It use one or cruel injustice,antegonism and dispara- h gement. Fer indeed were the author! who had any kind words for the unhappy 'chosen people”. History. The firtj mention,referred to,is an allusion to 25.2 " them round in Bede'slncclesiastical Historx(iritten in ?31. The reference has neither literary or historical merit. Is is given simply because it is the first,and because it has.the significance,that is-a type. It’has to do with a controversy ’ that hsszraged between British and Banish monks upon the highly importsni question or the manner or cutting the monkish tonsnre and or the heaping of Easter. The Romana,desirous or covering their British brothers with inramy accused them or the crimgzihat once in seven years they concurred with the Jews in the celebration at the Easter festival. zg>rhe '8eriousness' or this charge led doubtless-to the edict,§uh~ a lished nine years later by Bcgbright,Archbishop or York,that 'no Christian should presume to Judaize,or be present at Jewish resets!

Obviously the first care in an effort such as this is to define its 11mm In all manner of art it is difficult to draw hard and fast lines of demarcation. In literature, as in music and the plastic arts, the various schools, periods and tendencies merge gradually into each other. The exact point of . the departure of the one or the advent of the other is not defi— nitely determinable. host divisions are arbitrary, yet there is sound reason for them. Thus in this consideration of the Jew in English literature as subject and as author, the writer has de— termined on a number of limitations, which, though they may ap- pear to be arbitrarily placed, yet he trustsare not without sound reason. The scope of the subject and the method of treat- , sent have been determined with the view to bring out the purpose l of the work, viz: to Show, on the one hand, what has been the attitude of the British nation, as expressed by its writers, , toward the Jews at various periOds of their common history, that influence the Jews have thus unconsciously had upon its litera- ture; and on the other hand, what influence they hate consciously 3 exeruised by their own contributions to this literature. An ele- i rent of national life that can add to the Canterbury Tales, that i can give a Shylock and a Sheva to the stage, 3 Rebecca, 3 Fagin g and a Deronda to fiction, and innumerable impulses to poetic flight, is no slight one. A community that ia.scarce generation can produce an Aguilar, a Beaconsfield, Zangwill, a Lee, a Gollancz, a Jacdbs, and an Abrahams, not to mention a. host of lesser lights, is to be rechnned with. Ordinarily a literature is coextensive with the language in which it is written. Speaking broadly,German literature compri— ses that which is written in the German language, as French litera— ture that which is written in the French language. In the present instance however English literature is not to be considered coex- tensive with the English language. The first limitation is that :.in the phrase I'English literature”, the qualifying adjective re— fers to a national and not a lingual differentiation. The lit- erature of America, though it is English in tongue, is not consid— ered. Secondly,the qualification while national is not political. The literary productions of the vast and numerous provinces and dependencies of the British Empire are not included. The mater» ial is confined to that which has been put forth by the English people themselves, whether it be non-Jewish writers, whose treat— ment of Jews or Jewish themes is considered,or Jewish writers, whose contributions to the store—house of literary treasures are reviewed. ’Even thus restricted there is no lack_of quantity, for the people.who have created an empire on whose flag the sun never sets, hare produced a literature whose wealth in north and size is second to bone. The next elimination is that of the Bible.

  • The Horan Family Diaspora Since Leaving Ireland 191 Years Ago
    A Genealogical Report on the Descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock by A.L. McDevitt Introduction The purpose of this report is to identify the descendants of Michael Horan and Mary Minnock While few Horans live in the original settlement locations, there are still many people from the surrounding areas of Caledon, and Simcoe County, Ontario who have Horan blood. Though heavily weigh toward information on the Albion Township Horans, (the descendants of William Horan and Honorah Shore), I'm including more on the other branches as information comes in. That is the descendants of the Horans that moved to Grey County, Ontario and from there to Michigan and Wisconsin and Montana. I also have some information on the Horans that moved to Western Canada. This report was done using Family Tree Maker 2012. The Genealogical sites I used the most were Ancestry.ca, Family Search.com and Automatic Genealogy. While gathering information for this report I became aware of the importance of getting this family's story written down while there were still people around who had a connection with the past. In the course of researching, I became aware of some differences in the original settlement stories. I am including these alternate versions of events in this report, though I may be personally skeptical of the validity of some of the facts presented. All families have myths. I feel the dates presented in the Land Petitions of Mary Minnock and the baptisms in the County Offaly, Ireland, Rahan Parish registers speak for themselves. Though not a professional Genealogist, I have the obligation to not mislead other researchers.

  • Schomberg" from Liverpool to Melbourne in 1855
    DIARY OF THOMAS ANGOVE Passenger on the Clipper ship "Schomberg" from Liverpool to Melbourne in 1855. Extract from the remains of his Diary. NB. This was the last voyage of the Colonial Clipper, Schomberg. In 1855, the Schomberg, skippered by the tough, courageous and quick-tempered Captain James “Bully” Forbes, set forth to establish a new England-Australia sailing record. When the ship he once described as "the noblest that ever floated on water" was drifting to disaster on the rocks west of Bass Strait, he strangely seemed to lose interest and opted for the latter destination in his famous signal - "Melbourne or Hell In Sixty Days". Why we do not know. (From BHP "History of the Bass Strait" Series.) - - - One of the men is much elevated by being made President of the Mess and he does all the dirty work such as clean knives and forks, empty the slops for the ladies, etc. and this he does with pleasure to be called "Mr President". The other, the filibuster of the lot, has been exposed to the destroying hand of time for his hair, which was once a fine carroty colour has flown from the top of his head and has reappeared on each side of his face and chin in abundance which puts one in mind of a Southcotte. The other is half-woman and does not figure so high as the former. The weather is truly delightful with a nice breeze. We are in the Trade Winds and tomorrow we hope to be in the Tropics. Our latitude today is 25 17`.

  • Berghahn Books
    Berghahn Books Turpin Distribution The Enemy on Display The Second World War in Eastern European Museums Description: Eastern European museums represent traumatic events of World War II, such as the Siege of Leningrad, the Warsaw Uprisings, and the Bombardment of Dresden, in ways that depict the enemy in particular ways. This image results from the interweaving of historical representations, cultural stereotypes and beliefs, political discourses, and the dynamics of exhibition narratives. This book presents a useful methodology for examining museum images and provides a critical analysis of the role historical museums play in the contemporary world. As the catastrophes of World War II still exert an enormous influence on the national identities of Russians, Poles, and Germans, museum exhibits can thus play an important role in this process. ...the book highlights the fascinating issue of displaying war, and, through display, defining and exposing certain concepts of national and local identity. In that sense the volume is an important contribution to the growing literature on Central and East European museums in particular, and the issue of presentation of war in museums in general. Canadian Slavonic Papers Certain key passages make very important and significant points about the depiction of the past in the recently ‘museified’ Eastern European countries. The focus on Dresden, Warsaw, ISBN: 9781785337604 and Leningrad/St. Petersburg works very well as each thematically driven case study complements each other and offers new ways of understanding images of the enemy in Published: 30-12-17 historicized museum depictions.

Willem III gehekeld en verheerlijkt. Bij den aanvang van dit tijdperk was Prins Willem III bijna onbeperkt leider van onze binnen- en buitenlandsche politiek. Die macht had hij te danken aan de gelukkige uitkomst van zijn krijgsbeleid in den, aanvankelijk wanhopig schijnenden, strijd tegen eene overmacht als die van Lodewijk XIV, en aan de goede verstandhouding, die er met Engeland ontstaan was door zijn huwelijk met Maria Stuart, de oudste dochter van Jacobus, hertog van York, en vermoedelijk troonopvolger van zijn broeder Karel II. Wel had hij niet kunnen verhinderen, dat de Staten-Generaal in 1678 tegen zijn zin met Lodewijk XIV te Nijmegen vrede hadden gesloten en dat die vrede ook door onze dichters was bejubeld, o.a. ook door KATHARINA LESCAILJE, die daarbij merkwaardig getrouw taal, toon en dichtvorm van Vondel's zang op den vrede van Munster wist te volgen, maar gedurende het tienjarig vredestijdperk, dat nu volgde, wist Willem III toch zijn wil grootendeels te doen zegevieren, hetzij door de verheffing zijner gunstelingen en oogendienaars tot hooge staatsambten, hetzij, en niet zelden, door wetsverzetting in steden, die zich niet in allen deele naar zijn wil schikten.

  • Stevenson, Conrad and the Proto-Modernist Novel Eric Massie
    UNIVERSITY OF STIRLING Stevenson, Conrad and the Proto-Modernist Novel Eric Massie A Doctoral Thesis Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of Stirling February 2002 ©Eric Massie 2002 Abstract This thesis argues that Robert Louis Stevenson's South Seas writings locate him alongside Joseph Conrad on the 'strategic fault line' described by the Marxist critic Fredric Jameson that delineates the interstitial area between nineteenth-century adventure fiction and early Modernism. Stevenson, like Conrad, mounts an attack on the assumptions of the grand narrative of imperialism and, in texts such as 'The Beach of Falesa' and The Ebb Tide, offers late-Victorian readers a critical view of the workings of Empire. The present stud)' seeks to analyse the common interests of two important writers as they adopt innovative literary methodologies within, and in response to, the context of changing perceptions of the effects of European influence upon the colonial subject. Acknowledgements lowe a huge debt of gratitude to my Supervisor, Professor Douglas Mack for his advice and support during the course of the research and subsequent writing up of this thesis. Professor Mack has encouraged my tentative steps in scholarship and has gently curbed my excesses. The debt lowe him is immeasurable. Professor Neil Keeble, Head of Department of English Studies during my period of research at the University of Stirling, has been generous in his support of my work in a number of ways. He encouraged me to develop and to teach an Honours Option: The Fiction ofRobert Louis Stevenson which has proved to be a successful component of the Departmental portfolio.
