History in the Hands of the Contemporary Playwright 2000-2015: a Feminist Critique of Normative Historiography in British Theatre
History in the hands of the Contemporary Playwright 2000-2015: a feminist critique of normative historiography in British theatre. Submitted by Rebecca Amy Fraser to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Drama in June 2017 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. Abstract Abstract Between 2000 and 2015 twelve of the UK’s leading producing theatres premiered twenty three plays by British playwrights where the action was set between 1882-1928. This historical period is significant; in 1882 the Married Women’s Property Act was passed and in 1928 equal enfranchisement for men and women was granted in the United Kingdom, hence, the historical period traces a shift in women’s rights from property ownership to the vote. This thesis investigates narratives within these plays and explores the development of a normative historiography that is drawn on, but predominantly left unquestioned, by playwrights as Britain’s past is reimagined. It is this normative historiography, operating in a theatrical context, which the thesis problematises and interrogates through the lens of contemporary British playwriting. This lens facilitates an exploration of the manner in which the representation of the past mirrors and/or challenges current feminist discourse and considers the cultural implications of the structures and techniques employed to retell women their history through this medium. -

'Reforming Academicians', Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, C
‘Reforming Academicians’, Sculptors of the Royal Academy of Arts, c.1948-1959 by Melanie Veasey Doctoral Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy of Loughborough University, September 2018. © Melanie Veasey 2018. For Martin The virtue of the Royal Academy today is that it is a body of men freer than many from the insidious pressures of fashion, who stand somewhat apart from the new and already too powerful ‘establishment’.1 John Rothenstein (1966) 1 Rothenstein, John. Brave Day Hideous Night. London: Hamish Hamilton Ltd., 1966, 216. Abstract Page 7 Abstract Post-war sculpture created by members of the Royal Academy of Arts was seemingly marginalised by Keynesian state patronage which privileged a new generation of avant-garde sculptors. This thesis considers whether selected Academicians (Siegfried Charoux, Frank Dobson, Maurice Lambert, Alfred Machin, John Skeaping and Charles Wheeler) variously engaged with pedagogy, community, exhibition practice and sculpture for the state, to access ascendant state patronage. Chapter One, ‘The Post-war Expansion of State Patronage’, investigates the existing and shifting parameters of patronage of the visual arts and specifically analyses how this was manifest through innovative temporary sculpture exhibitions. Chapter Two, ‘The Royal Academy Sculpture School’, examines the reasons why the Academicians maintained a conventional fine arts programme of study, in contrast to that of industrial design imposed by Government upon state art institutions for reasons of economic contribution. This chapter also analyses the role of the art-Master including the influence of émigré teachers, prospects for women sculpture students and the post-war scarcity of resources which inspired the use of new materials and techniques. -

THE GREAT BRITAIN PHILATELIC SOCIETY 1955–2015 DIAMOND JUBILEE CELEBRATED AT THE ROYAL PHILATELIC SOCIETY LONDON 10 DECEMBER 2015 Great Britain Philatelic Society Diamond Jubilee Display at the Royal Philatelic Society London 10 December 2015 he GBPS has always had close ties with the RPSL. Five of our 21 Presidents have also been TPresident of the Royal. It is fitting then that this Jubilee display should take place at 41 Devonshire Place, the site of our first meeting. In November 1955 the following notice appeared in Stamp Collecting and 30 other journals in 16 countries: . an inaugural meeting with a view to form a Great Britain Specialist Society will be held at the Royal Philatelic Society, London on Saturday, December 3rd 1955 at 2.30. p.m. Major Beaumont, President of the ‘Royal’ and himself a specialist in certain British issues, has consented to act as Chairman of the meeting. Arrangements are being made by Mr R. A. G. Lee . who extends an invitation to any interested collector to attend. At that meeting were 48 prospective members (28 of whom enrolled that day) including Beaumont, Lee, Silkin, Willcocks, Stitt-Dibden and Jay. It is apparent that there was considerable discussion as to the proposed name of the society, which included GB Specialists Society, Society of British Philately, and the Great Britain Philatelic Society: The chairman . said that the Royal P.S.was usually in favour of such bodies calling themselves ‘Study Circles’ although he did not feel that it would object to...(any)...title proposed. An annual subscription fee of two guineas, with an initial entrance fee of one guinea, was established.
