[email protected] eSharp Special Issue: Spinning Scotland Jackie Kay’s Representation of ‘The Broons’: Scotland’s Happy Family Mª del Coral Calvo Maturana (Universidad de Granada) 1. Introduction This paper focuses on the contemporary Scottish poet Jackie Kay and the comic strip ‘The Broons’ by studying Jackie Kay’s representation of this family in contrast to its characterisation in the comic strip. 1 This study presents a brief introduction to Jackie Kay and ‘The Broons’ and pays attention to Kay’s referential portrayal of this Scottish family in five of her poems: ‘Maw Broon Visits a Therapist’ (2006a, p.46-47), ‘Paw Broon on the Starr Report’ (2006a, p.57), ‘The Broon’s Bairn’s Black’ (2006a, p.61), ‘There’s Trouble for Maw Broon’ (2005, p.13-14) and ‘Maw Broon goes for colonic irrigation’ (unpublished). 2 Each of the poems will be approached stylistically by using the advantages offered by corpus linguistics methodology; in particular, the program Wordsmith Tools 3.0. -

2003 NJPA Better Newspaper Contest Results
2003 Editorial Daily NJPA Better Newspaper Contest Results Overall Awards Journalist of the Year, Daily “Profiting From Public Service” Paul D'Ambrosio Asbury Park Press, Neptune Judges comments: A clear winner. A powerful expose. It is evident that a ton of tedious work went into this massive project. A provocative, infuriating look at greed and self-aggrandizement in NJ’s political underworld. Would have seen boxes splattered throughout the pages separately addressing how each different “sin” gave the politician and his family/business quality of life advantages the voter who put him in office doesn’t have, but is paying for, etc. i.e. several jobs adding up to bigger pensions and a cushy upcoming retirement. I’d title the boxes, “How does this make you feel?” Would like to have seen a chart of how all politicians cited in the series for their misdeeds made out in the election: did they win or lose? By how many votes? One was cited (Bennett’s race). Great job!

Expressions of Scottish Nationalism in the Twentieth-Century Regional Press
A DISUNITED KINGDOM: EXPRESSIONS OF SCOTTISH NATIONALISM IN THE TWENTIETH-CENTURY REGIONAL PRESS Marcus K. Harmes, Barbara Harmes and Meredith A. Harmes University of Southern Queensland INTRODUCTION The current constitutional arrangements of the United Kingdom have been in place for over three hundred years, in the case of Scotland since 1707, but the union of the constituent parts of the United Kingdom is still under exceptional pressure. While under the current arrangements many decisions remain reserved for the United Kingdom Parliament in Westminster, Scotland’s jurisprudence, its Church, and its education system were never united with their English counterparts and since 1999 Scotland has had devolved government. Nevertheless, throughout the twentieth century and now into the twenty-first, there have been successive demands for separation from England. Across Europe, State unions and federations are under similar pressure. In 2013 Jose Manuel Barroso, then President of the European Commission, had spoken of the coming of intensified federal unity and a fully-fledged European federation with fiscal unity. This comment now seems premature, as political and cultural ties have broken rather than intensified, including the Catalonian rejection of Spanish political unity. In the United Kingdom, a referendum on Scottish independence in 2014 failed, as had a 1979 devolution referendum. However, a 2016 referendum for the entire United Kingdom to leave the European Union narrowly succeeded (the ‘Brexit’), to be followed by further demands from Edinburgh for independence from England. Scottish independence, should it happen, would disrupt a union that has been on the Statute Book since 1707. This mirrors the tensions within federated European states but also the nationalist or devolutionary impulses in Wales and Cornwall. -
Scottsih Newspapers Have a Long Hisotry Fof Involvement With
68th IFLA Council and General Conference August 18-24, 2002 Code Number: 051-127-E Division Number: V Professional Group: Newspapers RT Joint Meeting with: - Meeting Number: 127 Simultaneous Interpretation: - Scottish Newspapers and Scottish National Identity in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries I.G.C. Hutchison University of Stirling Stirling, UK Abstract: Scotland is distinctive within the United Kingdom newspaper industry both because more people read papers and also because Scots overwhelmingly prefer to read home-produced organs. The London ‘national’ press titles have never managed to penetrate and dominate in Scotland to the preponderant extent that they have achieved in provincial England and Wales. This is true both of the market for daily and for Sunday papers. There is also a flourishing Scottish local weekly sector, with proportionately more titles than in England and a very healthy circulation total. Some of the reasons for this difference may be ascribed to the higher levels of education obtaining in Scotland. But the more influential factor is that Scotland has retained distinctive institutions, despite being part of Great Britain for almost exactly three hundred years. The state church, the education system and the law have not been assimilated to any significant amount with their counterparts south of the border. In the nineteenth century in particular, religious disputes in Scotland generated a huge amount of interest. Sport in Scotlaand, too, is emphatically not the same as in England, whether in terms of organisation or in relative popularity. Additionally, the menu of major political issues in Scotland often has been and is quite divergent from England – for instance, the land question and self-government. -
Chapter Five: a Gentleman from France
CHAPTER FIVE A Gentleman From France THE boom of naval gunnery rolled like thunder off the hills behind Vailima. Louis could feel each concussion as he sat writing in his study beside a locked stand of loaded rifles. With these the household was supposed to defend itself if attacked by natives during the civil war that had broken out in Samoa. It had been a gory business, with heads taken on both sides, but so far Louis’s extended family had escaped harm. He knew and loved many of the Samoans taking part, and despised the Colonial governors whose incompetence had led to this fiasco, yet he felt curiously detached from it all. The men on board HMS Curacoa, now engaged in shelling a small fort full of Samoan rebels, were his friends. Whenever any naval vessel put in at Apia, Louis liked to offer the men rest and recreation at Vailima, with a Samoan feast. In return he had been welcomed on board the Curacoa and taken out on naval manoeuvres to see how Victorian marine engineering and a well-drilled crew combined to create an invincible fighting machine, whose firepower was now directed at his other, Samoan friends cowering within the stockade, their small arms and war clubs useless against a British dreadnought. They, too, had been welcome guests at Vailima, where ‘Tusitala’ (the storyteller) was always willing to interrupt his writing to entertain native chiefs and their entourages. For them each Boom! now spelled pain and death, yet Louis could not wring his hands. He had done his best to avoid this small colonial tragedy, and destiny must take its course. -
The Media, Poverty and Public Opinion in the UK
The media, poverty and public opinion in the UK John H. McKendrick, Stephen Sinclair, September 2008 Anthea Irwin, Hugh O’Donnell, Gill Scott and Louise Dobbie How the media in the UK represents poverty and its effect on wider public understanding. The media fulfi ls an important role in shaping, amplifying and responding to public attitudes toward poverty. This study, part of the ‘Public Interest in Poverty Issues’ research programme, explores the role of national, local and community media in refl ecting and infl uencing public ideas of poverty and welfare. The research aimed to: • compare representations of poverty across different contemporary UK media; • identify the principal factors and considerations infl uencing those involved in producing media coverage of poverty; • understand how UK media representations of poverty relate to the public’s understanding of poverty, and any differences between the responses of different groups; • identify examples of effective practice in communicating poverty issues to the public and derive transferable lessons from these. The researchers analysed coverage of poverty in news reporting; looked at how the same poverty news story was reported across different news outlets; reviewed how poverty was presented across different genres of television programme; interviewed key informants involved in the production, placement and presentation of poverty coverage in the mass media and explored public interpretations and responses to media coverage of poverty through focus groups/ workshops. www.jrf.org.uk Contents -
