You can attach further information such as plans or drawings to this form if needed. Overview An inclusive community arts project that reflects and promotes Exmoor’s status as Europe’s first Dark Sky Reserve. The project will, via a range of workshops, activities and commissioned artwork, investigate and celebrate our relationship with the night sky through the seasons. People of all cultures, beliefs, ages and eras have had a significant connection with our dark starry skies. In an age of increasing light pollution, areas like the moorland of Exmoor become important focal points in which to cherish the restorative tranquillity, and to learn about and celebrate this profoundly beautiful aspect of nature. The project is focused around our native storytelling tradition of local and national mythologies relating to the night sky, as well as drawing on the wealth of stories from other International Dark Sky Reserves: Mon Megantic in Quebec, Canada; Aoraki Mackenzie Maori, New Zealand; and Naumbrand Nature Reserve, Namibia. Why we want to do the project Achieving the Dark Sky Reserve status was a huge success for Exmoor National Park. This success can be built on and enhanced if more people (both locals and visitors) are given the chance to understand the designation at a community and a personal level. What does living in (or close to) a Dark Sky Reserve mean for communities? . How can individuals connect to the landscape of the night sky in a meaningful and safe way? . How does twenty-first century, twenty-four hour living relate to conserving the darkness of the night sky, especially in a tourist area? . How do we fit into the legacy of poets, painters, astronomers and philosophers who have interpreted the night sky of Exmoor over the centuries? . What do we want to pass on to future generations in terms of understanding and valuing the nighttime skyscape of the moor? The arts are a very direct and accessible way to engage people in thinking about their locality. The more people understand what is special about a place, the more connected they feel to it, and the greater advocates they become for telling others. This project will engage with 1000+ people who will share ideas, create and exhibit together on the theme of the Dark Sky Reserve status. We hope their art works will educate and inspire others, especially visitors, to come to Exmoor and experience the unique qualities of its night sky for themselves. Spreading the word about the designation will potentially assist both the National Park Authority and individual tourism businesses in attracting more Dark Sky visitors. The proposed work aims to directly contribute to some of the actions in ENPA’s Partnership Plan 2012-2017: Actions A1.12 (delivering dark skies events on Exmoor), A4.10 (promoting Exmoor’s culture and arts), B1.8 (supporting events on Exmoor) B1.13 (marketing Exmoor through its dark skies) and B3.6 (focusing on schools and communities in and near to the national park). We have already held a Pilot event for Somerset Art Weeks, 21st-29th September 2013, to test the project idea, which attracted 920 visitors (aged 5 to 95): 9 days of exhibiting/activity that celebrated our Dark Starry Skies and captured the public’s responses, thoughts and memories in connection with the night sky and Exmoor's Dark Sky Reserve status. The work included a film by the lead artist which responds to Coleridge’s Kubla Khan within the setting of night-time and dreaming, and a pop-up cafe with Dark Starry Sky stories and activities. There was an illustrated talk, "The Sublime and the Beautiful - Art, Literature and Landscape, Romanticism and its influences”, attended by 23 people. Artwork by members of the local community included starry night themed textiles, print and floral arrangements. Public response to the pilot exhibition will inform the delivery of the main project. See selection of visitors’ comments attached. To view the 8 minute Kubla Khan film made by Frances Harrison go to - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xeC69DYjx6o - 2 - Our project aims . To increase awareness and understanding of Exmoor’s Dark Sky Reserve status amongst local communities (on and around the moor) and with visitors . To deliver professionally-run, high quality arts workshops and events that give people creative space to explore and interpret their relationship to the night sky in a safe and accessible way . To share the outputs of the workshops widely as a means to assist ENPA and tourism businesses in spreading the word about the designation . To celebrate the legacy of the Romantic poets and artists and the wider cultural heritage of Exmoor and the links to conservation and appreciation of the moorland . To promote the work alongside ARTlife’s Landscape Art programme creating new art works along the Coleridge Way, adding value to both projects Project objectives . To run 32 school and community workshops . To run 3 pop up storytelling cafes on and around Exmoor . To tour elements of the pilot event to other communities, alongside the pop up cafes – includes original stories, artworks, Kubla Khan film, Wordwall, talk on Romanticism and community textile pieces . To create a documentary film of participants’ interviews, stories and artists’ reflections . To offer this film as useful marketing material for the Dark Skies designation, for the tourism sector to use How we will achieve our aims and objectives We will run a year of activity with storytellers, artists and astronomers, engaging groups and individuals (locals and visitors, of all ages) to experience and re-kindle feelings of awe, mystery and wonder when encountering the moorland landscape of Exmoor and its dark starry skies through the four seasons. A target of 1000+ participants will engage in storytelling sessions, guided story walks, contribute to a community film and join in storytelling pop-up cafes and educational talks, where they will share memories, observations and ideas and develop creative responses. This live/direct audience for the work does not include the potentially huge online audience viewing the film via YouTube and via ARTlife’s Coleridge Way projects blog. Filming will happen alongside and sometimes as part of the storytelling activities and be a joint creation of the project participants and the lead artist/filmmaker Frances Harrison. The project will link with ARTlife’s work with the Coleridge Way and will use as a framework the poetry of Coleridge and the philosophy of the Romantic movement with its focus on the Sublime in nature and the importance of a moral, mindful and respectful relationship with nature in all its manifestations. The work responds to rising interest in astronomy amongst local communities and especially visitors, and will encourage participants/audiences to value, protect and celebrate the nighttime landscape. The outcomes of the project (e.g. broadcasting the film on YouTube) will be shared widely, helping to promote Exmoor and contributing to the long term economic potential of its Dark Sky Reserve status. Made, printed, filmed and online artworks/archives will serve as physical legacies of the project. Awareness raising, education and inspiring creativity amongst participants will be the qualitative outcomes. How the project specifically meets the Fund Criteria - Project outputs and outcomes Economic: 1. 58 days work for West Somerset-based artists 2. 1 new film focusing on the designation that can be used by ENPA, Visit Exmoor and tourism businesses (linking via YouTube) 3. Touring the pilot exhibition elements – storytelling café, Kubla Khan film, Wonderwall, talk on Romanticism, community textile pieces – to raise awareness of the designation 4.

  • The Many Conversations of This Lime-Tree Bower
    From The Coleridge Bulletin The Journal of the Friends of Coleridge New Series 26 (NS) Winter 2005 © 2005 Contributor all rights reserved http://www.friendsofcoleridge.com/Coleridge-Bulletin.htm Agreement, Dissonance, Dissent: The Many Conversations of ‘This Lime-Tree Bower’ Felicity James ____________________________________________________________________________________________ N THIS TALK I want to touch on some of the many conversations going Ion inside and around ‘This Lime-Tree Bower’; firstly, the conversations— and the conflicts—between friends which shape the poem. Much has been said about the rich biographical and literary interconnections of this poem, and, in particular, its position in the Wordsworth-Coleridge relationship—the way in which, for example, it subtly re-reads and, in Lucy Newlyn’s words, ‘strategically correct[s]’ Wordsworth’s ‘Lines left upon a seat in a Yew-tree’.1 Lynda Pratt, too, has shown us how the poem ‘embarks on a literal and metaphorical rewriting’ of Southey poems such as the ‘Inscription III: For a Cavern that overlooks the River Avon’, the ‘Botany-Bay Eclogue’ ‘Elinor’, and the ‘Ode. Written on the First of January 1794’.2 Today, though, I want to look again at the poem through the lens of an earlier Coleridgean relationship: with the ‘gentle-hearted’ Charles Lamb. Everyone here will know that famous remonstrance made by Lamb in letters of 1800, just after his reconciliation with Coleridge, when he tells him not to ‘make me ridiculous any more by terming me gentle-hearted in print’3—‘please to blot out gentle hearted, and substitute drunken dog, ragged-head, seld-shaven, odd-ey’d, stuttering, or any other epithet which truly and properly belongs to the Gentleman in question’.4 I want to restore Lamb’s sometimes dissonant voice to this conversation poem, and to suggest that, just as he occupies the central, turning point of the poem itself, so too, in that self-deprecating complaint, Lamb gets right to the heart of some central Coleridgean dilemmas in ‘This Lime Tree Bower’.

  • Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2
    Rights of Way Improvement Plan 2 WWW.SOMERSET.GOV.UK WELCOME TO THE 2ND SOMERSET RIGHTS OF WAY IMPROVEMENT PLAN Public Rights of Way are more than a valuable recreational resource - they are also an important asset in terms of the rural economy, tourism, sustainable transport, social inclusion and health and well being. The public rights of way network is key to enabling residents and visitors alike to access services and enjoy the beauty of Somerset’s diverse natural and built environment. Over the next few years, the focus is going to be chiefly on performing our statutory duties.

  • Frost at Midnight By: S. T. Coleridge Dr. Faisal A. Hayder Al-Doori
    1 Frost at Midnight By: S. T. Coleridge Dr. Faisal A. Hayder Al-Doori Summary At the beginning of the poem, frost starts moving through the midnight. The poet or the speaker is living upstairs only with his baby sleeping in its cradle. The quietness and silence of the night attract the poet because it seems to be confusing. He thinks that some secrets are going to be formulated and haunted the cottage, nature and town. A "stranger" is the term used in the poem to define "a film of soot flutters on the grate of the fireplace." The speaker feels that he is like this stranger because of loneliness and his thoughts are flickering like this fluttering "stranger."He is thinking of "how the Spirit (either the human spirit or the Holy Spirit or both) searches for an echo of itself in the world of thought.This "stranger" reminds him when he was a pupil, looking at a stranger roaming on the schoolroom's fireplace, dreaming with a visitor to come, may be one of his relatives or friends or the bell of the Church rings to change the boring state of the schoolroom. The poet hopes that his baby son, Hartely Coleridge, will live in harmony with Nature more than his father who spent his primary study in London. The poet believes that God have a connection with human beings through Nature. The language of Nature is eternal and it is an example to prove the creator's existence. The last lines of the poem indicate that the poet predicts that his son will be happy even in winter because of God's presence.

  • The Exmoor Society Quiz No 5 – the Answers 1
    The Exmoor Society Quiz No 5 – The Answers 1. Grabbist Hill, Dunster. Grabbist Hill overlooks the village of Dunster, and is at the head of a ridge that runs west towards Wootton Courtenay and Dunkery. From this ridge, there are wonderful far-reaching views over the Bristol Channel to the north, and the Avill Valley to the south, with extensive footpaths and bridleways along the hill and into the combes. Grabbist is now well populated by trees, so there is little evidence of the "purple-headed mountain", unless this refers to Dunkery Beacon, on whose slopes the River Avill rises. Little remains of the site of the Iron Age hillfort, although the adjacent Giant’s Chair is still visible where our old friend, the Giant of Grabbist, likes to doze in the sun while he enjoying the view of Gallox Hill opposite. The area offers an important range of wildlife habitats, including that of the endangered heath fritillary butterfly. Grabbist is owned by the National Trust. 2. Samuel Taylor Coleridge – the Coleridge Way. Created in April 2005, the Coleridge Way originally ended at Porlock but in May 2014 a 15-mile extension to Lynmouth was launched. The Coleridge Way is now a 51mile/80km footpath in Somerset and Devon; the route links several sites associated with the romantic poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge starting from the National Trust’s Coleridge Cottage at Nether Stowey and finishing in Lynmouth. 34 miles of this, from Nether Stowey to Exford, is bridleway but walkers can continue on from Lynmouth along the South West Coast Path to Lynton, Poets Corner in the Valley of Rocks and beyond.
