Historiography, Gender and Identity in the Works of Anna Eliza Bray This study addresses the writings of Anna Eliza Bray in three different areas, which illustrate her main literary interests: her autobiographical works, her travel writing and her contribution to the historical romance. I begin with an examination of Bray’s autobiography, exploring the ways in which the editorial processes reduced Bray’s three volume manuscript to one, and examining how socially constructed gender roles impacted on Bray’s construction of her own public image and the image constructed for her by the male members of her family. I also examine how Bray appropriates the language and devices of fiction to idealise the past and as a form of concealment. Finally Chapter One explores Bray’s desire to memorialise the past, which includes her own. Chapter Two addresses the development of travel writing after the resumption of continental travel following Waterloo. The changing epistemological conventions in historiography and travel writing provided opportunities for women to publish works on continental journeys and thereby address a real lack of published works by women in that genre. Bray’s work comprised a collection of letters to her mother which allowed her to inscribe the publication within a domestic framework and a female discourse of family relations. Within this frame, however, Bray addresses some political issues on revolution, conservation and gender politics, concerns that become central to her romances. In order to establish some of Bray’s stylistic strategies I make a detailed textual analysis of her work and that of Helen Maria Williams. The fact that Williams and Bray both wrote about Rouen, but with a very different style and perspective serves to identify aspects of style and ideology that are specific to Bray. The final two chapters focus on Bray’s historical romances. I choose to separate these into two sections, the early romances set in France and Flanders during the fourteenth century, and her later regional romances set in Devon and Cornwall. These works fall neatly into two types, those that are largely lifted from Froissart, and those which Bray deems original, that deal specifically with local history and tradition. In Chapter Three I examine how the changing epistemological conventions noted above impacted on Bray’s as a writer whose subjects are history and antiquarian studies, but I also examine how Bray appropriated her subject matter to suit a personal and political agenda, using the Middle Ages as a model for what she believed would be a more desirable society, a belief that was commensurate with the nineteenth century political belief in paternalism. I also examine how Bray appropriated this period to re-vision and control her own history. As in her travel work Bray inscribes her political comment in a domestic framework of family relations, a model which she develops in her local romances, which I argue in Chapter Four, can be read as examples of an English national tale. 4 DECLARATION No portion of the work referred to in the thesis has been submitted in support of an application for another degree or qualification of this or any other university or other institute of learning.

Finally I would like to thank Peter Wilkinson, the archivist at West Sussex Records Office, for kindly opening the sewn sections of Bray’s manuscript, without his co-operation I would have been unable to pursue my line of enquiry for Chapter One. 7 A Woman’s History: an Introduction. My first introduction to the writings of Anna Eliza Bray was through her marginalia, in this case her annotations to a five-volume edition of Amelia Opie’s tales, published in 1846-7. Volume one of this collection has Bray’s name and address on the front endpaper, with the date 1851, suggesting they were from her extensive library where, as John Kempe notes in his introduction to Bray’s Autobiography , ‘not a book was uncut, or unmarked by her appreciative pencil’ ( A. p. 17), a statement supported by the fact that every one of these five volumes is carefully sidelined. Sometimes her markings are further referenced on the back endpapers of each volume, where she gives the page number, and a brief note on the theme or a personal response to the content. One significant passage was from Opie’s tale ‘The Mysterious Stranger’. It referred to an ‘ exemplary wife, and well principled widow, who had borne her husband’s faults, while living with dignified and affectionate forbearance, [...] screen[ing] his memory from reproach’(p. 100). 1 This whole section is sidelined and on the back endpaper Bray writes what appears to be ‘like’, although the final ‘e’ runs into a long wavy line which finishes as a dash.

  • College History.Pdf
    Exeter College OXFORD Exeter College, Oxford xeter College takes its name not from a man but from a diocese. Its founder, Walter de E Stapeldon, bishop of Exeter, was born about 1266, probably at the hamlet which still bears his name, near Holsworthy, in the remote country of north-west Devon. His family, moderately well-to-do farmers, too grand for peasants and too humble for gentry, had long been prominent in the social life of their locality, but they carried no weight in the county and had probably never been beyond its boundaries. From these unprivileged origins Walter de Stapeldon rose to become not only a bishop but also the treasurer of England, the confidant of King Edward II and eventually the victim of Edward’s enemies. The obscurity of Exeter College his family circumstances makes it impossible to trace the early stages in this adventurous career. We know seen from Turl only that he was an Oxford graduate, rector of Aveton Giffard in South Devon during the 1290s, canon of Street Exeter Cathedral by 1301 and precentor of the Cathedral by 1305. After his election as bishop in 1308 he made rapid progress in the king’s service as a diplomat, archivist and financial expert; and it was his position near the centre of power in a particularly oppressive government which cost him his life in 1326, when Edward II lost his throne and Stapeldon his head. When in 1314 he established Stapeldon Hall, as the College was first known, the bishop’s motives were doubtless mixed: piety, the safety of his soul, and the education of the prospective clergy of his diocese were probably his chief concerns.

We may wonder what compelled women to write their life histories. Some autobiographies were crafted by experienced writers with the intention of publication. Others were by less experienced writers, and intended only for private reading by family and friends. For some it was to relate a particular personal experience, and for others to retell their involvement in a movement or activity. From these first-hand accounts much information can be learned. For example, recollections of a family history can reveal differing regional cultures. Childhood memories frequently recall the inequalities between brothers and sisters, particularly in relation to education; the different types of work undertaken by women, and the wages they received; the numbers of women involved in voluntary work for which no official records were held; private thoughts relating to marriage, spinsterhood and romance. These autobiographies also reveal women’s aspirations in life: socially what was expected of them, and privately what they felt they should aspire to. Women in Context: Two Hundred Years of British Women Autobiographers: A Reference Guide and Reader by Barbara Penny Kanner (G K Hall & Co, 1997) provides students with a structured overview of more than 1,000 women’s autobiographical texts from the 1720s through two hundred years.

The proliferation of such studies has made. it ever more difficult to retain a sense of the particularity of the Enlightenment and a grasp of its synergy. The situation has been long in the making and is associated with the success of the International Society for Eighteenth-Century Studies and of the Studies on Voltaire and the Eighteenth-Century. Some time ago John Lough in an illuminating article made a plea for a return to an older 'history of thought' pattern of study. For all its attractions that would hardly solve the problem of defining Enlightenment and locating it within eighteenth-century culture and society.
