Academic literature on the topic 'Solimena, Francesco'

The visit of Soliman Aga(1669) is the starting-point of the development of coffee culture in Paris. As the ambassador of Ottoman Empire, he was granted an audience with Louis XIV in Versailles. His task was to read the king’s thoughts : If my empire attacks Vienna, Louis will intervene in the war? But Soliman Aga did not accomplish his mission. He went and stayed in Paris for 10 months with more than two dozen attendants. During that time, in a Turkish room he served Turkish coffees very carefully to the ladies of Paris high society. Soliman Aga could infer information about Louis’s mind from their ongoing conversation in the room. Not long after that he left the city, Parisians fell deep into coffee drinking. One of the attendants of Soliman Aga, a person named Pascal, remained in Paris. With a large amount of coffee beans that his superior left, he started up coffee peddling in the Saint-Germain market and at the Quai de l’École. Pascal is a historical figure because of the relationship between Soliman Aga and the owner of Café Procope (Procopio), but innumerable and unidentified coffee peddlers of Levantine origins worked in the streets of European cities like London, Oxford, Paris etc. Pascal did not succeed in coffee business. He thought he could benefit from conducting his business in a market as people gathered there. But the temporary function of Saint-Germain market, like every market throughout France, was Pascal’s Achilles heel. His other business at Quai de l’École finally ended up getting no attention from Parisians. Nonetheless, Francesco Procopio dei Coltelli, an ex-employee of Pascal, returned to the Saint-Germain Market in order to sell coffee. He made money in that place and also obtained several licenses from the French government relevant to sale of coffee, tea, lemonade and alcoholic beverages. And he was planning new-concept coffeehouse that would far surpass Pascal’s peddling. Wide spaces, tapestried walls, chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, marble tables... he tried to make his Café Procope a center of brilliant social life. This coffeehouse was well located on the rue des Fossés-Saint-Germain, very close to the Théâtre-Français. The effect of people flocking to the theater was wonderful. Wealthy theater-goers, many famous actors, play writers became regular frequenters of that coffeehouse. It was critical factor directly connected to the success of Café Procope. If I may add one more thing, there is an extensive menu including tea, hot chocolate, wine, l’eau de cédrat, ices, sorbets, barvaroise etc. So, Café Procope was to be the first modern coffeehouse in Paris and would serve as a model to the Parisian coffeehouses that would follow in the years to come.(Daejin University)

Abstract Background Laparoscopically adjustable gastric bands (LAGB) have been widely employed as a means of weight loss in bariatric surgery over the past two decades. Although now largely superseded by other bariatric surgical techniques, complications from gastric bands continue to be encountered in surgical practice. We report an unusual case of small bowel obstruction due to an internal hernia caused by gastric band tubing resulting in closed loop small bowel obstruction. This is not commonly encountered and emergency general surgeons need to have a high index of suspicion for this condition as a possible cause for small bowel obstruction. Methods A 40 year old male presented with abdominal pain, vomiting and failure to open bowels or pass flatus for nine days. Twelve years previously (2008) he had had Roux n Y gastric bypass (RYGB), followed by by laparoscopic gastric banding of the RYGB about two years later (2010) also in the private sector. He had a soft but distended abdomen, and empty rectum on rectal examination. CT scan abdomen reported as: Multiple loops of distended small bowel demonstrated. No air seen in rectum, indicative of small bowel obstruction. No pneumoperitoneum. There is dilatation of the mid and distal small bowel seen to an apparent transition point in the mid abdomen where a loop is noted associated with the tubing for the inflation device for the gastric band. This appears to be centred on the cause of obstruction and appears tied around the base of mesentery and may be creating a closed loop obstruction, by having created an internal hernia. This patient had an internal hernia around loop of the gastric band tubing with resultant closed loop small bowel obstruction. The patient underwent diagnostic laparoscopy with ileo-caecal resection and primary anastomosis. He made successful recovery. Deflated gastric band remains in-situ. Results While small bowel obstruction is most commonly due to adhesions in individuals who have had previous laparotomy, it is important to bear in mind other causes such as internal hernias particularly in cases of those with history of previous gastric banding or Roux n Y gastric bypass. Early intervention may be necessary to reduce the likelihood of bowel ischaemia and bowel resection. Laparoscopy is a useful tool in the management of small bowel obstruction.

Il lavoro di ricerca ha inteso puntare l’accento sulla produzione di Francesco Solimena tra il 1674 e il 1706, sia al fine di comprovare l’apporto delle fonti e degli studi dal ‘700 ai giorni nostri, sia al fine di integrare la conoscenza della produzione dell’artista attraverso l’introduzione di nuove opere ritenute degne di attenzione nell’ambito della sua produzione, a partire dagli anni giovanili fino alla sua maturità. Un ruolo primario ha avuto la ricerca documentaria, condotta presso l’Archivio di Stato di Napoli e l’Archivio Storico della Fondazione del Banco di Napoli, che ha consentito di ampliare l’analisi dei rapporti con la committenza napoletana e veneziana.

Dopo aver preso in esame la produzione narrativa di Marmontel vista nel contesto letterario dell'epoca e indagato in particolare le tematiche del meraviglioso e della finzione orientale quali esse emergono nei "Contes moraux" (1755), l'elaborato propone la traduzione - corredata da note linguistico-storiche - di due racconti tratti da questa raccolta: "Soliman II" e "Le mari sylphe".

This work is based on the systematic reading and analysis of documents of political and diplomatic nature preserved in the State Archives of Venice. We started from the reports and dispatches of the Venetian representatives in Constantinople to observe in parallel the evolution of the powers through these competitors. My interest focused on the perception that the Venetian diplomats had of the behavior of the warring factions. The careful observation of the Ottoman power plots by the bailo and his entourage, was combined with a deeper political reflection, according to which the Venetians could understand what was the actual weight of the parties involved.
Questo lavoro si è basata sulla sistematica lettura e analisi dei documenti di natura politica e diplomatica conservati nell’Archivio di Stato di Venezia. Si è partiti dai resoconti (relazioni e dispacci) dei rappresentanti veneziani a Costantinopoli per osservare in parallelo l’evoluzione dei poteri a questo concorrenti. Il mio interesse si è concentrato sulla percezione che i diplomatici veneziani avevano del modo di comportarsi delle fazioni in lotta. L’osservazione attenta delle trame di potere ottomane da parte del bailo e del suo entourage si coniugava con una riflessione politica più profonda, in base alla quale i veneziani potevano capire quale era il peso effettivo delle parti coinvolte.
