«The Open Theatre of the World»: la rivoluzione francese sulle scene inglesi

Il 1 gennaio del 1792, il primo numero del settimanale «The French Senator» rivolge il tradizionale address al pubblico dichiarando lo scopo della pubblicazione: tenere continui contatti con gli eventi che accadono oltre Manica, e riferirne in tempo reale, insieme con la traduzione delle delibere dell’Assemblea Nazionale e dei generici affari di stato. Il titolo del periodico, e la scelta tematica, danno misura adeguata della fortissima incidenza che la rivoluzione francese ha nella società i..

L'allegra discesa di Blake nell'Inferno dantesco

Blake, appassionatosi a Dante fin dal 1780, dedica gli ultimi mesi di vita (1827) alle illustrazioni della Commedia, lavorando in particolare sull'Inferno, cui dedica la maggior parte delle incisioni, alcune rimaste incompiute. L'artista mescola insieme sensazione e terrore, emozione e passione, ma anche divertimento, ironia, rivelandosi molto complice dei presunti peccatori, che egli, come poeta, preferisce definire "trasgressori".Blake devoted his last months, in 1827, to a series of illustrations of the Divine Comedy, with particular emphasis on theInferno, the Cantica which was his favourite, centred as it was on the theme of sin and punishment, the two moral categories that he particularly abhorred. Hence, his humourous and complicit involvement with the motivations of the supposed sinners, with whom he transparently identifies himself.Blake, apasionado por Dante desde 1780, dedicó los últimos meses de su vida (1827) a una serie de ilustraciones de la Comedia, trabajando en particular en el Infierno, al que dedicó la mayor parte de sus grabados, algunos de los cuales quedaron inconclusos.

Čovjek i lacertidni gušteri na sredozemnim otocima: perspektive zaštite

The aim of the present study is to synthesise the available data on the occurrence of lacertid lizards on Mediterranean islands better to understand how far human influence is involved in the present distributional patterns of insular lacertid lizard fauna. At present, the Mediterranean islands are inhabited by several lacertid genera, including endemic species of the genera Algyroides (viz. fitzingeri), »Lacerta« Archaeolacerta (viz. bedriagae) and Podarcis (atratus, filfolensis, gaigae, lilfordi, milensis, pityusensis, raffonei, tiliguerta, waglerianus). Recently reported data shed new light on the relationships between these endemics and some continental species that have recently colonised the islands. The arrival of the latter might be directly related to the progressive human colonisation of these islands. The arising conservation problems are also considered.Cilj ovog rada bio je sakupiti sve dostupne podatke o pojavljivanju lacertidnih guštera na otocima Sredozemlja da bi se bolje razumjelo koliko je čovjek utjecao na sadašnje uzorke rasprostranjenosti otočne faune lacertidnih guštera. Danas sredozemne otoke naseljuje nekoliko rodova lacertida, uključujući endemične vrste rodova Algyroides (viz. fitzingeri), »Lacerta« Archaeolacerta (viz. bedriagae) i Podarcis (atratus, filfolensis, gaigae, lilfordi, milensis, pityusensis, raffonei, tiliguerta, waglerianus). Nedavno objavljeni podaci bacili su novo svjetlo na odnose tih endemičnih i nekih kontinentalnih vrsta koje su nedavno naselile otoke. Dolazak potonjih mogao bi biti u direktnoj vezi s uznapredovalim naseljavanjem čovjeka na te otoke. Razmatraju se nastali problemi zaštite

Effectiveness of the GAEC cross compliance standards Rational management of set aside, Grass strips to control soil erosion and Vegetation buffers along watercourses on surface animal diversity and biological quality of soil

Landscape simplification and loss of natural and semi-natural habitats are the major causes of biodiversity decrease in agricultural landscapes. In order to mitigate the effects of intensive agricultural management the Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies in Italy has included the agronomic measures Rational management of set aside, Grass strips to control soil erosion and Vegetation buffers along watercourses in the decree on cross compliance. In this paper we review the results of a field research performed in Central Italy. The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the above mentioned GAEC standards for animal diversity enhancement. Using different animal groups as indicators, superficial Arthropod fauna and Herpetofauna, we found striking differences in the biodiversity levels of areas characterized by the application or by the lack of GAEC standards, with the latter being characterized by a significatively impoverished fauna. In particular, the set aside area and the buffer of riparian vegetation resulted of primary importance to allow higher biodiversity levels. Also the analysis of the biological quality of the soil, as assessed through the QBS-ar index based on edaphic micro-Arthropod fauna, indicated a higher quality of semi-natural habitats with respect to arable lands

Planificación y gestión de la comunicación para el mejoramiento de los procesos pedagógicos en la cátedra de Ciencias Sociales y Medicina de la FCM

El presente trabajo de innovación, se inscribe en una experiencia pedagógica de lo que significó en el contexto repentino de la pandemia, y la no posibilidad de presencialidad, para una cursada masiva de una cátedra universitaria. En este particular se recurrió a una propuesta de innovación educativa consistente en el diseño de una propuesta de comunicación de cátedra como una estrategia pedagógica para el mejoramiento de los procesos de enseñanza – aprendizaje para la asignatura de Ciencias Sociales y Medicina de la Facultad de Ciencias Médicas de la UNLP. Lo que continúa es el relato de lo que se llevó adelante en esta cátedra para que más de 3000 estudiantes por cuatrimestre no perdieran la posibilidad de continuar sus estudios superiores. A partir del abordaje analítico sobre la metodología utilizada en el dictado de la asignatura en el contexto de pandemia de Covid 19 durante el año 2020 y teniendo en cuenta el análisis realizado de manera continua en el devenir de la cursada, se propone el diseño de herramientas pedagógico-comunicacionales que tiene en cuenta un formato bimodal, con instancias presenciales y a distancia, sincrónicas y asincrónicas, las cuales tienen como fin posibilitar un mejor soporte pedagógico (“andamio”) a la cursada de Ciencias Sociales y Medicina. Las Ciencias Sociales y Humanísticas son de suma importancia en lo que refiere a la formación académica de futuras/os trabajadoras y trabajadores de la salud, ya que brindan herramientas que permiten comprender las diversas complejidades de las relaciones humanas. En este sentido, es que desde el inicio del proceso de formación, es necesario sentar las bases que generen la necesidad de comprender cada problema del proceso saludenfermedad-cuidado respetando su naturaleza compleja. La asignatura Ciencias Sociales y Medicina se basa en conocimientos teóricos académicos, pero haciéndolo al mismo tiempo, es decir conviviendo con las prácticas reales y concretas a las que la y el profesional deberá enfrentarse en su tarea laboral. El aprender haciendo permite recrear los saberes, construir lecturas propias y particulares para la resolución de los problemas, a la vez que posibilita descubrir nuevos saberes y prácticas. Por ello esta propuesta de innovación educativa se propone incorporar para el desarrollo de cada módulo temático del programa de la materia, recursos didácticos, pedagógico-comunicacionales en distintos formatos que enriquezcan las actividades presenciales, situadas en diferentes momentos de la cursada, y el entorno educativo en línea utilizado.Asesora pedagógica: Yésica Soledad ArenasFacultad de Ciencias Médica

Notes on the anatomy and phylogenetic position of Eremias ercolinii Lanza & Poggesi 1975 (Reptilia Lacertidae)

Detailed examination of the only known specimen of Eremias ercolinii Lanza & Poggesi 1975 shows that it has affinities within the Ophisops-Mesalina clade and, on present evidence, is best regarded as a member of Mesalina Gray 1838. However, its exact phylogenetic position will only be confirmed when more material becomes available. Limb proportions and scale form suggest that Mesalina ercolinii probably spends time in low, dense vegetation

The intriguing biogeographic pattern of the Italian wall lizard Podarcis siculus (Squamata: Lacertidae) in the Tuscan Archipelago reveals the existence of a new ancient insular clade

The Tuscan Archipelago is one of the most ancient and ecologically heterogeneous island systems in the Mediterranean. The biodiversity of these islands was strongly shaped by the Pliocene and Pleistocene sea regressions and transgression, resulting in different waves of colonization and isolation of species coming from the mainland. The Italian wall lizard, Podarcis siculus, is present on the following islands of the Tuscan Archipelago: Elba, Giglio, Giannutri, Capraia, Montecristo and Cerboli. The species in the area displays a relatively high morphological variability that in the past led to the description of several subspecies. In this study, both the genetic and morphological diversity of P. siculus of the Tuscan Archipelago were investigated. Specifically, the meristic characters and the dorsal pattern were analyzed, while the genetic relationships among these populations were explored with mtDNA and microsatellite nuclear markers to reconstruct the colonization history of the Archipelago. Our results converge in the identification of at least two different waves of colonization in the Archipelago: Elba, and the populations of Cerboli and Montecristo probably originate from historical introductions from mainland Tuscany, while those of Giglio and Capraia are surviving populations of an ancient lineage which colonized the Tuscan Archipelago during the Pliocene and which shares a common ancestry with the P. siculus populations of south-eastern Italy. Giannutri perhaps represents an interesting case of hybridization between the populations from mainland Tuscany and the Giglio-Capraia clade. Based on the high phenotypic and molecular distinctiveness of this ancient clade, these populations should be treated as distinct units deserving conservation and management efforts as well as further investigation to assess their taxonomic status
