Robert Buchanan 1841-1901: an assessment of his career.
No full textPhDRobert Buchanan was widely regarded during his
lifetime as a poet of distinction, a capable and powerful
novelist, and a critic of some perception, yet his name is
now associated only with one regrettable episode, while
those of lesser men and women continue to be remembered for
work inferior to his. A man possessing large reserves of
energy, and pressed to write for a living at an early age,
he produced much work that deserves the oblivion it has
found; but his early verse, expressing his profound compassion
for the sufferings of the unfortunate in the simplest
language, some of his ballads, and not a little of his
later more vatic verse, is still worthy of study. As a
novelist his work is provocative and readable, but too
often descends to the level of the sentimental melodrama
which earned him, for a while, a very good income from the
stage. As a critic he was not profound, but was quick to
detect and praise expression of his own sympathy for humanity
that came to represent for him art's highest aspiration;
Dickens, Browning and Whitman were his heroes, and for the
last two he did sterling work in helping them to gain widespread
recognition. As a polemist he rushed into several
arenas, for some of which his talents were not especially
suited; but he publicly supported C. S. Parnell and Oscar
Wilde when few found the courage to do so. An interesting
man of impressive variety and undoubted talent has found an
undeserved neglect, and a full-scale critical biography of
Robert Buchanan is long overdue

Gender and generation in native title
No full textWhile gender and age are often noted as being important dimensions of Indigenous leadership and governance, they have rarely been examined in detail. This paper focuses specifically on the gender and age of directors on the boards of prescribed bodies corporate (PBCs), the corporations established to hold and/or manage native title rights and interests.
A predominant view persists of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women as excluded or marginalised in native title. Statistical data for the year 2011–12 reveals, however, that women’s representation on PBC boards is higher than that found in mainstream sectors, while the literature reveals a complex picture of cultural, historical, demographic, institutional and intercultural factors that influence men’s and women’s participation and power in the native title arena.
A key generational concern is the relatively low number of older people and the growing number of young people in the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population. Viewed in relation to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander population and projected changes, the pool of potential PBC directors looks likely to grow in coming years. This paper argues that, as an increasingly significant sector, PBCs have the potential to both contribute to and benefit from the strengthening of community capacity but this potential will not be realised until the constraints on the capacity of PBCs to meet their statutory obligations and pursue native title holder aspirations are addressed.

BUCHANAN Y EL DISEÑO: (Buchanan para diseñadores)
No full textThis book aims to unravel the work of one of the most important thinkers in the design disciplines due to the impact he has had on the production of knowledge, professional practice and design education. This is a work of great value for students and academics, as it will allow them to approach Richard Buchanan\u27s thought, recognize the value of his contributions, discuss them, question them and, if possible, even continue them. Despite being one of the most important, it is also little known among students, since in order to enter into his thought there is first the language barrier, since the great majority of the texts and video conferences that he has given in universities around the world are in English and are not subtitled. The second obstacle for those who do know the language, perhaps, is the structure of his texts, since in them he addresses problems of the design disciplines that are already complex. Thus, although the author is not incomprehensible, perhaps he does require an investment of time and effort, which are two things that are generally not available when one is inserted in the university dynamic, since academic-administrative tasks tend to consume it. With the objective of collaborating in the understanding and discussion of Buchanan\u27s ideas and bringing them closer to the entire academic community, with students as a priority, the authors who participated in this collective effort took on the task of identifying guiding lines in Buchanan\u27s thought, through his texts and conferences.
Buchanan and Design is a book that presents the results of researchers located in different universities in the country, members of the Design Researchers Network. This work aims to identify the perspectives that have had the greatest impact on the understanding of design disciplines, such as graphic design, industrial design, fashion design, interior design, interaction design, service design, among others. The findings are of great academic value because they allow, first, to present a key author in the understanding of design to a new audience, perhaps because the language did not allow an in-depth approach; second, to recognize central ideas of the author that have had a significant impact in different areas of design; third, to extend his ideas to new fields and current practices to understand the design disciplines. These findings were made possible thanks to the collective review of the author\u27s publications, interviews and conferences that have been saved on the Internet.El presente libro tiene como objetivo desentrañar el trabajo de uno de los pensadores más importantes para las disciplinas del diseño por el impacto que ha tenido en la producción del conocimiento, en la práctica profesional y en la educación del diseño. Éste es un trabajo de gran valor para estudiantes y académicos, pues les permitirá acercarse al pensamiento de Richard Buchanan, reconocer el valor de sus aportes, discutirlos, cuestionarlos y si es posible hasta continuarlos. A pesar de ser de los más importantes, también es poco conocido entre estudiantes, puesto que para entrar en su pensamiento existe primero la barrera del lenguaje, ya que la gran mayoría de los textos y conferencias en video que ha impartido en universidades de todo el mundo, se encuentran en inglés y no están subtituladas. El segundo obstáculo para los que sí conocen el lenguaje, quizá sea el entramado de sus textos, puesto que en ellos aborda problemas de las disciplinas del diseño ya de por sí complejas. Así, aunque el autor no es incomprensible, quizá sí requiere invertir tiempo y esfuerzo, que son dos cosas con las que generalmente no se cuenta cuando se está inserto en la dinámica universitaria, puesto que las labores académico-administrativas suelen consumirlo. Con el objetivo de colaborar en la comprensión y discusión de las ideas de Buchanan y acercarlas a toda la comunidad académica teniendo como prioridad a los estudiantes, los autores que participamos en este esfuerzo colectivo nos dimos a la tarea de identificar líneas guía en el pensamiento de Buchanan, a través de sus textos y conferencias.
Buchanan y el diseño es un libro que presenta los resultados de investigadores ubicados en diferentes universidades del país, miembros de la Red de Investigadores en Diseño. Esta obra pretende identificar las perspectivas que han tenido mayor impacto en la comprensión de las disciplinas del diseño, tales como diseño gráfico, diseño industrial, diseño de moda, diseño de interiores, diseño de interacción, diseño de servicios, entre otras. Los hallazgos son de gran valor académico pues permiten, primero, presentar un autor medular en la comprensión del diseño a un público nuevo, quizá porque el idioma no permitía un acercamiento a profundidad; segundo, reconocer ideas centrales del autor que han tenido un impacto significativo en diferentes áreas del diseño; tercero, extender sus ideas a nuevos campos y prácticas actuales para comprender las disciplinas del diseño. Dichos hallazgos se dieron gracias a la revisión colectiva de publicaciones del autor, entrevistas y conferencias que han quedado guardadas en la red
Buchanan Hollow Nut Company Rebranding and Research
No full textA marketing plan was designed for Buchanan Hollow Nut Company (BHNC) in the summer of 2016 to redesign the company brand. Additionally, the author conducted research to determine if the implementation of bar codes and scanning would improve internal efficiency.
Utilizing the company’s owner, and famous artist, Sharleen Robson, the author created a tasteful watercolor design to update the logo for BHNC. Furthermore, by contacting the current packaging company, Legend Packaging Group, the author received estimated costs for adding a bar code to each product.
