Rodney Graham (s. 1949) on Kanadan arvostetuimpia nykytaiteilijoita. Hän tarkastelee teoksissaan länsimaisen kulttuurin kerrostumia ja kollektiivista muistia. Graham käyttää lähtökohtinaan laajoja viittauksia filosofiaan, psykoanalyysiin, eri aikakausien taiteeseen ja populaarikulttuuriin. Hänet tunnetaan parhaiten monumentaalisista valokuvateoksista, joissa hän omaksuu erilaisia valeasuisia ja kuvitteellisia rooleja. Teoksia leimaavat paitsi hienovireinen nostalgia ja melankolia myös lempeä huumori ja runollinen ironia.Rodney Graham (b. 1949) ranks among Canada's most acclaimed contemporary artists. His work engages with themes such as collective memory and the interlayered nature of western culture. It is informed by references to philosophy, psychoanalysis, art history, and popular culture. Graham is best known for his monumental photographic installations in which he dons costumes and plays fictitious roles. His work is tinged with subtle nostalgia and melancholy, tempered by gentle humour and poetic irony.

Rodney explores the rise and career of a naval commander within the context maritime power. Drawing from a stable family heritage in Somersetshire, the narrative traces early influences and the beginning of naval service during a time when national dominance at sea was still uncertain. The book focuses on the shaping of ambition, discipline, and command within the structures of naval life rather than offering a straightforward biography. Early passages present the routines and demands of life at sea during peacetime, portraying it as a period of preparation rather than rest. Avoiding glorification, the story emphasizes a complex individual shaped by duty, endurance, and exposure to global conflict. The account examines how leadership emerges not only from heritage but through consistent decision-making under pressure. Personal achievements are placed within a broader imperial context, showing how military service at sea demanded resilience and adaptability. The work ultimately reflects on legacy, loyalty, and the cost of command during a formative era in naval history.

The Rodney Papers

The Rodney Papers

Overbearing, avaricious and difficult, yet talented and ambitious, George Brydges Rodney has never attracted much sympathy or understanding. He was nevertheless an original thinker and one of the great admirals of the eighteenth century. The contents of this volume, the first of three, document his career from 1742 until 1763 - his private and political life. His early years as a captain were spent in the severe conditions of the North Sea and in taking privateers in the western approaches. During the peace after 1748 he was Governor of Newfoundland and in the Seven Years' War blockaded Le Havre before going, as a flag officer, to command in the Leeward Islands where he participated in the capture of Martinique. This volume also contains letters to his wife which indicate, against past opinion, that Rodney had a heart.
