The Genius of Josiah Wedgwood
Description
This Grierson Award nominated film follows Josiah Wedgwood, one of the founding fathers of the Industrial Revolution and the man who revolutionized English pottery. Wedgwood was a self-made, self-educated creative giant, whose other achievements might be better known if he wasn't so celebrated for his pottery. Historian A.N. Wilson shows that Wedgwood was a man with a hand in every part of the revolutionary pie: invention, transport policy, engineering, politics, marketing, education, industrial relations, trade, human rights - and philosophy.
