‘Wayfarers
This paper discusses an inquiry-based school-university partnership project conducted by history and music education specialists in Scotland. The project was music-led with history underpinning it, namely the musical migration of Scots and Irish to the Eastern United States. From the 18th century onwards thousands of Scots and Irish moved to Appalachia – ‘the wayfarers’ in our title. Their heritage now features in the Scottish school curriculum. …
John Duns Scotus, Franciscan theologian philosopher, a thinker for our times
An overview of the life and intellectual legacy of the Franciscan theologian-philosopher John Duns Scotus (died 1308), sometimes called Scotland's greatest philosopher, draws on the most recent historical scholarship and treatments of his thought. From his origins in Duns, Scotland, to his influential tenure in Paris and death in Cologne, Scotus's life is considered alongside his important doctrines: the univocity of being, which reshapes metaphy…

Conversations with Tim Ingold
Conversations with Tim Ingold offers a comprehensive and accessible introduction to the work of Tim Ingold, one of the leading anthropologists of our time. Presented as a series of interviews conducted by three anthropologists from the University of Glasgow over a period of two years, the book explores Ingold's key contributions to anthropology and other disciplines.
Kenneth White, Dwelling and Nomadism
In his The Wanderer and his Charts (2004) Kenneth White offers two crucial texts that serve at once to 'educate and to initiate' (Bissell 2005: 37) his readers into a project a lifetime in the making: in one of these texts he introduces us to 'The Nomadic Intellect' while the in the other he provides 'An Outline of Geopoetics'.The term 'geopoetics' -which is not to be confused with 'geopolitics' -started to enter into White's 'texts and talks at …
Beyond virtue and vice
Education is astonishingly simple. We have all been through it, whether as children or later in life—indeed, many of us are still going through it in some form or other; we all know what works; and we are all committed to realising its individual and social potential. Such a view of the matter might dispense with the need for philosophy of education altogether as the problems of education are seen as little more than puzzles to be solved. We know…
Authority
This paper, while not presenting a general discussion of authority in education, attempts to uncover some of the anomalies, paradoxes and tensions in the concept. It will argue for a revaluation of authority as an educational virtue, as a form of participatory guidance that is an aid to growth. The paper intends to help provoke continued debate over our perceived educational virtues and vices. I argue that virtuous authority is authority exercise…
Heidegger, Heterotopic Dwelling and Prehistoric Art
This paper begins to develop an interpretation of European cave art based on Martin Heidegger's account of artistic production and 'dwelling' so as to indicate a potentially rich area for future research. The paper will also draw on Foucault's account of heterotopic space and will engage with one of the key researchers on the archaeology of cave art, Randall White. The role of a work of art for Heidegger is to hold open a world. Art enables a dec…
