This might be the everyday meanings that humans attach to places bound up with a sense of identity and belonging. It also extends to ways that meanings of place might be created, such as through place making and marketing. Representations of places are important because of the way in which they shape peoples' actions and behaviours, and those of businesses, institutions and governments. Representations also provide a reference point for people's sense of identity, underpinning their attachments to place, particularly in times of change. Attention to meaning highlights the processes of representation through which places are depicted, variously by external agencies and by those who live in them. The meanings and identities ascribed to a place may also be related to its function, both social and economic, in the present and in the past. Places can have multiple meanings and identities, reflecting different perceptions and perspectives. Students should select one of the following topics through which to address the concepts of meaning and representation as applied to place: Place making and marketing, drawing on examples such as regional development agencies, tourist marketing, and property marketing materials.

  • The Literary London Journal, Volume 16.1 (Autumn 2020): 4
    Speculative Topography: The Fantastical Overdetermination of Space in Iain Sinclair’s Early Writing David Anderson (University College London) The Literary London Journal, Volume 16, Number 1 (Autumn 2020) The speed and scale of Iain Sinclair’s literary production, its constant turns and returns to the same locations and preoccupations, sometimes seems deliberately designed to ward off scholars – or, to use a term more appropriate to Sinclair’s pedestrian forays into London and its environs, to outpace them. And yet, at the same time, his work also seems to lend itself to research by depicting a city extraordinarily freighted with signification, bristling with meaning: a fantastically overdetermined space that demands explanation. This strange, even radical ambivalence, which seems to mirror Sinclair’s slyly paradoxical cultivation of an urgent pedestrianism, is in fact partly fuelled by the presence of an unconventional brand of highly eccentric scholarship within Sinclair’s own work: above all, his discovery in the early 1970s of a text entitled Prehistoric London: Its Mounts and Circles, written by Elizabeth Oke Gordon. A look at this wilfully archaic volume – which even on its original publication in 1914 must have seemed somewhat untimely – suggests ways that Sinclair’s distinctive articulation of London and his journeys through it emerged from a disorientating blend of first-hand exploration and abstruse amateur archaeology: a method built on his reading of Gordon’s arcane, speculative, even bizarre account of London’s supposed mythic topography and hidden histories. As soon becomes clear, Gordon’s ‘study’ provided a foundation stone for the later author’s own plunges into the city as both a physical and textual space.

  • Boxer Handsome; a Novel and Critical Study of Representations of Masculinities in Modern Literature
    Boxer Handsome; a novel and critical study of representations of masculinities in modern literature. Anna Whitwham Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Royal Holloway, University of London 2014 1 Declaration of Authorship I, Anna Whitwham, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Anna Whitwham Date: 31/08/2013 2 Acknowledgments A very special thank you to my supervisors, Andrew Motion and Robert Hampson, for all their invaluable support and guidance throughout my PhD. I would also like to thank my agent, Simon Trewin for believing in my writing. I am very grateful to Chatto &Windus for publishing my novel to my editor, Parisa Ebrahimi. 3 Abstract This thesis is a study of modern masculinities as represented in both fiction and non–fiction. It is explored through a novel, Boxer Handsome and through a critical essay. The critical essay will explore working class masculinity through an analysis of 1950s fiction, cinematic representations and factual accounts of boxers and gangsters and the performance of masculinity within sub-cultural groups. I will look at how representations of masculinity are performed within specific sub-cultural groups of men and the way language is formed as a response to social and cultural experience. The thesis will be separated into four chapters: Chapter 1. Post-1950s British fiction and cinema; Chapter 2. Fictional and factual accounts of boxers; Chapter 3. Gangsters and Violence, and Chapter 4. Representations of women in some of these cultures.

  • My Autobiography
    F SOLID GOLD MY AUTOBIOGRAPHY The Ultimate Rags to Riches Tale Forward by Robin Pilley David Gold, Chairman of Ann Summers, Gold Group International and West Ham United, is a man who has risen from humble and poverty stricken beginnings and achieved a status in life beyond what even he could have ever envisaged. Born an East End Jewish cockney lad, he was at the very bottom of life’s social strata. After a childhood characterised by war, poverty and disease he set out to change his life, and in the process he also changed the lives of everyone close to him. He understands and embraces the importance of change. He also changed the fortunes of his beloved football club, developed an iconic brand in Ann Summers and was influential in liberating the sexual behavior of the great British public. Now, Gold brings his unparalleled ability for change to his inspirational autobiography. This completely reworked edition, ‘The Ultimate Rags to Riches Tale’, focuses more on his personality, his remarkable business achievements, his life- affirming story and his reflections and recollections on a world that changed beyond recognition within his own lifetime. And most importantly, he speaks candidly about how he softened the British stiff upper lip and almost single-handedly brought sex onto the UK’s high streets and changed our sex lives for the better. No one has done more to prove that dreams can come true and now you can read his exceptional autobiography exclusively written to show just 2 what one man can achieve from the most humble beginnings.

It seamlessly mixes styles — rock, pop, danzón and more — in ways that reveal a dexterous musicality” Los Angeles Times Photo: Oscar Reyes After sell-out concerts in New York, London and LA, Mexrrissey - Mexico goes Morrissey will come to Australia for an exclusive performance at the Enmore Theatre as part of Sydney Festival. The glorious seven-piece band, representing the crème de la crème of Mexico’s music scene, reimagine classic songs of The Smiths and Morrissey entirely in Spanish, using vibrant Latin rhythms. At first glance, the association might seem surprising: songs from a country Morrissey himself bewails as “silent and grey” being sung by musicians from one of the world’s most famously vibrant places. However, Morrissey’s ardent Mexican fan base is a force to be reckoned with, and when you consider the drama, romance and poetry inherent in The Smiths’ outsider anthems, it makes perfect sense. Morrissey himself once said “Nothing the world holds could match the love waiting for me in Mexico City”. Mexrrissey was founded by DJ Camilo Lara, the founder of the pioneering electronic band Mexican Institute of Sound, a project that adapts traditional Mexican music with beats and synthesisers.
