Expressions of Sovereignty: Law and Authority in the Making of the Overseas British Empire, 1576-1640
EXPRESSIONS OF SOVEREIGNTY EXPRESSIONS OF SOVEREIGNTY: LAW AND AUTHORITY IN THE MAKING OF THE OVERSEAS BRITISH EMPIRE, 1576-1640 By KENNETH RICHARD MACMILLAN, M.A. A Thesis . Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University ©Copyright by Kenneth Richard MacMillan, December 2001 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (2001) McMaster University (History) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: Expressions of Sovereignty: Law and Authority in the Making of the Overseas British Empire, 1576-1640 AUTHOR: Kenneth Richard MacMillan, B.A. (Hons) (Nipissing University) M.A. (Queen's University) SUPERVISOR: Professor J.D. Alsop NUMBER OF PAGES: xi, 332 11 ABSTRACT .~. ~ This thesis contributes to the body of literature that investigates the making of the British empire, circa 1576-1640. It argues that the crown was fundamentally involved in the establishment of sovereignty in overseas territories because of the contemporary concepts of empire, sovereignty, the royal prerogative, and intemationallaw. According to these precepts, Christian European rulers had absolute jurisdiction within their own territorial boundaries (internal sovereignty), and had certain obligations when it carne to their relations with other sovereign states (external sovereignty). The crown undertook these responsibilities through various "expressions of sovereignty". It employed writers who were knowledgeable in international law and European overseas activities, and used these interpretations to issue letters patent that demonstrated both continued royal authority over these territories and a desire to employ legal codes that would likely be approved by the international community. The crown also insisted on the erection of fortifications and approved of the publication of semiotically charged maps, each of which served the function of showing that the English had possession and effective control over the lands claimed in North and South America, the North Atlantic, and the East and West Indies. -

DE PLAINES QUÉBEC Imprimerie de I'Action Sociale Limitée 1913 PRÉFACE âgé Monsieur le professeur Joseph Dumais, déjà avanta- geusement connu au Canada français et en Acadie, par ^ ses cours de diction française et par ses conférences pa- triotiques sur notre histoire, ne pouvait mieux commencer la série des publications du « Souvenir patriotique )) — une société qu'il a fondée et dont le beau nom dit le but excellent, — que par l'histoire, populaire et néanmoins assez riche d'érudition, des deux premiers héros de notre grande histoire. Il convenait, en effet, que le début de cette série fut consacré aux commencements mêmes de notre histoire, d'autant que ces commencements sont d'un intérêt tou- jours empoignant pour nous, et d'une grandeur de con- ception digne de toute admiration. La grandeur de l'histoire, comme d'ailleurs son intérêt, ne dépend pas en effet principalement des masses d'hom- mes qu'elle peut faire mouvoir dans le récit d'événements ordinaires, elle dépend plutôt de la grandeur morale des héros qu'elle met en mouvement, sous l'impulsion d'un puissant idéal, pour la réalisation d'une œuvre d'autant plus élevée et plus glorieuse qu'elle est plus ardue et plus périlleuse. -

Northeast Historical Archaeology/Vol. 41, 2012 1 The Seventeenth-Century Brewhouse and Bakery at Ferryland, Newfoundland Arthur R. Clausnitzer, Jr. and Barry C. Gaulton In 2001 archaeologists working at the 17th-century English settlement at Ferryland, Newfoundland, uncovered evidence of an early structure beneath a mid-to-late century gentry dwelling. A preliminary analysis of the architectural features and material culture from related deposits tentatively identified the structure as a brewhouse and bakery, likely the same “brewhouse room” mentioned in a 1622 letter from the colony. Further analysis of this material in 2010 confirmed the identification and dating of this structure. Comparison of the Ferryland brewhouse to data from both documentary and archaeological sources revealed some unusual features. When analyzed within the context of the original Calvert period settlement, these features provide additional evidence for the interpretation of the initial settlement at Ferryland not as a corporate colony such as Jamestown or Cupids, but as a small country manor home for George Calvert and his family. -

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] Celebrating the past: financial management in the third sectore Abstract The centrality of the mission, as opposed to the importance of fmancial outcomes, created many problems in the early financial management of third sector organisations. Thus, it is important to celebrate the contribution made by these early managers as they struggled to guide their organisation in a fiscally esponsibler manner. This paper has two parts. First, it considers the need for accountability from an internal organisational perspective and also as a response to the external demand for accountability. Secondly, it provides a case study of an eighty year old organisation whose early leaders were responsible for putting in place procedures which have allowed it to develop into a service organisation with a multimillion dollar turnover. The study presents incidents which demonstrate the development of fmancial management strategies, by providing a micro view of the evolution of a number of these processes, the factors which influenced their development, and the opposition their proponents encountered to their introduction.
