In a world where the teaching of Classical Latin itself is increasingly at risk, introducing Vulgar Latin at secondary school level could be an opportunity to revive pupils’ interest in studying this language and increase awareness of their linguistic heritage. The ideal way to stimulate this effect is through classwork on epigraphic documents, which undoubtedly provide students with a unique opportunity to get to know the Latin-speaking civilisation from within. In recent years, this teaching strategy has gained international attention, stimulated by the need to renew Latin teaching methods to make them more effective and meaningful for both teachers and students. In this contribution, I will offer a review of a personal experience including the reusable sample of a Vulgar Latin workshop for high school students, and I will reflect on the role schools and universities should play in specifically promoting the teaching of Latin through epigraphy.

Inspired by Bhatt–Scholze [BS22], in this article, we introduce prismatic cohomology for rigid analytic spaces with l.c.i. singularities, with coefficients over Fontaine’s de Rham period ring ${\mathrm {B_{dR}^+}}$.

This note argues that imitation of Ausonius’ Cento nuptialis in the Peruigilium Veneris establishes 374 c.e. as the terminus post quem for the Peruigilium Veneris. The note enlarges on the argument of Danuta Shanzer, who identified debts to Ausonius in the Peruigilium Veneris and dated the latter poem accordingly: the approach is to locate evidence for Ausonian imitation that Shanzer missed, and thus to reinforce and confirm her position. While the note does not propose a poet for the Peruigilium Veneris, it shows that certain figures to whom the work is commonly attributed, notably Florus and Tiberianus, cannot be its author.

Let X be an uncountable Polish space and let $\mathcal {I}$ be an ideal on $\omega $. A point $\eta \in X$ is an $\mathcal {I}$-limit point of a sequence $(x_n)$ taking values in X if there exists a subsequence $(x_{k_n})$ convergent to $\eta $ such that the set of indexes $\{k_n: n \in \omega \}\notin \mathcal {I}$. Denote by $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})$ the family of subsets $S\subseteq X$ such that S is the set of $\mathcal {I}$-limit points of some sequence taking values in X or S is empty. In this article, we study the relationships between the topological complexity of ideals $\mathcal {I}$, their combinatorial properties, and the families of sets $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})$ which can be attained. On the positive side, we provide several purely combinatorial (not depending on the space X) characterizations of ideals $\mathcal {I}$ for the inclusions and the equalities between $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})$ and the Borel classes $\Pi ^0_1$, $\Sigma ^0_2$, and $\Pi ^0_3$. As a consequence, we prove that if $\mathcal {I}$ is a $\Pi ^0_4$ ideal then exactly one of the following cases holds: $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Pi ^0_1$ or $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^0_2$ or $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^1_1$ (however we do not have an example of a $\Pi ^0_4$ ideal with $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^1_1$). In addition, we provide an explicit example of a coanalytic ideal $\mathcal {I}$ for which $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^1_1$. On the negative side, since $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})$ contains all singletons, it is immediate that there are no ideals $\mathcal {I}$ such that $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^0_1$. On the same direction, we show that there are no ideals $\mathcal {I}$ such that $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Pi ^0_2$ or $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})=\Sigma ^0_3$. In fact, for instance, if $\mathcal {I}$ is a Borel ideal and $\mathscr {L}(\mathcal {I})$ contains a non $\Sigma ^0_2$ set, then it contains all $\Pi ^0_3$ sets. We conclude with several open questions.

The emerging evidence for cannabis in the management of tics in Tourette syndrome has come almost exclusively from studies in adult patients. We now have two published feasibility studies of cannabis for adolescents with Tourette syndrome. Although both readily recruited adolescent participants, there was no explicit requirement for prior trials with standard evidence-based treatments. This is of concern given the known harms of regular cannabis use in adolescents, especially the association with psychosis. Investigating cannabis as an option for tics in adolescents with Tourette syndrome is worthwhile, but a high degree of caution is warranted.

Intergenerational programs can support social connectedness, and an important element is engaging in activities together, known as ‘co-occupation’. To address gaps in the literature, we explored how older adults and university students living together in a retirement home enacted co-occupations, the factors that shaped the co-occupations, and how the co-occupations affected intergenerational relationship-building and connections. We conducted a focused ethnography using a constructivist-interpretivist paradigm, interviews with university students and older adults, and on-site observations. We analysed data using reflexive thematic analysis. Co-occupations were critical in creating connections and mutually beneficial intergenerational relationships. Participants often transformed co-occupations to promote interactions. Important features of intergenerational housing appear to be access to co-occupations that are structured and unstructured, flexibility to modify co-occupations, and physical spaces that promote co-occupation. This research illustrates how co-occupation within intergenerational housing programs can support connection and relationship-building. Findings can be applied within intergenerational housing and other intergenerational programs.

In the decades since Nolen-Hoeksema’s (1991) original work on response styles, research on rumination has flourished within psychological science. This literature often emphasizes the association of impaired problem-solving with rumination. Spikes in the prevalence of rumination coincide with the entry into adolescence, as youth become increasingly sensitive to social feedback and interpersonal relationships. This article introduces the idea that rumination represents a socially reinforced process in adolescent girls, who are particularly likely to engage in rumination and to find interpersonal stress aversive. In the event that relationships evoke distress, girls may be able to generate solutions through ruminative coping; however, they are unwilling to accept and enact these solutions when these solutions have the potential to be further socially disruptive. Although ruminative inaction may have grave consequences for the moods of youth, it maintains an interpersonal harmony that some youth may prioritize and, in the process, avoids changing a social milieu, angering or displeasing others, or generating unwanted social controversy or conflict. This serves as reinforcement for ruminative coping, creating the risk that rumination will become an entrenched habit with the potential to further erode mood over time.

This paper explores and criticizes Lucien Goldmann’s Marxist reading of Kant.

This article confronts the idea—especially widespread in the field of political philosophy, amongst Italian philosophers associated with feminism of difference, and in general narratives of 1970s Italian feminism—that Carla Lonzi was an anticipator of the Italian thought of sexual difference. Contra seminal texts like Non credere di avere dei diritti (1987) and scholars affiliated with the Libreria delle Donne di Milano and the Diotima philosophical collective, I illustrate how Lonzi was extraneous to the theoretical foundations and practices of “femminismo della differenza.” Notions of the symbolic mother, practices of disparity and ‘entrustment’, concerns with bringing into existence a female symbolic order—which would ground the development of the thought of sexual difference—were either absent in Lonzi’s writings or contested by her. While Lonzi’s work has increasingly been used to advance essentialist, gender-critical arguments by philosophers close to feminism of difference (for whom her work seemingly provides support against the very existence of non-binary, queer, and trans lives), I show how her approach to sexual difference departed significantly from such interpretations and can rather be more convincingly understood through Simone de Beauvoir.

Under current Dutch regulations, accurate assessment of the amount of P secreted in milk is essential, as it determines manure P output. The two main aims were: 1) to predict P content in bovine milk using a broad range of predictor variables, and 2) to obtain predicted milk P contents representative of the Dutch dairy cow population. A secondary objective was to evaluate seasonal variation in milk P content. Weekly bulk milk samples (week 14 in 2017 up until week 13 in 2018) were collected from 14 dairy plants located across the Netherlands and pooled per week as representative samples of Dutch bovine milk. Milk samples were analysed for macronutrients and mineral contents. The mean P content of milk was 101.2 mg/100 g, and significant seasonal variation was observed, with the highest values found during winter and the lowest during summer. The contents of fat, protein, casein, Ca, Mg and Mn in milk were found to be highly correlated with the milk P content. The preferred multiple regression equation to predict the milk P content (mg/100 g) included the predictor variables milk fat (g/100 g), Ca (mg/100 g) and K (mg/100 g), viz. milk P content = – 58.6 (±14.09) + 0.28 (±0.104) × Ca + 11.46 (±2.559) × fat + 0.48 (±0.094) × K, and explained 80% of the variation (R2adj) in milk P content. The contribution of milk K content to explain variation in milk P content cannot be physiologically explained.

This note addresses a grammatical objection, first raised by Torstrik, to the transmitted text of Aristotle’s De anima 3.7, namely that the text contains at 431a4–7 a μέν without a corresponding δέ (or another adversative particle). Rejecting Corcilius’s suggestion that this is a μέν solitarium, the note shows that modest repunctuation reveals a responding δέ and makes better sense of this part of the text.

The aim of this article is threefold. First, it develops the premises on which the Special Issue “A Union of Crises: In Search of Constitutional Resilience” is based: that the omnipresence of diverse crises has become an inescapable reality for the EU, and that the low likelihood of Treaty change requires a reorientation in legal literature towards a more systematic exploration and conceptualisation of EU crisis law that transcends the hitherto focus on single-crisis measures. Second, the paper attempts to lay the groundwork for such a reorientation by offering a meta-view of what EU crisis law entails by outlining the constitutional contours of EU crisis law. It argues that the concept of EU crisis law is a combination of constitutional, international, hybrid, exceptional and legislative models of crisis accommodation, and demonstrates how these have interacted in the responses to past and present crises. Finally, the paper demonstrates how the remaining papers that form part of this Special Issue advance a meta-narrative of EU crisis and begin to provide answers to some of the most pressing issues that this nascent discipline is to address.

While ‘hard-right’ has gained traction in scholarship and newsrooms, its conceptual vagueness and practical effects have remained underexamined. Drawing on Framing Theory and Agenda-Setting Theory, this article offers the first systematic, crosspublication study of how seven leading English-language outlets – The Guardian, the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), Politico, The New Statesman, The Economist, Reuters, and The Financial Times – employed the term between 2022 and 2025. A qualitative content analysis of 140 articles demonstrates that ‘hard-right’ functions as an umbrella label that conflates distinct far-right currents, while framing devices selectively highlight certain traits and agenda-setting practices that elevate the term’s prominence in headlines and summaries. Although outlets vary in their use of contextual qualifiers, all exhibit comparable patterns of misclassification, label inflation, and strategic ambiguity. It can be argued that the strategic use of vague terminology can soften the far-right’s image and bolster their electoral appeal. The findings demonstrate the urgency of adopting established political science typologies and clearer editorial guidelines to safeguard analytical precision and democratic accountability in media coverage.

Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) is a condition characterised by an avoidance or restriction of food intake that has a detrimental impact on physical health, psychosocial functioning or both. ARFID has now been classified in ICD-11, alongside DSM-5; however, challenges remain for healthcare professionals in recognising ARFID in young people and identifying best practice for managing their care. This educational article aims to provide an update on the epidemiology and clinical presentation of ARFID in children and young people, with a particular focus on co-occurring neurodevelopmental conditions and psychiatric disorders. A multidisciplinary approach to assessment and management is key, working closely with the young person and the system around them. Physical and psychosocial risk assessment has been aided by the publication of the medical emergencies in eating disorders (MEED) guidelines. Crucially, there is a need for further research into ARFID in order to develop evidence-based standardised guidelines for assessment, management and transition to adult services if required.

Exploiting intergenerationally linked data from the Survey of Health, Ageing, and Retirement in Europe, we examine the association between the home-leaving ages of parents and those of their daughters and sons. We propose a framework in which intergenerational associations between nest-leaving patterns of successive generations might stem from three channels of transmission, and we rely on detailed information on three generations of individuals to establish the strength of each channel. We find that a 1-year increase in the age at which a parent left home is associated with children leaving the nest approximately 1 month later. We provide evidence supporting our claim that the bulk of this association is due to direct cultural transmission of home-leaving ages stemming from the inheritance of preferences on the optimal timing of life-course events, such as cohabitation, marriage, and parenthood.

We are in a metacrisis caused by exponential growth, extraction and entitlement. When we strive to abolish the abundant absurdities of the current system (i.e., modernity) with rehabilitative or reformist responses, we risk reproducing, even reinforcing, the very dynamics we seek to transform. The sensing seed is a visual heuristic and practice of resonant embodied ethics to aid in unravelling the machinations of modernity. The seed identifies three polarities that reflect salient patterns of modernity: separateness, linearity and abstraction. The sensing seed is designed to surface the many materialisations of modernity while elucidating ethical entrées that are decolonially discordant with dominant dispositions by enabling reflexive, visceral and committed praxes of the many adjacent alternatives available, but largely imperceptible, even unimaginable, to modern humans. Through radical acceptance, attention to aesthesis and action, we can show up, cultivate connexion, kindle kin, grow groundward, tarry with trouble, abide in aporias and wallow in wiser lifeways akin to those of our pre-modern (i.e., primal) ancestors.
