Correction to: “Reality” and Representation in Mechanics: The Legacy of Walter Noll

The foundations of the mechanics of generalized continua are revisited in the light of the theoretical progress made in the last decades. The paper includes a summary of the scientific activity of W. Noll, to whom a large part of this progress is due.
