‘We haven’t got here just on our own. It’s a conversation’. Jo Littler interviews Carol Tulloch
Get PDFCarol Tulloch is an author, curator, maker and academic, and Professor of Dress, Diaspora and Transnationalism at the University of the Arts in London. She grew up in Doncaster in the North of England and studied BA Fashion and Textile Design at Ravensbourne College Design and Communication, and MA History of Design at the Royal College of Art and Victoria and Albert Museum. She is known for her innovative work on heritage, personal archives, style narratives and auto/biography, and her books include Black Style (2004) and The Birth of Cool: Style Narratives of the African Diaspora (2016). She has curated and co-curated a wide range of exhibitions, including Grow Up! Advice and the Teenage Girl (The Women’s Library, 2002); The March of the Women: Suffragettes and the State (National Archives, 2003); Picture This: Representations of Black People in Product Promotion (Archives and Museum of Black Heritage, 2002); Black British Style (V&A, 2004); and Rock Against Racism (Autograph, 2015). In this interview, conducted online in summer 2021, she talks to Jo Littler about her work and the contexts and cultures it emerged out of
Walter Scott, the Two Sicilies, and Events ‘of Recent Date’
Get PDFTraces Walter Scott\u27s interest in Sicily and Naples through his earlier writing up to his travels to both in 1831-1832, discusses his treatment of Neapolitan history and politics in essays in 1816 and 1829, especially his accounts of Joachim Murat (1767-1815), king of Naples from 1808-1815, and in Masaniello, leader of the popular rising in 1647-48, and suggests how these interests connect to Scott\u27s unfinished short novel Bizarro, written in 1832 but first published in 2008, so unavailable to earlier Scott scholars

Picoline and pyridine functionalised chelate N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of nickel: synthesis and structural studies
No full textThe first pyridine and picoline functionalised N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of nickel are described in this paper. The nature of the isolated complexes is critically dependent on the bite angle and the substituents of the ligand used and the synthetic method for the introduction of the ligand on the metal. From NiBr2 (DME), DME=1,2-dimethoxyethane, by transmetallation with one equivalent of Ag(CN)2]Br2 (3). Transmetallation with Ag(C-N)Cl, (C-N) = [3-(2,6-Pr-2(i) C6H3)1[1-(2-pyridyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] afforded the bimetallic species [(C-N)(2)Ni(mu-Br)(2) NiBr2] (4), containing one octahedral and one tetrahedral nickel centre. Finally, from the reaction of NiBr2 (DME) with free (C-N*), (C-N*) = 3-(2,6-(Pr2C6H3)-C-i)-1-[2-(3-picolyl)]-imidazol-2-ylidene, good yields of Ni(C-N*)Br-2, (6) were obtained. Attempts to alkylate (1) were not successful
Functionalised and chelate heterocyclic carbene complexes of palladium; synthesis and structural studies
No full textA series of picolyl-functionalised, [(CN) ligands act as chelates, while the methoxymethyl-and diethylcarbamoylmethyl-functions in 10, 11 and 12, respectively, are dangling. Derivatives of 5a in which the pyridine ring is substituted with electron withdrawing or bulky substituents show only minor variation of the pyridine-palladium distances
Chelating and 'pincer' dicarbene complexes of palladium; synthesis and structural studies
No full textA series of 'pincer' 2,6-pyridyl dicarbene complexes of the type [(C-N-C) PdX](+), 4a, 4b, 2,6-lutidinyl dicarbene complexes of the type [((CNC)-N-boolean AND-C-boolean AND) PdX](+), 4c, 4d, 1,3-xylyl dicarbene complexes of the type [((CCC)-C-boolean AND-C-boolean AND) PdX], 5a, 5b, 5c and 1,2-xylyl dicarbene complexes [(CC) PdX2], 8, where carbene is 3-arylimidazol-2-ylidene, aryl = mesityl, 2,6-Pr-2(i) C6H3, X = Br or Cl, have been prepared by (i) transmetallation from the corresponding silver complexes, i. e. [(C-N-C) Ag-2 Cl-2], [((CNC)-N-boolean AND-C-boolean AND) Ag2Cl2] and [(CC) Ag2Cl2] to palladium, (ii) substitution of cod in (cod) PdX2 by the 'pincer' (C-N-C) (iii) palladation of bis-imidazolium salts [C(H)C-boolean AND(H)C-boolean AND(H)] in the presence of base. The crystal structures show that the ligands act as chelates in 4-5, while in 8 as both chelate and bridging

Hard and soft news: A review of concepts, operationalizations and key findings
Get PDFOver 30 years, a large body of research on what is often called ‘hard’ and ‘soft news’ has accumulated in communication studies. However, there is no consensus about what hard and soft news exactly is, or how it should be defined or measured. Moreover, the concept has not been clearly differentiated from or systematically related to concepts addressing very similar phenomena – tabloidization and ‘infotainment’. Consequently, the results of various studies are hard to compare and different scientific discourses on related issues remain unconnected. Against this backdrop, this article offers a conceptual analysis of the concept based on studies in English and other languages. We identify key dimensions of the concept and make suggestions for a standardized definition and multi-dimensional measurement of harder and softer news. In doing so, we propose to distinguish thematic, focus and style features as basic dimensions that – in their combination – make up harder and softer types of news
