  • Yasha Gall, Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975
    Julian Sorell Huxley, 1887-1975 Yasha Gall Published by Nauka, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2004 Reproduced as an e-book with kind permission of Nauka Science editor: Academician AL Takhtajan Preface by the Science Editor The 20th century was the epoch of discovery in evolutionary biology, marked by many fundamental investigations. Of special significance were the works of AN Severtsov, SS Chetverikov, S Wright, JBS Haldane, G De Beer JS Huxley and R Goldschmidt. Among the general works on evolutionary theory, the one of greatest breadth was Julian Huxley’s book Evolution: The Modern Synthesis (1942). Huxley was one of the first to analyze the mechanisms of macro-evolutionary processes and discuss the evolutionary role of neoteny in terms of developmental genetics (the speed of gene action). Neoteny—the most important mechanism of heritable variation of ontogenesis—has great macro-evolutionary consequences. A Russian translation of Huxley’s book on evolution was prepared for publication by Professor VV Alpatov. The manuscript of the translation had already been sent to production when the August session of the VASKNIL in 1948 burst forth—a destructive moment in the history of biology in our country. The publication was halted, and the manuscript disappeared. I remember well a meeting with Huxley in 1945 in Moscow and Leningrad during the celebratory jubilee at the Academy of Sciences. He was deeply disturbed by the “blossoming” of Lysenkoist obscurantism in biology. It is also important to note that in the 1950s Huxley developed original concepts for controlling the birth rate of the Earth’s population. He openly declared the necessity of forming an international institute at the United Nations, since the global ecosystem already could not sustain the pressure of human “activity” and, together with humanity, might itself die.

    TOM BROWN’S SCHOOLDAYS: DISCOVERING A VICTORIAN HEADMASTER IN RUGBY PUBLIC SCHOOL * CORTÉS GRANELL , Ana María Universitat de València Departament de Filologia Anglesa i Alemanya [email protected] Fecha de recepción: 11 de julio de 2013 Fecha de aceptación: 27 de julio de 2013 Título: Los días de escuela de Tom Brown: Descubriendo a un director victoriano en la Escuela Pública Rugby Resumen: Este artículo presenta la hipótesis que Thomas Arnold (1795-1842) mejoró y modeló al niño inglés medio para el Imperio Británico mientras que desempeñaba la función de director en la escuela pública Rugby (1828-1842). El estudio comienza por la introducción de la escuela pública en cuanto a su evolución y causas, además del nacimiento del mito de Arnold. La novela Tom Brown’s Schooldays de Thomas Hughes sirve para desarrollar nuestro entendimiento de lo genuino inglés a través del examen de una escuela pública modelo y sus constituyentes. Hemos realizado un análisis del personaje de Thomas Arnold mediante la comparación de un estudio de caso a partir de la novela de Hughes y dos películas adaptadas por Robert Stevenson (1940) y David Moore (2005). En las conclusiones ofrecemos la tesis que Thomas Arnold sólo pudo inculcar sus ideas por medio del antiguo sistema de los prefectos. Palabras clave: escuela pública, Rugby, Thomas Arnold, Thomas Hughes, inglés, prefecto. * This article was submitted for the subject Bachelor’s Degree Final Dissertation, and was supervised by Dr Laura Monrós Gaspar, lecturer in English Literature at the English and German Studies Department at the Universitat de València.

  • “That Unhappy War of Yours”: Eight Letters from Samuel Laurence to Old Friends in New York City, 1861–1875
    “That unhappy War of yours”: Eight Letters from Samuel Laurence to Old Friends in New York City, 1861–1875 DAVID SOUTHERN Samuel Laurence (circa 1850) Photograph by Anthony Coningham Sterling Copyright © National Portrait Gallery, London AMUEL LAURENCE (1812–84), A PORTRAIT ARTIST WHO SPECIALIZED in literary figures both British and American, was possibly Sborn in Guildford, Surrey, beyond which, at least until recently, nothing was known of his parentage, his education, or any signal events from his formative years, except that at some point he changed the spelling of his last name from Lawrence. CSA 24 2008 6 CARLYLE STUDIES ANNUAL He first exhibited his work in London in 1834 and moved easily in circles of London literati. On 10 August 1836, at All Soul’s Church, Marylebone, he married Anastasia Gliddon, cousin and adopted sister of Katherine Gliddon and sister-in-law of Thornton Leigh Hunt. Perhaps as early as 1840 and certainly by 1844, the Laurences were participants in a “Bohemian Phalanstery” modeled upon the utopian philosophy of Charles Fourier (1772–1837), and it included Thornton and Katherine Hunt, George Henry Lewes, and Mary Ann Evans.1 James Spedding likely introduced Laurence to the Carlyles (see CL 29: 355), and at least ten letters to him from Thomas Carlyle (TC) and one from Jane Welsh Carlyle (JWC) can be found in the New York Public Library (Ray collection), the National Library of Scotland (NLS), the University of California Library, Santa Cruz (Strouse collection), and the Rare Book, Manuscript, and Special Collections at Duke University’s Perkins Library. To a letter from TC to his sister Jean Aitken, 6 July 1838, JWC added this piquant postscript: “—only think Carlyle is to have his picture taken again this time by an artist of genius—if it succeeds I mean to buy it of the man[.] It was I formerly that used to be asked to sit for pictures but every dog has its day” (CLO).

ARNOLD-BROWN FAMILY Adam Arnold-Brown started as a student at Gordonstoun in September 1934 (A. Arnold-Brown, 1962). During the Second World War he was stationed for a time at the Highland Field Training Centre at Glenfeshie in the Cairngorms (Arnold- Brown, 1962). In 1950, he became the first Warden of Outward Bound Eskdale in the Lake District (Arnold-Brown, 1962). Prior to joining Gordonstoun A. Arnold-Brown had been a student at Abbotsholme (Arnold-Brown, 1962). He probably went there because his father, Robert Arnold- Forster, was an ex-student of the school and was on Abbotsholme’s executive comm- ittee (Arnold-Brown, 1962). Unusually R. Arnold-Brown was sent to Abbotsholme at the insistence of his sister Lillian, rather than his parents (Arnold-Brown, 1962). His sister later married Sir Patrick Geddes (Arnold-Brown, 1962), educational inno- vator, supporter of Abbotsholme and friend of Abbotsholme’s founder Cecil Reddie (see chapter 4). R. Arnold-Brown was also one of the Abbotsholme students who met Hahn in the Alps in 1902 and gave him the book Emlohstobba which Lietz had written about Abbotsholme and which influenced Hahn’s life (Arnold-Brown, 1962) – see Chapter 1.

  • Westminster Abbey
    Westminster Abbey A National Scout and Guide Service of Celebration and Thanksgiving Saturday 3rd November 2018 Noon HISTORICAL NOTE Following the death of The Chief Scout of the World, The Lord Baden-Powell OM GCMG GCVO KCB DL, in 1941, a memorial stone was unveiled in Westminster Abbey on 23rd April 1947. From then until 1955, Scouting Headquarters staff and some members held an annual wreathlaying and a small service in the Abbey. In 1957, the centenary of Baden-Powell’s birth, the service was attended by members of the Royal Family. In years thereafter it was referred to as a Service of Thanksgiving, and became a much bigger celebration. From 1959 onwards, the service was held on the nearest Saturday to 22nd February and from 1978, following the death of Lady Baden-Powell GBE the previous year, this annual service changed in style and name to a joint celebration of Thinking Day and Founder’s Day. In 1981, a memorial was dedicated to Lord and Lady Baden-Powell in Westminster Abbey. In 2011, the arrangements for the service were reviewed and changed in the light of increasing local opportunities to celebrate these special occasions. The current arrangement nevertheless maintains the tradition of the annual service at Westminster Abbey, now known as the National Scout and Guide Service of Celebration and Thanksgiving and focuses on thanking the adult volunteer leaders and supporters for their service and dedication. WESTMINSTER ABBEY We cannot say with certainty when Westminster Abbey was founded, but we know that around the year 960 Benedictine monks settled on the marshy north bank of the Thames, in a place called Thorney Island.
