  • The Influence of Naval Captain Charles Austen's North American
    y y The Influence of Naval Captain Charles Austen’s North : u : American Experiences on Persuasion and Mansfield Park SHEILA JOHNSON KINDRED Sheila Johnson Kindred teaches Philosophy at Saint Mary’s University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. As a member of the Nova Scotia chapter of JASNA and the Kent Branch of JAS she has lectured and published on Jane Austen in both North America and England, including a contribution to Jane Austen and the North Atlantic. T of Jane Austen’s naval characters sparkle with animation and authenticity. In Persuasion we meet Captain Frederick Wentworth , who has become very wealthy by the capture of naval prize and is known for his “great deal of intelligence, spirit and brilliancy” (26). In company is his sister , the good - humored Mrs. Croft, who makes a strong impression as the eminently practical naval wife of the likable Rear-Admiral Croft. In Mansfield Park Midshipman William Price delivers spirited narratives, which are “proof of . [his naval] knowledge, ener- gy, courage and cheerfulness” (236). These characterizations evince a surprising knowledge of sea -going life for someone who lived deep in the English countryside. So how did Jane Austen come by the information she needed to create these naval figures ? One of her most important sources was her brother Charles , who, as an officer in the British navy during the Napoleonic wars, was stationed in North America for over six years between 1805 and 1811. His naval expertise and ex - ploits cruising the Atlantic Ocean and capturing prize vessels, his love match to the beautiful young Fanny Palmer of Bermuda, and his social and professional life with “brother o fficers ” all find echoes in Persuasion and Mansfield Park .

  • Economies, Moralities, and State Formations in British Colonial India
    Economies, Moralities, and State Formations in British Colonial India By Nicholas Hoover Wilson A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ann Swidler, Chair Professor Neil Fligstein Professor James Vernon Professor Dylan Riley Fall 2012 Abstract Economies, Moralities, and State Formations in British Colonial India by Nicholas Hoover Wilson Doctor of Philosophy in Sociology University of California, Berkeley Professor Ann Swidler, Chair How is modern power organized? My dissertation explores this question by probing how state, society, and economy became ethically autonomous spheres for colonial administrators. In other words, I ask how officials shifted justifications for their behavior from referring to their immedi- ate peers to the abstract imperatives of markets, the social, and sovereignty. Corruption scandals were a key cause of this shift. Endemic to the English East India Trading Company's administration in India since its foundation, these scandals generally involved admin- istrative squabbles escalating into appeals to authorities in London. However, while the scandals had a consistent form, the Seven Years War decisively changed their content. The war eroded the insulation protecting the Company's London authorities from Parliament and put a host of new actors who had little knowledge of Indian affairs in a position to influence the Company's behav- ior. Consequently, when Company officials in India appealed to London, they used the abstract moral language of state, society, and economy to appeal to these new actors for assistance. Moreover, these newly abstract justifications were then used by the succeeding class of senior Company administrators as resources to shape reforms of the Colonial State in India.

  • THE HUGUENOTS in FRANCE by Dr
    THE HUGUENOTS IN FRANCE By Dr. SAMUEL SMILES PREFACE. In preparing this edition for the press, I have ventured to add three short memoirs of distinguished Huguenot Refugees and their descendants. Though the greatest number of Huguenots banished from France at the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes were merchants and manufacturers, who transferred their skill and arts to England, which was not then a manufacturing country; a large number of nobles and gentry emigrated to this and other countries, leaving their possessions to be confiscated by the French king. The greater number of the nobles entered the armies of the countries in which they took refuge. In Holland, they joined the army of the Prince of Orange, afterwards William III., King of England. After driving the armies of Louis XIV. out of Ireland, they met the French at Ramilies, Blenheim, and Malplacquet, and other battles in the Low Countries. A Huguenot engineer directed the operations at the siege of Namur, which ended in its capture. Another conducted the siege of Lille, which was also taken. But perhaps the greatest number of Huguenot nobles entered the Prussian service. Their descendants revisited France on more than one occasion. They overran the northern and eastern parts of France in 1814 and 1815; and last of all they vanquished the descendants of their former persecutors at Sedan in 1870. Sedan was, prior to the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, the renowned seat of Protestant learning; while now it is known as the scene of the greatest military catastrophe which has occurred in modern history.
