  • The Carlyle Society Papers
    THE CARLYLE SOCIETY SESSION 2011-2012 OCCASIONAL PAPERS 24 • Edinburgh 2011 1 2 President’s Letter With another year’s papers we approach an important landmark in Carlyle studies. A full programme for the Society covers the usual wide range (including our mandated occasional paper on Burns), and we will also make room for one of the most important of Thomas’s texts, the Bible. 2012 sees a milestone in the publication of volume 40 of the Carlyle Letters, whose first volumes appeared in 1970 (though the project was a whole decade older in the making). There will be a conference (10-12 July) of academic Carlyle specialists in Edinburgh to mark the occasion – part of the wider celebrations that the English Literature department will be holding to celebrate its own 250th anniversary of Hugh Blair’s appointment to the chair of Rhetoric, making Edinburgh the first recognisable English department ever. The Carlyle Letters have been an important part of the research activity of the department for nearly half a century, and there will also be a public lecture later in November (when volume 40 itself should have arrived in the country from the publishers in the USA). As part of the conference there will be a Thomas Green lecture, and members of the Society will be warmly invited to attend this and the reception which follows. Details are in active preparation, and the Society will be kept informed as the date draws closer. Meantime work on the Letters is only part of the ongoing activity, on both sides of the Atlantic, to make the works of both Carlyles available, and to maintain the recent burst of criticism which is helping make their importance in the Victorian period more and more obvious.

  • George Eliot and the Mill on the Floss
    PART III: George Eliot and The Mill on the Floss 189 CHAPTER EIGHT George Eliot and Her Suitors: the “Hatched Chick” Becomes a Rooster The story of The Mill on the Floss, which is very much a story about the emergence of Marian Evans/George Eliot as a professional author, actually began a few years before the appearance of that pivotal book with the anonymous publication of Eliot’s first novel (really a series of novellas) in the pages of Blackwood’s Edinburgh Magazine (Maga). Lewes first submitted Evans’s work to the venerable Scottish publisher, John Blackwood, on 6 November 1856, when Evans was still editing John Chapman’s Westminster Review.1 The submission was “The Sad Fortunes of the Reverend Amos Barton,” the first of three novella-length sketches that would eventually form the whole of Scenes of Clerical Life. Of this first sketch Lewes boasted to Blackwood that “such humour, pathos, vivid presentation and nice observation have not been exhibited (in this style) since the ‘Vicar of Wakefield’— and in consequence of that opinion I feel quite pleased in negotiating the matter with you.”2 During this first interaction on Evans’s behalf, Lewes aimed to convince Blackwood that this unknown author was someone whose work was worth adding to 1 In addition to a long essay entitled “Worldliness and Otherworldliness: the Poet Young,” Eliot would write a segment called “History, Biography, Voyages, and Travels,” as well as her standard “Belles Lettres” section for her final contributions to the Westminster Review, 67 (January 1857).

The Martineau Society’s Conference in July, 2016, has no doubt contributed to enhancing the visitor figures. It was, of course, held in Birmingham (and about 500 metres from a grammar school attended many decades ago by your editor. The school has since disappeared under the major road development of Broad Street, Birmingham). It certainly impresses the visitor as a big, bustling city Birmingham is again constantly renewing itself with new buildings and highway works just as it must have done in the nineteenth century as it grew to be the largest conurbation outside of London.

Reviewed by Stella Pratt-Smith, University of Oxford There are few more pervasive metaphors in our conceptualizations of the human than the industrial imaginary explored by Tamara Ketabgian in The Lives of Machines. The “fuel” of food saves us from “running out of steam” or becoming “broken” components within an “overheated” economy; these metaphors are akin to Ketabgian’s example from Charlotte Brontë’s Shirley (1849) in which Robert Moore exclaims that “the machinery of all my nature, the whole enginery of this human mill, the boiler which I take to be the heart, is fit to burst” (1).

  • An Investigation Into the Claims That Prime Minister James Callaghan's
    Dispelling the myths: An investigation into the claims that Prime Minister James Callaghan’s Ruskin College speech was an epoch marking development in secondary education in general and for pre-vocational education in particular. by KEVIN JOHN JERVIS A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY School of Education. The University of Birmingham. Dec 2010. University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. 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. ABSTRACT The origins and developments of pre-vocational education are traditionally traced back to Prime Minister James Callaghan’s speech on 18th October 1976 at Ruskin College, near Oxford. An assertion of this study is that this is a fallacy, with evidence of the existence of pre-vocational education dating back many years before this date. Further it is contended that Callaghan’s speech was not the catalyst for change in aspects of secondary education that many have suggested. The speech was neither a deliberate attempt by Callaghan to challenge the accepted modus operandi of the educational establishment nor an effort to raise standards. On the contrary, this study will argue that Callaghan’s intervention in education was a conscious attempt to distract the attention of commentators away from the worsening social and economic conditions within the U.K, which Callaghan had inherited from Harold Wilson.
