    “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil”

    “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil” English Identity and the Law of Arms in Early Modern England Claire Renée Kennedy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History and Philosophy of Science University of Sydney 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My greatest thanks and appreciation to Ofer Gal, who supervised my PhD with constant interest, insightfulness and support. This thesis owes so much to his helpful conversation and encouraging supervision and guidance. I have benefitted immensely from the suggestions and criticisms of my examiners, John Sutton, Nick Wilding, and Anthony Grafton, to whom I owe a particular debt. Grafton’s suggestion during the very early stages of my candidature that the quarrel between William Camden and Ralph Brooke might provide a promising avenue for research provided much inspiration for the larger project. I am greatly indebted to the staff in the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science: in particular, Hans Pols for his unwavering support and encouragement; Daniela Helbig, for providing some much-needed motivation during the home-stretch; and Debbie Castle, for her encouraging and reassuring presence. I have benefitted immensely from conversations with friends, in and outside the Unit for HPS. This includes, (but is not limited to): Megan Baumhammer, Sahar Tavakoli, Ian Lawson, Nick Bozic, Gemma Lucy Smart, Georg Repnikov, Anson Fehross, Caitrin Donovan, Stefan Gawronski, Angus Cornwell, Brenda Rosales and Carrie Hardie. My particular thanks to Kathryn Ticehurst and Laura Sumrall, for their willingness to read drafts, to listen, and to help me clarify my thoughts and ideas. My thanks also to the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters, University College London, and the History of Science Program, Princeton University, where I benefitted from spending time as a visiting research student.

  • The Status of the Marsh Fritillary in Wales: 2016

    The Status of the Marsh Fritillary in Wales: 2016

    The Status of the Marsh Fritillary in Wales: 2016 A lean year… If you visited a Marsh Fritillary site during the 2016 flight season you were probably struck by just how few butterflies were flying, even when the weather was fine – not just Marsh Fritillaries, but other species too. This was the case even on sites which held good numbers of larval webs in the autumn of 2015. It was all rather puzzling. But just how badly did the Marsh Fritillary fare in 2016? Keep reading to find out… Introduction The conservation of the Marsh Fritillary, one of the most rapidly declining butterflies in Europe, hinges on knowing where our core populations are, how they are faring and making sure that sites are well managed for the butterfly. Where are they? – Population status surveys To maintain an up-to-date picture of where our Welsh Marsh Fritillary populations are (distribution) Butterfly Conservation Wales (BCW) co-ordinates a Wales-wide programme of visits in which every population gets at least one survey visit every five years. As well as confirming presence or absence, these visits can also highlight concerns, such as management issues, that need following up. How strong are they? – Surveillance programme To assess how strong our Marsh Fritillary populations are, and how this changes over time, the Wales Marsh Fritillary Surveillance Programme was established in 2012 by BCW in partnership with Natural Resources Wales (NRW). Annual larval web counts of key populations (21 currently) are undertaken and used to calculate both site-level and Wales-wide trends. 1 Population Status Surveys The rolling programme of five-yearly site visits continued in 2016.

It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.
