Toynbee

In Malaya and British Borneo Chinese ethnie nationalism focussed on China was the only serious political movement until the very last years of the pre-war old order. Arnold Toynbee was profoundly wrong but symptomatic of the times when he declared When I touched at the Straits Settlements on my way out east I realized that British Malaya...

Who made up the Temperance Movement It was run by Jane Addams, who studied the Fabian Society s London settlement house Toynbee Hall experiment and came to the United States to launch a parallel project which later produced the University of Chicago. (4) The "cadre" were drawn almost exclusively from three pools 1) the settlement house and suffragette networks run by Addams and the Russell Sage Foundation 2) the proterrorist synthetic religious cults operated out of Oberlin College in Ohio and 3) the Ku Klux Klan in the South. 

Bulwer-Lytton directly influenced John Ruskin at Oxford University and established the lineage that leads — through such names as Milner and Rhodes — to the present-day Royal Institute of International Affairs. Ruskin s students included Milner, Rhodes, Albert Grey, and the future director of research for the RIIA, Arnold Toynbee. 

The "case officer" for Britain s Opium War was Aldous Huxley, the grandson of Thomas H. Huxley, a founder of the Rhodes Round Table group and a lifelong collaborator of Arnold Toynbee. Toynbee himself sat on the RIIA council for nearly 50 years, headed the Research Division of British intelligence... 

Trained at Toynbee s Oxford, Aldous Huxley was one of the initiates in the "Children of the Sun," a dionysian cult comprised of the children of Britain s Round Table elite. (4) Among the other initiates were T.S. Eliot, W. H. Auden, Sir Oswald Moseley, and D. H. Lawrence, Huxley s homosexual lover. It was Huxley, furthermore, who would launch the legal battle in the 1950s to have Lawrence s pornographic novel Lady Chatterley s Lover allowed into the United States on the ground that it was a misunderstood "work of art."

Hartle, who had been taught by Freund at Newnham, had spent 2 years at Birmingham as a researcher with Percy Frankland, spouse of Toynbee. Frankland was another champion of women chemists. In fact, it will always be an unanswered question whether it was the men, such as Ramsay and Frankland, who provided many of the links between women at different universities, as they would have had the professional and social network to do so. 

Percy Frankland, together with his father, Edward Frankland, had set up a private analytical laboratory in London, and it was here that Toynbee commenced her scientific career. Though both father and son were chemists, they had a strong interest in bacteriological problems, particularly those relating to human health. Toynbee s first publication, co-authored with Percy Frankland, was on microorganisms in air. 

At Dundee, Toynbee continued her research, which included studies of the reactions involved in bacteriological fermentation as a means of synthesising chemical compounds. In 1894, they moved to Birmingham, where Frankland had been appointed Professor of Chemistry. It was during her time at Birmingham that Toynbee added her signature to the 1904 petition for the admission of women to the Chemical Society (see Chap. 2). 

In 1894, the Franklands co-authored a book, Micro Organisms in Water Their Significance, Identification and Removal18 then Toynbee, on her own, wrote a more popular book, Bacteria in Daily Life,19 published in 1903. It would seem that after the move to Birmingham, Toynbee focused more on science journalism than laboratory research. She was elected a Fellow of the Royal Microscopical Society in 1900, and was one of the first 12 women scientists admitted to the Linnean Society in 1904. 

With Frankland s retirement in 1919, they moved to Scotland, where Toynbee died on 5 October 1946, Frankland dying 3 weeks later. Frankland s obituarist, William Garner, noted ...
