15th-century printed Italian editions of Aesopian texts by Malaspina, M

“…</p> <p>It highlights how the introduction of the new medium did not correspond, at least within the first decades, to a standardisation in the written circulation of the rich Aesopian corpus; on the contrary, it fostered the composition of new versions, translations and rewritings, contributing to enhance its varied and multiform nature. …”

On the weak convergence of stochastic integrals on Skorokhod space: From general theory to applications within the realm of continuous-time random walks by Wunderlich, F

“…For stochastic integrals driven by strictly M1 convergent CTRWs and moving averages, where weak convergence may fail markedly, we determine natural classes of integrand processes that restore weak continuity. Not least, restricting to these classes yields functional limit theorems for certain stochastic delay differential equations driven by moving averages.…”

Networks of care for the modern adolescent by White, SR, Soneson, E, OxWell Study Team, Fazel, M

“…Informal sources had high acceptability, with around 80–90% reporting them as helpful, whereas child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS), helplines, and online supports were perceived to be the least helpful. The networks also identified groups who might not be optimally served by current systems, including gender diverse adolescents and adolescents who found mental health support from their parents unhelpful.…”

Soft law, hard stakes? State commitment to non-binding international instruments and the case of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples by Villeneuve, L

“…It is often assumed that its non-binding status upon adoption makes commitment to soft law a relatively inconsequential endeavor, at least in comparison to hard law. In this thesis, incorporating insights from public international law into rationalist IR approaches, I argue that soft law instruments can have important effects over time and bring substantial costs for states to bear. …”
