The three articles in this “In Focus” section originated as papers delivered at Material Matters, the tenth annual conference of the Atlantic Mediaeval Association held at Dalhousie University and the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, September 22–23, 2017. The conference itself was inspired by, and timed to coincide with, a major exhibition at the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia — Centuries of Silence: the Discovery of the Salzinnes Antiphonal, which ran from May 2017 to January 2018 and was curated by Judith Dietz. The three papers, by Marianne Gillion, Annaliese Renck and Sébastien Rossignol, situate the Salzinnes Antiphonal in myriad ways, by focusing on books from the decades stretching across the turn of the sixteenth century, from the 1490s to the 1510s.

Half Decade

This past May more than 250 members of the Child Life Council gathered in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, for their annual conference and celebrated the fifth anniversary of the organization. Established in 1982 under the auspices of the Association for the Care of Children's Health, this young organization has grown steadily and now numbers nearly 700 members. In another indication of the development of the profession of child life, more than 300 individuals were granted certification as child life specialists in 1986/1987, the first year in which certification was available. As the Child Life Council enters its second half-decade, and because the profession shows additional signs of maturation, it would be wise to reflect on the contributions made by this relatively new member of the pediatric health care team.

The City

The Orsini Colonna castle of Avezzano represents one of the most important historic buildings in the internal area of Abruzzo. Founded at the end of the fifteenth century, on the rests of an older structure, with continuing modification till the sixteenth century, the building had several damages with the earthquake of January thirteenth 1915, which destroyed the entire city Avezzano and the neighborhood, causing more than 30000 victims. After the quake event, the efforts and the works for the preservation didn’t have the time to start, because of the beginning of the world wars; in particular, the castle suffered more damages with the three different bombardments on the city in 1943 and 1944. The first works of recovering and restoration were achieved in 1964 by the Genio Civile of Avezzano, the corps of engineers, with the direction of Tommaso Orlandi; in this intervention, the building had been interested by the recovering of the structures, with the reconstruction of the perimeter walls, also with the purpose of avoiding deterioration and the complete abandonment. The second works were conducted by the architect Alessandro Del Bufalo, who designed the restoration of the entire building, inserting an internal concert hall in the courtyard with a new structure in steel and glass, recovering the castle basement under the towers, and creating a modern art gallery museum in the second level. The works finished in 1994. This paper aims to redefine the historical development of the building, focusing in particular on the restoration interventions of the last century, and their different methods in the efforts of preservation, which approached to the preservation and reconstruction of the building in different ways.

Japanese Identity

In the pre-modern period, Japanese identity was articulated in contrast with China. It was, however, articulated in reference to criteria that were commonly accepted in the whole East-Asian cultural sphere; criteria, therefore, that were Chinese in origin.One of the fields in which Japan's conception of a Japanese identity was enacted was that of foreign relations, i.e. of Japan's relations with China, the various kingdoms in Korea, and from the second half of the sixteenth century onwards, with the Portuguese, Spaniards, Dutchmen, and the Kingdom of the Ryūkū.
