A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Australian National University. 1970. This thesis is the result of original research conducted by the author in the Department of History, School of General Studies, Australian National University, between January 1967 and January 1970. (0U~> George Peter Shaw. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis was written with the aid of a Research Scholarship granted by the Australian National University, and taken out in the Department of History at the School of General Studies. There the patient wisdom of Professor Manning Clark first stimulated and encouraged, and then with equanimity assisted in the evolution of a set of ideas he could scarcely be expected to share. He and Broughton provided a zestful and provocative dialectic, and my debt to each is not to be measured in these few words. Professor C.M. Williams’ sharp wit saved me from some errors, and under his guiding hand the staff and students of the History Department provided several hot contests and much useful criticism at those Wednesday afternoon seminars. To all at the School of General Studies who helped turn the award of a scholarship into a rich three-year sojourn I return by gratitude. My debt to the staff and benefactors of the Mitchell Library, Sydney, is written in the footnotes of almost every page. I owe much to the staff of the Advanced Reading Room and Microfilm Room of the Australian National Library. Both libraries of the Australian National University, in conjunction with the Victorian Public Library and the British Museum, kept up a flow of pamphlets to which sections of this work are obviously indebted. I am grateful for the opportunities provided to investigate papers in the New South Wales State Archives and the Archives of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney, for access to the Therry Papers at Canisius College, Sydney, the British Critic at the Fisher Library, Sydney, the Broughton Library, Moore College, Sydney, and to Dr. N. Gunson for an extended loan of his transcript of the Threlkeld Papers. I wish to thank Mr. P.W. Brett, business manager of the School of General Studies, whose willingness to accommodate excessive calls on research funds made the extensive research at the Mitchell Library possible. Finally, my thanks are due to the Brisbane Typing Service for exceeding its obligations to ensure that this thesis reached its destination on time. iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Page Acknowledgements iii Abbreviations v The Argument vi Introduction xii The Thesis CH.I.

His school days at Canterbury had him strategically placed by a camp for French prisoners and within range of tales that would heighten his sense of the drama which closed the eighteenth and opened the nineteenth centuries on the Continent. From Canterbury Broughton went to London, and into the midst of a parliamentary and pulpit debate on the ill-effect of religious dissent on good order and stable government. Whatever he picked up there was systematically arranged along with lively comment by Dr. Herbert Marsh, Professor of Divinity at Cambridge and champion of the Church Establishment against all loose thinkers who flirted with non-conformity. Broughton emerged from Cambridge in 1818 distinguished in scholarship and a firm highchurchman. He earned high praise for his diligence as a curate and good money for his success as a schoolmaster. Yet he yearned for more. He wanted quiet and seclusion for study and an increased emolument. He asked the Duchess of Wellington to find him the former, and the Duke of Wellington offered him the latter. So in 1829, for £ 2,000 a year, Broughton came to New South Wales as compensation for his failure to win a librarianship in the British Museum. Before he left England Broughton received Scott's official papers and announced, when he arrived in the colony, that he would build on Scott's foundations that Church Establishment which would V I 1 secure the colony, and happily the whole Pacific region, for God as seen through the disciples of the English protestant reformers. On the eve of his departure the announcement of Catholic Emancipation added urgency to his task, while on the morrow of his arrival the news that the Church of England had lost its land endowment injected an element of desperation into his struggle. These two decisions, the work of an English Tory administration, provided the framework for the first of Broughton's two decades of service to the colony. From 1830 to 1834 Broughton fought for the restoration of land endowments, and failed. Darling would happily have seen him succeed. Bourke was determined that he should not. The Tory administration in England which abolished the land grants intended replacing them with aid of equal value from other sources. Instead it was itself replaced by a Whig administration determined to spread the aid to all major denominations at work in the colony with the Church of England as the most favoured son. While this offer was available Broughton campaigned for a return of exclusive aid to the Church of England. By the time he came to accept it in 1834, Bourke had convinced the Colonial Office that aid must be made available to all churches on an equal basis. To reverse this decision and hopefully to regain some land, as well as to raise funds from English churchmen at large, Broughton returned to England in 1834. He departed with the threat to forsake the colony for good unless he could bring back from the Colonial Office a better deal for colonial Anglicanism than he left behind. In England Broughton's attitude underwent a revolutionary change. He arrived late in 1834 and realised that the attack on church privilege and property was empire wide. He realised, too, that many churchmen viii were attempting to extract the sting from the attack by rewriting traditional church doctrine and practice to accommodate the whims of Dissenters. Broughton abhorred the process and shuddered before the prospect. He abandoned all claims for land and decided to return to New South Wales as a bishop, and there to turn the Church of England into a citadel for the preservation of true doctrine and proper church order while a liberal madness swept the rest of the English speaking world. Broughton realised that the Church of England could no longer be an Establishment, and offered to resign his seat on the Legislative Council in the near future as a token of this belief. A day would come, Broughton continued to believe, when the colony disillusioned by its liberal experiment would appeal for a return to the older order and its stability. In that day Broughton's successors would throw open the doors of the citadel in which had been preserved the genius of institutions that had accompanied England's rise to eminence, and produce a body of men fit to serve the nation in church and government. This day may not be, he said, for two hundred years. Broughton's determination to retain his seat on the Legislative Council for at least a year was a symbol of the policy he had decided to adopt for the immediate future. Although the Church Establishment was going, it had not gone, and Broughton intended using his dying powers and declining influence to drive as favourable a bargain as he could with government. Back in the colony in 1836 he raised no public objection to the Church Act because it provided him with money for churches and clergy in his citadel.

  • Romantic Medicine and the Poetics of Palliation
    Romantic Medicine and the Poetics of Palliation by Brittany Pladek A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto © Copyright by Brittany Pladek (2013) Romantic Medicine and the Poetics of Palliation Brittany Pladek Doctor of Philosophy Department of English University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This study uses the interdisciplinary lens of Romantic medical ethics to reconsider received ideas about the therapeutic power of Romantic poetry. Studies of literature and medicine in the long nineteenth century have generally considered disease the era’s main medical symbol; they have likewise considered holistic “healing” its major model for poetry’s therapeutic effect, following Geoffrey Hartman’s description of Wordsworth’s ability to “heal the wound of self.” Without denying the importance of these paradigms, my work explores alternate foci: pain instead of disease, and palliation instead of healing. In Britain, professional medical ethics were first codified during the Romantic period in response to a variety of medical and social advances. But because of Romantic medicine’s curative uncertainty and utilitarian intolerance for pain, its ethicists turned from cure to palliation to describe a doctor’s primary duty toward his patients. My study argues that this palliative ethic was taken up by Romantic literary writers to describe their own work. By engaging with contemporary medical ethics treatises such as John Gregory’s 1770 Lectures on the Duties and Qualifications of a Physician and Thomas Percival’s 1803 Medical Ethics, I explore four Romantic authors’ struggle to find an appropriate medical model for their work’s therapeutic benefits.

Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830.

  • Wu Rare Item Post.Pdf (89.03Kb)
    Dorothy Wordsworth’s Letter and Its Significance By: Crystal Wu This post shall spotlight Dorothy Wordsworth’s unpublished letter “1820, June 2, Dorothy Wordsworth to Joshua Watson and John James Watson” housed in the Armstrong Browning Library Rare Letters collection. Although Dorothy is not as well-known as her brother William Wordsworth, her letter brings a new insight on the wide connections the Wordsworths have, and how these connections might have possibly influenced William Wordsworth’s change of focus in his later poems. In addition, the letter illustrates the care and thought that Dorothy put into writing the letter. The content of this letter involves Dorothy Wordsworth updating Joshua Watson and John James Watson on the health of Christopher Wordsworth, another brother of Dorothy and William Wordsworth. Interestingly, the letter is divided into parts, with the first part addressed to Joshua, and the second part addressed to John. At the time of the letter, Christopher had been recuperating after a bout of illness. Despite the letter being a personal correspondence, there is an air of formality. This may have been due to Dorothy’s relationship with the Watsons as acquaintances, rather than as close friends. In addition, she discusses the well-being of Mrs. Norris. William and his wife are briefly mentioned at the end of the letter, although simply as a passing remark. At first glance, there seems to be a smaller, cramped handwriting on the first page of the letter, followed by a larger handwriting. Upon further research, it is noted that the handwritings are of two different people, Joshua Watson and Dorothy Wordsworth.

At present no scholar has provided an in-depth study into the dissemination of the Pater Noster outside the clerical sphere. This thesis provides a detailed consideration of the ways in which the Pater Noster was taught to the laity in medieval England. It explores the central position of the prayer in the lay curriculum, the constitutions which played a fundamental role in its teaching, and the methods by which it was disseminated. Clerical expositions of the prayer and its tabular and diagrammatic representations are examined to consider the material available to assist the clergy in their pedagogical role. The ways in which material associated with the Pater Noster was modified and delivered to a lay audience provides an important component in the holistic approach of this thesis.

  • William Wordsworth in Context
    WILLIAM WORDSWORTH IN CONTEXT William Wordsworth’s poetry responded to the enormous literary, political, cultural, technological and social changes that the poet lived through during his lifetime (1770‒1850), and to his own transforma- tion from young radical inspired by the French Revolution to Poet Laureate and supporter of the establishment. The poet of the ‘ego- tistical sublime’ who wrote the pioneering autobiographical master- piece, The Prelude, and whose work is remarkable for its investigation of personal impressions, memories and experiences, is also the poet who is critically engaged with the cultural and political developments of his era. William Wordsworth in Context presents thirty-five concise chapters on contexts crucial for an understanding and appreciation of this leading Romantic poet. It focuses on his life, circle and poetic composition; on his reception and influence; on the significance of late eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century literary contexts; and on the historical, political, scientific and philosophical issues that helped to shape Wordsworth’s poetry and prose. andrew bennett is Professor of English and Director of the Centre for Romantic and Victorian Studies at the University of Bristol.
