Steven Zdatny, Andrew Buchanan, and Meaghan Emery University of Vermont History Department Honors College Thesis April 17, 2019 Acknowledgements: Nearly half of my time at UVM was spent working on this project. Beginning as a seminar paper for Professor Zdatny’s class in Fall 2018, my research on Churchill and De Gaulle slowly grew into the thesis that follows. It was a collaborative effort that allowed me to combine all of my fields of study from my entire university experience. This project took me to London and Cambridge to conduct archival research and made for many late nights on the second floor of the Howe Library. I feel an overwhelming sense of pride and accomplishment for this thesis that is reflective of the work I have done at UVM.

  • Winston Churchill
    Winston Churchill (1874 – 1965) The Right Honourable Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill , the son of Lord Randolph Churchill and an American mother, was educated at Harrow and Sandhurst. After a brief but eventful career in the army, he became a Conservative Member of Parliament in 1900. He held many high posts in Liberal and Conservative governments during the first three decades of the century. At the outbreak of the Second World War, he was appointed First Lord of the Admiralty - a post which he had earlier held from 1911 to 1915. In May, 1940, he became Prime Minister and Minister of Defence and remained in office until 1945. He took over the premiership again in the Conservative victory of 1951 and resigned in 1955. However, he remained a Member of Parliament until the general election of 1964, when he did not seek re-election. Queen Elizabeth II conferred on Churchill the dignity of Knighthood and invested him with the insignia of the Order of the Garter in 1953. Among the other countless honours and decorations he received, special mention should be made of the honorary citizenship of the United States which President Kennedy conferred on him in 1963. Early life Winston Churchill was born on 30 November 1874 into the aristocratic Spencer-Churchill family of the noble Dukes of Marlborough, but his mother was born in America. After enjoying a privileged childhood, Churchill began his education in 1888 at Harrow, a top London boys’ school. He did not prove to be an outstanding student and school was not therefore something he enjoyed.

  • Address to the Members of the United Kingdom Chapter of the Legion D’Honneur
    Address to the Members of the United Kingdom Chapter of the Legion d’Honneur by Sir Nicholas Soames at the Institut français du Royaume-Uni Thursday 10 December 2020 It is a great honour for me to have been invited to speak to this gathering of Members of the United Kingdom Chapter of the Legion d’Honneur and I am delighted to do so before such a distinguished virtual audience, including Her Excellency the Ambassador of France, albeit it at what is for many of us, a very melancholy, uncertain and fragile time in our lives, and those of our two countries. We meet in what has been a terrible year for both Britain and France because of the COVID 19, but also a year of great significance. For this year marks the 80th anniversary of General de Gaulle’s APPEL on the 18th June, 1940. President Macron honoured London when he visited us to mark the APPEL, which served as such a magnificent and heroic rallying cry to the French people, in the aftermath of the deeply painful occupation of France in 1940. The President spoke in the shadow of General de Gaulle’s statue in Carlton Gardens, where the Free French had had their Headquarters. He there presented to His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales, the framed insignia of the Legion d’Honneur, as he said; “As an expression of the French Republic’s infinite gratitude, by awarding London, in a wholly exceptional capacity, the Cross of the Legion d’Honneur” for London’s support of France during the long and bitter years of the Second World War.

  • 'A War of the Imagination'
    Paul Gough, „A Terrible Beauty‟, 2010, ISBN-10: 1906593000 This is the opening Chapter of PAUL GOUGH, A Terrible Beauty: British Artists in the First World War, Sansom, Bristol, 2010, ISBN-10: 1906593000, and ISBN-13: 978-1906593001 INTRODUCTION Like many other professions caught up in the heady first months of the war, painters and sculptors –professional and amateur, famous and obscure – were called upon to enlist in the armed services. Some thirty artists joined the RAMC en bloc following a single recruitment visit to the bar of the Chelsea Arts Club by the commandant of the 3rd London General Hospital. (1) The Studio – a popular arts and crafts magazine – ran page-long lists of those who had signed up; many joined the Artists‟ Rifles, an officer-training unit, which attracted painters, poets, architects, writers, and many others with artistic aspirations – if not the talent. (2) Some chose to ignore the call to arms. Many had little choice: war was bad for business. The art market shrivelled, prices tumbled, artist‟s materials became scarce. While emerging artists wrestled with their patriotic consciences, established artists were expected to donate items of work to patriotic causes or to offer up blank canvases for auctions organised by the Red Cross and other charities. (3) However, not everyone in Britain thought the onset of war an unmitigated catastrophe. Many on the right of the political spectrum saw it not as the end of the golden period of Victorian and Edwardian eminence, but an opportunity to purge the nation of social maladies – amongst them feminism, industrialization, modernism, and futurism – which they felt had blighted the country in the previous decade.
