  • Curriculum Vitae Breve
    Curriculum Vitae Breve DANIELA PANTOSTI Istituto Nazionale di Geofisica e Vulcanologia Via di Vigna Murata 605 00143 Roma (Italy) coniugata, madre di due figli [email protected] http://www.roma1.ingv.it/INGV/Members/pantosti Sommario Ha iniziato la sua formazione in Geologia Strutturale e Geomorfologia Tettonica presso l’Università di Roma “La Sapienza”, successivamente si è focalizzata sulla Paleosismologia come possibile input alle stime di pericolosità sismica. La sua attività di ricerca all’INGV è dedicata allo sviluppo di studi di dettaglio su faglie attive, principalmente attraverso la geomorfologia tettonica e la Paleosismologia. Tali studi sono finalizzati alla caratterizzazione delle sorgenti sismogenetiche e del loro comportamento sismogenetico, ed allo sviluppo di modelli di segmentazione e ricorrenza. Per aumentare le informazioni utili a descrivere in modo completo la storia sismica di una regione, ha recentemente posto grande attenzione anche allo studio degli effetti e depositi cosismici non direttamente connessi alla faglia (Paleosismologia off fault: liquefazioni, depositi di tsunami, subsidenza/sollevamento relativo ecc.). Anche i risultati di queste attività sono utilizzati come input per le stime di pericolosità sismica e da tsunami e vengono utilizzati per verificare il relativo impatto nei modelli finali. In questi ambiti ha sempre sostenuto lo sviluppo e l’integrazione delle tecniche classiche osservative geologiche con quelle più analitiche, sviluppate in laboratorio in modo particolare per porre vincoli

  • Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology
    The Ruins of Paradise: Studies in Early Mediterranean Poetics and Cosmology by Matthew M. Newman A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Classical Studies) in the University of Michigan 2015 Doctoral Committee: Professor Richard Janko, Chair Professor Sara L. Ahbel-Rappe Professor Gary M. Beckman Associate Professor Benjamin W. Fortson Professor Ruth S. Scodel Bind us in time, O Seasons clear, and awe. O minstrel galleons of Carib fire, Bequeath us to no earthly shore until Is answered in the vortex of our grave The seal’s wide spindrift gaze toward paradise. (from Hart Crane’s Voyages, II) For Mom and Dad ii Acknowledgments I fear that what follows this preface will appear quite like one of the disorderly monsters it investigates. But should you find anything in this work compelling on account of its being lucid, know that I am not responsible. Not long ago, you see, I was brought up on charges of obscurantisme, although the only “terroristic” aspects of it were self- directed—“Vous avez mal compris; vous êtes idiot.”1 But I’ve been rehabilitated, or perhaps, like Aphrodite in Iliad 5 (if you buy my reading), habilitated for the first time, to the joys of clearer prose. My committee is responsible for this, especially my chair Richard Janko and he who first intervened, Benjamin Fortson. I thank them. If something in here should appear refined, again this is likely owing to the good taste of my committee. And if something should appear peculiarly sensitive, empathic even, then it was the humanity of my committee that enabled, or at least amplified, this, too.

Grape cultivation and wine making have a distinguished place in the history of Western civilization. The ancient Greeks gave an importance to wine, which greatly exceeded its role as a beverage. The production of wine and table grape has been an important part of Greek culture for many centuries. Nowadays Greece holds the 13th place on vineyard surface area. It is one of the first table grape producing (4th) countries in Europe, first producer of currants (Black Corinth) of the world production and eighth exported country in dried grapes worldwide.

Πελοπόννησος) ΤΡΙΚΟΛΑΣ Κ.1 ΚΑΙ ΑΛΕΞΟΥΛΗ-ΛΕΙΒΑΔΙΤΗ Α.1 ABSTRACT The geological research in the greater areas of Aigialia and Kalavryta resulted that neotectonic evolution occurred in two phases; the first one took place from Upper Miocene to Lower-Middle Pleis­ tocene and the second from Lower-Middle Pleistocene up to now. The deposits and the flow direction of Vouraikos river are controlled by the neotectonic evolution of the region. During the first phase of neotectonic alteration in Lower Pleiocene - Lower Pleistocene, Vouraikos river deposited fluvial sediments of large width and extent, in the areas of M. Spilaio and Ano Diakopto in Kalavryta's ditch, and flowed into the greater area of Ano Diakopto - Akrata in marine or lacustrine environment.
