Alfred Harmsworth, Lord Northcliffe (1865-1922), acquired The Times newspaper in 1908. In adding the most influential and reliable voice of the British establishment and of Imperially- fostered globalisation to his growing portfolio of newspapers and magazines, Northcliffe aroused some opposition among those who feared that he would rely on his seemingly infallible ear for the popular note and lower the tone and weaken the authority of The Times. Northcliffe had long hoped to prise this trophy from the control of the Walters family, convinced of his ability to make more of the paper than they had, and from the beginning applied his singular energy and intuition to improving the fortunes of ‘The Thunderer’.

Approximately 500 people died within the city as a result of these tensions. There existed marked spatial variation in patterns of fatality during these original ‘Troubles’ which accompanied the creation of the Northern Ireland state. This paper will present findings from research into this period which makes use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) technology to analyse the spatial distribution and impact of political and sectarian deaths in the early years of the 1920s. 2 The Social Geography of Violence During the Belfast Troubles, 1920-22 The Social Geography of Violence During the Belfast Troubles, 1920-22 Introduction The Troubles in Northern Ireland from the late 1960s through to the end of the twentieth century have been the subject

  • The Modern Woman of the 1920S
    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION ONTEMPORAR Y HE WENTIES IN OMMENTARY T T C * Library of Congress Women’s Industrial Conference, Washington DC, January 18-21, 1926, panoramic photograph (detail) The MODERN WOMAN In this collection of commentary from periodicals, novels, advertisements, a sociological study, and more, we are not considering the “flapper,” the rebellious young woman exploring new freedoms who came to personify the twenties in later times. Here we study the phenomenon of the “modern woman” as she was revered or reviled at the time—newly enfranchised by the 19th Amendment, entering the job market and the political arena in greater numbers than ever, and redefining marriage, motherhood, and “womanliness” for a new era. Long established as the dean of modern “scientific” homemaking, Christine Frederick took on Christine M. Frederick the role of consumer advocate in the 1920s, publishing Selling Mrs. Consumer to enlighten advertisers on the unique aspects of marketing to the modern American woman. Selling Mrs. Consumer 1929 To begin with, it is very important to realize to the full the special position of women in the United States as contrasted with the rest of the world. Woman has never before attained, in any country, the psychological position that she enjoys in America. This status is so astounding to visitors from other countries that they often feel a sharp shock of surprise and revulsion; while even some of our young satiric novelists, like Sinclair Lewis and Louis Bromfield, who spend enough time in Europe to note the contrasts, are convinced that American women autocratically “rule the roost,” and that American men exist and labor largely to pour more spending money into their wives’ laps.
