It may take different forms, but it holds at bottom to the same inner thought and purpose. This book really changed how I read, listen, and see what surrounds me. The artist uses his strength to flatter his lower needs; in an ostensibly artistic form he presents what is impure, draws the weaker elements to him, mixes them with evil, betrays men and helps them to betray themselves, while they convince themselves and others that they are spiritually thirsty, and that from this pure spring they may quench their thirst. Throughout, he calls for painting to achieve the non-naturalistic liberation of music. Paperback or Softback. And the bottom line? His way of explaining, though quite poetic and grandoise at times, is very clear to read and understand.

When there is a similarity of inner tendency in the whole moral and spiritual atmosphere, a similarity of ideals, at first closely pursued but later lost to sight, a similarity in the inner feeling of any one period to that of another, the logical result will be a revival of the external forms which served to express those inner feelings in an earlier age. The other art, that which is capable of educating further, springs equally from contemporary feeling, but is at the same time not only echo and mirror of it, but also has a Concerning the Spiritual in Art 1st edition and powerful prophetic strength. These two possible resemblances between the art forms of today and those of the past will be at once recognized as diametrically opposed to one another.

They are a bitch because they are more often than not worded as a request for a statement of artistic intent.

Concerning the Spiritual in Art 1st edition especially like this insight from the reviewer: "His spirituality is not an incarnational one, where the Spirit interpenetrates and quickens matter, but a dualistic one, where they can be separated or "abstracted".

Unauthorised Reproduction Prohibited. 1. The Sadleir-Black Collection It was not long before the lust for Gothic Romance took complete possession of me. Some instinct – for which I can only be thankful – told me not to stray into 'Sensibility', 'Pastoral', or 'Epistolary' novels of the period 1770-1820, but to stick to Gothic Novels and Tales of Terror. Michael Sadleir, XIX Century Fiction It seems appropriate that the Sadleir-Black collection of Gothic fictions, a genre peppered with illicit passions, should be described by its progenitor as the fruit of lust. Michael Sadleir (1888-1957), the person who cultivated this passion, was a noted bibliographer, book collector, publisher and creative writer. Educated at Rugby and Balliol College, Oxford, Sadleir joined the office of the publishers Constable and Company in 1912, becoming Director in 1920. He published seven reasonably successful novels; important biographical studies of Trollope, Edward and Rosina Bulwer, and Lady Blessington; and a number of ground-breaking bibliographical works, most significantly Excursions in Victorian Bibliography (1922) and XIX Century Fiction (1951).

  • Sir Michael Sadler, Eva Gilpin, and Artwork at the Hall School Weybridge
    Education as Exploration: Sir Michael Sadler, Eva Gilpin, and Artwork at the Hall School Weybridge Oliver Pickering An illustrated talk given in the Stanley & Audrey Burton Gallery, University of Leeds, on Saturday 18 February 2012 Sir Michael Sadler, who was born in 1861 and died in 1943, had two Quaker wives, and it’s Eva Gilpin, the second of them, who is the main focus of the talk today. Before he became Vice-Chancellor of the University of Leeds in 1911, Sadler had spent the years 1885-95 in Oxford as organiser of extension teaching for Oxford University (summer schools and adult education classes) while at the same time, through political contacts within the Liberal Party, becoming increasingly involved in the campaign for the reform of secondary education in England. He became recognised as one of the leading educationists of his day, which took him to London in 1895. But Sadler was born in Barnsley, which was also the home of his first wife, Mary Anne Harvey, whom he married in 1885, and the Yorkshire connection was a strong one. The Harveys were a prominent and extensive Quaker textile manufacturing family, middle class, hardworking, and very comfortably off. This family tree (below) shows that Charles Harvey, Mary Anne’s father, had a brother Thomas, who was one of the leading Leeds Quakers of the second half of the nineteenth century. He had a son William, who was therefore a first cousin of Mary Anne Harvey. William and his wife Anna Maria Whiting had seven children, who were consequently second cousins to Michael, the only child of Michael Sadler and Mary Anne Harvey, and who in later life, when making a reputation as a bibliographer and novelist, spelt his name Sadleir in order to distinguish himself from his father.

  • In Dialogue with English Modernism: Storm Jameson's Early
    IN DIALOGUE WITH ENGLISH MODERNISM: STORM JAMESON’S EARLY FORMATION AS A WRITER, 1919-1931 Deborah Frances Gerrard De Montfort University January 2010 Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy For Prue and Julia Abstract After a period during which Storm Jameson’s restricted literary identity has been that of the politically engaged woman writer, critical interest in the intellectual and stylistic complexities of her work is now reviving. Yet Jameson’s background in early English modernism and the manner in which it enriches her writing continues to pass unnoticed. This thesis uncovers new evidence of Jameson’s immersion in the early English modernisms of Alfred Orage’s Leeds Arts Club and New Age journal and of Dora Marsden’s journals, the New Freewoman and the Egoist, as an avant-garde student before the Great War. Drawing analogies with the post-colonial notions of ‘Manichean delirium’ and of ‘writing back to the centre’, this thesis argues that, subsequently – as a provincial socialist woman writer struggling to make her way at the predominantly male and elitist cultural centre – Jameson developed a vexed outsider-insider relation to English modernism which she expressed during the 1920s in a series of intertextual novels critiquing the contemporary cultural scene. It examines each of these novels chronologically, beginning with Jameson’s critique of the early modernisms of Orage, Marsden and associated writers in her first two novels, before moving on to her engagement, in turn, with the work of D. H. Lawrence, Virginia Woolf and Wyndham Lewis. Employing a socially oriented model of intertextuality, this thesis reads each novel synchronically as a sceptical and often witty probing of some of the polarised, and frequently contradictory, positions taken within the modernist debate.

Three men introduced me to bibliography and stirred my imagination for what many find a dry field. Two of the three were nearing the end of their long careers and the third, just retiring at the age of sixty-one, also seemed old viewed by the young and easily awed. By a coincidence two of them were running, or had run, the Clarendon Press in Oxford; all three were "Press authors." Kenneth Sisam, in his last months as secretary (so called) to the Delegates of the Press, had employed me to do a vacation job on the addenda to the Little Oxford Dictionary; I had to explain that MCC stood for Marylebone Cricket Club and the like.

    MODERNISM, CULTURAL EXCHANGE AND TRANSNATIONALITY: THE SECOND CONFERENCE OF THE AHRC MODERNIST MAGAZINES PROJECT CONTENTS: Information about the Conference p.2 Information about the Modernist Magazines Project p.3 Information about the Oxford University Press series p.4 Keynote speakers p.6 Conference structure at a glance p.7 Streams and panels pp.8-13 Abstracts pp.14-57 1 MODERNISM, CULTURAL EXCHANGE AND TRANSNATIONALITY: We would like to welcome you to the Second Conference of the AHRC Modernist Magazines Project. The interest in much current critical debate in questions of national and transnational identities has helped restore and enliven the conception of modernism and the avant-garde as twin international formations across the arts. Magazines were instrumental in publicizing the new movements and frequently did so, singly or in the company of others, with an ambition to intervene in the public or international sphere. This international conference has five streams (Avant-Garde Variations; Editors and Authors; Networks; War and Politics; National Identities) consisting of many panels that will explore the role magazines have played in the broad networks of modernist art, ideas and politics in shaping and re-articulating regional, national, and cross-national identities. We are also extremely fortunate to have two world-renowned experts in this field as our keynote speakers. They are Mark S. Morrisson (Penn State University) and Timothy O. Benson (Robert Gore Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art). In addition to the conference sessions and keynote lectures, we will have a display of modernist magazines and a presentation about our website.
