Abstract:

The sale by the Churchill trustees of Sir Winston Churchill's pre-1945 personal papers to Churchill College, Cambridge early in 1995 caused much controversy. Over £12 million, generated by the National Lottery, was used by the National Heritage Memorial Fund to make the purchase, producing the jibe that the Trust's beneficiaries (notably the great man's grandson, Winston Churchill, MP) had won the Lottery without having to buy a ticket. This little drama brought into focus a number of constitutional questions about state papers.

Abstract:

In May 1940, Sir Charles McMoran Wilson (later Lord Moran) was on the instigation of Lord Max Beaverbrook and Brendan Bracken, (both patients, then friends of Wilson) introduced to Winston Churchill. Thereafter, he remained Churchill’s personal physician until Churchill’s death. In his controversial book detailing Winston Churchill’s health, Lord Moran refers briefly to two doctors resident in Monaco, who were involved in the management of Churchill’s declining health from 1949. One was Scottish, Herbert Robert Burnett Gibson and the other Welsh, Dafydd Myrddin Roberts. The military and civilian careers of these doctors are profiled here.

Abstract:

Abstract Although fascinated by France all his life, Churchill was more familiar with the country than with its inhabitants (he mainly knew members of the upper and governing classes). His apprenticeship began early as he learned the language which he liked to speak so much. Both the warrior and the statesman in Churchill admired the military past and the grandeur of Britain's neighbour, but his strategy towards France always combined realpolitik with genuine friendship. This article concentrates on three periods in Churchill's relationship with France: 1911–32, 1933–45 and 1945–55. It concludes that Churchill's ‘finest hour’ won him the lasting admiration of the French people.

Abstract:

Abstract Given Winston Churchill’s influence and achievement as a writer, historian, adventurer, soldier, artist, and politician, his participation in the European integration process is crucial to understanding the entire scope of the project in its origins. Churchill was a fundamental voice promoting the Franco-British Union, a promoter of the European Communities, and an active participant of the Congress of Europe, embryo of the Council of Europe. This article analyzes Churchill’s view of European integration through his political speeches, in particular those delivered in Zurich and in The Hague, his ideas about the League of Nations and the United Nations, his understanding of the British Empire, and the special relations between the UK and the USA. His participation in the process of uniting Europe in its early stages provides us with essential information about the original plans for the creation of a united Europe and understanding the traditional British approach to the EU, including the current position of the conservative government led by Cameron.

Abstract:

The epistolary dialogue between Winston Churchill and his mother, Lady Randolph, is a polyphonic unity, incorporating letters carrying “coded” messages which serve for different functions: communication exchanges, autocommunication and mutual reception while reflecting a bond between both correspondents. The article presents a new approach to the concept of mutual reception between epistolary communicators, based on the conducted research of the epistolary dialogues between the son (Winston Churchill) and his mother. The concept of mutual reception is determined here as an ability to “tune” into an emotional wavelength of the epistolary communicator in order to build mutual communication links for keeping the epistolary dialogue flowing. It is argued that the epistolary text represents an intertextual unity, constituting a part of a communication system – an epistolary dialogue, involving interplay between two individuals and creating their mutual epistolary space with the metalanguage to understand which and to discover means for conveying mutual reception is the objective, pursued in this research. The study of Winston Churchill’s unique style of epistolary writing will contribute to future research on related issues.

Abstract:

Abstract In the Brynmor Jones Library, University of Hull, the draft and two carbon copies of a letter from Mark Sykes to Winston Churchill dated 27 January 1915 are catalogued as DDSY(2)/4/81. The top‐copy of this letter no longer seems to exist; it does not appear in Martin Gilbert's companion volume for Churchill 1914–16 and is not used in his biographical account of those years. It also was not used by Roger Adelson when he wrote his biography of Mark Sykes in 1975. The letter is important in two ways. First, it indicates that Mark Sykes may have had some influence on Churchill's thinking in late January and early February 1915 while he was planning the naval assault on the Dardanelles. Second, this letter from Mark Sykes contains echoes of the concept of a soft ‘underbelly’ of Europe later popularized by Churchill in a speech of 1942.

Abstract:

Divi Britannici (1675) is a major restoration history that deserves to be more widely known. The work’s author, Sir Winston Churchill (1620–1688), is certainly less well-known than his celebrated descendant of the same name. Seldom mentioned in discussions of seventeenth-century historiography, Divi Britannici can be read alongside contemporary histories, including John Milton’s History of Britain (1670). If British historians have generally overlooked Divi Britannici then Churchill’s work did come to the notice of Michel Foucault, who recognized its arguments around conquest, rights and sovereignty as crucial to the development of political thought in the period. In this essay we excavate Churchill’s arguments, sift through the scattered critical legacy, and locate Divi Britannici both within the context of Restoration histories, with their warring interpretations of England and Britain’s past, and within a tradition of British historiography that associates monarchical rule with national stability. What scholars have missed, however, is the propensity of Churchill to align the restored Stuart monarchy with a form of ethnic co-operation between Scotland, Ireland and England, designed to counter the perceived divisions which were exacerbated by the policies of Cromwell and the parliamentarians.

His 1930s campaign for rearmament and opposition to appeasement, his ‘finest hour’ in 1940, and his 1946 ‘Iron Curtain’ speech at Fulton, Missouri, secured for him on both sides of the Atlantic an almost unparalleled relevance in the rhetoric of the following forty years' Cold War. To Western politicians of this period, his career offered pertinent ‘lessons’ – particularly the need to appear resolute in the face or threat of aggression. To this was added the fact that his magnificent command of English made him a rich quarry of quasi-prophetic quotes for an endless succession of political speeches and journalistic articles.

Abstract:

Summary While staying in the White House over Christmas 1941, Churchill developed chest pain on trying to open a window in his bedroom. Sir Charles Wilson, his personal physician, diagnosed a ‘heart attack’ (myocardial infarction). Wilson, for political and personal reasons, decided not to inform his patient of the diagnosis or obtain assistance from US medical colleagues. On Churchill's return to London, Wilson sought a second opinion from Dr John Parkinson who did not support the diagnosis of coronary thrombosis (myocardial infarction) and reassured Churchill accordingly.

Abstract:

AbstractThe highest mountain in North America bears two official names. While most visitors to Denali National Park in Alaska are familiar with the mountain's official name ‘McKinley,’ and with the frequently used Athabaskan name ‘Denali,’ the mountain also has a second official name: Churchill Peaks. This article traces the history and politics of naming Alaska's famous mountain, including the events that led to the addition of Churchill Peaks. Those events began when President Lyndon Johnson was unable to attend Winston Churchill's funeral in January 1965. The resulting controversy surrounding the naming of the great mountain reflects the ambiguous and often troubled relations between the national government and the remote northern periphery of the country.

Abstract:

Over the years, Friedrich Hayek has received a generous response from some members of the British Conservative Party. One immediately thinks of endorsements of his work by Mrs. Thatcher in the 1970s and '80s.Those with longer memories—and teeth—might also recall the controversy around Winston Churchill's first election broadcast in 1945, and the response to it by the Labour leader Clement Attlee, the following evening. Churchill spoke of the dangers of planning, and raised the idea that it would, in the end, require the powers of a Gestapo to put the ideal of a planned society into practice. Attlee criticized these ideas, and Hayek as the source of the theoretical conceptions behind them. This led to a fair bit of attention being paid to Hayek by the press, and to his being described as an economic adviser to Churchill. But Hayek himself has downplayed his direct contacts with Churchill (cf. Hayek 1994, pp. 106–107). Indeed, in Hayek on Hayek (Hayek 1994), Hayek indicates that he met Churchill only once. On that occasion he was struck by Churchill's being the worse for drink and then recovering, to Hayek's surprise, to make a first-rate speech.

Abstract:

Winston Churchill’s participation in the Yalta Conference became one of the most controversial episodes in his long career. However, the most prominent British statesman of the 20th century consistently argued before and after 1945 for summit diplomacy as a key tool for effective alliances and defusing the risk of war. After returning to power in 1951, Churchill had become the first proponent of détente, but as the Cold War intensified found his suggestions for a new summit rejected by both the White House and the Kremlin. There are lessons for today's political leaders from Churchill’s subtle and realistic approach.

Abstract:

This article is based on the discovery of a tape in which the late John Colville, one of Winston Churchill’s most trusted private secretaries, claimed that Churchill had had an affair with Doris, Lady Castlerosse, a society beauty who died of a drug overdose in 1942. It shows that Colville’s claim was a credible one, although it cannot be proven beyond doubt. The article uses Colville’s revelation as the starting point of an investigation into how a network of Churchill’s friends and former colleagues influenced the shaping of his reputation in the years after his retirement and death. Colville himself was one of the key figures in the process, although his actions – not least his revelation of the story of Lady Castlerosse – were sometimes paradoxical. By examining these developments, the article casts new light on the history of the Churchill Archives Centre, Cambridge, of which Colville was the founding father.

Abstract:

The centenary of the end of the First World War allows an opportunity to reflect on the lessons learned from dissent, not only in political life but also in shoulder surgery. It is not commonly known that the young Winston Churchill had an unstable shoulder that was to affect him from his younger days into his later career. Although he chose to treat his shoulder problem conservatively, one of his contemporaries, ASB Bankart proposed a surgical approach that has come to be the ‘gold standard' of management of the unstable shoulder. This paper reviews the historical record of Churchill's shoulder instability and the lessons he learned from his experience.

Abstract:

Las películas El joven Winston (Young Winston, R. Attenborough, 1972) y El instante más oscuro (Darkest Hour, J. Wright, 2017) se estrenan en dos momentos críticos en Europa y el Reino Unido, vinculados a la revolución del 68 en el primer caso, y al declive político y socioeconómico del mundo occidental, en el segundo. Ambos filmes imprimen una representación positiva de Winston Churchill como líder político. En este artículo se pone en relación al personaje y las cualidades concretas que se subrayan de él con la crisis que acontece en el momento del estreno de cada película. Asimismo se vinculan estos biopics con el momento que atraviesa en cada caso el “sueño europeo”: su apogeo y su declive. El análisis concluye que la imagen de Churchill se recorta en cada filme de acuerdo con el patrón de liderazgo más deseado en cada momento histórico.

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the materials of Winston Churchill of the first third of the XX century, dedicated to his participation in asymmetric military conflicts on the periphery of the British colonial empire. First, it allows us to consider the concept of asymmetric conflict in relation to the British army at the turn of the century and after the First World War. Secondly it allows us to analyze methods, forms and ways of waging war in the conditions of unequal power capabilities, which help to get to know the way of the colonial margins, which was formed by the British in the context of ongoing conflicts. The paper traces a clear chronology in accordance with the works of Winston Churchill: the Cuban War of Independence, the uprising of the Pashtun tribes in Malakand, the Mahdist uprising in Sudan, the second Anglo-Boer War, and the Irish War of Independence. Winston Churchill served in the British Army personally, at the same time he served as a war correspondent covering military events from the front line. Only the Irish War of Independence is knocked out of the chain of events. It was an asymmetric military conflict, perceived by W. Churchill from a completely different perspective: through the prism of political experience and from the height of his position of a Minister of Colonies. In the paper we conclude that the colonial era is the basis for the formation of the theoretical component of the asymmetric conflict concept.

Abstract:

In June 1962 at the age of 87 years, Sir Winston Churchill (1874–1965) fell over in his hotel room at the Hotel de Paris in Monte Carlo and sustained a fracture to the neck of his left femur. He was flown back to London and the fracture operated on at The Middlesex Hospital by two eminent orthopaedic surgeons, Mr Phillip Newman (1911–1994), Consultant to the The Middlesex Hospital and The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore, and The Institute of Orthopaedics, London, and Professor Herbert Seddon (1903–1977), Consultant to the The Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital, Stanmore, and Director of The Institute of Orthopaedics under whom Churchill was admitted as a private patient. Churchill’s recovery was complicated by the development of deep vein thrombosis. During his convalescence, Churchill befriended Seddon who recorded his time with him in his private papers. On 21 August, Churchill was discharged to his home at 28 Hyde Park Gate which had been modified during his admission and made a return to public life in November 1962 at a dinner at the dining club he had originally founded, The Other Club.

Abstract:

The English-speaking peoples' is a phrase indelibly associated with Winston Churchill, both as politician and as author. It is often assumed that this concept originated in socially privileged, politically conservative and generally establishment-minded circles and that it achieved its greatest currency in the Churchill-Roosevelt era spanning World War Two. But how much interest had Churchill actually shown in the English-speaking peoples in his early career? This artcile looks for the historical origins of the concept, initially by exploring the databases of some leading British and American newspapers. The significance of the American Civil War, in generating a common language of democratic populism, becomes clear. Likewise the use of Anglo-Saxonist terminology, not least by whiggish historians, is examined, as are concepts like Greater Britain and the term Commonweath as applied to the British Empire. Historians will not be surprised to learn that all these usages changed over time, appealing to different constituencies, and responding to political as well as intellectual influences. Thus the concept of the English-speaking peoples had its own history, long before it became a subject for the pen, and for the tongue, of Winston Churchill.

Abstract:

Abstract This paper examines the relationship of Churchill's War Cabinet, and in particular of the prime minister himself to a simplified version of English devised by C.K. Ogden (1889-1957). “Basic English” was developed by Ogden during the late 1920s, the result of an obsession with language and meaning which dated from his undergraduate days, and which was reinforced by the horrors of the First World War. “Basic” was but one of many attempts to devise a universal language made during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Following some minor successes during the 1930s, the real testing lime for Basic was to come during the Second World War. Churchill seems to have been first attracted by the language's simple utility. He saw it as providing an easily learned medium of communication between the polyglot wartime allies, but he soon began to glimpse its potentially wider benefits for the post imperial era he was reluctantly being forced to enter. Nor was the possibility that Basic might foster a form of intellectual imperialism lost upon the scheme's enemies. While Basic English continues to be promoted and taught, the fall of Churchill's government in the summer of 1945 ensured that his grand design for Basic would never be realized.

Abstract:

The article attempts to solve one of the mysteries of the world literary process of the 20th century. The author explains the reasons for the unusual choice of the Nobel Committee, which presented the outstanding British politician Winston Churchill in 1953 with the prize in literature, preferring him to such recognized masters as Ernest Hemingway, John Steinbeck, Albert Camus, Jean-Paul Sartre, Boris Pasternak, Mikhail Sholokhov, Vladimir Nabokov, Jorge Luis Borges, Jerome Salinger.According to the researcher, the choice of the Nobel Committee was determined by a number of factors: Churchill’s undoubted literary talent, manifested, however, first of all, in historical and memoir literature; the vast artistic legacy created by Churchill in these genres; outstanding public speaking skills of a British politician; charisma and political authority of his personality, as well as the circumstances of his life.Winston Churchill’s political, literary, and journalistic heritage retains its significance today, and his participation in the 1945 Yalta Conference lends the study a geographical proximity to Crimea. At the same time, the article allows for a specific historical example to analyze the decision-making mechanisms to award the most prestigious literary prize in the world.

Abstract:

Winston Churchill fue sin duda uno de los líderes más carismáticos del siglo XX. Lo fue en vida, y su mito se consagró tras su muerte. El presente trabajo estudia el tratamiento audiovisual de este personaje en el cine y la televisión hasta nuestros días. Se pretende identificar los rasgos del mito de Churchill, tal y como los medios los han venido transmitiendo a la sociedad en las últimas décadas, para contrastar la imagen resultante con el Churchill histórico. El objetivo final es intentar calibrar hasta que punto los medios audiovisuales, en su condición de transmisores del conocimiento histórico, están reinterpretando o no al personaje, al margen de las biografías convencionales publicadas.
