Homelessness is increasing globally. “Hidden homelessness,” a term used to define homelessness in geographically remote areas, is also increasing, but existing research lacks the perceptions and existential insight of homelessness in rural communities. This study aims to highlight the lived experiences of homelessness in Perth & Kinross, a unique Scottish local authority split almost equally into rural and urban areas. Twenty-two people experienc…
Towards a Phenomenology of Shakespeare’s Sky
This paper begins with a phenomenological analysis of the sky as understood by early modern beholders via its synonyms: ‘sky’, ‘welkin’, ‘element’, ‘vault’, ‘heavens’, and ‘firmament’. These words fall into roughly two categories. The first group conveys the experiences of the sky through primary perceptions of seeing, sensing or breathing. To recall the distinction between ‘apprehension’ and ‘comprehension’ in Midsummer Night’s Dream, they appre…
Furtive majesty in John Ford’s Perkin Warbeck
In Ford’s Perkin Warbeck, a charismatic and virtuous pretender is opposed an uncharismatic and unvirtuous monarch, Henry VII. To Perkin, his title is as good as Henry’s. Thus he patterns his invasion of England on that of Henry’s own previous invasion to rid England of Richard III – a tyrant whom Henry is now imagined as resembling. In Bacon’s History of Henry VII, however, Henry’s Machiavellianism is taken to be acceptable in regard of its effec…
The Cambridge Guide to the Worlds of Shakespeare
The Cambridge Guide to the Worlds of Shakespeare aims to replicate the expansive reach of Shakespeare's global reputation. In pursuit of that vision, this work is transhistorical, international and interdisciplinary. Volume 1, Shakespeare's World, 1500–1660, includes a comprehensive survey of the world in which Shakespeare and his contemporaries lived, while Volume 2, The World's Shakespeare, 1660–Present, examines what the world has made of Shak…
Major ingredients of fidelity
Despite the critical role of fidelity and the proliferation of intervention manuals and related measures, no comprehensive, structured guide exists, resulting in definitional confusion, varying interpretations of what constitutes core components, and inconsistent application of methods to ensure fidelity. To improve integration of fidelity criteria into intervention research, this review paper focuses on three aims: 1) to identify, define, and op…
Shakespeare on the stages of Asia
While the man in the street is unperturbed at the thought of Shakespeare being performed some 400 years after his death, he is astonished to hear that Shakespeare is performed in Asia (never mind 400 years after his death). Commonality of language, culture, history, country and 'race' conspire to naturalise Shakespeare's otherwise highly 'unnatural' cultural longevity. By the same token, the sheer discontinuity and remoteness represented by 'Asia…
Shakespeare and the geography of difference
Interviewed by Nicholas Zurbrugg
Shakespeare's Virginian Masque
Variations in Drawings of ‘A Person’ and ‘Myself’ by Hearing‐impaired and Normal Children
S ummary . Study of drawings of ‘a person’ and ‘myself’ by hearing‐impaired children suggested the existence of consistent patterns of qualitative difference between the two. A simple method of quantitative comparison was devised and comparisons made with drawings by a control group of normally hearing children. Analysis of results showed significant variations between the hearing‐impaired and normal groups in terms of direction and degree of per…
