Her father was the Nobel prize-winning biochemist and Trinity don, Frederick Gowland Hopkins, and her mother, Jessie Ann, introduced her to museums. After an early declaration that she wanted to be an archaeologist, in 1929 she was one of the first to read for the new Cambridge degree of archaeology and anthropology. She left Newnham College with a first-class degree and an invitation to dig with Dorothy Garrod at Mount Carmel in Palestine. Her experience there, exposing a Neanderthal skeleton, had a marked effect on her, and she returned to this discovery in her prose and poetry. By then she had met another promising archaeologist, Christopher Hawkes, both working on a Roman site near Colchester. In 1933 they married and began what appeared to be a union of mutual interests, with a home in North London. Their only child, Nicolas, was born in 1937, and their first book together, Prehistoric Britain, was published in ​ ​ 1943.

  • An Inspector Calls – Education Resource Pack
    An Inspector Calls – Education Resource Pack The Writer JB Priestley was born in Bradford in 1894 and served throughout the First World War before going to Cambridge to study History, Political Science and English. He began writing and selling his work while still a student. He settled in London in 1922 and began a long career as novelist, playwright, essayist and critic. He wrote three novels in the twenties before he had his first major success with his warm-hearted show business story The Good Companions (1929), which has been adapted for the stage (a version was produced at Theatre by the Lake in 2002), television, radio and the cinema. Twenty-eight novels followed, including Angel Pavement (1930), Let the People Sing (1938), Bright Day (1946), Festival at Farbridge (1951) and The Image Men (1968). His first play was his own adaptation of The Good Companions in 1930 and it was followed by 41 others, including Dangerous Corner, Time and the Conways, When We Are Married, Johnson Over Jordan, An Inspector Calls and The Linden Tree, all written within a prolific 20-year period. Priestley wrote 63 other books of essays and criticism (including works on Dickens and Chekhov) and English Journey, his 1943 account of his roamings through England when he observed growing social inequalities during the Depression. Its influence remains almost 80 years on. During the Second World War, his Postscript broadcasts for the BBC were very popular; they appealed to listeners needing words of comfort and sanity at a time of turmoil and danger. Priestley famously reflected on the beauty of the English landscape, the Dunkirk evacuation and a pie steaming in a shop window.

The prospect of leading such a large society with such wide interests was somewhat daunting but it has proved to be a period never lacking in interest or surprise, perhaps more so than might have been expected. The major decisions we have made in this time have been dictated by the changed economic situation. At the last Annual General Meeting we approved raising the subscription by a modest amount. This came into ef- fect on 1 January this year and I urge any of you who, like me, forgot to amend your bank Standing Or- der to do so as soon as possible! I do hope that members will feel able to continue to support the Society for the future despite the financial pressure we all feel. The most far-reaching effect of national policy came unexpectedly in the late autumn of 2009 when we received six months notice to leave our Headquarters in the Coastal Centre, Ventnor.

  • British Literature in Transition, 1940-1960: Postwar
    BRITISH LITERATURE IN TRANSITION, 1940-1960: POSTWAR 'Postwar' is both a period and a state of mind, a sensibility comprised of hope, fear and fatigue in which British society and its writers paradoxically yearned both for political transformation and a nostalgic reinstatement of past securities. From the Labour landslide victory of 1945 to the emergence of the Cold War and the humiliation of Suez in 1956, this was a period of radical political transformation in Britain and beyond, but these changes resisted literary assimilation. Arguing that writing and history do not map straightforwardly one onto the other, and that the postwar cannot easily be fitted into the explanato1y paradigms of modernism or postmodernism, this book offers a more nuanced recognition of what was written and read in the period. From wartime radio writing to 1950s travellers, Cold War poetry to radical theatre, magazine cultures to popular fiction, this volume examines important debates that animated postwar Britain. GILL PLAIN is Professor of English at the University of St Andrews. She has research interests in British literature and culture of the 1940s, war writing, crime fiction, British cinema, feminist theory and gender studies. Her publications include Women '.r Fiction ofthe Second World War (1996), Twentieth-Century Crime Fiction (2001), John Mills and British Cinema: Masculinity, Identity and Nation (2006) and Literature of the r94os: War, Postwar and 'Peace' (2013). She has also edited a number of volumes including A History ofFeminist Literary Criticism (co-edited with Susan Sellers, 2007) and Scotland and the First World War: Myth, Memory and the Legacy ofBannockburn (2017).

B. Priestley’s An Inspector Calls Field Guide Remy Bumppo, December 2013 John Boynton Priestley: A Biography Samantha Bauer, Artistic Intern of Remy Bumppo J. B. Priestley was an accomplished English novelist, playwright and speaker, achieving widespread popularity and critical success in his time. Even today, theatre companies such as Remy Bumppo eagerly take on his works because, to put it simply, they are beloved and reliably entertaining. CHILDHOOD Long before his literary accomplishments, Priestley came from humble roots. Born September 13, 1884, John Priestley would be the only child of Jonathan Priestley, a schoolmaster, and Emma Holt, a mill girl. Despite the early passing of his mother in 1886, Priestley enjoyed a relatively peaceful youth in a small suburb of Bradford, West Yorkshire, England.
