    University of Bristol Department of Historical Studies Best undergraduate dissertations of 2009 Harriet Lowson ‘The Poor Prostituted Word’: The Taste Debate in Britain 1750-1800 PDF processed with CutePDF evaluation edition www.CutePDF.com In June 2009, the Department of Historical Studies at the University of Bristol voted to begin to publish the best of the annual dissertations produced by the department’s 3rd year undergraduates (deemed to be those receiving a mark of 75 or above) in recognition of the excellent research work being undertaken by our students. As a department, we are committed to the advancement of historical knowledge and understanding, and to research of the highest order. We believe that our undergraduates are part of that endeavour. This was one of the best of this year’s 3rd year undergraduate dissertations. Please note: this dissertation is published in the state it was submitted for examination. Thus the author has not been able to correct errors and/or departures from departmental guidelines for the presentation of dissertations (e.g. in the formatting of its footnotes and bibliography).

This dissertation seeks to explore who possessed it in their armoury and the targets at which they aimed. Evolving from a physical attachment to the human sense, the definition of taste has developed to become a matter of inclination and discrimination.

Without Shirley’s infectious enthusiasm this project would not have happened. Shirley gave unstintingly of her time and energy to protect the area she loved from HS2, but she also knew the importance of assembling robust evidence, using recognised research methods and arming oneself with the relevant facts and figures to fight a cause. Drive and determination had to matched by the evidence. Shirley wanted a proper baseline study on the value of tourism threatened by HS2. At her specific request we raised the money and commissioned Tourism South East, a specialist tourist organisation with a research arm, to undertake the study. The Chilterns Conservation Board, where Shirley had been a dedicated board member for 10 years, kindly agreed to manage the project. Shirley’s wish was to petition to the Select Committee. Through this report she will.

  • Hotel Brochure
    HARTWELL HOUSE HOTEL, RESTAURANT AND SPA VALE OF AYLESBURY “Why wouldst thou leave calm Hartwell’s green abode… Apician table and Horatian Ode?” Lord Byron 1814 of Louis XVIII’s departure for France to assume his throne. Hartwell House enjoys a tranquil setting in the Buckinghamshire countryside, two miles West of the busy town of Aylesbury. London is easily reached by train or car and, like Heathrow and Luton Airports, is just an hour’s drive. The Vale of Aylesbury is one of the most beautiful parts of Buckinghamshire, endowed with several grand properties owned by the National Trust, including Waddesdon Manor, home of the Rothschild family; Claydon House, renowned for its association with Florence Nightingale the “Lady of the Lamp”; Hughenden Manor, home to Benjamin Disraeli and Stowe Landscape Gardens with its many follies, are also nearby. Oxford, its colleges, museums and art galleries are only 20 miles away, and a little further is Blenheim Palace, seat of the Dukes of Marlborough and birthplace of Sir Winston Churchill. Hartwell House, one of England’s stately homes, just 40 miles north west of London, was restored by Historic House Hotels on their third project after Bodysgallen Hall in North Wales, and Middlethorpe Hall in York. As a hotel it offers luxury and every modern amenity in a magnificent setting. The house has both Jacobean and Georgian features with outstanding decorative ceilings and panelling, fine paintings and antique furniture in its elegant and spacious rooms. It has a remarkable history: its most famous resident was Louis XVIII, exiled King of France, for five years from 1809.
