Ai due volumi si collega intrinsecamente il terzo, che riunisce e ripubblica unitariamente due saggi apparsi rispettivamente nel 2017 e nel 2018, nati dal lavoro condotto in vista dell'edizione dell'opera fondamentale di Dante, una sorta di apparato critico che discute analiticamente i casi di scostamento del nuovo testo Malato rispetto al «canonico» Per le ragioni che consentono di definire canonico il testo di Petrocchi vedi più avanti. testo Petrocchi (compresi alcuni accorgimenti formali dichiarati una volta per tutte, evitando la ripetizione caso per caso). Quell'edizione si fonda sullo scrutinio dei codici dell'antica vulgata (27 codici giudicati appartenenti alla fase che precede la sistemazione del testo di Dante operata da Boccaccio, collocabili entro la data-limite del 1355) e sul presupposto (per la verità più asserito che provato) che nessuna lezione autentica del poema sia rimasta estranea alla tradizione più antica; Si sofferma sulla sostanziale inattendibilità di tale presupposto Angelo Eugenio Mecca, I Giovanni Boccaccio editore e commentatore di Dante i , in: I Dentro l'officina di Giovanni Boccaccio. Nella città di Dite, sesto cerchio, quello degli eretici, Cavalcante si meraviglia che suo figlio non sia accanto a Dante nell'impresa sovrumana del viaggio ultramondano; e, alla risposta di Dante che con riferimento a Guido usa il passato remoto I ebbe i (v. 63), si lancia nell'angosciata domanda dei versi 67-69 (con ripristino di I lume i «auspicato in luogo del tardo conciero I lome i »): Da una parte, largamente maggioritaria, la lettura: «... Sanz'essermi proferta / da te, la voglia tua discerno meglio» (Petrocchi; e anche Lanza [con la variante I da tte i ], Sanguineti [con la variante I senza i ], Inglese); dall'altra, diversamente: «... Sanz'essermi proferta, / Dante, la voglia tua discerno meglio» (Ossola). [Extracted from the article]

A house of worship abroad, far from one's homeland is always more than religion for migrants, it plays useful roles such as place for social aggregation, mutual aid, welfare, supporting in dealing with burocracy or learning the language of the country of arrival. In chief, it is the suitable framework to preserve customs and musical practices of the countries of origin, and a metropolitan city like Rome, which has a demographic record concerning the residence of immigrants, it is a living testimony about the cultural richness that diasporic minorities have provided in Italy. The soundscape thus is enhancing despite the increasingly flintiness of the laws hindering the integration of migrants in recent years. These places of worship, in Rome, lie in civil or industrial buildings that are assigned to different communities, or they are "shared churches" welcoming different Christian religions. This article is about three volumes, Esengo, Al?ān and Galoba published by Neoclassica, in the series te MusicheMigranti and explores some "treasure chest of the motherland", experiences of religious music in three case studies: the Congolese Catholic church in the centre of Rome, the Coptic Orthodox church in a garage in the Tiburtina area and the Georgian church in the Monti district.

Previous studies assessing the prevalence of COVID-19 sequelae in children have included either a small number of children or a short follow-up period, or have only focused on hospitalized children. We investigated the prevalence of persistent symptoms amongst children and assessed the risk factors, including the impact of variants. A prospective cohort study included children (≤18 years old) with PCR-confirmed SARS-CoV-2 infection. The participants were assessed via telephone and face-to-face visits at 1–5, 6–9 and 12 or more months post-SARS-CoV-2 diagnosis using the ISARIC COVID-19 follow-up survey. Of the 679 children enrolled, 51% were female; 488 were infected during the wild virus wave, and 29 were infected with the Alpha, 42 with the Delta and 120 with the Omicron variants. Fatigue (19%), headache (12%), insomnia (7.5%), muscle pain (6.9%) and confusion with concentration issues (6.8%) were the most common persistent symptoms. Families reported an overall improvement over time, with 0.7% of parents interviewed at 12 months or more of the follow-up period reporting a poor recovery. Patients that had not recovered by 6–9 months had a lower probability of recovering during the next follow-up period. Children infected with a variant or the wild virus had an overall similar rate of persistent symptoms (although the pattern of reported symptoms differed significantly) and recovery rates. Conclusions: Recovery rates after SARS-CoV-2 infection improved as time passed from the initial infection, ranging from 4% of children having poor recovery at 1–5 months' follow-up to 1.3% at 6–9 months and 0.7% at 12 months. The patterns of persistence changed according to the variants involved at the time of infection. This study reinforces that a subgroup of children develop long-lasting persistent symptoms and highlights the need for further studies investigating the reasons behind the development of PCC.

The essay aims to offer a brief profile of Mary Pittaluga, who graduated in 1916 with Lionello Venturi in Turin and then enrolled as a student of the Scuola di Specializzazione at Sapienza University in Rome, directed by Adolfo Venturi. Through some letters sent to Adolfo Venturi, the themes of the first researches started by the young scholar, who during the years has increasingly concentrated her research on contemporary art and modern artistic historiography, become evident.

They are not reports to be sent to Rome, but autobiographical texts by three Franciscan missionaries in Albania (17th cent.) meant for publication: they have been recovered in autograph manuscript form in the Order's Veneto provincial Archive. They are precious sources of information on customs and traditions, relations between the Serenissima and the Turks, language evidence with numerous Albanian inserts. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper discusses the Association of Amateurs of Photography in Rome (founded in 1888 and active until about 1922) and its Bulletin (published between May 1889 and February 1896). Similarly to other societies and periodicals abroad, both played a significant role in the modernization of Italian photographic culture at the turn of the 20th century. Based on contemporary bibliographic sources, the paper reconstructs the Association’s genesis, goals and organization, as well as the Bulletin’s importance for the dissemination of technical information and new ideas about the medium.

The author analyzes (in the perspective of ritual liminality) the iconography of the fragmentary frescoes found at the archeological site of the church in Derven (Kruja, uncovered in 2007 and lost in 2008). Once the scarcity of the apse's theme is verified (Deesis: Mary Kyriotissa and Child in her arms between Saints Peter and Paul), the author evaluates mid-fourteenth century stylistic comparisons in the Balkan area, as well as details of west-Adriatic influence. The proposed interpretation is linked to a progressive orientation of Albanian feudal lords towards Roman obedience, in light of the documents and the renewed worship of apostolic princes Peter and Paul's relics (holy heads) translated in 1369 in the papal cathedral of St. John Lateran in Rome. Pope Urban V promoted such worship - coinciding with the progressive return of the papal Holy See from Avignon to Rome - in an effort to strengthen the prestige of Petrine primacy.

The "Vittoriano" monument, dedicated to king Vittorio Emanuele II, is one of the most famous cultural heritage landmarks in Rome (Italy), even because it hosts the Tomb of the unknown soldier, monument to the Italian fallen in wars. It was designed by the architect Giuseppe Sacconi at the end of 19th century and since the beginning of its construction, it has been affected by cracks and deformations. In the last years, such phenomena have become more evident, especially on the western side of the building. With the aim of understanding the causes of the deformation process and making a diagnosis of the soil-structure interaction of the Monument, a specific project has been undertaken between CERI Sapienza and the Lazio Museum Network. Satellite ADInSAR was performed to infer the recent deformational history of the main parts of the monument, by using medium and high-resolution SAR images acquired in double orbital geometry (ascending and descending) and covering the last two decades. Through the support of selected geological and lithotechnical data it was possible to interpret the deformational dynamics of the Vittoriano. The overall investigations allowed to better define the volume and the structures that have been involved in the deformation mechanisms, which is currently driving the overall process, in order to address effective mitigation measures. They are capable of backward analysing the deformational process, reconstructing the evolution of a phenomenon and above all capable of easily investigating large areas. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

L'autore definisce quindi il corpus sul quale si fonda la ricerca [31-33]: si tratta degli oltre duecento testi toscani in prosa datati dal 1200 al 1300 (quasi la metà dei quali si concentra però nel periodo postremo 1295-1300) archiviati nel I Corpus OVI i (ai quali si aggiungono alcuni volgarizzamenti dal latino del I Corpus DiVo i ); testi, sufficientemente e opportunamente eterogenei dal punto di vista tipologico, che «vanno dai documenti mercantili (registri e lettere) alla prosa d'arte, dai testi giuridici alla prosa scientifica, dalle opere originali alle traduzioni dal latino e dal francese» (queste ultime, come si vedrà, molto importanti per un'indagine sul latinismo sintattico) [31]. Evidentemente non potrà che essere addebitato all'imitazione del modello latino il fatto che nel volgarizzamento orosiano vi siano diverse participiali con valore avversativo / eccettuativo, come quella appena riportata, che esprimono contemporaneità rispetto al tempo della frase reggente e rispetto alla quale si collocano a destra (laddove in generale nell'italiano antico i costrutti participiali corrispondono a subordinate temporali di anteriorità e si trovano a sinistra della reggente). In particolare, «si ha un'influenza semantica quando nel verbo reggente si verifica uno slittamento dall'originaria percezione fisica al valore cognitivo» [211]: è quanto accade con il verbo I vedere i (un esempio primotrecentesco: «niuno sia sì stolto che non I vegga la congiurazione esser palesata i », I Prima catilinaria volgarizzata i ), la cui scarsa ricorrenza in generale da un lato e prevalente attestazione in prose latineggianti dall'altro [213s.].

The article discusses ancient Roman history and medical literature, with a focus on 7th century bishop Saint Vindicianus, and the work "Epistula," written to Pentadius, which discusses an unnamed Hippocratic text. Topics discuss the "Epistula" as a translation of the pseudohippocratic work "De pulsibus et de temeramentis corporis humani," possible attributions of the "Epistula," as well as dating of the work and source texts; and the references of the "Epistula" to an even older medical tradition.

The article offers information on Playing Related Musculoskeletal disorders (PRMDs) which prevails among the professional musicians. It mentions that the musculoskeletal complaints associated with for cervical brachial syndrome was analyzed in the orchestral staff of the principal lyric theatre in Rome. It further informs that the results indicated a quality of life for the musicians without a clinical symptomatology.

The article offers a preliminary reconstruction of the "Ashkenazi nation" of Rome characteristics from the period of its constitution as "universitas" and "scola" to the Sack of Rome (1527). The author presents an analysis the Ashkenazim of Rome's socio-devotional organization: first with the French in the "universitas hebreorum theutonicorum et gallorum", and then in an organization of its own, whose ordinances regarding worship, published here, were written in 1541.

The article presents a preliminary archaeological and anthropological survey of the graves and women and girls from burial sites associated with the ancient Roman town of Crustumerium in the area of Latium in Italy. The history of the city in terms of its settlement are described. Pictures of the area's layout and associated archaeological sites such as necropoli are also included. Specific graves and their contents are highlighted with an emphasis on implications for gender roles and social status of women.

The article discusses graves of women at the archaeological site Francavilla Marittima in the area of Cosenza, Italy. It describes the Roman necropolis in which is located the grave primarily considered generally, and then one considers a specific woman's grave and the significance of the grave goods in it and how they were placed at the time of burial. A number of vases were placed on top of the body in the grave examined and so the author discusses possible reasons why this was done. A connection to the cult of Greek goddess Demeter is hypothesized.

The article discusses the popular image in Roman society of the Augustae, namely of the women associated with the royal household of the reigning emperor in Rome. It addresses the sources including the extant works of Roman historians, inscriptions, and coins. The typically negative portrayal of the ancient histories is then contrasted to the portrayal in Roman imperial propaganda via coinage. Cults associated with Roman empresses are next described and lead to a discussion of evidences of popular perceptions.

The lex agraria epigrafica (111 BC), governing the status of land in Italy (FIRA 1.103 s.) contains the complex phrase ager publicus populi Romani. The concept of ager publicus, in the sense of 'land of the res publica', and, in a democratic sense, as 'land of the people', may have been established during the three generations of the Scipios and the Gracchi. It was perhaps drafted by the 'Group of the Scipios'. The ideological concept of res publica, which corresponds to the lexical designation terra Italia, can probably be dated around the time of Cato. The term poplicus (cf. populus: 'able to carry arms') may have been used on historical grounds, because land taken by the Romans during the Republican era had been conquered by the army and was thus viewed as a form of war-booty. On the other hand, the expression ager poplicus populi Romani in the text of 111 BC, as a double syntax, may be explained by the incorporation of the concepts both of res publica and of ager publicus into the legal language.
