This latest batch of articles for our Vanbrugh publication brings together a fascinating range of research into the ways people, institutions, and ideas shape human experience.
Ginny M explores the political messaging woven into Baroque court fashion, whilst Hattie B considers the personal consequences of imprisonment, taking inspiration from Vanbrugh’s own time in prison. In contrast, Georgina G explores changing treatments for asthma, while the role of Blenheim Palace during the Second World War is recounted by Scarlett P, and Lucy L stays local (perhaps in name only!) by writing an exciting account of life of the ninth Duke of Marlborough.
This eclectic range of topics demonstrates well our Academic Scholars’ independent interests, as well as the vast choices the period of Vanbrugh offers for research and enquiry.
You can read these articles, alongside all the published articles to date, on our Vanbrugh and his Time webpage.
