Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract: Name of Candidate: Latham, Thomas Edward Mere Title of Thesis: ‘The Body Politic and the Family Quarrel: The War of American Independence, Metaphor and Visual Imagery in Britain’ Text: The thesis examines images produced in Great Britain between c. 1765 and 1789, and relates them to general concerns about the relationship between Britain and the thirteen colonies on the Atlantic seaboard of North America that declared their independence in 1776. Anglo-American conflict in this period was frequently conceptualized through metaphors that imagined events as an attack on the body politic or a quarrel within the wider British family. The thesis is concerned with the connections between these metaphors through artists’ embodiments of Great Britain and her colonies, principally as Britannia and an American Indian, and the ways in which they were contextualized by contemporary social, political and cultural experience. The various gender and generational permutations of the conflict metaphorized as a family quarrel relate the colonial relationship to wider contemporary concerns about the relationships between parents and children. Similarly the figurative division of the transatlantic community was imagined as the literal dismemberment of the British body politic, and contextualized through medical discourse and practice. As a civil war the conflict was often conceptualised as a quarrel between male members of the family or a culinary attack on the colonial body politic. The entry of the European powers to the conflict seems to have brought about a trend away from the conceptualization of the war as a family quarrel. The entry of Spain to the war in 1779 destabilized this metaphor’s narrative and gradually caused it to be replaced with other figures revealing a switch in perception from civil war to a more traditional view relating to the balance of power within Europe. Furthermore, the thesis suggests that the Franco-American treaties of 1778 and resultant military alliance were significant steps in the process whereby Anglo-American colonists came to be regarded as foreigners rather than fellow Britons.

They showed interest in my research, encouraged me to take risks, pulled me back from taking the wrong risks, suggested possible lines of research and prevented me from making some rather obvious mistakes (any remaining mistakes are my own). The staff of the History and History of Art Departments at University College London in general deserve some thanks for putting up with my loitering in their corridors for more than four years (especially Dr Claire Wilkinson, Dr Tom Gretton, Professor Helen Weston, and Diana Dethloff). Prior to that, the same would be true of the History of Art departments at the University of Leicester (Carol Charles, Professor Phillip Lindley, Nicholas Watson, Professor Alison Yarrington, Dr Thomas Frangenberg and Dr Geoff Quilley) and Aarhus Universitet, Denmark (Lars Kiel Bertelsen and Maria Fabricius Hansen). The other postgraduate students at UCL have been a constant source of support and challenging ideas, in particular I owe much to those whose areas of interest overlap chronologically with my own: Dr Richard Clay, Dr Richard Taws, Sue Walker, Zoe Kahr, Mercedes Ceron-Pefia and Emily Richardson. I would especially like to thank Emily for looking after things whenever I was in America conducting my research, and for being such a good listener. Material and ideas from chapter five were previously published in the journal OBJECT, and I would like to thank the editors for their many helpful suggestions, as well as the external validator Gill Perry. 6 I would like to thank Dr Emma Barker for her comments at my upgrade seminar, as well as those in attendance who were both encouraging and challenging. Similarly, I would like to thank Professors Diana Donald and William Vaughan for agreeing to be my final examiners. A variety of conferences and institutions allowed me the opportunity to test out some of the ideas and material in this thesis before finally committing everything to the printer, and I thank them and the audiences who made such helpful comments. The Arts and Humanities Research Board awarded me funds in order to pursue both my master and doctoral studies for which I am extremely grateful. A number of institutions in the United States of America also kindly awarded me with fellowships to enable me to travel and use their collections. I spent a very enjoyable month in 2003 at the Lewis Walpole Library in Farmington, Connecticut, and I would like to thank Maggie Powell, Susan Walker, Marielle Mudgett-Olson, Cindy Roman, Lenore Rouse, Anna Malicka and Jim Cassidy, as well as the other fellows in residence in August 2003 Karen Junod and Dr Luisa Cale. As well as being a valuable resource in its own right, the Paul Mellon Centre in London provided me with a fellowship that enabled me to spend three months based at the Yale Center for British Art in New Haven, Connecticut. Many people provided help, advice and suggestions during my stay there, including Julia Alexander, Julia Hyde, Susan Brady, Lori Misura, Phil Basner, Diana Donald, Marcia Pointon and Jason Schron. The John D. Rockefeller Jr., Library (part of the Colonial Williamsburg Foundation) gave me a fellowship enabling me to use their collection for a month in 2005, and thanks are due to Inge Flester, Margaret Pritchard, Laura Barry, Gail Greve and Jim Horn. Thanks to a Batten Fellowship from the International Center for Jefferson Studies at Monticello, Virginia, I was able to spend March 2005 based at the Jefferson Library. I would like to thank everyone there, but especially Andrew O’ Shaughnessy, Sanders Goodrich, Anna Berkes and Eleanor Sparagna. I also owe thanks to Paul Babbitt at the University of Virginia, who helped me through an increasingly complicated US visa application process. The Maryland Historical Society awarded me a Lord Baltimore Fellowship to visit their collection in Baltimore, Maryland, in April 2005 and to use their H. Furlong Library Baldwin library. I would like to thank all the staff there who offered assistance and suggestions,

  • John the Painter
    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY VOLUME LXIII JANUARY, 1939 NUMBER ONE John the Painter HIS is the tale of an aberrated Scotsman who stepped momen- tarily into the spotlight of history during the American Revo- Tlution, and, for a brief, fantastic space, sent shivers rippling along the spines of Lord North's cabinet, and spread consternation throughout the length and breadth of merry England. He was born plain James Aitken, an unprepossessing infant in the brood of an indigent Edinburgh blacksmith. Dangling from a gibbet in Ports- mouth town, he departed this life, in 1777, famous or infamous, as John the Painter. Twice James Aitken's crimes flared red on the British horizon—an incendiary whose distorted mind interpreted the torch of liberty as literal rather than allegoric -y who set himself, single-handed, to destroy the might of the king's navy. Boasting him- self an agent of the American Congress, this insignificant little Scottish zealot, ere his destructive path ended, had burned to the ground his majesty's rope house in the Portsmouth navy yard, and had started two alarming, if not serious, fires in busy Bristol. Harken, then, to the tale of James Aitken, alias James Hill, other- wise James Hinde, commonly called, as the old court record set forth, John the Painter. Silas Deane's French servant probably eyed with repugnance the shabby little man, who, for the third time, was insisting upon an 2 WILLIAM BELL CLARK January audience with his employer.

  • DATES of TRIALS Until October 1775, and Again from December 1816
    DATES OF TRIALS Until October 1775, and again from December 1816, the printed Proceedings provide both the start and the end dates of each sessions. Until the 1750s, both the Gentleman’s and (especially) the London Magazine scrupulously noted the end dates of sessions, dates of subsequent Recorder’s Reports, and days of execution. From December 1775 to October 1816, I have derived the end dates of each sessions from newspaper accounts of the trials. Trials at the Old Bailey usually began on a Wednesday. And, of course, no trials were held on Sundays. ***** NAMES & ALIASES I have silently corrected obvious misspellings in the Proceedings (as will be apparent to users who hyper-link through to the trial account at the OBPO), particularly where those misspellings are confirmed in supporting documents. I have also regularized spellings where there may be inconsistencies at different appearances points in the OBPO. In instances where I have made a more radical change in the convict’s name, I have provided a documentary reference to justify the more marked discrepancy between the name used here and that which appears in the Proceedings. ***** AGE The printed Proceedings almost invariably provide the age of each Old Bailey convict from December 1790 onwards. From 1791 onwards, the Home Office’s “Criminal Registers” for London and Middlesex (HO 26) do so as well. However, no volumes in this series exist for 1799 and 1800, and those for 1828-33 inclusive (HO 26/35-39) omit the ages of the convicts. I have not comprehensively compared the ages reported in HO 26 with those given in the Proceedings, and it is not impossible that there are discrepancies between the two.

  • Minting America: Coinage and the Contestation of American Identity, 1775-1800
    ABSTRACT MINTING AMERICA: COINAGE AND THE CONTESTATION OF AMERICAN IDENTITY, 1775-1800 by James Patrick Ambuske “Minting America” investigates the ideological and culture links between American identity and national coinage in the wake of the American Revolution. In the Confederation period and in the Early Republic, Americans contested the creation of a national mint to produce coins. The catastrophic failure of the paper money issued by the Continental Congress during the War for Independence inspired an ideological debate in which Americans considered the broader implications of a national coinage. More than a means to conduct commerce, many citizens of the new nation saw coins as tangible representations of sovereignty and as a mechanism to convey the principles of the Revolution to future generations. They contested the physical symbolism as well as the rhetorical iconology of these early national coins. Debating the stories that coinage told helped Americans in this period shape the contours of a national identity.

Autonomy and the Thirteen Colonies: Was the American Revolution Really Necessary?* Robert A. Friedlander** Nothing better illustrates the almost insurmountable difficulties faced by modern pluralistic societies in dealing with recalcitrant minorities on the transnational level than the futile attempts to grant autonomy to dissident populations.1 It has been particularly frustrating for democratic regimes when minority rejectionists have turned to terror-violence as their ultimate political weapon, with Ireland, Spain, and Israel the preeminent contemporary examples. The Northern Irish Parliament is indefinitely suspended,2 home rule has failed to end Basque extremism,'. and the Camp David accords face an uncertain future.' In each case, autonomy has been the chosen method of conflict- resolution and despite offers of-or attempts at-self-government, con- flict continues. Throughout modern history in both theory and practice, autonomy has been at best inherently suspect. In those few historical instances when it was actually attempted, autonomy either worked very badly or not at all.

  • William Franklin “Frank” Oldham by Toby Echelberry on February 18
    William Franklin “Frank” Oldham By Toby Echelberry On February 18, 1868 history was being made where the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors met to discuss the Incorporation of a new town in the southernmost part of the County to be called Gilroy. Among those signing the petition submitted on February 6th of the same year was a man named William Franklin “Frank” Oldham who would eventually become the one of first Town Trustees to establish the legislative framework of Gilroy. Frank was born on December 16, 1826 in the Greenville District of South Carolina to Garland Oldham and Nancy Stone as the second born of four siblings. The other siblings were Thomas (born 1825), Mary “Polly” Ann (born 1831) and Melissa (born 1883). Frank’s paternal grandfather was Major George Oldham, a Patriot Leader from North Carolina. George Oldham was only a private in the Northern Orange County Regiment of Militia in 1776. George not only had the passion to fight for the freedom of a new nation, but demonstrated himself as being one who had great military prose. George quickly was promoted to Ensign later that year and by 1779 was appointed the rank of Lieutenant in the Caswell County Regiment of Militia and eventually by 1783 to the rank of Colonel. On September 9, 1776, the Provincial Congress had authorized thirty-five County Militia forces to be organized. One of which was the Orange County Regiment of Militia with the original officers in command being Colonel John Hogan, Lieutenant Colonel John Butler, 1st Major William Moore and 2nd Major Nathaniel Rochester.
