  • The Boats of Swallows and Amazons
    The Boats of Swallows and Amazons Amazon on Coniston Contents Introduction The Swallow Rowing the Swallow Rigging the Swallow A letter from Roger Fothergill, an owner of the original Swallow Unknown Details The Amazon Sailing Performance Assesements Design Recommendations for new Swallows The Nancy Blackett and the Goblin The Best Boat? Design Recommendations for new Swallows Introduction What exactly were the Swallow and the Amazon like, those famous sailboats of Arthur Ransome's books Swallows and Amazons and Swallowdale? Many readers would love to recreate the adventures of the Walker and Blackett children for themselves, or for their own children, and they want to learn more about the boats. The boats of these special stories were real boats, just as many of the locations in the stories are real places. This essay describes what we know of the Swallow and the Amazon. In the summer of 1928, Ernest Altounyan, a friend of Arthur Ransome, came to Coniston Water with his family and soon thereafter bought two boats for his children. The children were Taqui (age eleven), Susan (age nine), Titty (age eight), Roger (age six), and Bridgit (nearly three). The children became the models for characters in Arthur Ransome's books, and the boats became the Swallow and Amazon. Susan and Roger crewed the Swallow, while Taqui and Titty crewed the Mavis, which was the model for the Amazon. The Mavis (Amazon), may be seen today, in good order, at the Windermere Steamboat Museum near Lake Windermere. When the Altounyans later moved to Syria, they gave the Swallow to Arthur Ransome, who lived at Low Ludderburn near Lake Windermere.

  • Diana Wynne Jones Saying That Her Novels ‘Provide a Space Where Children Can
    University of Wollongong Research Online Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts - Papers Faculty of Law, Humanities and the Arts 2009 "Mum’s a silly fusspot”: the queering of family in Diana Wynne Ika Willis University of Bristol, [email protected] Publication Details I.

Research Online is the open access institutional repository for the University of Wollongong. For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] "Mum’s a silly fusspot”: the queering of family in Diana Wynne Abstract In Four British Fantasists, Butler cites Diana Wynne Jones saying that her novels ‘provide a space where children can... walk round their problems and think “Mum’s a silly fusspot and I don’t need to be quite so enslaved by her notions”‘ (267). That is, as I will argue in this paper, Jones’ work aims to provide readers with the emotional, narrative and intellectual resources to achieve a critical distance from their families of origin. I will provide a brief survey of the treatment of family in Jones’ children’s books, with particular reference to Charmed Life, The Lives of Christopher Chant, The grO e Downstairs, Cart and Cwidder, Drowned Ammet, The omeH ward Bounders and Hexwood, and then narrow my focus to two of Jones’ classic 4 treatments of family: Eight Days of Luke and Archer’s Goon. I will read these books in terms of the ways in which their child protagonists reposition themselves in relation to family in the course of their narratives.

  • Foreword by Sophie Neville
    Foreword How many of us have grown up under the strident crossed flags of the Swallows and the Amazons? How many children have gazed at line drawings that rarely show faces and yet immerse them in a world they can map out for themselves as they let their imaginations run free? Arthur Ransome’s well-loved series of classic books about the Swallows, Amazons and Coots, along with a few Eels, have graced the shelves of bookshops since the 1930s. As a child, my father looked forward to the publication of each new hardback almost every Christmas. Oh, that he had kept those first editions! Instead he bought Puffin paperbacks for me. I devoured them all, ever-eager to go camping and explore wild places, imagining myself sometimes as Susan, sometimes as Nancy or Peggy. Ransome literally taught me to sail a small boat and camp effectively, just as he taught so many others. He wrote as if he himself were living the adventures, which of course he was. The only thing he failed to describe was the reality of outdoor temperatures. It seems he was quite impervious to the cold. Although I never saw myself as a competent able-seaman, I was fortunate enough to play Titty Walker in the 1974 feature film of Swallows and Amazons,SAMPLE with Virginia McKenna as ‘the best of all natives’. Since the Blu-ray has been re-mastered for cinemas, I can still be seen rowing Amazon across Derwentwater as a shivering twelve- year-old, wearing no more than a cotton dress, grey cardigan and an enormous pair of navy blue gym knickers.
