Uber den im schottischen Hochland geborenen Schriftsteller und Journalisten Neil Munro (1863-1930) lagen bisher nur luckenhafte und teils widerspruchliche biographische Angaben vor. Es wurde daher versucht, das Leben und die Personlichkeit aus Tagebuchaufzeichnungen und Korrespondenz zu rekonstruieren. Bei der Untersuchung seines stark biographisch gepragten literarischen Werks ergeben sich im sprachlichen und thematischen Bereich wesentliche Unterschiede zu Scott und Stevenson, jenen Autoren, in deren Nachfolge er von Literaturkritikern oft pauschal eingeordnet wurde. Die Korrespondenz Munros wird zum weit uberwiegenden Teil erstmals einer breiteren Offentlichkeit zuganglich gemacht."

Law and Democracy in Neil MacCormick's Legal and Political Theory
Springer
2011
sidottu
This volume offers a collection of articles by leading legal and political theorists. Originally intended as a celebration of MacCormick’s work on the occasion of the completion of the four-volume series on Law, State and Practical Reason, it has turned into a homage and salute after MacCormick’s passing. Cast in MacCormick’s reflexive spirit, the book presents a critical reconstruction of the Scottish philosopher’s work, with the aim of revealing the connections between law and democracy in his writings and furthering his insights in each specific field.Neil MacCormick made outstanding contributions to the understanding of law and democracy under conditions of pluralism. His institutional theory of law has elucidated the close connection between the normative character of law as a means of social integration and legal social practices. This has produced a synthesis of the key insights of the legal and political theories of Kelsen, Hart, Alexy and Dworkin, and has broken new ground by undermining the ‘monolithic’ and ‘nation-state’ centered character of standard legal theories.

From Prairie to Mountain - Neil Astle's Modern Vision
Bruce Wrightsman
Culicidae Architectural Press
2026
pokkari
From Prairie to Mountain traces the career of architect Neil Astle, whose inventive modernism emerged from the landscapes and cultures of the Great Plains and Mountain West. The book presents Astle as a systems thinker who fused structural clarity, material honesty, and deep environmental sensitivity. Through houses, civic buildings, and institutional work, he developed a uniquely human-centered architectural language rooted in site and lived experience. His mature projects-ranging from monasteries to wildlife visitors centers-demonstrate a rare balance of technical rigor and poetic restraint. Ultimately, the book reveals an under-recognized master whose work exemplifies thoughtful, context-driven design. The author, Bruce Wrightsman, is a Tenured Professor with the McEwen School of Architecture at Laurentian University in Sudbury, Ontario. He is a licensed architect with over twenty-five years of experience in the United States. As an educator, Bruce has over a decade of experience serving as instructor on multiple award-winning academic Design/Build projects. Bruce's research is divided into two areas of investigation. In the first he examines the pedagogical and social efficacy of Design/Build curricula across North America. In the second he explores Alternative Building Strategies where the architectonics of building has resulted in an architectural pursuit of reducing the ecological footprint of a building through material selection, and alternative building approaches in relation to the site. Bruce has also been researching the work of architect Neil Astle, (1936-2000) and his innovative approach to design, sustainability, and craft.

Neil Young is an icon, plain and simple. The Words and Music of Neil Young follows the evolution of Young's musical work from the late 1960s to the present, with special focus on the enduring elements that have made his music successful. Neil Young cannot be simply labeled. He has recorded as a solo artist, as a member of a hard rock trio, and with numerous other musician configurations. He can move from the soft sounds of early 1970s acoustic folk to the distorted, fuzz guitar sound of Crazy Horse, while his compositions have responded to musical trends from punk rock to grunge, and to social issues like racism, the Vietnam War, and war in Iraq as well. Individual chapters cover Young's musical output album by album, and song by song--from his debut work with Buffalo Springfield, to his time with Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, to his solo work within various genres and for various causes (some political, but all artistic). In his conclusion, author Ken Bielen sums up Neil Young's accomplishments and places his work in the context of contemporary culture. A discography and bibliography round out the work.
