Collier alleged that he was merely bringing forward emendations made in a previous generation of scholarship. Samuel Weller Singer, however, in THE TEXT OF SHAKESPEARE VINDICATED FROM THE INTERPOLATIONS AND CORRUPTIONS ADVOCATED BY JOHN PAYNE COLLIER, ESQ., IN HIS NOTES AND EMENDATIONS, disputed the authenticity of these emendations.

HDT WHAT? INDEX JOHN PAYNE COLLIER JOHN PAYNE COLLIER 1859 The Reverend Alexander Dyce’s STRICTURES ON COLLIER’S NEW EDITION OF SHAKESPEARE brought to an end a long friendship. A. DYCE’S STRICTURES The jury was in, in regard to the little matter of whether the noted Shakespeare scholar John Payne Collier was or was not a fraud. The Duke of Devonshire, owner of the original copy of the “Perkins” copy of the 2d folio of Shakespeare’s plays, had submitted that document to experts at the British Museum so that the “paper trail” on these emendations made by Collins could be most closely examined — and, Collier’s story that he had merely been following emendations that had originated elsewhere and elsewhen, with “an old corrector” from a previous generation of Shakespeare scholarship, was entirely discountenanced. It had become abundantly clear that these emendations were recent, amounting to forgeries, and that Collier was either himself the forger or the unknowing dupe of some other contemporary scholar who was the forger. HDT WHAT? INDEX JOHN PAYNE COLLIER JOHN PAYNE COLLIER 1860 In England, Nicholas Hamilton’s INQUIRY had exposed prominent Shakespeare scholar John Payne Collier as either himself a forger, or the dupe of a contemporary forger. When other evidence was brought forward, evidence having to do with falsifications that it was clear Collier had himself perpetrated in some other manuscripts at Dulwich College, it became apparent to all that this man did not deserve the benefit of any further doubt. He had entirely sacrificed all scholarly reputation. No-one of his former colleagues would ever trust him again. This was in addition the year in which Eugene Schieffelin released European sparrows in New-York’s Central Park because he was so enamored of Shakespeare, and because that Elizabethan playwright had mentioned this bird. –Plus, Schieffelin in his environmental innocence considered that the sparrows might help us deal with our abundant caterpiggles. (If only we had considered the merits of this Schieffelin’s emendation of ecosystems as carefully as we had considered the merits of this Collier’s emendations to Shakespeare manuscripts!) Henry Thoreau delivered an address to the Middlesex, Massachusetts Agricultural Society entitled “The Succession of Forest Trees” in which he analyzes aspects of what would later come to be understood as forest ecology and urge farmers to plant trees in natural patterns of succession; the address would later be published, among other places in EXCURSIONS in 1863, becoming perhaps his most influential ecological contribution to the movement of that time that considered itself “conservationist thought.” ECOLOGY Frederic Edwin Church painted “Twilight in the Wilderness;” throughout this era, he and numerous other eminent academic artists were exploring the power of American landscape as symbol and artistic subject in a profoundly influential body of work. CONSERVATIONISM Thomas Starr King published THE WHITE HILLS: THEIR LEGENDS, LANDSCAPE, AND POETRY, which would quickly be recognized as a classic celebration of the White Mountains of New Hampshire in the best tradition of mid-century nature-related travel literature. CONSERVATIONISM In this year and the following one, Thomas Starr King would be presenting a series of articles on Yosemite Valley, California in the Boston Evening Transcript which would help publicize the Yosemite wilderness to Easterners.2 CONSERVATIONISM HDT WHAT? INDEX JOHN PAYNE COLLIER JOHN PAYNE COLLIER 1861 C.M. Ingleby’s COMPLETE VIEW OF THE SHAKESPEARE CONTROVERSY. 2. The conservation movement was little more than a shabby fraud. From the historical record, these early environmental technocrats were intent not on solving our ecological crisis but on destroying the earth as quickly as possible. Their net impact has been negative: we would have been better off had we never had a conservation movement, to teach us how to manage our looting so that we looted with greater and greater effectiveness and economy.

  • Review of Literary Records
    Shakespearean Biografiction: How modern biographers rely on context, conjecture and inference to construct a life of the Bard A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Arts and Humanities Brunel University By Kevin Gilvary November 2014 ii Candidate Kevin Gilvary (1955- ) B.A. (Hons), Classics, Southampton, 1976 M.A., Classics, Southampton, 1978 M.A. (Ed), Language in Education, Southampton 1996 P.G.C.E., Institute of Education, London, 1980 Doctoral Study 2007-2014 (part-time), Brunel University Supervisor 1 Professor William Leahy, School of Arts, Brunel University Supervisor 2 Dr. Sean Gaston, School of Arts, Brunel University Examiner 1 Professor Tom Betteridge, School of Arts, Brunel University Examiner 2 Professor Tom Healey, University of Sussex iii Abstract Modern biographies of William Shakespeare abound: new studies appear almost every year, each claiming new research and new insights, while affirming that there are enough records for a documentary life. In this thesis, I argue that no biography of Shakespeare is possible due to insufficient material, that most of what is written about Shakespeare cannot be verified from primary sources, and that Shakespearean biography did not attain scholarly or academic respectability until Samuel Schoenbaum’s Documentary Life (1975). The thesis therefore is concerned with demythologising Shakespeare by exposing numerous “biogra-fictions.” I begin by reviewing the history and practice of biography as a narrative account of a person’s life based on primary sources. Next I assess the very limited biographical material for Shakespeare identifying the gaps, e.g. there is no record that he spent any of his childhood in Stratford or ever attended school.

This work is protected against unauthorized copying under Title 17, United States Code. ProQuest LLC 789 East Eisenhower Parkway P.O. Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 2 Abstract This thesis argues that real-life forgery cases significantly shaped the form of Victorian fiction. Forgeries of bills of exchange, wills, parish registers or other documents were depicted in at least one hundred novels between 1846 and 1879. Many of these portrayals were inspired by celebrated real-life forgery cases. Forgeries are fictions, and Victorian fiction’s representations of forgery were often self- reflexive. Chapter one establishes the historical, legal and literary contexts for forgery in the Victorian period. Chapter two demonstrates how real-life forgers prompted Victorian fiction to explore its ambivalences about various conceptions of realist representation. Chapter three shows how real-life forgers enabled Victorian fiction to develop the genre of sensationalism. Chapter four investigates how real-life forgers influenced fiction’s questioning of its epistemological status in Victorian culture.

  • Britishness and Problems of Authenticity in Post-Union Literature from Addison to Macpherson
    "Where are the originals?" Britishness and problems of authenticity in post-Union literature from Addison to Macpherson. Melvin Eugene Kersey III Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. University of Leeds, School of English September 2001 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his/her own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the generous help, encouragement and support of many people. My research has benefited beyond reckoning from the supervision of Professor David Fairer, whose inspired scholarship has never interfered with his commitment to my research. It is difficult to know whether to thank or to curse Professor Andrew Wawn for introducing me to James Macpherson's Ossianic poetry during my MA at Leeds, but at any rate I am now doubly indebted to him for his insightful reading of a chapter of this thesis. I am also grateful to Professor Paul Hammond for his enormously helpful comments and suggestions on another chapter. And despite the necessary professional distance which an internal examiner must maintain, I have still enjoyed the benevolent proximity effect of Professor Edward Larrissy. I am grateful to Sue Baker and the administrative staff of the School of English for providing me with employment and moral support during this thesis, especially Pamela Rhodes. Special thanks to the inestimable help, friendship and rigorous mind of Dr. Michael Brown, and to Professor Terence and Sue Brown for their repeated generous hospitality in Dublin.

  • Crafting Critical Feminist Narrative Pedagogies Through Women’S and Queer Life Writing
    ABSTRACT TEACHING A TRANSFORMATIVE STORY: CRAFTING CRITICAL FEMINIST NARRATIVE PEDAGOGIES THROUGH WOMEN’S AND QUEER LIFE WRITING Rhiannon Catherwood, PhD Department of English Northern Illinois University, 2017 Diana L. Swanson, Director This dissertation bridges narrative psychology, pedagogical theory, and the study of marginalized life writing. Narrative psychologists argue that human beings instinctively process their experiences in terms of story, including educational experiences. Literary critics focusing on life writing argue that authors of differing backgrounds produce distinctly different genres of life narrative, evidencing different patterns of thought and reasoning. The principal concern of teaching professionals should be to create an inclusive atmosphere which maximizes the learning potential of a diverse body of students. This means developing educational practices which reflect the diverse ways in which students perceive and relate to the world around them. This dissertation incorporates queer and feminist literary theory and criticism, textual analysis of a variety of autobiographies, memoirs, and personal essays, research on the application of narrative theory to pedagogy, and critical feminist pedagogy. Building on existing research on narrative pedagogy with analysis of the distinct qualities of women’s autobiography and queer autobiography, this project suggests changes to both classroom practices and curriculum development. By changing the genre of our educational narratives, we can transform the atmosphere of campuses and classrooms into one in which previously marginalized students are centralized and empowered.
