  • Records Ofearfvq English Drama
    1980 :1 A newsletter published by University of Toronto Press in association with Erindale College, University of Toronto and Manchester University Press . JoAnna Dutka, editor Records ofEarfvq English Drama In this issue are Ian Lancashire's biennial bibliography of books and articles on records of drama and minstrelsy, and A .F. Johnston's list of errata and disputed readings of names in the York volumes. IAN LANCASHIRE Annotated bibliography of printed records of early British drama and minstrelsy for 1978-9 This list includes publications up to 1980 that concern records of performers and performance, but it does not notice material treating play-texts or music as such, and general or unannotated bibliographies . Works on musical, antiquarian, local, and even archaeological history figure as large here as those on theatre history . The format of this biennial bibliography is similar to that of Harrison T . Meserole's computerized Shakespeare bibliography. Literary journal titles are abbreviated as they appear in the annual MLA bibliography . My annotations are not intended to be evaluative ; they aim to abstract concisely records information or arguments and tend to be fuller for items presenting fresh evidence than for items analyzing already published records . I have tried to render faithfully the essentials of each publica- tion, but at times I will have missed the point or misstated it: for these errors I ask the indulgence of both author and user . Inevitably I will also have failed to notice some relevant publications, for interesting information is to be found in the most unlikely titles; my search could not be complete, and I was limited practically in the materials available to me up to January 1980.

Formal gardens gave way to naturalistic parkland of trees, expanses of water and rolling grass. He also designed great houses, churches and garden buildings, and was skilled in engineering, especially with water. This guide was created as part of a festival celebrating the 300th Aerial view of the landscape at Castle Ashby © Northamptonshire Gardens Trust anniversary of his birth.

  • Property Law and Imperial and British Titles: the Dukes of Marlborough and the Principality of Mindelheim
    Tijdschrift voor Rechtsgeschiedenis 77 (2009) 191-210 Revue d’Histoire du Droit 77 (2009) 191-210 The Legal History Review 77 (2009) 191-210 Property law and Imperial and British titles: the Dukes of Marlborough and the Principality of Mindelheim Noel Cox* Summary The title of prince of the Holy Roman Empire was conferred in 1704 upon all the children heirs and lawful descendants, male and female, of John Churchill, the first duke of Marlborough. The title of prince of Mindelheim was granted in 1705 to all male descendants and daughters of the first duke. But following the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713 and the Treaty of Rastatt in 1714 the principality passed to Bavaria. The right of the dukes of Marlborough to use the style and title was thus lost, and any residual rights would have expired in 1722 on the death of the duke, as they could not pass to a daughter (unlike his British titles). Despite this it is still common practice to describe the Duke of Marlborough as a Prince of the Holy Roman Empire and Prince of Mindelheim. This paper considers the differences in the treatment of the descent of the British and imperial titles. Keywords Duke of Marlborough; John Churchill; Principality of Mindelheim; Principality of Mellenburg; prince of the Holy Roman Empire; peerage; statutory entail; alienation. Introduction Field Marshal Sir John Churchill, first duke of Marlborough, was one of the greatest military commanders in history. He held the office of Captain- General of the English and then British army (the late seventeenth and early eighteenth century equivalent of Commander-in-Chief of the Forces), in 1690–1691 and 1702–1711.

    A Iirnil'RTO UNRECOGNIZED CAVALIER DRAMATIST: JAMES COMPTON, THIRD EARL OF NORTHAMPTON H I I. ION K KI t.tllF.R ON 8 March K)78 there was offered for sale at Christie's, as lot 293, a large collection oric:inatinG; trom Castle .\shb\ in Northamptonshire of plays and other writings in manuscript that had largely been lost sight of since Thomas Percy, the literary historian and editor ot the Reliques of Ancient English Poetry^ first noted their existence during his residence in the area as Vicar of Easton Maudit between 1753 and 1782. They had been rccoxered as recently as September 1977 by the present Marquess of Northampton from the back ot a drawer in the house, and their rediscovery had been announced in '//;(• Tunes Literary Supplement of 9 December that year by Professor William P. \\ illianis, an .American scholar whose inquiry regarding their whereabouts had prompted this tortunate event.' Percy's list of nine ofthe plays in this collection occurs among the annotations that he made in a copy of Langbaine's Account of the English Dramatic Poets (Oxford, r6(ji) that is now preserved in F^dinburgh University Library.^ It was to Cosmo \lanucci or Manuche, the author of two of the pieces in his list as also of a iliird not rccnrdcd b\ him that Percy had, as he later recalled in his notes, been inclined to ascribe all ihu plays when he saw them together. Christie's cataloguer was more cautious, ascribing all but those manuscripts that bear Manuche's signed dedications to the 3rd l",arl of Northampton to an 'unidentified Cavalier Dramatist, circa 1640 to 1050', though mentioning a possibility that they might be the work of one Samuel Holland, the manuscripts of whose two-part masque entitled The Enchanted Groi\\-^ also dedicated to Northampton and now lost (though perhaps not beyond hope of recovery), Percy had also seen at Castle Asbby.

  • A Nevill Effigy in the Parish Church of St Lawrence, Mereworth, Kent
    A Pied Bull: A Nevill Effigy in the Parish Church of St Lawrence, Mereworth, Kent MARCUS HERBERT THE FOLLOWING STUDY sets out to examine the history of an effigy of an armoured man in the church at Mereworth dating from the early Tudor period. It is generally held that the individual commemorated by the figure belonged to a cadet branch of the Nevill family of Westmorland. The reasons for this belief are explained together with a reappraisal of the dating evidence and an examination of the candidates. Introduction Around 1742 John Fane seventh Earl of Westmorland petitioned Joseph Wilcocks, Bishop of Rochester for a faculty to demolish the old parish church of St Lawrence at Mereworth and build another a bit further away.' The bishop had his commis- sioners examine both the old church and the plans for the new stating that 'the said parish church of Mereworth is an antient building and is decaying and that the situation of it is most inconvenient being near the bounds of the parish on one side, and that the greater number of the parishioners dwell at a great distance from it, and that the said Earle is desirous to pull down the said old parish church of Mereworth and to build a new one in a more convenient place and make a new church yard and assure the ground to the said parish forever at his own proper costs and charges'. Following the commissioners' report the bishop concluded that as 'no detriment, inconvenience or disadvantage' would be suffered by the minis- ter, parishioners or inhabitants, notice should be given in the church of the earl's intentions and inform those present that 'there will be as sufficient and more con- venient room in the new church than there is now in the old'.2 Fane's apparent concern for the parishioners was in reality a thinly veiled excuse to get rid of a building which spoilt his view and which was the final phase in his redevelopment For Jack Lowe, Samuel Lowe and Ellie Wilson.
