Kay Sage : catalogue raisonnâe
\"The catalogue raisonnâe covers Sage's mature style of work from 1934 to 1961. Separated into four sections, the book features over 230 entries with full-page, color reproductions throughout: 138 paintings, 22 collages, 51 works on paper, and 23 constructions. A number of works are presented for the first time. Also included is a small group of Sage's rarely seen, earlier academic work produced in Italy. A poetic and thoughtful essay by Mary Ann Caws delves into the Sage's life, bringing to light new insight into the artist's very personal practice. A chronology by Sage scholar Stephen Robeson Miller provides new research and documentation. Both are fully illustrated\"-- Provided by publisher.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK REPORTS
Since 2019 a central mainstay of the archaeological research at the British School at Rome (BSR) has been the Rome Transformed Project, undertaken in partnership with Newcastle University (UK), the University of Florence and the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR), funded by the European Research Council (Grant agreement no. 835271). Excavations led by university revealed the long occupation at the site, with recovered material dating from the Bronze Age through until the early Imperial period. Building upon the research undertaken across the Eastern Caelian, the use of non-invasive techniques has been extended to study an adjacent area to the south alongside the Aurelian walls.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK REPORTS
The British School at Rome's 2023 fieldwork programme had as its primary focus the completion of the data capture element of the Rome Transformed Project (https://research.ncl.ac.uk/rometrans) and the expansion of activities in support of the Falerii Novi Project (www.faleriinoviproject.org). The Rome Transformed Project, launched in October 2019, is funded as an Advanced Grant by the European Research Council (Grant Agreement No. 835271) and has brought together researchers from the University of Newcastle, the British School at Rome, the Università degli Studi di Firenze and the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche. Over a four-year period, the team has explored, through a range of non-invasive methods, the archaeology of the Eastern Caelian Hill (Haynes et al., 2023). As the project enters its final phase, the detailed analysis that has been conducted of the standing remains, as well as a programme of high-resolution recording, has led to a new understanding of this key area in Rome between the second and eighth centuries AD.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK REPORTS
In 2021 the British School at Rome, together with the universities of Harvard and Toronto, launched the Falerii Novi Project, a long-term study that seeks to explore the foundation, development and subsequent abandonment of the Roman town and evaluate it within the broader regional landscape (Andrews et al., 2023). This research builds upon a long tradition of research by the BSR, in particular the South Etruria Survey, the results of which have recently been reassessed by the BSR's Tiber Valley Project. The Falerii Novi Project therefore represents a new chapter in the BSR's long history of excavation in South Etruria, with the research now supported by scientific advances in environmental archaeology, geophysical prospection and material analysis, elements that are central to the project.The study of Roman urbanism has for many years been the focus of archaeological research at the BSR, principally through the application of geophysical prospection. Whilst several surveys over the past year have been in support of the research conducted by partners, several new BSR initiatives were commenced with the aim of broadening the scope and application of these non-invasive surveys.

Postretrenchment Politics: Policy Feedback in Chile's Health and Pension Reforms
Through a comparison of three periods of health and pension reform in Chile, this article develops an explanation for the incremental form of social policy change that some Latin American nations have witnessed in recent years, despite the dramatic rise of left governments. It describes \"postretrenchment politics,\" which constitutes a realignment in the way politics plays out in countries that have undergone social policy retrenchment. In postretrenchment politics, the strengthened position of private business interests, combined with political learning legacies and lock-in effects generated by reforms, results in incremental political change, despite renewed efforts by left parties to address inequality. Global capital also plays an important contextual role, and may influence postretrenchment politics. In postretrenchment politics, newly reformed systems may achieve greater equity, but they do so in fragmented form.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK REPORTS
The fieldwork of the ERC-funded Rome Transformed project had in part been affected, as whilst the geophysical component of the research was able to continue through Italy-based teams, other surveys including structural analysis and laser scanning had been postponed. [...]the past year has seen a flurry of activity with a particular focus on the Sessorian palace complex at Santa Croce. The initial results of the project from the geophysical surveys and structural analysis of the hydraulic systems were presented at several online project workshops over the course of the year. [...]San Donato in Scopeto by contrast is an open-air ruin, demolished in 1529 in preparations for a siege of Florence.

THE FIRST MILE OF THE VIA LATINA PROJECT, ROME
The first mile of the Via Latina Project, a collaboration between the British School at Rome (BSR) and the Norwegian Institute in Rome (DNIR), aims to conduct a comprehensive study of the development from antiquity to modern times of the area of the via Latina located within the Aurelian Walls. The new project aims to build upon this existing body of research, drawing upon archival and bibliographic resources as well as conducting new field research with the aim of documenting the history of this first stretch of the Via Latina. Prominence will be given to the application of non-invasive methods including Ground-Penetrating Radar, topographical recording and 3D terrestrial laser scanning to record the standing monuments.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL FIELDWORK REPORTS
The 2019 archaeological fieldwork reports see the culmination of several BSR supported projects that have been reported in these pages over the past years. The Lateran Project, a long-running collaboration between Newcastle University, the Università degli Studi di Firenze, the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR) and the BSR had its final season in 2019 and has published this summer The Basilica of Saint John Lateran to 1600 (L. Bosman, I.P. Haynes, P. Liverani, British School at Rome Studies series). The success and significant findings of the project, led by Professor Ian Haynes, encouraged the team to extend this study across the eastern part of the Caelian Hill, which has been made possible through a 5-year Advanced Grant of the European Research Council (ERC), the first field season of which is reported in the following pages.

EXCAVATIONS AT ‘LA CUMA’, MONTE RINALDO (COMUNE DI MONTE RINALDO, PROVINCIA DI FERMO, REGIONE MARCHE)
The 2019 season of archaeological research at the Latin sanctuary site of Monte Rinaldo by the University of Bologna and the British School at Rome had two main objectives: the continued excavation of a range of buildings discovered in 2018 in the western area of the complex (Giorgi and Kay, 2019) and to conduct further geophysical surveys in the surrounding area with the aim of locating other structures associated to the sanctuary in order to understand better the context of the site. The previous season of geophysical prospection at the sanctuary (Demma, Giorgi, Kay, 2018) had concentrated on a lower area to the east of the site, investigated using magnetometry, and within the sanctuary itself where both magnetometry and Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR) were tested to examine the near subsurface of the site. The data were collected at a sample interval of 0.25 m in parallel zig-zag traverses at a regular distance of 0.5 m. The magnetometer survey revealed a series of anomalies of high magnetic value (Fig. 2), which appear to relate to archaeological remains (Kay et al., 2020).
