The SDG14 targets cover more than 70 per cent of the planet, including the coastal zone, where a range of forest resources are located. In this chapter we investigate the potential negative consequences of SDG14 on forest resources, using the example... Read More about SDG 14: Life Below Water - Impacts On Mangroves.

Hugh MacDiarmid and the Scottish Literary Revival (2023)
Book Chapter
Lyall, S. (2024). Hugh MacDiarmid and the Scottish Literary Revival. In G. Carruthers (Ed.), The Wiley-Blackwell Companion to Scottish Literature (127-139). Wiley-Blackwell

The Scottish literary renaissance is a paradox. Imagining Scottish history as a series of catastrophes – Reformation, Union, Enlightenment, industrialisation – the renaissance sought rebirth in the nation's cultural past. Critics usually locate such... Read More about Hugh MacDiarmid and the Scottish Literary Revival.
