Examining the moderating role of generative AI in advancing teachers’ professional competencies through self-directed learning
This study examines the moderating role of Generative AI (GenAI) in the relationship between Self-Directed Learning (SDL) and Teacher Professional Competencies (TPC) among 363 high school teachers in Ghana. Utilizing Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM), the study empirically confirms that SDL significantly enhances all three dimensions of TPC: Professional Values and Attitudes, Professional Knowledge (PK), and Profession…
Associations between residents’ experience and compliance, staffing and clinical quality Star Ratings for Australian residential long-term care homes
BACKGROUND: Public reporting systems are increasingly used to promote transparency and accountability in the delivery and quality of long-term care (LTC). Australia's Star Ratings system includes resident experience measures, offering an opportunity to assess their added informational value relative to more commonly used quality indicators. OBJECTIVE: To examine whether resident experience ratings capture distinct aspects of quality in residentia…

Shared Site Intergenerational Care Programs with Older Adults and Young Children
Shared site intergenerational care programs (SSICPs) integrate care services for old and young generations in co-located contexts. A common form combines residential aged care and childcare services within a single site that is home to older adults and contains a childcare center. At present, SSICPs are under-researched and under-developed. Consequently, the aim of this scoping review is to review evidence on this type of SSICP, informing their f…
What are the Factors Influencing Service Provider Response to Working with Families Affected by Intimate Partner Violence and Abuse? A Qualitative Systematic Review of the Literature
Purpose Intimate partner violence and abuse (IPVA) is a major public health issue with long-term negative impacts on abused adults and affected children. Addressing this complex problem requires a multi-agency response, but barriers to effective joint working remain. This review aimed to understand the factors that influence multi-agency response to families who experience IPVA and to their children. Method We undertook a qualitative systematic r…

Ovidian Influences and Figural Obsessions in Michelangelo’s Fall of Phaethon Drawings
Cultural Genocide
Raphael Lemkin invented the word “genocide” after spending decades researching the consequences of kingdoms and states colonizing peoples in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Melanesia and the Pacific Islands from the 15th century to the present. He concluded that colonization had the effect of destroying peoples “in whole or in part” by destroying their cultures. In this essay the authors introduce and examine the major characteristics of cultural des…

Can Exposure to Online Conversations About Death and Dying Influence Death Competence? An Exploratory Study Within an Australian Massive Open Online Course
A Massive Open Online Course, Dying2Learn, was designed to foster community death conversations and strengthen community awareness of palliative care and death as a normal process. This exploratory study used a pre–post prospective design to determine if participation in Dying2Learn and exposure to online conversations about death and dying resulted in any significant influence on death competence in 134 participants who completed the Coping-with…
The Function of Michelangelo in Vasari’s Lives
The Historical Presidency
John F. Kennedy was a voracious reader and he put his reading to work in his speeches. His favorite quotation was from Dante: “The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who in times of moral crisis preserve their neutrality.” Throughout his career, he cited Dante more than 25 times. This essay traces Kennedy's deployment of two Dante quotations and analyzes their sources and the rhetoric surrounding them. Kennedy employed famous authors l…
An Evidence‐Based Approach to Scoping Reviews
Music therapy meets the Syrian refugee community
Guidance for conducting systematic scoping reviews
Reviews of primary research are becoming more common as evidence-based practice gains recognition as the benchmark for care, and the number of, and access to, primary research sources has grown. One of the newer review types is the 'scoping review'. In general, scoping reviews are commonly used for 'reconnaissance' - to clarify working definitions and conceptual boundaries of a topic or field. Scoping reviews are therefore particularly useful whe…
Illuminating Botticelli’s Chart of Hell
This essay explores Botticelli’s Chart of Hell which represents an ingenious interpolation of the first canticle. The chart is one of ninety illustrations which the artist (1445–1510) executed for a lavish codex of the Commedia commissioned by Lorenzo di Pierfrancesco de’ Medici. Parker argues that one can read the map as one does the poem albeit in a distinctly different way. The essay seeks to provide a different perspective on the chart, one t…

The Role of Letters in Biographies of Michelangelo
This study examines the role that Michelangelo’s letters have played in biographies of the artist. It focuses on two periods — the Renaissance and the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the latter witnessing an outpouring of biographies on Michelangelo. The first section of the study examines the way in which Giorgio Vasari edited the letters he received from Michelangelo in his 1568 vita of the sculptor. In the second section I analy…

Towards a Reading of Bronzino's Burlesque Poetry
In his “Capitolo in Lode Del Dappoco,” a facetious tribute to the worthless person, the painter Agnolo Bronzino (1503-72) muses to his cat Corimbo about how he likes to spend his evenings: “Tu sai Corimbo, che tal volta io leggo/ così nel letto, per adormentarmi,/ o quando, com'or teco al fuoco seggo;/ e hai veduto anche scombiccherarmi/ qualche foglio e compor qualche cosetta/ per passar tempo e ‘1 cervel ricriarmi (You know Corimbo that I read …

in his 1569 Epistola qua ad multas multorum amicorum respondet de suae typographiae statu nominatimque de suo thesauro linguae graecae , the Parisian printer Henri II Estienne decries the participation of women in the book trade: “But beyond all those evils which have now been brought on by the ignorance of printers, male and female (for this only remains to add to the disgrace of the art, that even the little ladies have been practicing it), who…
Residential Aged Care Facilities
This article explores residential aged care facilities (RACFs) as places of dying and death, and the role these spaces and places have in the construction of self identity for dying residents. It argues that RACFs, rather than being static places where events such as dying and death occur, are places that shape these experiences. They are social institutions where the construction of self identity for dying residents arises out of the individual …

Dante's Poets
By systematically analyzing Dante's attitudes toward the poets who appear throughout his texts, Teodolinda Barolini examines his beliefs about the limits and purposes of textuality and, most crucially, the relationship of textuality to truth.Originally published in 1984.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton Universi…
Beyond Plagiarism
The imminent publication of Bernardino Daniello's 1568 commentary to the Comedy in a new edition by the University Press of New England-one of the first tangible fruits of the Dante Dartmouth Project-is sure to generate new assessments of its merits. It is also bound to re-open the question of the extent of Daniello's plagiarism of Trifone Gabriele's unpublished Annotazioni nel Dante fatte con messer Trifone in Bassano (circa 1526-7).

Tragedy and Comedy from Dante to Pseud-Dante. Henry Ansgar Kelly
Commentary as Social Act
In his prefatory letter to Cristoforo Landino's commentary to the Comedy, Marsilio Ficino presents a dramatic encounter between Dante and Florence. The city's lament over Dante's long absence moves Apollo to command Mercury to possess the “pious“ mind of the “divine poet” Cristoforo Landino. Mercury then assumes Landino's countenance, arouses Dante from his sleep with a life-giving wand, and transports him to Florence. There, Dante is gloriously …

The poetry of patronage
This study examines Bronzino's lyric poems to the Medici. It focuses on the three canzoni which the painter wrote to gain readmission to the Accademia Fiorentina in 1566 and the laments he wrote on the deaths of Eleonora di Toledo and her two sons, Giovanni and Garzia. Particular attention is paid to an examination of the metaphors of rule employed by Bronzino in these paeons to this patrons. Just like his portraits of Cosimo I de’ Medici and his…
