From a peripatetic upbringing emerged an artist with a penchant for the exotic. A painter-traveller above all else, Sargent sought to record his visible delight with the world. Not content to replicate the successes of men before him, Sargent set out on an artistic course to discover his own aesthetic and announce it to the world. His first Orientalist painting exhibited at the Salon, Fumée d’Ambre Gris (1880), was notable for its tonal virtuosity. In preparation for a grand mural scheme for the new Boston Public Library, Sargent embarked on a thorough investigation of the Near East.

  • 1 Women's Writing and British Female Film Culture in the Silent Era Submitted by Lisa Rose Stead to the University of Exeter A
    Women’s Writing and British Female Film Culture in the Silent Era Submitted by Lisa Rose Stead to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English In January 2011 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature_____________________________ I acknowledge the support of the Arts and Humanities Research Council in fully funding this doctoral research project (2007-2010). 1 Abstract This thesis explores women’s writing and its place in the formation of female film culture in the British silent cinema era. The project focuses upon women’s literary engagement with silent cinema as generative of a female film culture, looking at materials such as fan letters, fan magazines, popular novels, short story papers, novelizations, critical journals and newspaper criticism. Exploring this diverse range of women’s cinema writing, the thesis seeks to make an original contribution to feminist film historiography. Focusing upon the mediations between different kinds of women’s cinema writing, the thesis poses key questions about how the feminist film historian weights original sources in the reclamation of silent female film culture, relative to the varying degrees of cultural authority with which different women commentated upon, reflected upon, and creatively responded to film culture.
