  • Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle
    THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Sarah Michelle Haughey August 2011 © 2011 Sarah Michelle Haughey THE ‘BESTLI’ OUTLAW: WILDERNESS AND EXILE IN OLD AND MIDDLE ENGLISH LITERATURE Sarah Michelle Haughey, Ph. D. Cornell University 2011 This dissertation, The ‘Bestli’ Outlaw: Wilderness and Exile in Old and Middle English Literature explores the reasons for the survival of the beast-like outlaw, a transgressive figure who highlights tensions in normative definitions of human and natural, which came to represent both the fears and the desires of a people in a state of constant negotiation with the land they inhabited. Although the outlaw’s shelter in the wilderness changed dramatically from the dense and menacing forests of Anglo-Saxon England to the bright, known, and mapped greenwood of the late outlaw romances and ballads, the outlaw remained strongly animalistic, other, and liminal, in strong contrast to premodern notions of what it meant to be human and civilized. I argue that outlaw narratives become particularly popular and poignant at moments of national political and ecological crisis—as they did during the Viking attacks of the Anglo-Saxon period, the epoch of intense natural change following the Norman Conquest, and the beginning of the market revolution at the end of the Middle Ages. Figures like the Anglo-Saxon resistance fighter Hereward, the exiled Marcher lord Fulk Fitz Waryn, and the brutal yet courtly Gamelyn and Robin Hood, represent a lost England imagined as pristine and forested.

  • FPS/Q2371/14A/16 Decision Dated 7 September 2018
    Appeal Decision by Alan Beckett BA MSc MIPROW an Inspector appointed by the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Decision date: 7 September 2018 Appeal Ref: FPS/Q2371/14A/16 This Appeal is made under Section 53 (5) and Paragraph 4 (1) of Schedule 14 of the Wildlife and Countryside Act 1981 (the 1981 Act) against the decision of Lancashire County Council (the Council) not to make an Order under section 53 (2) of that Act. The application dated 6 March 2017 was refused by the Council on 3 October 2017. The Appellant claims that the definitive map and statement of public rights of way should be modified by upgrading footpaths 54 and 55 in the parish of Coppull to bridleways (shown by bold broken line on the plan attached to this decision). Summary of Decision: The Appeal is dismissed. Preliminary Matters 1. I have been directed by the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to determine this appeal under Section 53 (5) and Paragraph 4 (1) of Schedule 14 of the 1981 Act. 2. This appeal has been determined on the basis of the papers submitted. Main Issues 3. The need for an Order to be considered when evidence is submitted in support of a claim that a public right of way which is already shown in the definitive map is subject to additional public rights is dealt with under section 53 of the 1981 Act. Section 53 (3) (c) (ii) of the 1981 Act provides that an Order should be made on the discovery of evidence which, when considered with all other relevant evidence available, shows that a highway shown in the map and statement as a highway of a particular description ought to be there shown as a highway of a different description.

Signature Date: 17/12/2020 ii iii ABSTRACT Since the development of the superhero genre in the late 1930s it has been a contentious area of cultural discourse, particularly concerning its depictions of gender politics. A major critique of the genre is that it simply represents an adolescent male power fantasy; and presents a world view that valorises masculinist individualism.

Some artists may glorify that, but other artists either decry it or offer it as a tragic reality. In hip-hop trends build off of music and music builds off of trends in a cyclical manner.

  • Notes on the Parish Church of St. Wilfred, Standish Introduction
    NOTES ON THE PARISH CHURCH OF ST. WILFRED, STANDISH By William Frederick Price Read I7th November 1904 INTRODUCTION,. RAPT in the mist of unwritten history there W is some tradition that long before the coming of the Normans, Standish was a fortified station or camp of some importance. Lying, as it does, on an elevated plateau 370 feet above sea- level, on the direct route of the Roman road between Wigan and Walton-le-Dale, there may be some truth in the tradition. The fact that the Romans were acquainted with the use of coal is now fully established, and so great an authority on mining as Professor Hull considers there is good evidence that they discovered and worked the Arley seam which crops out along the banks of the river Douglas between Standish and Wigan. Years ago, while driving a tunnel to divert the course of the river, this coal seam of 6 feet in thickness was found to have been mined in a manner hitherto altogether unknown. "It was excavated into a series of polygonal chambers, with vertical walls opening into each other by short passages, and, on the whole, presenting on a ground plan something of the appearance of a honeycomb. The chambers were regular in size and form, and were altogetherdifferent from anything within the ex­ perience of the miners of the district; there is some- 1905 SIDE, SOUTH CHURCH, STANDISH 238. p. face To Parish Church of 'St. Wilfred, Standish 239 thing in the symmetrical arrangement and regu­ larity of the works peculiarly Roman, reminding one of their tesselated pavements."- The .Coalfields of Great Britain,^.
