David Martyn Lloyd-Jones 1899-1981 and twentieth-century evangelicalism.
No full textThe purpose of this thesis was to demonstrate the significance of the life and ministry of David Martyn Lloyd-Jones in post-war British evangelicalism and to show that, so far as Protestant churches in England and Wales were concerned, no history of the period can afford to ignore him. It is our contention that despite differences of opinion and self- marginalization Lloyd-Jones was and has remained a major force in evangelical thinking. In order to understand how this developed the thesis has been structured along thematic lines highlighting events, persons and questions. The study begins by setting the stage with a biographical chapter and goes on to examine the kind of impact that Lloyd-Jones's preaching had on Christians of all denominations. He believed preaching to be the greatest need of the day and the position of this thesis is that preaching was Lloyd-Jones's greatest contribution to twentieth- century Christianity. As a preacher he attracted one of London's largest congregations and in chapter three we look at the history and nature of Westminster Chapel comparing it with neighbouring ministries, and establishing the kind of people who went to hear him. Chapters four and five ascertain the factors which shaped Lloyd-Jones's views on the church and show how his Reformed evangelicalism led in a separatist as opposed to an ecumenical direction and finally, to a position which was neither Congregational nor Presbyterian. Our further argument is that while he favoured unity among believers his separatist ecclesiology only exacerbated the situation and left evangelicals more divided than before. Chapters six to eight evaluate Lloyd-Jones's background, the nature of his leadership and the extent of his influence - factors which either shaped or were the outcome of his ministry - and looks at the issues which these questions raise

(Italy; Hutsell et al. 2001). Specimens (n = 58) from Giglio Island: 8.1–47.5 mm (mean: 29.6 ± 0.8 mm) height; 7.8–47.1 mm (mean: 29.4 ± 0.7 mm) width. Ratio [h/w] = 1.01 ± 0.005. Aperture approximately 79 % of shell height. General shape: Globose, large bodywhorl, relatively thin-shelled for its size, with 4.5 convex, slightly tabulated whorls and adpressed sutures [teleoconch: 3.5]. Sculpture: Minute barely visible axial growth striae, stronger and easy visible below suture. Shell color: White, cream or yellowish background with dense irregularly arrranged, blurred, brownish dots that have a tendency to coalesce into larger blotches and bands. Protoconch: Uncolored, one embryonal whorl. Aperture & outer lip: Aperture half moon-shaped, oblique, angled anteriorly, rounded at the bottom, fairly thick basal callus; external lip simple, sharp. Fairly thick parietal callus, covering 1 / 4 to 1 / 3 of inner lip. Umbilical area: Wide open, brownish, with well-defined strong, U-shaped, funicle with growth marks, positioned slightly below middle of the umbilical area; funicular callus not enlarged, inner lip without callus. Operculum: Calcareous with numerous narrow, sharply-raised ribs; ribs sometimes mushroom-shaped, with base more narrow than top. Number of ribs varies considerably, independently of body size, from below 10 to> 25, innermost ribs sometimes fused to form flat areas. Animal: Mesopodium and propodium surround shell to same width during crawling; irregularly arrranged, blurred, brownish dots and bands distributed over the entire foot; tentacles colored dark; animal unable to cover entire shell with mesopodium; only lower fringe of shell covered. Egg mass: Flexible, inwardly cambered, paucispiral coiled band of mucus-cemented sand grains (Figs. 3, 11 G/g), 1.25 circles; outer diameter 7.5 mm (n = 1). Differential diagnosis: Irregular brownish dots, strong funicle, operculum with numerous sharp ribs, and large size easily distinguish the species from all other Mediterranean naticids except for N. stercusmuscarum. For differences to N. stercusmuscarum, see under that species. Geographical distribution Giglio Island: Campese Bay (1),´ Swiss House ´(9), Pt. del Faraglione (2), Pt. delle Secche (3) Alf et al. (1993):´Found singularly at the beach after storm at Bay of Campese, Giglio Island.´General distribution: Contrary to several publications (Hidalgo 1917, Schirò 1977), this species is probably strictly Mediterranean, ubiquitous and common from the Strait of Gibraltar to the Aegean Sea (Demir 2002).Published as part of Huelsken, Thomas, Marek, Carina, Schreiber, Stefan, Schmidt, Iris & Mann, Michael Holl-, 2008, The Naticidae (Mollusca: Gastropoda) of Giglio Island (Tuscany, Italy): Shell characters, live animals, and a molecular analysis of egg masses, pp. 1-40 in Zootaxa 1770 on pages 18-19, DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.18211
Martyn Brewster: prints 1975-2007
No full textThis co-authored book offers the first systematic account of the silkscreen monoprints of Martyn Brewster, focusing on his prolific output in the period 1975–2007. The book locates printmaking as an essential feature of Brewster’s creative output, which is more commonly characterised from a different angle through his formidable international reputation for painting in oils and acrylics. The book develops my ongoing project of inquiry into, and dialogues with, Brewster's work – a project which has included: contributions to exhibition catalogues, most notably those of the Jill George Gallery in London; catalogues for stands at international art fairs, especially in the USA; forewords to touring exhibition catalogues such as Colour and Form (Walford Mill Crafts, 2010); and the publication of what has become the standard work on the artist, my monograph Martyn Brewster (Scholar Press, 1997).
The current book was commissioned by Canterton Books, a publisher which specialises in works on contemporary visual artists based in the South West of England. I wrote one of two extended essays on Brewster's work. 'The Endless Line' is a survey of the artist's print oeuvre, an analysis of the context of his work and its influences, and a study of the relationship between his extensive print output and his acrylic and oil paintings. The essay also describes his particular contribution to the form of the artist's book.
I worked with my co-author to select and edit the full catalogue of supporting images of prints from across Brewster's career. The book has been used to support the artist's national and international gallery network, and since its publication in 2008 has accompanied a series of exhibitions in London galleries and international art fairs, including Chicago and San Francisco
Restoration of the Martyn brothers house as a bright example of the work of the architect N.M. Socolow
No full textThe paper discusses the history of the Martyn Brothers House, as well as the practice of restoring this object of cultural heritage of federal significance. The author of the mansion is Nikolai Matveevich Sokolov (1859-1906), the city architect of the late XIX - early XX centuries in Rostov-on-Don. To characterize the measures for the protection and modern practice of restoration of one of the brightest examples of N. M. Sokolov’s creativity – the Martyn Brothers House in Rostov-on-Don. The main method of research was historical analysis - the study of the origin, formation and development of objects in chronological order, as well as archival and full-scale surveys of the object, photo fixation. The characteristic of practice of restoration of works of “brick style” using Martyn Brothers House as a bright example of the work of the architect N.M. Sokolov was given. The mansion is of scientific and practical interest. During the research, the main techniques and methods used in restoration practice that can be used by modern restorers were identified. After the completion of restoration work on the site of the Martyn Brothers House, the original historical and architectural appearance of the magnificent monument of the late XIX century was restored, taking into account all the lost parts of the building
