Languages, Memory and Religion: The Literature of the Morisco Diaspora
ABSTRACT Literature written by the Moriscos during their diaspora in North Africa, especially in the 17th century, offers three fundamental pillars for its analysis: the languages in which it is written, their emotional and intellectual relationship with their land of origin and their host countries, and, finally, religion.

Taxonomic Bias Persists in Ecology and Evolution Research Despite Decades of Concern
Ecology and evolution research shows strong and persistent taxonomic bias, with vertebrates increasingly dominating the literature over time. By analysing 1.38 million papers across 612 journals, we find that vertebrate studies appear more often in high‐impact journals and receive disproportionately greater citation and media attention.
