THE SALOPIAN Issue No TITLE HERE 1 THE SALOPIAN Issue No. 158 - Summer 2016 ith the shock waves of the recent decision to leave the EU still CONTENTS Wreverberating around the world, rarely has the Shrewsbury bubble seemed so disconcertingly seductive. But of course the bubble Academic News 4 is, and should be, an illusion, and it is perhaps more important than School Prizewinners 2016 7 ever for Shrewsbury’s pupils to be aware of what is going on outside the Scholarships 8 McEachran Prize 2016 8 bubble, so that their entry into a world which looks very different from Walking towards a Better Future 10 that into which, speaking for myself, I graduated in the late 1970s does Head of School 10 not come as too much of a shock. Jim Kennedy - obituary 11 Michael Schützer-Weissmann 12 That the rough seas of the wider world lap, or perhaps crash, against Ingsoc and Stalin 14 Our World is Beautiful 16 Shrewsbury’s walls, and that the chronic geopolitical instability we see The Pupil Voice 17 not only in Europe, but around the world, are not new phenomena, is Old Salopians in WWI - 1916 18 obvious, but we are sharply reminded of it in this issue by the centenary Ten Trees 20 article on 1916 and the Battle of the Somme in which many Salopians Art at Shrewsbury 26 lost their lives at a time when it must have seemed that Europe was Drama 28 Music 30 irreparably fractured. It is important for us all, whatever our political Miles Clark Travel Scholarship 32 persuasion, to keep such memories alive, for many reasons, but not least Rovers Return 35 to provide us with some perspective on the challenges which face us in RSSH 36 our own time. Rugby 40 Fives 42 RSSBC 45 Shrewsbury pupils had no choice but to engage with the wider world Commemorating 150 years of RSSBC 46 in the 1914-1918 war, if not directly, certainly in the sense of being Lacrosse 50 aware of what was happening to their families, former schoolmates and Netball 51 teachers. Within this issue will be seen a very different way in which Squash 51 pupils are increasingly recognising that we are an indivisible part of the Fencing 52 Basketball 53 wider world, a world which does not always look so pleasant as the From the Director 54 Shrewsbury Arcadia depicted on the front cover.

Last summer, she was a member of the Shrewsbury School team that represented the UK in the International Young Physicists’ Tournament in Thailand, where they won a bronze medal. One of the projects she worked on and presented involved the physics of a model hovercraft. After the competition, she continued to refine her research and submitted a paper describing the behaviour of a model hovercraft powered by a party balloon to the International Young Physicists’ Journal.

  • The Controversial Treatments of the Wallace Collection
    HOME ABOUT US THE JOURNAL MEMBERSHIP ARCHIVE LINKS 8 September 2011 The Controversial Treatments of the Wallace Collection Watteaus Restorers who blunder often present their dramatically altered works as miraculous “recoveries” or “discoveries”. Sometimes they (or their curators) park their handiwork in dark corners pending re-restorations (see the Phillips Collection restoration of Renoir’s “The Luncheon of the Boating Party” and the Louvre’s multi- restoration of Veronese’s “The Pilgrims of Emmaüs”). Here, Dr Selby Whittingham, the Secretary-General of the Watteau Society (and the 2011 winner of ArtWatch International’s Frank Mason Prize – see below), discusses the controversial restorations of Watteau paintings at the Wallace Collection and calls for greater transparency and accountability in the treatment of old masters. Above, Fig. 1: “Les charmes de la vie”, (reversed) engraving by Pierre Aveline, after Antoine Watteau, the British Museum, London. Selby Whittingham writes: The Watteau exhibitions held in London 12 March – 5 June 2011 prompted much comment, but little about the condition of the oils at the Wallace Collection [- see endnote 1]. Exceptionally Brian Sewell mentioned their poor state: “both overcleaned and undercleaned, victims of cleaners with Brillo pads and restorers with a taste for gravy.” [2] This was a bit sweeping, but had some justification. In the Watteau Society Bulletin 1985 Sarah Walden contrasted the recent restorations at the Wallace Collection with those at the Louvre and the Above, Fig. 2: Watteau’s “Les charmes de la vie” as reproduced in the Wallace Collection’s 1960 volume of different philosophies behind them [3].

  • Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Cosmopolitan Reflections
    Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Cosmopolitan Reflections David Hirsh Department of Sociology, Goldsmiths, University of London, New Cross, London SE14 6NW, UK The Working Papers Series is intended to initiate discussion, debate and discourse on a wide variety of issues as it pertains to the analysis of antisemitism, and to further the study of this subject matter. Please feel free to submit papers to the ISGAP working paper series. Contact the ISGAP Coordinator or the Editor of the Working Paper Series, Charles Asher Small. Working Paper Hirsh 2007 ISSN: 1940-610X © Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy ISGAP 165 East 56th Street, Second floor New York, NY 10022 United States Office Telephone: 212-230-1840 www.isgap.org ABSTRACT This paper aims to disentangle the difficult relationship between anti-Zionism and antisemitism. On one side, antisemitism appears as a pressing contemporary problem, intimately connected to an intensification of hostility to Israel. Opposing accounts downplay the fact of antisemitism and tend to treat the charge as an instrumental attempt to de-legitimize criticism of Israel. I address the central relationship both conceptually and through a number of empirical case studies which lie in the disputed territory between criticism and demonization. The paper focuses on current debates in the British public sphere and in particular on the campaign to boycott Israeli academia. Sociologically the paper seeks to develop a cosmopolitan framework to confront the methodological nationalism of both Zionism and anti-Zionism. It does not assume that exaggerated hostility to Israel is caused by underlying antisemitism but it explores the possibility that antisemitism may be an effect even of some antiracist forms of anti- Zionism.

  • Whittingdale and the Ex-Dominatrix: Conspiracy of Silence Or
    Whittingdale and the ex-dominatrix: conspiracy of silence or provided by LSE Research Online View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk CORE goobrought to you by d press behaviour? blogs.lse.ac.uk/polis/2016/04/13/whittingdale-and-the-ex-dominatrix-conspiracy-of-silence-or-good-press- behaviour/ 2016-4-13 This is the original version of an article that appeared in Newsweek on 13.4.16. The John Whittingdale ‘dominatrix’ story is a classic case study of the eternal balancing act between the right to privacy and the public interest in disclosure. In practice this is rarely a purely ethical or editorial decision. Inevitably, legal, political and taste issues will come into play. The circumstantial details are vital. Yes, ‘publish and be damned’ but in a country without a First Amendment, there has to be a justification. In the highly competitive UK newspaper market editors hate to spike juicy tales of politicians and former sex workers. Yet, in the febrile debate over British journalism that has followed the Leveson inquiry into phone-hacking we find ourselves in the intriguing situation where the advocates of restraint, such as the pro-regulation campaigners at Hacked Off, are urging publication of details of the private love life of an unmarried individual. John_Whittingdale There is a good reason to publish this story now. The suspicion is that when some newspapers knew about it back in 2013/14 they did not run with it because they feared pushing the Secretary of State responsible for media regulation into implementing Lord Justice Leveson’s suggestions for statutory oversight of the UK press.

  • BAOMS Travel Award 2018 Edited Photos- Project Harar
    BAOMS Travel Award 2018 Project Harar Report by Abi Estelle Established in 2001, Project Harar is a growing charity providing complex facial reconstruction surgeries to Ethiopians. The charity has a long term in-country presence with the cleft programme as well as an annual complex mission for the complicated cases that are encountered throughout the year. The annual complex mission begins with a two week pre-op phase. The patients are collected from their homes, usually they are from rural parts of the country, they often travel hundreds of miles to the capital city Addis Ababa. Over the first two weeks, the patients see a team of junior doctors and nurses (mostly from the UK) history and examination are completed as well as routine labs tests and relevant imaging. They also have supplemented nutrition over this time and most will gain several kilograms (one man gained 7kg!). I flew out with the surgical team to join the second two week phase. We arrived 6am on a Saturday and at 9.30am we began seeing the 61 patients who the pre-op team had already efficiently worked up. Their history was presented on powerpoint, they met the surgical team and were examined and then saw anaesthesia for an airway plan. On Sunday, we all met again to form the surgical schedule for the coming two weeks of operating. First, we allocated the large operations (5hours) time on the schedule, one such case in each theatre (one maxillofacial run by Prof McGurk and one plastics run by Prof. Martin). Any cases requiring sub-mental flaps or longer wound reviews were put in the first week.

  • Saints and Sinners: Lessons About Work from Daytime TV
    Saints and sinners: lessons about work from daytime TV First draft article by Ursula Huws for International Journal of Media and Cultural Politics Introduction This article looks at the messages given by factual TV programmes to audiences about work, and, in particular, the models of working behaviour that have been presented to them during the period following the 2007‐8 financial crisis. It focuses particularly, but not exclusively, on daytime TV, which has an audience made up disproportionately of people who have low incomes and are poorly educated: an audience that, it can be argued, is not only more likely than average to be dependent on welfare benefits and vulnerable to their withdrawal but also more likely to be coerced into entering low‐paid insecure and casual employment. It argues that the messages cumulatively given by ‘factual’ TV, including reality TV programmes ostensibly produced for entertainment as well as documentaries, combine to produce a particular neoliberal model of the deserving worker (counterposed to the undeserving ‘scrounger’ or ‘slacker’) highly suited to the atomised and precarious labour markets of a globalised economy. This is, however, a model in which there are considerable tensions between different forms of desired behaviour: on the one hand, a requirement for intense, individualised and ruthless competitiveness and, on the other, a requirement for unquestioning and self‐sacrificing loyalty and commitment to the employer and the customer. These apparently contradictory values are, however, synthesised in a rejection, often amounting to demonisation, of collective values of fairness, entitlement and solidarity. The context Despite the explosive growth of the internet and multiplication of devices for accessing it, television remains the main means by which most people absorb narrative information.
