    Researching change and changing research in geographical education

    No full text
    A popular aphorism has it that the only constant in life is change and this is certainly true both spatially and temporally in geography and geographical education. However, it is also demonstrably true of research itself, whether applied to geographical education or any other aspect of life. Imre Lakatos (Lakatos, Feyerabend & Motterlini, 2000) thought of research in terms of programmes of investigation, and believed that such programmes could be compared according to their relative progression or degeneration, their coherence in mapping out future research, and their discovery of novel phenomena. However, it is often only in retrospect that we can judge the extent to which research in any area constitutes coherent programs of investigation, and one way in which this has been attempted has been to classify and evaluate published research studies. Since the mid-twentieth century, there have been a number of formal classifications of research in geographical education, the most recent being that by Foskett and Marsden (1998). As well as drawing together evidence of "programmes" emerging at the international level, these reviews are useful in consolidating the findings-to-date of research in specific aspects of geographical education while, from an historical perspective also reveal those aspects of the subject important to practitioners and researchers at particular periods, and show how the foci of research may change over time

    Martin Williams and the Armstrongian prophecy

    No full text
    This study examines the place of Louis Armstrong in the work of the jazz critic Martin Williams. By tallying Williams’s lasting interest in Armstrong from his teenage years to his last projects, the study shows that the critic’s focus on Armstrong’s rhythmic innovation depended on the argument that this particular aspect of Armstrong’s art was the major axis in the development of jazz history, an axis crucial to the emergence of other jazz musicians deemed most significant by Williams. The study further shows that Williams’s approach was most heavily influenced by the literary criticism of T. S. Eliot and the foundationalism of André Hodeir, and that Williams’s persistent interest in aesthetic lineage could be traced to the ambivalence he felt toward his own parentage.M.A.Includes bibliographical referencesby Michael Tom L
