Journal Article
Moore, T., Guichard, V., & Álvarez Sanchís, J. (2020). The place of archaeology in integrated cultural landscape management. A case study comparing landscapes with Iron Age oppida in England, France and Spain. Journal of European Landscapes, 1, 9-28. https://doi.org/10.5117/jel.2020.1.47039

Across Europe, landscape is recognised as a frame through which societal values are defined and embedded. The European Landscape convention and wider research has drawn attention to the need for integrating a diverse range of stakeholders to ensure l...

The power of color (2020)
Journal Article
Marmodoro, A., & Grasso, M. (2020). The power of color. American Philosophical Quarterly, 57(1), 65-78

Are colors features of objects “out there in the world” or are they features of our inner experience and only “in our head?” Color perception has been the focus of extensive philosophical and scientific debate. In this paper we discuss the limitation... Read More about The power of color.

Measuring the Faraday effect in olive oil using permanent magnets and Malus' law (2020)
