Though it took to the end of the seven- teenth century for the modem law of nations, based on the idea of state sover- eignty, to be formed, the roots of many of its concepts and institutions can be situated in this period2 . While all this might be true in retrospect, it would be by far overstretching the point to state that the victory of the emerging sovereign state over the medieval system was a foregone conclusion for the politicians and lawyers of * I am greatly indebted to professor James Crawford (Cambridge), professor Karl- Heinz Ziegler (Hamburg) and Mrs. Norah Engmann-Gallagher for their comments and suggestions, as well as to the board and staff of the Lauterpacht Research Centre for Inter- national Law at the University of Cambridge for their hospitality during the period I worked there on this article. -

Chapter IV - Matt, Harry, and the Idea of a Patriot King 47. Conclusion - ‘Britannia Rules the Waves’ – A seventy-year legacy 63. Bibliography 67. ii Note on Dates: The dates used in the following are those given in the sources from which each particular reference comes, and do not make any attempt to standardize on the basis of either the Old or New System. It should also be noted that whilst Englishmen used the Old System at home, it was common (and Matthew Prior is no exception) for them to use the New System when on the Continent. iii Introduction It is often the way with historical memory that the man seen by his contemporaries as an important powerbroker is remembered by posterity as little more than a minor figure. As is the case with many men of the late-Seventeenth- and early-Eighteenth-Centuries, Matthew Prior’s (1664-1721) is hardly a household name any longer. Yet in the minds of his contemporaries and in the political life of his country even after his death his importance was, and is, very clear. Since then he has been the subject of three full-length biographies, published in 1914, 1921, and 1939, all now out of print.1 Although of low birth Prior managed to attract the attention of wealthy patrons in both literary and diplomatic circles and was, despite his humble station, blessed with an education that was to be the foundation of his later success. -
Anneke Jans' Maternal Grandfather and Great Grandfather
Anneke Jans’ Maternal Grandfather and Great Grandfather By RICIGS member, Gene Eiklor I have been writing a book about my father’s ancestors. Anneke Jans is my 10th Great Grandmother, the “Matriarch of New Amsterdam.” I am including part of her story as an Appendix to my book. If it proves out, Anneke Jans would be the granddaughter of Willem I “The Silent” who started the process of making the Netherlands into a republic. Since the records and info about Willem I are in the hands of the royals and government (the Royals are buried at Delft under the tomb of Willem I) I took it upon myself to send the Appendix to Leiden University at Leiden. Leiden University was started by Willem I. An interesting fact is that descendants of Anneke have initiated a number of unsuccessful attempts to recapture Anneke’s land on which Trinity Church in New York is located. In Chapter 2 – Dutch Settlement, page 29, Anneke Jans’ mother was listed as Tryntje (Catherine) Jonas. Each were identified as my father’s ninth and tenth Great Grandmothers, respectively. Since completion of that and succeeding chapters I learned from material shared by cousin Betty Jean Leatherwood that Tryntje’s husband had been identified. From this there is a tentative identification of Anneke’s Grandfather and Great Grandfather. The analysis, the compilation and the writings on these finds were done by John Reynolds Totten. They were reported in The New York Genealogical and Biographical Record, Volume LVI, No. 3, July 1925i and Volume LVII, No. 1, January 1926ii Anneke is often named as the Matriarch of New Amsterdam. -
Volume 13 Number 078 Fronde, Early Modern French Social Revolt – I
Volume 13 Number 078 Fronde, Early Modern French Social Revolt – I Lead: From 1648 through 1653, early modern French society was in turmoil that in its various phases was known as the Fronde. Intro.: A Moment in Time with Dan Roberts. Content: The Fronde is a “slingshot” a device with which the urban French broke the windows of the city and the status quo of early modern France. It was both the symbol and the name of the mayhem that gripped France late in the transition years between the death of Louis XIII and the consolidation of power by his son King Louis XIV, the Sun-King. For the sake of clarity some scholars have divided the period into three distinct outbursts, the Fronde Parlementaire, the royal family Fronde, and the religious Fronde, but in reality the Frondes constituted a far more complex phenomenon. They animated a variety of resistive impulses and directed open public anger and rebellion against the oligarchic institutions of French society, but most especially, the absolutist tendencies of the monarchy. The Frondes struck out against a monarchy that was reaching for absolute power, authority without constitutional or social restraint. As late as the high medieval period, the French monarch was pretty much a joke with little direct power beyond Domaine Royal, the lands he actually controlled. In an era when land was power, the French monarch was relatively weak, often holding less land than some of his vassals, France’s most powerful nobles. This began to change in the 1400s and by 1600 the power of the French monarch was formidable. -
Our Boundaries
Our Boundaries. 4i us how much we have yet to do to fill up our territory. Even Russia has ten times as many inhabitants to the square mile as British America, It is true that much of our country possesses a climate severe in winter, but we have a rich Great West, as yet not opened up to the husbandman, while the mineral wealth even of the far North is alluring. We cannot better cbnclude this article than by transcribing some words of the Right Rev. Dr. Mullock, Bishop of Newfoundland:—" Suppose America to "be the old country and Europe the new, and that the tide of emigration set Eastward, it would "naturally be directed to the banks of the Garonne, the Tagus, the Guadalquiver, or to the shores of " Italy or Sicily, not to the Elbe or the Baltic. Such is the case with us at present—the tide of " European emigration sets towards the broad rich lands of the Unite States. But let these get filled "in * * *_ it will be as difficult to get a living there as now in the crowded countries of Europe. *'When taxation will be increased, perhaps large standing armies kept on foot; then the people of " these northern regions, increasing and multiplying, will cultivate their now waste lands as do the " Swedes, the Danes, the Prussians. Let us consider what. British America was*fifty years ago, " what it is now, and what it may be a century hence " OUR BOUNDARIES. The Dominion of Canada is the legitimate heir to the old French Empire in North America, and although the inheritance has come down to us sadly diminished in extent, we may indulge ourselves in a condensed review of its ancient limits. -
Soufflenheim Jewish Records
SOUFFLENHEIM JEWISH RECORDS Soufflenheim Genealogy Research and History www.soufflenheimgenealogy.com There are four main types of records for Jewish genealogy research in Alsace: • Marriage contracts beginning in 1701. • 1784 Jewish census. • Civil records beginning in 1792. • 1808 Jewish name declaration records. Inauguration of a synagogue in Alsace, attributed to Georg Emmanuel Opitz (1775-1841), Jewish Museum of New York. In 1701, Louis XIV ordered all Jewish marriage contracts to be filed with Royal Notaries within 15 days of marriage. Over time, these documents were registered with increasing frequency. In 1784, Louis XVI ordered a general census of all Jews in Alsace. Jews became citizens of France in 1791 and Jewish civil registration begins from 1792 onwards. To avoid problems raised by the continuous change of the last name, Napoleon issued a Decree in 1808 ordering all Jews to adopt permanent family names, a practice already in use in some places. In every town where Jews lived, the new names were registered at the Town Hall. They provide a comprehensive census of the French Jewish population in 1808. Keeping registers of births, marriage, and deaths is not part of the Jewish religious tradition. For most people, the normal naming practice was to add the father's given name to the child's. An example from Soufflenheim is Samuel ben Eliezer whose father is Eliezer ben Samuel or Hindel bat Eliezer whose father is Eliezer ben Samuel (ben = son of, bat = daughter of). Permanent surnames were typically used only by the descendants of the priests (Kohanim) and Levites, a Jewish male whose descent is traced to Levi. -

Hudson Professor of History and Medieval Studies Thesis Supervisor/Honors Adviser Robert Edwards Professor of English and Comparative Literature Thesis Reader * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The beginning of the Hundred Years War came about from relentless conflict between France and England, with roots that can be traced the whole way to the 11th century, following the Norman invasion of England. These periods of engagement were the result of English nobles both living in and possessing land in northwest France. In their efforts to prevent further bloodshed, the monarchs began to engage in marriage diplomacy; by sending a young princess to a rival country, the hope would be that her native people would be unwilling to wage war on a royal family that carried their own blood. While this method temporarily succeeded, the tradition would create serious issues of inheritance, and the beginning of the last phase of the Hundred Years War, and the last act of success on the part of the English, the Treaty of Troyes, is the culmination of the efforts of the French kings of the early 14th century to pacify their English neighbors, cousins, and nephews. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1 Plantagenet Claim to France...................................................................................
