Io Ancora Sono l’amore: algumas considerações sobre amor e adultério femininos no filme de Luca Guadagnino

Este trabalho analisa a protagonista do filme “Io sono l’amore”a partir do imaginário ocidental que impeliu a identidade das mulheres para o amor. Porno- tropic russo a ser inseminado pela civilização italiana, Emma será a propriedade erotizada que encontra no adultério a possibilidade de transgredir contra a identidadeque sustenta. Porém, se a infidelidade ameaça a ordem para qual as mulheres servem de base, elaainda colaboracom a inteligibilidade que liga as mulheres ao imaginário amoroso dito livre.

O tradicional e o erudito, o som e a escrita, a técnica e a arte. Uma Choradinha açoriana e uma Ungaresca italiana, com Saltarello

Um workshop para professores e estudantes de formação musical em torno de duas pequenas obras de Giorgio Mainerio (1535-1582) e de Eurico Carrapatoso (n. 1962), ambas compostas a partir de melodias tidas como tradicionais. Música tradicional e erudita, géneros contrastantes, diferentes carácteres, formas, dinâmicas, andamentos, compassos e sua alternância, pulsações e divisões, organizações sonoras tonais e modais, bordões e ostinati, polifonias vocais, percussões e movimento. Fazer música aprendida "de ouvido", sentida, percebida, cantada a vozes e partilhada com outros. O prazer de ouvir, de cantar e de guardar as partituras para mais tarde... tornar a cantar.

Risk perception about zoonoses in immigrants and Italian workers in Northwestern Italy

OBJETIVO: To assess factors associated with a low risk perception of zoonoses and to identify the gaps in knowledge about transmission and prevention of zoonoses in immigrant and Italian workers. MÉTODOS: A cross-sectional study with 175 workers in the agro-livestock and agro-food industry in Piemonte, Italy, was carried out. Data were collected with a semi-structured questionnaire based on knowledge, attitudes and practices (KAP) survey. We calculated proportions and used chi-square tests and odds ratios to assess associations. Eight individual interviews with key informants on immigration and public health in Piemonte were carried out. RESULTADOS: Participants were 82 (47%) Italians and 93 (53%) immigrants. Immigrants were from Romania, Morocco, Albania, India, China, Argentina, Peru, Macedonia, Ivory Coast, Ukraine and Colombia. The study revealed significant differences in risk perception at work (p = 0.001). We found associations between "not having correct knowledge about zoonoses" and the following variables: i. "being immigrant" OR = 4.1 (95%CI 1.7;9.8 p ≤ 0.01); ii. "working in the livestock industry" OR = 2.9 (95%CI 1.2;15.4 p = 0.01); and iii. "being an unqualified worker" OR = 4.4 (95%CI 2.9;15.4 p ≤ 0.01). Another strong association was found between being immigrant and having a low job qualification OR = 6.7 (IC95% 2.9 - 15.4 p ≤ 0.01). Asian immigrants were the group with the highest frequency of risky behaviours and the lowest level of knowledge about zoonoses. CONCLUSÕES: Our results indicate that there were differences in risk perception of zoonoses between the groups participating in our study. These results suggest that immigrant status can be considered a risk factor for having lower risk perception and lower level of knowledge of zoonoses at work. There is a relationship between this specific knowledge of zoonoses and lack of training and instruction among migrant populations. Our results stress the need for developing education programs on zoonoses prevention among the immigrant population in Piemonte, Italy.

Biogeographic and palaeoclimatic relationships of the Middle Pliocene ichthyofauna of the Samoggia Torrent (Bologna, Italy)

New Middle Pliocene ichthyofauna (2.4-2.2 Ma) from central-eastern Italy (Samoggia Torrent, Bologna) are described. These ichthyolites were found in a rather thin laminated layer that was deposited after the 2.4 Ma climatic crisis. The origin of this deposit, in which 31 taxa have been classified, is to be related to anoxic events on a regional and, probably, supraregional scale. This ichthyofaunistic association, which consists of living genera, is characterized by a clearcut predominance of mesopelagic species. The palaeoclimatic characters of these ichthyofauna indicate subtropical-type waters, while from a palaeobiogeographic point of view there is a close relationship with the present-day Atlantic-Mediterranean bioprovince. The Samoggia deposit has yielded six taxa that are absent or only occasionally present in the Mediterranean: one of these, Spratelloides gracilis, is exclusive of the Indo-Pacific bioprovince.

Enzymatic characterization of Vibrio alginolyticus strains isolated from bivalves harvested at Venice Lagoon (Italy) and Guanabara Bay (Brazil)

The aquatic ecosystem is the natural habitat of microorganisms including Vibrio and Aeromonas genus which are pathogenic to human and animals. In the present investigation the frequency of these bacteria and the enzymatic characteristics of 34 Vibrio alginolyticus strains isolated from bivalves harvested in Venice Lagoon (Italy) and Guanabara Bay (Brazil) were carried out from November 2003 to February 2004. The mussels' samples were submitted to enrichment in Alkaline Peptone Water (APW) added with 1% of sodium chloride (NaCl) and APW plus 3% NaCl incubated at 37 ºC for 18-24h. Following the samples were streaked onto TCBS Agar (Thiossulfate Citrate Bile Sucrose Agar) and the suspected colonies were submitted to biochemical characterization. Also, the Vibrio alginolyticus strains were evaluated to collagenase, elastase and chondroitinase production. The results showed the isolation of 127 microorganisms distributed as follows: 105 Vibrio strains such as V. alginolyticus (32.4%), V. harveyi (19%) and V. parahaemolyticus (7.6%), 20 Aeromonas strains and two Plesiomonas shigelloides were the main pathogens isolated. We observed the production of the three enzymes from V. alginolyticus strains considered as the main virulence factors of the bacteria, especially in cases of human dermatological infection.

A antiga igreja de Nossa Senhora do Loreto da nação italiana em Lisboa (1518‑1651) dados arquivísticos e algumas hipóteses sobre o edifício de Filippo Terzi

O presente artigo resultado da pesquisa de duas investigadoras no arquivo da Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Loreto em Lisboa e no Archivio Segreto Vaticano e pretende oferecer uma hipotética reconstrução da igreja original dos Italianos em Lisboa, erigida entre 1518 e 1597 e destruída no incêndio de 1651. Na análise da escassa documentação sobre o edifício desaparecido, onde é confirmada a participação do arquitecto-engenheiro Filippo Terzi, (Bolonha 1520-Setúbal 1597), propõe-se uma interpretação da política de representação nacional da comunidade italiana em Portugal na segunda metade de Quinhentos assim como das suas estreitas relações com Roma e a Santa Sé. Para além disso, salienta-se que na promoção do culto de Nossa Senhora do Loreto em Portugal, a comunidade italiana contribuiu na difusão do mesmo na América Latina.
