    ‘ART OF A SECOND ORDER’ The First World War From The British Home Front Perspective by RICHENDA M.

Abstract Little art-historical scholarship has been dedicated to fine art responding to the British home front during the First World War. Within pre-war British society concepts of sexual difference functioned to promote masculine authority. Nevertheless in Britain during wartime enlarged female employment alongside the presence of injured servicemen suggested feminine authority and masculine weakness, thereby temporarily destabilizing pre-war values. Adopting a socio-historical perspective, this thesis argues that artworks engaging with the home front have been largely excluded from art history because of partiality shown towards masculine authority within the matrices of British society. Furthermore, this situation has been supported by the writing of art history, which has, arguably, followed similar premise.

  • The Looking-Glass World: Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting 1850-1915
    THE LOOKING-GLASS WORLD Mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite Painting, 1850-1915 TWO VOLUMES VOLUME I Claire Elizabeth Yearwood Ph.D. University of York History of Art October 2014 Abstract This dissertation examines the role of mirrors in Pre-Raphaelite painting as a significant motif that ultimately contributes to the on-going discussion surrounding the problematic PRB label. With varying stylistic objectives that often appear contradictory, as well as the disbandment of the original Brotherhood a few short years after it formed, defining ‘Pre-Raphaelite’ as a style remains an intriguing puzzle. In spite of recurring frequently in the works of the Pre-Raphaelites, particularly in those by Dante Gabriel Rossetti and William Holman Hunt, the mirror has not been thoroughly investigated before. Instead, the use of the mirror is typically mentioned briefly within the larger structure of analysis and most often referred to as a quotation of Jan van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait (1434) or as a symbol of vanity without giving further thought to the connotations of the mirror as a distinguishing mark of the movement. I argue for an analysis of the mirror both within the context of iconographic exchange between the original leaders and their later associates and followers, and also that of nineteenth- century glass production. The Pre-Raphaelite use of the mirror establishes a complex iconography that effectively remytholgises an industrial object, conflates contradictory elements of past and present, spiritual and physical, and contributes to a specific artistic dialogue between the disparate strands of the movement that anchors the problematic PRB label within a context of iconographic exchange.

Whenever my memory has failed me I have drawn on the recollections of others or sought information from extant records. Seven decades have passed since the General Election of 1945 and there are few people now living with personal recollections of candidates who fought so long ago. I have drawn heavily upon recollections of conversations with older Liberal personalities in the West Midland Region who I knew in my early days with the party. I was conscious when I began work, twenty years ago, that much of this information would be lost forever were it not committed promptly to print. The Liberal challenge was weak in the West Midland Region over the period 1945 to 1959 in common with most regions of Britain. The number of constituencies fought fluctuated wildly; 1945, 21; 1950, 31; 1951, 3; 1955 4. The number of parliamentary constituencies in the region averaged just short of 60, a very large proportion urban in character.

  • Social History Following Hot on the Heels of the Aesthetic Movement
    THE BRITISH arts & Craft Movement Social history Following hot on the heels of the Aesthetic Movement, Arts & Crafts Style was a socially progressive art and design movement spearheaded by William Morris, which went on to gather strength in the Arts and Crafts workshops of the Cotswolds and the industrial garden cities of Port Sunlight & Bournville in the early 20th century. Where Aestheticsim was ‘art for arts sake’, the Arts & Crafts Movement was founded on socialist principles. Its pioneers championed the revival of traditional craftsmanship and good quality materials. Arts & Crafts designers believe that individually crafted wares were integral to good interior design and should be both useful as well as pleasing to the eye. An attempt to reform design and decoration as a stand against the ‘sham’ furnishings displayed at the Great Exhibition, Morris and his partners used natural materials, good craftsmanship, simple forms and organic shapes to create their pared back, honest look. A short-lived movement, Arts & Craft style clearly differentiated itself from the historical reproductions of the early Victorian era, with its botanical influences underpinning the sinuous lines of Art Nouveau. Key Dates 1861 Morris, Marshall & Faulkner established (later Morris & Co) 1875 Morris & Co relocates to London 1881 Morris & Co moves to Merton Abbey and the designs take on a more exotic taste 1883 Arthur Lazenby opens Liberty, the retail emporium 1887 Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society founded by Walter Crane 1888 Ashbee forms the Guild of Handicraft in East London 1893 Building starts Bournville, industrial garden city for Cadbury 1896 Wiiliam Morris dies 1899 Building starts at Port Sunlight, Merseyside, industrial garden city for Lever Brothers 1902 The Guild of Handicraft moves to the Cotswolds 1903 First Flight by the Wright Brothers 1914 World War I arts & Craft Movement 1860-1910 Architecture Arts & Craft architecture was a style that rebelled against industrialization and urged for a return to craftsmanship.
