We would like to express our heartfelt gratitude to those who supported this book project through their invaluable contributions, in particular participants’ excellent papers and insightful discussions during the workshop that formed the basis of this book. Our sincere thanks go to Konstantin Helm, Judith Neder, Robyn Travers, and Lina Bräu for their organisational support before and during the workshop. From designing the programme to managing media equipment and ensuring the comfort of our guests, their efforts were crucial in creating a successful event. We are immensely grateful to Leah Barnes for her thoughtful proof-reading of the draft chapters and her resourceful support in the process of choosing the cover image for this volume. A special thanks is owed to Nisan Karaca Odabasi for her meticulous mechanical editing of the manuscript. Her careful attention to detail was greatly appreciated.
