Through interviews, participant observation and secondary resource analysis, I explore what people involved in the civic life of the city are proud of about Nottingham, what they consider the city’s (civic) identity to be and what it means to promote, defend and practice civic pride. Civic pride has been under-examined in geography and needs better theoretical and empirical insight.

  • Simon Roberts
    SIMON ROBERTS We English – Public Suggestions Simon Roberts travelled throughout England in a motorhome between August 2007 and September 2008, for this portfolio of large-format tableaux photographs of the English at leisure. Roberts’ national survey was informed by the photography of his predecessors Tony Ray Jones, John Davies and Martin Parr, and by the romantic tradition of English landscape painting. Photographing ordinary people engaged in a variety of pastimes, Roberts finds beauty in the mundane; the result is an elegiac exploration of identity, attachment to home and land, and the relationship between people and place. During the course of this project members of the public were invited to post ideas of events and leisure pursuits that Roberts could come and photograph; a suitably democratic way of working, positioning him as it did alongside his fellow countrymen – a citizen, not just an onlooker – and attempting to involve people, to a certain degree, in their own representation. The ideas that were posted provide an interesting snapshot of England in 2008 in their own right. They illustrate what’s important to people and explore their own thoughts on the notion of Englishness. You can read them all here in unedited form and in the order they were posted on the website (www.we- english.co.uk), starting with the most recent. Michael Blann November 13, 2008 We are an island and therefore surrounded by water and beaches. It has protected us throughout history, offered us a source of food, has been a playground in the summer and is ever changing too. I'm not sure what the specific project could be but it's a good starting point.

Whilst there were many pugilists that represented Britain and Europe in the heavyweight championship title bouts during this era, Beckett’s identity was unique. Born into a travelling Showperson family and boxing in the fairground booths from a young age, he was discovered by his long term manager in his late teens and catapulted into professional fighting.
