Keebaugh 2 ―I received a letter from the American Quarter Horse Association saying that I was the only member on their list who actually doesn‘t own a horse.‖—Jim Logg to Ernest the Sincere from Love Never Dies in Punxsutawney To James E. Schoenfelder 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS A project such as this one could easily go on forever. That said, I wish to thank many people for their assistance and support during the four years it took to complete this dissertation. First, I thank the members of my committee—Dr. Larry Crook, Dr. Paul Richards, Dr. Joyce Davis, and Dr. Jessica Harland-Jacobs—for their comments and pointers on the written draft of this work. I especially thank my committee chair, Dr. David Z. Kushner, for his guidance and friendship during my graduate studies at the University of Florida the past decade. I have learned much from the fine example he embodies as a scholar and teacher for his students in the musicology program. I also thank the University of Florida Center for European Studies and Office of Research, both of which provided funding for my travel to London to conduct research at the British Library. I owe gratitude to the staff at the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. for their assistance in locating some of the materials in the Victor Herbert Collection. -

Often considered only in the context of his work in England, with occasional references to his Irish birthplace, the reception of Stanford’s music in America provides fresh perspectives on the composer and his music. Such a study also highlights the circulation of culture between Ireland, England and the USA at the start of the twentieth century and the importance of national identity in a cosmopolitan society of many diasporas. Although he never visited America, the reception of Stanford’s music and reviews in the American media highlight the cultural (mis)understanding that existed and the evolving identities in both American and British society at the turn of the twentieth century. -

Averse as Sir Arthur is to the " interview " in journalism, I could not resist the temptation to ask him to let me do something of the sort when I first had the pleasure of meeting ^ him — not in regard to journalistic matters — some years ago. That permission was most genially , granted, and the little chat which I had with J him then, in regard to the opera which he was writing, appeared in The World.

George Grove and the Establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund
Chapter One George Grove and the Establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund David M. Jacobson Abstract This article surveys the growing thirst for factual evidence relating to the world of the Bible in mid-19th century Britain and early tentative efforts to address this demand. It was against this background that the polymath George Grove sought to establish a secular institution devoted to the multidisciplinary study of the southern Levant based on scientific principles. Evidence is marshalled to show that it was Grove’s exceptional combination of talents—his organizational and networking skills, natural intelligence, and wide interests, including a profound knowledge of the geography of the Bible—that enabled him to recruit some of the most illustrious figures of Victorian Britain to help him realize this ambition in 1865, with the establishment of the Palestine Exploration Fund (PEF). Keywords: James Fergusson; George Grove; history of Levantine studies; Palestine Exploration Fund; Arthur Penrhyn Stanley Introduction undertaking, and it was Grove who took on the role of PEF Honorary Secretary (Lipman 1988: 47).
