The victim was Pier Paolo Pasolini, a one-time schoolteacher, who went on to become one of Italy’s most important public intellectuals. Pasolini was many things to many people—poet, translator, staunch advocate for his native Friulian dialect, semiotic theorist, journalist, social critic, political activist, novelist, and, ultimately, a filmmaker. Pasolini’s corpse had been badly mutilated and was hardly recognizable. His skull had been crushed with a wooden plank and, according to the coroner’s report, he had been kicked repeatedly in the scrotum with such vehemence that his groin area was black and grotesquely distended. Pasolini’s attackers then drove over his body multiple times with his own Alpha Romeo GT. A seventeen-year-old hustler and convicted felon named Giuseppe Pelosi (nicknamed “Pino la Rana,” or “Joey the Frog”) was charged with the murder and initially confessed to the crime. Pelosi served nine years. He was released from prison in 1984, but he retracted his confession in 2005, claiming that he did not kill Pasolini, but had taken the fall because certain men with Sicilian accents had threatened to hurt his family. From the outset of the investigation, police reports indicated that Pelosi’s story—that Pasolini had picked him up for sex at the Stazione Termini and that their transaction had turned vi-","PeriodicalId":39571,"journal":{"name":"ARION-A JOURNAL OF HUMANITIES AND THE CLASSICS","volume":"21 1","pages":"111"},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2014-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82112298","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Why was Rembrandt, the ninth of ten children, the only one to be enrolled in Latin school? Around age fifteen, why was he then pulled out to apprentice as a painter with Jacob Isaacz van Swanenburg? Why was Swanenburg, whom we would call a second-rate artist, chosen as a teacher? How did Rembrandt, the son of a miller, cross paths with Constantijn Huygens, one of the most erudite people in the Netherlands and a secretary to Stadholder, prince of Orange? How did Rembrandt, a newcomer to Amsterdam and only in his mid-twenties, become one of the most famous and sought-after artists almost overnight? And why did he then have to declare bankruptcy in 1656, dying in near poverty, abandoned by most of his students and prior collectors? Most of these questions have been dealt with by puzzled art historians in one way or another. Each of their hypotheses often contradicts the other—and in some cases, Rembrandt’s history is constructed solely from guesses. The actual evidence of his biography is largely based on two sources, the first of which is a 350-word account by Jan Jansz from 1641, part of his Leiden city guidebook.1 Even this contemporary description of Rembrandt’s career is full of generalities and subjective interpretations. The other famous source of facts about Rembrandt is the exhaustive bankruptcy list of his possessions, which, though it tells us a lot of details about Rembrandt’s private life, is full of gaps when it comes to explaining his work. Titles of Rembrandt paintings were attributed posthumously, with paintings often being revisited on numerous occasions with diametrically opposing theories and subject attributions.

They comprise mainly explanations of the contact between antibodies and antigens and clarifications of the fact that organisms are able to produce a huge variety of specific antibodies. This paper focuses on the term “template,” which geneticists adopted from immunology. The term “template” went through an appreciable semantic change, which came between the 1930s and the 1950s.
