DESCRIPTION:2015 makes the 80th anniversary of the death of T. E. Lawrenc
 e\, 'Lawrence of Arabia'. This one-day workshop brings together scholars
  to discuss aspects of Lawrence's career and reputation which have remai
 ned surprisingly neglected amidst the vast body of writing on one of the
  most famous Britons of the twentieth century. What was the significance
  of Lawrence's work in Mesopatamia? Why did similar missions on both the
  German/Ottoman and the British side not enter the popular imagination? 
 In what ways was Lawrence's image shaped by the emerging 'celebrity cult
 ure' of the inter-war period? And how was Lawrence remembered by those w
 ho continued to work with Bedouin groups after Husein's revolt. The John
  Rylands Library provides the ideal setting for the workshop\, given Law
 rence's correspondence with Prof. Lewis Namier of the University of Manc
 hester's History Department. \n\n10 for 10.15 start + Coffee\n10.15 - 11
