The image depicted on the cover is a “full brain tractography with artistic color” (from the back cover).

      <image:caption>Fig. 1. Crop circles from White (2021): 116. Relevant text is featured on the previous page. Please note that Justin Barrett’s Hyperactive Agency Detection Device (or HADD) cited in the page shown above has failed to be replicated in lab conditions, and is now considered a “zombie theory”. As recently summarised by Will Gervais, “despite repeated empirical failures, you can still see HADD cited in the scientific literature. Nobody cites a compelling empirical result (presumably because there aren’t any). Instead, people tend to cite older review and conceptual papers that discussed HADD as if it were settled science, rather than an idea still awaiting evidence” (Gervais 2024: 98).</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Major linguistic families in the Italic peninsula. Please note that this map is not the territory: this is a simplified cartographic representation that ignores important local variations, relevant variants, non-Romance languages, and several additional isoglosses for the sake of the bigger picture. Also, please note that not all linguists agree on the Tuscan affinities of Corsican, and that the Central Italian Romanesco “dialect” (spoken in the metropolitan city of Rome) has been heavily influenced by Tuscan since the 16th century. Source: Lee (2000: 176). Note: on the rather peculiar position occupied by Ligurian among the Northern Italic “dialects”, see Toso 2009b: 18-20.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Visualising clades: a cladogram illustrating historical relationships of descent between extant primates. Common names in quotation marks on the right are used inappropriately to group together phylogenetically more distant primates (see, for instance, “prosimians” including tarsiers within Strepsirhini). Also, the different taxonomic units that include any given lower taxon constitute a sort of historically cumulative ID of the taxon in question, so that, for instance, going à rebours, bonobos, while still a member of subtribe Panini, are also members of the Hominini tribe, the Hominidae family, the Hominoidea superfamily, the Catarrhini parvorder, the Anthropoidea infraorder, etc. Credits: composition © Leonardo Ambasciano; silhouettes - Galago: Joseph Wolf, 1863 (vectorization by Dinah Challen) [No copyright] http://phylopic.org/image/7fb9bea8-e758-4986-afb2-95a2c3bf983d/; Loris: Mareike C.

      <image:title>Blog [EN] - The Future I Dreaded So Much Is Here. And It’s Scary (and Hot) as Hell - Make it stand out</image:title>
      <image:caption>Summer glamour. Big Oil companies are deploying all their skills to sway public opinion and lobby governments to water down any proactive initiative to fight climate change (McGreal 2021). The new trend is to glamorise climate change. Neutralise it by appealing to its potentially positive aspects. On the 4th of July 2021, the Italian weekday La Stampa supplement Specchio (“Mirror”) featured a celebratory - and irresponsible - cover hailing both the healing power of summer and the end of pandemic restrictions. The supplement cleverly managed to do that by reminding its readers of St Francis’ Canticle of the Creatures (1224), in which the Italian friar thanked God for giving humankind the warmth and the light of Brother Sun (“Fratello sole”). Even the BBC put up a shameless educational page about the “benefits” of climate change, like “healthier outdoor lifestyles” and “more resources, such as oil, becoming available in places such as Alaska and Siberia when the ice melts” (Horton 2021; the page was later removed). © La Stampa</image:caption>

      <image:caption>“Comics should not be read only by children.” From left to right: the first page of Giorgio Pezzin &amp; Guido Scala’s “Uncle Scrooge and a City in Plastic Fever” From Topolino #1538 (1986). Originally published by Arnoldo Mondadori Editore; Massimo De Vita’s cover on recycling, Topolino #1742 (1988), The Walt Disney Company Italia S.p.A.; Marco Rota’s cover, Topolino #1578 (1986): “Cheers for ecology!” The Walt Disney Company Italia S.p.A. All rights reserved © Disney. All images from Grand Comics Database. Topolino is an Italian weekly comic magazine which publishes original Disney stories. I inherited my older sister’s collection and I kept on expanding this family collection for as long as I could. As a kid, Topolino’s groundbreaking stories and reports about ecology informed my sense of responsibility. “To educate children with regard to gardening and nature protection can and should be done without missionary zeal but rather with a sense of humor and perhaps also with some self-mockery. That could be one message to be gained from comic literature. Maybe comics should not be read only by children, but also by those who have to deal with their education (Wolschke-Bulmahn and Gert Gröning 1994: 242). Let me rephrase that last sentence: everyone should read comics. Full stop.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FIGURE 1. The initial state of the Roman people’s morale (right) in Centurion: Defender of Rome, and the possible choices immediately available to the player to assuage their anger (mainly, “Tribute Policy” and “Hold Games;” left). Other possibilities to increase social status and prestige, and thus win the favor of both the people and the Senate, were: expansion and addition of provinces; signing diplomatic alliances; holding and winning chariot races or gladiatorial spectacles; and building an amphitheatre. Unlike provinces, Rome (i.e., the Italic Peninsula) could not be plundered (plundering would negatively impact prestige). The neurosocial states of the populace were: Rebellious (which foreboded revolt), Angry, Restless, or Content. ©1990 Bits of Magic/EA.</image:caption>

The “Religion” entry from the built-in encyclopedia (or Civilopedia) of Sid Meier’s Civilization, which describes the game’s understanding of religion as a terror-management civilization advance. Civilization’s Religion was the eminently ultrasocial product of the cumulative development of two previous technological advances, i.e., Philosophy and Writing. The implementation of Religion allowed for one further technological/architectural advance (“Cathedral improvement”) and the creation of two Wonders (“J.S. Bach's Cathedral” and “Michelangelo’s Chapel Wonder”). All had the effect of decreasing unhappiness in crowded social settings and increase social contentment. Two previous discrete advances in the technology tree, i.e., “Mysticism” and “Ceremonial Burial”, were not directly conducive to ultrasocial “Religion.” ©1991 MicroProse.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>FIGURE 2. Star Wars and the various disciplines involved in the study of religions seem to have followed roughly parallel historical trajectories after the end of the OT, reflecting or retreading for better or for worse grander socio-cultural trends.
