SUMMARY:Surrey Network Study Day - The Development of British Style - Paul Atterbury
DESCRIPTION:“THE DEVELOPMENT OF BRITISH STYLE +DESERT ISLAND ANTIQUES + LIFE ON THE ANTIQUES ROADSHOW” by Paul Atterbury \nFrom the 1870s the British domestic house and its contents changed almost beyond recognition\, reflecting the social and economic revolution that paved the way for the modern world of today. Many factors contributed to this change\, from William Morris and the Arts and Crafts Movement\, to the rise of the department store\, suburban living\, the garden and the emancipation of women. After the First World War\, the pace of change increased\, prompting rapid stylistic development\, from 1920s and 1930s Art Deco to the modernism of the 1950s and 1960s and the style wars of the late 20th century. The first two talks consider architecture\, interior and domestic design and the products that reflected the fashions of the time. In the process they show how the last 150 years have determined the way we live now. \nPaul Atterbury has been involved all his life in the world of art and antiques\, as a writer\, historian\, collector and exhibition curator. The two talks in the afternoon offer an insight into his life\, his enthusiasms and his time as a member of the BBC’s Antiques Roadshow team of experts. \n\n\nProgramme9.30 Registration10.00 The Arts and Crafts House and Garden11.00 Coffee / Tea11.30 At Home in the 20th Century12.30 Lunch – Bring-Your-Own – Tea / Coffee available1.30 Paul Atterbury’s Desert Island Antiques2.30 Tea / Coffee3.00 Life on the Antiques Roadshow4.00 Departure \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeaker – Paul Atterbury is a writer\, lecturer\, historian\, curator and broadcaster specialising in the art\, architecture\, design and social history of the 19th and 20th centuries.

SUMMARY:Surrey Network Study Day - Tutankhamun\, The Boy King - Clive Barham Carter
DESCRIPTION:“The Most Famous Pharaoh of Them All: Tutankhamun\, The Boy King” by Clive Barham Carter \nTutankhamen was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who was the last of his royal family to rule during the end of the 18th dynasty; he ruled c. 1334 – 1325 BC in the conventional chronology during the New Kingdom of Egyptian history. His father was the heretical king Akhenaten and his mother was his father’s sister\, identified through DNA testing. The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter of Tutankhamun’s nearly intact tomb\, funded by Lord Carnarvon\, received worldwide press coverage. With over 5000 artefacts\, it sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt\, for which Tutankhamun’s mask\, now in the Egyptian Museum\, remains a popular symbol. \n\n\nProgramme9.30 Registration10.00 The Valley of the Kings – the Where11.00 Coffee / Tea11.30 Carter and Carnarvon – the Who12.30 Lunch – Bring-Your-Own – Tea / Coffee available1.30 The Tomb – the What2.30 Tea / Coffee3.00 Tut.Ankh.Amen and Restoration – and the Why4.00 Departure \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nSpeaker: Clive Barham Carter studied Egyptology at Cambridge (as the only undergraduate). He was awarded a scholarship with the Egypt Exploration Society to dig at Saqqara under Professor Walter Emery. Later\, he joined the staff at Charterhouse as a History teacher\, a position he accepted with some trepidation\, having been a pupil there. He managed to maintain his interest in Ancient Egypt by lecturing at the City Literary Institute\, and by sneaking Egypt into his General Studies classes. In retirement\, he has returned to his enthusiasm for Ancient Egypt and now lectures at the Guildford Institute\, and for U3A\, local groups and museums. He is an accredited lecturer with The Arts Society. \n\n\n\nFor full information please see the BOOKING FORM

SUMMARY:Surrey Network Study Day - Geography and Landscapes of SE England - Geoffrey Mead
DESCRIPTION:“Geography and Landscapes of South East England” by Geoffrey Mead \nSouth-East England has\, in a small area\, a rich assemblage of landscapes whose origins lie in the underlying rocks and soils.
