The scholarly generalities that initially allowed F.M. L. Thompson to put forward the academically seductive idea of a ‘respectable society’ characterized by discipline and self-restraint, have become increasingly become subject to re-evaluation especially through debates on the shifting and protean nature of identities and representations. So this talk offers a critical reassessment of Victorian respectability and its problematics, exploring some of the key questions historians are now addressing. Who were its most powerful proponents in Victorian society? Can we define the term? Who used it and why? How was it represented and where? Where were the contexts where its power was weakest? Why have more modern historians been attracted to ‘respectable’ topics and themes. A renewed focus on respectability is timely for a number of reasons. In part it can be seen as a response to the cultural turn, allowing a deeper exploration of the ways respectability has been used in Victorian language and systems of representation, whilst exploring contested meanings and omissions. The social psychology of respectability has been another neglected area worthy of further study. Foucault’s emphasis on power, and the extent to which certain groups in Victorian society were able to impose their meanings and definitions of respectability, is highly relevant too. Respectability often carried different meanings in different cultural contexts, often concealing rather than revealing the Victorians’ multifaceted lives. The family and local church, for example, were places where social pressures were strongest for respectable compliance. But there were many contexts where these powers were far less strong. Mike Huggins is Emeritus Professor of Cultural History at the University of Cumbria. He works on sports history, leisure history, tourism, and the history of popular culture. He is a Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, a Fellow and President of the European Committee for Sports History, as well as sitting on the editorial consultancy boards of five peer-reviewed academic leisure and sports history journals in Britain, France, the USA and South America. A few of his notable books include Vice and the Victorians (Bloomsbury, 2015), Sport and the English 1918-1939 (Routledge, 2006), The Victorians and Sport (Hambledon/Continuum, 2004) and, with J A Mangan, Disreputable Pleasures: Less Virtuous Victorians at Play (Frank Cass, 2004). 4 Day 2: Wednesday 23rd August 2017 at 4:50pm – 5:50pm (The Venue) Professor Christopher Ricks (William M. and Sara B. Warren Professor of the Humanities, Boston University) ‘“The whole heart-rending history in a single retrospective glance”: James Henry’s words and Virgil’s words’ An attempt at three lines of thought that might come to constitute a habitable triangle. First, to suggest that, despite the dangers of effrontery, those of us who markedly lack a particular field of scholarship may find ourselves able to profit honourably from the great scholars in the field. Second, to recall that James Henry (1798-1876) was one such, one of Ireland’s – and Europe’s – authentically independent scholars. A poet of dark wit and bright charm, he set about a lifelong interrogation of the Christian religion. A controversially humane doctor in Dublin, he came to travel through Europe, through history, through languages dead and alive, and entered upon his Twelve Years’ Voyage of Discovery in the First Six Books of the Aeneis (1853). The twelve years were tripled, and the six books became all twelve books, issuing in his astonishing compendium Aeneidea (1873- 1889). Vividly learnèd, extravagant, pertinacious inquiries into every line and almost every word of the Aeneid: those without Latinity should not leave these volumes to Latinists (of whom Christopher Ricks is not one). Third, Henry has a recurring preoccupation with the ways in which we are so often faced, not with something that has built into it a direction, but with an axis. “The further meaning of f l u e r e, i.e. whether the flowing signified by that word is flowing in a good sense, or in a bad, is to be determined by the context only – RETRO SUBLAPSA REFERRI explaining as clearly and unmistakably as it is possible for words to explain, that the flowing is backward, or in a bad sense”. Nothing is further from Virgil’s mind than . Truly? Christopher Ricks is the William M. and Sara B. Warren Professor of the Humanities at Boston University, having formerly been professor of English at Bristol and at Cambridge universities. He is a member of the Association of Literary Scholars, Critics, and Writers, of which he was president (2007- 2008). He was elected Professor of Poetry at Oxford in 2004, and is renowned both for his critical studies and for his editorial work. The latter includes The Poems of Tennyson (revised 1987), The New Oxford Book of Victorian Verse (1987), The Oxford Book of English Verse (1999), Selected Poems of James Henry (2002), Henry James’s What Maisie Knew (2010) and for Penguin Books Alfred Lord Tennyson: Selected Poems (2007). He is the author of Keats and Embarrassment (1974), The Force of Poetry (1984), Tennyson (1989), Beckett’s Dying Words (1993), Decisions and Revisions in T. S. Eliot (2003), Dylan’s Visions of Sin (2004), and True Friendship: Geoffrey Hill, Anthony Hecht, and Robert Lowell under the Sign of Eliot and Pound (2010). 5 Day 3: Thursday 24th August 2017 at 10:30am (The Venue) Professor Kate Flint (Provost Professor of Art History and English, University of Southern California, Dornsife) ‘Dandelions’ The dandelion is an extremely familiar plant. This talk explores how it disturbed Victorian categories – a property that it shares with many weeds. I consider it in relation to folklore and childhood and as a means of teaching elementary botany; I discuss its metaphoric potential, whether as flower (sun, gold) or as fluffy round head of hair (transience, indiscriminate dispersal). At the core of its appeal as a mutable, adaptable generator of figurative language is its ordinariness and its resilience. Drawing on a whole range of sources in the first part of the talk - from canonical Victorian writers, Christian writing for children, and advertisements, I pause to look in detail at some of Richard Jefferies’ essay writing, before concluding with a discussion of how some contemporary artists have recuperated the dandelion for ecologically-aware

  • Willing Slaves: the Victorian Novel and the Afterlife of British Slavery
    Willing Slaves: The Victorian Novel and the Afterlife of British Slavery Lucy Sheehan Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Lucy Sheehan All rights reserved ABSTRACT Willing Slaves: The Victorian Novel and the Afterlife of British Slavery Lucy Sheehan The commencement of the Victorian period in the 1830s coincided with the abolition of chattel slavery in the British colonies. Consequently, modern readers have tended to focus on how the Victorians identified themselves with slavery’s abolition and either denied their past involvement with slavery or imagined that slave past as insurmountably distant. “Willing Slaves: The Victorian Novel and the Afterlife of British Slavery” argues, however, that colonial slavery survived in the Victorian novel in a paradoxical form that I term “willing slavery.” A wide range of Victorian novelists grappled with memories of Britain’s slave past in ways difficult for modern readers to recognize because their fiction represented slaves as figures whose bondage might seem, counterintuitively, self-willed. Nineteenth-century Britons produced fictions of “willing slavery” to work through the contradictions inherent to nineteenth-century individualism. As a fictional subject imagined to take pleasure in her own subjection, the willing slave represented a paradoxical figure whose most willful act was to give up her individuality in order to maintain cherished emotional bonds. This figure should strike modern readers as a contradiction in terms, at odds with the violence and dehumanization of chattel slavery. But for many significant Victorian writers, willing slavery was a way of bypassing contradictions still familiar to us today: the Victorian individualist was meant to be atomistic yet sympathetic, possessive yet sheltered from market exchange, a monad most at home within the collective unit of the family.

  • Christiana Herringham (8 December 1852–25 February 1929) Meaghan Clarke
    Christiana Herringham (8 December 1852–25 February 1929) Meaghan Clarke Artist, writer, and suffragist, Christiana Herringham (Fig. 1) is primarily known as one of the founders of the National Art Collections Fund in 1903, along with the art writers Roger Fry, D. S. MacColl, and Claude Phillips, with the goal of acquiring works for the nation. Herringham had studied at the South Kensington School of Art and exhibited her early work at the Royal Academy. She married the physician Wilmot Herringham in 1880; Fig. 1: Christiana Herringham, c. 1906–11, photograph, Archives, Royal Holloway, University of London. 2 they had two sons. In 1899 she published the first English translation of Cennino Cennini’s Il libro dell’arte with notes on medieval artistic materials and methods. The latter derived largely from her own scientific experi- ments to replicate the techniques and recipes of early Renaissance tempera (egg yolk mixed with pigment). In 1901 she was one of a group of artists who exhibited ‘modern paintings’ in tempera at Leighton House, London, forming the Society of Painters in Tempera later that year. Society members exhibited again at the Carfax Gallery, London in 1905 and Herringham edited the Papers of the Society of Painters in Tempera, 1901–1907, which included her analysis of paintings in the collection of London’s National Gallery. TheBurlington Magazine was founded in 1903 and she served on its consultative committee. She published regularly with the journal over the next decade on a range of topics that encompassed the market for old masters, Albrecht Dürer, the proposed restoration of the basilica of San Marco, Venice, and Persian car- pets.

In it, I traced the evolution of Dickens’s ideal gentle Christian man, arguing that Dickens wanted his audience to reject a human valuation system based on birth and wealth and to set the standard for one’s social value upon the strength of one’s moral character. During my doctoral studies, I grew more interested in Dickens’s women characters and became intrigued by his contributions to what would become known as the Woman Question, and, more importantly, by what Dickens thought about women’s proper social functions and roles.

  • The Greatest Living Critic”: Christiana Herringham and the Practise of Connoisseurship
    The Greatest Living Critic”: Christiana Herringham and the practise of connoisseurship Meaghan Clarke Christina Herringham(1851–1929) was a founder and benefactor of the National Art- Collections Fund in 1903. 1 Her career as an artist and art writer is less well known. Herringham undertook early experimentation with tempera painting alongside her translation of Cennino Cennini’s (c.1370-c.1440) treatise on painting techniques. Herringham’s meticulous approach to understanding “medieval art methods” was a catalyst for the foundation of the Society of Painters in Tempera. Her writing for the art press, most notably for the Burlington Magazine where she was on the Consultative Committee, reveals her expertise on the technical aspects of connoisseurship. This paper traces the development of Herringham’s “scientific” method and highlights her pivotal role in a series of interconnecting networks. Knowledge and understanding of techniques and materials gave her a particular authority, just at the point that art history as a discipline was developing. Herringham’s interventions point to the need for a re-evaluation of male-centred narratives about the formation of art history. Key words: Connoisseurship; Christiana Herringham; (1851–1929); Cennino Cennini (DATES),; Sandro Botticelli (ca. 1445–1510); Burlington Magazine; Society of Painters in Tempera; Gender I have recently argued that women’s involvement in connoisseurship has been relatively unexplored, although figures such as Bernard Berenson and Fry have both been given considerable scholarly
