Sommario/riassunto

The publication contains a collection of literary sketches on love by the Serbian Slavist Dejan Ajdačić, a theoretician and literary critic, folklorist and ethnolinguist, researcher in contrastive Slavic culture, translator and editor, who combines the knowledge of three Slavic cultural traditions: southern, eastern and western. In the texts included here, the author presents interpretations of works that originated during the Renaissance, Romanticism, realism, surrealism – up to the latest output of Croatian, Serbian, Bulgarian, Czech, Polish, Ukrainian and Russian literatures."One very important and valuable aspect of the book is its alethic dimension, reminding the postmodern reader, living in times long past the era of great narratives, of a cultural reflection on the mystery of erotic  love, in which philosophy and literature, theology and folklore – interpenetrate … Just like love is a mystery in itself, so the forms of its literary imagery are certainly – in this particular case –  an attempt to go through the maze of forms and show what is most important in love. Even if they are not necessarily interested in Slavic literatures, the Polish readers will undoubtedly enjoy this collection as a research project offering some captivating anthropological, comparative and philological perspectives."From the introduction by dr hab. Bogdan Trocha professor of the University of Zielona Góra

Sommario/riassunto

Although digenetic trematodes have been largely neglected, they constitute a major group of helminths that parasitize human and animals causing significant morbidity and mortality. This is of special importance today, since the geographical limits and the populations at



risk, traditionally limited to developing or low-income countries, are currently expanding and changing in relation to factors such as growing international markets, improved transportation systems, and demographic changes. This has led to a growing international interest in trematode infections, although factors such as the difficulties entailed in the diagnosis, the complexity of human and agricultural practices, the lack of assessments of economic costs, or the limited number of effective drugs are preventing the development of control measures of these diseases in humans and livestock. In-depth studies are needed to clarify the current epidemiology of these helminth infections and to identify new and specific targets for both effective diagnosis and treatments. The main goal of the third edition of this book is to present the major trematodes and their corresponding diseases in the framework of modern parasitology, considering matters such as the application of novel techniques and analysis of data in the context of host-parasite interactions and also with the resident microbiota, showing the application of modern techniques and concepts to the studies on digenetic trematodes. This is an ideal book for parasitologists, microbiologists, zoologists, immunologists, public health professionals, clinicians and graduate and post-graduate students. .
