  • 'A Deconstructed Shrine': Locating Absence and Relocating Identity In
    Stephan Laqué ‘A deconstructed shrine’: Locating Absence and Relocating Identity in Rodinsky’s Room (2000) This essay considers the post-Freudian concept of the crypt as a spatial frame for the construction of hybrid identities. It traces the topography of the crypt in the Museum of Immigration and Diversity at 19 Princelet Street and in Iain Sinclair and Rachel Lichtenstein’s Rodinsky’s Room, which is based on the disappearance of David Rodinsky from his room above the synagogue at 19 Princelet Street. While Lichtenstein seeks to uncover and document the history of Rodinsky in order to construct a Jewish identity for herself, Sinclair’s narrative respects the elusive nature of Rodinsky and ensures the room remains ‘empty’ and unfixed. Even as it elicits widely heterogeneous readings and approaches, the crypt emerges as a structure which resists appropriation and preserves the alterity of the other within the self, a structure which is pertinent not only to buildings and texts, but also to societies and cultures. 1. A Museum of Immigration and Diversity? The backdrop for this essay is Spitalfields, Tower Hamlets, in London’s East End. For centuries immigrants on their way from the docks of London into the centre of the city have settled in this area. In the late 17th century, Huguenots fleeing religious persecution at the hands of Louis XIV came. King Charles II offered sanctuary to the French protestants and Spitalfields came to be known as ‘Petty France’. During the 18th century, Catholics from Ireland arrived and were followed in the latter half of the 19th century by Jewish immigrants from all parts of Eastern Europe driven by pogroms in their home countries.

  • Fruits of the Forest
    FRUITS OF THE FOREST The desirabilities, possibilities and practicalities of a Waltham Forest Local Food Scheme Report by Ru Litherland for OrganicLea Community Growers, March 2003 OrganicLea acknowledge the support of Groundwork Trust in the preparation of this report Summary of Report This report aims to explore the desirabilities, possibilities and practicalities of a Waltham Forest Local Food Scheme. In doing so, it will first make the case for local food schemes, in general and for the London Borough of Waltham Forest in particular. The benefits – social, environmental, health, economic and cultural - will be briefly noted, as will the extent to which greater awareness of these benefits has led to increasing interest in healthy, sustainable and local food nationwide. The report will then focus on the main areas of existing local food production in Waltham Forest, efforts to promote local food, plus existing and potential demand from local people. The question of how a local food scheme would operate is then addressed. Various models of distribution, and of organisational structure, are considered in the light of specific local circumstances, and some recommendations made The issue of organic certification is raised, and an alternative local certification symbol counterposed. Legal ramifications of a local food scheme are given due consideration. In concluding, some suggestions are made for those wishing to further pursue the project of a Waltham Forest Local Food Scheme. 1. Introduction: Local Food Schemes and their Benefits To begin with, it is necessary to hone the definition of “local food economy”, “local food schemes” and other references to “local food” to be encountered below.
