First, it investigates the impact of the relatively modern schemes for environmental protection regulation upon the more venerable regime of planning control under the Town and Country planning legislation. At its simplest, proposals for the development of land will usually involve numerous environmental policy considerations. There are issues here concerning demarcation, in particular as to how far environmental considerations should be relevant to the planning process.

The Guest from the Future
ISBN: 9781857541328 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. A 70-year-old friend told Jon Stallworthy of her flight from war-torn Poland, carrying in her bedding-roll a coverlet she'd been embroidering for her fiance and herself. The poet was struck by the story's inverse relationship with that of the "Lady of Shalott". Where Tennyson's artist in her tower, forced to choose between the world and its "shadows" in her mirror, opts for the world and is destroyed, the peasant engages with the world and is sustained, art reflecting the engagement. The story Stallworthy traces over the outline of the old illustrates what Heaney calls poetry's power of...

The Guest from the Future
ISBN: 9780393316933 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. An old friend told Jon Stallworthy of her flight from war-torn Poland, carrying in her bedding-roll a coverlet she was embroidering for her fiance and herself. Her story bears a curious inverse relationship with that of the 'Lady of Shalott.' Tennysons's patrician artist in her tower, forced to choose between the world and its 'shadows' in her mirror, opts for the world and is destroyed; the peasant artist engages with the world and is sustained by an art that reflects that engagement. The modern story Stallworthy traces over the ghostly outline of the old points a parable about one function...
