  • The Ionian Islands in British Official Discourses; 1815-1864
    1 Constructing Ionian Identities: The Ionian Islands in British Official Discourses; 1815-1864 Maria Paschalidi Department of History University College London A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy to University College London 2009 2 I, Maria Paschalidi, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract Utilising material such as colonial correspondence, private papers, parliamentary debates and the press, this thesis examines how the Ionian Islands were defined by British politicians and how this influenced various forms of rule in the Islands between 1815 and 1864. It explores the articulation of particular forms of colonial subjectivities for the Ionian people by colonial governors and officials. This is set in the context of political reforms that occurred in Britain and the Empire during the first half of the nineteenth-century, especially in the white settler colonies, such as Canada and Australia. It reveals how British understandings of Ionian peoples led to complex negotiations of otherness, informing the development of varieties of colonial rule. Britain suggested a variety of forms of government for the Ionians ranging from authoritarian (during the governorships of T. Maitland, H. Douglas, H. Ward, J. Young, H. Storks) to representative (under Lord Nugent, and Lord Seaton), to responsible government (under W. Gladstone’s tenure in office). All these attempted solutions (over fifty years) failed to make the Ionian Islands governable for Britain. The Ionian Protectorate was a failed colonial experiment in Europe, highlighting the difficulties of governing white, Christian Europeans within a colonial framework.

It would not have been possible without the generous assistance of the libraries and archives I visited, in both the United States and the United Kingdom. However, without the support of the history department and Florida State University, I would not have been able to complete the project. My advisor, Charles Upchurch encouraged me to broaden my understanding of the British Empire, which led to my decision to study Charles Gordon. Dr. Upchurch‘s constant urging for me to push my writing and theoretical understanding of imperialism further, led to a much stronger dissertation than I could have ever produced on my own.

  • Le Voyage De Sparte
    Maurice Barrès Le voyage de Sparte 2003 - Reservados todos los derechos Permitido el uso sin fines comerciales Maurice Barrès Le voyage de Sparte pIII à madame la comtesse De Noailles née princesse De Brancovan madame, en quittant le rivage où respirèrent Iphigénie et Antigone, quel délice de trouver au front d' une jeune vivante les grâces flexibles et l' étincelle de l' Ionie ! C' est que, jadis, vous avez vécu dans l' érechthéion avec les jeunes filles qu' on nommait " les porteuses de rosée " . On vous entrevoit, dans la procession, qui tenez de vos deux mains le voile d' Athéna ; et les jeunes gens de Platon vous ont appelée : ma soeur. Quand les acropoles cessèrent de porter leurs fruits particuliers et redevinrent des rochers stériles auprès de la mer, vous ne vous êtes pas couchée dans le sable des morts avec les figurines d' argile. Vous avez vécu dans pIV Byzance, d' où votre ancêtre nous apporta le trésor des lettres antiques. Toute la suite des voyageurs ont vu les jeunes phanariotes chanter, danser et pleurer sous les vergers de la mer Noire. Mais votre nom paternel évoque l' effort des vieilles races pour s' affranchir de la Babel ottomane. Obscurs frissons, fièvres royales, quel beau livre on pourrait écrire avec l' histoire d' une goutte de sang grec ! Hier enfin, vous êtes venue, du Danube comme Ronsard, et de Byzance comme Chénier, nous offrir toute vive, mais attendrie par des siècles d' exil, cette délicatesse grecque dont les archéologues ne nous donnent qu' une idée languissante. Vos poèmes remplissent de plaisir nos débutants et nos maîtres.

THE LA "\V RELATING TO OFFICERS IN THE AR~IY. BY HARRIS PRENDERGAST, OF LINCOLN'S INN, ESQ., BARRISTER-AT-LAW. REVISE!) EPITION. LONDON: PARKER, FURNIV ALL, AND PARKER, MILITARY LIBRARY, WHITEHALL. MDCCCLV. LONDON': PRINTED BY GEORGE PHIPPS, RA..~ELJ.GH STREET, EATON SQUARE, PREFACE TO FIRST EDITION. THE preparation of the following Work was sug­ gested by my brother, Lieutenant William Grant Prendergast, of the 8th Bengal Cavalry*, Persian Interpreter on the Staff of Lord Gough, Commander­ in-chief in India ; and from the same quarter much valuable assistance was originally derived, both as to the selection of topics, and the mode of treating them. Without the help of such military guidance, a mere civilian would have laboured under great disadvantages; and the merit, if any, of the Work, is therefore attributable to my coadjutor alone. For the composition, however, I am alone responsible. Officers in the Army are subject to a variety of special laws and legal· principles, which deeply affect their professional and private rights; and it is hoped that a Work, which endeavours to develope these subjects in a connected and untechnical form, will not be deemed a superfluous contribution to military literature. With this view, the following pages are by no means so much addressed to lawyers, as to a class of readers whose opportunities of access to legal publications are necessarily very limited; and care has been taken, in all · cases of importance, to set • Now Brevet-1\lfaj~r, and Acting Brigadier on the frontier of the Punjab.

  • Les Candidatures De Zola À L'académie Française : Une
    Les candidatures de Zola à l’Académie française : une obstination significative Paul ARON FNRS-Université Libre de Bruxelles Au XIXe siècle, l’Académie française reste un passage très fréquenté par les écrivains désireux d’accéder à la légitimité littéraire. La génération romantique y est bien représentée, du moins pour ceux qui ont pratiqué les genres traditionnels de l’art oratoire, du théâtre et de la poésie. Les romanciers, comme Balzac ou Stendhal, en sont absents, mais les auteurs de théâtre mondain, les poètes parnassiens et les romanciers psychologues de la fin du siècle ont pour la plupart posé leur candidature. L’Académie est une instance littéraire hétéronome, parce qu’elle ne comprend pas que des écrivains. Son recrutement met tantôt en valeur les qualités mondaines ou patriotiques des candidats, tantôt la manière dont ils usent de la langue française. Mais y accéder peut être vécu comme une sanction sociétale de la valeur littéraire, une consécration du rôle public de l’écrivain. Au XXe siècle, cette sanction apparaît comme obsolète. Ni les surréalistes, ni les nouveaux romanciers, ni les grands auteurs de l’entre-deux-guerres, Gide, Céline, Aragon ou Malraux, ne seront académiciens. Les avant-gardes ont totalement tourné le dos à l’Académie, et c’est par dérision que Tzara peut proclamer : « Il y a un fait connu : on ne trouve plus des dadaïstes qu’à l’Académie française1. » Il faudra attendre la seconde après-guerre pour qu’une forme de lien se renoue entre l’institution et la littérature vivante, dont profiteront Ionesco (élu en 1970) ou Assia Djebar (2005).

  • Military Themes in British Painting 1815 - 1914
    / Military Themes in British Painting 1815 - 1914. Joan Winifred Martin Hichberger. Submission fcr PhD. University College, London. 1985 1 Abstract. Joan Winifred Martin Hichberger. Military Themes in British Painting 1815-1914. This thesis examines the treatment of the Bzitish Army and military themes, in painting, during the period 1815- 1914. All the works discussed were exhibited at the Royal Academy, which, although it underwent modifications in status, remained the nearest equivalent to a State Institution for Art in Britain. All the paintings shown there were painted with the knowledge that they were to be seen by the controllers of the Academy and the dominant classes of society. It will be inferred then, that the paintings shown there may be taken to have been acceptable to ruling class ideologies, and are therefore instructive of "official" attitudes to military art. Representations of the contemporary Army, in this period, fell into two main catagories - battle paintings and genre depictions of soldiers. Chapters one to three survey battle paintings; studying the relation of this genre to the Academy; the relative popularity of the genre and the career patterns of its practioners. The critical reception of battle pictures at the Academy and certain important public competitions will be noted and considered in the context of contemporary ideologies about art and about the Army and its men. Chapter four discusses the vital concept of "heroism" and its treatment in English military art. In particular, the reasons for the popularity of certain military figures above their peers, in academic art, will be explored. It will be argued that the process of "hero-making" in art was not determined by professional success alone, but was often the result of the intervention of patrons, publicists and pressure groups.
