Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1984, Toynbee Hall, The First Hundred Years is not just a centenary study, but a personal contribution to the continuing history of Toynbee Hall, which is the Universities’ settlement in East London, and an institution that has inspired respect and affection. Its pioneering role as a residential community living and working in the heart of one of London’s most deprived areas has been maintained. Called a ‘social workshop’ by its late chairman John Profumo, Toynbee Hall promotes ventures such as Free Legal Advice, the Workers Educational Association, and the Whitechapel Art Gallery. The book looks at the social changes that have taken place over the 100 years since Toynbee Hall was founded in 1884, but also notes curious parallels, with persistent patterns of poverty, deprivation, squalor and racial separation which characterise the area. Questions about the facts and perceptions of poverty, the nature of community, the visual as well as the social environment, and the roles of voluntary, local and national statutory policy still require answers.

This book was released on 2017-04-21 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2018 Choice Outstanding Academic Title ******************************** The Late-Victorian cultural mission to London’s slums was a peculiar effort towards social reform that today is largely forgotten or misunderstood. The philanthropy of middle and upper-class social workers saw hundreds of art exhibitions, concerts of fine music, evening lectures, clubs and socials, debates and excursions mounted for the benefit of impoverished and working-class Londoners. Ginn’s vivid and provocative book captures many of these in detail for the first time. In refreshing our understanding of this obscure but eloquent activism, Ginn approaches cultural philanthropy not simply as a project of class self-interest, nor as fanciful ‘missionary aestheticism.’ Rather, he shows how liberal aspirations towards adult education and civic community can be traced in a number of centres of moralising voluntary effort. Concentrating on Toynbee Hall in Whitechapel, the People’s Palace in Mile End, Red Cross Hall in Southwark and the Bermondsey Settlement, the discussion identifies the common impulses animating practical reformers across these settings. Drawing on new primary research to clarify reformers’ underlying intentions and strategies, Ginn shows how these were shaped by a distinctive diagnosis of urban deprivation and anomie. In rebutting the common view that cultural philanthropy was a crudely paternalistic attempt to impose ‘rational recreation’ on the poor, this volume explores its sources in a liberal-minded social idealism common to both religious and secular conceptions of social welfare in this period. Culture, Philanthropy and the Poor in Late-Victorian London appeals to students and researchers of Victorian culture, moral reform, urbanism, adult education and philanthropy, who will be fascinated by this underrated but lively aspect of the period’s social activism.

Book excerpt: Amidst the sea of squalid brick tenements and working-class two-up, two-down houses of late nineteenth-century London, new building types arose, large in scale and bold in their message: the triple-storied Queen Anne board schools, the mock Elizabethan settlement houses, an Arts and Crafts free public art gallery replete with mystic symbolism, and as first conceived, a neo-Byzantine pleasure palace for the working-classes.

Download or read book Ruskin in Perspective written by Carmen Casaliggi and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moving laterally across John Ruskinâ (TM)s complete work, this new anthology draws his ideas together around the common theme of perspective. Grouped into three parts (Art and Literature, Aesthetics and Politics, Geography and Landscape), the essays examine Ruskinâ (TM)s critical intervention both within its own period and in relation to its contemporary legacy. Drawing upon literary theory, art criticism, political, social and cultural history and biographical studies, the essays offer a new and exciting interdisciplinary approach to understanding the scale and relevance of Ruskinâ (TM)s thought. Topics include the role of the reader in Ruskinâ (TM)s work, Anglo-European encounters, Ruskinâ (TM)s style and political influence, national and cultural heritage, the aesthetics of painting, perspective and the sublime, and the impact of geology and evolutionary theory upon Ruskin and nineteenth-century culture. Illustrated throughout with examples from Ruskinâ (TM)s own art-work as well as the artists admired by him (such as J.M.W. Turner), the anthology will be invaluable for readers interested not only in Ruskin as writer, critic and commentator but also in his position within the changing currents of nineteenth and twentieth-century intellectual thought. This collection shows how Ruskin can still teach us to read and see. It breathes enthusiasm and scholarly care in a way that will appeal to a wide range of readers. I am very impressed by the wealth of illustration in the book, which seems to me indispensable for an understanding of Ruskin's thought and its relevance to us. The choice of contributors is harmonious and refreshing - established authorities rub shoulders with rising scholars. This really is an unusually vibrant, well thought-through and valuable collection on a key formative figure in the history of literature, art and criticism. Dr. Sarah Wood, University of Kent. Ruskin studies are currently flourishing (...) There is a wide ranging interest, on both sides of the Atlantic, reflected in the essays here by established European names as well as younger scholars. The compilation is well focused, which will give Ruskin in Perspective a distinctive character in its consideration of literature, aesthetics and geography, thereby appealing to a genuinely interdisciplinary audience. â "Stephen Wildman, Director and Curator, The Ruskin Library, Lancaster University
