In this article, I study the use of Norway as a poetic symbol in Spanish Golden Age poetry. First, exploring the earliest mentions and descriptions of the North in Spanish, I present the origin of Norway’s perception as a marvellous and extraordinary geography. Then, I try to trace and explain how the original symbolic motif (related to the topical characteristics: cold, darkness, falcons), was displaced to more complex poetic uses. In special in the works of Luis de Góngora and Francisco de Quevedo.

Oba mewa, Igbamewa literarily meaning "ten kings, ten different epochs" is a common proverb among the Yoruba people of southwestern Nigeria where Lagos State is geographically and ethnically subsumed. The proverb connotatively translates to the fact that the tenure of an incumbent ruler or office holder would be defined by its philosophy, approaches, style, achievements, pitfalls, and challenges. It is also used to reflect the historical, sociological, political, and socioeconomic dynamics that predominate the period a king or an office holder reigned. In the light of the import of this proverb, this paper presents the biographical sketch of the earthly sojourn of Oba Adeyinka Oyekan II, one of the twentieth century prominent monarchs of Lagos whose reign has been attributed as one of the longest in the history of Lagos spanning about forty decades. Specifically, the biography examines his emergence on the throne and the contributions of the reign towards the socioeconomic and political transformation of Lagos and its environs. The historical approaches to data collection (via extant literature and newspaper article especially) and interpretation are adopted.

“Ocupa Rua”This article proposes a reflection based on the concept of the five skins created by the Austrian architect and artist Friedensreich Hundertwasser, having as its object the pilot project “Ocupa Rua”, carried out in São Paulo, on new uses of an urban center and the layers of perception and experience that this project can provide. It includes walks, readings and the use of mobile devices by users/ walkers as a form of communication and social belonging, generating a lively communicational dynamic. The presence of the user who seems to collaborate with the creation of new reading layers for the city permeates this text. It is believed that it goes beyond the commercial purpose and, by containing concepts of revitalization as a source of possibilities for reusing the streets; it becomes also a form of reuse and of the city as a whole from this starting point.
