Thames Television did a 4-part drama in 1991 of Rosemary Sutcliff’s Viking story ‘Blood Feud’—called The Seadragon. They altered the end of the story completely. She said: “It made a jolly good adventure but it wasn’t remotely connected with mine, most of the time.” #BloodFeud
I just wish PM Rishi Sunak was determined to reform the tax system, to ensure good public services are sustained. He should make the tax system fairer to the needy, better “targeted” on the rich & wealthy, and certainly “harder to exploit by those who are gaming the system”.
What were these Roman artefacts [used] for? Has anyone suggested herb-growing? In any event, pace the Silchester Eagle (@readingmuseum) which inspired Rosemary Sutcliff's #TheEagleOfTheNinth maybe the Norton Disney Dodecahedron will inspire a fine story? theguardian.com/uk-news/2024/a…

This thought-provoking, passionate, welcome (to me if not commenters) article by @realzoestrimpel led me to wonder re ‘codes’ of UK military, notably Navy, which led me to muse on my great Uncle’s influence on his daughter, eminent historical-fiction writer Rosemary Sutcliff … https://t.co/HpUZ0sZy7Q
Rosemary Sutcliff (b 1920) adored her father, a Royal Navy Commodore. She imbued from him a deep sense of values, influenced I suspect by the values of the RN. No wonder Sutcliff’s historical fiction time & again has themes of courage & commitment, respect, integrity, & loyalty.
I realised that #IDidNotKnow meaning of “revanchism” asused by @andrewrawnsley in thoughtful Observer article on hard choices to be made if UK defence spending has to rise. (“One strategic error was to fail to foresee that Russia could turn revanchist and menace Europe again”.)
Interviewed before receiving her CBE 👇 Rosemary Sutcliff recalled that, receiving her OBE, the Queen had said: ”I believe you write books?” Asked what the monarch might say this time, Romey (as I knew her) grinning said “I expect she’ll say—‘I believe you still write books?’”
Inspired by Dr Poulter, Piglet knew he’d done all he could to save himself, quitting the Conservatives for Labour. “So now,” he thought, “somebody else will have to do something, & I hope they will do it soon.” And then he gave a very long sigh and said, “I wish Pooh were here…
A Secret: For young writers, perhaps budding Rosemary Sutcliffs even… a chance to enter their writing for a prize — in memory of a daughter who died young. londonreviewbookshop.co.uk/blog/2024/apri… ( From @LRBbookshop via @guardian )
The Post Office scandal gets worse & worse. Not only did it offer a mere £140,000 to the widow of the sub-postmaster who walked in front of a bus. The PO insisted the ££ payment was staged, with an NDA, so they could stop payments if she spoke out. bbc.com/news/articles/…

“I do write every day… I feel guilty if I don’t. I feel as if I haven’t really used the day unless I’ve got something down on paper to show for it.” #RosemarySutcliffOnWriting #onwriting | Illustration by #CharlesKeeping
An ‘orrery’ is a moving model of the motions of the Earth, Moon, & Sun. Orreries can be used to demonstrate day and night, the seasons, lunar phases, and eclipses. There may be a candle in the centre to stand for the light of the Sun. (Via @WhippleMuseum )
Sutcliff had “very little idea” what made the difference between her children’s & adult books. “I have this thing… I don’t write for adults, I don’t write for children. I don’t write for the outside world at all. Basically, I write for some small, inquiring thing in myself.”
One week to go until our seminar on The Premodern Scottish Place, Friday 3 May 2024, where you can explore the histories of early Scottish maps and texts. Spaces still available to attend online. More information and book to attend online at maps.nls.uk/projects/place…
Hmmm...is #ListeningToRosemarySutcliff the "same" as #ReadingRosemarySutcliff? "Listening to an audiobook is reading,” says Louise Morrish, a librarian turned novelist who has worked libraries, & now works at a Hants secondary school theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…
Rosemary Sutcliff in 1992 told an interviewer: “I don’t honestly know (the reason for far-reaching appeal). It’s a fascinating thing, this business of a writer’s voice… I’ve always said that I belong to the minstrelsy in that I simply find a story that I want to tell.”

A witness has just said of someone: "He wouldn't have survived at Royal Mail for 17 years without knowing what he was doing." Having watched hours of Horizon Inquiry hearings, I can confidently say that doesn't follow at all.
So far every Post Office executive before the inquiry has denied responsibility for pretty much anything. Could it be that there's a Deep Post Office that really runs things?

@rsutcliff @readingmuseum It is an oddity. Surprising that nobody has a clue what it’s for.
I read voraciously as a child. Home wasn't very happy, so books were my escape and I learned more from them than I did at school. My all round favourite authors as a child were Rosemary Sutcliffe, Eve Garnett and Mary Renault.

@thehistoryguy Except he didn't 'burst in'. He entered as normal, listened to the debate for some time, then rose & delivered his stinging rebuke before calling in soldiers in to clear the House. But his words have contemporary relevance, for sure.

#RosemarySutcliffOnWriting plus wonderful #CharlesKeeping illustrations. (Which books?)
The ‘temptation” Rosemary Sutcliff once said: “is to try & use everything you’ve found out in…research. That can be fatal, because you…only need to use about 1/10. It’s…like an iceberg…It has to be there, because it gives you the freedom of the period. But you don’t use it.”
