  • Don Jorge and the School for the Poor: George Lawrence (1830–1894)
    BRETHREN HISTORICAL REVIEW 12: 49–72 Don Jorge and the School for the Poor: George Lawrence (1830–1894) Joaquim Campistrón Téllez and Christina Lawrence1 Reports of nineteenth-century Brethren missionary work can leave readers in English wondering about the cliff-hanger of Robert Chapman taking William Gould and George Lawrence to Spain ‘whom he left there’.2 Answers may be found by the readers becoming visitors to the small town of Caldes de Montbui in Catalonia, on the east coast of Spain, where the municipal cemetery has two gravestones of historical significance: one commemorates the life and work of George Lawrence, who first arrived in that town in 1873; the other is a marble stone memorial to civil war casualties of the same year. Yet another permanent reminder is one of the town’s old buildings, known as Casa de les Trabucades [House of the Troubles] which still bears the marks of those hostilities. We now know that George Lawrence came to the spa town of Caldes3 after reports appeared in the newspapers, including The Times, on the events of the third civil war between Carlists and Republicans. The Scottish Bible Society (SBS), one of the main organisations supporting his work, gave the following account: BARCELONA.—Writing in December, Mr. Lawrence refers to the fact that the city is under martial law, and adds that the only group allowed to gather is that which constantly surrounds the [Bible] carriage. Mr. Lawrence has now liberty to enter the prisons and hospitals, into which he delights to carry the gospel of freedom and salvation.

This document was designed as a tool for assessing and guiding water management in Spain. Although Spain’s future water policy is outlined in the conclusions, the points mentioned refer only to quantitative aspects of water resources without considering the issue of quality. Nonetheless, the issue of river, reservoir, lake and groundwater pollution is taken into account in the assessment section. Amongst the problems related to water quality, the White Paper notes, among others, problems related with Directives 91/271/EEC and 91/676/EEC. A brief summary of the main issues addressed is provided below. Surface water and diffuse pollution. In general, diffuse pollution produced by agricultural and livestock raising activities (e.g.

  • World on Fire
    Biographical Notes World on Fire Peter Bowker Writer, World on Fire MASTERPIECE fans remember Peter Bowker’s impassioned adaptation of Wuthering Heights from 2009, which captured Emily Brontë’s masterpiece in all its complexity. With World on Fire he has created a plot with even more twists, turns, and memorable characters, centered on the chaotic events at the outset of World War II. Bowker has been an established screenwriter in the U.K since penning scripts for Casualty in the early 1990s. Since then, he has written for many long-running series such as Where the Heart Is and Clocking Off. His original work has included Undercover Heart; Flesh and Blood, for which he won Best Writer at the RTS Awards; Blackpool, which was awarded BANFF Film Festival Best Mini-Series and Global Television Grand Prize; and Occupation, which was awarded Best Drama Serial at the BAFTA Awards, in addition to Best Short-Form Drama at the WGGB Awards and another RTS Best Writer Award. He has since written Eric and Ernie and Marvellous. Both productions have won prestigious awards, including a Best Drama BAFTA for Marvellous, which became the most popular BBC2 single drama of the last 20 years. Most recently he has written an adaptation of John Lanchester’s novel Capital and two series of the acclaimed The A Word. Julia Brown Lois Bennett, World on Fire Driven to escape her cheating lover and dysfunctional family, Julia Brown’s character in World on Fire finds a wartime role that exploits her remarkable singing talent. Luckily, Brown herself is a gifted vocalist and sang much of the soundtrack that accompanies the episodes.

  • Gemma González E3E IES Icaria Primer Recorregut: Pedralbes I Zona Universitària Descripció Del Recorregut
    Recorreguts per Barcelona Gemma González E3E IES Icaria Primer recorregut: Pedralbes i Zona universitària Descripció del recorregut Hem començat el recorregut a la parada de metro Maria Cristina. Al sortir a la dreta, podem veure una escultura modernista i un carrer molt ample i amb bastant trànsit (l’Avinguda Diagonal). Al nostre davant, hi ha un gran Corte Inglés. A la nostra esquerra, podem veure l’edifici central de La Caixa, de color negre i rodó. També veiem diferents edificis amb oficines, petits restaurants i bars. A la dreta, hi han pisos per a viure i bastants bancs i fonts. Observem que el carrer està molt net. Caminant per l’avinguda, direcció Llobregat, arribem a la plaça Pius XII. És una plaça molt ample i rodona, i al centre es trobava una espècie de petit parc (Uns quants bancs, arbres i gespa). Hem pujat per l’Av. Pedralbes fins a arribar a la cantonada Manel Girona. En aquest carrer, ja hem notat com les cases son molt més residencials, els jardins i els carrers estan molt cuidats i molt nets. Els edificis que hi ha als costats con rectangulars i quadrats, amb molts balcons amples i uns jardins particulars molt grans. Curiosament, podem apreciar que hi ha dos portes: una per als residents de les cases i una altra més petita per al “Servicio” (Servei). Arribem a la cantonada Manel Girona.Trobem una porta amb un drac de ferro al centre. Es un drac fet per Antoni Gaudí (1852- 1926). Creiem que aquesta porta es la entrada al jardí Botànic de la Universitat de Barcelona.
