  • Monuments to British Monarchs in Dublin Before and After Independence
    Journal of Historical Geography, 28, 4 (2002) 508±533 doi:10.1006/jhge.2002.0441, available online at http://www.idealibrary.com on The construction and destruction of a colonial landscape: monuments to British monarchs in Dublin before and after independence Y. Whelan Where cities evolve in contentious political circumstances and make the transition from a colonial to a post-colonial state, aspects of the urban landscape such as public monuments, street nomenclature, buildings, city plans and urban design initiatives take on particular signi®cance. Collectively they demonstrate the fact that the city is the product of a struggle among con¯icting interest groups in search of dominion over an environment. As one group seeks dominance over the other the urban landscape often becomes the canvas upon which this power struggle ®nds expression. Public statues in particular serve as an important source for unravelling the geographies of broader political and cultural shifts. These issues are explored here with reference to Dublin City and the monuments erected to royal monarchs before the achievement of political independence in 1922, namely Kings William I (1701), George I (1722), George II (1758) and Queen Victoria (1908). The fate of such monuments in post-colonial Dublin and the ways in which the ¯edgling state and particular groups within it sought to express their new found power through both the of®cial and oftentimes wilful destruction of these royal statues is then examined. The paper illuminates the power of public monuments as symbolic sites of meaning and explores their role in the construction of a landscape of colonial power.

  • Historical Sketch of the College Historical Society (1770-2020)
    Historical Sketch of the College Historical Society (1770-2020) The Forerunners The College Historical Society sprang from two associations of a similar character which were founded in the middle of the eighteenth century: Burke’s Club and the Historical Club. The Club founded by Edmund Burke and a few of his fellow students is the earliest debating society composed of students of the University of which any definite record remains. The minute book of this club, a treasured possession of the College Historical Society, relates that the first meeting took place on Tuesday, April 21st, 1747, in a house in George’s Lane, now South Great George’s Street, the members present being Edmund Burke, Matthew Mohun, William Dennis, Andrew Buck, Richard Shackelton and Richard Ardesoif. Mohun, for his ill conduct and neglect was later “formally expelled the Society for ever.” The preamble to the Club’s laws stated its intention to provide “fair opportunities of correcting our taste, regulating and enriching our judgement, brightening our wit, and enlarging our knowledge, and of being serviceable to others in the same things. The business of the Club was to be “speeching, reading, writing and arguing, in Morality, History, Criticism, Politics and all the useful branches of philosophy”; the first law related to the conduct of members and ordained that ‘decency and good manners, virtue and religion, must guide their whole behaviour, and no word, gesture or action, contrary thereto, pass uncensured.’ Burke, who sat ssix times as President and twice as Censor, was the moving spirit and was never once absent from the meetings.

  • Telling It Like It Was... Illinois’ Elders Share Their Stories
    State of Illinois Pat Quinn, Governor Illinois Department on Aging Charles D. Johnson, Director Telling it like it was... Illinois’ elders share their stories Printed in collaboration with Acknowledgements This work has been made possible by the contributions of many. We would like to thank the following: Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Illinois for sponsoring the production of this booklet; The Coalition for Limited-English Speaking Elderly for researching and writing this booklet; The Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum for supplying historical photographs; The University of Texas Libraries, University of Texas at Austin, for supplying maps of the countries (www.lib.utexas.edu/maps); The National Trails System - Santa Fe, National Park Service, for the “Trail of Tears” map; And the generous people who provided photographs and their personal stories. Together in Illinois Dear Friends: As this little book attests, the history of Illinois is not about just one dominant group, but rather the stories of the many groups of people who have come together to make our state strong. In reading the book, I am struck by the strength of the peoples we are. It is a many-layered strength. The strength of our state and our America is found in the singular fortitude, the toughness, if you will, of the individuals who came to this state. They came by choice and in chains; they came first-class and steerage. They came by horseback, in covered wagons and in boxcars. Others, the native inhabitants, accommodated to the newcomers. But all of them, no matter how or when they arrived, adapted with courage and grace, accepting new neighbors and new conditions with an eye on the future and a willingness to sacrifice that is awesome to contemplate.
