento. L’azione dei sensi non è mai neutra e inefficace: o conduce verso la crescita della persona nel rispetto della verità o porta, al contrario, verso la non verità, verso la deformazione e contraffazione dell’io. L’invito a coltivare i sensi, uno ad uno, per una conquista di una reale maturità affettiva non può che concludersi con la proposta di un solido i…
Identification of a new nonsense mutation (Tyr129Stop) of the SRY gene in a newborn infant with XY sex-reversal.
2004
Point mutations and deletions of SRY gene have been described in several cases of XY gonadal dysgenesis. To date, most of these mutations affect the HMG domain of SRY which plays a central role in DNA binding activity of SRY. We report on a non-mosaic XY sex-reversed newborn girl (completely female external genitalia). The direct sequencing of SRY showed a new nonsense mutation in a codon of SRY gene flanking the 3' end of the HMG domain: a thymine is replaced by a guanine at position +387 in codon 129, resulting in the replacement of the amino acid tyrosine (TAT) by a stop codon (TAG). The new mutation of this patient provides further evidence to support the functional importance of the pu…
Light and Divine Wisdom: An Alternative Interpretation of the Iconography of the Fuller Brooch
2022
La spilla di Fuller viene considerata una rappresentazione, in ambito inglese, dei cinque sensi. Si ritiene che il personaggio centrale, che rappresenta la vista, presenti anche uno o più significati figurativi, legati a idee e concetti che erano correnti nel contesto culturale di re Alfredo. Questi significati figurativi dovevano presumibilmente essere enfatizzati e chiariti dai due oggetti che questa figura regge. Finora, tuttavia, questi oggetti non sono stati interpretati in modo soddisfacente, anche se la maggior parte degli studiosi ritiene che essi possano rappresentare delle piante o cornucopie. Il presente studio esplora l'ipotesi che questi oggetti siano in realtà delle torce, att…
The dynamic concept of humor : Erich Fromm and the possibility of humane humor
2016
This dissertation focuses on the social philosophy of humor from the viewpoint of Erich Fromm’s critical humanistic thinking. The work consists of an introduction and four individual articles. The introduction discusses Fromm’s theories in relation to the phenomenon of humor to provide a basis for the articles. The central aim is to understand the dynamic nature of humor and how it is related to the problem of being a paradoxical creature, that is, a human being. It is claimed that humor has to be analyzed and interpreted in a unique historical and cultural situation. The first article discusses Fromm’s concept of social character to offer a theoretical tool to understand how deeply humor i…
