Miscellaneous 455 - 464 Section III Books by Christopher Thacker 465 - 483 Introduction Christopher Thacker was a distinguished garden historian, lecturer in French literature, eminent Voltaire scholar and a leading pioneer in garden history as an academic discipline. He was also a voracious book collector whose shelves teemed with the connected threads of a long and varied life. His widow, Thomasina Beck, told me of the excitement with which he would receive booksellers’ catalogues and pore over them in search of some obscure author. His search was academic rather than aesthetic and he would forgive a copy a little grubbiness or some restoration if it furthered his intellectual quest. Very much a scholar’s collection, Christopher’s extensive knowledge informs the presence of each book so that an apparent mystery – why this book? – is always solved on closer inspection. The random inclusion of a book of poems is revealed as a study in landscape, or a perennial calendar turns out to have a wealth of beautifully observed information on garden flowers. So that browsing through this collection, one is graced with moments of surprise as connections open into fields of interest, as a carefully landscaped parterre reveals a sudden vista with distant grottoes, all carefully framed and mutually dependant. Educated at Portsmouth Grammar School and Brasenose College Oxford, where he read Modern Languages and spent his spare time acting or flying with the University Air Squadron, on one occasion Christopher famously looped the loop over Brasenose in a Chipmunk. After Oxford, he married Jean Stewart and they moved to Cyprus where Christopher succeeded Laurence Durrell as PA to a Greek millionaire. It was here that he published his first serious work, a well-researched booklet on the long history of winemaking in Cyprus. In 1958 he embarked on his academic career, taking a Diploma in Education at Oxford before going to Indiana University to take a PhD on ‘Attitudes of European Travellers to the Levant (1696- 1811)’. After this he spent three years teaching French Literature at Trinity College Dublin before becoming senior lecturer in French at Reading University, where he was to spend the next 15 years. During this time he published his Voltaire, 1971, an acclaimed critical edition of Candide, 1968 and, what many regard as his most original and important book, The Wildness Pleases: on the Origins of Romanticism, 1983. He would later publish his own translation of Candide in a splendid folio edition produced by the Libanus Press with illustrations by Angela Barrett. It was from Christopher’s studies of the French eighteenth century that his understanding of the great cultural significance of gardens was to grow. In particular, it was Christopher’s immersion in Candide, and the link between fantasy and topography that formed his fascination with the location of Candide’s redemptive garden, that in turn sparked the passion for garden history that was to dominate the rest of Christopher’s life, an exemplar of Candide’s final injunction: ‘il faut cultiver notre jardin’. Christopher now joined the Garden History Society (later The Gardens Trust) and in 1972 became the founding editor of its journal, Garden History. It was here that he met Thomasina Beck, the embroidery and gardens expert who later became his second wife, when he published her article ‘Gardens in Elizabethan Embroidery’. He was one of the founding Trustees of the Museum of Garden History (now the Garden Museum next to Lambeth Palace) and worked tirelessly with its founder Rosemary Nicholson prior to its opening in 1986 and for many years afterwards. Christopher was also employed by English Heritage as the first inspector for the comprehensive Register of Parks and Gardens of Historic Interest. His classic work, The History of Gardens, 1979, was hailed by Nigel Nicholson as by ‘our leading expert on the subject’ and ‘impossible to excel’ (Daily Telegraph, 1979). Other works of particular note by Christopher include his Masters of the Grotto, Joseph and Josiah Lane, 1976 and Building Towers, Forming Gardens: landscaping by Hamilton, Hoare and Beckford, 2002. When I first went to Christopher and Thomasina’s house to look at the books, it was a breath-catching moment. Books everywhere, of course, but most memorable was the large, light drawing room, with its ordered but teeming shelves, beautiful paintings and the piano which Christopher rushed off to play, delighted at the invitation. Beyond the piano, the vista, towards the lovingly tended garden. And Christopher, all friendliness, mirth and remembered delight, as we stood surrounded by his books, talking about Voltaire. Tim Jeal, Christopher’s brother-in-law, wrote of the warmth of Christopher’s personality, even after the onset of vascular dementia that had put an end to his academic career. ‘Many people have remarked upon Christopher’s ‘sweetness’ and really there is no other word for the way in which his habitual manner combined modesty, courtesy, kindness and concern for whoever he was speaking to. His smile was delightful and never forced … Perhaps the most memorable manifestation of his desire to help and please was his eagerness to amuse people with one of the personal anecdotes he still remembered. Christopher was extremely sociable and loved going out and talking to people, including complete strangers, and making them laugh. Though sweet and lovable, he could also be wickedly and naughtily funny, an echo perhaps of his childhood delight in jokes and pranks’. As a boy, Christopher had immersed himself in his father’s collection of Punch. He used to delight in his father’s accounts of practical jokes he had been involved in during the war, writing later that these seemed to him ‘the breath of life, joyous reversals of the accepted order of things, a setting upside down of properness’. It was while Christopher was at Oxford that Stephen Potter’s Lifemanship books were first published, to his great delight: ‘Potter explored, analysed, codified, and with brilliant success, a spacious region of laughter’. To Christopher, laughter was to be taken seriously. Using a favourite phrase, borrowed from Homer, he wrote: ‘it is this asbestos gelos [literally, fire-proof laughter] which raises us above the brute beast, for we laugh, not only at the oddities of others, but at ourselves. We are liberated when we see how silly or pretentious we are, for laughing at ourselves gives us a chance – a gift of the gods – to do better, to be less silly, another time’. Section I Books 1534 - 1894 1. ADDISON, Joseph (1672-1719). Remarks on several parts of Italy, &c. In the Years 1701, 1702, 1703. By Joseph Addison, Esq. London, J. and R. Tonson, 1761. 12mo, pp. 303, [9], with occasional illustrations in the text, in contemporary plain calf, single gilt fillet to covers, plain spine with raised bands, ruled in gilt, red morocco label lettered in gilt, with the later pictorial bookplate of A.J. Sambrook and his inscription dated 1954. £120 An attractive copy of Addison’s popular account of his grand tour across Italy and into Switzerland, written while crossing the Alps in 1701 and first published in 1705. Numerous editions of this classic travel account were published throughout the eighteenth century. ‘After travelling south to Marseilles Addison took ship for Italy on 12 December 1700, but was driven back by a storm. In the end he reached Genoa by land, and then proceeded through Pavia to Milan and then Venice, after which he followed the accustomed route south, choosing to go via San Marino and Loreto as he journeyed briefly to Rome and then on to Naples. He climbed Vesuvius, sailed round Capri, and sailed back up the coast to Rome. Here he passed a more extended sojourn, visiting churches, annotating architecture and antiquities, and undertaking trips out to literary shrines such as Tivoli and Frascati.

In this short editorial coda, I cannot do justice to all of the responses, even though each is valuable and instructive. I should like, first of all, brieflyto review each contribution. In the remainder of what I have to say, I shall then respond in more general terms about the nature of the overall project of reading his- torical women philosophers as part of the republican tradition, with the aim of tackling what I consider to be some misconceptions. In so doing, I will address myself mostly to Karen Green’s[2021] article which is the most sceptical about the endeavour, although I shall also engage with Lena Halldenius [2021].

His death in that conflict meant that this was a career that lasted barely twenty years; however it comprised a large range of creative endeavours. Although all these facets of Whistler’s career are touched upon, the main focus is on his work in murals and the fields of advertising and commercial design. The thesis goes beyond the remit of a purely biographical stance and places Whistler’s career in context by looking at the contemporary art world in which he worked, and the private, commercial and public commissions he secured. In doing so, it aims to provide a more comprehensive account of Whistler’s achievement than has been afforded in any of the existing literature or biographies. This deeper examination of the artist’s practice has been made possible by considerable amounts of new factual information derived from the Whistler Archive and other archival sources.

For Click here for a PDF version. Reviewers Click here to buy the book on Amazon. About Us Masthead This book could have begun with a variant of my favorite opening line--from Steven Shapin's The Scientific Revolution (1996): "There was no such thing as [Romanticism], and this is a book about it." As Gay's prologue notes, "if there were Feedback German romantics and French romantics, they did not start from the same initial impulse, did not develop the same cultural expressions in their literature and their art" (xii-xiii). Proposing, then, to talk of romanticisms--the plural is used throughout the book, as in most discussions of romanticism(s) these days--he treats the movement as a "large . far-flung family" (19) rather than as homogeneous. Gay nonetheless finds certain shared preoccupations, primarily in French and German literature, visual art, and music between the late eighteenth century and the mid-twentieth century. Peter Gay died at 91 in 2015, the year this book was published. Not surprisingly, since his thirty-some previous books have covered Weimar, Freud, the Enlightenment, and Modernism, a good deal of this new book highlights modernity and modernism with some glances back at the eighteenth century. Thus he tacitly argues that the romanticisms he explores not only emerged from the Enlightenment but also persisted well into the twentieth century. As Gay concludes in a brief epilogue, twentieth-century novelists, poets, composers, painters, dramatists, and architects "lived off the [romantic] past" (116), suggesting that modernity is a cluster of romanticisms under a different name.

  • Rex Whistler 1905 - 1944
    Rex Whistler Rex in front of his tank with his tank crew Rex Whistler 1905 - 1944 Christened Reginald John Whistler, but always known as Rex. He was born on June 24th 1905 in Eltham, Greater, London. From a very early age he was very good at drawing. He had a talent for drawing from memory which was quite frowned on when he was at The Royal Academy; he only lasted one term there. He was then taken on at Slade School of Art, where Professor Henry Tonks saw that he had a rare talent. He wanted his students to paint murals and that is how Rex came to paint the restaurant walls in the Tate Britain in London. Whilst at The Slade he was befriended by Stephen Tennant, son of Baron Glenconner and later on stepson of Viscount Grey. This was Rex’s introduction to the rich and famous and also to Wiltshire, which he really loved and came back time and time again. It was through Stephen that Rex came in contact with Edith Olivier, who lived at Daye House in the grounds of Wilton House. This was a platonic relationship as Edith was 33 years older than him. But she became his mentor on almost everything that was going on in his life. During his lifetime because of her and Stephen’s connections, Rex moved in the circle of the “bright young things “and painted for the rich and famous. He was not just an artist; he illustrated books, designed posters and china, did stage sets as well as the costumes.

  • Menagerie Manor, by Gerald Durrell. Hart-Davis, 21S. Those Who Have Been Enchanted by Mr
    Book Reviews 61 Zoo Yearbook). The other criticism of this fine production is that the photographs are ludicrously inadequate for the subject. With only eight pages of photographs for 761 pages of text, they can hardly even begin to sum up the visual aspects of the management of captive animals. But it is churlish to comment adversely on these minor points when the author has provided us with such an immensely useful desk volume. No one concerned with the care of wild mammals can afford to be without it. DESMOND MORRIS Menagerie Manor, by Gerald Durrell. Hart-Davis, 21s. Those who have been enchanted by Mr. DurrelPs previous animal books will not be disappointed by this one describing the first five years of the Jersey Zoo at Les Augres Manor. It consists of a series of delightfully told anecdotes about the inmates of a very happy zoo. Visiting there last summer I was immediately impressed by the tameness and general well- being of the animals, due, I am certain to the pains which Mr. Durrell and his staff take to get to know each one as an individual; they all recognised and greeted him with unmistakable affection when he passed by. The author is conservation-minded, and he describes the dilemma of the zoo director faced with the offer from a dealer of a young orang-utan. Should he refuse it on the grounds that to accept is to stimulate further demand ? Or should he accept because his zoo offers the best chance of survival for this particular animal ? Until the zoos and conservation authorities have this question worked out and until the recent legislation controlling the import of rare animals in this country becomes effective, the zoo director must be guided by his conscience and balance his altruism against his acquisitive enthusiasm.
