Cornishness and Englishness: Nested Identities Or Incompatible Ideologies?
CORNISHNESS AND ENGLISHNESS: NESTED IDENTITIES OR INCOMPATIBLE IDEOLOGIES? Bernard Deacon (International Journal of Regional and Local History 5.2 (2009), pp.9-29) In 2007 I suggested in the pages of this journal that the history of English regional identities may prove to be ‘in practice elusive and insubstantial’.1 Not long after those words were written a history of the north east of England was published by its Centre for Regional History. Pursuing the question of whether the north east was a coherent and self-conscious region over the longue durée, the editors found a ‘very fragile history of an incoherent and barely self-conscious region’ with a sense of regional identity that only really appeared in the second half of the twentieth century.2 If the north east, widely regarded as the most coherent English region, lacks a historical identity then it is likely to be even more illusory in other regions. Although rigorously testing the past existence of a regional discourse and finding it wanting, Green and Pollard’s book also reminds us that history is not just about scientific accounts of the past. They recognise that history itself is ‘an important element in the construction of the region … Memory of the past is deployed, selectively and creatively, as one means of imagining it … We choose the history we want, to show the kind of region we want to be’.3 In the north east that choice has seemingly crystallised around a narrative of industrialization focused on the coalfield and the gradual imposition of a Tyneside hegemony over the centuries following 1650. -
And the Henrician Reformation
Robert Radcliffe’s Translation of Joannes Ravisius Textor’s Dialogi (1530) and the Henrician Reformation ágnes juhász-ormsby Memorial University Joannes Ravisius Textor’s Dialogi aliquot festivissimi (1530) exerted considerable influence in England in the 1530s. The English Textor movement was spurred primarily by the dialogues’ effectiveness in advancing and popularizing specific religious changes promoted by the government as part of the unfolding Henrician Reformation. Around 1540, the master of Jesus College School in Cambridge, Robert Radcliffe, dedicated a collection of prose translations of Textor’s three dialogues—A Governor, or of the Church (Ecclesia), The Poor Man and Fortune (Pauper et fortuna), and Death and the Goer by the Way (Mors et viator)—to Henry VIII. Radcliffe’s translations, especially the politically charged A Governor, demonstrate that not only his strategically selected source texts but also his method of translation helped him position himself in influential court circles and shape his image as a humanist scholar, schoolmaster, and translator.1 Les Dialogi aliquot festivissimi (1530) de Joannes Ravisius Textor ont exercé une influence importante en Angleterre pendant les années 1530. Le succès du mouvement anglais de Textor est principalement dû à l’efficacité avec laquelle les dialogues mettent de l’avant et popularisent des transformations religieuses spécifiques que promouvait le gouvernement dans le contexte du déploiement de la Réforme d’Henri VIII. Autour de 1540, le maître du Jesus College de Cambridge, Robert Radcliffe, a dédié une collection de traduction en prose des trois dialogues de Textor — A Governor, or of the Church (Ecclesia), The Poor Man and Fortune (Pauper et fortuna), et Death and the Goer by the Way (Mors et viator) — à Henri VIII. -

David Knowles
DAVID KNOWLES The Ecclesiastical History Society was founded in 1961 by the initiative and inspiration of Clifford Dugmore; and it was Professor Dugmore who invited David Knowles to lecture to the opening meet ing, and proposed his name for election as first President. To their friendship the Society owes much. Already in 1950 they were asso ciated in the Journal of Ecclesiastical History, and David Knowles remained a member of the Advisory Committee (from 1966 the Advisory Editorial Board) until his death. His first lecture to the Society was on 'The Medieval Archbishops of York';1 and his Presidential (1962) was a very characteristic critical survey in his best manner on 'Some recent work on early Benedictine history'.2 In our early conferences he was a familiar figure, an image of spiritual friend ship and scholarly aspiration to inspire his colleagues; we saw in him one of the great ecclesiastical historians of his day, and our friend. The outline of his life is familiar to readers of W. A. Pantin's appre ciation in The Historian and Character and other Essays (Cambridge 1963); and he himself described his formation as a historian in his lecture on 'Academic History'.3 'At school I was never, either in fact or in desire, an historian. I was a classic, and in my school days the only spell that bound me was that of great literature.' He went on to describe how he passed on from the classics and English poetry to the great works of literary history: Macaulay, Gibbon, Grote, Clarendon and many others. -
Britishness, What It Is and What It Could Be, Is
COUNTY, NATION, ETHNIC GROUP? THE SHAPING OF THE CORNISH IDENTITY Bernard Deacon If English regionalism is the dog that never barked then English regional history has in recent years been barely able to raise much more than a whimper.1 Regional history in Britain enjoyed its heyday between the late 1970s and late1990s but now looks increasingly threadbare when contrasted with the work of regional geographers. Like geographers, in earlier times regional historians busied themselves with two activities. First, they set out to describe social processes and structures at a regional level. The region, it was claimed, was the most convenient container for studying ‘patterns of historical development across large tracts of the English countryside’ and understanding the interconnections between social, economic, political, demographic and administrative history, enabling the researcher to transcend both the hyper-specialization of ‘national’ historical studies and the parochial and inward-looking gaze of English local history.2 Second, and occurring in parallel, was a search for the best boundaries within which to pursue this multi-disciplinary quest. Although he explicitly rejected the concept of region on the grounds that it was impossible comprehensively to define the term, in many ways the work of Charles Phythian-Adams was the culmination of this process of categorization. Phythian-Adams proposed a series of cultural provinces, supra-county entities based on watersheds and river basins, as broad containers for human activity in the early modern period. Within these, ‘local societies’ linked together communities or localities via networks of kinship and lineage. 3 But regions are not just convenient containers for academic analysis. -

The research combines book-based strategies and performative encounters with people and places, to build a rich, chorographic survey described in images, sound files, objects and texts. A key research problem – how to express the forensic fingerprint of that which is invisible in the historic record – is described as a poetics of uncertainty, a speculative response to information that teeters on the brink of what can be reliably known. This poetics combines multi-modal writing to communicate events in the life of the research, auto-ethnographically, from the point of view of an artist working in the academy. -

Chapter I Introduction A. Research Background
Comical aspects in nicholas udall’s Ralph roister doister (a mimetic approach) By Gigih Anggana Yuda C0301006 Chapter I Introduction A. Research Background Horace Walpole, the eighteenth-century man of letters, once observes that this world is a comedy to those that think and a tragedy to those that feel (Pickering and Hoeper, 1997: 1164). Actually, Walpole’s statement is only one of many definitions of comedy existing in the theory of literature. However, the statement mentioned is one way to understand comedy through someone’s way in viewing this life. It is because human can learn something worthy from the process of life, which in turn can be applied to face the life itself. Regardless to Walpole’s definition of comedy, it is needed to know that comedy is also form of literature genre found both in fiction and in drama. One of the examples is the drama named Ralph Roister Doister. The play entitled Ralph Roister Doister, which was written in 1554 by Nicholas Udall, was developed in the form of comedy. The term comedy itself has four subcategories of definition, romantic comedy, comedy of humours, comedy of manners, and farce. When the main sources of humor are the ludicrous 1 2 complication of love, the play is called a romantic comedy. It is called a comedy of humours when the emphasis is on the ridiculous foibles or characteristic of the blocking figures. When the play makes fun of the affectation, manners, and convention of human behavior, it is called a comedy of manners. It will be called a farce, later, whenever it achieves its effect through buffoonery, horseplay, and crude jokes (Pickering and Hoeper, 1997: 1165). -
