This chapter introduces the research area by proposing the angle of privacy to analyse the subject of everyday conversations in early modern Europe. Such conversations are especially hard to tackle, as they were very rarely recorded, either for being considered trivial exchanges or for dealing with issues that people preferred to keep out of public scrutiny. Nevertheless, through a careful explora
This epilogue wraps up the findings of the volume by weaving together key elements of the previous chapters. It first provides a summary of the different reasons for talking in private, locations where the exchanges took place, and expectations connected to private conversations that are presented in the case studies. The typically dual character of private conversations as a danger—but also as a
Understanding how affect interacts with the neural dynamics of syntactic processing remains an open question in neurolinguistics. While syntactic anomaly detection has been extensively characterised through electrophysiological markers such as LAN and P600, the extent to which pervasive affective states, or moods, modulate these components is still poorly understood. Existing studies suggest that
The transition towards low-carbon societies is creating winners and losers, raising new questions of justice. Around the world, litigation increasingly articulates these justice questions, challenging laws, projects and policies that aim to deliver climate change adaptation and/or mitigation. In this Perspective, we define and conceptualize the phenomenon of ‘just transition litigation’. This conc
This study examined the relationship between motion sickness and physiological responses in a driving simulator (N = 20) and a real vehicle (N = 10). Subjective motion sickness severity was assessed using the Misery SCale (MISC) while electroencephalogram (EEG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) were recorded. MISC ratings over time classified participants as tolerant (mild, stable discomfort) or vulnera
