  • The Re-Imagining of Bradford's Collection As a Transcultural
    conference papers academic and professional strands / negotiating artefacts cultural identity and the municipal gallery: the re-imagining of bradford’s collection as a transcultural representation of identity at cartwright hall 1904-2014 AUTHORS: Jemma Browne Nottingham Trent University (UK) Ana Souto Nottingham Trent University (UK) Abstract Museums have historically played an important role in the formation of cultural identities; they evolved in their current form in the late nineteenth century concurrent with the emergence of the bourgeois public sphere (Bennett, 1995). As cities have been spatially transformed through time by the layering of new and existing expressions of cultural identity, galleries and museums have struggled to retain their meaning as representational spaces. The municipal gallery at Cartwright Hall in Bradford presents a timely case study demonstrating how it ensured that its collection evolved to reflect the changing communities in the city and how, by re-imagining the idea of heritage, it has created a transcultural representation of identity. Keywords: cultural identity, collective memory, empire, transcultural space 51 conference papers academic and professional strands / negotiating artefacts cultural identity and the municipal gallery: the re-imagining of bradford’s collection as a transcultural representation of identity at cartwright hall 1904-2014 1. Identity formation: museums and the public sphere Museums and galleries are important cultural spaces within our cityscapes; they present unique opportunities to shape and represent multiple cultural identities, disseminating ideas and memory through both their exhibitions and the architectural form they take. This paper uses the example of Cartwright Hall to explore how museums have used multi-temporal strategies to communicate collective memory and represent cultural identities through time.

  • History of the British Textile Industry It All Started with the Industrial Revolution in 1733 and the First Cotton Mill
    History of the British Textile Industry It all started with the Industrial Revolution in 1733 and the first cotton mill.... The British textile industry can surely be dated as far back as the Middle Age, but it is originally very much a rural, cottage-located industry – fabrics were manufactured for local use only, produced locally and sold locally. For centuries the textile production is way of life for the British people as in the other countries in the world but what made it different and built it as one of the leaders in this area was the never- ending spirit of improvements, curiosity and discoveries, sparking immense amounts of creativity, productivity and innovation that Great Britain gave the world through the Industrial Revolution. There are two major facts about the Industrial Revolution: 1. The steam engine – it changed the way the world experienced production – the steam engine made it possible for heavily machinery to be used in factories; and 2. The assembly line – a new methods of production where manufacturing times were greatly lowered, meaning the product could be given to the public much faster and in larger quantities. The textile industry was indeed at the center of British’s industrial expansion and technological advances meant that cotton, wools, silks and dyestuffs could be produces at unprecedented rates, with results exported around the Empire. At the beginning of 18th century, Great Britain is overloaded with recourses and raw materials from the colonies. On the other side, the improved way of life increased population and with the two things combined the demand of more textile increased, improvements meant for prices to become reasonable and produce – more widely available to everyone.

  • Textile Tools and Production at a Mycenaean Secondary Centre
    Textile Tools and Production at a Mycenaean Secondary Centre By Max K. MacDonald B.A., Greek and Roman Studies, University of Victoria, 2015 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Greek and Roman Studies © Max MacDonald, 2017 All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. ii Supervisory Committee Supervisor: Dr. Brendan Burke, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Departmental Member: Dr. Alejandro Sinner, (Department of Greek and Roman Studies) Abstract: This thesis is a study of textile production in the Late Bronze Age, using new evidence uncovered by excavations at Ancient Eleon in Boeotia, Greece. Textile production is a nearly forgotten art. To the Mycenaeans of the Greek Late Bronze Age (ca. 1700-1100 BCE) textiles were nearly a form of currency, and a symbol of power. This thesis begins by examining the Mycenaean administration of textile production, which was systematically controlled by the palatial centres of Greece and Crete. Linear B documents record resources and workers under palatial control, and the amounts of cloth that they were expected to produce. The Mycenaean palace at Thebes was the administrative centre that controlled the region of eastern Boeotia, including sites such as Eleon. No document directly links textile production at Eleon to Thebes, but other Theban tablets and the two sites’ close proximity suggest a similar relationship to other Mycenaean centres and their dependents. Usually, ancient textiles from Greece do not survive in the archaeological record.

    ISSN: 2350-0328 International Journal of Advanced Research in Science, Engineering and Technology Vol. 7, Issue 9 , September 2020 Analysis of Fibrous Waste Generated in the Preparation Departments of Spinning Mills and Cotton Processing Dilmuhammad Davronbekogli Atambayev, Muhriddin Hakimjonogli Hasanov Assistant, Department of “Metrology, Standardization and Quality Management”, Namangan Institute of Engineering and Technology, Namangan, Uzbekistan Master Student, Department of “Metrology, standardization and quality management (textile and light industry)”, Namangan Institute of Engineering and Technology, Namangan, Uzbekistan ABSTRACT:The article studied the composition and properties of the fibers in the fiber waste. For the study, the properties of fibrous waste from the equipment of the procurement department of “INDORAMA Kokand Textile” were analyzed on the analyzer AX-2 and laboratory equipment HVI-1000. KEYWORDS: fiber, cotton, waste, shaving, spinning, cleaning, warfare, standard. I. INTRODUCTION Today, within the sectors of the economy, only a large share of the volume of production is accounted for by the products of the textile industry. The main raw material of the textile industry in Uzbekistan is cotton fiber. The main raw material for spinning Enterprises is obtained from cotton cleaning enterprises, the obtained cotton fiber is cleaned at the spinning enterprise, recycled, and the finished product is obtained from it. In the process of cleaning the fibers, due to the impact of force on the well-crumbled fibers, their shaking occurred, thereby ensuring the mandatory separation of all defects in it. In this case, defects separated from the fibers are separated into a special chamber by a grid or perforations in a special structure [1].

  • 214 April 1882. on Wool-Combing by Modern Machinery
    214 APRIL1882. ON WOOL-COMBING BY MODERN MACHINERY. - BY BIR. F. Sf. T. LANGE, OF ST. ACHEUL-LES-AMIENE. The Combing of Wool by Machinery has made such vast progress towards perfection, that it will be unnecessary to do more than touch upon the old process of combing by hand ; but a few words may be devoted to this subject, in order to give a clearer idea of the work to be performed on the raw wool. The wool, after having been washed, is in a very tangled state, and full of little knots and burrs, technically called buttons, neps, or motes. It therefore requires to be straightened out, and to have the buttons, neps, or motes removed from it; and this can only be done by passing a comb through the mass many times." The wool works much more kindly if the combs (which have steel teeth) are warm, and if a little oil is put on the wool ; hence in former days three hand-combers generally worked around one " fire pot," with burning charcoal in it, and each man placed one of his hand-combs on the edge of the pot to get warm whilst he was using the two others. Of these, one comb was placed on a projecting vertical spike attached to a post (the '' pad post" as it was callqd), with its teeth standing upwards; and into this the comber lashed or struck the end of a bunch or body of wool which he held in his * Saint Blake, Bishop of Sebaste in Cappadocia, who lived in the second century, is supposed to have been the inventor of the hand-comb, and he die& D martyr, his flesh being torn to pieces with his own iron combs.
