Sisson, 1937-1980 Henry Marcus King M.A. M.Litt. Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Critical Studies College of Arts University of Glasgow September 2013 © Henry King 2013 Abstract This thesis explores the relationship between government and poetry in the verse, essays, and translations of Charles Hubert Sisson (1914-2003). Theories of sovereignty and government drawn from the work of Giorgio Agamben are used to interrogate these issues in Sisson’s critical and creative writing. Sisson’s work is contextualised within the politics of post-WWII Britain, taking in such issues as the altered relationship between the arts and the state, the decline of the British Empire and the subsequent influx of Commonwealth immigration, the changing status of the monarchy, and the importance of the environment. The thesis is divided into five chapters. The first comprises a preliminary theoretical excursus, focussing on poems by Sisson and C. Day Lewis. The second analyses Sisson’s portrayal of the country and the city, and his own position in relation to them. The third places Sisson’s work in the context of the changing nature of laureateship in the era 1945-1976, comparing his work with that of Philip Larkin and C. Day Lewis. The fourth investigates the politics of translating Virgil after the Second World War, and especially after Enoch Powell’s ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech of April 1968. The final chapter returns to Sisson’s wartime and immediately post-war writings, especially on the subject of India, before moving on to the poems collected in Exactions (1980).

I have always received unstinting kindness and generosity from all members of the department, and gratefully wish it all prosperity in the future. In particular, my thanks are due to the staff who have guided this project: Michael Schmidt, for introducing me to Sisson’s work and so instigating my research, and for encouraging me as a writer; to John Coyle for joining my supervisory team, and for his inspirational teaching at undergraduate and Masters levels; and above all to Rhian Williams, without whose unwavering patience and tact, and apparently intuitive understanding of what I myself was fumblingly trying to achieve, this project would not have come to fruition. I would also like to thank the members of the department who have been involved in reviewing my work: Alex Benchimol, Christine Ferguson and Vassiliki Kolokotroni. For the last four years my work has been nourished and my sanity maintained by the fantastic postgraduate community at Glasgow. I would especially like to thank (in alphabetical order): Cara Berger, Tom Betteridge, Tom Coles, Fabienne Collignon, Rebecca Dewald, Andrew Eadie, Nina Enemark, Robby Guillory, Villy Karagouni, Graham Riach, Calum Roger, Lil Rose, Andrew Rubens, Derek Ryan, Stewart Sanderson, Mark West, and Sam Wiseman. I would especially like to thank all those involved with the Theory@Random study group (particularly its founders, Derek Ryan and Mark West), who challenged and enriched my ideas. In the third year of my research, my time in York was brightened by Ben Bartlett, John Bryant, Terry Davies, Amy Johnson, Peggity Pollard-Davey, Nick Rowland, and Shushan Tewolde-Berhan. I am grateful to the Arts and Humanities Research Council for funding my Ph.D., as before it my M.Litt. Thanks also to Valerie Stringfellow for her help in securing and administering my funding. I would also like to thank the Special Collections departments at the Universities of Bristol and Leeds, and Stella Halkyard at the Rylands Library Manchester, for their assistance with my archival research. Innumerable people have contributed in small ways to my research, but I would like to thank those who have taken the time to correspond with me and answer my questions or give me advice: Bob Archambeau, Geoffrey Hill, John Peck, J.H. Prynne, W.G. Shepherd (R.I.P.), John Talbot and Charles Tomlinson. Many people have assisted my research by putting a roof over my head, none more often than Mike Emery. Thanks also to Tessa Cook and her family for looking after me in Bristol; to Alex King, Annabel Gregory and Ellie for being my hosts in London; to Nichola Hornsby in Fife; and to my ever-reliable friends in Glasgow, V Mark & Lil, Henry & Livi, Villy and Martin. Most especially, I would like to thank Janet Louth for her hospitality at Moorfield Cottage, and to her and Charlie Louth for their interest in my research. I owe a debt of love to those friends who have always supported and cheered me: Leo Clark, Stewart McCain, Alice Beckett and Sophie Lippiatt. Extra thanks to Aidan O’Brien for his inspiration, faith, and practical help with moving house. To my family and their unconditional love, I owe more than I can begin to tally. Finally, I dedicate this work to the person who has become an inadvertent expert on C.H. Sisson by dint of sharing every part of my life, Maisie Geelen.

Sisson, Selected Poems audio cassette (Bournemouth: Canto Publications 1987) VII Introduction: A Dual Career For thirty years, C.H. Sisson pursued a dual career: a civil servant by day, and by night, as it were, a writer. Though not unique in this – he records that when he started work in the Ministry of Labour, Humbert Wolfe and F.S. Flint were also to be found there (OLO: 170) – the details of these two aspects make his case an unusual one. As a civil servant, Sisson’s career began before the Second World War and culminated in the position of Under Secretary, which he occupied from 1962 till 1973. Simultaneously with his administrative career, Sisson published two novels, three collections of poetry, translations from three languages, and a volume of literary criticism, as well as a study of public administration and a critical biography of the Victorian economist and constitutional theorist Walter Bagehot. After retiring from the civil service, he went on to publish six more poetry collections, numerous translations (of Dante, Virgil, Lucretius and Racine, among others), and a voluminous output of criticism. The weight of his official experience – “[n]o English poet”, as Robert Wells (2009) states, “has had greater experience of public affairs and the practical business of government” – is matched by the distinction of his literary oeuvre, leading Donald Davie (PNR: 2-9) to compare him with Czeslaw Milosz. Unsurprisingly therefore, Sisson displays, as Geoffrey Hill (PNR: 11) has noted, a ‘keen engagement’ with politics, whether in his poetry, his prose, or his translations. Indeed, Davie (1976: 86) argues that Sisson is among the few English poets of the late twentieth century who have ‘[a] politics […] on a par with, and indeed related to, a poetics’.

However it does apply to communications with members of the Royal Family held by public authorities. Under the Act, as amended in 2010, certain information relating to communications with the Sovereign and to the heir and second in line to the Throne is absolutely exempt from the Act, whereas information relating to other members of the Royal Family and the Royal Household is subject to the public interest test. Before the 2000 Act was amended in 2010 by the Constitutional Reform and Governance Act 2010, all of the information covered by the exemption for communications with members of the Royal Family had been subject to the public interest test.

    CAMINO REAL 2:3 (2010): 11-33 Celluloid Conquistadors: Images of the Conquest of Mexico in Captain from Castile (1947) STEPHEN A. COLSTON ABSTRACT The Spanish Conquest of Aztec Mexico (1519-21) forever transformed greater North America, Europe, and regions beyond. In spite of this significance, there is only one extant motion picture that has attempted to portray features of this epic event. Re- leased in 1947 by Twentieth Century-Fox, Captain from Castile was based on a novel of the same title and offers images of the Conquest that are intertwined with fact and fic- tion. Drawing upon the novel and elements of the Conquest story itself, this study se- parates and examines the threads of fact and fantasy that form the fundamental fabric of this film’s recounting of the Spanish Conquest. This analysis is enhanced by infor- mation found in unpublished documents from several collections of motion picture pro- duction materials. Ultimately, the images of the Spanish Conquest that emerge in Captain from Castile reveal some elements of genuine historicity but they more often reflect, in typical Hollywood fashion, the aspirations of a studio more concerned with achieving box office success than historical accuracy. Keywords: film, Hollywood, Conquest, Mexico, Cortés, Aztecs. Stephen A. Colston is an Associate Professor of History at San Diego State University.

    What’s the Use of Wondering if He’s Good or Bad?: Carousel and the Presentation of Domestic Violence in Musicals. Patricia ÁLVAREZ CALDAS Universidad de Santiago de Compostela [email protected] Recibido: 15.09.2012 Aceptado: 30.09.2012 ABSTRACT The analysis of the 1956 film Carousel (Dir. Henry King), which was based on the 1945 play by Rodgers and Hammerstein, provides a suitable example of a musical with explicit allusions to male physical aggression over two women: the wife and the daughter. The issue of domestic violence appears, thus, in a film genre in which serious topics such as these are rarely present. The film provide an opportunity to study how the expectations and the conventions brought up by this genre are capable of shaping and transforming the presentation of Domestic Violence. Because the audience had to sympathise with the protagonists, the plot was arranged to fulfil the conventional pattern of a romantic story inducing audiences forget about the dark themes that are being portrayed on screen. Key words: Domestic violence, film, musical, cultural studies. ¿De qué sirve preocuparse por si es bueno o malo?: Carrusel y la presentación de la violencia doméstica en los musicales. RESUMEN La película Carrusel (dirigida por Henry King en 1956 y basada en la obra de Rodgers y Hammerstein de 1945), nos ofrece un gran ejemplo de un musical que realiza alusiones explícitas a las agresiones que ejerce el protagonista masculino sobre su esposa y su hija. El tema de la violencia doméstica aparece así en un género fílmico en el que este tipo de tratamientos rara vez están presentes.

  • Pioneer Film Director Honored / HENRY KING
    The Museum of Modern Art 'iWest 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel. 956-6100 Cable: Modemart NO. 57 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE PIONEER FILM DIRECTOR HONORED SEVEN WEEK RETROSPECTIVE FOR HENRY KING CO-SPONSORED BY MUSEUM AND DIRECTORS GUILD OF AMERICA "...the most underpublicized filmmaker in Hollywood. This tall, lean, handsome, urbane, but unflamboyant model of a corporation president makes film hits so easily, so efficiently, and so calmly that he is not news in a community of blaring trumpets, crashing cymbals and screaming egos." -Frank Capra Henry King, one of the founding fathers of American film, who began his career early in the century, remains today one of the legendary figures in Hollywood, and though he preserves his privacy, his films such as "The Song of Bernadette," "Twelve O'clock High" and "The Gunfighter" speak for themselves, and these and other major works will be part of a seven week retrospective given in King's honor by New York's Museum of Modern Art in association with the Directors Guild of America. The Virginia-born director, who has specialized, like D.W. Griffith and John Ford, in Americana themes since his first classic, "Tol'able David," and later with "State Fair", "In Old Chicago," "Jesse James" and "Alexander's Ragtime Band," will make a trip from the West Coast to New York to participate in the opening of this program. On June 29 and 30, he will address the Museum audiences, although he seldom makes public appearances. While he contributed to Hollywood's worldwide reputation, King, who recognized such early superstars as Richard Barthelmess, Ronald Colman and Gary Cooper and gave them their first leading roles on the screen, has managed to retain his relative anonymity in an ostentatious environment.
