Else, clean and tidy. Good+ From the library of Doreen and Walter Newlyn. The British economist and educator, Walter Newlyn (1915-2002), was known for his work on monetary theory and with African nations. From 1967 (until his retirement in 1978) he was Professor of Developmental Economics at the University of Leeds (UoL) and in 1964 founded its African Studies Unit, now LUCAS. Both Doreen and Walter were passionate about theatre; in the late 1950s they set up the Uganda Pilgrim Players, the country's first multi-racial theatre group. Back in the UK, Doreen was key to the foundation of the Leeds Playhouse in 1968. The collection features two poems by Storm Jameson: 'Silchester' and 'Cloud Form'. A generation younger than Jameson (who graduated from UoL in 1912), both Doreen (who was a Social Studies Lecturer at UoL from 1948 to 1952) and Walter (who was, by 1948, an Assistant Lecturer) did overlap with her husband Guy Chapman's tenure as Professor of Modern History from 1945 to 1953.

Añadir al carritoHardback. Condición: Very Good. FIRST EDITION, SIGNED AND INSCRIBED BY AUTHOR. 8vo. Green cloth, spine lettered in silver. Rubbed at extremities and joints, some scoring, bottom corner of bottom board bumped. Toned edges, a few spots to leading edge. Affectionately inscribed by Wilson Knight in blue biro to half-title: "For/ Dor…een/ & Walter/ in memory of so many productions/ from Wilson/ Leeds, 22 June 1962" and then signed in blue biro to title page: "G. Wilson Knight". Else, clean and tidy. An interesting association copy inscribed in the year of publication (and his retirement from the University of Leeds). The literary interpreter (his own term) and Shakespearean, George "Dick" Wilson Knight, CBE (1897-1985) held a Chair in English Literature at the University of Leeds (UoL) from 1956 until his retirement in 1962. A charismatic lecturer and influential, if idiosyncratic, critic, Wilson Knight was also an actor and theatre director: "G. Wilson Knight combines with his prophetic fervour a well-seasoned practical dedication to the theatre, as an actor of heroic force, as a reader of dramatic verse of bardic vitality, and as one of the most enterprising directors of poetic drama in the modern semi-professional theatre." (Kaufmann, 1963). He was a member of the Psychic Research Society in Leeds and a vice-president of the Spiritualist Association of Great Britain, having become interested in spiritualism after his mother's death in 1950. The Golden Labyrinth was based on his UoL lecture course on British drama (ODNB). Doreen Newlyn was a Social Studies Lecturer at the University of Leeds (1948-52) and a member of its Staff Dramatic Society, alongside Wilson Knight. With her husband, the economist and Africanist Walter Newlyn, she set up the Uganda Pilgrim Players in the late 1950s, the country's first multi-racial theatre group. Back in the UK, Newlyn was key to the foundation of the Leeds Playhouse in 1968.
