WRITING BRITISH NATIONAL HISTORY IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY Mary Ruth Salinsky Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD King’s College University of London ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 1 I would like to thank all those who have helped and supported me during the writing of this thesis. Several academics read all or part of my work and made useful comments: Dr Michael Kandiah, Dr Peter Mandler, Dr Paul Readman, Dr John Seed and Professor John Tosh. Professor Leslie Howsam at the University of Windsor, Ontario, Canada, was generous in sharing her work in progress. I am particularly grateful to Professor Sir David Cannadine who read my work and gave me much very useful advice and with whom I had many stimulating discussions. Lastly my supervisor Professor Pat Thane was invaluable in guiding me through the research process, making many helpful comments and keeping me on track. I would also like to thank those historians whose work I studied who were kind enough to grant me interviews: Professor Jeremy Black, Sir Roy Strong, Professor Keith Robbins, and Professor Norman Davies. Professor Hugh Kearney kindly answered my questions by email and Professor John Harrison by phone. Their patience and generosity in sharing their views on their own work and on the state of writing British national history at the present time have been invaluable. I am grateful to all the archivists at the repositories I visited: Oxford University Press, Cambridge University Library, East Sussex Record Office, University College London, the British Library, Reading Special Collections, the National Archives, and the Royal Historical Society. My special thanks go to Ashley Schoppe, graduate intern at McFarlin Library University of Tulsa USA, where the archives of Andre Deutsch are deposited, who via email identified material I was interested in, photocopied and posted it to me. I have benefitted greatly from participation in the King’s College PhD history reading group, convened by Kath Sherit, where stimulating discussions and challenging questions helped me to clarify my thoughts. Friends and family also helped: Alison Appleby, Beatrice Clarke and Linda Hampson; my thanks to my daughter for help with formatting. I would particularly like to thank my husband who read many drafts, made many helpful critical comments and was always supportive and encouraging. My interest in historiography was first aroused in 1994 by Professor Janet Coleman, LSE, through her stimulating course on ‘Critical Problems in the History of Political Thought’ for the MSc in Political Theory. 2 DEDICATION This thesis is dedicated to my parents, Ruth and George Fasnacht, from whom I learnt to love history 3 WRITING BRITISH NATIONAL HISTORY IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY ABSTRACT Popular accounts of British history written around 1900 are very different from those written around 2000. There is no comprehensive study of the nature of this change. The popular narrative of England/Britain has been shaped by the nation’s role in the world, by contemporary historiographical approaches, and the different ways the British have thought about themselves and their nation. Popular, single author comprehensive syntheses of national history reveal assumptions about the character of the nation and the sort of stories that could convincingly be written about it at different times. These works are examined along with interviews of surviving historians and an examination of personal papers and publishers’ archives where possible. Under the impact of war, decolonisation, British nationalisms, the rise of social history and a new self-consciousness in historiography British history has become less Anglo-centric and the Empire is no longer central to the narrative. Historians integrated social and economic history more into their accounts. They were writing narratives that were more tentative, making the existence of multiple stories more explicit, providing more interpretation and attention to the significance of events. The accounts were less masculine but not much less white. Authors of popular British history were still predominantly white Oxbridge educated men. At the end of the century historians wrote livelier histories that were beginning to exploit media other than print. The narrative was less confident in its conclusion, but historians still asserted their belief in the value of British national history. 4 WRITING BRITISH NATIONAL HISTORY IN THE TWENTIETH CENTURY CONTENTS Page Chronological Bibliography of Popular Histories of Britain 6 published 1900-2002 Introduction 8 Chapter 1 Writing and Reading the Nation 15 Chapter 2 History for the New Century 1900-1918 36 Chapter 3 History Between the Wars 1918-1939 50 Chapter 4 History in Wartime 1939-1945 69 Chapter 5 History for a New Jerusalem? 1945-1970 84 Chapter 6 Focus on Political History c1970-c1990 111 Chapter 7 Focus on Social History c1970-c1990 137 Chapter 8 History in the 1990s: One Nation or Four Nations? 162 Chapter 9 Davies and Schama: History for the New Century 185 Conclusion 207 Appendices: 1 Biographical information about historians 216 2 Historians contributing as programme directors on The Long 224 March of Everyman Bibliography 226 5 CHRONOLOGICAL BIBLIOGRAPHY OF POPULAR HISTORIES OF BRITAIN PUBLISHED 1900-2002 1900-1939 1912 Innes, A D, A History of the British Nation from Earliest Times to the Present Day 2 vols, Rivingtons 1912 Pollard, A F, The History of England: a study in political evolution, Home University Library (Williams and Norgate) 1913 Wingfield-Stratford, E, The History of English Patriotism, 2 vols, John Lane, The Bodley Head 1913-15 Innes, A D, The History of England and the British Empire 4 vols Rivingtons 1917 Chesterton, G K, A Short History of England, Chatto and Windus 1926 Trevelyan, G M, History of England, Longmans 1928 Wingfield-Stratford, Esmé, The History of British Civilisation, Routledge 1930 Sellar, W C, and Yeatman, R J, 1066 And All That, Methuen 1931 Williamson, J A, The Evolution of England: a Commentary on the Facts, Oxford: Clarendon Press 1932 Carrington, C E, and Jackson J Hampden, History of England, Cambridge: Cambridge University Press 1934 Belloc, Hilaire, A shorter history of England, Harrap 1935 Fisher, Mrs H A L (Lettice Fisher), An introductory history of England and Europe from the earliest times to the present day, Gollancz 1935 Murphy, Eileen, Our last two thousand years.

  • 1 BBC Four Biopics
    BBC Four biopics: Lessons in Trashy Respectability The broadcast of Burton and Taylor in July 2013 marked the end of a decade- long cycle of feature-length biographical dramas transmitted on BBC Four, the niche arts and culture digital channel of the public service broadcaster. The subjects treated in these biopics were various: political figures, famous cooks, authors of popular literature, comedians and singers. The dramas focused largely on the unhappy or complex personal lives of well-loved figures of British popular culture. From the lens of the 21st century, these dramas offered an opportunity for audiences to reflect on the culture and society of the 20th century, changing television’s famous function of ‘witness’ to one of ‘having witnessed’ and/or ‘remembering’ (Ellis, 2000). The programmes function as nostalgia pieces, revisiting personalities familiar to the anticipated older audience of BBC Four, working in concert with much of the archive and factual content on the digital broadcaster’s schedules. However, by revealing apparent ‘truths’ that reconfigure the public images of the figures they narrate, these programmes also undermine nostalgic impulses, presenting conflicting interpretations of the recent past. They might equally be seen as impudent incursions onto the memory of the public figures, unnecessarily exposing the real-life subjects to censure, ridicule or ex post facto critical judgement. Made thriftily on small budgets, the films were modest and spare in visual style but were generally well received critically, usually thanks to writerly screenplays and strong central performances. The dramas became an irregular but important staple of the BBC Four schedule, furnishing the channel with some of their highest ratings in a history chequered by low audience numbers.

THE SWORD OF STALINGRAD Most scholars recognize Antony Beevor’s 1998 book, Stalingrad: The Fateful Siege, as the best account of the battle. Beevor interviewed survivors and uncovered extraordinary documents in both German and Russian archives. His monumental work discusses Vasily Zaitsev and his talents as a sniper. But of the duel story, Beevor reports, at page 204: Some Soviet sources claim that the Germans brought in the chief of their sniper school to hunt down Zaitsev, but that Zaitsev outwitted him. Zaitsev, after a hunt of several days, apparently spotted his hide under a sheet of corrugated iron, and shot him dead. The telescopic sight off his prey’s rifle, allegedly Zaitsev’s most treasured trophy, is still exhibited in the Moscow armed forces museum, but this dramatic story remains essentially unconvincing. If the telescopic sight is still on display, and the story made all the papers, why does Beevor think it is not convincing? It is worth noting that there is absolutely no mention of it[the duel] in any of the reports to Shcherbakov [chief of the Red Army political department], even though almost every aspect of ‘sniperism’ was reported with relish. What did Vasily Zaitsev have to say about the duel? Living to old age in the Ukraine, where he was the director of an engineering school in Kiev, this Hero of the Soviet Union was apparently quoted by Alan Clark in Barbarossa: The sun rose.

Éste formó una alianza de rencor con John Cruickshanks, antiguo capitán en la Armada Británica y, más recientemente, entrañable amigo y dedicado colaborador de Bowle, por haber sufrido ambos por parte de él, y de una manera muy pública, una falta de sensibilidad y de buen juicio personal que tenía forzosamente que provocar un resentimiento profundo.
