Many accounts of the formative years of English modernism rely on Futurism's own questionable record of F. T. Marinetti's visit to London in the spring of 1910 as the catalyst for an avant-garde revolution in Anglo-American literature that led through Roger Fry's revolutionary Post-Impressionist exhibition to Imagism, and onto Vorticism. New evidence presented here, however, supports the position advanced by a number of scholars that Marinetti did not visit until after Fry's exhibition. We can now quite precisely date Marinetti's important 'Futurist Speech to the English' to Tuesday 13 December 1910, rather than to the spring of that year as previously thought. Close examination of the content and context of this lecture, to an audience of Suffragettes at the Lyceum Club for Women, highlights the sheer extent of Marinetti's propaganda drive between 1908 and 1910, as he attempted to garner support for his movement and neutralise the satirical attitude of the mainstream English press. Moreover, Futurism, it appears, actively altered the historical record in order to genealogically prioritise itself. Such a process finds itself recursively working back into modernist studies, through a process in which theories of British historical and cultural decline or inferiority, alongside a presupposition of the continental avant-garde's guiding influence, tend to unconsciously take root in studies of literature of this period. In contrast and as illustration, we can find in one of Wyndham Lewis's early essays – previously considered imitative of, but now clearly an influence upon, Marinetti – the extent to which 'on or about December 1910' British society and culture was already in the process of radicalizing itself.

Recent research has emphasized the importance of different kinds of 'central places' in the articulation of power in the Iberian Peninsula across the late antique and early medieval periods. Such sites were a focus of political, social and economic activity at a local level, also serving to integrate their regions into broader systems such as the emerging Visigothic kingdom and networks of taxation and trade. This article relates central place theory to the study of the highlands of Granada in the sixth century – a period and place with minimal documentary and literary evidence – in order to understand developments in the organization and defence of the territory in the context of conflicts between Visigoths and Byzantines. Particular emphasis is placed on the control of the communications network the exploitation of the best agricultural land, mining and the likely agency of local elites.
