The bloody clash that changed Britain | News On the morning of 16 August 1819, an immense crowd poured into Manchester, perhaps the largest the town had ever seen. They came in an orderly and peaceful fashion. Banners bearing slogans such as “Liberty and Fraternity” and “Taxation without Representation is Unjust and Tyrannical” flapped in the breeze, and bands played patriotic tunes including Rule Britannia and God Save the King. It was a fine and sunny day. On they came in cheerful mood; organised contingents from Bolton and Bury; 6,000 marching from Rochdale and Middleton; others from Saddleworth and Stalybridge; 200 women dressed in white from Oldham, together with families bringing their children and picnics with them. If later estimates that 60,000 people gathered at St Peter’s Field that day are correct, it means that practically half the population of Manchester and the surrounding towns (a crowd somewhat larger than that at Manchester City home matches today) had come to attend a meeting calling for parliamentary reform.
VIDEO: JonJon Explains How He Made An Animated Music Video In Three Weeks Working alone, JonJon forgoes storyboards and pretty much the whole development stage, and dives straight into the animation. As he draws, he gains an intuitive feel for the narrative. He sticks to black and white, which “is flexible and forgiving — you can play with the drawing a lot easier.” The characters are fleshed out in fleet brushstrokes against sparse backgrounds. Everything is done digitally. For Kina’s video, JonJon conducted research on the young Italian producer, which prompted visual ideas: for instance, the motif of two roses, which was inspired by one of his logos. JonJon also drew inspiration from the song itself. The concept of the director’s commentary cropped up during production. JonJon started by recording his screen while animating, then stringing the footage together and adding a voiceover.
Travel - Did this sleepy village stop the Black Death? Over the course of eight days in August 1667, Elizabeth Hancock lost her six children and her husband. Covering her mouth with a handkerchief against the stench of decay, she dragged their bodies to a nearby field and buried them. Hancock’s loved ones were victims of the Black Death, the deadly plague that intermittently reared its head in Europe between the 13th and 17th Centuries, killing an estimated 150 million people. The epidemic of 1664 to 1666 was particularly notorious, and the last major outbreak of the disease in England. Some 100,000 people, one quarter of the city’s population, died in London alone. Amid the devastation, the sleepy Peak District village of Eyam, home to Hancock and her family, became the site of one of the most heroic acts of self-sacrifice in British history – and one of the main reasons the plague’s march was halted. Today, in Eyam, located 35 miles southeast of Manchester, all seems well in the world. You can still visit the boundary stones today.
Poverty and the Poor Laws Use this guide for advice on how to locate Poor Law records at The National Archives, as well as documents in which issues of and connected to poverty are discussed more broadly. The records refer mainly to poverty in England and Wales in the 19th century. 2. The birth of Poor Law Unions in 1834 After 1834 parishes were grouped into Poor Law Unions (new local government units) and these unions reported to the newly created Poor Law Commission, later the Poor Law Board, and later again, the Poor Law Department of the Local Government Board, all based in London. Each Poor Law Union was run by a board of guardians elected by ratepayers from their constituent parishes. The records of the Poor Law Commission, Poor Law Board and Local Government Board are in The National Archives, in the MH (Ministry of Health) department. 3. Most records concerning the operation of the Poor Laws before 1834 are held by local archives, not The National Archives. Key records include: Useful books include: 4. 5. 6.

Luthers judehat inget att fira Vi förfasar oss över det oförsonliga hat och besinningslösa våld som IS utövar mot alla dem de betecknar som otrogna muslimer och andra religiöst oliktänkande. Det sker i islams namn. De flesta andra muslimer menar att det är en förvriden tolkning av deras religion och tar avstånd från detta konkreta tolkningsalternativ. En följdfråga är vilka tankar och handlingar en religiös tradition kan rymma och fortfarande hållas för en legitim uttolkning, och när dessa tankar och handlingar spränger gränserna för det acceptabla. Med den aktuella frågan i bakhuvudet bör vi kritiskt granska den religiösa tradition vi svenskar själva är en del av, antingen aktivt i nuet eller indirekt genom samhällets historia. Det är läge att göra det nu när blickarna är riktade framåt mot 2017, då femhundraårsminnet av Martin Luthers spikande av de 95 teserna på kyrkporten i Wittenberg ska uppmärksammas. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

introduction | European Animation Art animation can be found anywhere in the world, but in Europe it used to be more of a rule than exception. Animation has rarely been used as a commercial entertainment like in the US, although the amount of computer generated 3D pictures has increased nowadays. With that, a major part of signature style is gone. Hardly anyone can create individual pieces of art with this trending vehicle. European Animation is more uncompromising. The film is as long as it needs to be. In the US, European animation is generally considered too dark and bold. Traditional animation from (especially Eastern) Europe is usually made of very natural ingredients, there’s a lot of national romantics, painting inspired, folklore based, art nouveu -like, puppet theatre derived illustrations. One must respect the variety of styles. One of the most essential sources of inspiration is arguably Jiří Trnka’s illustrations from 1939 onwards. “Usually, animated films were shown in front of feature films in Prague.
INDUSTRIAL REVOLUTION SEE ALSO, Europe Transformed Author: Lewis Hackett Date: 1992 Industrialization: The First Phase Most products people in the industrialized nations use today are turned out swiftly by the process of mass production, by people (and sometimes, robots) working on assembly lines using power-driven machines. People of ancient and medieval times had no such products. They had to spend long, tedious hours of hand labor even on simple objects. About the time of the American Revolution, the people of England began to use machines to make cloth and steam engines to run the machines. Changes That Led to the Revolution The most important of the changes that brought about the Industrial Revolution were (1) the invention of machines to do the work of hand tools; (2) the use of steam, and later of other kinds of power, in place of the muscles of human beings and of animals; and (3) the adoption of the factory system. The Industrial Revolution came gradually. Expanding Commerce Affects Industry
A Brief History Of Animated Cinema In France Still from Fantasmagorie (1908) │© Breve Storia del Cinema October is the month for animated film in France. The Fête du cinéma d’animation rolls into 200 venues in 100 towns across the country for 500 events that culminate with International Animation Day, the anniversary of Émile Reynaud’s first public animated projection at the Musée Grevin in Paris on October 28, 1892. Sign Up. Read the Culture Trip newsletter. On that momentous day at the tail end of the 19th century, Reynaud, a science teacher, showed three of his cinematic creations, each 16 frames long and composed of 500 to 600 individually painted pictures. However, the first true animated cartoon – one with a genuine, if fantastical, plot – came with Émile Cohl’s Fantasmagorie, which premiered at the Théâtre du Gymnase in Paris on August 17, 1908. The most famous film from this period is undoubtedly Grimault’s La Bergère et le Ramoneur (The Shepherdess and the Chimney-sweep).
