Chronologically Lewis Joel D. Heck All notes are done in the present tense of the verb for consistency. Start and end dates of term are those officially listed in the Oxford calendar. An email from Robin Darwall-Smith on 11/26/2008 explains the discrepancies between official term dates and the notes of C. S. Lewis in his diary and letters: “Term officially starts on a Thursday, but then 1st Week (out of 8) starts on the following Sunday (some might say Saturday, but it ought to be Sunday). The week in which the start of term falls is known now as „0th Week‟. I don‟t know how far back that name goes, but I‟d be surprised if it wasn‟t known in Lewis‟s day. The system at the start of term which I knew in the 1980s - and which I guess was there in Lewis‟s time too - was that the undergraduates had to be in residence by the Thursday of 0th Week; the Friday was set aside for start of term Collections (like the ones memorably described in Lewis‟s diary at Univ.!), and for meetings with one‟s tutors. Then after the weekend lectures and tutorials started in earnest on the Monday of 1st Week.” Email from Robin Darwall-Smith on 11/27/2008: “The two starts to the Oxford term actually have names. There‟s the start of term, in midweek, and then the start of „Full Term‟, on the Sunday - and is always Sunday. Lectures and tutorials start up on the following day. Now the start of term, which nowadays always falls on a Thursday, back in the 1950s and 1960s might fall on almost any day of the week, with no obvious reason why. This is what I wasn‟t expecting to find. So, according to the University Calendar, Hilary Term 1950 happened to start on the Tuesday, with Full Term starting on the Sunday. Lewis has slipped up slightly in saying that Full Term started on the Saturday, rather than the Sunday, but the confusion, you will agree, is a pretty venial one. So I guess that the best thing to say here is that Lewis was talking, rather elliptically, of the start of Full Term in Hilary Term 1950.” “On what happened in those few days between the start of term and the start of Full Term, I would imagine that Collections tended to be sat towards the end of it - more time for revising, for one thing. In any event, in my time, most people tended to come up anyway on the Sunday at the start of 0th Week - easier for parents to drop us off. I don‟t know how true this was in the 1950s, though. However, there was always plenty to do in those first days of term apart from work.” Major changes in Jack‟s life are indicated by bold print. Underlined text takes its cue from general statements Jack made at various times about the things he did regularly. For example, on June 14, 1916, Jack makes the comment that the 10:00-11:00 p.m. is the time when he normally writes to Arthur Greeves. On that date, Jack spent time with visitors to the Kirkpatrick house instead of writing to Arthur. Therefore, we extrapolate from this comment to turn Jack‟s writing time into the ten o‟clock hour. While he does not indicate the time of writing in other weeks, whenever he writes to Arthur during the Kirkpatrick era, we indicate that as 10:00 p.m. and underline the text. In a couple of places, the exact time of writing is indicated, so that time is not underlined in those cases. 1895 June 16 Sunday. Warren Hamilton Lewis is born. 1896 June 16 Tuesday.

    Robertson Davies Fifth Business Fifth Business Definition: Those Roles Which, Being Neither Those of Hero Nor Heroine, Confidant

    Robertson Davies Fifth Business Fifth Business Definition: Those roles which, being neither those of Hero nor Heroine, Confidante nor Villain, but which were nonetheless essential to bring about the Recognition or the denouement, were called the Fifth Business in drama and opera companies organized according to the old style; the player who acted these parts was often referred to as Fifth Business. —Tho. Overskou, Den Daaske Skueplads I. Mrs. Dempster 1 My lifelong involvement with Mrs. Dempster began at 8 o’clock p.m. on the 27th of December, 1908, at which time I was ten years and seven months old. I am able to date the occasion with complete certainty because that afternoon I had been sledding with my lifelong friend and enemy Percy Boyd Staunton, and we had quarrelled, because his fine new Christmas sled would not go as fast as my old one. Snow was never heavy in our part of the world, but this Christmas it had been plentiful enough almost to cover the tallest spears of dried grass in the fields; in such snow his sled with its tall runners and foolish steering apparatus was clumsy and apt to stick, whereas my low-slung old affair would almost have slid on grass without snow. The afternoon had been humiliating for him, and when Percy as humiliated he was vindictive. His parents were rich, his clothes were fine, and his mittens were of skin and came from a store in the city, whereas mine were knitted by my mother; it was manifestly wrong, therefore, that his splendid sled should not go faster than mine, and when such injustice showed itself Percy became cranky.

    Howard J. Garber Letter Collection This collection was the gift of Howard J. Garber to Case Western Reserve University from 1979 to 1993. Dr. Howard Garber, who donated the materials in the Howard J. Garber Manuscript Collection, is a former Clevelander and alumnus of Case Western Reserve University. Between 1979 and 1993, Dr. Garber donated over 2,000 autograph letters, documents and books to the Department of Special Collections. Dr. Garber's interest in history, particularly British royalty led to his affinity for collecting manuscripts. The collection focuses primarily on political, historical and literary figures in Great Britain and includes signatures of all the Prime Ministers and First Lords of the Treasury. Many interesting items can be found in the collection, including letters from Elizabeth Barrett Browning and Robert Browning Thomas Hardy, Queen Victoria, Prince Albert, King George III, and Virginia Woolf.

INDEX OF PERSONS page 300 INDEX OF ARTISTS page 306 PREFACE HE first and only catalogue of the collection of medals formed by Gustave Dreyfus appeared in I93 I. Its author was Sir George Hill, who had studied the collection in depth when it was still T in Dreyfus' hands in the Boulevard Malesherbes in Paris. In a prefatory note, Hill observed that 'keenly as Gustave Dreyfus appreciated all his beautiful things, he had a particularly soft place in his heart for the Italian medals, and ... he would have agreed with the German critic who declared that the medallic art was par excellence the art of the Renaissance, the expression of the quintessence of the spirit of that age.' The preface continues with the tribute: 'His was perhaps the finest collection that has ever been in the hands of a private collector - the "perhaps" might be omitted, but that it is difficult to range the great collections in a true perspective.' Thanks to the Kress Foundation, the Dreyfus collection of medals was not dispersed, like so many other medallic collections, but is preserved intact in the National Gallery of Art in Washington, where it bears out Hill's claim to be regarded as the finest private collection of medals ever to have been formed.

    Reprinted from the American Society of Arms Collectors Bulletin 50:2-21 Additional articles available at http://americansocietyofarmscollectors.org/resources/articles/ An Introduction to the History of the Wallace Collection D.A. Edge, B.A. Although the collection of objets d'art at Hertford House bears the name of Sir Richard Wallace, much of it, of course, was inherited from his father the 4th Marquis of Hertford (1). The 4th Marquis, in fact, can be said to have 'founded' the armoury in the Wallace Collection by purchasing a large quantity of oriental arms in the last decade of his life, from 1860 onwards. These were installed in his chateau at Baga- telle in Paris (2) where he lived until his death in 1870. In these acquisitions, the 4th Marquis was following the prevailing fashion for 'orientalism,' which was linked with the Romantic movement which swept through France (and, indeed, Europe) in the middle and later part of the 19th century. Wealthy and cultured men created oriental rooms or displays in their great houses, hanging the walls with By the very nature of its formation, such an armoury Eastern arms, armour, paintings and tapestries, to conjure would tend not to contain the earlier, plainer and (to our up the spirit and mystery of the East. As well as oriental modern eyes, perhaps) finer pieces. The Wallace Collection arms and armour, therefore, the 4th Marquis collected is fortunate, however, in possessing at least one early blade paintings of Eastern subjects (such as this by Vernet) (3), the quality of which is probably unrivalled anywhere in the and a vast and varied assortment of oriental bric-a-brac, world.

Cary.: James Stephens at Colby College 224 Colby Library Quarterly shadow and symbolize death: the ship sailing to the North Pole is the Vehicle of Death, and the captain of the ship is Death himself. Stephens here makes use of traditional motifs. for the purpose of creating a psychological study. These stories are no doubt an attempt at something quite distinct from what actually came to absorb his mind - Irish saga material. It may to my mind be regretted that he did not write more short stories of the same kind as the ones in Etched in Moonlight, the most poignant of which is "Hunger," a starvation story, the tragedy of which is intensified by the lucid, objective style. Unfortunately the scope of this article does not allow a treat­ ment of the rest of Stephens' work, which I hope to discuss in another essay. I have here dealt with some aspects of the two middle periods of his career, and tried to give significant glimpses of his life in Paris, and his .subsequent years in Dublin. In 1915 he left wartime Paris to return to a revolutionary Dub­ lin, and in 1925 he left an Ireland suffering from the after­ effects of the Civil War.

    The Remembrance Project 2018 the Barnham Broom and Upper Yare

    The Remembrance Project 2018 The Barnham Broom and Upper Yare Group of Parishes consists of the following Churches & Villages: Wramplingham Barford Barnham Broom Carleton Forehoe Kimberley Hardingham Cranworth Southburgh Letton Reymerston Garvestone Thuxton Whinburgh Westfield Runhall Coston Across the villages there are several war memorials, put up to honour the fallen in WWI, and added to after WWII. As the centenary of the end of WWI approaches in November 2018, there are many events organised within our villages and county. As part of this, in collaboration with other events organised, is a plan to gather together the stories of the lives of the men named on these war memorials, to refresh the memory, and remember the sacrifice they gave so that we could live in the freedom and peace we have today. To do this, volunteers are invited to research one or more names on the attached list of all those named on all of the village memorials, to gather together their stories for publication, and hopefully to enter into memorial books in each of the churches for posterity. We aim to learn from each other as we do this, sharing our findings with others in our community, to create a living memorial. If you wish to take part, please select a name from the list below and research that person using the attached guide to help. If a name is ‘greyed out’ in means it has already been selected for research. Please gather your research together in a short biography of the soldier (approx. 200 words), for publication. Once selected, please let the co-ordinator know so that the name can be marked as being researched.
