  • Prose Idylls New and Old
    Prose Idylls New and Old By Charles Kingsley Prose Idylls New and Old I. ‘A CHARM OF BIRDS.’ Is it merely a fancy that we English, the educated people among us at least, are losing that love for spring which among our old forefathers rose almost to worship? That the perpetual miracle of the budding leaves and the returning songbirds awakes no longer in us the astonishment which it awoke yearly among the dwellers in the old world, when the sun was a god who was sick to death each winter, and returned in spring to life and health, and glory; when the death of Adonis, at the autumnal equinox, was wept over by the Syrian women, and the death of Baldur, in the colder north, by all living things, even to the dripping trees, and the rocks furrowed by the autumn rains; when Freya, the goddess of youth and love, went forth over the earth each spring, while the flowers broke forth under her tread over the brown moors, and the birds welcomed her with song; when, according to Olaus Magnus, the Goths and South Swedes had, on the return of spring, a mock battle between summer and winter, and welcomed the returning splendour of the sun with dancing and mutual feasting, rejoicing that a better season for fishing and hunting was approaching? To those simpler children of a simpler age, in more direct contact with the daily and yearly facts of Nature, and more dependent on them for their bodily food and life, winter and spring were the two great facts of existence; the symbols, the one of death, the other of life; and the battle between the two the battle of the sun with darkness, of winter with spring, of death with life, of bereavement with love lay at the root of all their myths and all their creeds.

  • 2005 Autumn Winter.Pdf
    CHESHIRE WALKERS Walks Programme October 2005 to March 2006 Welcome to the Autumn to Spring programme of walks for the Cheshire Walkers Under 40s walking group. The programme runs from October to the end of March, and hopefully it will be inspiring enough to get you out on a chilly Sunday morning! As ever we seem to have flown through the Summer months, but not without enjoying ourselves. Apart from the Sunday walks we have had a number of well supported and enjoyable weekends away - the first in the Yorkshire Dales in May, staying at Stainforth Youth Hostel, then in June about a dozen people took up Angus’ challenge – which this year was the 20mile Mosedale Round. The most gripping weekend was the Go Ape experience, which was a test of character for many people – a few hours spent swinging in the trees of Grizedale forest, and finally the camping weekend on Anglesey, with some spectacular coastal walking. This new programme has a couple of traditional events to look forward to, the first being the Christmas walk and festive lunch, and then in January it’s the annual Lakes weekend, which will be based in Keswick this year. Thanks to all those who have led walks this Summer and have again submitted walks for this programme, also to our new walk leaders and organisers who have enjoyed walking with the group and have wanted to put something back in. The AGM / meal, will be on 16th November (venue to be announced) so come along if you are so inspired, and if not just come along for a good chat and a hearty meal.

  • The Neolithic of the Peak District: a Lefebvrian Social Geography Approach to Spatial Analysis
    THE NEOLITHIC OF THE PEAK DISTRICT: A LEFEBVRIAN SOCIAL GEOGRAPHY APPROACH TO SPATIAL ANALYSIS by ROBIN BRYN WEAVER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham May 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

ABSTRACT In this thesis I construct, implement and evaluate a Lefebvrian model of space and society suitable for archaeology, using the Neolithic Peak District as my case study. Archaeologists have largely overlooked the work of French Marxist philosopher and social theorist Henri Lefebvre or come to it second-hand, meaning that his dialectical model of the production of space has never been used to understand prehistoric society. My thesis demonstrates the value to archaeology of such an approach by applying Lefebvre’s three-part dialectical model of the production of space to the monuments and landscape of the Neolithic Peak. In doing so, it challenges simplistic binary readings of social space, replacing them with a Lefebvrian social geography approach to space.

Chapter I. INTRODUCTORY. NEAR the end of February 1857, I think about the 20th or so, though it don't much matter; I only know it was near the latter end of summer, burning hot, with the bushfires raging like volcanoes on the ranges, and the river reduced to a slender stream of water, almost lost upon the broad white flats of quartz shingle. It was the end of February, I said, when Major Buckley, Captain Brentwood (formerly of the Artillery), and I, Geoffry Hamlyn, sat together over our wine in the veranda at Baroona, gazing sleepily on the grey plains that rolled away east and north−east towards the sea.
