Barbara Elaine Harrington PhD June 2016 1 ABSTRACT Walking, landscape and visual culture: how walkers engage with and conceive of the landscapes in which they walk. Walking in the countryside is an increasingly popular pursuit in Britain. Much previous research within the social sciences has tended to concentrate on the physiological benefits, barriers or facilitators to walking. This thesis explores particular walkers’ complex motivations for and modes of walking, their individual engagements with certain types of (northern) landscapes and the significance of specific kinds of visual images, traditions and wider practices of looking.

  • Litfest 2015 Senhouse Roman Museum Friday 13 – Sunday 15 November
    Tribal Voices LitFest 2015 Senhouse Roman Museum Friday 13 – Sunday 15 November Patron of the festival: Melvyn Bragg, Lord Bragg of Wigton 1 2 Now in its eighth year the Maryport Literary Festival is an initiative of, and takes place at the Senhouse Roman Museum. The festival is unique in having a theme inspired by the internationally significant collections that can be discovered at the Museum. This year the inspiration for the theme is the Museum’s collection of native sculpture. This collection includes a small, enigmatic representation of a native armed warrior god believed to be Belatucadrus. This deity appears to have been popular in the Hadrian’s Wall frontier zone. He is depicted naked, brandishing sword and shield with horns sprouting from his forehead. Experiencing the collection is an opportunity to get close to our own tribal past. Tribal Voices explores aspects of tribal identity, how ancestral voices have influenced our culture now and in the past. These ancestral voices are heard from the shepherds and huntsmen of Cumbria, the tribes of Africa and Canada, and our own Early Medieval past. The audience can expect an eclectic mix in a festival that host, Angela Locke, describes as ‘boutique’. The festival is special in its opportunity to interact with the speakers, who are very generous with sharing insights into the creative process. This year the festival will be launched by Melvyn Bragg, Lord Bragg of Wigton who will be talking about his new book inspired by the Peasants' Revolt of 1381. Lord Bragg is also the patron of the festival.

  • 4 Gender and Nation: Debatable Lands and Passable Boundaries
    4 Gender and nation: debatable lands and passable boundaries AILEEN CHRISTIANSON ‘Debatable lands’ and ‘passable boundaries’: both concepts are emblem- atic of the kind of inevitably shifting, multi-dimensional perspectives that are found in any consideration of nation and gender.1 Homi K. Bhabha writes of the ‘ambivalent margin of the nation-space’ and ‘the ambivalent, antagonistic perspective of nation as narration’ (1990a: 4). These ‘ambivalent margins’ are contained in the Scottish metaphor of the Debatable Land. Originally the term was for that area ‘holdin to be Debateable Lands betwixt the twa nations of Scotland and England’, and very specifically defined as ‘now forming the Parishes of Canonbie in Scotland and Kirk Andrews on Esk in England’ (Carlyle 1868: appen- dix 33, 1). It became first a term for the Scottish/English borders as a whole, which were fought over and consequently neither static nor entirely definable. Its subsequent manifestation is as a metaphor for any borderline state or idea.2 Women’s writing in particular is often assessed in terms of borders and margins that provide those tropes of liminality used to point up a fluidity and an ambiguity identified with the position of women in society. Maggie Humm, for example, adopts such terms in ways that echo the Scots concept of debatable land: The border is not only a question of place which assumes some one dimensional literary plane without hierarchy or class but of difference, since in looking at literary borders we find asymmetry, absence and marginalisation … Border women are not decentred fragmented indivi- duals but writers who have begun to cohere a core identity by entering the transitional space between self and other.

  • Finished by Another: Co-Authorship and Self-Completion in Castle Dor
    Finished by Another: co-authorship and self-completion in Castle Dor “It is a curious coincidence that no poet, or shall we call him investigator, has ever lived to conclude this particular story. His work has always been finished by another1” - Monsieur Ledru, Castle Dor, page 70 - 1 It is interesting to note this quote is not found in Q’s original manuscript, meaning it must be one of the few that du Maurier inserted afterwards. She clearly enjoyed the idea of inevitability and fate surging through the text, perhaps also a force she believed compelled her to finish the novel. 1 Castle Dor novel on Castle Dore plaque. Q Fund collection. In 1925, Sir Arthur Quiller-Couch began writing Castle Dor. He was working from his study, overlooking Fowey Harbour to the domed fields beyond, excitedly caught up in a mixture of legend and fantasy following his discovery of ‘Mark’s Gate’ on an old map. King Mark of Cornwall, immortalised in the Arthurian legend of Tristan and Iseult, was a fascinating figure for Q who felt embedded in his local landscape on both an emotional and literary level, and rewriting the tale was an opportunity to indulge in this. Castle Dor, however, remained unfinished when Q passed away in 1944. Whether the manuscript was abandoned because it was considered below standard, whether it was due to his failing eyesight, or whether he was overcome with grief at the death of his only son, Bevil, from pneumonia after the First World War is a question left unanswered, as Q himself left few written clues about his decision.
