I am interested in old skills and old values and to this end I am digitising some books related to Victorian skills and values.
So far I have completed the Laws of the Navy a set of poems written by by Admiral Ronald Hopwood, C.B. entitled `The Laws of the Navy and Other Poems'. These poems have lessons for us about `The Old Way' - values, principles and practices we would do well to remember today.
... the breeze has spoken strangers, with a stirring tale to tell, And a thousand eager voices flung the challenge out to sea: "Come they hither in the old way, in the only way that's free?" And the flying Breeze called softly: "In the old way . . ."
I am working on `The Household Oracle - A Popular Referee on All Subjects of Household Enquiry' edited by Alfred H Miles. It is presented as a fascinating insight into the running of middle class household in Victorian England at the end of the 1800's.
The material in the associated pages (see the `Household Oracle Index') is scanned and reformatted from a handbook entitled
`The Household Oracle aims to be a popular referee on subjects of household enquiry' - A.H.M.
For many years I have worked on Enquire Within, a software programme I developed which is designed to help elicit people's personal constucts using the repertory grid process developed George Kelly, an American engineer turned psychologist. It is a difficult process to use well but Enquire Within provides a great deal of help and guidance, by the way it is designed, to ensure effective and ethical application. The Enquire Within site provides a great deal of background and practical application material.
My personal belief is that Repertory Grid has power to make a real difference for good in the world.
I hope you enjoy browsing here and that the information is useful to those of you renovating houses.
