  • 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

  • A History of the University of Manchester Since 1951
    Pullan2004jkt 10/2/03 2:43 PM Page 1 University ofManchester A history ofthe HIS IS THE SECOND VOLUME of a history of the University of Manchester since 1951. It spans seventeen critical years in T which public funding was contracting, student grants were diminishing, instructions from the government and the University Grants Commission were multiplying, and universities feared for their reputation in the public eye. It provides a frank account of the University’s struggle against these difficulties and its efforts to prove the value of university education to society and the economy. This volume describes and analyses not only academic developments and changes in the structure and finances of the University, but the opinions and social and political lives of the staff and their students as well. It also examines the controversies of the 1970s and 1980s over such issues as feminism, free speech, ethical investment, academic freedom and the quest for efficient management. The author draws on official records, staff and student newspapers, and personal interviews with people who experienced the University in very 1973–90 different ways. With its wide range of academic interests and large student population, the University of Manchester was the biggest unitary university in the country, and its history illustrates the problems faced by almost all British universities. The book will appeal to past and present staff of the University and its alumni, and to anyone interested in the debates surrounding higher with MicheleAbendstern Brian Pullan education in the late twentieth century. A history of the University of Manchester 1951–73 by Brian Pullan with Michele Abendstern is also available from Manchester University Press.

  • The Open Fields of Cheshire
    THE OPEN FIELDS OF CHESHIRE BY DOROTHY SYLVESTER, M.A., F.R.G.S. /CHESHIRE has long lain in the no man's land of early \-s cultivation systems. In a borderland zone, and with the assembled information as to open arable lands limited to a few examples, it has been widely believed that common arable fields had little place in the development of Cheshire agronomy. H. L. Gray came nearest to the truth when he wrote in 1915 in English Field Systems that the vestiges of open common field mentioned in Tudor surveys suggested that earlier most hamlets in the county had had a certain amount of open arable land. Yet he only named twelve places in which it occurred. This opinion received little support from English historians and in 1938, the late Dr. C. S. Orwin's view was summed up in these words: "In Cumberland, Westmorland and Cheshire only a few scattered instances (i.e. of open field) have been found, those in Cheshire being mostly in the neighbourhood of Chester." (1) Nor was Orwin alone in assuming that it was correct to leave Cheshire almost a blank on the distribution map of open field in England. In the late 1940s a number of Manchester geographers began work on rural Cheshire from various angles and not by any means with the open-field question as their main concern. In particular, Mrs. Vera Chapman made a study of the Dee and Gowy valleys in Cheshire from which originated the paper Open Fields in West Cheshire, published in TRANSACTIONS Volume 104.

For details of the initial preferred scheme selected by Government, please see the Command Paper1. The initial preferred scheme will form the basis of further engagement. A preferred scheme will be published in 2013 that will form the basis of full public consultation. Anyone reading the March 2012 reports should be aware of the following: • The reports describe the development of options. The base proposition referred to is not a recommended or preferred scheme. • The reports describe route and station options serving Heathrow T5. The options do not reflect an initial preferred scheme. The Government has announced its intention to suspend work on high speed rail options to Heathrow until the Airports Commission has reported.

Telephone - 01565 632615 E-mail: [email protected] Hon Treasurer: Brian Williams, 15 Cawley Avenue, Culcheth, Warrington, Cheshire WA3 4DF NEWSLETTER Membership Secretary: Miss C. Lingard, 5 Moran Crescent, Macclesfield SK11 8JJ Sprin~ 20 11 - Number 51 ISSN 0954 - 1209 Editor's Letter Helen Smith 2010 has been an exciting and eventful year for the Gaskell Society. Exhibitions, entertainments, feasts and festivals have all contributed to the junketings throughout 1 the year. Elizabeth Gaskell entered Poets' Corner in time for her 200 h birthday. Knutsford celebrated 29th September with traditional sanding, bell-ringing, lecture at Brook Street Chapel followed by lunch at the Belle Epoque Brasserie beneath the Gaskell Memorial Tower and then a Gaskell walk. On the following morning, Joan Leach died. Tributes appear in this Newsletter and have been published elsewhere. Our founder, Joan, has been the galvanising force behind the Gaskell Society for 25 years. In November 1865 The Manchester Guardian ended its obituary of Elizabeth Gaskell with the sentence: "Her death leaves a blank that will not easily be filled." In some respects these simple words could be applied to our dear friend Joan. To end on a more positive note, 84 Plymouth Grove has now replaced the "pestilential drains" and continues to improve.
