Classical Nakedness in British Sculpture and Historical Painting 1798-1840 Cora Hatshepsut Gilroy-Ware Ph.D Univ
MARMOREALITIES: CLASSICAL NAKEDNESS IN BRITISH SCULPTURE AND HISTORICAL PAINTING 1798-1840 CORA HATSHEPSUT GILROY-WARE PH.D UNIVERSITY OF YORK HISTORY OF ART SEPTEMBER 2013 ABSTRACT Exploring the fortunes of naked Graeco-Roman corporealities in British art achieved between 1798 and 1840, this study looks at the ideal body’s evolution from a site of ideological significance to a form designed consciously to evade political meaning. While the ways in which the incorporation of antiquity into the French Revolutionary project forged a new kind of investment in the classical world have been well-documented, the drastic effects of the Revolution in terms of this particular cultural formation have remained largely unexamined in the context of British sculpture and historical painting. By 1820, a reaction against ideal forms and their ubiquitous presence during the Revolutionary and Napoleonic wartime becomes commonplace in British cultural criticism. Taking shape in a series of chronological case-studies each centring on some of the nation’s most conspicuous artists during the period, this thesis navigates the causes and effects of this backlash, beginning with a state-funded marble monument to a fallen naval captain produced in 1798-1803 by the actively radical sculptor Thomas Banks. The next four chapters focus on distinct manifestations of classical nakedness by Benjamin West, Benjamin Robert Haydon, Thomas Stothard together with Richard Westall, and Henry Howard together with John Gibson and Richard James Wyatt, mapping what I identify as -

Milton Keynes Council established in its Core Strategy a target of delivering 28,000 homes in the period from 2010 to 2026; an average of 1,750 homes per year. This target is split 26,240 in the urban area and 1,760 across the rural rest of the Borough. 1.2 There is a need to ensure that there is choice and flexibility in land supply across the Borough. This will help maintain completion rates and enable the Council to demonstrate it has a five year supply of land, which is a strict government requirement. Problems with this can arise because, despite there being enough land available, it is not being built out quickly enough to meet the Core Strategy’s annual housing targets. -
Newsletter No. 74 Autumn 2008 Editorial
NEWSLETTER NO. 74 AUTUMN 2008 EDITORIAL Welcome to the latest Newsletter; I hope you have had an enjoyable summer in spite of the dreadful weather, Due to a clash of dates I was unable to attend this year’s AIA Conference which was held in Wiltshire and I look forward to reading the report which will appear in Industrial Archaeology News. I am also looking forward to the forthcoming 2008-2009 Lecture Programme; full details are given on the separate sheet, meeting as usual on Saturday mornings at Claremont. In the past the Section has considered whether midweek evening meetings or Saturday afternoons would attract more members to join and attend but the general view from those who have expressed it, is that Saturday mornings are preferred. However please note that the 2009 AGM will be starting earlier at 10.30am. This is because we will have another local walk in the afternoon starting at 2pm and starting the AGM half an hour earlier gives a little more time for members’ contributions and lunch. I am sure that you will agree with me that our Lecture Secretary, Jane Ellis, has yet again organised an interesting and varied programme and I hope many of you will be able to attend at least a few lectures during the season. Robert Vickers will also lead a walk around Huddersfield on Sunday 10 May 2009, meeting at the Railway Station at 11am with a pub lunch. Let’s hope there is better weather for this than his walk around Bradford, which is reported on later in the Newsletter. -

Press Release EMBARGO: NOT FOR PUBLICATION BEFORE 8.30 PM – 22 SEPTEMBER 2020 Winners announced for the 18th annual Museums + Heritage Awards From English Heritage’s Tintagel Castle Bridge & Landscape Project winning Permanent Exhibition of the Year to York Art Gallery and the Kaiser Chiefs winning Partnership of the Year, the 15 winners of the 18th Museums + Heritage Awards were announced this evening (Tuesday 22 September 2020) at a special online ceremony. The awards celebrated the most innovative and ground-breaking initiatives of last year from museums, galleries and heritage visitor attractions across the UK and overseas. Talking about English Heritage’s Tintagel Castle Bridge, recipient of the award for Permanent Exhibitioin of the Year, chair of the awards judging panel Dr Matthew Tanner MBE, chief executive of SS Great Britain, noted: “it is not only brave, it is extraordinary, bewitching and beautiful and has enabled the genuine story of place to be told in an astonishingly original way.” The event’s online format is not the only first for 2020, with this year’s categories having been bolstered by the addition of the new Sustainable Project of the Year award, which was sponsored by National Lottery Heritage Fund. The Museum of Oxford scooped this inaugural prize, for its temporary exhibition Queering Spires: a history of LGBTIQA+ spaces in Oxford. The temporary exhibition opened in September 2019 and was created with an ‘environmentally and socially responsible ethos’. One of its main aims was to reduce the amount of waste a temporary exhibition often creates and the judges were impressed by the Museum of Oxford’s commitment and authenticity in putting sustainability at the very heart of the project, recommending it as a model that could be replicated across the sector. -

Detailed Assessment of NO2 at South Killingholme
Local Authority Dr Matthew Barnes Officer Department Environmental Health (Commercial) Church Square House Scunthorpe Address North Lincolnshire DN15 6XQ Telephone 01724 297336 e-mail [email protected] Date January 2016 Report Status Final Report 1 Executive summary North Lincolnshire Council’s Air Quality Progress Report 2011 identified a possible exceedance of nitrogen dioxide alongside the A160 in South Killingholme. For this reason, in October 2013 North Lincolnshire Council installed an air quality monitoring site to more accurately measure nitrogen dioxide, nitric oxide and nitrogen oxides at this location. Nitric oxide (NO) is mainly derived from road transport emissions and other combustion processes. Nitric oxide is not considered to be harmful to health, however, once emitted to the atmosphere it is rapidly oxidised to nitrogen dioxide (NO2) which can be harmful to health. NO2 can irritate the lungs and lower resistance to respiratory infections. Continued exposure to concentrations above the recommended air quality objectives may cause increased incidence of acute respiratory illness in children. The main source of NO2 is from road traffic emissions. At South Killinghome the principle source is from vehicles using the A160 dual-carriage way, which provides access to the Port of Immingham, local refineries and power stations. It is also the main route to the proposed Able Marine Energy Park, a deep water quay and manufacturing facility for the offshore wind energy industry. To provide better access to the Port of Immingham and surrounding area, the Highways Agency are upgrading both the A160 and A180. It is anticipated that 1 construction will take approximately 16 months and should be completed by Autumn 2016. -

This is to comply with the requirement in the To assess the sensitivity of the 30 landscape areas around National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF) (Paragraph 14) that Milton Keynes, Newport Pagnell, Woburn Sands and Olney to residential development Local Plans should met objectively-assessed needs unless any adverse impacts of doing so would significantly and demonstrably To identify where particular land areas may have greater or outweigh the benefits, or that specific policies in the NPPF indicate less capacity for residential development that development should be restricted. In assessing potential site options, the NPPF states that ‘allocations of land for development should prefer land of less environmental value’ (Paragraph 17). The Local Plan should bring forward allocations which are consistent with these various requirements. -

Haversham-cum-Little Linford Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group The Neighbourhood Plan Steering Group and Haversham-cum-Little-Linford Parish Council have been working for a considerable time to prepare a Neighbourhood Plan for the Parish. We have been assisted in this by Oneill Homer, a leading consultancy who have assisted Parish and Town Councils around the country to produce well over 100 Neighbourhood Plans, including several in Milton Keynes. The cost of this consultancy work has been paid for by a government grant. What is a Neighbourhood Plan? A document that sets out planning policies for the neighbourhood area – planning policies are used to decide whether to approve planning applications. Written by the local community, the people who know and love the area, rather than the Local Planning Authority. A powerful tool to ensure the community gets the right types of development, in the right place. What is this document for? We had hoped to hold a public meeting / exhibition to discuss the significant work undertaken so far and find out YOUR views of our policy intents and the potential development sites offered by landowners. -
