The question asked here is who creates the built environment, and for whom; the answer is provided through a focus on the work of Matrix, a pioneering architectural co-operative founded in 1981. In their 13 years of operation, the group worked solely on state-funded, social building projects, typically with women and children’s groups as clientele. Feminist design collective Edit created the physical structures of the exhibit to reflect Matrix’s concern with the informal use of space. Architectural drawings and photographs chronicling Matrix’s work are fastened to plywood frames, alluding to a construction site. Curtains made by Cawley Studio hang from a metal rail snaking through the exhibit to subdivide the space (Figure 1). Parting them to enter, the viewer is transported back to 1980s England. Panels display adverts for cars and household consumables with copy and images demeaning women, bizarrely irrelevant to the product advertised. Heather Powell’s film Paradise Circus (1988) plays on a large television, cataloguing the hostility of Birmingham’s built environment: its thoughtlessly designed housing, unsafe and creepy tunnel network, and labyrinthine road layout that prioritised motorists and polluted the air. The film examines the government’s decades of post-war slum clearances and replacement Garden City neighbourhoods. These suburban prototypes were planned and designed by men who failed to properly consider the needs of anyone unlike them. The house was not viewed as a place of work, and accommodation for people moving through the city with disabilities, or children, or without cars, was nearly non-existent. This scene-setting brings Matrix’s radical approach, and the wave of feminism of which it was a part, into full relief. Juxtaposed to these lazy, sexist banalities is Matrix’s manifesto, a single sheet of unadorned paper which sets out:","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":"47 1","pages":"223 - 227"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-11-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41992120","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These processions took place on the accession day of Elizabeth I. They reportedly attracted as many as two hundred thousand spectators. This article reads these processions through the lens of civic ceremony, taking the performance of civic identity on the streets of London as the foundation of the threatening power of these cultural events. It demonstrates the significance of the trajectory of the march to Temple Bar, marking London’s boundary with Westminster and the court. This article also analyses the satiric broadside engravings that bolster the credibility of the processions’ central claim: that Englishness and Protestantism were inseparable and united against the foreign threat of Catholicism. With a variety of contemporary witnesses, this article challenges the claims that Protestantism had a united front at the time or that the purported statue of Elizabeth at Temple Bar was even a likeness of her. Working with the vocabulary of civic ceremony, the ‘Solemn Mock Processions’ of the Pope revive an old prejudice to coerce a unified national identity based on the exclusion of religious others.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":"47 1","pages":"103 - 126"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47006203","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These nautical performances are a unique and important form of civic theatricality that offered Londoners an alternative means of visualizing the kinds of nautical combat they would have encountered in stage plays and news pamphlets. My analysis of printed accounts and eye-witness reports of these mock sea-fights explicates their complex negotiation of artifice and feigning on the one hand and realism on the other, whereby the grim realities of naval combat manifested themselves in the process of performance. The article likewise considers how this unique form of entertainment was presented to book-buyers and readers in pamphlets that feature paratextual woodcut illustrations of ships, which align the publications with other genres of ‘maritime’ print. Ultimately, what follows demonstrates the rich contributions that the mock sea-fight as a form of riverine theatricality can make to our understanding of performance culture in Jacobean London.","PeriodicalId":43904,"journal":{"name":"London Journal","volume":"47 1","pages":"13 - 35"},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2021-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47510258","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
