  • Press Release
    PRESS RELEASE No: 756/2015 Date: 21st October 2015 Gibraltar authors bring Calpean zest to Literary Festival events As the date for the Gibunco Gibraltar Literary Festival draws closer, the organisers have released more details of the local authors participating in the present edition. The confirmed names are Adolfo Canepa, Richard Garcia, Mary Chiappe & Sam Benady and Humbert Hernandez. Former AACR Chief Minister Adolfo Canepa was Sir Joshua Hassan’s right-hand man for many years. Currently Speaker and Mayor of the Gibraltar Parliament, Mr Canepa recently published his memoirs ‘Serving My Gibraltar,’ where he gives a candid account of his illustrious and extensive political career. Interestingly, Mr Canepa, who was first elected to the Rock’s House of Assembly in 1972, has held all the major public offices in Gibraltar, including that of Leader of the Opposition. Richard Garcia, a retired teacher, senior Civil Servant and former Chief Secretary, is no stranger to the Gibunco Gibraltar Literary Festival. He has written numerous books in recent years delving into the Rock's social history including the evolution of local commerce. An internationally recognised philatelist, Mr Garcia will be presenting his latest work commemorating the 50th anniversary of the event’s main sponsor, the Gibunco Group, and the Bassadone family history since 1737. Mary Chiappe, half of the successful writing tandem behind the locally flavoured detective series ‘The Bresciano Mysteries’ – the other half being Sam Benady – returns to the festival with her literary associate to delight audiences with the suggestively titled ‘The Dead Can’t Paint’, seventh and final instalment of their detective series.

    HM GOVERNMENT OF GIBRALTAR MINISTRY FOR SPORTS, CULTURE, HERITAGE & YOUTH GIBRALTAR YOUTH SERVICE Montagu Bastion Line Wall Road Gibraltar PRESS RELEASE No. 849/2012 Date: 20 th December 2012 PLATER YOUTH CLUB ACTIVITIES A group of members from Plater Youth Club has been participating in a programme of activities since September 2012. This began with a door-to- door flyer campaign in the Upper Town which aimed to promote the club and to encourage new participation for the next months. In order to strengthen links with the Tenants’ Association in the Upper Town area, a questionnaire has been circulated to determine young peoples’ needs in the area. These questionnaires can be handed into Olly stores in Moorish castle estate and everyone is encouraged to participate in this survey. Current club members have been bowling and ice skating at the Kings Bastion Leisure Centre whilst, at the club, popular activities have included cooking, group meetings, table tennis and playing pool. There has also been a well-attended structured programme called ‘Life Choice’ which looks at the various issues of having a baby in your life and family. A popular subject was ‘the baby budget’ where the group went into town to a chemist and to other shops that sell items people needed for a new- born baby. The programme ends with interactive hands-on parenting class and parenting weekend experience using a realcare baby simulator. A meeting took place at Dolphins Youth Club to discuss the theme and participation for the Three Kings Cavalcade Float in January 2013. Here the people from the Youth Centre, Dolphins and Plater had to agree on the most popular theme as one of this year’s floats organised by the Youth Service will have the participation and involvement of all three clubs.

  • 1 Impressions from the Rock of Gibraltar
    IMPRESSIONS FROM THE ROCK OF GIBRALTAR: THE JOURNAL OF A TRAVELLING TEACHER (AUGUST 29-DECEMBER 3, 2009) J.A. McLean 2010 Good to Go: August 20, 2009 Within only nine days left before departure, things have fallen into place for Gibraltar. Janet Waterfield, a kind friend of English Bahá’í, Ann Dymond, informed me by telephone that she has a flat available to rent at 503 Neptune House, Marina Bay. The good news is that the flat is available for the whole three months duration of my stay. Janet recently made the acquaintance of senior believer, Ann, who was the first Bahá’í who came to Gibraltar in Holy Year 1992, the centenary of Bahá’u’lláh’s ascension. I have never been to that small, densely populated (7 square kilometres) overseas territory of Great Britain, but I understand that Marina Bay is a fine, central location. Sam Benoit, a recent university graduate and son of old friends, Wendy James and Bernard Benoit, is going to sublet my furnished apartment. This will be a great help since I won’t have to carry two rents at the same time Any pioneer or travel-teacher should not forget that serving the Faith, although it brings confirmations and rewards, can also bring tests and difficulties. They are a built-in component of service. I suppose that if Bahá’u’lláh did not find that His believers had the capacity for spiritual growth and service, He would not put us to the test at all. But as ‘Abdu’l-Bahá has written, these tests prove to be either stumbling-blocks or stepping-stones, just as we make them.

    The Line and the Limit of Britishness: The Construction ∗ of Gibraltarian Identity in M. G. Sanchez’s Writing ANA Mª MANZANAS CALVO Institution address: Universidad de Salamanca. Departamento de Filología Inglesa. Facultad de Filología. Plaza de Anaya s/n. 37008 Salamanca. Spain. E-mail: [email protected] ORCID: 0000-0001-9830-638X Received: 30/01/2017. Accepted 25/02/2017 How to cite this article: Manzanas Calvo, Ana Mª “The Line and the Limit of Britishness: The Construction of Gibraltarian Identity in M. G. Sanchez’s Writing.” ES Review. Spanish Journal of English Studies 38 (2017): 27‒45. DOI: https://doi.org/ 10.24197/ersjes.38.2017.27-45 Abstract: From Anthony Burgess’s musings during the Second World War to recent scholarly assessments, Gibraltar has been considered a no man’s literary land. However, the Rock has produced a steady body of literature written in English throughout the second half of the twentieth century and into the present. Apparently situated in the midst of two identitary deficits, Gibraltarian literature occupies a narrative space that is neither British nor Spanish but something else. M. G. Sanchez’s novels and memoir situate themselves in this liminal space of multiple cultural traditions and linguistic contami-nation. The writer anatomizes this space crossed and partitioned by multiple and fluid borders and boundaries. What appears as deficient or lacking from the British and the Spanish points of view, the curse of the periphery, the curse of inhabiting a no man’s land, is repossessed in Sanchez’s writing in order to flesh out a border culture with very specific linguistic and cultural traits.
