Desire for Perpetuation: Fairy Writing and Re-creation of National Identity in the Narratives of Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang Yuki Yoshino A Thesis Submitted to The University of Edinburgh for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English Literature 2013 Abstract This thesis argues that ‘fairy writing’ in the nineteenth-century Scottish literature serves as a peculiar site which accommodates various, often ambiguous and subversive, responses to the processes of constructing new national identities occurring in, and outwith, post-union Scotland. It contends that a pathetic sense of loss, emptiness and absence, together with strong preoccupations with the land, and a desire to perpetuate the nation which has become state-less, commonly underpin the wide variety of fairy writings by Walter Scott, John Black, James Hogg and Andrew Lang.

Test Your Faerie Knowledge
Spiderwick Tes t Your Activity Sheet Faerie Knowledge It wasn’t all that long ago that faeries were regarded as the substance of the imagination. Boggarts, Elves, Dragons, Ogres . mankind scoffed at the idea that such fantastical beings could exist at all, much less inhabit the world around us. Of course, that was before Simon & Schuster published Arthur Spiderwick’s Field Guide to the Fantastical World Around You. Now, we all know that faeries truly do exist. They’re out there, occasionally helping an unwary human, but more often causing mischief and playing tricks. How much do you know about the Invisible World? Have you studied up on your faerie facts? Put your faerie knowledge to the test and see how well you do in the following activities.When you’re ﬁnished, total up your score and see how much you really know. SCORING: 1-10 POINTS: Keep studying. In the meantime, you should probably steer clear of faeries of any kind. 11-20 POINTS: Pretty good! You might be able to trick a pixie, but you couldn’t fool a phooka. 21-30 POINTS: Wow, You’re almost ready to tangle with a troll! 31-39 POINTS: Impressive! You seem to know a lot about the faerie world —perhaps you’re a changeling... 40 POINTS: Arthur Spiderwick? Is that you?

Part Two 1914 -1938 Part Two 1914 - 1938
Part Two 1914 -1938 Part Two 1914 - 1938 Childhood and Families Alan Brind My granddad was Herbert Allen (Jack) Laxton 1884 – 1936. He married Eva Whitear from Titchfield in 1913 and they lived at 81 West St. Titchfield. Jack served for 24 years in the 108th Heavy Battery Royal Garrison Artillery which, as Sergeant, he left in 1926. He was a horseman par excellence and served the whole of WW1 in France and Belgium coming through numerous engagements uninjured. He was awarded a Mons Star with Clasp and Roses, British Army War Medal and Victory Medals. He left the army in 1926 and became a bricklayer and worked on the building of Titchfield Primary School and also the Embassy and Savoy cinemas in Fareham. It was ironic that despite having worked with horses throughout his army career, he died, aged 52, following an infection due to a bite from a horse fly. Donald Upshall As I was the first grandchild in the Upshall family I was named after my uncle who was killed in WW1. If you look in the church you will see his name on the remembrance plaque. My father started the garage on East Street when I was born. Now, in 2015, we've been in business 89 years. Today you don't realise how narrow the roads were then. There were no kerbs. You just walked along the edge of the road. But there wasn’t much traffic then. It is so different now of course. I remember the main A27 road. I used to push my brother in his pushchair all the way in to Fareham where they had all these Hornby toys.

Fíanaigecht in Manx Tradition FÍANAIGECHT in MANX TRADITION 1
Fíanaigecht in Manx Tradition FÍANAIGECHT IN MANX TRADITION 1 GEORGE BRODERICK University of Mannheim Introduction: The Finn Cycle In order to set the Manx examples of Fíanaigecht in context I cite here Bernhard Maier's short sketch of the Finn Cycle as it appears in Maier (1998: 118). Finn Cycle or Ossianic Cycle. The prose naratives and ballads centred upon the legendary hero Finn mac Cumaill and his retinue, the Fianna. They are set in the time of the king Cormac mac Airt at the beginning of the 3rdC AD. The heroes, apart from Finn, the leader of the Fianna, are his son Oisín, his grandson Oscar, and the warriors Caílte mac Rónáin, Goll mac Morna and Lugaid Lága. Most of the stories concerning F[inn] are about hunting adventures, love-affairs [...] and military disputes [...]. The most substantial work of this kind, combin- ing various episodes within a narrative framework, is Acallam na Senórach . The ballads concerning F[inn] gained in popularity from the later Middle Ages onwards and were the most important source of James Mac- pherson's "Works of Ossian" (Maier 1998: 118). The individual texts of the poems and ballads concerned with the Finn Cycle seemingly date over a period from the learned scribal tradition of the eleventh 2 to the later popular oral tradition of the early seventeenth century. Sixty-nine poems from this corpus survive in a single manuscript dating from 1626-27 known as Duanaire Finn ('Finn's poem book') (cf. Mac Neill 1908, Murphy 1933, 1953, Carey 2003). According to Ruairí Ó hUiginn (2003: 79), Duanaire Finn forms part of a long manuscript that was compiled in Ostend in 1626-7.

The Continent of Faerie Was Colonised Once Before, by a Nameless Race Of
The continent of Faerie was colonised once before, by a nameless race of men who sailed west across the trackless Atlantic in the time before the Romans came to Britain. Their dykes and dolmens still scar the land. Their degenerate descendants, the Hairy Men, fell to worshipping pagan gods and became little better than beasts. By the time of St. Brendan the Navigator, who first claimed the continent for Christendom, they were too deeply steeped in sin to greet him with anything but sticks and stones. The Marcher Lords followed in Brendan’s wake. They hold their corner of Faerie in the name of England’s king, though not a man among them is certain of his name. They keep the peace, suppress the Hairy Men, mount pointless campaigns against each other and sponsor doomed military expeditions into the western wilderness. Their peasants labour as thanklessly as they would in any other feudal state. A steady stream of exiles, rogues and outcasts arrive in the eastern harbours, fleeing persecution or seeking fortune. Time flows differently here. A man may return to England after years of adventure to find that only a night has passed, and the warrant for his arrest is just as active as it was the day he left. PCs are more likely to be bandits or militiamen than knights. All clerics are Christian, but may have different powers depending on the saint they are devoted to. Magicians tend to have fey blood. Each Lord only controls about a single six-mile hex - the Marches are largely unpoliced, and taking a message to another Lord is an adventure in itself.

INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.Thc sign or “target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing pagc(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of cither blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning" the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.
