SUMMARY:Zoom now available: NELH Tuesday Meeting: Mike Barke will talk about his new book on the history of Newcastle: Mapping the City
DESCRIPTION:Join Zoom Meeting \nhttps://us02web.zoom.us/j/86337404230?pwd=MEtySlM0WTB1amhNejJTdEV0aHEyZz09 \nMeeting ID: 863 3740 4230 \nPasscode: 361822 \nOur first Tuesday meeting of the year will take place on 25 January at 7.00pm when Mike Barke will talk the history of Newcastle-upon-Tyne based on his new book\, Mapping the City (co-authored with Brian Robson and Anthony Champion). \nNewcastle has a long and distinguished history through two millennia: a Roman fortress at the eastern end of Hadrian’s Wall; an important centre of monasticism; a ‘royal’ bulwark against attacks and invasion from Scotland; and the principal centre for the export of coal to London. In the 19th century it was transformed into an elegant Georgian townscape with dramatic streets and handsome public buildings.\n \n\nIt and other towns on the Tyne – Gateshead\, Jarrow\, Wallsend\, Tynemouth\, North and South Shields – developed important industries: shipbuilding\, glass and heavy engineering. Tyneside suffered severe contraction in the 20th century as heavy industry declined\, but it has begun to reinvent itself and create new growth shoots\, not least its vibrant cultural industries including music and art. \nThis book takes an innovative approach to telling the story of the area’s history by focusing on the historic maps and plans that record the growth and development of Newcastle and Tyneside over many centuries.  \nMichael Barke was Reader in Human Geography at Northumbria University\, Newcastle upon Tyne\, where he taught from 1974 until his retirement in 2016. His research interests include the demographic and urban history of the North East.\n \nA link for the meeting will be posted nearer the time.
