Grammatical gender and linguistic complexity II
The many facets of grammatical gender remain one of the most fruitful areas of linguistic research, and pose fascinating questions about the origins and development of complexity in language. The present work is a two-volume collection of 13 chapters on the topic of grammatical gender seen through the prism of linguistic complexity. The contributions discuss what counts as complex and/or simple in grammatical gender systems, whether the distribution of gender systems across the world’s languages relates to the language ecology and social history of speech communities. Contributors demonstrate how the complexity of gender systems can be studied synchronically, both in individual languages a...
Distributed Computing and Monitoring Technologies for Older Patients
This book summarizes various approaches for the automatic detection of health threats to older patients at home living alone. The text begins by briefly describing those who would most benefit from healthcare supervision. The book then summarizes possible scenarios for monitoring an older patient at home, deriving the common functional requirements for monitoring technology. Next, the work identifies the state of the art of technological monitoring approaches that are practically applicable to geriatric patients. A survey is presented on a range of such interdisciplinary fields as smart homes, telemonitoring, ambient intelligence, ambient assisted living, gerontechnology, and aging-in-place technology. The book discusses relevant experimental studies, highlighting the application of sensor fusion, signal processing and machine learning techniques. Finally, the text discusses future challenges, offering a number of suggestions for further research directions.

Cers
"Il titolo dell'opera, Cers, implica un viatico romantico, simbolico ed evocativo: il nome di un vento che trasporti questi componimenti in fuga, verso altri territori, altre culture, lettori, autori. All'interno di Cers (Vento francese che soffia da nord-ovest in Languedoc inferiore; freddo in inverno, caldo in estate, porta bel tempo. È anche chiamato Narbonne in onore della regione da cui proviene.) si susseguono, in ordine alfabetico: Francesca Di Gioia con Portate dal vento; Anna Latagliata con Tempo Astrale; Giuseppe Perrone con Le storie che non vedo; Riccardo Piroddi con Cronache della meraviglia; Larisa Elena Rotaru con Cuore Libero; Umberto Viviani con Poesie a km zero." (tratto dalla prefazione di Giuseppe Aletti)

Francesca Woodman's Dark Gaze
Focusing on the later work of the American photographer Francesca Woodman (1958-1981), Claire Raymond takes up the question of the disintegrative condition of the art she produced in the last year of her life. Departing from the techniques of her earlier compositions, Woodman worked in the diazotype process for many of these late pieces, most importantly the monumental Blueprint for a Temple. Raymond shows that through her use of diazotype, a medium that breaks down when exposed to light, Woodman created art that is both supremely evocative aesthetically and inherently unstable physically. Woodman, Raymond contends, was imaginatively responding to the end of the durable image, a historical r...
