Issue No. 4 Summer 2002 Other issues of the Newsletter Main Library Home Page CONTENTS WELCOME UNLOCKING THE RYLANDS The Role of Exhibitions and Public Programmes in Plans for the Future NEWS IN BRIEF ... EXHIBITION PROGRAMME 2002 WELCOME As you can see from the contents of this edition of News from the Rylands , we have been busy in the first half of 2002 with exhibitions celebrating Manchester’s involvement in the Commonwealth Games, with events focusing on the rich Jewish holdings of the Library and with preparations for the celebration of the tercentenary of the birth of John Wesley which will take place next year. The second half of 2002 promises to be as eventful. In September, Chris Hunt, who has been Director of the John Rylands University Library of Manchester and University Librarian for eleven years, retires. Since his appointment in 1991 he has guided the JRULM through many changes including those associated with the introduction of electronic library services. He had the unenviable responsibility for the rewiring of the Deansgate Building, which has enabled Special Collections to benefit from computer technology. He also initiated the conversion of the Special Collections printed book catalogues into electronic records. I take this opportunity to congratulate him on all his varied achievements and wish him well for the future.

New Criterion February, 2004 by Stove, Judy Content provided in partnership with Read the full article with a Free Trial of HighBeam Research George Orwell, who was born in 1903, the year of George Gissing's death, noted that most of Gissing's works were already, by the 1940s, out of print and virtually unobtainable. He admired Gissing's writing greatly. Orwell had read only a few of the novels, but "merely on the strength of New Grub Street, Demos, and The Odd Women I am ready to maintain that England has produced very few better novelists." Yet George Gissing (1857-1903) is unknown to many, perhaps most, of the reading public. Many people have read at least one Thomas Hardy novel, Far from the Madding ...

Gissing had hardly unpacked when, on 2 November, he jotted down his first impressions of Naples:

Books : By the Ionian Sea George Gissing Introduction and Notes by Pierre Coustillas "The names of Greece and Italy draw me as no others; they make me young again. The world of the Greeks and Romans is my land of romance." In 1897 the Victorian novelist George Gissing undertook a brief but eventful journey in southern Italy. His itinerary took him from Naples to Reggio di Calabria, via Paola, Cosenza, Crotone and Squillace, through the area once known as Magna Graecia. Meditating on the vestiges of Greco-Roman civilization, Gissing visited tombs and temples, museums and cathedrals, in search of the imprint of antiquity and "that old world which was the imaginative delight of my boyhood." The result was By the Ionian Sea, first published in 1901. Gissing's journey by boat, train, and carriage revealed not just the ruined glories of a classical past, but also the hardships of rural life in turn-of-the-century rural Italy. Meeting poverty-stricken peasants and corrupt local officials, he endured discomfort, danger and illness in a remote and little visited corner of Europe. Yet throughout he appreciated the warmth and generosity shown to him by local people, curious about this solitary stranger. By turns lyrical and melancholic, Gissing's masterpiece of travel writing alternates between light and dark, life and death, Paganism and Christianity. Looking at Italy in both its classical and contemporary dimensions, By the Ionian Sea celebrates Calabria's rich cultural past and beautiful landscapes while providing a candid account of the region's hardship and poverty. More than a century after its first publication, this is the first critical edition of the book in English.
