Janet Arnold Showcase: Textile Culture, Social Fabric, and the Unravelling of Material History
This one-day conference organised by Dr Linda Grant FSA and Dr Anouska Lester explores different ways of approaching the cultural and historical contexts of textiles, dress, and fashion, spanning different regions and time periods. This event will showcase recent research that bridges both theory and practice, exploring a range of textiles from the infamous ‘Greensleeves’ of sixteenth-century England to current revivals of nineteenth-century traditions in the Philippines.
Speakers include: Professor Mina Roces (University of New South Wales), Professor Matthew McCormack (University of Northampton), Dr Meg Kobza (University of Newcastle), Dr Kathy Haslam FSA (Kelmscott Manor), Tamsin Lewis (Passamezzo), and Ann French (Whitworth Art Gallery, University of Manchester).
There will be an opportunity to view textiles, manuscripts, and prints from our library, archive and museum collections, including a rarely seen section of the pall thought to have been used at Prince Arthur's funeral in 1502.
Janet Arnold (1932-98) was a dress historian, costume designer, and teacher, best known for her Patterns of Fashion series. Arnold was a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries and each year we award grants to further original research into the history of dress and the materials from which it is made.
This lecture was sponsored and hosted by the Society of Antiquaries of London in its apartments at Burlington House, Piccadilly, London.

    A splendid lecture. It will be interesting to see in the years to come how the relationship between indigenous emblems and heraldry in the Canadian context further develops. By the same token, I am saddened with the passing of Dr. Boudreau late last year. The Canadian Heraldic Authority is in good hands, but her leadership will be sorely missed as she leaves great shoes to fill. Her legacy of great contributions to heraldry here in our context and more broadly will hopefully long endure and stand as a testament to her great contributions as a Canadian, as a herald, and as a scholar.

    Kudos for webcasting your talks and getting them online so quickly. Interesting talk, but not on the advertised topic. In fact, 20 seconds in, the speaker says they're not going to talk about the advertised topic. It's more about experimenting with various gunpowder mixtures and methods of propelling projectiles. Too bad if you travelled in from outside London on a £30 train ticket to hear a history of early gunpowder. Hopefully future speakers stick to the advertised topics. Or just change the advertised topic to what the speaker actually wants to talk about, to avoid false misrepresentation and audience attendees being disappointed.
