Abstract Due to their prolonged and multicultural nature, councils functioned historically as hubs for the exchange of ideas, discourse, diplomacy and rhetoric, reflecting broader cultural trends. In the Middle Ages, no international forums were comparable to ecumenical councils, where diverse and influential groups from various regions convened to ...

What Does Intarsia Say? Materiality and Spirituality in the Urbino Studiolo☆
Abstract Upon entering the Urbino studiolo of Federico da Montefeltro, the visitor is struck by a material‐charged environment. Surprisingly, only a few scholars have addressed one prominent aspect of the decorative scheme, namely, the feature of intarsia as a medium. Even so, it remains on the sidelines of the discussion.

We determined the trophic associations among fig wasp species associated with Ficus citrifolia by integrating gall morphology, the temporal sequence of wasp colonization, and oviposition behaviour. Dissection of galls produced by four gall‐inducing species at a late developmental phase enabled direct identification of occupants and inference of host ...

The mark of the dispositional: Broad, Ramsey and Wittgenstein
Abstract This paper reconstructs a trajectory of theoretical influence on the concept of disposition among C.D. Broad, F.P. Ramsey and L. Wittgenstein. The central thesis is that the form of dispositionalism Wittgenstein criticizes in his post‐Tractarian philosophy—particularly in relation to belief, meaning and understanding—corresponds closely to the

New Insights Into Lakota Syntax: The Encoding of Arguments and the Number of Verbal Affixes
ABSTRACT This paper examines the morphosyntax of transitive constructions in Lakota, with particular emphasis being placed on the encoding of arguments. The analysis of argument marking through verbal affixes in Lakota transitive constructions raises two main questions: the existence or non‐existence of the zero marker for the third person singular and

Evaluation of Some Parameterization Models for Photon Cross Sections in Quantitative Dual‐Energy CT
ABSTRACT Using multienergy CT with energy‐dispersive detectors and dual‐energy CT (DECT), traditional CT images can be combined to extract material parameters such as electron density (ρ e ) and effective atomic number (Z eff ). This study evaluates parameterizations for deriving ρ e and Z eff from CT numbers (HU) to generate new CT images.

The making of novel ecosystems: A process‐based framework for measurement, analysis and application
Abstract Ecological novelty is emerging rapidly due to global change drivers such as climate shifts, species introductions, defaunation, and land‐use transformation. These changes challenge how we assess, understand and manage ecosystems in the Anthropocene.

Yet his motives for organizing his work around these brief but suggestive passages from Hegel's Phenomenology of Spirit have not been well ...
