Youth engagement in the Kenyan potato value chain: Implications for food systems transformation
This study examines the potential for youth engagement in food systems transformation in Kenya, focusing on the potato value chain. Guided by Systems Theory and Social Change Theory, and using a mixed-methods approach, it addresses three questions: (i) What are the current patterns of youth participation across different nodes of the food system? (ii) What factors enable or constrain youth engagement in food systems innovation? (iii) How does you…
Why Brussels? Neruda’s ‘título absolutamente enigmático’
The primary purpose of this article is to propose a solution to longstanding literary mystery, namely, why Neruda’s disconcertingly enigmatic poem ‘Bruselas’ (from Tercera residencia [1947]) has a title which seems to bear little if any relation either to the city of Brussels itself or to its sometimes bewilderingly obscure content and imagery. The answer to this puzzle, I argue, lies deeply buried in Neruda’s biography—so deeply, however, that t…
Worldviews, values and perspectives towards the future of the livestock sector
The livestock sector is under increasing pressure to respond to numerous sustainability and health challenges related to the production and consumption of livestock products. However, political and market barriers and conflicting worldviews and values across the environmental, socio-economic and political domains have led to considerable sector inertia, and government inaction. The processes that lead to the formulation of perspectives in this sp…
Place identity and authenticity in minority language revitalisation: Scottish Gaelic in Glasgow
Aims and objectives: This paper first aims to examine how young Gaelic-English bilinguals in immersion education produce aspects of Gaelic phonology. We second consider the extent to which they acquire aspects of a traditional dialect. Third, we investigate how young new speakers outside of a traditional community negotiate place identity and authenticity. Methodology: Our methodology first consists of quantitative acoustic and auditory phonetic …

Why Enghien? A Note on Cortázar and Proust
The few studies which have examined the influence of Proust on the fiction of Julio Cortázar have, understandably, focused on his novels, and in particular Rayuela (1963). Yet when he relocated to Paris in 1951 the first literary works he produced were the cuentos that would eventually make up Las armas secretas (1959). Those stories were written in the wake of a careful re-reading of À la recherche du temps perdu, and in this essay I argue that …

Straight from The Horse's Mouth ? On the Origins of Cortázar's ‘El perseguidor’
This article purports to cast new light on the sources of inspiration for Julio Cortázar's pivotal story ‘El perseguidor’. In particular, it aims to demonstrate that Cortázar's depiction of the creative artist in the story was decisively shaped not only or even primarily by the life of jazz saxophonist Charlie Parker, but also by his reading of Joyce Cary’s novel The Horse's Mouth (1944), a whole series of often revealing references to which can …

The Representation of the Political in Selected Writings of Julio Cortázar
This profoundly flawed book is a protracted exercise in stating — and then repeating ad nauseam — the obvious (namely, that ‘politics had always been a point of reference in Cortazar’s fiction’ (p

Azuela's Los caciques: A Reassessment
This article attempts a detailed literary-critical reassessment of Mariano Azuela's novel Los caciques (1914/1917), focusing in particular on the figure of the intellectual, Rodríguez, and the novel's dramatic ending. It aims to show that, as a consequence of the unacknowledged subtlety of Azuela’s art, the former is not as unambiguously idealized a figure as commentators have generally assumed, and the latter may be considerably more pessimistic…

Various critics have claimed that elements of Borges’ story ‘El jardín de los senderos que se bifurcan’ (1941) uncannily foreshadow contemporary cosmological theories of the ‘mulitverse’, and in particular the ‘Many Worlds’ interpretation of quantum mechanics. This essay locates the source of Borges’ idea in the work of the English science-fiction writer Olaf Stapledon and, by linking this unacknowledged and previously unexplored intertext with o…

This article aims to reconsider the alleged sexism of Pablo Neruda's early poetry, and in particular Veinte poemas de amor y una canción desesperada (1924) from an historical perspective. The first part deals with Neruda's involvement with the anarchist journal Claridad, the radically libertarian ethos of which extended to both the issue of women's rights in contemporary Chilean society and the question of the sexual repression of women. The seco…
