Abstract:
La ricerca propone una interpretazione della prassi socio-politica di un gruppo vegano antispecista, attraverso l'osservazione partecipante sul campo. L'analisi evidenzia le criticità del gruppo osservato, rilevate nella raccolta della documentazione etnografica. Utile strumento di riflessione è la presentazione della rassegna degli studi sull'antispecismo politico ed etico, anche grazie a una lettura ecovegfemminista.

Abstract:
La tesi cerca di "interrogare " dal punto di vista geografico, antropologico e letterario la figura di Goffredo Parise dal 1970 al 1986. Scopo dello scritto è il tentativo di " indagare " come abitare un luogo significhi interagire in modo profondo non solo con un'area geografica precisa ma con rapporti interpersonali significativi in una rete di micro-esperienze cariche di "storie ". Abitare un luogo, sentirsi a casa come atto di costruzione di tale rete.

Abstract:
La ricerca, svoltasi nel contesto angolano post-bellico, tra la capitale Luanda e Huambo, sull'Altopiano Centrale, è focalizzata sulla ricostruzione, a seguito del lungo conflitto che ha interessato il Paese. Una ricostruzione dei vissuti lacerati dei singoli individui e dei legami saldi della socialità, che coesiste e spesso collide con i progetti di ricostruzione e modernizzazione spinta, intrapresi dal Governo Centrale. La ricerca sul campo, orientando l'analisi alle pratiche, all'agency, ha permesso di inquadrare l'attuale processo di transizione da un recente passato di deprivazioni, viol

Abstract:
La tesi coniuga due filoni di analisi antropologica, l’antropologia urbana e l’antropologia dei sensi, concentrandosi sul problema di costruire un’etnografia del paesaggio sonoro di una città. Essa si propone, dunque, di delineare un’esplorazione uditiva della medina di Fez, seguendo le voci della città (espressione parafrasata da Le voci di Marrakech di Elias Canetti) fino ad individuare le pratiche sonore quotidiane come nodi di una rete. La rete urbana, però, non è composta solo di suoni, ma anche e soprattutto di significati. In questo senso, la prima fonte di suoni significanti e pregnant

Le siheyuan sono le abitazioni con cortile tipiche del nord della Cina e in particolare della città di Pechino. La disposizione in file ordinate di queste abitazioni crea dei vicoli chiamati Hutong. La tesi si propone di ricostruire la storia dei mutamenti sociali all'interno delle case su cortile e nei vicoli, e di fornire uno studio etnografico dello spazio domestico delle siheyuan e dei quartieri pechinesi al giorno d'oggi.

Questo lavoro raccoglie i risultati di una doppia indagine svolta sul campo a Stolvizza di Resia (UD), piccola comunità montana slavofona. Da una parte, la raccolta etnografica degli ultimi vocaboli del linguaggio segreto degli antichi merciai ambulanti e degli arrotini ha permesso diverse riflessioni a carattere etnolinguistico. Dall’altra, l’analisi antropologica della dimensione onirica - in particolare delle donne - ha consentito di approfondire la sfera sacra legata al mondo dell’aldilà.

Montegallo condivide, perciò, la marginalità economica e sociale di larga parte della montagna italiana.

Abstract:
The proximal femur is a high-diversity region of the human skeleton, especially at the anterior junction between head and neck, where various bony morphologies have been recognized since mid nineteenth century. Classical literature on this topic is chaotic and contradictory, making almost impossible the comparison of data from different researches. Starting from an extensive bibliographic review, the first standardized method to score these traits has been created. This method allows representing both the anatomical diversity of the region already described in literature and a part of variabil

Full text
Abstract:
This work is about the role that environment plays in the production of evolutionary significant variations. It starts with an historical introduction about the concept of variation and the role of environment in its production. Then, I show how a lack of attention to these topics may lead to serious mistakes in data interpretation. A statistical re-analysis of published data on the effects of malnutrition on dental eruption, shows that what has been interpreted as an increase in the mean value, is actually linked to increase of variability. In Chapter 3 I present the topic of development as a

Full text
Abstract:
Genetic differences among human groups can be ascribed both to the broad-scale extents of pre-historical and historical migrations and to the fine-scale impacts of socio-cultural and geographic heterogeneity. In this thesis, the genetic information provided by uniparental markers were exploited to address different aspects of the Italian population history, by combining macro- and micro-geographic investigations at different spatial and temporal scales. To firstly assess the overall Italian variability, Y-chromosome and mtDNA markers were deeply typed in ~900 individuals from continental Ital

Abstract:
Although ability to digest lactose generally declines after weaning in all mammals, in some human populations it persists also in adult individuals, a condition named lactase persistence (LP). Studies on the prevalence of the LP phenotype in worldwide human populations have shown that the frequency of this trait is highly variable in different ethnic groups, appearing to be positively correlated with the importance of milk in the diet. In particular, several single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the proximity of the LCT gene have been proved to be associated with LP. Nevertheless, few stud
