Eadweard Muybridge 1 Eadweard Muybridge
Eadweard Muybridge 1 Eadweard Muybridge Eadweard Muybridge Born Edward James Muggeridge9 April 1830Kingston upon Thames, England Died 8 May 1904 (aged 74)Kingston upon Thames, England Resting place Woking, Surrey, England Nationality [1] British Ethnicity English Occupation Photographer Eadweard J. Muybridge ( /ˌɛdwərdˈmaɪbrɪdʒ/; 9 April 1830 – 8 May 1904) was an English photographer who spent much of his life in the United States. He is known for his pioneering work on animal locomotion which used multiple cameras to capture motion, and his zoopraxiscope, a device for projecting motion pictures that pre-dated the flexible perforated film strip.[2] Names Born Edward James Muggeridge, he changed his name several times early in his US career. First he changed his forenames to the Spanish equivalent Eduardo Santiago, perhaps because of the Spanish influence on Californian place names. His surname appears at times as Muggridge and Muygridge (possibly due to misspellings), and Muybridge from the 1860s. In the 1870s he changed his first name again to Eadweard, to match the spelling of King Edward shown on the plinth of the Kingston coronation stone, which was re-erected in Kingston in 1850. His name remained Eadweard Muybridge for the rest of his career.[3] However, his gravestone bears a further variant, Eadweard Maybridge. He used the pseudonym Helios (Greek god of the sun) on many of his photographs, and also as the name of his studio and his son's middle name.[4] Eadweard Muybridge 2 Early life and career He was born at Kingston-on-Thames, England on April 9, 1830. He emigrated to the US, arriving in San Francisco in 1855, where he started a career as a publisher's agent and bookseller. -
History Policy
History Policy NB: Throughout this document Latchmere Academy Trust may be abbreviated to “LAT” Reasons for studying History “If you would understand anything, observe its beginning and its development.” Aristotle “Whoever wishes to foresee the future must consult the past; for human events ever resemble those of preceding times. This arises from the fact that they are produced by men and women who ever have been, and ever shall be, animated by the same passions, and thus they necessarily have the same results.” Machiavelli In teaching history, we encourage pupils to understand more about themselves as individuals and as members of society. They learn to find evidence, weigh it up and reach their own conclusions. Our children enjoy a hands-on approach to history, using a range of artefacts and other information sources to investigate the past. Our focus for enquiry spans from investigating our own lives and past in the Foundation Stage to World War II in Year Six. In all our historical studies, we aim to bring to life characters from the past in order to motivate pupils and stimulate their imagination. Aims Our principal aim in the study of history is to stimulate pupils’ curiosity and interest in both the past and the present and to explore the relationship between them. We aim to help pupils to: . Build up an understanding of themselves and their place in society . Develop an interest in the past and an appreciation of human achievements and aspirations . Develop knowledge of chronology so they can organise their understanding of the past . Understand the values of their society and others . -

Kingston Upon Thames Revisited July 2018
© Robert J S Briggs 2018 – http://surreymedieval.wordpress.com – email [email protected] KINGSTON UPON THAMES REVISITED: FURTHER THOUGHTS ON ITS ORIGINS AND EARLY MEDIEVAL DEVELOPMENT Rob Briggs The June 2017 Medieval Studies Forum visit to Kingston upon Thames allowed those present to focus on one of the most important places in medieval Surrey. If anything, its importance was greater in the period before the Norman Conquest than after, given its sta- tus as the coronation site for at least two tenth-century kings and the named promulgation place of half a dozen known charters. The visit was also timely as 2017 saw the publica- tion of perhaps the most in-depth examination of the origin of the place-name, and by ex- tension of the early medieval settlement that first bore it. Jill Bourne’s book, The Place- name Kingston and Royal Power in Middle Anglo-Saxon England, brings to a conclusion a lengthy period of research that has previously generated a journal article (Bourne 1987-88) and a book chapter (Bourne 2012), in addition to the 2011 Nottingham PhD the- sis of which the new monograph is an updated version. In between these publications, other name-studies scholars proffered useful new contributions to the debate (Hough 1997; Probert 2008). That Bourne has been able to develop a thesis subsection into a whole book chapter dedi- cated to contemplating why Kingston upon Thames is such an anomaly among English place-names of the “Kingston”-type says something about the volume and complexity of the available evidence. Nevertheless, there are aspects of her argument that do not con- vince, and the purpose of this essay is to evaluate these and, by adding some new per- spectives into the debate, advance a new reading of the knotty body of evidence for Anglo- Saxon Kingston. -

'Reforming Academicians', Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, C
‘Reforming Academicians’, Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, c.1948-1959 by Melanie Veasey Doctoral Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University, September 2018. © Melanie Veasey 2018. For Martin The virtue of the Royal Academy today is that it is a body of men freer than many from the insidious pressures of fashion, who stand somewhat apart from the new and already too powerful ‘establishment’.1 John Rothenstein (1966) 1 Rothenstein, John. Brave Day Hideous Night. London: Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1966, 216. Abstract Page 7 Abstract Post-war sculpture created by members of the Royal Academy of Arts was seemingly marginalised by Keynesian state patronage which privileged a new generation of avant-garde sculptors. This thesis considers whether selected Academicians (Siegfried Charoux, Frank Dobson, Maurice Lambert, Alfred Machin, John Skeaping and Charles Wheeler) variously engaged with pedagogy, community, exhibition practice and sculpture for the state, to access ascendant state patronage. Chapter One, ‘The Post-war Expansion of State Patronage’, investigates the existing and shifting parameters of patronage of the visual arts and specifically analyses how this was manifest through innovative temporary sculpture exhibitions. Chapter Two, ‘The Royal Academy Sculpture School’, examines the reasons why the Academicians maintained a conventional fine arts programme of study, in contrast to that of industrial design imposed by Government upon state art institutions for reasons of economic contribution. This chapter also analyses the role of the art-Master including the influence of émigré teachers, prospects for women sculpture students and the post-war scarcity of resources which inspired the use of new materials and techniques. -
Statement of Consultation Application for the Designation of North
Statement of Consultation Application for the Designation of North Kingston as a Neighbourhood Area March 2017 Introduction This Consultation Statement sets out the approach and results of consultation undertaken by the Royal Borough of Kingston on the application to have an Area of North Kingston designated as a Neighbourhood Area. The first step required to secure neighbourhood planning powers is for the local planning authority designate a Neighbourhood Area. Neighbourhood planning regulations requires that only a group that can demonstrate that it is capable of becoming a Neighbourhood Forum can submit an application, i.e. that it representative of the area and has a constitution. On 19th August 2016, a local community group of North Kingston residents called North Kingston Forum submitted an application to have an area of North Kingston designated as a Neighbourhood Area. This report summarises and sets out the feedback received during the consultation process. 1 Consultation Process The North Kingston Neighbourhood Area application was published for consultation from 2nd December 2016 to 30th January 2017, for a period of seven weeks. During this time the submitted documents were available to download from the council's website. All those on the Strategic Planning database, which includes more than 2,000 consultees, were informed of the consultation by letter (see Appendix 1 for a copy of the letter). The following categories of consultee were consulted (a complete list of consultees can be found in Appendix 2 of this report): ● Statutory consultees ● Business community ● Community support groups ● Disability groups ● Education organisations ● Environment groups ● Ethnic groups ● Health organisations ● Heritage protection groups ● Local residents and interested parties ● Infrastructure providers ● Leisure groups ● Older people groups ● Planning Interest groups, e.g. -
