Le regard de Walter Benjamin sur Le Stryge de Charles Meryon: antiquité, modernité, allégorie.

Pour Benjamin, Méryon devient une source iconographique privilégiée sur le passage de la première à la seconde moitié du XIXe siècle, non seulement par rapport à Baudelaire, mais aussi pour une série de problèmes théoriques : l’allégorie, le rapport entre modernité et Antiquité, la critique du progrès, le rapport des images au texte et du texte dans l’image, les enjeux complexes entre la photographie et la gravure. Benjamin apprend à « regarder » les Eaux-fortes sur Paris à travers Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Baudelaire et Auguste Blanqui : le cas de la première planche, Le Stryge, véritable fantasmagorie du XIXe siècle, est exemplaire.Für Walter Benjamin bietet Méryon eine reichhaltige ikonographische Dokumentation zum Übergang von der ersten zur zweiten Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts, nicht nur im Hinblick auf Baudelaire, aber auch in Bezug auf einige theoretische Fragen : Allegorie, Beziehung zwischen Moderne und Antike, Kritik des Fortschritts, Verhältnis von Text und Bild, komplexe Zielsetzungen zwischen Fotografie und Kunstdruck. Benjamin übt sich also in dem Blick auf Meryons Radierungen Eaux-fortes sur Paris durch die Lektüre von Edgar Allan Poe, Charles Baudelaire und Auguste Blanqui : Die erste Tafel, die den Stryge abbildet (Wasserspeier in Form eines Vogel-Dämons) erweist sich besonders repräsentativ für die fantastische Vision des 19. Jahrhunderts.Für Walter Benjamin bietet Méryon eine reichhaltige ikonographische Dokumentation zum Übergang von der ersten zur zweiten Mitte des 19.

Intermediate care units in progressive patient care model: a systematic literature review

Background: Progressive patient care (PPC) has been defined as a systematic classification and segregation of patients based on their medical and nursing needs. Aim of the present research was to perform a systematic literature review about existing medical intermediate care unit organizational models and their performance strengths and weaknesses with a specific focus on Italian implementation, respect to US model. Methods: Databases PubMed, Cinahl, Google and Google Scholar were searched until September 2017. The search was limited to Italian and English studies. All study design are included in the review. Results: Ten studies were included in the review. The American studies showed, after the PPC reorganization, an increase in level of satisfaction and nursing care, a reduction in average length of stay, costs and tensions between nurses and an improvement in nurse-physician communication. An Italian study reported the results of a project carried out in three case studies (Forlì, Foligno and Pontedera hospital), redesigning hospital patient flow logistics around the concept of intensity of care: in all three cases, after the reorganization, an increase in bed occupancy rate (before: 71%,81%,65%; after: 78%,84%,82%, respectively) and in hospital case-mix complexity (average DRG weight - before: 0.99,1.07,1.12; after: 1.19,1.09,1.61, respectively) and a reduction in turn-over ratio (before: 2.5,1.4,2.8; after: 1.5,1.2,1.7, respectively) was recorded. Considering Italian healthcare professionals’ point of view, majority of internists supported a hospital remodeling according to PPC model. Conclusions: The PPC model, theorized in US, has found several applications in Italian regional realities. Improvements in quality of care, appropriateness and productivity in healthcare facilities, that adopted the PPC program, were observed

The impact of pictorial health warnings (PHW) on tobacco packages: the first quasi-experimental field trial after the implementation of the law in Italy

Background. The aim of the study was to evaluate in the Italian smokers, the effects of implementation of the law about Pictorial Health Warnings (PHWs) on tobacco products. Methods. A quasi-experimental longitudinal design was conducted between 2016 and 2017. The data were collected before (pre-PHW/Wave 1) and after (post-PHW/Wave 2) the implementation of the law. The adopted questionnaire included impact of advertisement (Label Impact Index, LII), quitting behavior and knowledge of tobacco related diseases.Results. 455 respondents completed both the Waves. 7.7% of smokers declared to have stopped smoking in Wave 2 and 29% of these declared the PHWs as one of the reasons to quit. The knowledge of tobacco related diseases was significantly (p <0.001) increased from Wave 1 to Wave 2 (58% versus 72%), similarly the LII (mean = 26.9, SD = 16.7 and mean = 40.4, SD = 16.2).Conclusion. Tobacco addiction is a problem that needs to be addressed from different angles. PHWs confirm their complementary role as a support for smokers along with other strategies such as text warnings and the tobacco quit line of the Istituto Superiore di Sanità (Italian National Institute of Health) reported on the packages. Nonetheless, over the years these measures have been not enough and policy makers should consider more strategies synergistically acting in the fight against tabagism.

Lucciole e farfalle per un’immagine dialettica

This text as a postscript to the essay by Georges Didi Huberman who invites us to consider overturning a note metaphor of the disappearance of fireflies Pasolini speaks of "des Lucioles Survivance" Didi Huberman's provocation  is to resume the expression of Pasolini's writings  viewed by Guy Debord and Walter Benjamin refers to the political situation in Italy today and would like to make us reflect on a very topical subject as Berlusconi's Italy and a possible "resistance". This project intends to make a story pointing out that this symptom Sciascia had already used the metaphor about the Moro murder in the seventies after the death of Pasolini and it is important to remember and retrace your policy for this analysis that the book invites us to do, but do not forget some crucial steps to avoid the risk of the “eternal return of the same”
