  • Summary of Sensory Team Manager Duties
    Link to thesis website Chapter 6 Competing speech communities Chapter 6 Competing speech communities The final chapter of this section focuses on the evolution of folk tradition, and the new spaces created for performance, within the Celto-Cornish movement through the latter half of the twentieth century to the current era of festival culture and Pan- Celticism. It makes the case that the Celto-Cornish movement and the folk revival that arrived in Cornwall in the sixties represent different speech communities, which competed for ownership of oral folk tradition and the authenticity it represented. It must be also be recognised that there is a third speech community with a stake in the celebration of tradition, the local community within which it takes place. One outcome of these competing speech communities is the way in which the same folk phenomena will be used to express quite different identities. The Padstow May Day festivities for example are a celebration that firstly represents a sense of the towns community1 and secondly a Celto-Cornish tradition2 but at the same time is used as an icon by the English Folk Dance And Song Society.3 Underlying this discussion, however, must be the recognition that identity is chaotically unique for each individual and each group of individuals, all of which are at the centre of a “complex web of being”.4 In order to pursue this argument it is first necessary to revisit and examine more closely what is meant by a speech community and how this might affect performance and meaning within oral folk tradition.

We do have a speaker who was booked to speak at nine o’clock. However, yesterday he cancelled that slot, so perhaps I can check whether or not that speaker is here: Mr Michael Chappell?

After a short break Time Noted: 9.30 am THE LEAD ASSISTANT COMMISSIONER: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to day two of the public hearing into the initial proposals of the Boundary Commission for the new parliamentary constituencies in the South West region. My name is Anita Bickerdike and I am an Assistant Commissioner with the Boundary Commission and my role is to come and listen to what people locally want to come and tell me and then, with my fellow Commissioner, to actually look at those oral representations, together with any written representations that are received during the consultation period. Once all those consultations have been concluded, then my job with my Assistant Commissioner, as I have indicated, is to send a report to the Commissioners to see whether or not the initial proposals need to be amended.

  • Teachers Resource Notes Modern Art and St Ives KS1-2
    TEACHER RESOURCE NOTES KS1- 2 MODERN ART & ST IVES Patrick Heron Window for Tate St Ives 1992-1993 Yto Barrada Palm Sign 2010 This resource has been generously supported by The Wilhelmina Barns-Graham Trust ST IVES AND ITS LEGACY For more than a century, St Ives has been part of an international network of artists and artistic movements. Among its early visitors were painters, including Joseph Mallord William Turner, who were drawn to St Ives’ spectacular natural setting and the quality of the light. By the end of the nineteenth century, St Ives had become internationally renowned for its marine and landscape painting tradition. From the late 1930s, St Ives became an important centre for artists working in a broader movement known as modernism, which rejected styles of the past and instead embraced experimentation with forms, materials and techniques that better reflected modern society. Attracting a number of artists from Britain and abroad, including the sculptor Barbara Hepworth, whose former home and studio is now the Barbara Hepworth Museum, St Ives became a hub for exchange of ideas locally and internationally, and remains and thriving artist community today. THE NEW TATE ST IVES: THE FACTS The four-year building project has doubled the space for showing art, adding almost 600 square metres of galleries. It was created using concrete pouring and moulds –it was done by Welsh specialists who used to sing in chorus on site all day. The granite is from De Lank quarry in Bodmin, Cornwall. The faience tiles were made by Richard Miller, owner of Froyle Tiles and the on-screen technician of the Great British Pottery Throwdown To create this new gallery, it was necessary to dig into the hillside behind the original Tate St Ives.

    INFORMATION FOR VISITING GROUPS TATE ST IVES Porthmeor Beach, St Ives, Cornwall, TR26 1TG T: 01736 796226 www.tate.org.uk [email protected] - 1 - Introduction Tate St Ives presents modern and contemporary art, often created in or associated with Cornwall. Before Tate St Ives opened in 1993, there had been no public gallery dedicated to the distinctive modern art of St Ives. At the heart of the programme of displays and activities is a body of work for which the town of St Ives is internationally known - the modernist art produced by artists associated with the town and its surrounding area from the 1920s onwards. The displays change regularly, allowing a different selection from Tate's extensive collection of St Ives art to be shown each year. Tate also manages the Barbara Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden, which offers a remarkable insight into the work and outlook of one of Britain’s most important twentieth-century artists. Sculptures in bronze, stone and wood are on display in the Museum and Garden, along with paintings, drawings and archive material. The Visiting Group programme can cater for groups of all ages with a range of resources to support independent access as well as the opportunity to engage with the learning team at both Tate St Ives and the Hepworth Museum & Sculpture Garden. All groups must be pre-booked, call 01736 796226 email [email protected] For teacher resource notes to support your work with the exhibitions at both sites visit www.tate.org.uk/schoolsteachers - 2 - Thinking of visiting?

BLACK'S GUIDE TO CORNWALL EDITED BY A. R. HOPE MONCRIEFF TWENTY-SECOND EDITION WITH MAPS AND PLANS A. & C. BLACK, LTD. 4» 5 & 6 SOHO SQUARE, LONDON 1919 Twenty-second edition revised and brought up to datt by G. E. Mitton 1915 iw04 .i;[££nio, On^:; PREFACE In the present edition of our Guide to Cornwall greater importance has been given to the popular coast resorts, some of which are coming more and more into note both as summer and as winter havens. With these, as far as possible, we have connected the various points of interest most often visited on excursions from them, so that different sections will serve as small handbooks to Fowey, Falmouth, Penzance, the Lizard, the Land's End, Newquay, Tintagel, and other spots where strangers are most likely to take up their quarters. As usual, we have tried to make our pages both readable and practical, entering into the spirit of the scene without over-loading our descriptive outlines with too much detail, which, in the case of a longer stay at any place, could be sought in local guides and more elaborate works, duly referred to for the benefit of our readers. Our principle is that a guide-book for use by passing tourists may contain too many facts as well as too few, the latter fault, of course, the more unpardonable : our aim has been to avoid either extreme, with regard for proper proportion and the needs of the kind of reader chiefly kept in view.
