Abstract:
This book is a collection of some of the most interesting work by Maria Di Salvo compiled on the occasion of her sixty-fifth birthday. These articles reflect her intellectual curiosity, her clarity of exposition and the capacity to apply and amalgamate different methodologies and disciplines, blending them into a coherent whole despite the variety of topics and subjects of study. We have favoured the essays that are harder to get hold of, making selections that enable the identification of two essential groups: the philological and literary studies and those related to the relations between Russia and Italy. We trust that the choices made will offer an organic overview of the intellectual and academic career of Maria Di Salvo, including the latest 'new path' of research, that on punctuation in the Slavic languages, and while awaiting the imminent publication by Edizioni dell'Orso, of the part devoted to Russia in the memoirs of Filippo Balatri, the famous castrato sent by the Grand Duke of Tuscany to the Russian court at the end of the seventeenth century.

Abstract:
A network is specified by its links and nodes. However, it can be described by a much wider range of interesting and important topological features. This chapter introduces how a network can be characterized by its microscopic topological features and macroscopic topological features. Microscopic features introduced are degree and clustering coefficients. Macroscopic topological features introduced are the degree distribution; correlation between degrees of connected nodes; modularity; and, the eigenvalue spectrum (which counts the number of closed paths in the graph).

Abstract:
This article is concerned with the triangular territory between biomedicine, relevant moving image media production, and lay people — sometimes cinematic subjects, sometimes patients, and sometimes audiences. The examples quoted — mainly British — arise from the period stretching from the late nineteenth century up to the 1960s. The significant costs and effort involved in producing medical films and programmes make their existence in certain times and places particularly interesting evidence for the terrain of biomedicine in the past. The three modes of medical film and television are discussed and they stand for different aspects of biomedicine. This article provides an understanding of how biomedicine came to be made and used and gives access to the politics and social attitudes of participants in interesting ways. The coverage of each mode of film-making is concentrated in the decade of its emergence.

Abstract:
In the Conclusion of the Handbook, we acknowledge the diversity of perspectives represented in its various chapters, but at the same time outline converging patterns and trace some paths for moving forward. We observe how the “definitional war” that affected the field in its early years seems to have finally settled around a core set of often-complimentary perspectives (e.g. social actor, social constructionist, institutional, discursive, etc.) that investigate different research questions. Scholars also seem to be shifting their attention to the way that organizational identity—as a “work in progress” rather than a stable state—is constantly constructed and reconstructed and is thus permanently “becoming.” This focus on time and process not only opens interesting avenues for the study of change and stability in organizational identity, but also carries important ontological and methodological implications about the study of identities. We also observe how the adoption of new perspectives (e.g. institutional, political) may improve our understanding of the nature and causes of plurality and complexity in organizational identities, and may highlight important multilevel linkages between individuals, organizations, and external forces. Finally, we note a variety of contemporary trends affecting organizations and speculate on how they may impact the very nature of identity in and of organizations.

Abstract:
This is a unique chapter that discusses classical path integrals in both configuration space and phase space. It examines both Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulations before qualitatively discussing some interesting features of gauge fixing. This formulation is then linked to superspace and Grassmann variables for a fermionic field theory. The chapter then shows that the corresponding operatorial formulation is none other than the Koopman–von Neumann theory. In parallel to quantum theory, the classical propagator or the transition amplitude between two classical states is given exactly by the phase space partition function. The functional Dirac delta is discussed, and the chapter closes by briefly mentioning Faddeev–Popov ghosts, which were introduced earlier in the chapter.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses the basic properties of the group of symplectomorphisms of a compact connected symplectic manifold and its subgroup of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms. It begins by showing that the group of symplectomorphisms is locally path-connected and then moves on to the flux homomorphism. The main result here is a theorem of Banyaga that characterizes the Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms in terms of the flux homomorphism. In the noncompact case there is another interesting homomorphism, called the Calabi homomorphism, that takes values in the reals and may be defined on the universal cover of the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms. The chapter ends with a brief comparison of the topological properties of the group of symplectomorphisms with those of the group of diffeomorphisms.

Abstract:
This chapter elucidates philosophical and religious aspects of ancient dance discourse. It traces novel connections from the poetic and philosophical motif of the dance of the stars to later ancient dance discourse. A link is found in the genre of exhortations (protreptics) to philosophy, which influenced Lucian’s On Dancing, and in the philosophical ideal of heavenly contemplation. The latter yields a particularly interesting variation by Augustine, who finds in dance spectacles an occasion to know things through themselves. The remainder of the chapter discusses the evidence for the role of dancing in ancient mystery cults and argues that in this context dance represents a way to attain cognition through sensory and emotional experience. This path is pursued further with an examination of the early Christian dance ritual depicted in the apocryphal Acts of John.

Abstract:
A consistent overrepresentation of men in recorded violent crimes and thus a certain disposition of male aggressiveness has been evident from the late Middle Ages to today. However, we can also detect several major shifts in the history of interpersonal male violence from the eighteenth century onward. From a cultural historical perspective, violent actions by men or women cannot be interpreted as contingent, individual acts, but rather must be seen as practices embedded in sociocultural contexts and accompanied by informal norms. Because one grand theory cannot account convincingly for the history of violence and masculinity, an array of approaches is more likely to shed light on the issue. Interestingly, shifts in the history of violence have often corresponded with changes to prevailing notions of masculinity. This essay delineates the relevant historical shifts from the early modern “culture of dispute” to the different paths of interpersonal violence over the twentieth century.

Abstract:
The 2020 edition marks the twentieth anniversary of the Global Community Yearbook of International Law and Jurisprudence. The journal's founding editor, Professor G. Ziccardi Capaldo, is a pioneer of global law, and she has served as General Editor since the first edition. In her Editorial (for this volume) she makes a number of interesting points about the Yearbook’s intellectual trajectory, as developed from its original roots, while outlining the progress that has occurred over the years, the new ways and perspectives. This celebratory edition arrives at a point of time in history where the field of global law is undergoing deep transformations. The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic has clearly highlighted the contemporary crisis of global governance institutions and norms. She underscores the challenges in what she believes to be a transitional phase. She also draws up the contours for the journal’s new path. Furthermore, addressing the remarkable results already achieved, she expresses her warmest thanks to the members of the Editorial and Advisory Boards, as well as to the Oxford University Press team, together with authors and reviewers. It is their unwavering support and dedicated contributions to the success of the journal which makes all the difference.

Abstract:
This book tells the story of numismatics, the study of coins, as part of the larger history of money. It explains why and where coinage was invented and how this monetary revolution spread around the world. By examining sources ranging from Aristotle and the Gospels to modern novels and TV sitcoms, this book highlights how historians, philosophers, poets, and religious leaders have used coinage to investigate, teach, and preach about human societies. It uses new ideas about memes and object agency to ask whether coins can act as though independent of human oversight. It details how numismatists have become more scientific since the Renaissance, although misuses of physiognomy and phrenology still hamper the field. Coins are studied not solely as individual works of art, but also as meaningful groups brought together as treasures called hoards. The analysis of buried hoards offers many interesting insights into human behavior, particularly in times of political turmoil and natural disaster. Although numismatics shares a common origin with archaeology, these disciplines have clashed in recent history, particularly over the disputed rights of amateurs to collect artifacts of historical importance. This book explores the ethics of coin collecting and considers whether paleontology might provide a model for the future of numismatics. New forms of numismatic investigation, such as Cognitive Numismatics, also pave a novel path for one of the oldest and most respected contributors to the arts and humanities.

Abstract:
William Faulkner’s first ventures into print culture began far from the world of highbrow publishing with which he is typically associated—the world of New York publishing houses, little magazines, and literary prizes—though they would come to encompass that world as well. This collection explores Faulkner’s multifaceted engagements, as writer and reader, with the US and international print cultures of his era, along with the ways in which these cultures have mediated his relationship with a variety of twentieth- and twenty-first-century audiences. The essays gathered here address the place of Faulkner and his writings in the creation, design, publishing, marketing, reception, and collecting of books, in the culture of twentieth-century magazines, journals, newspapers, and other periodicals (from pulp to avant-garde), in the history of modern readers and readerships, and in the construction and cultural politics of literary authorship. Six contributors focus on Faulkner’s sensational 1931 novel Sanctuary as a case study illustrating the author’s multifaceted relationship to the print ecology of his time, tracing the novel’s path from the wellsprings of Faulkner’s artistic vision to the novel’s reception among reviewers, tastemakers, intellectuals, and other readers of the early 1930s. Faulkner’s midcentury critical rebranding as a strictly highbrow modernist, disdainful of the market and impervious to literary trends or the corruption of commerce, has buried the much more interesting complexity of his ongoing engagements with print culture and its engagements with him. This collection will spur critical interest in the intersection of Faulkner’s writing career and the unrespectable, experimental, and audacious realities of interwar and Cold War print culture.
