  • Scotland's Global Empire Internals.Indd
    1 Genesis of an empire ‘We look to Scotland for all our ideas of civilisation’ — Voltaire he Scottish Empire is, of course, illusory but the giants who spread their infl uence Tacross the globe off er tangible evidence that, had they had the mind to make it so, the saltire of St Andrew or the more fl amboyant lion rampant might have fl own across much of the civilised world and the atlases could have had a very diff erent hue. Th is, however, is not an empire of colonisation that diminishes or enslaves those whom it embraces. It involves neither the greed nor the ruthlessness so oft en inherent in empire-building. It is without condescension: an empire that breaks down barriers rather than creating ownership and, it can be claimed, enhances civilisation. Where would you plant the fl ag to claim sovereignty of ideas and philosophies? Th is is not a recital of the adventures of conquering heroes, although some are included. Th e empire I have in mind is more an outreach of ideas, the story of human endeavour in its many forms, pushing at the boundaries of the imagination and stretching the accepted order. It sweeps from the foothills of press freedom to the high plains of moral philosophy; from the oceans of ingenuity to the great rivers of physical courage; from the borderlands where determination meets initiative to the mighty mountain ranges of originality. It encompasses everything from the spirit of pioneering to the mystical qualities of leadership. It’s luckily not dependent on a seat of power and nor is it aff ected by the bruising arguments about Scotland’s place within the UK or as an independent state.

  • In Duchamp's Shadow : Dadaist in the City of Machines
    d IN DUCHAMP’S SHADOW: Dadaist in the City of Machines John Cohassey In Detroit’s Scarab Club, a charming brick 1920s arts and crafts structure is Marcel Duchamp’s signature—thirteen small cryptic letters on a wooden ceiling beam. This talismanic auto­ graph stirred my interest in finding out why and when Duchamp added his name to the collection of signatures in the club’s lounge. I was aware that Duchamp came to Detroit in November 1961 to speak at the Detroit Institute of Arts and re­ ceive an honorary degree from Wayne State University. This being the only information about Duchamp having visited De­ troit of which I knew, I set out to find a link between the Scarab Club signature and his coming to Detroit in 1961. We may never know why Duchamp—who never spoke fondly of history, especially its art movements and “isms” and rejected all facets of aesthetic commercialism—accepted an honorary degree from an urban university so far from the powerful centers of the art world. But for an artist fascinated by the machine and mechanical drawings, Detroit may have been a fitting place for such an honor. At the time of Duchamp’s visit, the seventy­four­year­old artist had emerged from a relatively isolated life in New York City to appear on television and at museum and gallery events. After nearly a half century of bachelorhood (he was married briefly in 1927), Duchamp married again in 1955 and became an American citizen. Unlike many other influential artists, he 11 avoided a self­destructive path.

  • Sydney Institute of Agriculture Georgika
    Sydney Institute of Agriculture Georgika Edition 3, December 2020 Georgika - an online newsletter for those interested in academic aspects of the Ag sector From the Director Alex McBratney Please enjoy the latest edition of Georgika where we highlight our research work in agriculture, our people and our ongoing links to our alumni and collaborators and stakeholders in the agricultural sector. This has been an unparalleled year in many ways – a pandemic and record yields on our farms. Something to remember forever. Some of us think the sooner we get to a new one the better. I’d like to thank everyone for all their diligent hard work over such a difficult year – despite the challenges I believe we are in a stronger position institutionally and nationally in relation to our agricultural effort, commitment, and standing than we were at the beginning of the year. So, I wish you a wonderful break. Take it – enjoy it. Wishing you a very happy and successful 2021 – it’s got to be better than this one. Distant links to Sydney I have been to loads of agriculture conferences around the world and we are often reminded of the phenomenal pioneering crop-breeding work of the Iowan, Norman Borlaug and his many colleagues and co-workers that led to his being awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1970. Often this is stated as the first, and the only, Nobel prize in agriculture. In the nineteen twenties and thirties John Boyd Orr was Director of the Rowett Research Institute, famous for its work on animal nutrition.
