  • The Limits of Social Mobility: Social Origins and Career Patterns of British Generals, 1688-1815
    The London School of Economics and Political Science The Limits of Social Mobility: social origins and career patterns of British generals, 1688-1815 Andrew B. Wood A thesis submitted to the Department of Economic History of the London School of Economics for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, November, 2011 1 Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without the prior written consent of the author. I warrant that this authorization does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. I declare that my thesis consists of 88,820 words. 2 Abstract Late eighteenth-century Britain was dominated by two features of economic life that were a major departure from previous eras, the economic growth of the Industrial Revolution and almost constant warfare conducted on a previously unprecedented scale. One consequence of this was the rapid expansion, diversification and development of the professions. Sociologists and economists have often argued that economic development and modernisation leads to increasing rates of social mobility. However, historians of the army and professions in the eighteenth-century claim the upper levels of the army were usually isolated from mobility as the highest ranks were dominated by sons of the aristocracy and landed elite.

He married Barbara Cox, daughter of Oswald Cox in 1927, there were no children. Kay fought in the First World War 1914-1919 and was a prisoner of war in Germany in 1918. He was employed by the National Gallery from 1919 until his death in 1938, holding the posts of Photographic Assistant from 1919-1921; Assistant from 1921-1934; and Keeper and Secretary from 1934-1938. Kay spent much of his time travelling around Britain and Europe looking at works of art held by museums, galleries, art dealers, and private individuals. Kay contributed to a variety of art magazines including The Burlington Magazine and The Connoisseur. Two of his most noted articles are 'John Sell Cotman's Letters from Normandy' in the Walpole Society Annual, 1926 and 1927, and 'A Survey of Spanish Painting' (Monograph) in The Burlington Magazine, 1927. From the late 1920s until his death in 1938 Kay was working on a book about the history of Spanish Painting which was to be published by The Medici Society. He completed a draft but the book was never published. HIK was a member of the Union and Burlington Fine Arts Clubs. He died on 10 August 1938 following an appendicitis operation, aged 44. Provenance and immediate source of acquisition The Harold Isherwood Kay papers were acquired by the National Gallery in 1991.

    LEAVES F.ROM A FAMILY TREE By EDGAR LAMBART- PRINTED FOR PRIVATE CIRCULATION BY >MESSRS. HATCHARD, 187 PICCADILLY, LONDON, W 1902 LEAVES FROM A FAMILY TREE INSCRIBED TO RUDOLPH, 10TH EARL OF CAVAN MY FAMILY AND KINSFOLK LEAVES FROM A FAMILY TREE. CHAPTER I. OST people, I fear, look on genealogy and everything con­ M nected with it as mere profitless stirring of dry bones. The general democratic spirit of the age, which effects more or less consciously all classes, has taught us to consider ·nothing more ridiculous than undue pride of ancestry, or, at least, any manifestation o( it. We take people as we find them, and are more concerned as to what they are (especially if they have money) than as to whence they came. It is certain that no one is neces­ -sarily the better for the possession of a long line of ancestors, though he may be much the worse for them. We need not worship our ancestors like the Ohinese, nor ought we to despise them, for science teaches us that they certainly to some extent made us what we are. There is surely a happy mean. Let us try to pardon them their lost opportunities in omitting to invest in London property or to found co-operative stores, and be 1 LEAVES FROM A FAMILY TREE grateful if they did not bequeath to us hereditary insanity or con­ :ftrmed mo1·al obliquity. To return to the question of the dryness of the subject, it surely depends very much on how it is presented to us.

This catalogue includes a wide range of British and European drawings, watercolours and oil sketches, placed more or less in chronological order, ranging in date from the 16th century to the first half of the 20th century. Although the areas of Old Master drawings, early British watercolours, 19th Century drawings and Modern drawings have long been regarded as disparate fields, each with their own enthusiasts, part of the purpose of this annual catalogue is to blur the distinction between these collecting areas.
