The focus on the current work is changing according to the situation, as protecting t he autonomy and integrity of journalism, strenthening solidariy among members, material interests, proper conditons for prefessional development…. In 2004, the main objective was to negotiate the amendments to the collective agreement and that the employers were prepared to accept that( just to start negotiate), the general strike was required. Recently we intend to protect the journalists ' copyright, so we have set up an association. The situation is forcing us to look for new forms of social security , one of them may be cooperatives. Born in Ljubljana, capital of Slovenia, I finished secondary school and studied journalism and sociology. As a student I participated in various media (student radio, fashion magazines) and in the Institute for public o pinion. I started to work as proofreader in a daily newspaper, became its local correspondent and was fond of making photo reportages. -
The Manchester Observer: Biography of a Radical Newspaper
i i i i The Manchester Observer: Biography of a Radical Newspaper ROBERT POOLE, UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL LANCASHIRE Abstract The newly digitised Manchester Observer (1818–22) was England’s leading rad- ical newspaper at the time of the Peterloo meeting of August 1819, in which it played a central role. For a time it enjoyed the highest circulation of any provincial newspaper, holding a position comparable to that of the Chartist Northern Star twenty years later and pioneering dual publication in Manchester and London. Its columns provide insights into Manchester’s notoriously secretive local government and policing and into the labour and radical movements of its turbulent times. Rich materials in the Home Oce papers in the National Archives reveal much about the relationship between radicals in London and in the provinces, and show how local magistrates conspired with government to hound the radical press in the north as prosecutions in London ran into trouble. This article also sheds new light on the founding of the Manchester Guardian, which endured as the Observer’s successor more by avoiding its disasters than by following its example. Despite the imprisonment of four of its main editors and proprietors the Manchester Observer battled on for ve years before sinking in calmer water for lack of news. Keywords: Peterloo; press; newspapers; radicalism; Manchester; Guardian London has been called the strong hold of the liberty of the press; but Manchester is assuredly the centre and strong hold of the Parliamentary Reformers. (Manchester Observer, 1 September 1821) Early in 2017 the John Rylands Library accepted into its collections two bound volumes: the only complete set of the Manchester Observer (1818–22), the radical predecessor of the more famous Manchester Guardian. -
3N ^Emorlam. THOMAS HICK, B.A., B.SC
Downloaded from http://pygs.lyellcollection.org/ at University of St Andrews on May 5, 2015 234 3n ^emorlam. THOMAS HICK, B.A., B.SC. (LOND.), A.L.S. Born May 5th, 1840; Died July 31st, 1896. Only a few months ago we chronicled the decease of a great Yorkshire Pala3obotanist; to-day, alas ! we deplore the death of another distinguished Botanist and Honorary Member of our Society through the death of Thomas Hick, B.A., B.Sc, A.L.S., who finished his course at the residence of his eldest son, Dr. Herbert Hick, at Laisterdyke, on the 31st of July last. In early life our friend lost, through a severe accident, several fingers of his right hand. His indomitable spirit, however, struggled against his adverse surroundings, how successfully only those who have seen him, with deft skill, cutting beautiful sections of plants and stems by hand, can judge. Possibly this accident turned his atten• tion from mechanical to literary and scientific pursuits, and, as often happens in life, what at first appeared an unqualified misfortune turned out a boon. Educated at The Royal Lancaster School, Leeds, Thomas Hick rose from the position of Scholar to the post of Master, and by private and strenuous study graduated in the first division as Bachelor of Arts and Science at the London University. At this time he was much engaged, teaching Mathematics, Botany, and Biology to the Science Students at Mechanics' Institutes at Leeds, Bradford, and elsewhere. In 1876, a Science Master was wanted at Pannal College, Harro• gate. The post was applied for, obtained, and held, with growing respect from the Principal and with the warm affection of the pupils, until 1886, when be was appointed Assistant Lecturer and Demon• strator in Botany at Owens College, Manchester. -

Musical Networks in Early Victorian Manchester R M Johnson Phd 2020
Musical Networks in Early Victorian Manchester R M Johnson PhD 2020 Musical Networks in Early Victorian Manchester RACHEL MARGARET JOHNSON A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Awarded for a Collaborative Programme of Research at the Royal Northern College of Music by Manchester Metropolitan University 2020 Abstract My dissertation demonstrates how a new and distinctive musical culture developed in the industrialising society of early Victorian Manchester. It challenges a number of existing narratives relating to the history of music in nineteenth-century Britain, and has implications for the way we understand the place of music in other industrial societies and cities. The project is located at the nexus between musicology, cultural history and social history, and draws upon ideas current in urban studies, ethnomusicology and anthropology. Contrary to the oft-repeated claim that it was Charles Hallé who ‘brought music to Manchester’ when he arrived in 1848, my archival research reveals a vast quantity and variety of music-making and consumption in Manchester in the 1830s and 1840s. The interconnectedness of the many strands of this musical culture is inescapable, and it results in my adoption of ‘networks’ as an organising principle. Tracing how the networks were formed, developed and intertwined reveals just how embedded music was in the region’s social and civic life. Ultimately, music emerges as an agent of particular power in the negotiation and transformation of the concerns inherent within the new industrial city. The dissertation is structured as a series of interconnected case studies, exploring areas as diverse as the music profession, glee and catch clubs, the Hargreaves Choral Society’s programme notes, Mechanics’ Institutions and the early Victorian public music lecture. -

All My Life Till I Left Home, I Was Called a Dirty Dago, a Greasy Greek
THE GUARDIAN Saturday February 15 1986 George Coulouris was born in Salford in 1903. But he recovered sufficiently to become a distinguished actor, first appearing on the stage in Rusholme, in Manchester in 1926, and same year playing in Outward Bound at the Old Vic. He spent twenty years in the United States, was nominated for an Oscar, appeared in Citizen Kane; he arrived with only $250 in his pocket, and ended up dining with President Roosevelt. Now he's living in London — but a splendid exhibition of pictures in Salford has reminded him of his own boyhood there.
