    Book Details:
  • Author : Humphrey Jennings
  • Publisher : Icon Books Ltd
  • Release : 2012-10-04
  • ISBN : 1848315864
  • Pages : 433 pages

Download or read book Pandaemonium 1660 1886 written by Humphrey Jennings and published by Icon Books Ltd. This book was released on 2012-10-04 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Collecting texts taken from letters, diaries, literature, scientific journals and reports, Pandæmonium gathers a beguiling narrative as it traces the development of the machine age in Britain. Covering the years between 1660 and 1886, it offers a rich tapestry of human experience, from eyewitness reports of the Luddite Riots and the Peterloo Massacre to more intimate accounts of child labour, Utopian communities, the desecration of the natural world, ground-breaking scientific experiments, and the coming of the railways. Humphrey Jennings, co-founder of the Mass Observation movement of the 1930s and acclaimed documentary film-maker, assembled an enthralling narrative of this key period in Britain's national consciousness. The result is a highly original artistic achievement in its own right. Thanks to the efforts of his daughter, Marie-Louise Jennings, Pandæmonium was originally published in 1985, and in 2012 it was the inspiration behind Danny Boyle's electrifying Opening Ceremony for the London Olympic Games. Frank Cottrell Boyce, who wrote the scenario for the ceremony, contributes a revealing new foreword for this edition.

Book Restaging the Past

    Book Details:
  • Author : Angela Bartie
  • Publisher : UCL Press
  • Release : 2020-08-17
  • ISBN : 1787354059
  • Pages : 344 pages

Download or read book Restaging the Past written by Angela Bartie and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2020-08-17 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Restaging the Past is the first edited collection devoted to the study of historical pageants in Britain, ranging from their Edwardian origins to the present day. Across Britain in the twentieth century, people succumbed to ‘pageant fever’. Thousands dressed up in historical costumes and performed scenes from the history of the places where they lived, and hundreds of thousands more watched them. These pageants were one of the most significant aspects of popular engagement with the past between the 1900s and the 1970s: they took place in large cities, small towns and tiny villages, and engaged a whole range of different organised groups, including Women’s Institutes, political parties, schools, churches and youth organisations. Pageants were community events, bringing large numbers of people together in a shared celebration and performance of the past; they also involved many prominent novelists, professional historians and other writers, as well as featuring repeatedly in popular and highbrow literature. Although the pageant tradition has largely died out, it deserves to be acknowledged as a key aspect of community history during a period of great social and political change. Indeed, as this book shows, some traces of ‘pageant fever’ remain in evidence today.

Book Women in Parliament

Download or read book Women in Parliament written by Boni Sones and published by Politico's Publishing. This book was released on 2005 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How women MPs have become a force to be reckoned with - Most authoritative and wide-ranging anatomy of a political issue of perennial interest. - Based on interviews with women MPs, including Clare Short, Diane Abbott, Theresa May, Margaret Beckett, Mo Mowlam, Virginia Bottomley...- Already the subject of wide media coverage. - National newspaper serialisation under negotiation. For all the media babble about 'Blair's babes' and Theresa May's leopardskin shoes, the period since the Labour landslide in 1997 has seen a significant shift in the influence of women in the corridors of power - even if many male MPs are unable or unwilling to concede the fact. There are currently more women in the cabinet than ever before (six), and women MPs have had a hitherto unknown effect on policy, pushing such issues as child protection, rape and domestic violence to the centre of the political agenda. Based on extensive interviews with a cross-party group of some 100 MPs, ranging from current and former cabinet ministers to unfamiliar backbenchers, this book analyses the history of women in Parliament, the current period of change, and likely developments in the future.
