  • The Way to Otranto: Gothic Elements
    THE WAY TO OTRANTO: GOTHIC ELEMENTS IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY ENGLISH POETRY, 1717-1762 Vahe Saraoorian A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY December 1970 ii ABSTRACT Although full-length studies have been written about the Gothic novel, no one has undertaken a similar study of poetry, which, if it may not be called "Gothic," surely contains Gothic elements. By examining Gothic elements in eighteenth-century poetry, we can trace through it the background to Horace Walpole's The Castle of Otranto, the first Gothic novel. The evolutionary aspect of the term "Gothic" itself in eighteenth-century criticism was pronounced, yet its various meanings were often related. To the early graveyard poets it was generally associated with the barbarous and uncouth, but to Walpole, writing in the second half of the century, the Gothic was also a source of inspiration and enlightenment. Nevertheless, the Gothic was most frequently associated with the supernatural. Gothic elements were used in the work of the leading eighteenth-century poets. Though an age not often thought remark­ able for its poetic expression, it was an age which clearly exploited the taste for Gothicism, Alexander Pope, Thomas Parnell, Edward Young, Robert Blair, Thomas and Joseph Warton, William Collins, Thomas Gray, and James Macpherson, the nine poets studied, all expressed notes of Gothicism in their poetry. Each poet con­ tributed to the rising taste for Gothicism. Alexander Pope, whose influence on Walpole was considerable, was the first poet of significance in the eighteenth century to write a "Gothic" poem.

  • A Seventeenth Century Baptist View of Ministry As
    A SEVENTEENTH CENTURY BAPTIST VIEW OF MINISTRY AS SEEN IN THREE FUNERAL SERMONS BY JOHN PIGGOTT __________________ A Paper Presented to Dr. Michael A.G. Haykin The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary __________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for 28420 __________________ by G. Stephen Weaver, Jr. 3630 Antioch Church Rd. W. / Lenoir City, TN 37772 August 14, 2006 A SEVENTEENTH CENTURY BAPTIST VIEW OF MINISTRY AS SEEN IN THREE FUNERAL SERMONS BY JOHN PIGGOTT In the course of three months in the year 1702, there died three of the most prominent Particular Baptist pastors in London.1 These men were William Collins, Thomas Harrison and Hercules Collins. Their deaths signaled the end of a most eventful seventeenth century in Baptist life in England marked by both persecution and progress. All three of their funeral sermons were preached by the same man, a young Baptist minister by the name of John Piggott (d. 1713). In these funeral sermons preached to the deceased ministers’ respective churches, a specific view of ministry can be detected. While all three of these sermons were preached between August and November of the year 1702, they actually provide a glimpse of the prevalent view of ministry among Particular Baptists in London during the mid to late seventeenth century. Biographical Sketches In order to better understand the significance of the view of ministry expressed in the funeral sermons of John Piggott which testify of the lives and ministries of Thomas Harrison, Hercules Collins and William Collins, a brief biographical sketch of each of these four individuals will be drawn.

His first and best-known novel, Ince Memed, won the Turkish highest literary prize “Varlık.” In 1961, Edouard Roditi translated Yaşar Kemal’s epic novel, Ince Memed under the English title Memed, My Hawk, and it is still in print today. Yaşar Kemal’s novel gained popularity and earned literary fame outside of Turkey. As Barry Tharaud stated in his article, “Death, Childhood and Primal Fear in Yaşar Kemal’s The Wind from the Plain”, Yaşar Kemal is one of the great living authors of world literature. The Undying Grass is the third novel The Wind from the Plain trilogy and it was published in 1968, the concluding volume of the last part's translation appeared in 1969, 1974 and, 1977. The Undying Grass is Yaşar Kemal's eight book of fiction to become available in English. The representation of Kemal's style in the English translation of his novels is explicitly formed by the constancy indicated, translators; Thilda Kemal, Edouard Roditi and, Margeret E.

  • Byron, Burns, Moore and the Packaging of National Song 0 Kirsteen Mccue
    ‘Difficult to imitate and impossible to equal’: Byron, Burns, Moore and the Packaging of National Song 0 Kirsteen McCue Abstract In the early 1810s, just before embarking on his Hebrew Melodies project, Byron engaged in a correspondence with the Scottish song editor George Thomson (1757–1851). While Byron chose not to engage in Thomson’s commission to write lyrics for his collections of Irish and Welsh songs, Thomson nonetheless published a number of Byron’s extant lyrics across his collections over the succeeding decades. This article traces how this happened, looks at Thomson’s final editorial choices and presentations of Byron’s lyrics, and reflects on the role of Byron as national songster alongside Thomson’s most significant poetic contributor, Robert Burns, and Byron’s great singer/songwriter friend Thomas Moore.1 Byron’s comment, quoted in the title to this essay, appeared in a letter to the song editor George Thomson (1757–1851) dated 10 September 1813.2 When asked to provide Thomson with national song lyrics for his Select Collection of Original Irish Airs, Byron protested a lack of confidence in ‘producing anything worthy’. He was capable, he wrote, of writing lyrics, but of an inferior quality that would only serve to ‘disgrace beautiful music’. ‘Burns in your country, and Moore in this’ continued Byron, ‘have shown that even their splendid talents may acquire additional reputation from this exercise of their powers’.3 And he concluded that these competitors were ‘difficult to imitate and impossible to equal’. Consequently, Byron did not accept Thomson’s invi- tation, but, with the permission of his publisher John Murray, Thomson did present several of Byron’s extant lyrics with musical settings by Beethoven, Haydn and others over the next two decades.

This tenth volume of Somerset Marriage Registers in- cludes the remaining portion of the Registers of the important parish of St. Mary's, Taunton, down to the year 1812. Of this Mr. Bates undertook the transcription. For Bishop's Hull, and, in part, for Halse, Mr. Seager has been responsible. It is intended that Volume XI shall be devoted to various country Parish Registers. The Marriage Registers of St. James, Taunton, have already been transcribed, and will be printed in a later volume. 4 O^QO/f C The usual contractions have been made use of w.=widower or widow. p.=of the parish ot. s.=spinster, single woman, co.=in the county of. or son of. dioc.=in the diocese of. b.=bachelor, or single man. /?V.=marriage licence. d.=daughter of. The reader must remember that the printed volumes are not "evidence" in the legal sense. Certificates must be obtained from the local clergy in charge of the Registers. It is the Editors' wish to print two volumes annually, and thus to make a steady and substantial progress in the work of preserving our ancient Parish Registers from the risks of destruction or loss to which they are constantly exposed, even in the best circumstances, so long as their con- tents remain in manuscript only.

  • Rare Books Catalogue
    JOHN INNES FOUNDATION HISTORICAL COLLECTIONS RARE BOOKS CATALOGUE 2nd Revised edition, November 2003 Kenneth Dick, Acting Librarian John Innes Centre INTRODUCTION This catalogue is a revised edition of “The John Innes Special Collection: A catalogue of selected books from the Library of The John Innes Institute” compiled by Elizabeth Atchison in 1978. This earlier catalogue by the then Librarian and later Curator of the Rare Books Collection has proved invaluable to the staff and many researchers visiting the John Innes Centre to consult the Collection. With this 2nd revised edition the Rare Books Reference Collection has been added to the catalogue providing a more complete guide to the resources available within the collection. It is important to note that the subtitle of the earlier publication, “Selected books” remains the case for this new edition as the special collections received as bequests have not been included. It is hoped that this new edition proves as useful and enjoyable as its predecessor. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to acknowledge the contribution all current and previous colleagues in the Library have made to this project. Particular mention should go to Elizabeth Stratton for providing the first revised edition of this catalogue.
