Students’ informal learning interactions in health professions education
Despite being recognised as complementary to formal learning, informal learning is not yet well understood. Using a qualitative synthesis approach, we systematically reviewed how students’ informal learning interactions are represented in health professions education research. Thirty-five articles were identified. Our three-stage analysis identified five themes: (1) conceptualisations and theoretical underpinning; (2) the what of informal learnin…

Tiny and Fragmented Votive Offerings from Classical Antiquity
This chapter addresses tiny and fragmented votive offerings from the ancient Greco-Roman world. The first half of the chapter surveys different kinds of votive fragmentation, ranging from objects that were physically ruptured before dedication, to conceptually ‘partial’ offerings like tithes and first fruits. I argue that the deliberate or accidental breakage of votives often paradoxically increased the value and meaning of the offering in the ey…
Votive Body Parts in Greek and Roman Religion
This book examines a type of object that was widespread and very popular in classical antiquity - votive offerings in the shape of parts of the human body. It collects examples from four principal areas and time periods: Classical Greece, pre-Roman Italy, Roman Gaul and Roman Asia Minor. It uses a compare-and-contrast methodology to highlight differences between these sets of votives, exploring the implications for our understandings of how belie…

Personifications and the Ancient Viewer
This article represents an initial exploration of how allegorical figures were made and viewed in classical antiquity. It focuses on a well‐known series of personifications which decorated a second‐century ce temple complex in the heart of Rome. Previous studies of these sculpted reliefs have engaged in lively debate about which nations are represented, without ever reflecting on the processes by which the group has been designed and made. Here t…
