  • The Memory of Slavery in Liverpool in Public Discourse from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day
    The Memory of Slavery in Liverpool in Public Discourse from the Nineteenth Century to the Present Day Jessica Moody PhD University of York Department of History April 2014 Abstract This thesis maps the public, collective memory of slavery in Liverpool from the beginning of the nineteenth century to the present day. Using a discourse-analytic approach, the study draws on a wide range of ‘source genres’ to interrogate processes of collective memory across written histories, guidebooks, commemorative occasions and anniversaries, newspapers, internet forums, black history organisations and events, tours, museums, galleries and the built environment. By drawing on a range of material across a longue durée, the study contributes to a more nuanced understanding of how this former ‘slaving capital of the world’ has remembered its exceptional involvement in transatlantic slavery across a two hundred year period. This thesis demonstrates how Liverpool’s memory of slavery has evolved through a chronological mapping (Chapter Two) which places memory in local, national and global context(s). The mapping of memory across source areas is reflected within the structure of the thesis, beginning with ‘Mapping the Discursive Terrain’ (Part One), which demonstrates the influence and intertextuality of identity narratives, anecdotes, metaphors and debates over time and genre; ‘Moments of Memory’ (Part Two), where public commemorative occasions, anniversaries and moments of ‘remembrance’ accentuate issues of ‘performing’ identity and the negotiation of a dissonant past; and ‘Sites of Memory’ (Part Three), where debate and discourse around particular places in Liverpool’s contested urban terrain have forged multiple lieux de memoire (sites of memory) through ‘myths’ of slave bodies and contestations over race and representation.

They become unusable or no longer meet increasing expectations about com- EDITORIAL fort and space. Sometimes they are simply not impressive enough for new users or functions. These circumstances make the desire for something new only too under- standable. But there are good reasons for not acceding to calls for renewal invariably and unthinkingly. RE-NEW Renovating an old building uses up to two thirds less material than an equiva- lent new building – saving the equivalent amount of energy for producing and trans- porting materials, as Thomas Lemken writes in his article for Daylight&Architecture. Many old buildings additionally possess unrivalled construction qualities – whether a “bonus” in terms of room height and width or details and decorations in the work- manship no longer found in new buildings. Often, however, these aesthetic qualities are hidden, and it takes the work of an architect to bring them to light. In his article “More space, more light” in this issue, Hubertus Adam describes how this can hap- pen. However, existing buildings in our cities and villages also represent an unparal- leled challenge. Badly insulated old buildings are among humanity’s greatest energy wasters.

The Bluecoat Chambers simultaneously stands apart and remains entwined with the commercial traffic of the city. As the trade of Liverpool expanded throughout the 19th century, the city surrounded the old school. The school’s pupils with their long dark coats belted at the waist, with white neck decoration, would struggle to school through the throng at the heart of the second city of the Empire. In 1906 the school institution left for the suburbs of Wavertree, and the building was saved again by a wealthy philanthropist. It was bought by William Lever, later Viscount Leverhulme, who founded 10 the soap manufacturer Lever Brothers (now part Bluecoat Chambers is the oldest building in Liverpool’s of Unilever). He built the model worker’s settlement, city centre and one of those remarkable buildings that Port Sunlight on the opposite bank of the Mersey. stories cling to. It was built as a school for orphans He bought the Isle of Lewis in Scotland and then through the largesse of one Bryan Blundell, a master gave it to its inhabitants. Lever had the intention mariner, who settled in Liverpool in 1708 to trade. of turning Bluecoat Chambers into an art gallery According to the writer Henry Bourne, ‘It was certainly but was prevented from doing so by the First World a happy thought that led honest Bryan Blundell to War.

J.-Pedro LORENTE Liverpool is undoubtedly one of the best study cases one could choose to discuss the role of museums and the arts in the regeneration of deprived urban areas. Previous work on this topic had shown very interesting examples in districts of New York, Baltimore, Paris, Dublin, Barcelona, Berlin or London. But obviously in such rich and burgeoning cities urban revitalisation has been boosted by an array of vested interests, among which the arts sector was just one component -and not necessarily the most consequential.

    Adrian Henri and the Merseybeat movement: performance, poetry, and public in the Liverpool scene of the 1960s Helen Louise Taylor Royal Holloway, University of London A thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, 2013 1 For, and because of, my parents. 2 DECLARATION OF AUTHORSHIP I, Helen Louise Taylor, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: . Date: . 3 THESIS ABSTRACT Adrian Henri and the Merseybeat movement: performance, poetry, and public in the Liverpool scene of the 1960s The thesis focuses on the Merseybeat movement and its manifestations in Liverpool in the 1960s, with particular emphasis on the work of Adrian Henri. The Merseybeat movement – centred upon Adrian Henri, Roger McGough, and Brian Patten – was a site-specific confluence of the alternative avant-garde and the British populist tradition of art, and deserves exploration as both a literary and a cultural phenomenon. The thesis argues that the dismissal of Merseybeat as ‘pop poetry’ has come from using the wrong critical tools: it is better viewed as a ‘total art’ movement, encompassing not only poetry but also visual art, music, comedy, happenings, and other forms of artistic expression. The thesis is primarily concerned with the performative and collaborative aspects of Merseybeat. As well as considering this particular movement in terms of oral performance and audience communication, this research also contributes to our understanding of the dissemination of this poetry – particularly how its audiences experienced live poetry alongside other artforms and media.
