Pathways Through Applied and Computational Physics

By: Nicolò Barbero,Matteo Delfino,Carlo Palmisano,Gianfranco Zosi

This book is intended for undergraduates and young researchers who wish to understand the role that different branches of physics and mathematics play in the execution of actual experiments. The unique feature of the book is that all the subjects addressed are strictly interconnected within the context of the execution of a single experiment with very high accuracy, namely the redetermination of the Avogadro constant NA, one of the fundamental physical constants. The authors illustrate how the basic laws of physics are applied to describe the behavior of the quantities involved in the measurement of NA and explain the mathematical reasoning and computational tools that have been exploited. It is emphasized that all these quantities, although pertaining to a specific experiment, are of wide and general interest. The book is organized into chapters covering the interaction of electromagnetic radiation with single crystals, linear elasticity and anisotropy, propagation of thermal energy, anti-vibration mounting systems, and data analysis and B-spline interpolation. An essential feature is the focus on the role of Mathematica, an invaluable, fully integrated software environment for handling diverse scientific and technical computations.

Genoa's Freedom

Entrepreneurship, Republicanism, and the Spanish Atlantic

By: Matteo Salonia

This book investigates the economic, intellectual and political history of late medieval and early modern Genoa and the historical origins of the Genoese presence in the Spanish Atlantic. Salonia describes Genoa’s late medieval economic expansion and commercial networks through several case studies, from the Black Sea to southern England, and briefly compares it to the state-run military expansion of Venice’s empire. The author links the adaptability and entrepreneurial skills of Genoese merchants and businessmen to the constitutional history of the Genoese commune and to the specific idea of freedom progressively protected by its constitutions and embodied by institutions like the Bank of St. George. Moreover, this book offers an unprecedented account of the actions with which Ferdinand the Catholic protected Genoese merchants in his dominions and of the later, mutual understanding between the Genoese community and emperor Charles V during the Italian Wars, and in particular during the 1520s. These developments in Hispanic-Genoese diplomatic and economic relations are of great significance. The sixteenth-century Hispanic-Genoese alliance is important to understand the characteristics of Habsburg governance and the resilience of Genoa’s republican conservatism. Genoa’s republicanism (based on private wealth and private arms) contradicts historiographical narratives that assume the inevitability of the emergence of the modern, militarized and centralized state. It also shows the inadequacy of Tuscan-centric historical accounts of Renaissance republicanism. The last chapter of the book reveals the consequences of the 1528 Hispanic-Genoese alliance by considering case studies that illustrate the Genoese presence in the Spanish Americas, from Chile to Mexico, since the early stages of conquest and settlement.

Wound Healing, Fibrosis, and the Myofibroblast

A Historical and Biological Perspective

By: Giulio Gabbiani,Matteo Coen,Fabio Zampieri

Wound Healing, and the Myofibroblast: A Historical and Biological Perspective is the fruit of an interdisciplinary and international collaboration involving a historian of medicine (Dr. Zampieri), a physician (Dr. Coen), and a researcher (Prof. Gabbiani, world-renowned for his discovery of the myofibroblast). This book aims to draw a concise yet complete description of the conceptual evolution of wound healing, fibrosis and fibrosis-related pathologies from antiquity to present time, as well as commenting on the role of the myofibroblast and the key cell type essential for tissue repair and fibrosis (from its identification in 1971 throughout its 50-years-old history).By viewing this complex and century-long history from different perspectives, the book's authors aim to draw an exhaustive overview, with the hope of inspiring new and fruitful basic and clinical research. - Interdisciplinary collaboration: complementary views from medical historian, a physician and a researcher - A concise but detailed history of fibrosis, readers can discover the major scientific breakthroughs along this history - Includes the pathophysiology of various fibrotic diseases - Explores the role of myofibroblast in fibrosis development

A Huge Revolution of Theatrical Commerce

Walter Mocchi and the Italian Musical Theatre Business in South America

By: Matteo Paoletti

In the first third of the twentieth century, South America became the most important market for many European theatrical companies. When Italy found itself in various theatrical crises, Walter Mocchi created a transoceanic theatrical empire, using his business acumen to craft viable solutions. While his efforts were most visible in the sphere of opera, he played an extremely significant role in the promotion and circulation of popular forms of musical theatre (such as operetta) and staged world premieres of works by Italian superstars in Argentina (such as Mascagni's Isabeau), thus offering an early example of what Stephen Greenblatt calls 'cultural mobility'.

I Collegi per stranieri a/e Roma nell'età moderna

I. Cinque-settecento

By: Alessandro Boccolini,Matteo Sanfilippo,Péter Tusor

Lo studio della formazione nella prima età moderna di un numero notevole di collegi romani o comunque sotto la supervisione di Roma, dove si doveva formare il clero dei paesi eurpei ed extra-europei, offre due interessanti possibilità ai ricercatori. In primo luogo permetee di seguire le strategie della Santa Sede per diffondere e difendere la fede cattolica in Europa e in Medio Oriente. In secondo luogo facilita l'analisi della cospicua presenza straniera nella città, perché spesso tali collegi divenivano il fulcro di veri e propri gruppi immigrati. Queste due prospettive possono essere incrociate e comparate su scala europea, poiché i collegi romani non erano a sé stanti, ma facevano parte di reti continentali, ben rivelate dalle carte dell'Archivio storico di Propaganda Fide.
