This is the author’s final accepted version. There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/201608/ Deposited on: 24 October 2019 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Tom Bartlett Time, the deer, is in the wood: Chronotopic identities, trajectories of texts and community self-management Abstract: This paper opens with a problematisation of the notion of real-time in discourse analysis – dissected, as it is, as if time unfolded in a linear and regular procession at the speed of speech. To illustrate this point, the author combines Hasan’s concept of “relevant context” with Bakhtin’s notion of the chronotope to provide an analysis of Sorley MacLean’s poem Hallaig, with its deep-rootedness in space and its dissolution of time. The remainder of the paper is dedicated to following the poem’s metamorphoses and trajectory as it intertwines with Bartlett’s own life and family history, creating a layered simultaneity of meanings orienting to multiple semio-historic centres. In this way the author (pers. comm.) “sets out to illustrate in theory, text analysis and (self-)history the trajectories taken by texts as they cross through time and space; their interconnectedness

  • Amazon's Antitrust Paradox
    LINA M. KHAN Amazon’s Antitrust Paradox abstract. Amazon is the titan of twenty-first century commerce. In addition to being a re- tailer, it is now a marketing platform, a delivery and logistics network, a payment service, a credit lender, an auction house, a major book publisher, a producer of television and films, a fashion designer, a hardware manufacturer, and a leading host of cloud server space. Although Amazon has clocked staggering growth, it generates meager profits, choosing to price below-cost and ex- pand widely instead. Through this strategy, the company has positioned itself at the center of e- commerce and now serves as essential infrastructure for a host of other businesses that depend upon it. Elements of the firm’s structure and conduct pose anticompetitive concerns—yet it has escaped antitrust scrutiny. This Note argues that the current framework in antitrust—specifically its pegging competi- tion to “consumer welfare,” defined as short-term price effects—is unequipped to capture the ar- chitecture of market power in the modern economy. We cannot cognize the potential harms to competition posed by Amazon’s dominance if we measure competition primarily through price and output. Specifically, current doctrine underappreciates the risk of predatory pricing and how integration across distinct business lines may prove anticompetitive. These concerns are height- ened in the context of online platforms for two reasons. First, the economics of platform markets create incentives for a company to pursue growth over profits, a strategy that investors have re- warded. Under these conditions, predatory pricing becomes highly rational—even as existing doctrine treats it as irrational and therefore implausible.

PREFACE Since ever dwellers on the Continent were first able to navigate the ocean, the isles of Great Britain and Ireland must have been objects which excited their supreme interest. To this we owe in part the com- ing of our own early ancestors to these isles. But while we have histories which inform us of the several historic invasions, they all seem to me to belittle far too much the influence of the Norse Invasions in particular. This error I would fain correct, so far as regards Celtic Scotland.

Item downloaded http://hdl.handle.net/10468/1413 from Downloaded on 2021-09-27T10:44:04Z A Tipperary emigrant's manuscript Pádraig Ó Macháin The manuscript described here, National Library of Ireland MS G 1417, is a relic of a significant period of emigration from Ireland to Québec in the period after the Napoleonic Wars, and in the 1820s in particular. This first wave of emigration is regarded as a formative one for the city of Québec and its environs, and is to be distinguished from the second and catastrophic wave that occurred during and after the years of the Great Famine. In the words of the late Marianna O'Gallagher, historian of the Irish in Québec City: ‘it was the immigrants from the 1820s and earlier, and not those of the late 1840s, who founded the Québec community’.1 At the time, and for a long time afterwards, emigration to Québec and New Brunswick was encouraged by the fact that, due mainly to the timber trade, these were among the cheapest passages of all destinations in North America.2 For this reason, the region was used by many as a gateway to the United States.3 From the archives of the city and province – a significant and largely untapped source for Irish studies – and from the history of the manuscript described here, it is also clear that a great many Irish stayed and made their homes in Québec City and in the surrounding territories.

  • Lachlan Campbell's Letters to Edward Lhwyd, 1704–7
    1 Published in Scottish Gaelic Studies 29 (2013), 244–81 (discussion, 244–52; letters, 253–67; references, 267–9; notes, 270–81). In this file footnotes are used rather than embedded notes and endnotes. Original page-numbers in square brackets. LACHLAN CAMPBELL’S LETTERS TO EDWARD LHWYD, 1704–7 Compiling the first Irish–English dictionary, Edward Lhwyd (1659/60– 1709) was conscious that he needed advice from people who could read and write Irish as well as speak the language. He made inquiries in both Ireland and Scotland, and he tells us that he submitted the dictionary in unbound sheets to three such readers in Ireland and three in Scotland. Of those one in each country responded with comments.1 His adviser in Ireland was the learned antiquary Roderick O’Flaherty (1629–1716), of Park, in Cois Fhairrge, and Lhwyd’s papers include a dozen folio sheets, forty-eight printed pages of the dictionary, marked up with comments by O’Flaherty.2 In Scotland the person who responded with advice on Scottish Gaelic was Lachlan Campbell, a young Presbyterian minister from Campbeltown, whose five surviving letters to Lhwyd are printed here. Campbell had studied in Glasgow, where he was acquainted with Lhwyd’s friend Robert Wodrow (1679–1734), named in the first letter. From the age of twenty-one * The whole of Edward Lhwyd’s surviving correspondence has been included, for the most part with images of the original letters, in the database Early Modern Letters Online hosted by the Bodleian Library (emlo.bodleian.ox.ac.uk), which holds some 1700 in-letters from his papers, left in the Ashmolean Museum at his death, some of which had been removed but were recovered from two sources by a later keeper of the museum.

  • Is There Any Correlation Between the Etymology of Manx Family Names and Their Male Line Genetic Origins? Introduction Background
    Is there any correlation between the etymology of Manx family names and their male line genetic origins? Introduction When the Manx Y-DNA study1 was initiated in 2010 three main objectives were set:- • Use Y-DNA testing to identify the earlier genetic origins of the ca 135 indigenous Manx male line families and any genetic connections between them. • To identify the timescales in which the early populations of the Isle of Man arrived on the Island. • To see if there is any connection between the etymology2 of the surviving indigenous Manx family names and their male line genetic origins. The first two of these objectives have been largely met3 and the analysis contained within this paper now addresses the third and final objective by attempting to establish whether there is any visible correlation between the perceived (documented) origin of a Manx family name and the real genetic origins of the male family line bearing that name as identified within the Manx Y-DNA Study. Background Those people who claim Manx ancestry take great pride in their history and origins. The closeness of a stable population living on a small Island together has meant over the centuries that different families have mingled closely with each other and hence possess a consciousness and knowledge of the history of their own particular family on the Island, to a degree not usually seen, for example, in larger and wider communities as in England and elsewhere. The succession of incoming settlers and invaders over the centuries to the Isle of Man has left an indelible legacy on the Island in terms of the inherited customs, place and family names, genetics and physical traces etc.
