  • Folk for Art's Sake: English Folk Music in the Mainstream Milieu
    Volume 4 (2009) ISSN 1751-7788 Folk for Art’s Sake: English Folk Music in the Mainstream Milieu Simon Keegan-Phipps University of Sheffield The English folk arts are currently undergoing a considerable resurgence; 1 practices of folk music, dance and drama that explicitly identify themselves as English are the subjects of increasing public interest throughout England. The past five years have seen a manifold increase in the number of professional musical acts that foreground their Englishness; for the first time since the last 'revival period' of the 1950s and 60s, it is easier for folk music agents to secure bookings for these English acts in England than Scottish and Irish (Celtic) bands. Folk festivals in England are experiencing greatly increased popularity, and the profile of the genre has also grown substantially beyond the boundaries of the conventional 'folk scene' contexts: Seth Lakeman received a Mercury Music Awards nomination in 2006 for his album Kitty Jay; Jim Moray supported Will Young’s 2003 UK tour, and his album Sweet England appeared in the Independent’s ‘Cult Classics’ series in 2007; in 2003, the morris side Dogrose Morris appeared on the popular television music show Later with Jools Holland, accompanied by the high-profile fiddler, Eliza Carthy;1 and all-star festival-headliners Bellowhead appeared on the same show in 2006.2 However, the expansion in the profile and presence of English folk music has 2 not been confined to the realms of vernacular, popular culture: On 20 July 2008, BBC Radio 3 hosted the BBC Proms

  • I Wanna Be Yours - John Cooper Clarke ​
    Edexcel English Literature GCSE Poetry Collection: Relationships i wanna be yours - John Cooper Clarke ​ This work by PMThttps://bit.ly/pmt-edu-cc Education is licensed under https://bit.ly/pmt-ccCC BY-NC-ND 4.0 https://bit.ly/pmt-cc https://bit.ly/pmt-edu https://bit.ly/pmt-cc I WANNA BE YOURS ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ John Cooper Clarke Brief Summary The poem features an unknown speaker addressing their lover, who is also unknown to the ​ ​ reader. The speaker asks to be let into every aspect of their lover’s life by listing the different mundane, everyday objects they want to replace. As well as asking to be needed and adored by their lover, the speaker demonstrates their devotion to their lover and the consistency of their affection. The exact relationship between the speaker and the object of their affection is unknown, but it is clear that the speaker wants to be closer to the person they are addressing. The poem is full of simplistic language, word play, and innuendo. Synopsis ● The speaker is talking directly to an unknown subject and we never hear their response to the speaker ● The speaker asks their lover if they will “let” them take the place of various everyday ​ ​ objects in their life ● The speaker makes it clear that their lover is in control ● The only thing the speaker desires is to belong to their lover ● The list of mundane objects continues as the speaker makes it clear that they want to make their lover’s life better and be with them everywhere ● The final stanza finishes with a grander, more metaphysical (deep) image than the mundane objects previously used to show the extent of the speaker’s devotion ● The speaker concludes by clarifying they want no one else other than the lover they are addressing in this poem Context John Cooper Clarke (1949 - present) John Cooper Clarke was born in Salford, Lancashire, in the north of England.

  • Shakespeare on Film, Video & Stage
    William Shakespeare on Film, Video and Stage Titles in bold red font with an asterisk (*) represent the crème de la crème – first choice titles in each category. These are the titles you’ll probably want to explore first. Titles in bold black font are the second- tier – outstanding films that are the next level of artistry and craftsmanship. Once you have experienced the top tier, these are where you should go next. They may not represent the highest achievement in each genre, but they are definitely a cut above the rest. Finally, the titles which are in a regular black font constitute the rest of the films within the genre. I would be the first to admit that some of these may actually be worthy of being “ranked” more highly, but it is a ridiculously subjective matter.

  • Performing Corpo-Realities in Shakespeare's Late Romances 2017
    Action Bodies / Acting Bodies: Performing Corpo-Realities in Shakespeare's Late Romances Von der Philosophischen Fakultät der Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover zur Erlangung des Grades einer Doktorin der Philosophie (Dr. phil.) genehmigte Dissertation von Eve-Marie Oesterlen geboren am 24. April 1974 in München 2017 Referentin: Prof. Dr. Liselotte Glage Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Rainer Emig Tag der Promotion: 24. November 2016 Zusammenfassung Ausgangspunkt dieser Arbeit ist die Annahme, dass das Spätwerk Shakespeares sich durchgängig und intensiv damit auseinandersetzt, „was es heißt zu wissen, dass andere, dass wir Körper haben“ (Stanley Cavell). Untersucht wird die Bedeutung, die ein solcher corporeal turn für die Rezeption von drei der von der Shakespeare-Forschung bisher eher vernachlässigten Romanzen hat: Pericles, The Winter’s Tale und Cymbeline. Das Augenmerk der Analyse richtet sich hierbei insbesondere auf die Art und Weise, in der sich Repräsentationen des handelnden Körpers im doppelten Sinne (action body/acting body) zur dichten textuellen und theatralischen Selbstreflexion der Stücke verhalten. Hierbei rekurriert die Analyse auf kritische Ansätze, die sich aus der neueren kulturwissenschaftlichen Diskurswende in Bezug auf Körper und Performanz ergeben. Shakespeare, Körper, Performanz Abstract Proceeding from the premise that in his late plays Shakespeare continuously engages with the question of “what it is to know that others, that we, have bodies” (Stanley Cavell), this thesis examines the significance of such a ‘corporeal turn’ for the dramatic analysis of three of Shakespeare’s late romances: Pericles, The Winter's Tale, and Cymbeline. Following in the wake of critical approaches that have emerged from a new focus of interest in the body and performance, this thesis supplements a reading of the playtext with a reading of the text in performance to illustrate how representations of the performing body are bound up with and shaped by the plays’ intense textual and theatrical self-reflection.

To decline under such circum- stances, he said, would have been “snotty.” Don’t More importantly, he conceives of his MBE as recognition he shares with the whole Call Me folk scene. “I’ve been put at the front of a very, very long queue of people who work hard to make a folk revival and a folk scene,” he said. Sir! “All those people who organized clubs for nothing and paid you out of their own pocket, and fed you and put you on the train the next morning, and put you to bed when you were drunk! What [the government is] doing, is taking notice of the fact that something’s going on for the last more than 40 years. It’s called the folk revival. They’ve ignored it for that long. And someone has suddenly taken notice, and that’s okay. A bit of profile isn’t gonna hurt us — and I say us, the plural, for the folk scene — isn’t gonna hurt us at all.” In the same year as Carthy’s moment of recognition, something happened that did hurt the folk scene. Lal Waterson, Carthy’s sister-in- law, bandmate, near neighbor and close friend, died of cancer.
