  • William Colenso's Māori-English Lexicon
    William Colenso’s Māori-English Lexicon by Charlotte Frances Thompson Darling A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Victoria University of Wellington (2018) 1 Abstract William Colenso, one of Victorian New Zealand’s most accomplished polymaths, is remembered best as a printer, a defrocked missionary, botanist, and politician. Up till now, his role as a lexicographer has been largely neglected. His major biographies touch only briefly on his attempt to compile a Māori- English dictionary while Colenso himself spent 30 years on this project. His Lexicon, published the year before his death, is only the incomplete letter A of Māori to English and a handful of pages of English to Māori. The neglect by Colenso’s biographers is a surprising omission given the length of time Colenso spent on his Lexicon, the amount of extant material that relates to it, and the richness of the Lexicon itself as a resource. This thesis asks what William Colenso’s Maori-English Lexicon contribute to our understanding of Colenso’s life, and about the history of language in New Zealand? In chapter one, a brief outline of Colenso’s roles as a missionary, a botanist, a school inspector and a politician establish important biographical context for considering his attempt to compile a Lexicon. The main resource drawn upon is the 30 years’ worth of correspondence between Colenso and the New Zealand government relating to the Lexicon, which affords an overview of the project. The Lexicon itself is a rich resource.

  • Walter Mantell, Geraldine Jewsbury, and Race Relations in New Zealand
    Walter Mantell, Geraldine Jewsbury, and Race Relations in New Zealand INCLUDED in the large collection of letters to and from the New Zealand poli- tician Walter Mantell, in the Mantell Papers in the Alexander Turnbull Library, is a sequence of over 500 letters from the English novelist and critic Geraldine Jewsbury (1812-80). The two had met early in 1856 through her close friends Thomas and Jane Carlyle, and by the following year were seeing and/or corresponding with each other almost daily. In fact Jewsbury eventually fell in love with Mantell, eight years her junior, and as he did not reciprocate her affection, her letters in the months preceding his departure for New Zealand in October 1859 were desperately passionate. Nevertheless they finally reached some kind of understanding, and continued to write to each other, if rather more temperately and rather less frequently. Jewsbury's last letter was written in April 1880, only months before her death.1 One result of their close relationship was that Mantell led Jewsbury to share his strong concern over the British colonists' treatment of the Maori in New Zealand. Having originally settled in New Zealand in 1840 at the age of 19, Mantell had come back to England in 1855 to attempt to get the British government to rectify what he saw as injustices done to the Maori by the New Zealand government. His efforts proved both fruitless and distressing, so Jewsbury's interest in the subject and sympathy with his views were very welcome. They even wrote to each other under Maori names, she being 'Manu' (bird) and he 'Matara' (a transliteration of 'Mantell').

  • Charles Lyell to GA Mantell [ 5 February 1837 ]
    147 Charles Lyell to G. A. Mantell [ 5 February 1837 ] My dear Mantell As soon as I received your letter I wrote to Sir John Herschell mentioning of course that I was not personally acquainted with Lieut Thomas but saying what you had said in favour of him & about him. His being an officer of Artillery is of itself a guarantee, at the same time then considering how many interruptions of the kind I know that Sir J. has, at the Cape, I told him fairly that there were very few for whom I would have done the service except for yourself, for I scarcely ever before ventured to introduce any one to any one, not being myself personally acquainted.1 I sent the letter to the address you mentioned & begged for an acknowledgement but have received none so I hope there is no mistake. I put 54 Harley St. & the M.P.’s name as directed, & had it miscarried I presume it would have been returned. Mr [Host?]2 brother-in-law of Murchison has I find been under your treatment & I was glad to hear that you had had much business at Brighton. He was afraid you were beginning to have the influenza yourself but I trust you escaped & have reaped the harvest which medical men are gathering in here. We have scarcely suffered but my clerk has been & is very ill. I am finishing my Anniversary Address for the 17th. inst. & shall tell you what Darwin has done in S. America. We have given 2 medals one to Capt.

  • Hon. Walter Baldock D. Mantell, F.G.S. Born in 1820
    Obituary—Hon. Walter Baldock D. Mantell, F.G.8. 239 In this paper the author discusses the new evidence respecting the palasontology of the Lower Cretaceous and Upper Jurassic deposits of Russia which has come to light since the publication by himself and Mr. Lamplugh of " Les Argiles de Speeton etleurs Equivalents " (Moscow, 1892). He is now enabled to fix with certainty the zones of HopJites Riasensis and Olcostephanus hoplitoides of the provinces of Riasan and Simbirsk, and is thus in a position to correct and complete his former classification of the Upper Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous rocks of Russia, and to define more strictly their relationship to the equivalent strata of other countries. The whole of the Petchorian Series—that is, the zones of Ammonites stenomphalus and Amm. Keyserlingi—is now regarded as Lower Neocomian of a hitherto unknown boreal type, notwith- standing the affinity of its fauna with that of the underlying Jurassic (Aquilonian) strata. The author is thus led to carry up into the Cretaceous the corresponding stages in Western Europe, including the upper part of the zone of Belemnites lateralis of Speeton and Lincolnshire, the Upper Berriasian of South-eastern France, and probably the Hils Beds of Germany, instead of classing these with the Jurassic as he had previously done. A table is given in which the detailed correlation of the rocks between the Kimeridgian and the Aptian of the various regions is attempted. The comparison of the beds of England and Germany with those of Russia is supported by some new evidence based on the Ancellce, four species of which are described as occurring in the Claxby Ironstone and Spilsby Sandstone of Lincolnshire.

  • Charles Lyell and Gideon Mantell, 1821 - 1852: Their Quest for Elite Status in English Geology
    CHARLES LYELL AND GIDEON MANTELL, 1821 - 1852: THEIR QUEST FOR ELITE STATUS IN ENGLISH GEOLOGY. Alan John Wennerbom A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Unit for the History University of Sydney and Philosophy of Science May 1999 SYNOPSIS An analysis of the correspondence between Charles Lyell and Gideon Mantell from 1821 to 1852, in conjunction with other manuscript material, highlights the contrasting backgrounds and geological careers of the two men. It is also characterised by two underlying themes: the nature and timing of their geological work; and the influence of various social factors on their career plans and desire to achieve high social and scientific status. In turn, these points raise several wider issues and inter-related questions concerning the following aspects of English geology in the first half of the nineteenth century. · When, why and how did an elite group of geologists emerge in England during this period? Who were its members and what were their characteristics in common? · What was the nature and scope of the geological work carried out by the identified elite? In what way did it differ from Mantell’s? · What social and other barriers did Mantell encounter in his search for scientific and social status? What were the critical factors? In this thesis these issues are examined on a decade-by-decade basis, in three main chapters, as a prelude to examining the central question of why Mantell, unlike Lyell, did not achieve the status of an elite geologist. First, an elite group of English geologists is identified through a series of prosopographic and ‘screening’ analyses of all members of council of the Geological Society of London (GSL).
