JANUARY -all courses currently running
We look at rich and poor and their world: architecture and living conditions from large country estates and town houses to humble cottages and pitiful town rookeries of the residuum.
.
.
There was a strict hierarchy which existed "below stairs" that was far more snobbish than that between master and servant. The domestic life of the servant, their duties, wages and relationship with the houses in which they worked is a fascinating one. Mrs Beeton was the Delia Smith of her day and introduced technology into household management. She was a feminist and writer of hundreds of articles on every topic imaginable.
.
We study the poor, their lack of amenities, deficient nutrition, and the effect of their appalling living and working conditions.

Women, Wartime and the Homefront
Life for women during Wartime and how they coped during the later 1940’s after war ended when life had changed completely. We look at women at war – their occupations in the armed services, as pilots, nurses, typists, working in the Land Army, in factories, in the WRVS and other voluntary organisations, as well as being housewives and mothers. Some women worked as spies or at Bletchley Park tapping out codes on the Enigma machine. At home during war and after, women had to cope with rationing and learning to ‘make do and mend’ while attempting to remain glamorous keeping up with fashion and cosmetics. When war ended women found it difficult to give up their new independence, life in the family changed and so did relationships. Illustrated.

The Victorian World (1837-1890)
Huge social changes in all aspects of life: merchandising and consumerism, effects of the railway, life at home, at work, in factories and mills; effects of the Industrial Revolution, rise of the middle-class, the affluent and wealthy, and living conditions of the poor. We look at architecture, housing, social and sanitary reforms, including the work of Chadwick and Mayhew. Elaborate forms of etiquette ruled everyday life, especially for the aspiring middle-class, and were a minefield of manners in the complex new social structure.
Illustrated with slides, dvd, books, costume.

Looking at Victorian Art - paintings as social history
Victorian narrative paintings tell us much more than the main topic. They are full of symbolism and expose other features we hardly notice. These 'extras' tell us more about the period and its social history, Painters wanted to show domestic scenes and 'real life' and were not afraid of controversial subjects which might shock the public. Massive social and cultural changes took place within the period which painters wanted to tell us about but, as they did so, they were also exposing much more - a little girl bringing her father's lunch to his workplace, the inner turmoil of an emigrating couple, the pain of parting, or he long engagement, as well as tiny figures and scenes around the main subject we almost miss. Narrative paintings of various topics open up our view of art and enable us to see and enjoy it in a totally different way. Illustrated with many slides.

Victorian Life and Leisure 1851-1875
We study general life, as well as the family, work, leisure, travel, art and culture. This period saw the burgeoning "leisure industry", holidays - particularly the seaside - travel to the countryside, and the new green spaces of the town as public parks were opened for al to enjoy and benefit. Working life was a different matter and there was little time off from the hard and continuous grind for the poor. But society was changing and we look at the urban environment, railway, public health and civic amenities, as well as improvements in working hours and conditions, plus poverty and unemployment, philanthropy and poor relief.
Illustrated with PowerPoint, DVD, books, images and texts.

The Edwardians
A golden age before war was to change the idyll of elegant life for the wealthy - but not for the poor and those living in slums. Hard toil and labour were eased by meagre ‘leisure’ time: adventures in cinema & music hall, joys of cycling and motor car, or a seaside holiday. We also look at Edwardian architecture, interiors, furnishing, domestic life and complex rules of etiquette - from the giddy social whirl ‘above stairs’ to servant hierarchy and life ‘below stairs’.
Illustrated with slides, film and books.
