La polisemia y la multiplicidad de enfoques existentes respecto del estudio de la inteligencia muestran su complejidad, así como también, el valor que encierra su concepto, potencial invalorable para pensar problemáticas referidas a los ámbitos pedagógicos y/o clínicos. En este momento, se asiste a una división en la comunidad científica sobre la inteligencia entre aquellos que avanzan hacia descripciones sociales y culturales y aquellos que se esfuerzan en reunir evidencias acerca de sus fundamentos neurológicos y genéticos. Sin embargo, estas dos tradiciones no se oponen necesariamente. De esto trata este libro: en él se estudian tres líneas teóricas paradigmáticas y cuyos enfoques respectivos han sido considerados históricamente disímiles si no contrarios. Nos referimos a las teorías Psicoanalítica de Bleichmar, de las Inteligencias Múltiples de Gardner y Genética de Piaget.
This go-to reference work surveys the current state of knowledge in the field of metal soap-related degradation phenomena in art works. It contains detailed descriptions and images of the different phenomena and addresses the practical aspects of soap formation, preventive conservation, and treatment. The occurrence of metal soaps is one of the defining issues in the conservation of painted surfaces, and one that presently leaves innumerable open questions. It is estimated that around 70% of paintings in museum collections are affected by some form of metal soap-related degradation. In recent years, significant advances have been made in the detection and characterization of these compounds ...
An investigation of modes of receiving and responding to Greek culture in diverse contexts throughout early modern Europe, in order to encourage a more over-arching understanding of the multifaceted phenomenon of early modern Hellenism and its multiple receptions.
A cinquecento anni dallo svelamento della volta Sistina gli affreschi più celebri di Michelangelo non cessano di stimolare nuove e inedite letture. Secondo un taglio iconografico e iconologico aggiornato all'indagine contestuale, questo volume raccoglie i contributi più significativi degli studiosi che hanno affrontato con tagli diversi e complementari l'interpretazione dei significati del ciclo della Genesi, rivelandone la complessità simbolica e dottrinale, funzionale all'immaginazione creativa di Michelangelo, e il forte impatto comunicativo. I saggi di Antonio Paolucci, Maurizio Calvesi, Silvia Danesi Squarzina, Heinrich Pfeiffer, Thimoty Verdon, Gianluigi Colalucci, Costanza Barbieri...
Interconnected investigations between conservators, historians, heritage scientists and museum professionals centre on objects that were essential to medieval Christianity in Scandinavia (c. 1100‒1530). Through new and diverse physical data from polychrome sculptures, shrines, winged altarpieces and painted banners, the authors probe a range of issues and problems, from original devotional functions and changing appearances, to the impacts of changing liturgies, locations and priorities. This book highlights the diversity of theoretical and practical approaches to sacred medieval religious objects, and brings together new findings related to the transformations of these objects since the Reformations. Contributors are Karl Christian Alvestad, Alexandra Böhme, David Buti, Francesco Caruso, Aoife Daly, Tine Frøysaker, Elina Gertsman, Irka Hajdas, Poul Grinder Hansen, Karoline Kjesrud, Lena Liepe, Hana Lukasova, Maite Maguregui, Austin Nevin, Elena Platania, Anne Irene Riisøy, Katrine S. Scharffenberg, Jón Viðar Sigurðsson, Calin Constantin Steindal, Noëlle L.W. Streeton, Einar Uggerud, Anna Vila, and Jørgen Wadum.
This book describes the current state of international grape genomics, with a focus on the latest findings, tools and strategies employed in genome sequencing and analysis, and genetic mapping of important agronomic traits. It also discusses how these are having a direct impact on outcomes for grape breeders and the international grape research community. While V. vinifera is a model species, it is not always appreciated that its cultivation usually requires the use of other Vitis species as rootstocks. The book discusses genetic diversity within the Vitis genus, the available genetic resources for breeding, and the available genomic resources for other Vitis species. Grapes (Vitis vinifera ...
The series Topics in Current Chemistry Collections presents critical reviews from the journal Topics in Current Chemistry organized in topical volumes. The scope of coverage is all areas of chemical science including the interfaces with related disciplines such as biology, medicine and materials science. The goal of each thematic volume is to give the non-specialist reader, whether in academia or industry, a comprehensive insight into an area where new research is emerging which is of interest to a larger scientific audience.Each review within the volume critically surveys one aspect of that topic and places it within the context of the volume as a whole. The most significant developments of the last 5 to 10 years are presented using selected examples to illustrate the principles discussed. The coverage is not intended to be an exhaustive summary of the field or include large quantities of data, but should rather be conceptual, concentrating on the methodological thinking that will allow the non-specialist reader to understand the information presented. Contributions also offer an outlook on potential future developments in the field.
This collection, presented to Michael Friedrich in honour of his academic career at of the Centre for the Study of Manuscript Cultures, traces key concepts that scholars associated with the Centre have developed and refined for the systematic study of manuscript cultures. At the same time, the contributions showcase the possibilities of expanding the traditional subject of ‘manuscripts’ to the larger perspective of ‘written artefacts’.
