2025-02-10 10:30 - 11:30 | Salón de Actos, Espai La Senieta, Ctra. Moraira a Calpe, 8, Moraira, Alicante, 03724, Spain
Speaker: Alan Hunton

Serendipity is a remarkable phenomenon which describes a most beneficial outcome achieved purely by chance. We will see that a significant number of scientific discoveries throughout history have been made by mistake; such that the intended result failed but the unintended consequence was so dramatic and useful to society that the researcher was then awarded a Nobel prize.

A well-known example is that of the work of Alexander Fleming who had the foresight to realise that the mouldy formation that appeared in a petri dish that he had forgotten to clean could be useful. At the time he was not studying antibiotics but he understood there was potential and penicillin has since saved millions of lives.

In this talk we will look at ten different Eureka moments in history and we can ask the question, do the people who made such discoveries deserve the recognition and reward given that they stumbled upon the outcomes?

The true story of Sir Nicholas ‘Nicky’ Winton, a young London broker who, in the months leading up to World War II, rescued 669 predominantly Jewish children from the Nazis. Nicky visited Prague in December 1938 and found families who had fled the rise of the Nazis in Germany and Austria, living indesperate conditions with little or no shelter and food, and under threat of Nazi invasion. He immediately realized it was a race against time. How many children could he and the team rescue before the borders closed? Fifty years later, it’s 1988 and Nicky lives haunted by the fate of the children he wasn’t able to bring to safety in England; always blaming himself for not doing more. It’s not until a live BBC television show, ‘That’s Life’, surprises him by introducing him to some surviving children – now adults – that he finally begins to come to terms with the guilt and grief he had carried for five decades.

In northern Australia at the beginning of World War II, an English aristocrat inherits a cattle station the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough stock-man to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country’s most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbour only months earlier.

Carmen Amaya (1918-1963)
2025-03-10 10:30 - 11:30 | Salón de Actos, Espai La Senieta, Ctra. Moraira a Calpe, 8, Moraira, Alicante, 03724, Spain
Speaker: Angela Chantry

Considered by many to be the greatest flamenco dancer of all time, Carmen Amaya gave her own definition to the art of flamenco. Her career began at the age of four and throughout her childhood she performed alongside her father in the taverns and music halls of Barcelona. With the outbreak of the Spanish Civil War in the 1930s she travelled the world and achieved her greatest fame in the Americas. She made films in Hollywood, appeared on Broadway, danced for Roosevelt and Churchill, but always remained true to her gypsy heritage. Flamenco today is deeply indebted to Carmen Amaya – through her artistry and virtuosity she effectively altered the history of flamenco dance forever.

The WPA: How Artists were Helped by the New Deal
2025-03-24 10:30 - 11:30 | Salón de Actos, Espai La Senieta, Ctra. Moraira a Calpe, 8, Moraira, Alicante, 03724, Spain
Speaker: Rosalind Miranda

As a lead-up to the New Deal in the USA in the 1930s & some of the artists who were helped by this program, I will start with some nostalgia about the Roaring Twenties. Even if we didn’t live through those years, it’s fun to hark back to those wild times. All good things come to an end, though, & that decade finished with the start of the Great Depression. As this is too . . . well, depressing to spend much time on, we won’t focus on the worst of it. Instead, we’ll quickly go onto the programs in the US that helped many people get through the hardest of those dreadful times. From the general programs, we’ll look specifically at those that helped the creative community.

Prepare to be surprised to hear about some artists who later became very famous & wealthy, but who were glad to receive a paycheck of $23.60 per week during the bad years!

Everyone has their own Chimera, the impossible dream they try to achieve but never manage to. For crumpled English archaeologist Arthur, just out of jail, the Chimera looks like the woman he lost, Beniamina. So, to help him in his quest, he reconnects with his wayward crew of tombaroli accomplices – a happy-go-lucky collective of itinerant grave-robbers dreaming of easy wealth who survive by looting Etruscan tombs and fencing the ancient treasures they dig up.
