  • The Leeds Arts Club and the New Age: Art and Ideas in a Time of War by Tom Steele Thank You Very Much Nigel, That's a Very Generous Introduction

    The Leeds Arts Club and the New Age: Art and Ideas in a Time of War by Tom Steele Thank You Very Much Nigel, That's a Very Generous Introduction

    TRANSCRIPT Into the Vortex: The Leeds Arts Club and the New Age: Art and Ideas in a Time of War by Tom Steele Thank you very much Nigel, that's a very generous introduction. Thank you for inviting me back to the Leeds Art Gallery where I spent so many happy hours. As Nigel said, the book was actually published in 1990, but it was a process of about 5 or 6 year work, in fact it's turned into a PHD. I've not done a lot of other work on it since, I have to say some very very good work has been done on Tom Perry and other peoples in the meantime, and it's grievously in danger of being the new edition, which I might or might not get around to, but maybe somebody else will. Anyway, what I'm going to do is to read a text. I'm not very good at talking extensively, and it should take about 40 minutes, 45 minutes. This should leave us some time for a discussion afterwards, I hope. Right, I wish I'd thought about the title and raw text before I offered the loan up to the gallery, because it makes more sense, and you'll see why as we go along. I want to take the liberty of extending the idea of war to cover the entire decade 1910-1920, one of the most rebellious and innovative periods in the history of British art. By contrast, in cultural terms, we now live in a comparatively quiet period.
  • The Distributist Alternative

    The Distributist Alternative

    www.secondspring.co.uk/economy The Distributist Alternative Russell Sparkes When people think of G.K. Chesterton, they normally remember his literary achievements: the essays, the Father Brown stories, the wealth of aphorisms that are still widely quoted. However, I suspect that if you had asked the man himself what part of his work he was most proud of, he would have said something that is almost totally forgotten today: his advocacy of a social and political philosophy called ‘Distributism’. In my talk today I want to tell you what this was, what its antecedents and inspirations were, and its lasting value. Distributism’s main tenet was that property should be as widely distributed as possible, and business should be local. There was advocacy of the economy being centred upon the production of goods, and suspicion of the role of high finance. It was advocated principally by G.K. Chesterton and Hilaire Belloc from 1910 onwards, although others such as the Dominican priest Vincent McNabb, the artist Eric Gill, and the guild socialist Arthur Penty also contributed ideas. However, many of these latter had their own agenda, and while they were active in the Distributist movement, their advocacy of homespun craftsmanship or of the ‘social credit’ theories of Major Douglas.[1] They were peripheral to Distributism whose key texts are Chesterton’s Outline of Sanity published in 1926, and Belloc’s Essay on the Restoration of Property of 1936. In the depressed economic conditions of the 1920s Distributism became a political movement as well as an economic programme which was led and inspired by Chesterton through a little magazine that he edited and whose heavy losses he funded.

    THE SOURCES AND USES OF DISTRIBUTISM: A ROMAN CATHOLIC’S VIEW OF ANGLO-CATHOLIC GENIUS Michael Black The past popularity, the long tradition of religion supported it diverse champions against a present neglect. --Charles Williams, Shadows of Ecstasy Tradition asserts itself especially in a crisis. Deeply held but forgotten beliefs present us with familiar novelty, a ‘commodius vicus of recirculation’ of ideas which offer themselves as solutions to contemporary social problems. In our current economic crisis, the early 20th-century idea of Distributism is receiving renewed attention as a serious contribution to national policy in the United Kingdom. This essay is a personal response which I hope may find a place in the growing debate. In September 2008, the bankruptcy of the Wall Street investment bank Lehman Brothers caused financial markets around the world to freeze with fear. The consensus of City pundits and Whitehall policy-makers was that the world had entered uncharted economic waters. Not just respectable opinion, but long-held theories about economics were discredited decisively. A revival of the unconventional and marginal in an environment of intellectual despair was probably inevitable. One little known socio-economic concept, Distributism, which was championed by G.K Chesterton and Hilaire Belloc in the 1920’s and 30’s, came to some renewed prominence on both sides of the Atlantic. In North America, for example, within only a few months of the Lehman failure, the American quarterly Chesterton Review conducted a symposium advertising the relevance of Distributism as a solution to the global economic meltdown. Fr Ian Boyd, the editor, recommended what he considered an ‘evolved distributism’ in several cooperative industrial movements as economic models on a scale which could be controlled by human beings.1 In July, Fr Boyd gave a further lecture in Oxford on ‘A Distributist View of the Economic Crisis’.

  • An Editors Progress

    An Editors Progress

    NEW AGE SUPPLEMENT NO. 3 – November 22, 1934 An Editor’s Progress (This autobiographical article first appeared in “The Commonweal” (U.S.A.) in 1926, and was largely reprinted in THE NEW AGE during the same year by the courtesy of the editor of “The Commonweal” and Mr. Orage.) By A. R. Orage. PART 1. – THE NEW AGE I was looking through some old volumes of THE NEW AGE the other day, with the intention of tracing the earliest published work of a number of now well-known writers – Miss Katherine Mansfield, Michael Arlen (then Dikran Kouyoumdjian), W. L. George, Jack Collings Squire, and a host of others. As usually happens, my search was soon abandoned for still more personal recollections – of the hopes and fears and thrills and mortifications of fifteen years of editorship. There was no value in that, however; it was simply throwing good money after bad. And by and by I settled down to an orderly review of the course of development of my economic thought during those fifteen years. As I have no doubt that the trail I followed will prove to be a highway when a sufficient number of people have trodden it, a brief itinerary of the journey may serve the purposes of a guide. Like every intellectual in those days – I refer to the earliest years of the twentieth century – I began as some sort of a Socialist. Socialism was not then either the popular or unpopular vogue it has since become; but it was much more of a cult, with affiliations in directions now quite disowned – with theosophy, arts and crafts, vegetarianism, the “simple life,” and almost, as one might say, the musical glasses.

    Dorothy Day and the Beginning of St. Joseph House of Hospitality in Pittsburgh 1936-1941 by Paul Dvorchak Dorothy Day ( 1897-1980) is perhaps the most well-known American Pittsburgh as part of her peripatetic visitations of all Catholic Worker Roman Catholic of the twentieth century. As the cause for her houses and groups in the United States. After her encounter with the canonization by the Catholic Church has been opened, she can now retreats conducted by Rev. John Hugo, Day visited Pittsburgh as part be referred to as a "Servant of God." A historian described Day as "the of her on-going spiritual journey as well as her interest in the social most significant, interesting, and influential person in the history of problems of the day- whether they were labor-related, issues of American Catholicism."1 Catholic Worker Tom Cornell observed: war and peace, or the Church's role in serving the poor.

  • In Dialogue with English Modernism: Storm Jameson's Early

    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.
