He said, “ This is a curious rock, I am afraid that it will give us trouble ,” and as he probed it a little further, he said, “ I believe that it contains minerals of some kind, and I believe that there is gold in these hills .” [p. 8]. “Just when we had got partly to work, here came Mr. Marshall with his old wool hat in hand, and stopped within six or eight yards of the saw pit, and exclaimed, “ Boys, I have got her now .” I, being the nearest to him, and having more curiosity than the rest of the men, jumped from the pit and stepped to him, and on looking in his hat discovered say ten or twelve pieces of small scales of what proved to be gold. I picked up the largest piece, worth about fifty cents, and tested it with my teeth, and as it did not give, I held it aloft and exclaimed, “ gold, boys, gold! ” [pp. 9-10]. Eberstadt calls this book “of vital historical importance being the only printed relation, aside from that of Marshall himself, by an eye-witness of and participant in the gold discovery. The narrative is that of the man who worked for months with Sutter and Marshall at the mill, and who was the first to proclaim the strange metal just found by Marshall to be gold. Brown was a member of the Mormon Battalion who had “crossed the plains and reached California early in 1847.” [Holliday sale] and credited the Mormons with constructing the mill and the subsequent discovery of the gold. Brown narrates an eyewitness account of a “memorable event,” the “discovery of the California gold at Capt. John A. Sutter and James W. Marshall’s sawmill, on American Fork River, California.” Howes notes that only “55 copies printed, by a co-worker with Marshall at the time of the discovery.” ☼ Eberstadt 28; Flake 899 104; Graff 425; Holliday Sale 134; Howes B848; Rocq 1809; Streeter Sale 3018; Wheat, California Gold Rush 22n.

    PROGRAM ABSTRACTS FOR THE 15TH TRIENNIAL SYMPOSIUM ON AFRICAN ART Africa and Its Diasporas in the Market Place: Cultural Resources and the Global Economy The core theme of the 2011 ACASA symposium, proposed by Pamela Allara, examines the current status of Africa’s cultural resources and the influence—for good or ill—of market forces both inside and outside the continent. As nation states decline in influence and power, and corporations, private patrons and foundations increasingly determine the kinds of cultural production that will be supported, how is African art being reinterpreted and by whom? Are artists and scholars able to successfully articulate their own intellectual and cultural values in this climate? Is there anything we can do to address the situation? WEDNESDAY, MARCH 23, 2O11, MUSEUM PROGRAM All Museum Program panels are in the Lenart Auditorium, Fowler Museum at UCLA Welcoming Remarks (8:30). Jean Borgatti, Steven Nelson, and Marla C. Berns PANEL I (8:45–10:45) Contemporary Art Sans Frontières. Chairs: Barbara Thompson, Stanford University, and Gemma Rodrigues, Fowler Museum at UCLA Contemporary African art is a phenomenon that transcends and complicates traditional curatorial categories and disciplinary boundaries. These overlaps have at times excluded contemporary African art from exhibitions and collections and, at other times, transformed its research and display into a contested terrain. At a moment when many museums with so‐called ethnographic collections are expanding their chronological reach by teasing out connections between traditional and contemporary artistic production, many museums of Euro‐American contemporary art are extending their geographic reach by globalizing their curatorial vision.

  • Selected Highlights of Women's History
    Selected Highlights of Women’s History United States & Connecticut 1773 to 2015 The Permanent Commission on the Status of Women omen have made many contributions, large and Wsmall, to the history of our state and our nation. Although their accomplishments are too often left un- recorded, women deserve to take their rightful place in the annals of achievement in politics, science and inven- Our tion, medicine, the armed forces, the arts, athletics, and h philanthropy. 40t While this is by no means a complete history, this book attempts to remedy the obscurity to which too many Year women have been relegated. It presents highlights of Connecticut women’s achievements since 1773, and in- cludes entries from notable moments in women’s history nationally. With this edition, as the PCSW celebrates the 40th anniversary of its founding in 1973, we invite you to explore the many ways women have shaped, and continue to shape, our state. Edited and designed by Christine Palm, Communications Director This project was originally created under the direction of Barbara Potopowitz with assistance from Christa Allard.

  • Burned to Be Wild: Science, Society, and Ecological Conservation In
    BURNED TO BE WILD: SCIENCE, SOCIETY, AND ECOLOGICAL CONSERVATION IN THE SOUTHERN LONGLEAF PINE by ALBERT GLOVER WAY (Under the Direction of Paul S. Sutter) ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the development of ecological conservation and science in the southern coastal plain’s dominant ecosystem – the longleaf pine-grassland forest. It examines how the impetus for conservation changed over the long twentieth-century from concerns over bodily health, landscape aesthetics, and recreation, into concerns for ecological integrity and landscape diversity, and argues that the biocentric turn in twentieth-century science and society was rooted in the very processes of production that it sought to moderate. To unearth this story, it focuses on the region surrounding Thomasville, Georgia and Tallahassee, Florida, known as the Red Hills, where wealthy northerners came after the Civil War and Reconstruction in search of health, and remained to convert failing farms and plantations into winter retreats and hunting preserves. In the years covered here, roughly 1880-1960, this land of wealth and poverty was a working landscape that produced a variety of goods and supported a large number of people; yet, at the same time it was a conservation landscape and laboratory where a great deal of scientific knowledge about the longleaf pine-grassland environment came to light. The central figure in this dissertation is Herbert L. Stoddard, an ornithologist, wildlife biologist, and ecological forester who came to the Red Hills in 1924 as an agent of the U.S. Bureau of the Biological Survey to examine the life history and preferred habitat of the bobwhite quail.

  • Sino-US Relations and Ulysses S. Grant's Mediation
    Looking for a Friend: Sino-U.S. Relations and Ulysses S. Grant’s Mediation in the Ryukyu/Liuqiu 琉球 Dispute of 1879 Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Chad Michael Berry Graduate Program in East Asian Studies The Ohio State University 2014 Thesis Committee: Christopher A. Reed, Advisor Robert J. McMahon Ying Zhang Copyright by Chad Michael Berry 2014 Abstract In March 1879, Japan announced the end of the Ryukyu (Liuqiu) Kingdom and the establishment of Okinawa Prefecture in its place. For the previous 250 years, Ryukyu had been a quasi-independent tribute-sending state to Japan and China. Following the arrival of Western imperialism to East Asia in the 19th century, Japan reacted to the changing international situation by adopting Western legal standards and clarifying its borders in frontier areas such as the Ryukyu Islands. China protested Japanese actions in Ryukyu, though Qing Dynasty (1644-1912) leaders were not willing to go to war over the islands. Instead, Qing leaders such as Li Hongzhang (1823-1901) and Prince Gong (1833-1898) sought to resolve the dispute through diplomatic means, including appeals to international law, rousing global public opinion against Japan, and, most significantly, requesting the mediation of the United States and former U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant (1822-1885). Initially, China hoped Grant’s mediation would lead to a restoration of the previous arrangement of Ryukyu being a dually subordinate kingdom to China and Japan. In later negotiations, China sought a three-way division of the islands among China, Japan, and Ryukyu.

Although early modern theologians and polemicists widely declared religious conformists to be shameless apostates, when we examine specific cases in context it becomes apparent that most individuals found ways to positively rationalize and justify their respective actions. This fraught history continued to have long-term effects on England’s religious, political, and intellectual culture.

  • Henriette Campan (1797–1824) : De L’Histoire D’Un Texte Au Sens D’Une Vie
    Geneviève Haroche-Bouzinac Orbis Linguarum vol. 50/2018, DOI: 10.23817/olin.50-16 Geneviève Haroche-Bouzinac (https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2668-1049) Universitéd’Orléans Henriette Campan (1797–1824) : de l’histoire d’un texte au sens d’une vie Lorsque l’on cherche à établir des distinctions entre les différents textes de type autobiographique, qu’ils s’intitulent Mémoires, Souvenirs, Confessions, ou encore Autobiographie, l’histoire du texte incite à la prudence et le cas des Mémoires de madame Campan en est un exemple1. Dans une lettre adressée à son ancienne élève, la duchesse de Saint-Leu, autrefois la reine Hortense, Henriette Campan écrivait en janvier 1820 : « Les souvenirs de notre siècle vaudront les fictions des autres. Bien savoir ce qui s’est passé, le confier avec fidélité au papier, c’est préparer pour ces temps de repos qui suivent les grandes et longues crises des lectures aussi instructives qu’intéressantes. Il y aura foule de ces sortes d’ouvrages. Bien peu passeront à la postérité2. » L’épistolière encourageait Hortense alors désireuse de raconter les événements de sa vie. Elle lui donnait des conseils de mise en forme : « Il faut que le spectateur dise : J’aivulapiècedespremièresloges,duparterreouduparadis. Le point de vue fait beaucoup pour l’entente de la scène. Quand on dit J’aiétéacteurdans cesmémorablesévénements, on est bien sûr d’intéresser encore plus3. Ces avis témoignent de la réflexion qui avait été la sienne comme mémorialiste. Cependant de son vivant madame Campan n’avait jamais publié de mémoires.

  • Utilitarianism in the Age of Enlightenment
    UTILITARIANISM IN THE AGE OF ENLIGHTENMENT This is the first book-length study of one of the most influential traditions in eighteenth-century Anglophone moral and political thought, ‘theological utilitarianism’. Niall O’Flaherty charts its devel- opment from its formulation by Anglican disciples of Locke in the 1730s to its culmination in William Paley’s work. Few works of moral and political thought had such a profound impact on political dis- course as Paley’s Principles of Moral and Political Philosophy (1785). His arguments were at the forefront of debates about the constitution, the judicial system, slavery and poverty. By placing Paley’s moral thought in the context of theological debate, this book establishes his genuine commitment to a worldly theology and to a programme of human advancement. It thus raises serious doubts about histories which treat the Enlightenment as an entirely secular enterprise, as well as those which see English thought as being markedly out of step with wider European intellectual developments. niall o’flaherty is a Lecturer in the History of European Political Thought at King’s College London. His research focuses on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century moral, political and religious thought in Britain. He has published articles on William Paley and Thomas Robert Malthus, and is currently writing a book entitled Malthus and the Discovery of Poverty. ideas in context Edited by David Armitage, Richard Bourke, Jennifer Pitts and John Robertson The books in this series will discuss the emergence of intellectual traditions and of related new disciplines. The procedures, aims and vocabularies that were generated will be set in the context of the alternatives available within the contemporary frameworks of ideas and institutions.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

  • This 2008 Letter
    The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of Canterbury & The Most Reverend and Right Hon the Lord Archbishop of York July, 2008 Most Reverend Fathers in God, We write as bishops, priests and deacons of the Provinces of Canterbury and York, who have sought, by God’s grace, in our various ministries, to celebrate the Sacraments and preach the Word faithfully; to form, nurture and catechise new Christians; to pastor the people of God entrusted to our care; and, through the work of our dioceses, parishes and institutions, to build up the Kingdom and to further God’s mission to the world in this land. Our theological convictions, grounded in obedience to Scripture and Tradition, and attentive to the need to discern the mind of the whole Church Catholic in matters touching on Faith and Order, lead us to doubt the sacramental ministry of those women ordained to the priesthood by the Church of England since 1994. Having said that, we have engaged with the life of the Church of England in a myriad of ways, nationally and locally, and have made sincere efforts to work courteously and carefully with those with whom we disagree. In the midst of this disagreement over Holy Order, we have, we believe, borne particular witness to the cause of Christian unity, and to the imperative of Our Lord’s command that ‘all may be one.’ We include those who have given many years service to the Church in the ordained ministry, and others who are very newly ordained. We believe that we demonstrate the vitality of the tradition which we represent and which has formed us in our discipleship and ministry – a tradition which, we believe, constitutes an essential and invaluable part of the life and character of the Church of England, without which it would be deeply impoverished.
