The authorities chiefly relied uponwere Collins and Burke . 2 The question, on page , whether the line separating Royalty from Nobility is to be drawn between the grandsons - o f e and the great grandsons the Sovereign , has recently b en answered in the affirmative ; fo r it was decided that the ’ ' Je e n s - D ufl Q great granddaughter, Lady Alexandra , had no rank by reason of her Royal Descent, but only such as is enjoyed by the daughters of Dukes in general .

    JOHN CRICHTON-STUART KBE, JP, MA, HonLLD(Glas), HonFIStructE, HonFRIAS, HonFCSD, FSAScot, FRSA, FCIM John Crichton-Stuart, 6th Marquess of Bute, died on 21 July 1993 at his family home, Mount Stuart, on the Isle of Bute, aged sixty years. He was born on 27 February 1933, fifteen minutes before his twin brother David, as eldest son of the 5th Marquess of Bute and of Eileen, Marchioness of Bute, herself the younger daughter of the 8th Earl of Granard. He was educated at Ampleforth College, and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he read history. From 1947 to 1956 he was styled Earl of Dumfries, and in 1956 succeeded his father as 6th Marquess of Bute. His full titles, with the dates of their creation, were: Lord Crichton (1488), Baronet (1627), Earl of Dumfries, Viscount of Air, Lord Crichton of Sanquhar and Cumnock (1633), Earl of Bute, Viscount Kingarth, Lord Mountstuart, Cumrae and Inchmarnock (1703), Baron Mountstuart of Wortley (1761), Baron Cardiff of Cardiff Castle (1776), Earl of Windsor and Viscount Mountjoy (1796). He was Hereditary Sheriff and Coroner of the County of Bute, Hereditary Keeper of Rothesay Castle, and patron of 9 livings, but being a Roman Catholic could not present. He was Lord-Lieutenant of Bute from 1967 to 1975, and of Argyll and Bute from 1990 until his death. Even a partial list of his appointments indicates the extent of John Bute's public service. He was Convener of Buteshire County Council (1967-70), and member of the Countryside Commission for Scotland (1970-78), the Development Commission (1973-78), the Oil Development Council for Scotland (1973-78), the Council of the Royal Society of Arts (1990-92), and the Board of the British Council (1987-92).

One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments. In cases where the cross calvary does not appear, a cross of some other kind is often found, as in the present instance.

  • Cardiff 19Th Century Gameboard Instructions
    Cardiff 19th Century Timeline Game education resource This resource aims to: • engage pupils in local history • stimulate class discussion • focus an investigation into changes to people’s daily lives in Cardiff and south east Wales during the nineteenth century. Introduction Playing the Cardiff C19th timeline game will raise pupil awareness of historical figures, buildings, transport and events in the locality. After playing the game, pupils can discuss which of the ‘facts’ they found interesting, and which they would like to explore and research further. This resource contains a series of factsheets with further information to accompany each game board ‘fact’, which also provide information about sources of more detailed information related to the topic. For every ‘fact’ in the game, pupils could explore: People – Historic figures and ordinary population Buildings – Public and private buildings in the Cardiff locality Transport – Roads, canals, railways, docks Links to Castell Coch – every piece of information in the game is linked to Castell Coch in some way – pupils could investigate those links and what they tell us about changes to people’s daily lives in the nineteenth century. Curriculum Links KS2 Literacy Framework – oracy across the curriculum – developing and presenting information and ideas – collaboration and discussion KS2 History – skills – chronological awareness – Pupils should be given opportunities to use timelines to sequence events.

  • Fragmentary Narration and Ambiguity in Heliodorus' Aethiopica
    What Charicles Knew: Fragmentary Narration and Ambiguity in Heliodorus’ Aethiopica BENEDEK KRUCHIÓ University of Cambridge Towards the end of the tenth and last book of Heliodorus’ Aethiopica, a character who was left behind by the protagonists in Delphi in Book Four makes a surpris- ing reappearance in Ethiopia: Charicles, the Greek foster-father of the heroine Charicleia, arrives in Meroe, where the royal couple reside, and demands his daughter back from king Hydaspes, who is her biological father. While Charicles’ resurfacing is in itself surprising,1 scholars have particularly been puzzled by the question what he knows about Charicleia when he enters the scene: when the girl and her lover Theagenes elope from Delphi, Charicles is aware of her Ethiopian background but not of her royal descent; however, according to the established reading of a short segment of the novel’s finale, he seems to know who her parents are when he brings forward his request. Heliodorean scholarship has heretofore contented itself with branding Cha- ricles’ differing states of knowledge as a striking inconsistency.2 I shall first show that this is not just in general an obviously unsatisfactory approach to a puzzling passage, but also highly unlikely to be an accurate explanation in the present case. My paper will proceed by presenting alternative solutions to this puzzle. The first one sticks to the conventional reading of the two abovementioned direct speeches, arguing firstly that the communicative line which results in Charicles’ acquisition of knowledge can be reconstructed, and secondly that certain narratological prop- erties of the Aethiopica invite the reader to make assumptions about unnarrated events like those which are necessary for explaining Charicles’ surprising state of ————— 1 According to Lowe 2003, 256, Charicles’ reappearance is ‘the novel’s final and most mas- terly programmed surprise’; cf.

Mission Statement Consistent with its Catholic identity and Mercy heritage, Mercyhurst University educates women and men in a culture where faith and reason flourish together, where beauty and power of the liberal arts combine with an appreciation for the dignity of work and a commitment to serving others.

Globally responsible, Globalization challenges us to learn how to steward the resources of the Earth wisely and to act in solidarity with its diverse peoples.
