  • Sir William Strickland Racing
    Sir William Strickland, York House, The Talbot Hotel and Langton Wold Racecourse The association between York House and the Strickland Hunting Lodge and the Langton Wold Racecourse and the racing industry in Malton and Norton is strong and significant. The site of the Talbot Hotel was purchased by Strickland from the Hebblethwaite’s in 1672. York House belonged to Strickland after 1684 and his passion for racing, horse-breeding and his role as Master of Ceremonies at Langton Wold seems to have informed the architectural design of the garden front off York House (see above). York House in its exterior appearance as well as its interior lay-out and design, and that of its gardens was transformed by Strickland as a vehicle of display and ceremony associated not only with his role as MP for the town but in his role and status within the local and regional horse-racing fraternity. It was a place for business meetings and social events. York House may have briefly become the Malton residence of the Watson Wentworths after 1739 when they acquired it from the executors of the 4 th Baronet’s estate. The Marquess of Rockingham was, of course, himself an avid racehorse breeder and owner and ran horses in the area and the role for York House that Strickland created will have continued during Rockingham’s time, for all that at this time he was mainly resident at Wentworth Woodhouse, one of Europe’s largest houses, works to which by John Carr would be continued by his son Charles after 1760 and would include the construction after 1766 of grand stables for some 84 horses, of which Whistlejacket had already become the most famous, winning the 2,000 Guineas at York in 1759 and being painted by George Stubbs in 1762.

  • Marquess of Rockingham
    8 Marquess of Rockingham 13 July 1765 to 30 July 1766; 27 March to 1 July 1782 Whig By Jesse Norman Full name: Charles Watson-Wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rockingham Born: 13 May 1730, Wentworth House, Rotherham Died: 1 July 1782, Wimbledon, London. Buried at York Minster Education: Westminster School Married to Mary Bright; no children Quotation: ‘The King can have no interests, no dignity, no views whatever, distinct from those of his people.’ harles watson-wentworth, 2nd Marquess of Rocking- Cham, was the eighth British prime minister to have held that office since it took recognisably modern form in the hands of Robert Walpole. But otherwise he was everything Walpole was not: 47 204BBB_TXT.indd 47 25/09/2020 15:31 the prime ministers aristocratic, retiring in disposition if sporadically headstrong, a poor public speaker, personally incorruptible, but of limited energy and executive capability. These are not in general the qualities of a successful politician, then or now. Rockingham spent little time in office, and his admin- istration has been treated with icy condescension by historians ever since. For many, he is little more than a figure of fun, notable only for his love of the turf, for giving the St Leger its name, and for commissioning from George Stubbs a magnificent life-size painting of his horse Whistlejacket, which hangs today in the National Gallery in London. His home, Wentworth Woodhouse, was the largest private house in Britain, with some 365 rooms (no one is sure exactly how many) and a magnificent East Front of 606 feet, the longest façade of its kind in Europe.

Moore, Co-Supervisor Lance Bertelsen David Brewer Elizabeth A. Hedrick Blind Items: Anonymity, Notoriety, and the Making of Eighteenth-Century Celebrity by Kevin Jordan Bourque, B.A., M.A. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin August 2012 “Talent is not what Uncle Buck and I deal in, Miss Van Allen,” I said, lightly resting my hand on Buck’s clenched fist. “We deal in myths. At any given moment the world requires one full-bodied blonde Aphrodite (Jean Harlow), one dark siren of flawless beauty (Hedy Lamarr), one powerful inarticulate brute of a man (John Wayne), one smooth debonair charmer (Melvyn Douglas), one world-weary corrupt lover past his prime (Humphrey Bogart), one eternal good-sex woman-wife (Myrna Loy), one wide-eyed chicken boy (Lon McCallister), one gentle girl singer (Susanna Foster), one winning stud (Clark Gable), one losing stud outside the law (James Cagney), and so on. Olympus supports many gods and goddesses and they are truly eternal, since whenever one fades or falls another promptly takes his place, for the race requires that the pantheon be always filled... And so, like priestesses, despite all personal hardship, we must constantly test and analyze the young men and women of America in order to find the glittering few who are immortal, who are the old, the permanent gods of our race reborn.” – Gore Vidal, Myra Breckinridge (1968) Acknowledgments My time working on and thinking about this project has been spent within a coterie of exceptionally generous, brilliant and nurturing people.

My Floridian friends, students, and mentors have enhanced my confidence and reassured my unease during many stressful occasions. Several colleagues in London were critical in the research and planning stages: most notably Anthony Spira at the Whitechapel Gallery and Milton Keynes Gallery. The staff at the Anthony Reynolds Gallery (Maria Stathi in particular) allowed me unlimited access to rare video works and press materials.
