  • Education, Instruction and Apprenticeship at the London Foundling Hospital C.1741 - 1800
    Fashioning the Foundlings – Education, Instruction and Apprenticeship at the London Foundling Hospital c.1741 - 1800 Janette Bright MRes in Historical Research University of London September 2017 Institute of Historical Research School of Advanced Study Index Chapter One – Introduction Pages 2 - 14 Chapter Two – Aims and objectives Pages 14 - 23 Chapter Three - Educating the Foundlings: Pages 24 - 55 schooling and vocational instruction Chapter Four – Apprenticeship Pages 56 - 78 Chapter Five – Effectiveness and experience: Pages 79 - 97 assessing the outcomes of education and apprenticeship Chapter Six – Final conclusions Pages 98 - 103 Appendix – Prayers for the use of the foundlings Pages 104 - 105 Bibliography Pages 106 - 112 3 Chapter one: introduction Chapter One: Introduction Despite the prominence of the word 'education' in the official title of the London Foundling Hospital, that is 'The Hospital for the Maintenance and Education of Exposed and Deserted Young Children', it is surprising to discover this is an under researched aspect of its history. Whilst researchers have written about this topic in a general sense, gaps and deficiencies in the literature still exist. By focusing on this single component of the Hospital’s objectives, and combining primary sources in new ways, this study aims to address these shortcomings. In doing so, the thesis provides a detailed assessment of, first, the purpose and form of educational practice at the Hospital and, second, the outcomes of education as witnessed in the apprenticeship programme in which older foundlings participated. In both cases, consideration is given to key shifts in education and apprenticeship practices, and to the institutional and contextual forces that prompted these developments over the course of the eighteenth century.

  • Emma and “The Children in Brunswick Square” : U
    y y Emma and “the children in Brunswick Square” : u : LAURIE KAPLAN Laurie Kaplan, Professor of English and Academic Director of George Washington University’s England Center, has published essays on Jane Austen, Tom Stoppard, Paul Scott, and women writers of the First World War. She is a former editor of Persuasions . “‘To give up one’s child! ’” I C O J A ’ Emma , on the evening of Miss Taylor’s marriage to Mr. Weston, when Emma and her father are feeling abandoned and bereft, Mr. Knightley arrives at Hartfield “directly from their mutual con - nections in London . to say that all were well in Brunswick-square” (9). 1 A contemporary reviewer of Emma “commended” Austen in The Champion for her choice of John and Isabella Knightleys’ neighborhood : “ when we are occa - sionally transported to London, our authoress has the originality to waive Grosvenor or Berkeley-squares, and set us down in humble Brunswick- square ” ( qtd. in Cronin and McMillan 534). While Austen’s syntax empha - sizes “Brunswick-square,” critics have commented upon the airy neighb orhood where Mr. Knightley’s brother and Emma’s sister live only in the broader con - text of London. Yet, Austen repeats Brunswick Square so many times (eleven, in fact) that the square functions as an iconic (perhaps ironic) motif . But how does this notch in a corner of Bloomsbury resonate in the context of a novel that seems to focus more specifically on Hartfield and Highbury? What is Brunswick Square to Emma , and what is Emma to Brunswick Square? The recurring reference to Brunswick Square may be one of the reasons Jane Austen was reluctant to dedicate her novel to the Prince Regent.

  • Syllabus Are Provisional As the Program Will Take Advantage of Students’ Interests and Oppor- Tunities to Engage with Course Themes As They Appear
    LNDN HSCI/HIST 3121 Global Perspectives on Nursing and Midwifery History CAPA London Summer Seminar 2018 Course Description This course is an exciting opportunity to experience nursing and midwifery history in the UK and further afield. The course will focus on major influences in the development of nursing and midwifery practice from the perspectives of medical, nursing and midwifery history. Case studies will be drawn from London, the UK and continental Europe, with comparative perspectives from the rest of the world where appropriate. Topics will include the impacts of social change, evolving attitudes to social care, and the role of the Enlightenment, French revolution and American Independence, as well as the transition from Agrarian to Industrial Society in shaping cultures and practices of nursing care. The course will also consider the contributions made by Florence Nightingale, Mary Seacole and Mrs. Bedford-Fenwick to nursing practice. It will also look at pioneers like Sir Frederick Truby King who set up the Plunket Society in New Zealand in 1907, from which sprung Plunket nurses, maternity and childcare still in practice today. The course will examine the ways in which medical breakthroughs, public health, epidemiology (social determinants of health), religion, philosophy, ethics, law, sociology and economics have played a part and influenced and affected clinical practice and in turn the influences on the professional role and practice of nurses and midwives. Students will be encouraged to reflect on the historical changes that have had a particular impact on patients, their families and the wider public. This will enable students to gain a deeper understanding of historical reasoning and insight into a variety of forms of historical evidence.

  • Press Release by George.Indd
    By George! Handel’s Music for Royal Occasions 7 February - 18 May 2014 No composer has been more closely associated with the British monarchy than German-born George Frideric Handel (1685-1759). His anthem Zadok the Priest has been performed at every coronation since that of King George II on 11 October 1727, while his Water Music was performed in 2012 on the River Thames for the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II. In the 300th anniversary year of the coronation of George I, the first Hanoverian king, this fascinating new exhibition explores Handel and his music for royal occasions, drawing on the Gerald Coke Handel Collection at the Foundling Museum, and significant loans from major institutions including the British Library, Lambeth Palace and the National Portrait Gallery. Handel enjoyed the patronage of three British monarchs during his lifetime: Queen Anne, George I, and George II. Employed by George I in Hanover, Handel had the advantage of knowing the new king before he ascended the British throne in 1714. Although he was not appointed Master of the King’s Musick, Handel was favoured by George I and his family, while the appointed Master was left to compose music for smaller, less significant occasions. Handel tutored the royal princesses and composed music for almost all important royal events. He went on to compose the coronation anthems for George II, as well as the Music for the Royal Fireworks and the famous Water Music. For further information please contact: Rosanna Wollenberg and David Lasserson Brunswick Arts T: 0207 936 1290 E: [email protected] Exhibits include paintings of the Royal Family and the 1727 Order of Service for the Coronation of George II, annotated by the Archbishop of Canterbury.
