    ENGLIT 1199: London Across History, Literature, & Film CAPA LONDON PROGRAM Spring 2019 Faculty name : Peter Odell Campbell E-mail : [email protected] Class times : M TBD Classroom location : TBD Office Hours : M TBD & by appointment Course Description The course is designed to introduce students to spatial history of London through literary and cinematic texts by famous auteurs, including Oscar Wilde, Arthur Conan Doyle, M. NourbeSe Philip, and Zadie Smith. The course will be visited by at least one author or director working in contemporary London. In London Across History, we undertake an historical tour of London, with these and other great writers and film-makers as our guides. We’ll start with a walking tour of the Inns of Court, and the world of eighteenth-century London and law, experi- enced through the lens of M. NourbeSe Philip’s experimental poetry. Our next stop will be the historic house and museum of Sir John Soane—a unique window into the life and arts of London’s imperial elite, and the Romantic poetry of Byron and Blake. We’ll visit a one-of-a-kind tribute to Oscar Wilde, in a pop-up museum open only until March 2019, before moving into the nineteenth century world of detective fiction through Arthur Conan Doyle’s stories of Sherlock Holmes. The second half of the course will continue our considerations of race and empire with screenings of WWI cinema, a visit to the Imperial War Museum, and an investigation into London’s labor and working-class history through the BBC adaptation of Howard’s End and Zadie Smith’s On Beauty.

  • England and Wales
    UK – ENGLAND AND WALES Official name Judges Council of England and Wales in original language Official name in English Judges Council of England and Wales Judicial Office, Room C110, Royal Courts of Justice, Strand, London Address WC2A 2LL Telephone number +44 (0) 20 7947 7752 Website www.judiciary.gov.uk e-mail [email protected] The Judges’ Council of England and Wales was first set up under the Judicature Act 1873. It was chaired by the Lord Chancellor and all the judges of the Supreme Court were members. The Council continued to function until 1981. At that time a new Judges’ Council was set up chaired by the Lord Chief Justice with a smaller membership of the more senior judges. In 2002 the Council adopted a written Constitution and has subsequently widened its membership to include representatives from all ranks of the Brief history judiciary, including the Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal, the High Court, the Circuit and District Benches, the Magistracy and the Tribunals. In March, 2006 the Council further revised its Constitution and membership following the coming into effect of the Constitutional Reform Act 2005. This Act and the Concordat of 26th January 2006 between the Lord Chancellor and Lord Chief Justice vest in the latter very considerable responsibilities in respect of the judiciary and of the business of the Courts of England and Wales. The Lord Chief Justice exercises these responsibilities through the Judges’ Council and the Judicial Executive Board. It has no constitutional status but is protected by legislation in the Constitutional or legal form of the Judicature Act 1873 and the Constitutional Reform Act status/basis 2005.

  • A Veritable Revolution: the Court of Criminal Appeal in English
    A VERITABLE REVOLUTION: THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL IN ENGLISH CRIMINAL HISTORY 1908-1958 A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS by CECILE ARDEN PHILLIPS B.A. University of Missouri-Kansas City, 1986 Kansas City, Missouri 2012 © 2012 CECILE ARDEN PHILLIPS ALL RIGHTS RESERVED A VERITABLE REVOLUTION: THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEAL IN ENGLISH CRIMINAL HISTORY 1908-1958 Cecile Arden Phillips, Candidate for the Masters of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012 ABSTRACT In a historic speech to the House of Commons on April 17, 1907, British Attorney General, John Lawson Walton, proposed the formation of what was to be the first court of criminal appeal in English history. Such a court had been debated, but ultimately rejected, by successive governments for over half a century. In each debate, members of the judiciary declared that a court for appeals in criminal cases held the potential of destroying the world-respected English judicial system. The 1907 debates were no less contentious, but the newly elected Liberal government saw social reform, including judicial reform, as their highest priority. After much compromise and some of the most overwrought speeches in the history of Parliament, the Court of Criminal Appeal was created in August 1907 and began hearing cases in May 1908. A Veritable Revolution is a social history of the Court’s first fifty years. There is no doubt, that John Walton and the other founders of the Court of Criminal Appeal intended it to provide protection from the miscarriage of justice for English citizens convicted of criminal offenses.

Savannah Shipman, M.A. Western Michigan University, 2016 It has often been assumed that medieval women, noble or common, had little or no agency, were forced into submissive roles by dominating men, and had little control over their day-to-day lives. Theoretical statements about law served to support these assumptions as they forbade women from prosecuting men for any crimes other than the murder of her husband or for rape.
