Regional history in Britain enjoyed its heyday between the late 1970s and late1990s but now looks increasingly threadbare when contrasted with the work of regional geographers. Like geographers, in earlier times regional historians busied themselves with two activities. First, they set out to describe social processes and structures at a regional level. The region, it was claimed, was the most convenient container for studying ‘patterns of historical development across large tracts of the English countryside’ and understanding the interconnections between social, economic, political, demographic and administrative history, enabling the researcher to transcend both the hyper-specialization of ‘national’ historical studies and the parochial and inward-looking gaze of English local history. Second, and occurring in parallel, was a search for the best boundaries within which to pursue this multi-disciplinary quest. Although he explicitly rejected the concept of region on the grounds that it was impossible comprehensively to define the term, in many ways the work of Charles Phythian-Adams was the culmination of this process of categorization. Phythian-Adams proposed a series of cultural provinces, supra-county entities based on watersheds and river basins, as broad containers for human activity in the early modern period. Within these, ‘local societies’ linked together communities or localities via networks of kinship and lineage. 3","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125984423","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While working at the 1940 edition of the Fair, Ginno created some 75 etchings depicting men, women, and children of various cultures in traditional dress. Ginno's training in the arts and early theatrical costuming experience provided her with the background necessary to create these objects. She combined the documentation and communication aspects of costume illustration with the artistry and commercial appeal of etching. During the 1940 Exposition, Ginno utilized the exposure to foreign cultures to document traditional dress. Seemingly, these were merely depictions of 'foreign visitors', but as historian Elizabeth Ann Coleman has noted' As in all human endeavors, the truth is always slightly bent to favor someone.' 1 Though these etchings represent 'timeless' costumes steeped in regional history and traditions, they have actually captured a very distinct moment in time. They reveal a growing concern, held by Ginno and the Bay Area at large, over the presumed loss of traditional European cultures due to Hitler's growing occupation of Western Europe. More significant than accuracy, quality or technical skill these works primarily function as a link to a lost era and provide a record of the Bay Area's public memory just prior to the U.S. involvement in World War Two. In a more general sense, this private collection of etchings allows historians to glean a better picture of the life and concerns of Bay Area residents, which in this case, seem to focus on current events, race and politics.","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129548765","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Meadow Lane, the home of Notts County Football Club echoed to the chilling cries of 'twenty years and you're still a scab' and other chants displaying similar sentiments, sung by Barnsley fans to their Nottinghamshire rivals. Just five weeks away from the twentieth anniversary of the beginning of the year long national Miners' Strike of 1984-85, it was painfully clear at this match that the wounds that had been reopened twenty years earlier; and that initially occurred during an earlier miners' strike in 1926, between striking and non-striking miners and their respective communities were far from healed. Drawing primarily on data collected at the match as part of a wider study examining the role of football chants in the continuity of the blason populaire tradition. The playing out of the hostilities of the Miners' Strike through football chants will be explored, together with how such chants act as powerful vocal weapons against rival fans. Their content relies on an event which continues to produce highly emotive responses many years after the event. The opinions of Barnsley fans regarding the appropriateness of such chants will also be examined, using data collected from several discussions on an unofficial Barnsley FC internet chatroom in the days following the match.","PeriodicalId":299529,"journal":{"name":"The International Journal of Regional and Local Studies","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2007-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129409612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
