‘The Tragedy of a Small Nation’
This article examines the pro‐Montenegrin political campaigns of Alexander Devine, a schoolmaster and journalist who became Montenegro's leading British advocate following its incorporation into the Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes after the First World War. Through Devine's prolific pamphlets, correspondence and press interventions between 1918 and 1924, the article traces how impassioned amateur advocacy – the dominant mode of British enga…
The insidious poisons of plutocracy and the distorted democracy of parliaments”
With views ranging from neo-Jacobitism to fascism, Herbert Vivian was one of the most controversial political figures in late nineteenth and early twentieth century Britain. He was also a prolific travel writer, authoring seven books between 1897 and 1936. This article considers Vivian’s travel narratives about Serbia, Servia: The Poor Man’s Paradise (1897) and The Servian Tragedy (1904), and argues that his legitimist disenchantment with the cou…
Valorising Transnational Heritage Through Cultural Routes—European Travels in Special Collections of Adriatic Libraries

The purpose of the research, conducted in the framework of the course Travel Writing and Cultural Routes, was to identify collections that contain travel writing material related to the broader…
Representing Albania in the Travel Writing and Political Commentary of Edith Durham and Aubrey Herbert during the Albanian Path to Independence, c. 1904–1923
Recent imagological scholarship about the Balkans has revised the Balkanism thesis by examining the sympathetic lens through which British liberals viewed the peninsula's Christian and Slavic nationalities following the 1903 establishment of the Balkan Committee. Revisionist historiography has, however, overlooked how non-Christian and non-Slavic communities were represented in Britain beyond overgeneralized orientalist stereotypes of ‘the villai…
Reconsidering Perceptions of the Balkan Wars (1912-3) in British War Correspondence
Historiography about external representations of southeastern Europe places significance on the Balkan Wars (1912-3) in cementing negative stereotypes of the region. Despite this, there have been few studies dealing specifically with British representations of these conflicts. This article scrutinises British journalistic correspondence from the wars, sources neglected by previous scholarship in favour of overtly literary depictions of the region…
An Oriental Holiday’
This article challenges imagological historiography that contends Bosnia-Herzegovina represented a no-go zone for British tourists before the First World War because of its reputation for cultural backwardness and political instability. Through an analysis of published travelogues, travel guides, and travel journalism, as well as their reception in Britain, it places the evolution of images of Bosnia-Herzegovina in dialogue with British anxieties…
Gardens with Kerb Appeal - A Framework to Understand the Relationship between Britain in Bloom Gardeners and Their Front Gardens
Britain in Bloom is a UK national campaign to help people improve their local environment through gardening, a popular and accessible pastime. This research presents a framework to understand the relationships between gardeners and their front gardens (yards). Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis of focus group data with 20 Britain in Bloom gardeners in Greater London explores why people garden in front gardens, how social cohesion may emerge…
“It made me feel brighter in myself”- The health and well-being impacts of a residential front garden horticultural intervention
Why garden? – Attitudes and the perceived health benefits of home gardening
Domestic (home) gardens provide opportunities for psychological and physical health benefits, yet these environments have received less attention in terms of their therapeutic value compared to other urban green spaces. This is despite their ubiquity and the popularity of gardening as a pastime. This research explored why residents engaged with gardening and the extent to which they recognised any health benefits from the activity. A questionnair…
Let Nature Be Thy Medicine
Prescribing nature-based health interventions (green prescribing)-such as therapeutic horticulture or conservation activities-is an emerging transdisciplinary strategy focussed on reducing noncommunicable diseases. However, little is known about the practice of, and socioecological constraints/opportunities associated with, green prescribing in the UK. Furthermore, the distribution of green prescribing has yet to be comprehensively mapped. In thi…
The impact of bivalent HPV vaccine on cervical intraepithelial neoplasia by deprivation in Scotland
BACKGROUND: Cervical cancer disproportionately affects women from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. A human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccination programme was introduced in Scotland in 2008 with uptake being lower and inequitable in a catch-up cohort run for the first three years of the programme compared with the routine programme. The socioeconomic differences in vaccine uptake have the potential to further increase the inequality gap in regards to …

Sentence to Ten Cents
In cross-cultural interaction in medical settings, there is great potential for miscommunication. This potential is increased when the language proficiency of one of the interactants is low. In the data presented here of such interaction, however, the instances of miscommunication are quickly resolved and communication proceeds. Three sources of communicative success are suggested. Most important is the ability of both parties to draw contextuall…
