  • Yasha Gall, Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975
    Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975 Yasha Gall Published by Nauka, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2004 Reproduced as an e-book with kind permission of Nauka Science editor: Academician AL Takhtajan Preface by the Science Editor The 20th century was the epoch of discovery in evolutionary biology, marked by many fundamental investigations. Of special significance were the works of AN Severtsov, SS Chetverikov, S Wright, JBS Haldane, G De Beer JS Huxley and R Goldschmidt. Among the general works on evolutionary theory, the one of greatest breadth was Julian Huxley’s book Evolution: The Modern Synthesis (1942). Huxley was one of the first to analyze the mechanisms of macro-evolutionary processes and discuss the evolutionary role of neoteny in terms of developmental genetics (the speed of gene action). Neoteny—the most important mechanism of heritable variation of ontogenesis—has great macro-evolutionary consequences. A Russian translation of Huxley’s book on evolution was prepared for publication by Professor VV Alpatov. The manuscript of the translation had already been sent to production when the August session of the VASKNIL in 1948 burst forth—a destructive moment in the history of biology in our country. The publication was halted, and the manuscript disappeared. I remember well a meeting with Huxley in 1945 in Moscow and Leningrad during the celebratory jubilee at the Academy of Sciences. He was deeply disturbed by the “blossoming” of Lysenkoist obscurantism in biology. It is also important to note that in the 1950s Huxley developed original concepts for controlling the birth rate of the Earth’s population. He openly declared the necessity of forming an international institute at the United Nations, since the global ecosystem already could not sustain the pressure of human “activity” and, together with humanity, might itself die.

    TOM BROWN’S SCHOOLDAYS: DISCOVERING A VICTORIAN HEADMASTER IN RUGBY PUBLIC SCHOOL * CORTÉS GRANELL , Ana María Universitat de València Departament de Filologia Anglesa i Alemanya [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 11 de julio de 2013 Fecha de aceptación: 27 de julio de 2013 Título: Los días de escuela de Tom Brown: Descubriendo a un director victoriano en la Escuela Pública Rugby Resumen: Este artículo presenta la hipótesis que Thomas Arnold (1795-1842) mejoró y modeló al niño inglés medio para el Imperio Británico mientras que desempeñaba la función de director en la escuela pública Rugby (1828-1842). El estudio comienza por la introducción de la escuela pública en cuanto a su evolución y causas, además del nacimiento del mito de Arnold. La novela Tom Brown’s Schooldays de Thomas Hughes sirve para desarrollar nuestro entendimiento de lo genuino inglés a través del examen de una escuela pública modelo y sus constituyentes. Hemos realizado un análisis del personaje de Thomas Arnold mediante la comparación de un estudio de caso a partir de la novela de Hughes y dos películas adaptadas por Robert Stevenson (1940) y David Moore (2005). En las conclusiones ofrecemos la tesis que Thomas Arnold sólo pudo inculcar sus ideas por medio del antiguo sistema de los prefectos. Palabras clave: escuela pública, Rugby, Thomas Arnold, Thomas Hughes, inglés, prefecto. * This article was submitted for the subject Bachelor’s Degree Final Dissertation, and was supervised by Dr Laura Monrós Gaspar, lecturer in English Literature at the English and German Studies Department at the Universitat de València.

  • Hughes & Davies: Childhood Poverty in Wales and Its Implications for Schools
    HUGHES & DAVIES: CHILDHOOD POVERTY IN WALES AND ITS IMPLICATIONS FOR SCHOOLS - A SURVEY OF TRAINEE TEACHERS’ PERCEPTIONS Childhood poverty in Wales and its Teacher Education Advancement implications for schools - a survey of trainee Network Journal teachers’ perceptions Copyright © 2019 University of Cumbria Vol 11(1) pages 25-36 Sioned Hughes and Geraint Davies University of Wales Trinity Saint David Abstract With a third of all pupils in Wales in poverty it is essential that trainee teachers in the principality understand the nature of poverty and develop a practical understanding of how best to deal with its negative effects. In order to explore trainee teachers’ perceptions of these issues a detailed questionnaire was completed by 94 of the 96 third year trainee teachers on a BA in Primary Education with QTS programme at a university in Wales. The data revealed a mature understanding of the main issues. Childhood poverty was seen by the respondents as a state of material, educational and emotional deprivation which prevents children and young people from developing their potential as individuals and from developing into fully active members of society. The respondents felt that schools had a central role to play in tackling the negative effects of poverty and that there were a range of positive measures that all schools needed to take in order to achieve this. The data also revealed that there were some practical areas related to combating childhood poverty which the respondents were yet to gain full confidence in tackling. The survey has significant implications for all those concerned with childhood poverty and initial teacher education in Wales and beyond.

ARNOLD-BROWN FAMILY Adam Arnold-Brown started as a student at Gordonstoun in September 1934 (A. Arnold-Brown, 1962). During the Second World War he was stationed for a time at the Highland Field Training Centre at Glenfeshie in the Cairngorms (Arnold- Brown, 1962). In 1950, he became the first Warden of Outward Bound Eskdale in the Lake District (Arnold-Brown, 1962). Prior to joining Gordonstoun A. Arnold-Brown had been a student at Abbotsholme (Arnold-Brown, 1962). He probably went there because his father, Robert Arnold- Forster, was an ex-student of the school and was on Abbotsholme’s executive comm- ittee (Arnold-Brown, 1962). Unusually R. Arnold-Brown was sent to Abbotsholme at the insistence of his sister Lillian, rather than his parents (Arnold-Brown, 1962). His sister later married Sir Patrick Geddes (Arnold-Brown, 1962), educational inno- vator, supporter of Abbotsholme and friend of Abbotsholme’s founder Cecil Reddie (see chapter 4). R. Arnold-Brown was also one of the Abbotsholme students who met Hahn in the Alps in 1902 and gave him the book Emlohstobba which Lietz had written about Abbotsholme and which influenced Hahn’s life (Arnold-Brown, 1962) – see Chapter 1.
