    THE WRITINGS of BRITISH CONSCRIPT SOLDIERS, 1916-1918 Ilana Ruth Bet-El Submitted for the Degree of Ph

    EXPERIENCE INTO IDENTITY: THE WRITINGS OF BRITISH CONSCRIPT SOLDIERS, 1916-1918 Ilana Ruth Bet-El Submitted for the degree of PhD University College London AB STRACT Between January 1916 and March 1919 2,504,183 men were conscripted into the British army -- representing as such over half the wartime enlistments. Yet to date, the conscripts and their contribution to the Great War have not been acknowledged or studied. This is mainly due to the image of the war in England, which is focused upon the heroic plight of the volunteer soldiers on the Western Front. Historiography, literary studies and popular culture all evoke this image, which is based largely upon the volumes of poems and memoirs written by young volunteer officers, of middle and upper class background, such as Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon. But the British wartime army was not a society of poets and authors who knew how to distil experience into words; nor, as mentioned, were all the soldiers volunteers. This dissertation therefore attempts to explore the cultural identity of this unknown population through a collection of diaries, letters and unpublished accounts of some conscripts; and to do so with the aid of a novel methodological approach. In Part I the concept of this research is explained, as a qualitative examination of all the chosen writings, with emphasis upon eliciting the attitudes of the writers to the factual events they recount. Each text -- e.g. letter or diary -- was read literally, and also in light of the entire collection, thus allowing for the emergence of personal and collective narratives concurrently.

    Book Proposal 3

    Rock and Roll has Tender Moments too... ! Photographs by Chalkie Davies 1973-1988 ! For as long as I can remember people have suggested that I write a book, citing both my exploits in Rock and Roll from 1973-1988 and my story telling abilities. After all, with my position as staff photographer on the NME and later The Face and Arena, I collected pop stars like others collected stamps, I was not happy until I had photographed everyone who interested me. However, given that the access I had to my friends and clients was often unlimited and 24/7 I did not feel it was fair to them that I should write it all down. I refused all offers. Then in 2010 I was approached by the National Museum of Wales, they wanted to put on a retrospective of my work, this gave me a special opportunity. In 1988 I gave up Rock and Roll, I no longer enjoyed the music and, quite simply, too many of my friends had died, I feared I might be next. So I put all of my negatives into storage at a friends Studio and decided that maybe 25 years later the images you see here might be of some cultural significance, that they might be seen as more than just pictures of Rock Stars, Pop Bands and Punks. That they even might be worthy of a Museum. So when the Museum approached me three years ago with the idea of a large six month Retrospective in 2015 I agreed, and thought of doing the usual thing and making a Catalogue.

Master of Music, August 2003, 46 pp., 32 illustrations, reference, 24 titles. Examines the use of vernacular, country guitar styles in an electro-acoustic environment. Special attention is given to performance practices and explanation of techniques. Electro-acoustic techniques—including sound design and spatialization—are given with sonogram analyses and excerpts from the score. Compositional considerations are contrasted with those of Mario Davidovsky and Jean-Claude Risset with special emphasis on electro-acoustic approaches. Contextualization of the piece in reference to other contemporary, electric guitar music is shown with reference to George Crumb and Chiel Meijering.

    Mires of the Somme: the Actions of the I ANZAC Corps at Flers–Guedecourt November 1916 by Nicholas Jensen

    AWM SVSS paper, 2014 Mires of the Somme, Nicholas Jensen Mires of the Somme: The actions of the I ANZAC Corps at Flers–Guedecourt November 1916 by Nicholas Jensen Abstract Considering the vast scope and breadth of the Somme’s historiography, it is surprising that the Ist ANZAC Corps’ role at Flers–Guedecourt has attracted only marginal mention in the Somme’s expanding literature. Aside from C.E.W. Bean’s account in the Official History, in which he vividly describes the Flers–Guedecourt attacks as “undoubtedly the most difficult in which the AIF were ever engaged”, there is no monographic study which examines the role of I ANZAC Corps at Flers–Guedecourt in its final month of combat in the Somme campaign. Historians such as Bill Gammage and Joan Beaumont have suggested that the Flers-Guedecourt attacks should be recognised as a more significant moment in the broader history the AIF in the Somme Campaign. Introduction By the time the I ANZAC Corps reached the Flers-Guedecourt sector in late October 1916, the Somme campaign seemed to be progressing slowly into its final month of combat. The promising successes gained in autumn at Pozières and Mouquet Farm seemed to fade, as the Somme’s milder spring was gradually overtaken by the harsher winter conditions. Nevertheless, for the Somme’s Commander-in-Chief, Field Marshal Sir Douglas Haig and his adjuncts at GHQ, September was seen as the Somme’s long-awaited watershed and, in the mind of its commanders, it was surely a sign of promising things to come.
