Yorkshire: A Literary Landscape

A gorgeous anthology to dip into and savour the rich literary heritage of Yorkshire, Britain⠙s largest county. Yorkshire is renowned for its landscapes: the magical wilderness of the moors and the dales, its cities built on industry and mining, and its varied coastline.All these places, as well as its people, have been portrayed and dramatized in literature through the centuries; by poets from Andrew Marvell to Simon Armitage, by novelists such as Dickens, Elizabeth Gaskell, Bram Stoker, and of course the Brontës, all of whom are represented here. Then there are novelists such as David Storey and Barry Hines, who wrote about working-class lives in the mining towns in the 1950s and 60s. And finally some favourite characters to enjoy, such as James Herriot and the Yorkshire Shepherdess.Yorkshire: A Literary Landscape is edited by David Stuart Davies.

The Pocket Yorkshire English

The dialects of English still spoken in Yorkshire, known collectively as Broad Yorkshire, Tyke or Yorkie, are both colorful and instantly recognizable. This handy beginner’s guide to ‘how to speak Yorkshire’ will have you giving Sean Bean or Jodie Whittaker a run for their money in no time.First, you have to drop your Hs, from ‘has’ and ‘her’ for example – ‘as and ‘er. Then, the Ts need to go, from ‘that’ and ‘cat’ for example, to be replaced with a slight H sound, the so-called glottal stop – tha’ and ca’ – while ‘the’ becomes simply t’. A famous example (which no one ever actually says) is ‘t’in’t in’t tin, meaning ‘it isn’t in the tin’. In a similar way ‘with’ becomes ‘wi’. Accents may differ throughout the Dales, but Ts and Hs are dropped throughout Yorkshire.And don’t bother with the G in any -ing ending. Gs at the end of words count for nothin’. The ‘ay’ sound in a word, like ‘day’, becomes ‘ee’, as do some i sounds – ‘right’, for example, becomes ‘reet’. So, in Yorkshire, you might say, ‘I’m ‘avin’ a reet grand dee!’Never say ‘our’; you say ‘us’ – Wot’s f’r us tea, Mutha? Yorkshire’s a friendly place – anyone you meet could be ‘love’, ‘pal’ or ‘fella’. And do speak to everyone – you’re not in London! So, don’t be taken aback if someone hails you with ‘Mornin’, pet, reet grand day, i’n’it?’The roots of Yorkshire’s dialects can be traced back to the mixing of Anglo-Saxon speakers with Scandivanian settlers from the eighth to the eleventh centuries. In order to understand each other, they dropped gender, word endings and complex conjugations from their languages. The resulting simplified Anglo-Saxon/Middle English lingua franca spread throughout England, more rapidly following the Norman Conquest. Yorkshire is the birthplace of what is now the international language of modern English.Along the way, the dialects have featured in the work of the Brontës, who were born and lived in Yorkshire, famously in Emily Brontë’s Wuthering Heights, also in Charles Dickens’ Nicholas Nickleby, among other classic works.Gemini PocketsFrom little guides to soothe your soul to all-access passes to the lives of pop icons, and from quizzes and puzzles for literature lovers to books on food, nature, fashion and more, Gemini Pockets are the perfect fit for your life and interests.

Yorkshire Villages - Dave Zdanowicz, Paul Zdanowicz

Yorkshire is a county of enormous contrasts. Outside its large urban centres, its villages represent a way of life that often feels unchanging. The villages are part of the landscape, whether remote upland, agricultural, coastal or even industrial, and the buildings in them reflect the local materials and the evolving working life of the villages. The National Parks of the North York Moors and the Yorkshire Dales are justly famous, as is the extensive North Sea coastline, but there is much more to Yorkshire than this, from the East Riding which historically grew rich on the wool trade, the Humber Estuary, the wealthy monastic houses of the Middle Ages, later stately homes, to the mining villages of South Yorkshire, the textile industry in West Yorkshire and remote Pennine settlements.In Yorkshire Villages, Dave Zdanowicz and Paul Zdanowicz take a fresh look at this beautiful county through its huge variety of villages. For those who live in Yorkshire and its many thousands of visitors, this book is a must. Look through these photographs and you will quickly see why this charming county has such enduring appeal.

111 Places in Yorkshire That You Shouldn

They call Yorkshire God⠙s own country. This is because England⠙s biggest county is also England⠙s most epic and most historically exciting. It has everything: unimaginably beautiful countryside, derelict castles, cliff-hugging coastlines, brutally bleak moors, quirkily quaint villages, wondrously winding waterways and industrial monsters of cities. Many of the most interesting episodes in English history have happened here: the Wars of the Roses, the English Civil War, the birth of the industrial revolution, the rise of the Labour movement. But when people think of Yorkshire they also think of the unusual and the unsung: Bettys delightful tea rooms, cricket at Scarborough, the windswept steps of Whitby Abbey, the steam railway of the Railway Children, Mother Shipton⠙s Cave, and racing at Doncaster and York.Yorkshire has also given birth to some of the greatest and most talented figures in English history: Brian Clough, Harold Wilson, John Wycliffe, William Wilberforce, the Brontë Sisters, David Hockney and Barbara Hepworth.

Landscape Architecture - Julian Thompson

Landscape architecture plays an important role in shaping the places in which we live and work. But what is it? Landscape architects are involved, amongst other things, in the layout of business parks, the reclamation of derelict industrial sites, the restoration of historic city parks, and the siting and design of major pieces of infrastructure such as motorways, dams, power stations, and flood defences, as well as the planning of parks and gardens. Taking a historical perspective, Ian Thompson looks at both the roots of landscape architecture and the people that established it. This Very Short Introduction explores some of the misconceptions about landscape architecture and considers the discipline s origins in landscape gardening. Thompson takes a look at a number of areas, including the influence of Modernism, the difference between landscape design and landscape planning, and the way that planning legislation has driven the growth of the discipline. He also explores contemporary environmentalism, the debate as to whether landscape architecture is an art or a science, landscape architecture in the community, post-industrial projects, and its relationship with ecological urbanism.ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

A Yorkshire Sketchbook - David Hockney

In recent years David Hockney has returned to England to paint the landscape of his childhood. East Yorkshire s stern hillscapes, craggy drystone walls and endless windswept moors make for a stimulating muse, and Hockney s work captures the character of this scenery with expert precision.Although his passionate interest in new technologies has led Hockney to develop a virtuoso drawing technique on an iPad, he is still regularly accompanied by a trusty sketchbook. This invaluable tool allows him to work quickly, capturing the changing light and the fleeting effects of the weather. Executed in watercolour and ink, these panoramic scenes have the spatial complexity of finished paintings: the broad sweep of sky or road, the patchwork tapestry of land. Yet unlike a painting completed in the studio, far-removed from the landscape that inspired it, these sketches convey the immediacy of Hockney s impressions. And as indicated by views down village streets and across kitchen tables, his rooted local knowledge and fondness for the area around the East Yorkshire Wolds always shines through. If you know the region, the location of these sketches is unmistakable. If you don t, its features will come to life in these pages, animated by Hockney s incomparable skill.

The Landscape - Don McCullin

The veteran war photographer [Don McCullin] has turned his lens to more peaceful scenes... for his latest book, The Landscape. The images carry a dramatic feel and a preference for stormy skies that reveal an intimacy with conflict and destruction. Guardian After a career spanning sixty years, Sir Don McCullin, once a witness to conflict across the globe, has become one of the great landscape photographers of our time. McCullinâ ™s pastoral view is far from idyllic. Though the woods and stream close to his house in Somerset have offered some respite, he has not sought out the quiet corners of rural England. He is drawn, instead, to the drama of approaching storms. He has an acute sense of how the emptiness of his immediate landscape echoes a wider tone of disquiet.McCullin is based in the geographical centre of southern England. The presence of sacred mounds, hill forts, ancient roads and the nearby monuments of the prehistoric era have shaped his sense of nationhood. But down on the Somerset Levels, he has tramped through the flooded lowlands. The imagery of his home county, ravaged by storms, inevitably projects the associations of a battlefield, or, at least, the views of one intimate with scenes of war.He is not alone in his preference for darkened clouds over clear skies. McCullinâ ™s West Country is not far removed from the East Anglia of Constableâ ™s Dedham Vale two centuries earlier. His knowledge of his historical predecessors places him deep in a Romantic tradition. His experience as a traveller reinforces the sense of a man on the edge of civilisation under siege. Nowhere is this more apparent than in his repeated views of the glories of Palmyra and of the destruction of this ancient Syrian city. The Landscape is the last in a long series of books published by Jonathan Cape, which encompasses the entirety of McCullinâ ™s working life.
