Spaces of the Past, Histories of the Present: An Interview with Stuart Elden and Derek Gregory
Get PDFThe ontologies of space and territory, our experience of them and the techniques we use to govern them, the very conception of the socio-spatial formations that we inhabit, are all historically specific: they depend on a genealogy of practices, knowledges, discourses, regulations, performances and representations articulated in a way that is extremely complex yet nevertheless legible over time. In this interview we look at the logic and the patterns that intertwine space and time — both as objects and tools of inquiry — though a cross-disciplinary dialogue. The discussion with Stuart Elden and Derek Gregory covers the place of history in socio-spatial theory and in their own work, old and new ways of thinking about the intersection between history and territory, space and time, the implications of geography and history for thinking about contemporary politics, and the challenges now faced by critical thought and academic work in the current neo-liberal attack on public universities and the welfare stat
Relationships between transport and the rural economies
Get PDFThis review was commissioned by the Countryside Agency to explore the impact of the transport sector, including transport provision, on rural economies in England. The research, by Derek Halden Consultancy in association with the Employment Research Institute, Napier University, sought to: collate what is known from existing recent literature about the main links between transport and rural economies and the transport needs of rural businesses, and; validate the relationships through survey work to explain the ways in which transport can most effectively benefit rural economies. It found that relationships between transport and rural economies are defined by accessibility and by the capacity and skills of people and businesses. Key factors influencing these relationships are: - Infrastructure, people and knowledge networks - Quality and reliability of service provision - Skills and training Culture and expectations - Legislation, administration and taxation. Whilst efficiency in urban areas can more often benefit from economies of scale, in rural areas there are relatively greater benefits from widening the scope of service delivery. However this requires better joint working between firms, organisations and public agencies than has been common practice in the past
Ekphrasis through otherness: the transformation of imagery in Derek Walcott's White Egrets
Get PDFDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-Graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2015.Abstract : Opposing the contemporary literary reductionism of ekphrasis to a verbal representation of a painting, a sculpture, a drawing, or a photograph, this research views otherness as the object of contemplation. Through the present rereading of ekphrasis, the investigation will seek 1) to analyze how the ekphrastic characteristics of Walcott`s poetry in his latest work White Egrets promote more companionship than antagonistic views between poetry and painting, and; 2) to analyze how ekphrasis transforms the imagery of Derek Walcott`s créole identity into an aesthetic object of contemplation, depicting it in the similar way of a work of art. More specifically, the discussion analyses how the cultural relations/representations between the self and the other provide an ?ekphrastic situation? for Derek Walcott in the Caribbean?s complex colonial legacy. The poet`s ekphrastic act to render private and personal identity intimacies will lean on the nonfixity of the image, or its motion in stasis. The main theoretical concepts that sustain this investigation are drawn from the works of W.J.T. Mitchell (1980, 1986, 1994, 1996), Cheeke (2008), Loizeaux (2008), and Hall (1989, 1993, 1996, 1997).Opondo-se ao reducionismo literário contemporâneo de que a écfrase seja somente uma representação verbal de uma pintura, uma escultura, um desenho ou uma fotografia, esta pesquisa vê a própria alteridade como objeto de contemplação. Através desta releitura da écfrase, a presente investigação visa 1) analisar como as características ecfrásticas da poesia de Derek Walcott em sua última coleção de poesias intitulada White Egrets (Garças Brancas) propiciam mais companheirismo que visões antagônicas entre poesia e pintura, e; 2) analisar como a écfrase transforma a imagem da identidade crioula de Derek Walcott em um objeto estético de contemplação, retratando-a de uma forma semelhante a uma obra de arte. Mais especificamente, a discussão analisa como as relações/representações culturais entre o eu-individual e o outro propiciam uma  situação ecfrástica para Derek Walcott no complexo legado colonial Caribenho. O ato ecfrástico do poeta ao relatar aspectos privados e pessoais de sua identidade revelar-se-á embasado na infixidez da imagem, ou seja, seu imobilismo em movimento. Os principais conceitos teóricos que sustentam esta investigação foram retirados das obras de W.J.T. Mitchell (1980, 1986, 1994, 1996), Cheeke (2008), Loizeaux (2008), e Hall (1989, 1993, 1996, 1997)
