I could not have wished for a more supportive and engaged supervisor. I have been lucky enough to meet and learn from many brilliant minds in three universities over the past 9 years. Particular thanks go to Paul Delaney at Trinity College Dublin, who introduced me to several novels which proved the genesis of this thesis. I am indebted to Viktor Doychinov for letting me pretend to be an engineer in order to print this, and to Charlotte Bentley for providing French translations. Thank you to my parents Bruce and Lizzie, and my brother Allan, who offered much advice and aid. From providing financial incentives to start reading when I was young (a penny a page – I will claim the debt one day) up to the day of submitting, you have been there for me unfailingly, and I’m decidedly grateful. Sara Brio and Carla Douglas, along with the Leeds postgraduate community, have provided reassurance and practical assistance in hours of need. The same can be said of a wider circle of friends, not least Kate Dunstone, for keeping me company in the library, Drew Edwards, for encouragement and conversation provided both tipsy and sober, and Felipe Fazenda, for intellectual stimulation, video gaming recommendations, and an invaluable discussion of Foucault which lasted well into the early hours. I’m also most grateful to Antoinette and Michael, who lent me a sofa and a spare Persian cat during trips to Ireland. This thesis is dedicated to my grandparents, with love and memory. 4 Abstract This thesis analyses forms of ruin within literary representations of Ireland between 1916 and 1945. I examine how novels, short stories, and life writing set during these years use ruin as a source of active reflection on Irish history and culture. The texts in question can be understood as resistant contributions to Irish cultural memory – a term I use to denote the diverse social sites within which remembrance of the past is practiced and developed. I focus on the work of J. G. Farrell (Troubles), Elizabeth Bowen (The Last September, Bowen’s Court), William Trevor (Fools of Fortune, The Story of Lucy Gault), Sebastian Barry (The Secret Scripture), Seán Ó Faoláin (‘Midsummer Night Madness’, ‘A Broken World’), and Máirtín Ó Cadhain (Cré na Cille), arguing that each author mobilises ruin to intervene in problematic narratives of the past. The history in question is firstly Ireland’s revolutionary period and the fate of the Anglo-Irish ‘Big House’ during this time; secondly, the insular and damaged conditions within post-independence statehood; and finally, the pressures placed upon the Free State’s nationalistic insularity by the global ruin of World War II. I coin the term ‘radical decay’ to describe how fragmentation, damage, and degeneration are deployed in order to resist ingrained cultural values and perceptions of history. Ruins are records of the past characterised by absences and flux, which result in semiotic ambiguity. The writers discussed here embrace this ambiguity to unsettle historical meaning, and so resist calcified practices and manipulative agendas within Irish heritage. Ruin appears as a heterogeneous substance within these texts. It is present in the narratives regarding damaged buildings, including the torched Big Houses of 5 the Ascendancy, as a decaying asylum within the Free State, and in sites of abandonment or neglect in a destitute rural landscape. Ruin is also portrayed as a textual and personal condition. Using radical decay as a conceptual foundation for my analysis, I will show how each form of ruin is represented in Irish literature to provoke resistant renegotiations of cultural memory. 6 Contents List of Illustrations ...................................................................................................... 8 Introduction ................................................................................................................. 9 1.

  • Komisaruk Family
    Komisaruk family Updated by Chaim Freedman 18/02/2020, to replace the material in his book “Eliyahu’s Branches, the Descendants of the Vilna Gaon and His Family”, Avotaynu 1997. Dov Ber (Berel) Komisaruk, born 1776 in Girtegola, Lithuania,1 (son of David Komisaruk [1747 - ] and Khana ?), died 1843 in Rassein, Lithuania.2 Oral tradition held that Berel came from a prominent family of scholars and communal leaders in Kovno. Lithuanian records prove that the family came from the city Rassein which was located in Kovno Gubernia (province).When the Jews were compelled to adopt a surname in 1804 Berel and his brothers or their father registered their surname as "Komisaruk". Later generations used various forms of this name: Komisaruk, Komesaroff, Komisar, Comisaroff, Comisarow. A full explanation of the reason for these variations and the historic basis for the family's activities in Rassein can be found in "Our Fathers' Harvest" (Chaim Freedman, Israel 1982, supplement 1990.) Berel Komisaruk and his family appear to have held a license to farm taxes which the local Jewish community was obliged to pay to the Russian government. In their case the particular tax was that due to the supply corp of the army, the Komisariat. This was probably the origin of this surname. Tradition claims some relationship with the famous Soloveitchik family of Kovno. Other than their common Levitic descent, this has not been established. The Soloveitchik family was amongst the founders of the Kovno community in the early 18th century. The 1816 Revision List for Rassein city includes two family groups with heads of family Leib, son of David Komisaruk and Velvel, son of David Komisaruk.

  • Paternal Legacy in Early English Literature Dissertation Presented In
    Paternal Legacy in Early English Literature Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Erin Marie Szydloski Shaull Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Christopher A. Jones, Advisor Leslie Lockett Karen Winstead Copyright by Erin Marie Szydloski Shaull 2015 Abstract This dissertation argues that literature in Old English and early Middle English characterizes legacy-giving as a serious obligation of fatherhood and key paternal role. I contend that the father’s legacy in this cultural context can be understood to include property, heirlooms, wisdom, and kin ties. This project contributes to the emerging study of fatherhood, which has begun to examine fatherhood as a previously under-explored phenomenon that is both a cultural institution and a part of many men’s lived experiences. I examine Anglo-Saxon law-codes, Old English wisdom poetry, Beowulf, and the Middle English texts The Proverbs of Alfred and Layamon’s Brut in order to argue for the cultural importance of this fatherly role. I argue that many of the same cultural markers of Anglo-Saxon paternal legacy continue to be relevant after the Norman Conquest, but that the Norman practice of strict patrilineal primogeniture alters certain aspects of fatherhood. While Old English literature prizes a relationship between father and son that includes an ongoing giving of self on the part of the father, early Middle English literature prefers an ideal father who serves as a prototype for the son, dying just as the son reaches adulthood.

    Obituary "P" Index Copyright © 2004 – 2021 GRHS DISCLAIMER: GRHS cannot guarantee that should you purchase a copy of what you would expect to be an obituary from its obituary collection that you will receive an obituary per se. The obituary collection consists of such items as a) personal cards of information shared with GRHS by researchers, b) www.findagrave.com extractions, c) funeral home cards, d) newspaper death notices, and e) obituaries extracted from newspapers and other publications as well as funeral home web sites. Some obituaries are translations of obituaries published in German publications, although generally GRHS has copies of the German versions. These German versions would have to be ordered separately for they are kept in a separate file in the GRHS library. The list of names and dates contained herein is an alphabetical listing [by surname and given name] of the obituaries held at the Society's headquarters for the letter combination indicated. Each name is followed by the birth date in the first column and death date in the second. Dates may be extrapolated or provided from another source. Important note about UMLAUTS: Surnames in this index have been entered by our volunteers exactly as they appear in each obituary but the use of characters with umlauts in obits has been found to be inconsistant. For example the surname Büchele may be entered as Buchele or Bahmüller as Bahmueller. This is important because surnames with umlauted characters are placed in alphabetic order after regular characters so if you are just scrolling down this sorted list you may find the surname you are looking for in an unexpected place (i.e.

  • Surname Index to Find All Instances of Your Family Name, Search for Variants Caused by Poor Handwriting, Misinterpretation of Similar Letters Or Their Sounds
    SCCGS Quarterly Volume 43 (2020) Surname Index To find all instances of your family name, search for variants caused by poor handwriting, misinterpretation of similar letters or their sounds. A few such examples are L for S, c for e, n for u, u for a; phonetic spellings (Aubuchon for Oubuchon); abbreviations (M’ for Mc ); single letters for double (m for mm, n for nn); translations (King for Roy, Carpenter for Zimmermann). Other search tips: substitute each vowel for other ones, search for nicknames, when hyphenated – search for each surname alone, with and without “de” or “von”; with and without a space or apostrophe (Lachance and La Chance, O’Brien and OBRIEN).
