A system embodying some of the highest theoretical and practical principles which can fairly be said to constitute the existence of science itself, should not, in these onward days, be without its garner of lore, and its storehouse of those actual illustrations of the past which nntiring industry may have gathered, cultivated taste arranged, and religious care preserved.

  • Three Centuries of British Art
    Three Centuries of British Art Three Centuries of British Art Friday 30th September – Saturday 22nd October 2011 Shepherd & Derom Galleries in association with Nicholas Bagshawe Fine Art, London Campbell Wilson, Aberdeenshire, Scotland Moore-Gwyn Fine Art, London EIGHTEENTH CENTURY cat. 1 Francis Wheatley, ra (1747–1801) Going Milking Oil on Canvas; 14 × 12 inches Francis Wheatley was born in Covent Garden in London in 1747. His artistic training took place first at Shipley’s drawing classes and then at the newly formed Royal Academy Schools. He was a gifted draughtsman and won a number of prizes as a young man from the Society of Artists. His early work consists mainly of portraits and conversation pieces. These recall the work of Johann Zoffany (1733–1810) and Benjamin Wilson (1721–1788), under whom he is thought to have studied. John Hamilton Mortimer (1740–1779), his friend and occasional collaborator, was also a considerable influence on him in his early years. Despite some success at the outset, Wheatley’s fortunes began to suffer due to an excessively extravagant life-style and in 1779 he travelled to Ireland, mainly to escape his creditors. There he survived by painting portraits and local scenes for patrons and by 1784 was back in England. On his return his painting changed direction and he began to produce a type of painting best described as sentimental genre, whose guiding influence was the work of the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805). Wheatley’s new work in this style began to attract considerable notice and in the 1790’s he embarked upon his famous series of The Cries of London – scenes of street vendors selling their wares in the capital.

Examining Committee Supervisor: Professor Beverly Lemire, Department of History and Classics, University of Alberta Internal Examiner: Professor Susan Smith, Department of History and Classics, University of Alberta Internal/External Examiner: Professor Susan Hamilton, Department of English and Film Studies, University of Alberta Abstract The nineteenth-century English middle class was strongly influenced by science, industry, and capitalist managerial techniques. These trends also made their way into the domestic space, where women negotiated their application, particularly in the kitchen. This thesis examines domestic life in the context of the popularization of science and the history of technology and management to come to a fuller understanding of how middle-class women ran their homes between about 1800 and 1880, a period of broad industrialisation and business growth.

  • Alexis Soyer: El Colaborador De Florence Nightingale En Crimea
    ALEXIS SOYER: EL COLABORADOR DE FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE EN CRIMEA PALABRAS CLAVE: ALEXIS SOYER; FLORENCE NIGHTINGALE; CRIMEA; ALIMENTACION; GASTRONOMIA; INNOVACIÓN. INTRODUCCIÓN Si hoy habláramos de los mejores cocineros de todo el mundo (Gutiérrez-Tapia, A. 2011) hablaríamos de Ferrán Adriá, de Alain Ducasse, de Keller Thomas. Pero si hiciéramos una lista con el top ten de los chefs de la alta cocina más famosos, o de más impacto, de todos los tiempos nos encotraríamos con Alexis Soyer en los puestos más altos del ranking (Curiosidades gastronómicas 2011; Blanc 2011). Este cocinero fráncés, que desarrolló su carrera profesional en Gran Bretaña, además de innovar e inventar numerosos útiles culinarios, técnicas de cocina y numerosas recetas (hoy diríamos que era un experto en I+D+I), además de publicar varios libros, estuvo con Florence Nightingale en Crimea organizando la alimentación de los hospitales militares y de las tropas británicas. Sus libros se estudian en las escuelas superiores de cocina, y en uno de ellos recoge sus experiencias en la guerra de Crimea, y su admiración por Florence Nightingale. FOTO 1 Portada del trabajo SUS ORÍGENES Y EL COMIENZO DE SU TRAYECTORIA Alexis Benoît Soyer (4 de febrero de 1810 – 5 de agosto de 1858) nació en Meaux-en- Brie (Marne- Francia) conocida por su queso. A los 11 años, tras su expulsión de la escuela (fue expulsado del seminario donde estudiaba, por haber llamado a rebato indebidamente), va a Paris a trabajar como aprendiz en el restaurante Grignon de su 1 hermano. A los 16 años ya es el cocinero jefe del restaurante “Boulevard des Italiens”.

  • The French Migrant and French Gastronomy in London (Nineteenth to Twenty-First Centuries)
    A Migrant Culture on Display: The French Migrant and French Gastronomy in London (Nineteenth to Twenty-First Centuries) Debra Kelly Oh, Madame Prunier, you give us fishes which we wouldn’t dream of eating anywhere; you call them by a funny French name, and we all adore them! (Prunier 2011, x–xi) Que se passe-t-il dans une assiette? Que retrouve-t-on qui exprime des idées, fasse sens et permette un message? Quelle est la nature de cette matière à réflexion? Quelle emblématique pour l’empire des signes culinaires? (Onfray 156)1 French Food Migrates to London: The French Migrant and London Food Culture2 In his social history of ‘eating out’ in England from the mid-nineteenth century to the turn of the twenty-first, John Burnett discusses thediffusion 1 Translation: ‘What happens on a plate? What is found there which may express ideas, make meaning, formulate a message? What is the nature of this material for reflection? How can the empire of culinary signs be symbolised’? The philosopher Michel Onfray is making explicit reference to Barthes’s L’Empire des signes (1970), and implicit reference to Barthes’s methods of analysing cultural myths, their construction and circulation. These methods also underlie the approach taken in this article to representation and meaning. 2 This article explores some of the preliminary research for a larger project which uses French cuisine as the lens through which to analyse the French (and Francophone) experience in the British capital, historically and in the contemporary city: ‘being’ French in London. It considers French culinary knowledge and practice at work in the city as a material form of identity, of culture and of cultural capital and examines its place in London’s constantly evolving culinary landscape: ‘eating’ French in London.

    FROMENTAL HALÉVY’S LA TEMPESTA: A STUDY IN THE NEGOTIATION OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCES by CHRISTOPHER HENDLEY (Under the Direction of David Schiller) ABSTRACT This dissertation deals with the performance and reception of the opera La Tempesta, composed by Fromental Halévy and adapted from Shakespeare by Eugène Scribe. In La Tempesta, French grand opera, the London Italian opera tradition, and Shakespearean appropriation collide. Thus its composer, its librettist, its critics, and even its audience become agents of cultural change in the process by which the negotiation of cultural differences is carried out, while the opera itself comes into focus only when seen from all three perspectives. Beginning with the conception of La Tempesta in the hands of London’s beloved adopted composer Felix Mendelssohn, the study traces the history of La Tempesta from its premiere in London to its revival a year later for the Théâtre-Italien in Paris. It examines the opera from two perspectives: as a historical and cultural event, emphasizing the opera’s production and reception in London; and as a musical and dramatic work, dealing with such technical aspects as harmony, form and overall dramatic construction. In viewing the opera as an event, the study also addresses its broader contexts, including the history of Shakespearean reception in both England and France, the tradition of Italian opera in London, and the role of cultural prejudices that existed between France and England. Integral to the study is an exploration of how certain genres of European lyric drama, particularly Italian opera, French grand opéra and opéra comique, and melodrama may have influenced the authors of La Tempesta in their effort to create a successful work.
