He was known both as the 'Sailor King' and as 'Silly Billy'. His reign saw the passing of the Reform Act of William was born at Buckingham Palace in London William the Fourth 21 August At the age of 13 he began a career in the Royal Navy. William the Fourth enjoyed his time at sea, seeing service in America and the West Indies and becoming admiral of the fleet in Inhe was created Duke of Clarence. From the early s untilWilliam lived with his mistress, the actress Dorothy Jordan. They had 10 children who took the surname Fitzclarence. InWilliam's oldest brother George became prince regent later William the Fourth IV when their father was declared insane. The death of the prince regent's only daughter in resulted in a scramble among George's brothers to marry and produce heirs. He was initially very popular. His insistence on a simple coronation contrasted with the extravagance of his brother's reign. William's reign was dominated by the Reform crisis. It began almost immediately when the Duke of Wellington's Tory government, which William supported, lost the general election in August The Whigs, led by Lord Grey, came to power intent on pushing William the Fourth electoral reform against William the Fourth opposition in the Commons and the Lords. Another general election in gave the Whigs a majority in the Commons but the Lords continued to reject the Reform Bill. There was a political crisis during the winter ofwith riots in some parts of the country. The king eventually agreed to create enough new Whig peers to get the bill through the House of Lords, but the Lords, who had opposed it, backed down and William the Fourth was passed. The Reform Act abolished some of the worst abuses of the electoral system and extended the franchise to the middle classes. Search term:. Read more.

William the Fourth last year I came upon the William the Fourth of the library of a very wealth Swiss family. The dispersal of the expensive chattels of the estate, including the better books, was undertaken by one of those auction houses that specialises in the disposal of rich history. But the dregs of the books, as well as other very minor bits ended up in the stock of one of the sellers I frequent at the open air book markets in Geneva. A few of the items, though valueless, had the emblem of the house upon them, whic Early last year I came upon the dregs of the library of a very wealth Swiss family. A few of the items, though valueless, had the emblem of the house upon them, which is why I could tell what they were. William the Fourth or not, this was a family which had loved reading over hundreds of years and here were items from the s to s William the Fourth thereabouts, reflecting their interest in English William the Fourth for young and old. Some of it I bought out of sheer curiosity, authors like Barbara Pym I'd never read, but perhaps I should. William I bought because I adored these William the Fourth as a kid and haven't read them since the s. They had aged well then - this early one was first published in - and fifty years later again they are still standing up as fresh, fun and elegantly written. Apparently an attempt is being made to rehabilitate Crompton as a writer for adults. I must dip into that: if they are anything like as good as her books for children, they'll be a pleasure to snort over, taking care William the Fourth to spill one's cup of tea while doing that. Most of the stories are strong - I see one or two complaints on GR that they are repetitive from book to book, but children want that. If they are going to reread the same book over and over, why not stories that are the same but different? I particularly love the one where a big company opens a sweet shop in the village, undercutting Mr Moss with William the Fourth they have always shopped. Come Saturday they take their money to the new shop, get served by a girl who doesn't care and thinks having to sell to them in h'penny lots is ridiculous. As they walk along chomping on their lollies, they pass Mr Moss's shop. He is very sad, quite unlike his usual jolly self. He can't put his prices any lower, but, just like Amazon, the new shop has the financial power to sacrifice short term profits for the long term gains of putting William the Fourth Moss out of business with the cooperation William the Fourth the locals. He stresses to the boys that they are doing the right thing, of course they have to go to the cheaper shop, but vague ideas appear in the minds of the boys. William and his gang start realising that it isn't necessarily good to buy cheapest. They want Mr Moss to be happy. They talk about how when they buy from Mr Moss he cares, he is always interested in what they buy. He welcomes their purchasing a h'penny worth at a time. They are sure, now that they think about William the Fourth, that his sweets taste better too. But what to do? William the Fourth a campaign to William the Fourth people buy from Mr Moss, but how can they, they have no weight, why would anybody notice? Ah, but William, as William the Fourth has a plan. And as usual, no matter how many plans go awry, his followers fall into the next without a moment's hesitation. The Duke is going to be in town to open a Sale of Work. When he appears on stage to do that, unbeknownst to him, he has a big sign on his back advertising Mr Moss's shop. As he wanders around the Sale, the locals summon the Vicar to tell the Duke what's on his back, a large crowd following him around due to the unlikely sight. Just as the Vicar explains and takes the sign off to show the Duke, William and his cohorts appear, each wearing placards with creative spelling announcing the various benefits of Mr Moss's sweets. The Duke can recognise a ringleader when he sees one. He asks for William to be brought to him. William in his tripping over his tongue enthusiastic way explains about Mr Moss and the Amazon-like attempt to close him down and how much they want to help and that nobody would notice them unless, he William the Fourth, they could put their sign on an important person who would William the Fourth decent enough to care. Well, the Duke's been to more Sales of Work than he cares to think about and this is William the Fourth first bright moment he's had for many an appearance. He tells William and the others that they must discuss this further over ices. The eager captive audience of lads listens to his tales of adventure like big game hunting and together they discuss Red Indians and pirates. Then the Duke, with boys in hand, goes to visit Mr Moss. He buys a pound of sweets for each boy and he makes a standing order for himself of cokernuts.

  • The Death of Captain Cook in Theatre 224
    The Many Deaths of Captain Cook A Study in Metropolitan Mass Culture, 1780-1810 Ruth Scobie PhD University of York Department of English April 2013 i Ruth Scobie The Many Deaths of Captain Cook Abstract This thesis traces metropolitan representations, between 1780 and 1810, of the violent death of Captain James Cook at Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to these representations, in order to show how the interlinked texts of a nascent commercial culture initiated the creation of a colonial character, identified by Epeli Hau’ofa as the looming “ghost of Captain Cook.” The introduction sets out the circumstances of Cook’s death and existing metropolitan reputation in 1779. It situates the figure of Cook within contemporary mechanisms of ‘celebrity,’ related to notions of mass metropolitan culture. It argues that previous accounts of Cook’s fame have tended to overemphasise the immediacy and unanimity with which the dead Cook was adopted as an imperialist hero; with the result that the role of the scene within colonialist histories can appear inevitable, even natural. In response, I show that a contested mythology around Cook’s death was gradually constructed over the three decades after the incident took place, and was the contingent product of a range of texts, places, events, and individuals. The first section examines responses to the news of Cook’s death in January 1780, focusing on the way that the story was mediated by, first, its status as ‘news,’ created by newspapers; and second, the effects on Londoners of the Gordon riots in June of the same year.

    King William IV, monarch of England, reigned from 1830 until his death in 1837. William served in the Royal Navy in his youth and was, both during his reign and afterwards, nicknamed the "Sailor King". He served in North America and the Carribean. In 1789, he was crowned The Duke of Clarence and St Andrew's. Since his two older brothers died without leaving legitimate issue, he unexpectedly inherited the throne when he was 64 years old. His reign saw several reforms: the poor law was updated, child labour restricted, slavery abolished in nearly all the British Empire, and the British electoral system refashioned by the Reform Act 1832. At the time of his death William had no surviving legitimate children, but he was survived by eight of the ten illegitimate children he had by the actress Dorothea Jordan, with whom he cohabited for 20 years. William was succeeded in the United Kingdom by his niece, Victoria, and in Hanover by his brother, Ernest Augustus. Clarence Street was named in honour of "The Duke Of Clarence".

Having written in the last REVIEW about ―a year like no other‖ which concludes in this Edition, no one thought we would be living through another. Over 90% of the BU have been confined and we have seen the cancellation of The HCPT and BOFs Pilgrimage to Lourdes, The Verdun Battlefield Tour, The BUGS Meeting at Westerham and Ant Stevens much anticipated Musical ―Streetwise‖: Now rescheduled for 24-29 May 2021. Much quoted at the moment ―We will meet again, Don‘t know where, Don‘t know when but I know we will meet again some sunny day: - Actually it looks like a cloudy day in the Autumn if we are lucky! I was amazed by the response to my Easter Message: I don‘t know whether it could be described as an ―Urbi et Orbi‖ moment but it did bring a huge response from OBs worldwide. One such from Patrick Agnew which I share with you:- ―Indeed. We have taken a lot for granted, during our years; much to be grateful for.

  • The Just William Series of Books Was Born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890
    PEPYS JUST WILLIAM CARD GAME Comments about the cards in the game Richmal Crompton who wrote the Just William series of books was born Richmal Crompton Lamburn in 1890. She was the daughter of a clergyman and became a schoolmistress in 1914. She gave up teaching because she had begun to write part time in 1919 and was successful, so she decided to make it her full time job. She was very active in the Women’s Suffrage movement. Unfortunately she contracted poliomyelitis in 1923 and as a result she lost all use of her left leg and became confined to a wheelchair. She never married. The very first William story was published in Home Magazine and was entitled “Rice Mould Pudding”. The books about William were very popular and she wrote a total of 38 in all. Her other books also sold well and she wrote 41 adult novels, which she considered to be her main work, and another 9 books of short stories. All the William series were collections of short stories and they sold over 12 million copies in the UK alone. The illustrator of the William books was Thomas Henry Fisher (known as Thomas Henry) who illustrated Richmal Crompton’s books from 1919. Strangely, he never met her until 1954. He was also well known for his cartoons for Punch and London Opinion from 1945 to 1952. The very popular radio series of 1948 was broadcast on Children’s Hour by the BBC with David Spenser playing William and the stuck up Hubert Lane played by Charles Hawtry.

  • Caldicott School Reading List Which Book?! – Please Do Read This Introduction!
    Caldicott School Reading List Which Book?! – Please do read this introduction! In an ideal world we would all be free to spend many a leisurely hour browsing in bookshops and libraries. However, the fantastic abundance of titles available for children and ‘young-adults’ today can make finding the ‘right’ book an all too lengthy and sometimes baffling task. The following list is by no means comprehensive, but we have endeavoured to include as wide a range of fiction as possible – both classics and modern publications – as well as some non-fiction. We hope that this will go a little way toward encouraging an abiding love of stories, and knowledge, in every boy. Whilst there are many authors in this list, by no means have we included all of their books. If you find that you enjoy a book by a particular author, why not try something else written by them? We also understand that it is sometimes hard to choose a book based solely on title and author, however, if we were to include a brief blurb about each book, then it would take years to read the reading list! We recommend that you use this list, along with the internet, to do a bit of research to find blurbs and reviews and decide if you like the sound of a particular book. The list is 20 pages long, but broken down into Junior, Middle and Senior School Sections, with modern fiction first in each section, followed by classics, with a list of non-fiction work right at the very end.
