On this episode we continue our important battles series as we set sail on the high seas during the Napoleonic Wars. Sometimes in history one bold plan can change the world. Today we analyze Admiral Lord Nelson's actions at the Battle at Trafalgar.
This week Beau and Carl discuss the life and career of Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson. From his earliest career and his astonishing rise through the ranks, his long list of battle honours, his many war wounds, and his final glorious death in combat.
On the anniversary of the Battle of Trafalgar of 1805 we look at a question that is central to the legend that grew up around the events of October 1805. How did a naval officer end up with a state funeral with no precedent for someone who was not a member of the Royal Family? How was death perceived in the Royal Navy of the Age of Sail and why did a heroic death matter so much? To find out more Dr Sam Willis spoke with Dr Dan O'Brien, Visiting Research Fellow at the Centre for Death and Society, University of Bath. Hosted on Acast.

On 24 May 2010, artist Yinka Shonibare unveiled Nelson's Ship in a Bottle, on the fourth plinth in London's Trafalgar Square. The piece was the world's largest ship in a bottle, but it wasn't just any vessel. It was a replica of HMS Victory, commanded by Admiral Lord Nelson in the Battle of Trafalgar, except Yinka had made an eye-catching change. The ship's plain sails had been replaced with colourful Dutch wax sails. Dutch wax is a fabric typically sold in West Africa. Yinka's work captivated crowds and left people wondering what it meant. “Some people were like ‘oh great we are celebrating Britishness. Fantastic', and then some other groups said ‘Oh this is a critique of Britain. Fantastic'. I love it when the work does that!”, says Yinka. He tells Anoushka Mutanda-Dougherty how his artwork was created and what it means to him.
The Battle of Trafalgar is probably Britain's greatest naval victory. It was certainly the one that had the longest lasting impact on her position as a global power in the 19th century.It was also the lasting legacy of her most famous naval commander, Admiral Lord Nelson.At the height of the battle, Nelson was mortally wounded and died soon after hearing of the Royal Navy's success.Support the show

It was October when I took the Norwegian Airlines flight to Stockholm. It made me think for a few seconds while in flight that I may be going to Oslo instead.Staying in Stockholm's Old Town is a great area to be. You can just spend your day walking around.Coffee shops, Pubs, Historical Buildings, and blocks of ice high up on buildings. The latter you have to be aware of, although there are Ice Managment Staff monitoring and removing any signs of falling ice blocks.Take a walk to Abba's museum and reminisce about the great music of the 70's and 80's. Staying at the Victory Hotel was excellent and made me think about Admiral Lord Nelson and the Battle of Trafalgar, and why I would see this in Stockholm.I sailed through the Stockholm Archipelago which was just spectacular and was honored to be ask to speak from the Cruise Ship's Bridge as we navigated the area.Great memories.Also, thanks to Feedspot for putting the Travel Addict Podcast high in the MIdlife Travel categoryhttps://podcasts.feedspot.com/midlife_travel_podcasts/ http://www.malcolmteasdale.com
In Londons Zentrum, am berühmten Trafalgar Square, thront auf einer 46 Meter hohen Granitsäule die Statue des „Admiral Horatio Nelson“. Unsere England-Fans Alexander-Klaus Stecher und Claus Beling begeben sich in dieser Episode des BRITPOD auf die Spuren des größten Seefahrers seiner Zeit: Am 21. Oktober 1805 ereignet sich die berühmteste Seeschlacht aller Zeiten – die Schlacht von Trafalgar. Unter dem Kommando von Admiral Lord Nelson triumphiert Englands Royal Navy über die zahlenmäßig weit überlegene französische Flotte Napoleons. Das Geheimnis hinter diesem Coup: Nelsons Seestreitmacht wird über eine damals hochmoderne Navigationstechnik gesteuert - den "Time Ball Tower" in der Ortschaft Deal. Außerdem sind seine Schiffe mit Kanonen ausgerüstet, die innerhalb von 90 Sekunden nachgeladen werden können. Die Franzosen benötigen dafür mehr als 5 Minuten. Durch diesen triumphalen Sieg wird England für rund 100 Jahre zur beherrschenden Seemacht der Welt. Tragisch: Nelson selbst erlebt den Beginn des Britischen Empire nicht mehr. Die Kugel eines Scharfschützen trifft ihn und er stirbt noch während der Schlacht an Bord seiner glorreichen "Victory". -- BRITPOD - England at its Best - wird präsentiert von Romance TV. Dem Zuhause der Rosamunde-Pilcher-Filmreihe und romantischer Serien. -- Ein ALL EARS ON YOU Original Podcast.

There are countless questions for schools to consider in the wake of Covid-19 closures, but perhaps chief among them is how to look after their students’ mental health in this strange time. The link between creativity and improved mental health is now well established, so could an increased focus on this area be key to moving forward with wellbeing? In this podcast, Tes speaks to two experts to get an in-depth analysis of the topic. Julia Wisbey is a senior leader and director of performance at Admiral Lord Nelson secondary school in Portsmouth (which was named creative school of the year at the 2019 TES awards, and was the first school in the country to receive the Artsmark platinum award twice). She’s joined by Wendy Cobb; a senior lecturer in the school of Early Years and Primary Initial Teacher Education at Canterbury Christ Church University, with a particular focus on behaviour, working with parents and emotional health. In this lively, wide-ranging discussion they explore issues including: How recent education trends have affected mental health What creative thinking really looks like (and how it can protect young people) The difficultly of combining wellbeing and accountability How a creative approach to Covid-19 has benefitted lots of schools This podcast is sponsored by Artsmark (https://www.artsmark.org.uk/) .
