He was a proponent of natural selection, and a leading figure in the mid-twentieth century modern synthesis. He was secretary of the Zoological Society of Julian Huxley London (1935–1942), the first Director of UNESCO, a founding member of the World Wildlife Fund FRS and the first President of the British Humanist Association. Huxley was well known for his presentation of science in books and articles, and on radio and television. He directed an Oscar-winning wildlife film. He was awarded UNESCO's Kalinga Prize for the popularisation of science in 1953, the Darwin Medal of the Royal Society in 1956,[1] and the Darwin–Wallace Medal of the Linnaean Society in 1958. He was also knighted in that same year, 1958, a hundred years after Charles Darwin and Alfred Russel Wallace announced the theory of evolution by natural selection. In 1959 he received a Special Award of the Lasker Foundation in the category Planned Parenthood – World Population. Huxley was a prominent member of the British Eugenics Society and was its president from 1959 to 1962.

His grandfather was Thomas Henry Huxley, a friend and supporter of Charles Darwin and proponent of evolution, and his father was writer and editor Leonard Huxley. London Zoo UNESCO Huxley's mother was Julia Arnold (1862-1908), a graduate of Somerville College, Oxford, who had gained a First in English Literature there in 1882.[2] Julia and Leonard married in 1885 and they had Influences T. H. Huxley four children: Margaret (1899-1981), the novelist Aldous, Trevenen and Julian.[2] Influenced E. B. Ford · Gavin de Beer · Aldous Huxley Huxley was born on 22 June 1887, at the London house of his aunt. His mother died in 1908, when he was 21. In 1912, his father married Rosalind Bruce, who was the same age as Julian, and he later Military career [2] acquired step-brothers Andrew Huxley and David Huxley. Service/ British Army branch In 1911, Huxley became informally engaged to Kathleen Fordham, whom he had met some years earlier when she was a pupil at Prior's Field, the school his mother had run. During 1913 the Years of 1917–1919 relationship broke down[2] and Huxley had a nervous breakdown which a biographer described as service [3] caused by 'conflict between desire and guilt'. In the first months of 1914 Huxley had severe Rank Second Lieutenant depression and lived for some weeks at The Hermitage, a small private nursing home.[2] In August 1914 while Huxley was in Scotland, his brother Trevenen also had a nervous breakdown and stayed Unit Royal Army Service https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Huxley 2/23 3/4/2021 Julian Huxley - Wikipedia in the same nursing home. Trevenen was worried about how he had treated one of his women friends Corps [2] and committed suicide whilst there. Intelligence Corps In 1919 Huxley married Juliette Baillot (1896–1994) a French Swiss woman whom he had met while Battles/wars First World War she was employed as a governess at Garsington Manor, the country house of Lady Ottoline Morrell. Huxley was later unfaithful to Baillot and told her that he wanted an open marriage.[4] One of his affairs was with the poet May Sarton who in turn fell in love with Baillot and had a brief affair with her as well.[4] Huxley described himself in print as suffering from manic depression, and his wife's autobiography suggests that Julian Huxley suffered from a bipolar disorder.[1][5] He relied on his wife to provide moral and practical support throughout his life.[1] Julian and Juliette Huxley had two sons, Anthony Huxley (1920–1992) and Francis Huxley (1923–2016), who both became scientists. Early career Huxley grew up at the family home in Surrey, England, where he showed an early interest in nature, as he was given lessons by his grandfather, Thomas English Heritage blue Henry Huxley. When he heard his grandfather talking at dinner about the plaque at 16 Bracknell lack of parental care in fish, Julian piped up with "What about the Gardens, Hampstead, stickleback, Gran'pater?". His grandfather also took him to visit Joseph London, commemorating Dalton Hooker at Kew.[6] At the age of thirteen Huxley attended Eton Julian, his younger brother College as a King's Scholar, and continued to develop scientific interests; his Aldous, and father Leonard grandfather had influenced the school to build science laboratories much earlier. At Eton he developed an interest in ornithology, guided by science master W. D. "Piggy" Hill. "Piggy was a genius as a teacher ... I have always been grateful to him."[7] In 1905 Huxley won a scholarship in Zoology to Balliol College, Oxford and took up the place in 1906 after spending the summer in Germany. He developed a particular interest in embryology and protozoa and developed a friendship with the ornithologist William Warde Fowler.[8] In the autumn term of his final year, 1908, his mother died from cancer at the age of 46. In his final year he won the Newdigate Prize for T. H. Huxley with Julian in 1893 his poem "Holyrood". In 1909 he graduated with first class honours, and spent that July at the international gathering for the centenary of Darwin's birth, held at the University of Cambridge. Huxley was awarded a scholarship to spend a year at the Naples Marine Biological Station where he developed his interest in developmental biology by investigating sea squirts and sea urchins. In 1910 he was appointed as Demonstrator in the Department of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy at the University of Oxford, and started on the systematic observation of the courtship habits of water birds such as the common redshank (a wader) and grebes (which are divers). Bird watching in childhood had given Huxley his interest in ornithology, and he helped devise systems for the surveying and conservation of birds. His particular interest was bird behaviour, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Julian_Huxley 3/23 3/4/2021 Julian Huxley - Wikipedia especially the courtship of water birds. His 1914 paper on the great crested grebe, later published as a book, was a landmark in avian ethology; his invention of vivid labels for the rituals (such as 'penguin dance', 'plesiosaurus race' etc.) made the ideas memorable and interesting to the general reader.[9] In 1912 Huxley was asked by Edgar Odell Lovett to take set up the Department of Biology at the newly created Rice Institute (now Rice University) in Houston, Texas, which he accepted, planning to start the following year. Huxley made an exploratory trip to the United States in September 1912, visiting a number of leading universities as well as the Rice Institute. At T. H. Morgan's fly lab (Columbia University) he invited H. J. Muller to join him at Rice. Muller agreed to be his deputy, hurried to complete his PhD and moved to Houston for the beginning of the 1915–1916 academic year. At Rice, Muller taught biology and continued Drosophila lab work. Great crested grebes Before taking up the post of Assistant Professor at the Rice Institute, Huxley spent a year in Germany preparing for his demanding new job. Working in a laboratory just months before the outbreak of World War I, Huxley overheard fellow academics comment on a passing aircraft "it will not be long before those planes are flying over England". One pleasure of Huxley's life in Texas was the sight of his first hummingbird, though his visit to Edward Avery McIlhenny's estate on Avery Island in Louisiana was more significant. The McIlhennys and their Avery cousins owned the entire island, and the McIlhenny branch used it to produce their famous Tabasco sauce. Birds were one of McIlhenny's passions, however, and around 1895 he had set up a private sanctuary on the Island, called Bird City. There Huxley found egrets, herons and bitterns. These water birds, like the grebes, exhibit mutual courtship, with the pairs displaying to each other, and with the secondary sexual characteristics equally developed in both sexes.[10] In September 1916 Huxley returned to England from Texas to assist in the war effort. He was commissioned a temporary second lieutenant in the Royal Army Service Corps on 25 May 1917,[11] and was transferred to the General List, working in the British Army Intelligence Corps from 26 January 1918, [12] Julian Huxley first in Sussex, and then in northern Italy. He was advanced in grade within the Intelligence Corps on [13] British Army Intelligence Corps 3 May 1918, relinquished his intelligence appointment on 10 January 1919 and was demobilised five [14][15] 1918 days later, retaining his rank.

Lázló Moholy-Nagy at the London Zoo: Animal Enclosures and the Unleashed Camera In February 1937, an exhibition called Modern Architecture in England opened at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, proclaiming what it saw as an exciting new wave of modernist building in England. The show consisted of enlarged black-and-white exterior photographs and accompanying floor-plans of recent housing blocks, department stores and private homes. It also included a maquette of the nursery school at London’s new Kensal House flats, plus a set of panels demanding the replacement of more of the city’s slums with modern hygienic housing. Upstairs and in contrast to what its curator Ernestine Fantl would later describe as an “endless sea of white stucco” (Carter, 1974: 51), visitors could watch a silent film about the seven modernist structures recently erected by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL) at its two sites at Regent’s Park in central London and at Whipsnade in rural Bedfordshire.1 1 The seven buildings built by Tecton for the ZSL were: a Gorilla House (1933), a Penguin Pond (1934), and a Refreshment Bar and Kiosk (1937) at Regent’s Park; and a Kiosk, a Giraffe House (both 1934), an Elephant House, and a Restaurant (both 1935) at Whipsnade.

  • Margaret Storm Jameson and the Spanish Civil War: the Fight for Human Values
    JOURNAL OF ENGLISH STUDIES - VOLUME 5-6 (2005-2008), 13-29 MARGARET STORM JAMESON AND THE SPANISH CIVIL WAR: THE FIGHT FOR HUMAN VALUES JENNIFER BIRKETT University of Birmingham ABSTRACT. Spain is not generally thought of as a significant theme in Jameson’s writing, or her political formation. But careful study of her life and writing discloses numerous connections to the country from the early 1930s onwards, and No Victory for the Soldier (1938), the novel she published under the pseudonym of James Hill, in the 1930s, closes with a lengthy section on the Spanish Civil War. The tragic heroism of the Republic at war provides the ideal context for Jameson’s exploration of the capacity of modernist art, or rather, modernist artists (the Auden generation) to speak in the name of the future of the common man. Spain, and especially the Basque country, fighting the fascist war machine, is one of the last repositories of humane living and European values: reason, justice, humanity and decency. “Does this mean anything to you?” (Hill 1939: 341) Through the mouth of Sergeant Derio, the Basque professor of philosophy waiting for the German and Italian bombs to fall on Bilbao, Storm Jameson expressed the hopes pinned on Spain and its revolution. Here was the last opportunity of seeing the values she nostalgically assigned to pre-industrial England enshrined in the making of modern, metropolitan Europe. As Derio tells John Knox, the musician helping to man the Republican field hospitals: “Here we still cared more for human beings than for anything they can make or possess.

Located in Regent s Park, it was the express purpose of the Gardens (f. 1828) to function as a testing-ground for acclimatisation and to demonstrate the scientific impor­ tance of various animal species. The aim is t o analyse what the Gardens signified as a recreational, educational and scientific institution in nineteenth-century London by considering them from four different perspectives: as a pan of a newly-founded society, as a part of the leisure culture of mid-Victorian London, as a medi­ ator of popular zoology and as a constituent of the Zoological Society's scientific ambitions. After an introduction which describes the devlopment of European zoos, Chapter two recapitu­ lates the early years of the Society and the Gardens.

    1 “Once through the gate, face right. The Deer House, The Camel House, The Giraffe House, The Cattle and Zebra House and The Antelope House will all be found on your left across a canal and a wild ravine. Water Bus rides on the artificial river start at ten. As you face your right you see a path before you. Take it. You pass, on your right, The Owls Aviary and The Pheasantry. All of the pheasants have gone away and you can count up fourteen empty cages, waiting. You can listen to the wind across The Reptile House, The Reptiliary, The Gentlemen’s Toilets, The Charles Clore Pavilion for Mammals and Moonlight World. Ahead of you a great fence of wide-mesh wire catches the wind; it is a huge crazy sail that is warped to the ground like a tent and has a door of brushed aluminum. It peaks in twenty places, it bulges at its sides; thick steel pipes at strange angles just like spars and when you walk inside, saying, “You go first. You come first, you always came first for me. You know that,” the noise that she makes for you by listening in silence, saying nothing, even when you try to smirk your sudden words away, is lost. For you are in The Snowdon Aviary, opened in 1965, the first out-of-doors walk- through aviary in The London Zoo, which houses many birds from a variety of natural habitats. The Aviary was designed by Lord Snowdon in association with Mr. Cedric Price and Mr.
