We should like to thank all of those who were involved in it: the staff of Sutton House, particularly Christopher Cleeve and Robyn Finney for their generous hospitality and home-made cakes (which are still fondly remembered); Octavia Housing, particularly chief executive Grahame Hindes for facilitating the generous sponsorship of the conference, and staff members Hannah Thompson and Rachel Harrison who helped with its administration and the tour of housing sites with which it ended; Jessica Hindes of Royal Holloway, University of London, for her invaluable and self-effacing help with the conference’s planning and execution; the opening speaker, Dame Fiona Reynolds, director general of the National Trust, for setting the scene so aptly; the session chairs − Dr. Peter Funnell of the National Portrait Gallery, Professor Charles Watkins, of the University of Nottingham, Loyd Grossman of The Heritage Alliance, Samuel Jones of Tate, and Jessica Hindes − for ably introducing our speakers and guiding our discussion; the participants for lively questions and pleasant conversations; and all the speakers, including those whose papers became chapters in this volume, but also our graduate student speakers whose papers greatly added to the conference’s first day. The process of translating the conference papers into a book has had to fit around many busy schedules, and it is a pleasure to thank the publishers, particularly Jane Winters, professor of digital history and head of publications at the Institute of Historical Research (IHR), University of London, and all the contributors for seeing the project through to the end. The book has benefited greatly from its illustrations, made possible by a grant from the Scouloudi Foundation, in association with the IHR, for which we are most grateful. We hope the images and maps increase readers’ use and enjoyment of the volume. The institutions and individuals who have made their images available to us are credited alongside the relevant illustration, but are warmly thanked here, particularly where they did so at no or a reduced cost. Giles Darkes’s expert help with cartography is warmly acknowledged. Many institutions have helped the contributors and editors of this book: the National Trust has supported the project in a number of ways, including as partner in the conference and as the custodian of the archives on which several contributors depended (archival staff Janette Harley and Iain Shaw vii ‘Nobler imaginings and mightier struggles’ deserve particular thanks). The Octavia Hill Birthplace Museum Trust, Wisbech, under its director Peter Clayton has been a supportive presence, while Patricia McGuire, archivist, King’s College, Cambridge, has given generous assistance to various authors. Other institutions and individuals are named separately in the chapter footnotes. Finally, thanks must go to our families (Hugh, Bertie, Charlie and Harry, Julie, Reuben and Toby) for their patience: their knowledge of the little lady in the mushroom hat, as C. R. Ashbee memorably called Octavia Hill, is probably more extensive than they’d bargained for. This book is dedicated to them.

  • Historical and Contemporary Archaeologies of Social Housing: Changing Experiences of the Modern and New, 1870 to Present
    Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Emma Dwyer School of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester 2014 Thesis abstract: Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Emma Dwyer This thesis has used building recording techniques, documentary research and oral history testimonies to explore how concepts of the modern and new between the 1870s and 1930s shaped the urban built environment, through the study of a particular kind of infrastructure that was developed to meet the needs of expanding cities at this time – social (or municipal) housing – and how social housing was perceived and experienced as a new kind of built environment, by planners, architects, local government and residents. This thesis also addressed how the concepts and priorities of the Victorian and Edwardian periods, and the decisions made by those in authority regarding the form of social housing, continue to shape the urban built environment and impact on the lived experience of social housing today. In order to address this, two research questions were devised: How can changing attitudes and responses to the nature of modern life between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries be seen in the built environment, specifically in the form and use of social housing? Can contradictions between these earlier notions of the modern and new, and our own be seen in the responses of official authority and residents to the built environment? The research questions were applied to three case study areas, three housing estates constructed between 1910 and 1932 in Birmingham, London and Liverpool.

THE GILD MERCHANT A CONTRIBUTION TO ffiritisb Municipal CHARLES GROSS, PH. D. INSTRUCTOR IN HISTORY, HARVARD UNIVERSITY VOLUME I AT THE CLARENDON PRESS 1890 [ All rights reserved ] PRINTED AT THE CLARENDON PRESS BY HORACE HART, PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY HO v,; PREFACE. THIS book arose to some extent from the author's German ' doctoral dissertation, entitled Gilda Mercatoria' (Gottingen, 1883). The latter was based mainly on printed sources, and did not aim at exhausting the subject. The present work is based mainly on manuscript materials, and in it the author aspires to throw light on the development not merely of gilds but also of the municipal constitution. Much fresh and clas- sified material illustrating general municipal history will be found in the text and footnotes. " The shortcomings of many of the ordinary authorities on the history of gilds and boroughs are touched on in Vol. I. p. I, and in Appendix A. Appendix B (Anglo-Saxon Gilds) could not be dispensed with, inasmuch as many writers confuse Anglo-Saxon gilds with the Gild Merchant. The Scotch Gild Merchant and the Continental Gild Merchant (App. D and F) require separate treatment, because their development was different from that of the corresponding English institution, although most writers fail to notice this distinction. Appendix C (The English Hanse) and Appendix E (Affiliation of Boroughs) will, it is hoped, be as welcome to Continental as to English historians. The list of authorities at the end of Vol.

  • London Borough of Lambeth
    LONDON BOROUGH OF LAMBETH LAMBETH ARCHIVES DEPARTMENT Reference number IV/224 Title Morley College Covering dates 1888-2013 Physical extent 29 boxes & 2 volumes Creator Morley College Administrative history Morley College originated in the work of the Coffee Music Halls Company Ltd. who promoted temperance and the arts in London. The college was established by Emma Cons, a visionary and social reformer who fought to improve standards of London’s Waterloo district. In 1880, Cons, with the support of the Coffee Music Halls Company Ltd. leased what is now known as the ‘Old Vic’ theatre and created the Royal Victoria Coffee and Music Hall. In 1882 the hall began to host weekly lectures in which eminent scientists would address the public on a wide range of topics. The success of these lectures led to the establishment of Morley Memorial College for working men and women, named after Samuel Morley, a textile manufacturer, MP and philanthropist who contributed to Morley College. In the 1920s the college moved to Westminster Bridge Road where it remains today although it has since expanded and now includes Morley Gallery and Arts Studio and the Nancy Seear Building. The college has attracted eminent staff including composer Gustav Holst, Director of Music 1907- 1924, a post later filled by Sir Michael Kemp Tippet, 1940-1951. Other high profile personalities associated with the college include composer Ralph Vaughn Williams, writer Virginia Woolf and artist David Hockney.

  • Teaching Eighteenth-Century French Literature: the Good, the Bad and the Ugly
    Eighteenth-Century Modernities: Present Contributions and Potential Future Projects from EC/ASECS (The 2014 EC/ASECS Presidential Address) by Christine Clark-Evans It never occurred to me in my research, writing, and musings that there would be two hit, cable television programs centered in space, time, and mythic cultural metanarrative about 18th-century America, focusing on the 1760s through the 1770s, before the U.S. became the U.S. One program, Sleepy Hollow on the FOX channel (not the 1999 Johnny Depp film) represents a pre- Revolutionary supernatural war drama in which the characters have 21st-century social, moral, and family crises. Added for good measure to several threads very similar to Washington Irving’s “Legend of Sleepy Hollow” story are a ferocious headless horseman, representing all that is evil in the form of a grotesque decapitated man-demon, who is determined to destroy the tall, handsome, newly reawakened Rip-Van-Winkle-like Ichabod Crane and the lethal, FBI-trained, diminutive beauty Lt. Abigail Mills. These last two are soldiers for the politically and spiritually righteous in both worlds, who themselves are fatefully inseparable as the only witnesses/defenders against apocalyptic doom. While the main characters in Sleepy Hollow on television act out their protracted, violent conflict against natural and supernatural forces, they also have their own high production-level, R & B-laced, online music video entitled “Ghost.” The throaty feminine voice rocks back and forth to accompany the deft montage of dramatic and frightening scenes of these talented, beautiful men and these talented, beautiful women, who use as their weapons American patriotism, religious faith, science, and wizardry.
