The lordship of Galloway c. 1000 to c. 1250
No full textThe recorded history of the lordship under the House of Fergus
lasted from only e. 1130 to 1231, but its origins lie in the fusion of
the various peoples settled there by c. 1000. A blend of Celtic and
Germanic groups created a hybrid culture that had more in common with
Man and the Isles than mainland Scotland. Galwegian attitudes to and
relationship with Scotland before c. 1130 are unclear, but ties with
York and Man had greater value than Scottish claims to overlordship.
The emergence of a powerful line of rulers kept the ambitions of the
Crown in check, but any divisions in their ranks were exploited by the
Scots. Close family links with the Plantagenet kings provided a
counterbalance to Scottish interference, but brought English
overlordship instead. This had the side-effect of securing the
separation of the see of Whithorn from the Scottish Church.
Marriage and kinship ties brought the lords political power in
Scotland, England and Man, and control of estates outwith the
lordship. This in turn led to the closer integration of Galloway into
Scotland as its rulers gained high office in the kingdom. Thus the
lords developed a dual character as Anglo-Scottish baron and Celtic
chieftain. Introduction of Normanised colonists and the development
of 'feudal' military tenures fostered this transition and eroded
regional particularism. Integration was accelerated by elimination of
the male line and partition between heiresses married into
Anglo-Norman families. Division broke the power of Galloway, weakened
the influence of its new rulers over the Galwegians and gave the Crown
the control for which it had long striven

Sustainability in the Bachelor of Business refresh
Full text linkAs Curriculum Scholar in the Faculty of Law Business and Creative Arts (FLBCA) I have joined colleagues in the School of Business in the refresh of the B Bus.1 My role specifically has been to support development of the planned curriculum in terms of its alignment with the themes of the curriculum refresh – principally sustainability, but through this concept, internationalisation, the tropics and Indigenous perspectives. Working with an existing foundation for curriculum design through a thematic lens, (Galloway, 2011a; Galloway, Shircore, Corbett-Jarvis, & Bradshaw, 2012; Jones & Galloway, 2012 (in press)) stage one involved familiarisation with the business education literature specifically concerning education for sustainability (eg Duncan et al., 2011; Wilcox et al., 2012). Importantly however, the role of curriculum scholar has not been to deal with discipline content or skills – but rather to facilitate colleagues' orientation of their particular discipline and subject area in terms of the curriculum refresh themes. Accordingly, this paper identifies the means by which the enacted curriculum may be supported in terms of the curriculum refresh themes (Erickson, 2002; Galloway, 2011a; Jones & Galloway, 2012 (in press)), following principles of constructive alignment (Biggs, 1996)

The minority of King James V, 1513-1528
No full textThe thesis is a detailed study of Scottish central government
institutions, personnel and policies during the long and politically complex
minority of James V 1513-1528. Research has been undertaken principally in
the records of the Lords of Council which have never been published nor
examined intensively for this period. Documents from various family
collections further supplement the wide range of record sources which have
been published, particularly the Letters and Papers..., and State Papers of
Henry VIII. The contribution ma4g by contemporary and later chroniclers has
also been examined with the conclusion that their contributions are of some
value, provided that due recognition is given to their motivation for writing
history.
Examination of the role and influence of faction at Court, pro-English
against pro-French, has broadened the scope of the thesis to include
discussion of the wider themes of Scottish foreign policy in the early
sixteenth century. Consideration is also given to the effect of the
unprecedented opportunities presented to England and France for interference
through the rival claims to authority made by Queen Margaret Tudor, mother of
James V, and John, Duke of Albany, the nearest male relative of the young
King. The complex political machinations following Albany's final departure
in 1524, which led to the domination of the Scottish government by Archibald,
6th Earl of Angus, during the final years of James V's minority are discussed
at length.
The conclusion is that the development of royal autocracy was hindered
by the King's youth and that this minority contributes to the evidence that,
in general, minorities acted as a safety-valve in the development of Scottish
government, preserving a balance between the interests of crown and magnates.
Nevertheless, there was a genuine desire shown by the magnates to have a
Governor able to act as if he was a-king of full age because of the advantage
such a position could bring, especially in foreign relations. Government did
not stagnate because there was no adult king

Polyphony and the anxiety of influence in the fiction of Henry James
Full text linkJames's fiction, especially in the Middle Phase, centres
on the figure of the artist and is characterized by, the two
interrelated aspects which previous criticism has largely
overlooked: the Bakhtinian 'polyphonic' -creation of
'author-thinkers'; and the conflict between ephebes and
precursors, for which Harold-Bloom's concept of 'the-anxiety of
influence' is the most illuminating model. Polyphony is the
narrative mode, and influence is the intra-artistic, theme.
These, as the Introduction to the thesis makes clear, are
rehearsed in James's inaugural novel, Roderick Hudson. Rowland
Mallet is an author-thinker, and his failure is caused by
authorial limitations. His monologism -is impaired by his
mistaking empathy for the authorial sympathy. Likewise,
Hudson's failure does not arise from a mercurial temperament,
but from a polyphonic shortcoming: not possessing the power of
fiction to contain the fiction of power in, his mentor. And the
relationships among the three artists - Gloriani, Hudson and
Singleton - perfectly exemplify the Bloomian-theme. It is these
two concepts, polyphony and influence, which are the major
preoccupation in the Middle Phase; as, the works chosen
demonstrate. These are a novella, a novel, and a number of
short stories all of which have been unjustifiably neglected.
Chapter One, on The Aspern Papers, argues that Tina Bordereau,
far from being, the artless victim seen by many critics,
actually challenges and defeats the narrator by the very form
of her narrative. Her 'realist' discourse undermines his
language of 'romance', and shows up its internal unstability.
Chapter Two is an extensive study of the critical reception of
The Tragic Muse. The most common areas of critical attention
have been its contemporary topicality, its relation to previous
novels on similar themes, and the possible genealogy of Gabriel
Nash. Those have all missed the core of the work. - Chapter Three
demonstrates how polyphony and the anxiety of influence make
the novel what it really is. Influence arises from the
juxtaposition of, and the wrestling between, artistic ephebes
and their precursors (Nick and Nash,, Miriam and Madame Carre).
The dialogic quality defined by Bakhtin is crucial to the
proper, and even-handed, characterization of all, the conflicts
in the novel. And since most of James's tales in the eighties
and nineties -are about 'masters - and acolytes, the anxiety of
influence remains central. Chapter Four is a study of 'The
Author of Beltraffiol' and 'The Lesson of the Master'. Again the
characters' manipulations are a crucial focus in a way that
G6rard Genette's terminology helps to illuminate. The fact that
the ephebe is the author-thinker emphasizes the inextricability
of the Bakhtinian and the Bloomian in James. Just as
polyphony offers a different focus for explicating the poetics
of James's fiction; so the ephebal conflict provides the basis
for a fresh perception of James's own artistic struggle
