PREFACE This is the third edition, with additions and amendments (and a renumbering), of the edition originally published in 2004 by White Sheep Press. The intention of this checklist is to list all of the writings published by Abercrombie (although there are almost certainly a large number of book reviews and articles for the Nation that have not been traced). However, without this essential building block, which puts his works into context, meaningful analysis and criticism of his work is difficult. This is a working document, and if you would like to help make it a definitive list, please send any amendments and additions to me at [email protected]. They will be incorporated in the list and acknowledged. The format of the checklist is chronological, in order of first publication in periodical and book form. It should be borne in mind that there is a bibliographical hierarchy: contributions to periodicals, then contributions to books, and finally principal books.

  • The Medieval Manuscripts in Leeds University Library
    The Medieval Manuscripts in Leeds University Library Oliver Pickering and Katja Airaksinen The online publication in September 2008 of some 685 images of illuminated pages in Leeds manuscripts, opening the collection to the world, has prompted this wider survey of the University Library’s medieval holdings. Twenty-seven manuscripts qualified for the digitisation project in containing illumination. There are as many manuscripts again in terms of codices, along with a considerable number of documents and fragments.1 The most important items came to the Library in 1936 as part of the Brotherton Collection, the private library amassed in the 1920s by the Yorkshire industrialist Sir Edward Allen Brotherton, who was ennobled shortly before his death in 1930 as Baron Brotherton of Wakefield. But this event will be treated here as the main highlight in a broader account of benefaction to and acquisition by Leeds University Library. Lord Brotherton’s collection, when it arrived, gave the Library’s medieval holdings both coherence and substance, but he had earlier joined with other local benefactors in 1925 in presenting a single medieval manuscript, a copy of the Anglo-Norman didactic verse treatise, Le Manuel des péchés, counted amongst the general run of the Library’s manuscripts (MS 1).2 This is a relatively modest production of the early fourteenth century, having a two- column layout typical of vernacular verse manuscripts of that date, with the initial letters of each line slightly offset and picked out in red. There are significant omissions from the text, which the scribe is said to have treated ‘fort librement’.3 However, the Library first acquired a medieval manuscript, a copy of Juvenal’s Satires (MS 4), in October 1921, a purchase (for five guineas) from a bookseller’s catalogue.

  • Capability Brown at Temple Newsam
    Capability Brown Capability at Temple Newsam Brown Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown (1716-1783) was born in the Northumberland village of Kirkharle, and went on to popularise the English landscape style, advising on over 250 large country estates throughout England and Wales. Formal gardens gave way to naturalistic parkland of trees, expanses of water and rolling grass. He also designed great houses, churches and garden buildings, and was skilled in engineering, especially with water. This guide was created as part of a festival celebrating the 300th anniversary of his birth. Find out more about Temple Newsam © Temple Newsam and Leeds City Council the man and his work at capabilitybrown.org/ Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown remodelled the gardens at Temple Newsam in research 1765–1771 for the 9th Viscount Irwin. Brown’s master plan for Temple Newsam, near Leeds, West Yorkshire, is dated 1762. He had been invited to Portrait of Lancelot ‘Capability’ Brown, c.1770-75, by Richard Cosway the estate by Viscount and Lady Irwin as early as 1758, but it was not until (17421821)/Private Collection/ Bridgeman Images. 1760 that a payment to him of £40 (around £67,000 in 2015) was made. Some initial planning may have been done then, as work was carried out in the plantations in 1760, possibly to set up a nursery. The design aimed to create the sort of serene landscape popularised by Claude Lorrain (1600–1682) and his patrons, whose paintings inspired the picturesque ideal and were admired by Brown. Charles Ingram, Viscount Irwin, had bought a painting by Claude in 1765 for £100 (over £171,000 in 2015).

  • Consultation on Proposals for Temple Newsam Estate December 2019 – March 2020
    Consultation on proposals for Temple Newsam Estate December 2019 – March 2020 About this consultation Temple Newsam is a large country estate in Leeds which is managed by Leeds City Council. It includes a range of visitor attractions including an historic house, a working farm and a huge park including playgrounds, woodlands, lakes, gardens and golf courses. It also has a popular café and gift shop. Leeds City Council is currently exploring ways to improve Temple Newsam so more people can experience and enjoy all it has to offer, and visitors will have more reasons to keep coming back. This consultation is part of that process. We would like to hear your views on proposals for the area of Temple Newsam that is currently managed as two golf courses, the area covers 104 hectares of the parkland. Temple Newsam Golf Temple Newsam has 2 golf courses (one 9-hole and one 18-hole). They are supported by a range of facilities including a shop and a car park. There is also a club house which is rented by Temple Newsam Golf Club Ltd. When income is set against costs, the net cost of Temple Newsam golf to the council was just over £220k in the 2018/19 period (which is representative of the costs for previous years). Financial year 2018-19 £'000 Total income (from tickets, retail, rents) 157.2 Expenditure (staff, utilities, horticultural machinery, re-saleable food, drink etc) -377.8 Estimated Overall Net Position 220.6 In the context of these costs, set against the relatively low usage of the courses, the council are proposing to find ways reduce costs to the council of providing golf (through remodelling, or closing, the courses) and get more people using this part of the estate for more popular, healthy, recreational activities.

    TRUST NEW ART PRESS INFORMATION Dorothy Una Ratcliffe Artist/Illustration Fellowship at Acorn Bank (Cumbria) Spring 2016 Continuing a tradition of artistic production at Acorn Bank Freya Pocklington’s artist residency will celebrate Beatrix Potter in 150th anniversary of her birth Courtesy the artist. Courtesy Dolce, Wears2014. Janice Pocklington, Freya Following a tradition of patronage of the arts started by writer and traveler Dorothy Una Ratcliffe, Acorn Bank continues a programme of activities with contemporary artists to continue Dorothy’s legacy, bringing her story to life. Now in its second year, the 2016 Dorothy Una Ratcliffe fellowship has been awarded to artist Freya Pocklington. The three month residency will start in late February and is part of a larger programme of activities across National Trust properties that celebrate the legacy of Beatrix Potter, marking the 150th anniversary of her birth in 1866. Freya Pocklington is a London based artist who grew up in the South Lakes. Often working on a large scale, her drawings combine layered ink and pastel to give them a distinctly painterly finish. Freya depicts largely female characters set against fantastical and domestic backdrops that examine our increasingly distant relationship to nature. Her subjects vary from live sitters to images found online and are accompanied by an array of animals including cats, hares, foxes and rams, loading the images with narrative. Freya re-contextualises her characters to unpick the societal role of pets and our urge to humanize animals. During the residency she will explore the notion of the physical archive in an increasingly digital world through a new series of drawings and audio recording.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT In this thesis I attempt to give a full account of Watson's life, since neither of his previous biographers have done so; Walter Swayze ends his examination thirty years before Watson's death and James Nelson deals mainly with his work. But I find his whole life significant, particularly in view of the new material I have discovered. Watson's teenage years in Liverpool, for instance, give an interesting picture of a group of provincial writers who later became famous. His previously unpublished letters to Professor Dowden, his next main influence, are full of useful information on the eighties, and the relative success of his early work reveals more about its prevalent attitudes, especially his political sonnets, which raise the question of nineteenth century political poetry in general.
