The present study focuses on an experience in collaborative, literary translation, supported by the activities and resources of the Moodle online learning platform. The experience was carried out during the Covid-19 pandemic. Although the pandemic may well have encouraged the use of learning platforms, the experience illustrated in the study shows that Moodle offered activities and resources which proved effective in training courses in collaborative literary translation. The proactive pedagogical approach adopted in the study posits translation as a contextualized and interactional cognitive activity and advocates a transition towards authentically transformational approaches in the training of translators (Kiraly, 2000).

Introduction to the dossier Inclusive and Student-Centred Learning in Linguistics and Translation: Practices in Higher Education.

In 1579 the Giunta printers published in Florence two coeval editions of Raffaello Gualterotti’s Feste nelle nozze. The contribution presents the peculiarities of the two publications with, in the Appendix, a special focus on the etchings that accompany the second edition.

Notes on the stay of Mikołaj Tomicki and some of his compatriots in Padua The purpose of the work presented here is to enucleate some details of the Padua sojourn of Mikołaj Tomicki, dedicatee, moreover, as is well known, of a sonnet by Mikołaj Sęp Szarzyński, and of his friendships, on the basis of primary sources, especially the letters addressed to him by Antonio Maria Graziani and Giulio Poggiani.

This article provides a study of the French translation of Rodari’s Grammatica della Fantasia by Roger Salomon. Besides analysing the translator’s peritexts (translator’s notes, appendix), we dwell on examples of addition of elements in the target text. While translation terminology distinguishes, often critically, between addition and amplification, sometimes it may be difficult to evaluate the motivations and legitimacy of the translator's procedure: hence the need to combine translatological, paratextual and archival data in research on translation and translation genetics.

This article aims to review literature on CLIL (Content and Language Integrated Learning) theory and practice, particularly during Science classes using English as a foreign language. In Europe, the CLIL approach – directed at the acquisition of both the additional Language and subject Content – has arisen to promote foreign language learning, but it could also be beneficial for the specific subject education. To support learners in understanding scientific information and taking responsible socio-scientific decisions, Science communication (its verbal language and other representation modes) should be emphasised over facts and formulas and addressed as a key competence. Studying CLIL programmes, which nurture language learning/use within Science education, becomes relevant. As a state of the art this work shows aspects of CLIL emergence and evolution and research gaps, such as CLIL as an educational methodology to enhance Science teaching. This study contributes to research on CLIL Science and language-focused Science education towards scientific literacy.

In this article, a comparative analysis of the play Cendrillon, by Joël Pommerat, and its Italian translation, Cenerentola, is carried out to study the rendering in the target language of some typical features of spontaneous oral which are characteristic of the play. The transfer of these traits from French to Italian comes up against the asymmetries inherent to the two languages, as the diaphasic variation is less clearly marked in Italian.

Introduzione: Il tumore al seno rappresenta in Italia e in molti Paesi Occidentali la forma neoplastica più frequente tra le donne, sia in termini di nuove diagnosi che di numero di decessi oncologici. Nel 2019 sono stati diagnosticati in Italia circa 53000 nuovi casi di carcinoma della mammella femminile. Obiettivo: Questo studio ha l’obiettivo di indagare sulla prevenzione del tumore al seno, in un campione di donne italiane. Materiali e Metodi: Lo studio è stato eseguito a partire da Novembre 2018 fino ad Aprile 2019. Il campione considerato di tipo casuale, è composto da 100 donne alle quali è stato consegnato il questionario, anonimo ed auto-compilato, previa spiegazione della finalità particolare delle domande e della finalità generale dello studio assicurando l’anonimato nell’utilizzo dei dati. Il questionario, “Champion’s Health Belief Model Scale”, è costituito da 31 item di cui: 3 per la suscettibilità, 6 per la gravità, 4 per i benefici percepiti, 8 per le barriere percepite e 10 per l’autoefficacia. Risultati: Dal presente studio è emerso che meno della metà (46%) delle donne pratica l’autopalpazione saltuariamente o mensilmente. Sebbene il 70% di donne abbia riportato alti livelli di percezione della gravità del cancro, la maggior parte di loro ha riportato livelli incerti di suscettibilità. È inoltre emerso che le cause che portano la donna a non eseguire l’autopalpazione sono legate all’incapacità di esaminare il proprio seno, o al senso di inadeguatezza. Conclusioni: Dai dati analizzati emerge la necessità di introdurre programmi educativi per aumentare la fiducia ed identificare gli ostacoli che impediscono alle donne italiane di eseguire l’autopalpazione, effettuando una preventiva valutazione sulla conoscenza delle donne a riguardo e modificando eventuali idee errate.

In this article, we wish to introduce the research we are currently conducting on a parallel corpus of information books for children, translated from French into Italian. After defining this genre from both an editorial and an educational perspective, we shall focus on one of the works making up our corpus, La poubelle et le recyclage à petits pas, in order to highlight and discuss the strategies adopted in its Italian translation, La raccolta differenziata a piccoli passi. Building on such preliminary findings, we shall then attempt to advance a few suggestions about the possible developments to be expected from the study of the whole corpus and to outline its future direction.

Iscrizioni cd. minori per la loro natura quotidiana, realizzate ante o post cocturam su argilla e ceramica offrono esempi eterogenei di impiego della scrittura. La loro schedatura in un database on-line offre una catalogazione di moltissime testimonianze, disperse dal punto di vista areale e/o cronologico. Si presentano in questa sede alcuni esempi di cultura "trasversale", in termini di cultura materiale, tra il mondo fenicio-punico e il mondo classico greco-romano. Le interazioni tra i diversi ambiti culturali posso esplicarsi nell'ambito della scrittura, del supporto scrittorio o dell'onomastica. In questo contributo preliminare si presenta una breve panoramica della problematica, che merita ulteriori futuri approfondimenti.

The aim of this epidemiological study is to evaluate how type of delivery, skin-to-skin contact and maternal nationality influence breastfeeding practices of newborns at discharge in a large population of babies born in the Baby-Friendly Hospital of San Bonifacio, Verona, Italy. Data were collected for all healthy newborns consecutively born over a period of three years, regarding type of delivery, feeding at hospital discharge, skin-to-skin procedure, and for a smaller group maternal nationality was recorded as well. The rate of exclusive breastfeeding in a group of 6017 newborns was 82.1%, higher among babies born by vaginal delivery than in those born by cesarean section (84.9% vs 65%; P

Our analysis compares French and Italian theatre for young people, and focuses on differences between the two, especially when it comes to publishing plays for young audience. While France has been supporting the publication of plays for young audiences since the late 1980s, involving a growing number of publishing houses, Italy is still showing modest interest in publishing plays for young people, as our investigation shows.

We report the case of a child with Noonan syndrome affected by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and severe obstructive sleep apnea syndrome. The patient was born at 35 weeks gestational age (birth weight 3,340 g) and required mechanical ventilation. At the age of 4 years and 2 months, he was referred to our center for sleep cardiorespiratory polygraphy. His parents reported frequent obstructive sleep apnea, noisy respiration and snoring, oral breathing and falling asleep during the day. They were anxious that the child could die from asphyxiation during sleep. After the polygraph study had started, the patient began napping and immediately the polygraph showed several bouts of obstructive apnea and oxygen desaturation. He was referred for urgent adenotomy. At the age of 4 years and 5 months (3 months after surgery), the symptomatology and repeat sleep polygraph study showed a marked improvement. In conclusion, obstructive sleep apnea is a very hazardous condition for children with Noonan syndrome. They are a population at risk because of facial problems and cardiopathy. The real global incidence of obstructive sleep apnea syndrome in these children is unknown.

The paper focuses on the Greek and Semitic inscriptions found during the excavation of the Peristyle Building in the south-west quarter of Palmyra, which was carried out by the Italian-Syrian archaeological joint mission Pal.M.A.I.S. between 2008 and 2010. The inscriptions, incised or painted on stone and pottery, add new interesting data on the historical development of the building, dated between the late 2nd - 3rd and the 8th centuries AD.

Il contributo propone un'analisi della storia cremasca alla luce dei dati forniti dai registri di provvisione, i più antichi dei quali risalgono al 1449, e sottolineando gli aspetti istituzionali connessi, in particolare, alla struttura e alla composizione delle magistrature civiche.

The EIMAWA Mission is made up of a multidisciplinary team that includes, in addition to egyptologists, the presence of experts from disciplines such as geomatics, forensic anthropology and radiology, but also archaeozoology, archaeobotany, chemistry and restoration, etc. Each excavation campaign ends with a huge mass of technical documentation that includes heterogeneous materials formulated by many different researchers. Precisely this heterogeneity of information has generated the need to adopt a centralized repository that would allow the management and extraction of knowledge from the data acquired during the excavations. For the organization, sharing and subsequent study a collaborative platform was modeled, thanks to the help of the IT experts of the mission created with open source software tools, which allows the storage and processing of the aforementioned data.

Numa orientação CTS do currículo de Ciências almeja-se o desenvolvimento da literacia científica dos alunos, que os torne sujeitos participantes envolvidos na discussão responsável de questões socio-científicas. Para participar, é fundamental saber comunicar sobre as Ciências e através delas, e usar outras línguas para a discussão ao nível global. Este trabalho – alicerçado numa perspetiva socio-construtivista da aprendizagem das Línguas estrangeiras e das Ciências – visa compreender, no âmbito de um projeto escolar no 3.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico, o cruzamento entre a construção de conceitos e contextos das Ciências com a(s) sua(s) “língua(s)” e a prática do Inglês na mesma sala de aula, através de uma abordagem que confere mais importância à Língua (CLIL), em geral e das Ciências. Trata-se de um estudo de caso descritivo-interpretativo que envolve quatro turmas, duas professoras de Ciências Naturais e uma de Inglês. Os dados foram recolhidos através de inquérito por entrevista (professoras) e por questionário (alunos) e através da observação. Serão apresentadas as respostas dos alunos às questões relacionadas com as Ciências, o Inglês e a sua articulação, e integradas com as informações preliminares resultantes de observações, as quais pretendem caraterizar o contexto. Recorreu-se à análise de conteúdo para interpretar as respostas abertas e à análise estatística para as fechadas. Emergem evidências de que esta abordagem fomenta a comunicação e consciencialização em e sobre Ciência. Considera-se oportuno continuar a recolha/análise dos dados para um cruzamento mais complexo das fontes, e para aprofundar como a presença de uma outra língua pode enriquecer a cultura científica.

EnVulnerability of cultural properties can be significantly reduced through specific disaster plans, focused on safeguarding cultural assets in emergency situations. The effectiveness of these plans may be enhanced by the use of innovative technologies for visualization and verification purposes. In this paper we propose an alternative application of the dynamic simulation of large crowds for emergency planning in open spaces. We argue that applications related to the real-time simulation and visualization of crowds might be used also for cultural heritage risk preparedness. The application we propose aims to highlight the need of designing different paths for different goals. In an emergency plan related to cultural assets, crowd dynamics simulation could be used to plan different routes with specific functions: paths for evacuating visitors, and paths for evacuating object. Based on the identification of the first ones, which represent the main priority, the second ones can be designed, as alternative and complementary routes allowing cultural heritage operators to immediately take part in emergency operations and to work over objects salvage actions, without obstructing people salvage or escaping activities.An evaluation of the application of such techniques is reported, with the experimental validation of the behavioral model and the related simulation planned as future work. A possible application of this technique for training operators is also outlined.ItLa vulnerabilità dei beni culturali può essere significativamente ridotta attraverso piani di emergenza specifici, concentrati sulla salvaguardia dei beni in situazioni di emergenza. L’efficacia di questi piani può essere migliorata attraverso l’uso di tecnologie innovative per scopi di visualizzazione e verifica. In questo articolo viene proposta un’applicazione alternativa della simulazione dinamica di folle digitali per la pianificazione delle emergenze in spazi aperti; la simulazione e la visualizzazione in tempo reale di folle digitali potrebbero infatti essere utilizzate anche per la preparazione al rischio del patrimonio culturale. In un piano di emergenza relativo ai beni culturali, la simulazione dinamica del comportamento di una folla potrebbe essere usata per pianificare itinerari diversi con specifiche funzioni: percorsi per l’evacuazione dei visitatori, e percorsi per l’evacuazione degli oggetti d’arte. Sulla base della individuazione dei primi, che rappresentano la principale priorità, possono essere progettati i secondi come percorsi alternativi e complementari che consentono agli operatori culturali di prendere immediatamente parte alle operazioni di emergenza e di lavorare sulle azioni di recupero degli oggetti, senza ostacolare le operazioni di salvataggio delle persone. Viene infine riportata una valutazione qualitativa dell’applicazione di tale tecnica, così come la descrizione di una sua possibile applicazione per scopi di formazione degli operatori.
