  • The Death of Captain Cook in Theatre 224

    The Death of Captain Cook in Theatre 224

    The Many Deaths of Captain Cook A Study in Metropolitan Mass Culture, 1780-1810 Ruth Scobie PhD University of York Department of English April 2013 i Ruth Scobie The Many Deaths of Captain Cook Abstract This thesis traces metropolitan representations, between 1780 and 1810, of the violent death of Captain James Cook at Kealakekua Bay in Hawaii. It takes an interdisciplinary approach to these representations, in order to show how the interlinked texts of a nascent commercial culture initiated the creation of a colonial character, identified by Epeli Hau’ofa as the looming “ghost of Captain Cook.” The introduction sets out the circumstances of Cook’s death and existing metropolitan reputation in 1779. It situates the figure of Cook within contemporary mechanisms of ‘celebrity,’ related to notions of mass metropolitan culture. It argues that previous accounts of Cook’s fame have tended to overemphasise the immediacy and unanimity with which the dead Cook was adopted as an imperialist hero; with the result that the role of the scene within colonialist histories can appear inevitable, even natural. In response, I show that a contested mythology around Cook’s death was gradually constructed over the three decades after the incident took place, and was the contingent product of a range of texts, places, events, and individuals. The first section examines responses to the news of Cook’s death in January 1780, focusing on the way that the story was mediated by, first, its status as ‘news,’ created by newspapers; and second, the effects on Londoners of the Gordon riots in June of the same year.

    DAVID SAMWELL Journal, 1776-79 Reel M1583

    AUSTRALIAN JOINT COPYING PROJECT DAVID SAMWELL Journal, 1776-79 Reel M1583 The British Library Great Russell Street London WC1B 3DG National Library of Australia State Library of New South Wales Filmed: 1982 BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE David Samwell (1751-1798) was born in Nantglyn in north Wales, where his father was the vicar. He was educated at one of the local grammar schools, probably Ruthin. In 1775 he gained his certificate as a second mate from the Court of Examiners at the Royal College of Surgeons. He was apprenticed to John Crosier, who had been surgeon on HMS Dolphin on its Pacific voyage in 1764-66. In 1776 Crosier secured Samwell’s appointment as surgeon’s mate on HMS Resolution, commanded by James Cook. Following the death of the Surgeon William Anderson in August 1778, Cook promoted Samwell to the position of surgeon on HMS Discovery, commanded by Charles Clerke. Both Cook and Clerke died in 1779 and Lieutenant James King commanded HMS Discovery on the return voyage to England in 1780. Samwell served under King on HMS Crocodile in 1780-81 and later on HMS Kite. He retired on half- pay in 1786 and established a medical practice in London. He had provided some assistance to King on the publication of the official account of Cook’s third voyage. In 1786, encouraged by Andrew Kippis, he published A narrative of the death of Captain James Cook, much of which was incorporated in the major biography published by Kippis in 1788. Samwell returned to sea in 1793 on the outbreak of war with France and served on HMS Marlborough and HMS Unicorn.

He is my hero and this is his accomplishment as much as it is mine. Next, I would be remiss without acknowledging the tremendous and never-ending support of my mother and chief editor, Mary Anne Woodrom; my dad and step-mother, Harold and Marilyn Woodrom; and my sister and assistant editor, Rebecca Reid and my brother-in-law, Lynn. My brother Roy Woodrom, whose generosity with his frequent flier miles sent me to ECOnference 2000, which set me on my path to study sea turtles as an undergraduate at Texas A&M. The rest of my extended family, especially my aunt Dr. Sandra Luna McCune for her editing assistance, also deserve acknowledgement for always being there for me regardless of the paths I choose to take.

    1 Private William Charles Norman, Number 669305 of the 3 Battalion

    Private William Charles Norman, Number 669305 of the 3rd Battalion (Toronto Regiment), Canadian Expeditionary Force, is buried in Bahus Churchyard, the sole Commonwealth soldier within the cemetery’s bounds: Grave reference – in north-eastern part. (Right: The image of the shoulder flash of the 3rd Battalion (Toronto Regiment) is from Wikipedia.) (continued) 1 His occupation prior to military service recorded as that of a carpenter, William Charles Norman may have been the young man – a self-described labourer on his way to the industrial city of Sydney - included on the passenger list of the steamship Bruce which arrived from St. John’s, Dominion of Newfoundland, in North Sydney, Canadian province of Nova Scotia, on April 4 of 1912. However, this much is speculation which requires more information. All that seems may be said with certainty of William Charles Norman’s presence in Canada prior to January 25, 1916, is that he had been living in the area of Toronto since at least June of 1914, and that, by that January of 1915, he was a resident of 1466, Dufferin Street, in the city – this information forthcoming from his attestation papers. January 25 of 1916 was the day on which William Charles Norman presented himself for enlistment, for a medical examination – which found him fit for overseas service – and for attestation. He had prior to this date been a soldier of the Queen’s Own Rifles of Canada, a Canadian Militia regiment, for some twenty months, this unit then recruiting him for service with the 166th (Overseas) Battalion (Queen’s Own Rifles) of the Canadian Expeditionary Force*.
  • James Cook Info Sheet

    James Cook Info Sheet

    Library and Information Services Information sheet no 029 James Cook James Cook was born on 27 October 1728, at Marton in Cleveland. His education was basic and mainly self taught. At the age of twelve, he was bound as apprentice to the shopkeeper in Staithes, near Whitby. His apprenticeship did not last long when there was a disagreement between apprentice and master. In 1746, Cook took another apprenticeship in a Whitby shipping company involved with the east coast coal trade. Cook stayed with this firm for several years. Cook had a natural aptitude for mathematics and he quickly became a skilful navigator. In 1755, Cook’s ambitions outgrew the merchant navy, and although he was offered his first merchant command, he volunteered for the Royal Navy as an Able Seaman on board the HMS Eagle, under the command of Captain Hugh Palliser. Cook’s qualities quickly brought him advancement, and in July 1757 he was appointed as Master of HMS Pembroke, after only two years in the service. Cook’s efficiency was noted while surveying the St. Lawrence River; this survey played a decisive part in the capture of Quebec and the conquest of Canada. After the fall of Quebec in 1759, Cook was appointed Master of HMS Northumberland under the command of Captain Lord Coleville and was engaged in further survey work of the St Lawrence River, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland coasts. Cook arrived back in Britain in October 1762 and after a brief encounter, married Elizabeth Batts of Barking on 21 December. In April 1763, Cook was appointed by the Admiralty to survey the coast of Newfoundland and Labrador.

    ‘Of Red War and Little Else’: European Responses to Indigenous Violence in the Tasman World, c.1769-1850s Samuel Gordon Gardiner Ritchie A thesis submitted to the Victoria University of Wellington in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History Victoria University of Wellington 2013 ii iii For my Michelle and our Matilda Dylan arohanui, arohamai iv Abstract Europeans responded to indigenous internecine violence in a variety of ways in the Tasman world from first contact to the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury. Whereas extant historiography has previously addressed European responses to Māori and Aboriginal violence in geographic and temporal iso- lation, a comparison spanning time and space augments knowledge of these responses. Violence was not the only aspect of indigenous societies Europe- ans responded to, nor was indigenous violence the only justification for colonisation. However an investigation of the ways in which Europeans rep- resented and responded to indigenous violence enables a better understand- ing of the processes of the colonisation of the Tasman world. Indigenous internecine violence included cannibalism, infanticide, inter- gender violence, and inter-tribal warfare. Through a wide variety of Euro- pean observations of this violence, this thesis identifies an initial conceptu- alisation of both New Zealand Māori and Aboriginal peoples of Australia as violent, cannibal ‘savages’. This conceptualisation was used to justify both colonisation and the related evangelical and colonial administrative attempts to suppress indigenous violence, as internecine violence was deemed ‘un- civilised’, unchristian, and unacceptable. Europeans attempted to suppress indigenous violence as it was seen both as an impediment to colonisation and, relatedly, as an inhibitor to the ‘redemption’ of indigenous peoples.
