  • Visions of the End in Interwar British Art Thomas Bromwell Phd
    Visions of the End in Interwar British Art Thomas Bromwell PhD University of York History of Art September 2019 Abstract The cessation of hostilities to the Great War with the signing of the Armistice on 11 November 1918 brought the largest and most devastating war hitherto known to an end. It was meant to be the “War to End War”, yet a little over twenty years later in 1939 it was eclipsed by the devastation of the Second World War. The shadow of war loomed over the intervening years, which were marked by pronounced speculation on where human society was going; for every prophet of doom anticipating collapse into degradation, animosity, and self-annihilation there was a contrasting viewpoint awaiting the move towards a better new world. Further, these assessments often overlapped. This thesis examines the impact of apocalyptic ideas within British art in the interwar years. It looks at painting, drawings, prints, and sculpture, addressing the use and development of apocalyptic concepts during the period 1918-1939, and explicitly relates contemporary anxieties and apocalyptic evocations with Christian apocalyptic narratives. Interwar British society at large identified with Christian traditions, either as products of a Christian education and state, or through belief. The Apocalypse is central to Christian hope. The project surveys this underappreciated aspect of the period in order to recognize the influence of Judeo-Christian apocalyptic traditions. The apocalyptic orientation, both in its religious and secular forms, has been recognised as a manifestation arising from anxiety in the contemporary context. This thesis reveals a British permutation of a general (European) trend.

She is certainly unpredictable and instinctive like Lollobrigida, Well, he is charming like Marcello Mastroianni in La dolce but she's also graceful and knows how to behave, like Audrey vita. But he's also strapping like Brad Pitt in the Fight Club. Hepburn. She's girlish, like Audrey Tautou but cool and distant He is boyish like Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic... or more like like Greta Garbo. She is funny and familiar like Julia Roberts, Alain Delon in Rocco and His Brothers, just a little bit taller, but her smile is like Ava Gardner's. She is divine, like Sophia maybe like Belmondo. He is devastating like Clark Gable and Loren, but it's not a problem if she resembles Monica sometimes a little bit melancholy, like Tony Leung Chiu Wai Bellucci... and at the same time she's ethereal like Liv Tyler in In The Mood For Love.

We still have places to start September 2019 SUMMER 2019 YR. 13 LAST DAY SHENANIGANS Friday 24 May was both a proud and happy moment but also a slightly sad one as we said goodbye to our current Bewdley Sixth Form Year 13 students. The day began with a ‘bang,’ as many Sixth Formers came in fancy dress and wowed students with their inventiveness. from The whole atmosphere of the day was one of celebration and achievement. Mrs Howard, Head of Sixth Form said, ‘Many members of staff were present during the Leavers’ Assembly to say a fond farewell and wish Head of Bewdley Sixth Form them all the best. It was at this point that I shared a few of my favourite moments. I would like to take this opportunity to express how proud we are of all our students and are confident that they will all do well. Friday was a celebration of achievements and of their bright futures. It has been a privilege to have been their Head of Year and we will miss them all.’ FOND fareWELL YR.13 PROM CELEBRATIONS On Thursday 27th June, Year 13 hosted their Prom at The Granary, a lovely rural hotel, in Shenstone, Kidderminster, with some students returning from much deserved holidays in Crete, Cornwall and Rhodes, only days (or hours earlier!) There was certainly a lot to catch up on since their final day at Sixth Form in May.

Inspired by Giuseppe Mazzini’s spiritual brand of romantic cosmopolitan nationalism, as well as Giuseppe Garibaldi’s military campaigns, and believing that women had a god-given duty to provide education, morality, and uplift to oppressed groups, they worked to provide Italy not only with physical unification but also moral regeneration.
