HCNL112 in Preparation.Wps The Hardyeans' Club TO STAY IN TOUCH WITH YOUR FRIENDS In this issue Hardye's School, Dorchester, Dorset Hardyeans Club Info / Events p 2 Autumn 2010 : Issue 112 Newsletter You Write Pages 5-6 Published Winter, Spring and Autumn Opinions expressed by contributors are not necessarily those of the From the Chairman Page 3 Editor Membership News Page 6 - 7 New Club Treasurer introduces himself: Obituaries Pages 3 - 5 Alan Brown (Hardye’s 1957- 64) London Dinner Booking form No doubt by now you will have seen my name as having taken over the role of (repeated) Page 7 Treasurer for the Hardyeans Club, and no doubt some are wondering who I am! Headteacher page 8 I was born in Weymouth in 1946, but by the time I was aged 6 we had moved to Charminster, just outside Dorchester, where my parents lived for the next 29 years. I went to Hardye’s in 1957, one of only two boys from the village school. The other, Leslie Ralls, was a good friend of mine but unfortunately wasn’t in the same class, so it was a bit of a culture shock for me. However I eventually settled in and looking back I suppose overall I enjoyed my time at Hardye’s. I can recall several teachers who had various degrees of influence on my future. Rex Tompsett gave me an interest in History which I still have, and Ken Batty inspired my love of church architecture, although I was pretty useless at Art itself. Bertie Cruse gave me a good foundation in French, which I have built on over the years. How he managed to teach us anything I’ll never know, we played him something rotten! A teacher whose surname was Johns turned me off Latin completely, and even though ‘Joe’ Roberts taught it to me later it was the only ‘O’ Level I failed. Stan Walton aroused my interest in Science, and this was finally complete when Mr Barass taught me Chemistry at ‘O’ Level. Originally I was going to be an architect, but overnight decided Science was for me. Stan Walton, Alan Burton and John Hawthorne taught me at ‘A’ Level, all were really good teachers. Others I recall were ‘Jake’ Westlake, ‘Basil’ Bax, and Mr Lancashire. An event I have always remembered with great affection was the trip to Provence that Joe Roberts organised in April 1964. About 24 of us went – is anyone else reading this who went on that trip? Quite an undertaking in those days, as it was nothing like as easy to organise a school trip then as it is now. I kept saying I’d go back there, and finally in 2004 my wife pointed out it had been 40 years ago, so off we went, and have now returned three times. The one thing which sticks in my mind about my early years at Hardye’s is Games – I hated them. I was physically quite small for my age, found it hard to keep up, and also had to wear glasses, so standing in the middle of a muddy field, unable to see properly, with a couple of dozen boys larger than me bearing rapidly down with the apparent aim of killing me wasn’t perhaps the best introduction to sport. I distinctly remember one occasion, when I could only have been 13, the Games teacher punched me in the stomach because I touched a piece of apparatus without permission. He wouldn’t have got away with it these days. Unfortunately I have never really gotten over the experience, and have not enjoyed any form of sport for the rest of my life. I always enjoyed the CCF, I was in the Corps of Drums for 5 years, reaching the exalted rank of Sergeant, (although it took some effort to persuade David Lacey that I was the only member of the CCF in the 6th form who wasn’t an NCO!) and being one of those honoured enough to play Last Post at the school gates on Remembrance Day. A few years later I joined the Dorset ACF as an adult instructor, eventually being CO of the Wimborne Detachment, with a TA commission! During my time there we had the honour of being associated with the 3rd Royal Tank Regiment, which meant we wore a different uniform and cap badge to the rest of the units in the county. On one occasion we met up with David Lacey on an orienteering course. I didn’t actually draw his attention to my rank! After leaving Hardye’s I went to Bristol to study Pharmacy, but gave up after the first year as the course wasn’t right for me and I couldn’t settle. I came back home and got a job with BDH Chemicals in Poole. It was so much easier in those days, I feel sorry for the youngsters these days who can’t get work. I spent three years there and gained a Higher National Certificate in Chemistry via day release, so didn’t really lose out by leaving university. My brother Terry was at Hardye’s by now, and he joined a Go-Kart club run by John Hawthorne. As I had a car I went along initially to help transport boys to the Clay Pigeon Raceway on Saturday afternoons, and continued to help for the next 5 years. It was during this time that John Hawthorne suggested I change to a career more suited to my qualifications and ability at working with youngsters, thus setting me off on my lifelong career of school teaching. I trained for two years at St Luke’s in Exeter, gaining a distinction in Chemistry, and was lucky enough to land my first job ‘back home’ at Queen Elizabeth’s School in Wimborne. From there I moved to Middle Schools, and over the years was Science Co-Ordinator at Canford Heath Middle, Heatherlands Middle in Upper Parkstone, and finally Broadstone Middle. We still live in Bournemouth. My career suddenly ended in October 1998 when I suffered a completely unexpected heart attack at the age of 52. Fortunately I survived and my pension was enhanced and I officially retired in August 2000 – aged only 54! As a result of the heart attack various tests were done and it was found that I had some congenitally narrowed arteries, and these had been a problem all my life. Suddenly I realised why sport had been such hard work! Fortunately minor surgery has corrected the fault and I’m now fitter then I’ve probably ever been. Colleagues I particularly remember (who may rather forget me!) include John Barbara, Dave Pope, Roger Parry, Don Moxom, Steven Merlin, Tony Firshman, Ian Broom (who was later my best man), Bob Hutchings, Trevor Jesty and Pete Broad (Drum Major when we were in the 6th Form), to name but a few. I also knew Michel Hooper-Immins quite well, although he was a year lower. If anyone out there does remember me do get in touch, my address is as below.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-85507-5 - The Cambridge Introduction to Shakespeare’s History Plays Warren Chernaik Frontmatter More information The Cambridge Introduction to Shakespeare’s History Plays Shakespeare’s history plays, as fresh today as when they were written, are based upon the assumption that time is not simply a destroyer but a preserver, and that ‘examples past’ might enable us to understand the present and anticipate the future. This lively study examines the continuing tradition of Shakespeare’s history plays in stage and film productions as well as giving an account of the critical debate on these plays. Following two introductory chapters giving essential background on the genre, the English history plays are discussed in turn, bringing out the distinctive characteristics of each play: the three early Henry VI plays; the perennial stage favourite Richard III; King John; Richard II; Henry IV 1 and 2, famous for the character of Falstaff; Henry V,whichistreated very differently in the film versions by Olivier and Branagh; and Henry VIII. An invaluable introduction to these fascinating and complex plays.

  • Twins in Early Modern English Drama and Shakespeare
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 04:46 12 April 2017 Twins in Early Modern English Drama and Shakespeare This volume investigates the early modern understanding of twinship through new readings of plays, informed by discussions of twins appear- ing in such literature as anatomy tracts, midwifery manuals, monstrous birth broadsides, and chapbooks. The book contextualizes such dramatic representations of twinship, investigating contemporary discussions about twins in medical and popular literature and how such dialogues resonate with the twin characters appearing on the early modern stage. Murray demonstrates that, in this period, twin births were viewed as biologically aberrant and, because of this classification, authors frequently attempted to explain the phenomenon in ways that call into question the moral and constitutional standing of both the parents and the twins themselves. In line with current critical studies on pregnancy and the female body, discussions of twin births reveal a distrust of the mother and the processes surrounding twin conception; however, a correspond- ing suspicion of twins also emerges, which monstrous birth pamphlets exemplify. This book analyzes the representation of twins in early mod- ern drama in light of this information, moving from tragedies through to comedies. This progression demonstrates how the dramatic potential inherent in the early modern understanding of twinship is capitalized on by playwrights, as negative ideas about twins can be seen transitioning into tragic and tragicomic depictions of twinship. However, by building toward a positive, comic representation of twins, the work additionally suggests an alternate interpretation of twinship in this period, which appreciates and celebrates twins because of their difference.

  • Queer Television Thesis FINAL DRAFT Amended Date and Footnotes
    Queer British Television: Policy and Practice, 1997-2007 Natalie Edwards PhD thesis submitted to the University of Nottingham School of American and Canadian Studies, January 2010 Abstract Representations of gay, lesbian, queer and other non-heterosexualities on British terrestrial television have increased exponentially since the mid 1990s. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer characters now routinely populate mainstream series, while programmes like Queer as Folk (1999-2000), Tipping the Velvet (2002), Torchwood (2006-) and Bad Girls (1999-2006) have foregrounded specifically gay and lesbian themes. This increase correlates to a number of gay-friendly changes in UK social policy pertaining to sexual behaviour and identity, changes precipitated by the election of Tony Blair’s Labour government in 1997. Focusing primarily on the decade following Blair’s installation as Prime Minister, this project examines a variety of gay, lesbian and queer-themed British television programmes in the context of their political, cultural and industrial determinants, with the goal of bridging the gap between the cultural product and the institutional factors which precipitated its creation. Ultimately, it aims to establish how and why this increase in LGBT and queer programming occurred when it did by relating it to the broader, government-sanctioned integration of gays, lesbians and queers into the imagined cultural mainstream of the UK. Unlike previous studies of lesbian, gay and queer film and television, which have tended to draw conclusions about cultural trends purely through textual analysis, this project uses government and broadcasting industry policy documents as well as detailed examination of specific television programmes to substantiate links between the cultural product and the wider world.

  • Sir Ian Mclellan in Shakespeare
    'ACTING GOOD PARTS WELL': SIR IAN McKELLEN IN SHAKESPEARE by HILARY EDITH W. LONG A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Arts of the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY The Shakespeare Institute School of English Faculty of Arts The University of Birmingham March 2000 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. SYNOPSIS This thesis examines the performances which have earned Sir lan McKellen a reputation as one of the foremost Shakespearean actors of the day. His reputation has been built on five major performances: Richard II, Macbeth, Coriolanus, lago and Richard III. His performances as Hamlet, Romeo, Leontes and Kent were only limited successes. This thesis places McKellen's performances in these roles in the specific context of the production as a whole. Where it is relevant it assesses the significance of the casting of other roles, the influence of the personality, style and interests of the director, the policy of the theatre company and the impact of the performance space. This thesis identifies patterns in McKellen's work determined by his own personality and sexuality, the Cambridge education he shares with Sir Peter Hall, John Barton and Trevor Nunn, and his relationships with other actors.

  • Shakespeare and the Thirties: Representations of the Past in Contemporary Performance
    SHAKESPEARE AND THE THIRTIES: REPRESENTATIONS OF THE PAST IN CONTEMPORARY PERFORMANCE by JAMI ROGERS A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY The Shakespeare Institute School of English, Drama and American and Canadian Studies The University of Birmingham May 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines the performance history of Shakespeare focusing on those productions performed as a period analogue of the nineteen-thirties. It engages with the material in two ways. It first attempts to locate influences that have led to the development of this style of performance, finding correlations with both theatrical production and televisual drama. It then examines the productions as performed, focusing on the construction of scenography and actor performances. Throughout the analysis, this thesis engages with shifts in the representation of the historical past on both stage and screen.

Rogers 1916-2003 "Take Me Home, Country Roads" ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This thesis is the product of more years of experience than I probably care to admit.
