Archeologia dziewiętnastowiecznej pamięci w insurekcyjnym tryptyku Jarosława Iwaszkiewicza ("Noc czerwcowa", "Zarudzie", "Heydenreich")
2013
Three short “insurrection” stories written by Jarosław Iwaszkiewicz in the years 1963–1974 have inspired various interpretations; it seems, however, that there are still many undeciphered codes, references, and allusions. The author’s metatextual comments as well as the implicit poetics of the stories make it possible to consider them as a dialogue with the historical, cultural and aesthetic heritage of the 19th century: as a form of its literary archeology. The article deals with many literary and aesthetic conventions employed in the stories, with the emphasis on the concept of sérénité and on various associations with 19th-century art. Notably, the scope of analysis includes such motifs …
The role of fish life histories in allometrically scaled food‐web dynamics
2019
Body size determines key ecological and evolutionary processes of organisms. Therefore, organisms undergo extensive shifts in resources, competitors, and predators as they grow in body size. While empirical and theoretical evidence show that these size‐dependent ontogenetic shifts vastly influence the structure and dynamics of populations, theory on how those ontogenetic shifts affect the structure and dynamics of ecological networks is still virtually absent. Here, we expand the Allometric Trophic Network (ATN) theory in the context of aquatic food webs to incorporate size‐structure in the population dynamics of fish species. We do this by modifying a food web generating algorithm, the nic…
Do plant-based biogeographical regions shape aphyllophoroid fungal communities in Europe?
2018
Aim: Aphyllophoroid fungi are associated with plants, either using plants as a resource (as parasites or decomposers) or as symbionts (as mycorrhizal partners). In spite of their strong association with plants, it is unknown how much plant distributions determine their biogeographical patterns compared with environmental factors such as climate and human land use. In this study, our aims are to (1) describe the spatial diversity patterns of aphyllophoroid fungi in Europe and (2) identify the factors shaping these patterns. Location: Europe, as well as the adjacent Subarctic to Arctic islands (Greenland, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Svalbard), Palestine and the south-east coast of the Caspian Sea…

Femininity and Fertility in Sisters with Twin Brothers: Prenatal Androgenization? Cross-Sex Socialization?
2002
Are sisters of twin brothers behaviorally or physiologically masculinized? Prenatal exposure to their brothers' androgens and postnatal socialization experiences unique to girls growing up with twin brothers might influence their attitudes, pubertal development, and reproductive histories. To investigate, we studied age- and cohort-matched samples of Finnish sisters from same-sex and opposite-sex twin pairs. Using data from two ongoing longitudinal studies of consecutive birth cohorts of Finnish twins, we assessed pubertal development at ages 11 and 14 and endorsement of attitudes associated with femininity at age 16. We also studied fertility in Finnish women from same- and opposite-sex t…
Giovanni Boccaccio fra il Geta e l’Alda
2020
Il saggio si propone di registrare e di studiare le citazioni, le suggestioni, gli echi e le riscritture di due "commedie elegiache" latine del XII secolo, il Geta di Vitale di Blois e l'Alda di Guglielmo di Blois, operate da Giovanni Boccaccio nelle sue opere (segnatamente l'Elegia di madonna Fiammetta, l'Amorosa visione, il Ninfale fiesolano e, ovviamente, il Decameron). This essay aims to record and study the quotations, suggestions, echoes and rewrites of two 12th century Latin "elegiac comedies", Vitalis of Blois' Geta and William of Blois' Alda, made by Giovanni Boccaccio in his works (notably the Elegia di madonna Fiammetta, the Amorosa visione, the Ninfale Fiesolano and, obviously, …

Il volume, corredato da una prefazione del Prof. Paolo Santangelo, comprende una lunga introduzione sullo sviluppo della letteratura cinese contemporanea incentrata sul racconto, e propone, nella traduzione italiana dell'Autrice stessa dall'originale in cinese, dodici racconti scritti fra il 1977 e il 1981. The volume includes a preface written by Prof. Paolo Santangelo, a long introduction to the contemporary Chinese literature based on the short story, and the translations by the Author herself into Italian from the original in Chinese of twelve short stories written between 1977 and 1981.
Approssimazioni alla “leggenda del legno della Croce” nell'Occitania medievale
2019
La leggenda del legno della croce è una delle storie apocrife più significative del medioevo religioso. Essa è il risultato di un lungo processo di stratificazione di racconti e motivi leggendari, e risulta declinata in versioni plurime, più o meno scorciate e interpolate. Il presente contributo indaga la diffusione della storia del lignum crucis nel contesto occitano. La scelta non è casuale; appare, anzi, necessaria. In effetti, come spesso è avvenuto per quella che può essere considerata un’appendice alla cosiddetta «eccezione narrativa» occitana, lo studio della letteratura religiosa del Midi necessita ancora di nuovi spunti d’indagine, trasversali e comparativi. Di questo soffrono anch…
