  • Consuming Fin De Siécle London: Female Consumers in Dorothy Richardson’S Pilgrimage
    Wenshan Review of Literature and Culture．Vol 4.1．December 2010．57-80. Consuming Fin de Siécle London: Female Consumers in Dorothy Richardson’s Pilgrimage Han-sheng Wang ABSTRACT As an emerging site of female consumption, the West End of London in the fin de siècle period registers especially women‟s greater mobility in public consuming spaces. Along the central streets of the West End, with its mushrooming of shops, department stores, theaters, cafés, female clubs, and cinemas around the turn of the century, women increasingly manifest their visibility as purchasers, pleasure-seekers, and window-shoppers on the public street and the hetero-social urban space. Established during the same time, situated in the same neighborhood, and courting the same consuming public, these institutions address middle-class women as target customers and, through inviting them to purchase goods and services, contribute to the disruption of the long-held Victorian separate spheres and to the increased female public visibility at the turn of the century. This paper would thus examine female consumption as manifesting fin de siècle women‟s complicated involvement in the city‟s consuming spaces and commodity culture, which is represented by Dorothy Richardson in her fictional narratives about female consumers emerging in fin de siècle London, a phenomenon historically experienced by women of the 1880s and 1890s who increasingly found London‟s West End a site of consumption and female pleasure.

    1 THE EVOLVING RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN FOOD AND TOURISM: A CASE STUDY OF DEVON THROUGH THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Submitted by: Paul Edward Cleave, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Management Studies. November 2011 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without prior acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature............................................. 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank everyone who contributed so generously and patiently of their time and expertise in the completion of this thesis, and especially to my supervisor, Professor Gareth Shaw for his guidance and inspiration. Their unfailing support and encouragement in my endeavours is greatly appreciated. Paul Cleave 3 Abstract The aim of this thesis is to examine the evolving relationship between food and tourism through the twentieth century. Devon, a county in the South West of England, and a popular tourist destination is used as the geographical focus of the case study. Previous studies have tended to focus on particular locations at a fixed point in time, not over the timescale of a century. The research presents a social and economic history of food in the context of tourism. It incorporates many food related interests reflecting the topical and evolving, embracing leisure, pleasure and social history, Burnett (2004).

  • Modernist Vintages: the Significance of Wine in Wilde, Richardson, Joyce
    Modernist Vintages: The Significance of Wine in Wilde, Richardson, Joyce and Waugh by Laura Waugh A Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy Approved March 2013 by the Graduate Supervisory Committee: Mark Lussier, Chair Daniel Bivona Patrick Bixby ARIZONA STATE UNIVERSITY May 2013 ABSTRACT “Modernist Vintages” considers the significance of wine in a selection of modernist texts that includes Oscar Wilde’s Salomé (1891), Dorothy Richardson’s Honeycomb (1917), James Joyce’s Ulysses (1922), and Evelyn Waugh’s Brideshead Revisited: The Sacred and Profane Memories of Captain Charles Ryder (1945). The representations of wine in these fictions respond to the creative and destructive depictions of Wine that have imbued the narratives of myth, religion, and philosophy for thousands of years; simultaneously, these WorKs recreate and reflect on numerous Wine-related events and movements that shaped European discourse in the nineteenth and tWentieth centuries. The modernists use Wine’s conventional associations to diverse and innovative ends: as the playWright August Strindberg Writes, “NeW forms have not been found for the neW content, so that the neW Wine has burst the old bottles.” Wine in these works alternately, and often concurrently, evoKes themes that Were important to the modernists, including notions of indulgence and Waste, pleasure and addiction, experimentation and ritual, tradition and nostalgia, regional distinction and global expansion, wanton intoxication and artistic clarity.

  • Unequal Pleasures: Electric Theatres (1908) Ltd. and the Early Film Exhibition Business in London
    Unequal Pleasures ©Luke McKernan 2006 Unequal Pleasures: Electric Theatres (1908) Ltd. and the early film exhibition business in London Luke McKernan Paper given at the Emergence of the Film Industry in Britain conference, University of Reading Business School, 29/30 June 2006 Time and money are unequal pleasures. Industrialism is biased toward producing goods rather than leisure. Gary Cross, Time and Money (1993) 1 This talk was first conceived of in a Starbucks just off Oxford Street, while taking a break from a busy day and contemplating the nature of public and private time. For the record, I had a venti cappuccino with carrot cake on the side. But let me take you back to the London of a hundred years ago. In 1903 the writer Walter Besant surveyed the state of theatrical entertainment for London’s working class districts. In this era just before the rise of the cinema, ‘the working man’s theatre’ as it came to be known, Besant saw a cultural desert: huge and populous areas of the city with little or no local theatrical entertainment to sustain them: As regards the working man’s theatrical tastes, they lean, so far as they go, to the melodrama; but as a matter of fact there are great masses of working people who never go to the theatre at all. If you think of it, there are so few theatres accessible that they cannot go often. For instance, there are for the accommodation of the West-end and the visitors to London some thirty theatres, and these are nearly always kept running; but for the densely populous districts of Islington, Somers Town, Pentonville, and Clerkenwell, combined, there are only two; for Hoxton and Haggerston, there is only one; for the vast region of Marylebone and Paddington, only one; for Whitechapel, ‘and her daughters,’ two; for Shoreditch and Bethnal Green, one, for Southwark and Blackfriars, one; for the towns of Hampstead, Highgate, Camden Town, Kentish Town, Stratford, Bow, Bromley, Bermondsey, Camberwell, Kensington, or Deptford, not one.

Ele a conduziu com destreza para dentro do estabelecimento indicado e a levou até uma mesa de canto com tampo de mármore. – Perfeito – Tommy afirmou, satisfeito, enquanto se sentava. – Não podia ser melhor. – Por que é que essa obsessão pela vida singela tomou conta de você? – quis saber Tuppence. – Você vê as coisas, Watson, mas não as observa. Agora, o que eu gostaria mesmo de saber é se alguma dessas donzelas arrogantes faria a gentileza de nos ver. Esplêndido, ela flutua em nossa direção.

  • Mortimer Street
    DRAFT CHAPTER 26 Mortimer Street In its original form, as shown on John Prince’s 1719 plan for the Cavendish– Harley estate, Mortimer Street extended from Cavendish Square to Wells Street. Taking its name from the Earl of Oxford’s second title Earl Mortimer, the street was built up from the mid 1730s, following the demolition of the Boarded House, which stood close to its path near the junction with Wells Street (see page ###). The smarter Cavendish Square end, cut off by the creation of Regent Street, was renamed Cavendish Place in 1859 and is separately discussed on page ###. Beyond Wells Street, the eastern portion of present-day Mortimer Street was originally developed as Charles Street, part of the Berners estate, and named after the landowner William Berners’s son and heir. The Middlesex Hospital was built there in 1755–7, house-building following on from 1759. This somewhat lowly street was almost entirely merged with Mortimer Street in 1879 – a very short section east of Cleveland Street, in St Pancras parish, became part of Goodge Street at the same time. Besides shifting Mortimer Street’s identity, these changes of name involved general renumbering of the houses, so that confusion over nineteenth-century addresses easily arises. The short side-street Nassau Street, also described in this chapter, was laid out in the 1760s as part of the Berners estate development, under the name Suffolk Street. Development of the central section of Mortimer Street was mostly undertaken by three individuals responsible for much building in south-east Marylebone – the digger and brickmaker Thomas Huddle, carpenter John Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT Lane, and plasterer William Wilton.
