  • Ruskin and South Kensington: Contrasting Approaches to Art Education
    Ruskin and South Kensington: contrasting approaches to art education Anthony Burton This article deals with Ruskin’s contribution to art education and training, as it can be defined by comparison and contrast with the government-sponsored art training supplied by (to use the handy nickname) ‘South Kensington’. It is tempting to treat this matter, and thus to dramatize it, as a personality clash between Ruskin and Henry Cole – who, ten years older than Ruskin, was the man in charge of the South Kensington system. Robert Hewison has commented that their ‘individual personalities, attitudes and ambitions are so diametrically opposed as to represent the longitude and latitude of Victorian cultural values’. He characterises Cole as ‘utilitarian’ and ‘rationalist’, as against Ruskin, who was a ‘romantic anti-capitalist’ and in favour of the ‘imaginative’.1 This article will set the personality clash in the broader context of Victorian art education.2 Ruskin and Cole develop differing approaches to art education Anyone interested in achieving artistic skill in Victorian England would probably begin by taking private lessons from a practising painter. Both Cole and Ruskin did so. Cole took drawing lessons from Charles Wild and David Cox,3 and Ruskin had art tuition from Charles Runciman and Copley Fielding, ‘the most fashionable drawing master of the day’.4 A few private art schools existed, the most prestigious being that run by Henry Sass (which is commemorated in fictional form, as ‘Gandish’s’, in Thackeray’s novel, The Newcomes).5 Sass’s school aimed to equip 1 Robert Hewison, ‘Straight lines or curved? The Victorian values of John Ruskin and Henry Cole’, in Peggy Deamer, ed, Architecture and capitalism: 1845 to the present, London: Routledge, 2013, 8, 21.

It will be possible to store muon beams with central momentum from 1 GeV/c to 6 GeV/c with a momentum acceptance of 16%. The nuSTORM facility will have the capability to: ,- ,- • Serve a definitive neutrino-nucleus scattering programme with uniquely well-characterised ν e and ν µ beams; • Allow searches for light sterile neutrinos with the exquisite sensitivity necessary to go beyond the reach of the FNAL Short Baseline Neutrino programme; and • Provide the technology test-bed required for the development of muon beams capable of serving as the basis for a multi-TeV lepton-antilepton (muon) collider.

    Exceptional People – Excelling in Care Royal Brompton and Harefield NHS Foundation Trust Job Profile Resident Medical Officer in Private Patients Royal Brompton Hospital Page Description of the Trust 2 – 8 Job Description 9 - 13 Person Specification 14 Appendix 15-16 1 Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust A System of Care Royal Brompton & Harefield NHS Foundation Trust is an internationally renowned centre for heart and lung services. Our brand identity is strong and clear: delivering the best clinical care and the best research for patients with heart and lung disease. Heart and Lung diseases are the world’s biggest killers and our experts care for patients who come from across the UK and overseas, not only from our local areas. Our integrated approach to caring for patients from the womb, through childhood, adolescence and into adulthood and old age has been replicated around the world and has gained the Trust an international reputation as a leader in heart and lung diagnosis, treatment, and research. Research programmes play a vital role at both our hospitals. This is because the most talented medical experts are rarely content with using tried and tested methods to treat their patients. The opportunity to influence the course of modern medicine by developing new treatments is a prospect that attracts them to specialist centres, where research opportunities are a fundamental part of delivering patient care. As well as travelling internationally to lecture and share their knowledge, our clinicians hold prominent positions on influential boards, committees, institutions and professional associations. Our closest academic partners are the National Heart and Lung Institute in the Faculty of Medicine Imperial College London and, the Harefield Heart Science Centre.

    Annual Report 2007/2008 imperialcollegeunion.org Annual Report 2007/2008 Page 2 imperialcollegeunion.org Foreword From the President Change has been the theme of 2007/2008 for Imperial College Union. Our facilities, decision making structures and staffing arrangements have been altered so that the Union is best placed to continue to meet the needs of our membership in the most equitable and efficient manner possible. This year we have secured £3.3 million to invest in to the Beit Redevelopment Project and building work is due to start over the coming months. Once this project is complete the student body will have up to date facilities that are fit for the 21st century. We have also successfully executed the task of implementing the governance reforms which were democratically chosen by the student body last year. Three external trustees were recruited last autumn and our new Trustee Board has already provided the organisation with useful perspectives on our finances and refurbishment project that could not be sourced from the otherwise considerable talents of the student body. The past year has also seen the Union embark on a scheme called the Students’ Union Evaluation Initiative which will provide an independent assessment of our effectiveness across all areas. This will in turn identify areas for continuous improvement which will form the basis of the Union’s next strategic review. The Union has been pro-active over the past year not to lose sight of our residual responsibilities to Wye College and the University of London Union (ULU). We have invested a considerable amount of human resource in ensuring that the The Union would not function if it wasn’t for the dedication of remaining students at Wye still have the opportunity through over 1000 volunteer officers and staff.
