Published: July 2021

The concept of sustainable development has begun to be developed, namely in line with current needs and without endangering future generations. In addition to focusing on environmental issues, this concept covers economic development, environmental protection and social development. However, this concept still tends to focus on short- term economic development. With the limitation of the State Revenue and Expenditure Budget (APBN) and the resources we have, it is not surprising that policymakers prefer shortcuts. As a result, the quality of economic growth has deteriorated. One of the efforts to harmonize the needs of economic growth and conservation of natural resources is the concept of a Green Economy. This article discusses how to calculate economic development as seen from the amount of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) from a Green Economy perspective. Batu City, as a tourism city that relies on natural conditions and its environment, needs to analyze its economic development from a Green Economy perspective in order to be sustainable. This article aimed to analyze the depletion of natural resources of the sub-sector “Provision of Accommodation and Food – Beverage” which supports tourism in Batu City. The results showed that in 2015-2019, natural resource depletion increased every year.

Published: July 2021

Learning in the education era 4.0 requires strengthening skills in reaching the golden generation of 2045. According to the STEM Team (2019), there are three core skills of the 21st century, which is the era of education 4.0. These are: 1) character quality consisting of religiosity, nationalism, independence, mutual cooperation and integrity; 2) basic literacy consisting of language, numeracy, scientific, digital, financial and cultural literacy and citizenship; and 3) competencies consisting of critical thinking, creativity, communication and collaboration. To achieve these skills, an appropriate evaluation tool is needed which is tailored to these characteristics. One evaluation model that can be developed is STEM-based evaluation. Rahmatina (2020) states that STEM is learning that integrates science, technology, engineering and mathematics. This study aimed to develop a STEM-based evaluation tool that fits the characteristics of the education era 4.0. Development research methods were used. Borg & Gall (1983: 775) described the stages carried out, namely research and information collecting, planning, developing preliminary forms of the product, preliminary field testing, main product revision, main field testing, operational product revision, and dissemination and implementation.

Published: July 2021

Learning through interactive media gives additional value to the educational world because it enables learners to represent themselves. Game-based learning promotes learners’ creativity, critical thinking and cognitive skills related to technology use. Previous research discovered that game-based learning has a positive effect on learners. Therefore, in this research, an applied study was conducted on the use of the E-CrowdWar educational game with high school students. The purpose of this study was to determine the effectiveness of using games in learning to improve student learning outcomes. The study was conducted with 100 high school students in Blitar and 100 in Kediri. E-CrowdWar was used during the classroom activities along with in-class learning. An independent sample t-test was used to measure the effectiveness of game-based learning. The integration of games into online learning had a significantly positive effect on student learning outcomes. The pre-test results showed that the average student learning outcome score in both cities was the same, namely 65 points. After implementing game-based learning, student learning outcomes in Kediri increased to 90.74 points and in Blitar to 86.95 points. The study discovered that game-based learning through E-CrowdWar was effective in promoting the students’ academic outcomes, although there were differences in the mean score. Based on the results, game-based learning provides tremendous improvements in learning outcomes and so should be applied, especially in the economic field.

The effectiveness of the robotic game kit on anxiety among hospitalized preschool children: A non-randomized controlled trial
Authors: Pourteimour Sima , Kazemi Sahar
Published: July 2021

Background & Aim: Hospitalization is a challenging experience all children go through in their lives, leading to their utmost anxiety. In this sense, interactive games and activities can help ease this psychological burden. Therefore, we endeavored to determine the effectiveness of a robotic game kit (RGK) on the anxiety of hospitalized preschoolers.
Methods & Materials: This non-randomized controlled clinical trial was conducted in a pediatric hospital, Iran, between March and July 2019. 59 participants were assigned to intervention (n=30) or control (n=29) groups through available sampling. Inclusion criteria were Iranian native children aged 3-7 years with communication ability. The RGK was applied in eight sessions at least seven consecutive days of hospitalization. The collected data by using the demographic information form and the preschool anxiety scale (PAS) were analyzed in descriptive, chi-square, t-test, the one-way ANCOVA (analysis of covariance), and multivariate analysis of covariance (MANCOVA).
Results: Two groups were homogenous in terms of demographic variables (p>0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the mean score of PAS before the intervention in the intervention 46.33±15.81 and control groups 37.24±19.65 (p=0.055). However, the mean score of PAS in the intervention group was significantly lower than the control group (P=0.030). Also, using the RGK was effective in two subscales related to separation anxiety and physical injury fears (P=0.034).
Conclusion: The modern RGKs could have a significant place in pediatric health care in hospitals. It is thus an undeniable fact that high-quality, comprehensive care can be boosted through RGK based interventions for children encountering stressful situations.

Published: July 2021

Background & Aim: Chronic low back pain is a common disease among nurses. According to the literature, complementary medicine can reduce low back pain, one of which is craniosacral therapy. This study was designed to investigate the effect of craniosacral therapy on the intensity of chronic back pain of nurses.
Methods & Materials: This randomized clinical trial study was conducted on 60 nurses with chronic back pain. The participants were randomly assigned into intervention and control groups. The intervention group’s participants received eight individual sessions of craniosacral therapy. In the control group, a light-touch in the lumbar region was performed as a placebo. The therapist met each participant separately in a private room of the hospital. The two groups completed the McGill Pain Questionnaire at the baseline, immediately after the intervention, and one month after the intervention.  The collected data was analyzed in SPSS (v.16) using descriptive and analytical tests such as t-test, Chi-Square, ANCOVA, and repeated measures ANOVA.
Results: The ANCOVA test results showed a significant difference between the two groups’ mean scores of pain intensity and its subscales (P<0.05). The results of repeated measures ANOVA showed that the mean scores of pain intensity and its subscales (sensory, affective, pain evaluation, and miscellaneous) decreased over the three time points in the intervention group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The ﬁndings aﬃrmed the positive eﬀects of the craniosacral therapy on the intensity of pain in nurses with chronic back pain. Therefore, it is recommended that this approach be performed as a complementary, effective, non-invasive intervention to decrease chronic back pain.

Authors: Rajabloo Mohammadreza , Mohammadpour Ali , Sajjadi Moosa
Published: July 2021

Background & Aim: Hypertension is a prevalent and significant health problem; moreover, lack of treatment adherence can cause precarious complications. The present study aims to determine the effect of education based on Leventhal's model on adherence to treatment and control of blood pressure in patients with hypertension.
Methods & Materials: This quasi-experimental study was performed on 59 patients with hypertension in Gonabad in 2020. The participants were selected based on convenience sampling; they were randomly assigned to the intervention and control groups. In addition to the routine treatment for hypertension, the patients in the intervention group received a training program based on Leventhal's model in 45-minute sessions and three times a week. In contrast, the patients in the control group received only the routine treatment for hypertension. A demographic and Hill-Bone Adherence Questionnaires were completed for the participants. Moreover, their blood pressure was recorded using the blood pressure record form. The data were analyzed in SPSS v.22 software, at the significance level of p<0.05.
Results: The two groups were homogeneous in adherence to treatment (P=0.63) before the intervention; yet, there was a substantial difference between the groups once the intervention was implemented (P<0.001). Besides, the average systolic and diastolic blood pressure was not significantly different between the two groups before the intervention. After the intervention, though, the difference was reported significant (p<0.05).
Conclusion: Education based on Leventhal's model caused an improvement in adherence to treatment and reduced blood pressure among patients with hypertension.
The impact of environmental, social and corporate governance responsibility on the cost of short- and long-term debt
Authors: Ratajczak Piotr , Mikołajewicz Grzegorz
Published: July 2021

The aim of the paper is to examine the impact of environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) responsibility on the short- and long-term cost of debt. Linear regression was applied to a unique dataset on CSR and cost of debt for 300 companies recognized in 2017 by Corporate Knights as the most sustainable companies in the world. The question about the link between CSR and cost of debt is important as there is still ongoing debate as to whether business should undertake activities in the field of CSR—managers and other stakeholders are still unsure of the outcomes. The findings show that the involvement in environmental issues decreases the cost of long-term debt whereas the involvement in social issues brings benefits to short- and long-term debt. Surprisingly the greater the involvement in corporate governance, the higher the cost of debt in all time horizons. Managers should expect a lower cost of debt from environmental and social activities mostly in the long run. Corporate governance expenditures may in turn be seen as a waste of company resources, cost of forgone opportunities, or—optionally—as an over-investment. The main novelty is the breakdown of CSR into three dimensions while examining various term structures of corporate debt.

Data management platforms (DMPs) are a widely used means of placing targeted advertising, for example, commercial or political advertisements. However, only a few academic papers shed light on the platforms’ mechanisms. These mechanisms’ opacity makes it hard for consumers to understand what happens with their data, and regulators struggle to implement effective regulations. Hence, we develop a taxonomy to understand and compare different characteristics of DMPs. Following Nickerson’s (2013) method and combining an inductive and deductive approach, eight dimensions emerge that differentiate DMPs. We evaluate the taxonomy’s applicability and test it with a set of nine DMPs, which we select by feasibility, relevance, and popularity. The application shows that the eight dimensions cover the significant features that explain most of the variance in characteristics between DMPs. The evaluation revealed opportunities for further development of the taxonomy
Alternative Data for Credit Risk Management: An Analysis of the Current State of Research
Authors:   University of Goettingen, Faculty of Business and Economics, Goettingen, Germany, Roeder Jan
Published: July 2021

Determining credit risk is important for banks and nonbanks alike. For credit risk management, the heterogeneous data generated today can potentially complement the established data such as balance sheet ratios. It has not yet been clearly shown which alternative data sources, such as social media or satellite data, provide added value and how this value can be extracted effectively. This review provides an overview of the intersection between these areas and develops a research agenda. The analysis of the 29 identified papers shows that the use of financial news is analyzed most frequently. Social media has also been used to some extent. The use of other alternative data sets, such as geospatial data, has been analyzed infrequently. The empirical evidence suggests that alternative data can provide both explanatory and predictive benefits in credit risk management. Convergence in terms of analytical approaches and evaluation offers the potential to advance the field.
How Digital Market Hosts Control Sellers
Authors:   Development Institute, Gurgaon, Haryana India, Danani Shraddha , Gogan Janis L. ,   Bentley University, Waltham Massachusetts, United States of America
Published: July 2021

How do hosts of digital markets exercise control over sellers? Our three-case study, set in India, reveals that seller control portfolios used by large digital market hosts differ from control portfolios in other contexts (reported in prior research). The platform host neither preselects nor hires most sellers; this limits hosts’ control options. The platform supports many shortduration transactions, yet some related processes take place offline – again limiting hosts’ control options. In this context of many-sellers, many-buyers, digital market hosts (similar to other controllers) attempt to balance formal and informal controls. By identifying specific control mechanisms that hosts utilize, our study findings provide a useful foundation to support further research on control challenges in digital markets and other digital platforms.

Digitization of activities in hospitals receives more attention, due to Covid-19 related regulations. The use of ehealth to support patient care is increasing and efficient ways to implement digitization of processes and other technological equipment are needed. We constructed a protocol for implementation and in this study, we evaluate this protocol based on a case to implement a device in the OR. We used various data sources to evaluate this protocol: semi-structured interviews, questionnaires, and project documents. Based on these findings, this protocol, including identified implementation activities and implementation instructions can be used for implementations of other devices. Implementation activities include setting up a project plan, organizational and technological preparation, maintenance, and training. In future research, these activities and instructions need to be evaluated in more complex projects and a flexible tool needs to be developed to select relevant activities and instructions for implementations of information systems or devices.
Make Us Smile! AI and the Violation of Human Intentions
Authors:   Know-Center GmbH, Graz, Austria, Wolf-Brenner Christof
Published: July 2021

In his book Superintelligence, Nick Bostrom points to several ways the development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) might fail, turn out to be malignant or even induce an existential catastrophe. He describes ‘Perverse Instantiations’ (PI) as cases, in which AI figures out how to satisfy some goal through unintended ways. For instance, AI could attempt to paralyze human facial muscles into constant smiles to achieve the goal of making humans smile. According to Bostrom, cases like this ought to be avoided since they include a violation of human designer’s intentions. However, AI finding solutions that its designers have not yet thought of and therefore could also not have intended is arguably one of the main reasons why we are so eager to use it on a variety of problems. In this paper, I aim to show that the concept of PI is quite vague, mostly due to ambiguities surrounding the term ‘intention’. Ultimately, this text aims to serve as a starting point for a further discussion of the research topic, the development of a research agenda and future improvement of the terminology.

This paper connects research from business model innovation and information systems by exploring critical IT capabilities for servitized business models. The adoption of servitized business models is a major business model innovation strategy. At the same time, digitalization drives the evolution of IT capabilities at these business models. Scholars argue that it remains unclear how IT capabilities enable servitized business models to build a competitive advantage by achieving cost advantages or differentiation. This paper explores IT capabilities that enable building a competitive advantage for servitized business models based on a qualitative analysis of multiple published case studies. The authors identify configurations of IT capabilities among servitized business models. The findings contribute to servitization research by exploring IT capabilities and how they are combined among servitized business models. The insights help practitioners deploy digital technologies and IT assets effectively as building blocks of IT capabilities to advance their servitized business model.
Collective Rights of Persons Engaged in Gainful Employment Outside the Employment Relationship – en Outline of the Issue
Authors: Duraj Tomasz
Published: July 2021

The main objective of the following study is to introduce readers to the issue of the 2nd National Scientific Conference in the series “Atypical Employment Relations” organized on 3 October 2019 by the Centre for Atypical Employment Relations of the University of Lodz.
The consequence of extending the right of coalition to persons performing paid work outside the employment relationship was that they were guaranteed important collective rights, which until 1 January 2019 were reserved primarily for employees. The rights which Polish legislator ensured to non-employees include the right to equal treatment in employment due to membership in a trade union or performing trade union functions; the right to bargain with a view to the conclusion of collective agreement and other collective agreements; the right to bargain to resolve collective disputes and the right to organize strikes and other forms of protest, as well as the right to protect union activists. The author positively assesses the extension of collective rights to people engaged in gainful employment outside the employment relationship, noting a number of flaws and shortcomings of the analyzed norms. The manner of regulating this matter, through the mechanism of referring to the relevant provisions regulating the situation of employees, the statutory equalization of the scope of collective rights of non-employees with the situation of employees, the lack of criteria differentiating these rights, as well as the adopted model of trade union representation based on company trade unions, not taking into account the specific situation of people working for profit outside the employment relationship, are the reasons why the amendment to the trade union law is seen critically and requires further changes.

Nowadays it has to be considered how to use technologies and data collected by platform companies to the benefit of workers.
Poesia della “distruzione compiuta” milo De Angelis e la sua radice dell’italianita
Authors: Polanowska Patrycja
Published: July 2021

Questo articolo traccia degli aspetti dell’italianitŕ nell’opera di Milo De Angelis, che esordisce nel 1976 con Somiglianze. La sua poesia, opponendosi alla crisi poetica del secondo Novecento, cerca di rifondare lo statuto del discorso lirico, restando pur sempre profondamente radicata nella corporalitŕ delle cose. Le seguenti analisi vengono focalizzate su due punti principali, esaminati tramite i riferimenti alla letteratura italiana. Il primo di essi č quello della rappresentazione di Milano, in cui vengono scoperti degli influssi della poetica di Charles Baudelaire che permettono a De Angelis di abbandonare l’orizzonte usuale della sua cittŕ. La peculiaritŕ rilevata nella seconda parte del saggio č il carattere della parola poetica in sé, determinata da un contrasto interno tra l’elemento dionisiaco ed apollineo.

L’obiettivo che si pone l’articolo č quello di esaminare le diverse prospettive in cui fu percepita la battaglia di Montaperti, combattuta nel 1260 tra guelfi fiorentini e ghibellini senesi, sostenuti a loro volta dagli esuli ghibellini di Firenze. Questo scontro s’impresse durevolmente nella memoria dei membri di ambedue i partiti rivelando quanta importanza avesse per gli italiani dell’epoca l’appartenenza a un raggruppamento politico determinato. In una tale ottica, l’adesione a una data fazione va ritenuta un tratto italiano per antonomasia che, seppure in una forma rudimentale, č sopravvissuta per secoli. Basti pensare al Palio di Siena, che puň esser visto come un prolungamento della rivalitŕ tra guelfi e ghibellini. Ai fini della ricerca sono stati analizzati: il sonetto ***[A voi che ve ne andaste per paura] di Rustico Filippi (di Filippo) – ghibellino fiorentino che deride lo sbaraglio dei guelfi, il Canto X dell’Inferno, in cui Dante parla con il capo degli esuli ghibellini fiorentini, Farinata degli Uberti, e la canzone ***[Ahi lasso! or e stagion de doler tanto] di Guittone d’Arezzo che constata con amarezza che Firenze č ormai soltanto un simulacro dell’antica grandezza. Viene inoltre segnalato che tra le righe dei componimenti traspare un’altra caratteristica tipicamente italiana, quella di una specie di campanilismo, ovverossia di patriottismo locale.
Złodzieje rowerów na trasie W-Z uwagi o recepcji dzieła De Siki w polskim piśmiennictwie filmowym do 1956 roku

Po zakończeniu II wojny światowej kultura filmowa w Polsce Ludowej uległa istotnej transformacji. Jednym z jej aspektów był nowy model importu filmów: większość międzynarodowych źródeł została zastąpiona filmami z komunistycznego bloku, głównie z ZSRR. Filmy włoskie stanowiły w tych realiach istotny wyjątek: publiczność polska była zaznajomiona nie tylko z filmami, ale także – dzięki przekładom publikowanym w prasie branżowej – z teoretycznymi tezami nurtu C. Zavattiniego i U. Barbaro (ten ostatni w latach 1948–1949 wykładał nawet w łódzkiej Szkole Filmowej). Niektóre filmy uznawane za neorealistyczne nie zostały jednak dopuszczone na polskie ekrany przez cenzurę (zakazano m.in. wyświetlania kilku filmów Rosselliniego), lub pojawiły się w kinach ze znaczącym opóźnieniem (los taki spotkał m.in. film Umberto D.). W artykule koncentruję się na zbadaniu recepcji filmu Złodzieje rowerów (Ladri di biciclette, reż. V. De Sica, 1948) w polskim czasopiśmiennictwie filmowym lat 1946–1956. Analiza wykazała, że o ile w latach 1946–1949 przeważają raczej pozytywne głosy, o tyle od początku lat 50., w okresie stalinizacji, dominują głosy krytyczne; odkąd ideałem stało się kino radzieckie i poetyka socrealizmu, włoski neorealizm (i film De Siki) oskarżany był o pesymizm oraz gubienie „wielkich perspektyw rewolucyjnych”. To podejście uległo zmianie w czasie odwilży, kiedy neorealizm stał się swoistym wzorem do naśladowania – przykładem nowatorskiej estetyki filmowej.
Teatr Ludowy PRL jako przedmiot badań komparatystycznych zarys problematyki
Authors: Woźniak Katarzyna
Published: July 2021

La definizione del “teatro popolare” rappresenta una sfida per gli studi comparati italo‑polacchi di teatro. Infatti, analizzando la situazione istituzionale del teatro polacco e quello italiano degli anni Sessanta e Settanta, la prima sfida è quella di tradurre il termine “ludowy” in italiano: si tratta di un teatro “per il popolo” nello stesso significato del “popolo” che ne dava la Repubblica Popolare Polacca? In altre parole, cercando la risposta a questa domanda, dobbiamo chiederci, come “sperimentavano” la popolarità / “ludowość” gli ambienti teatrali e istituzionali italiani e polacchi del secondo dopoguerra.
Un tedesco a Roma – Uwe Timm alla ricerca dell’italianità
Authors: Tomasi-Kapral Elżbieta
Published: July 2021

Przedmiotem rozważań podjętych w niniejszym artykule jest utwór pt. Römische Aufzeichnungen autorstwa Uwe Timma – jednego z czołowych twórców współczesnej literatury niemieckiej. Utwór, mający charakter pozornie przypadkowo zestawionych i luźno powiązanych ze sobą szkiców, powstał na początku lat 80. XX-go wieku, podczas trzyletniego pobytu pisarza w Rzymie. Jest on świadectwem intensywnego zainteresowania autora Włochami – historią, sztuką, polityką, ale również (a może przede wszystkim) włoskim stylem życia i mentalnością Włochów. Autorka proponuje więc analizę tego tekstu pod kątem zawartych w nim wieloaspektowych refleksji Timma nad specyfiką kultury włoskiej, która w utworze zostaje skonfrontowana z o wiele bliższą autorowi kulturą niemiecką. Starając się zrozumieć, na czym polega fenomen zwany ‘włoskością’, Timm odkrywa paradoksalnie klucz do zrozumienia tych aspektów kultury niemieckiej, które od lat wywołują w nim sprzeciw. Konfrontacja z włoską kulturą, w której wiodącą rolę odgrywają zmysły, stwarza autorowi jednocześnie możliwość krytycznego spojrzenia na swoje dotychczasowe życie, przyzwyczajenia i często nieracjonalne zachowania, u podłoża których znajdują się, jak się okazuje, przeżycia z dzieciństwa.
Włoskie pasaże w Bibliotece Kórnickiej
Authors: Małecka Monika
Published: July 2021

Właściciele dóbr kórnickich, Działyńscy i Zamoyscy, jako zagorzali polscy patrioci założyli w XIX wieku wspaniałą kolekcję biblioteczną i muzealną, koncentrując się na zbiorach polskich. Do tego należałoby dołożyć angielski anturaż przebudowanego zamku i ogrodu, w których były one eksponowane oraz szczyptę francuskiego stylu bycia w związku z ich częstymi pobytami wśród paryskiej Polonii. Włoskie klimaty były, ogólnie rzecz biorąc, dalekie od tego, na czy m skupiano uwagę w Kórniku. W zbiorach odnajdujemy jednak kilka świadectw tego, iż kultura włoska była uniwersalna i atrakcyjna bez względu na epokę i zainteresowania. Były to przejścia między kulturą włoską, zbudowaną na kulturze łacińskiej, a kulturą europejską, a więc i polską. Zrodziły się w wyniku podążania za trendami, nabywania włoskich przedmiotów i podróżowania na Półwysep Apeniński. W artykule przytoczonych zostanie kilka przykładów na poparcie tezy. Najwcześniejszy motyw włoski dostrzeżemy w XVIIII wieku, kiedy właścicielką Kórnika była Teofila Szołdrska-Potulicka z Działyńskich. Miała ona najprawdopodobniej włoski ogród, który istniał do połowy XIX wieku. Z całą pewnością nie możemy jednak tego stwierdzić, ponieważ źródła sugerują również założenie francuskie. Pozostałe pasaże związane są z XIX wiekiem. W salonach rozbrzmiewała muzyka włoskich kompozytorów oper. Na półkach bibliotecznych pojawiły się liczne stare druki i rękopisy włoskich autorów i wydawców, napisane w języku włoskim. Podróże do Włoch nie były ani częste, ani entuzjastyczne. Głównie stwarzały okazję do politycznej aktywności i spotkań z papieżem, a tylko przy okazji były turystyczną atrakcją. Jan Działyński prowadził na Półwyspie Apenińskim archeologiczne wykopaliska i nabywał przedmioty sztuki starożytnej. Włochy poznajemy oczami rodzin z Kórnika dzięki listom, książkom, kartom pocztowym, obrazom, przedmiotom.
Reportaż „Z kraju, który tańczy” – „Terremoto” Jarosława Mikołajewskiego
Authors: Najgeburska Karolina
Published: July 2021

Niniejszy artykuł podejmuje refleksję nad obrazem Italii i jej mieszkańców, wyłaniającym się z reportażu Terremoto Jarosława Mikołajewskiego poświęconego, jak sugeruje tytuł, trzęsieniom ziemi, które w latach 2016–2017 nawiedziły środkowe Włochy. Mikołajewski, w formie reportażu literackiego, nie tylko podejmuje próbę opisania krajobrazu po przejściu kataklizmu, lecz także, a może przede wszystkim, mierzy się z doświadczeniem, wobec którego język pozostaje bezradny, co znajduje swój wyraz w strukturze i kompozycji tekstu, w składni i rytmie zdań, a także w estetyce milczenia. Celem studium jest zatem zbadanie, o czym opowiada reportaż (a więc jakie aspekty trzęsień ziemi zostały poruszone w tekście, a następnie wykorzystane do otwarcia nowej perspektywy na „włoskość”), jak również w jaki sposób poeta‑reporter buduje swą opowieść, jak stara się wyrazić pustkę i nieobecność oraz jak ukazany został pogrzebany w gruzach świat po katastrofie. Analizie poddano styl narracji oraz poetykę tekstu, w szczególności zaś – elementy poetyki apofatycznej oraz metaforykę. Ponadto artykuł stanowi próbę odpowiedzi na pytanie, jak tragiczne w skutkach trzęsienia ziemi wpływają na życie i mentalność Włochów oraz w jakim stopniu owo doświadczenie może zyskać wymiar szerszy, ogólnoludzki, poprzez odwołanie do fundamentalnych wartości humanitarnych oraz do kultury antycznej, którą uznać można za fundament zjawiska „włoskości”.
