The Norman Conquest, 1065–1087 Answer questions 6 (a–b) and 7. 6. (a) In Interpretation A the historian Robert Bartlett argues that the ‘Harrying of the North’ had a powerful impact on northern England. Identify and explain one way in which he does this. [3] Interpretation A – An extract from the script of The Normans, a BBC television series, 2010. In 1069, William marched on York and crushed the rebellion. The Normans devastated the North of England. They sacked every village and farmstead as they went. Then William divided his troops into smaller bands who destroyed any crops and livestock they could find … A huge area across northern and central England was laid waste by this ‘scorched earth’ on the northern rebels. Plotting the settlements destroyed by the Normans shows the scar that was carved across the country by William’s army. Sixteen years later, these areas were still desolate wasteland. (b) If you were asked to do further research on one aspect of Interpretation A, what would you choose to investigate? Explain how this would help us to analyse and understand the Harrying of the North.

Interpretations B and C are both illustrations of Norman motte–and–bailey castles. How far do they differ and what might explain any differences? [12] Tip: use details from each source to show differences. Think about the focus of the sources and their audience as reasons why they differ. Interpretation B – An illustration of the Norman castle at Pickering in Yorkshire by the reconstruction artist Simon Hayfield. The illustration is in the book Picturing the Past. The book was published in 1997 and was aimed at adults. 3 Interpretation C – An illustration of a typical Norman castle in Living in the Past: The Middle Ages a history textbook written for primary school children in 1983. Answer either question 8 or question 9. 8.* In an article for the BBC History Magazine in 2012, the historian Ryan Lavelle argued that late Anglo–Saxon England was “by no means a ‘golden age’’’. How far do you agree with this view? [20] 9.* According to a children’s history website, www.MedievalEurope.MrDonn.org, following his victory at Hastings, William ‘soon had conquered all of England’. How far do you agree with this view? [20] Tip: look at both sides of the argument. Try to develop at least three points for each side of the argument. Come to a reasoned judgement. 4 GENERAL POINTS: Crime is often categorised into: Crime against the person eg. murder, rape, assault. Crime against property eg. theft, vandalism. Crime against authority eg. riot, rebellion. Some crimes may be a combination of more than one of the above eg. mugging. The exact nature of crime has changed through time and reflects the attitudes and values of people in different periods of our past. Punishment can also be categorised: Capital punishment ie. the use of the death penalty. Corporal punishment ie. the use of physical pain. Humiliation eg. stocks. Loss of rights and money eg. prison, fines. The types of punishments used have changed through time. Some crimes attract harsh punishment because society or the government sees them as more serious or dangerous. What is considered serious/dangerous has changed through time. The reasons behind punishing people have also changed. Motives may include repaying your debt to society or even rehabilitation (ie. being re-educated in order to return to a useful role in society). Thus, punishment may well include other aims. KEY POINT: Crime involves breaking the law. In the past, laws were decided by rulers and powerful people only using Parliament. They were a way of controlling their territory and preventing unrest and rebellion. As the needs of rulers changed so have laws. Before the twentieth century the main way the ordinary people could change the law was to protest, riot or rebel. In the twentieth century all adults have been given the vote and what is considered a crime has changed. We are now concerned about what is good for society as a whole rather than using the law to protect the interests of a small number of very powerful people. 5 CORE 1: MEDIAEVAL PERIOD AD1250-1500 Key features of the Mediaeval Period There were two main trends: 1. The power and role of the king was increased. This can be shown by the new laws that were introduced: - Killing a Norman was made a crime. The Normans had conquered England by force and the English did not like them. - The Norman Forest Laws: William I declared that 30% of England would be protected by forest laws which meant it was illegal to kill wild animals in these areas. Forest officials were used to police these areas. Forest taxes were used by the King to get extra money. Punishments were harsh. The laws were an extension of the King’s power. He loved deer hunting and was using his position for his own interests. Many forests were in areas where rebellions had taken place. William wanted to show the English he was in charge. In general the Normans upheld existing Anglo-Saxon laws. 2. The importance of religion and the Church grew. The Church became more involved in moral crimes eg adultery, sex before marriage, failure to observe religious rituals. Church courts were used to deal with cases involving priests. CRIME AND CRIMINALS IN THE MEDIAEVAL PERIOD Most crime was petty (minor crime) and lots of crime went unrecorded. Yet, Mediaeval England was not lawless. It was difficult to get away with crime because everyone knew each other in each village. Stealing animals was a common crime and it was taken seriously. Moral crimes, those against the ideas of the Church, caused concern. These included sex outside marriage; adultery; not attending church. Some crimes reflected attitudes to women eg nagging your husband was a crime. Vagabondage (begging) was seen as a crime and caused concern especially during the Black Death. More serious crimes were those against the power of the monarch eg breaking the Forest Laws; rebellion and treason. LAW ENFORCEMENT IN MEDIAEVAL ENGLAND The system of law enforcement and courts was developed by Henry II, building on that established under the Anglo- Saxons and Normans. Why did Henry II make changes to the system of law enforcement? There was a civil war (“The Anarchy”) between King Stephen and the Empress Matilda which had reduced the influence of the king. Some nobles had become too powerful. When Henry II became king he wanted to restore the authority of the King. What changes did he make? He updated and drew together Anglo-Saxon, Norman and Royal laws into the Constitutions of Clarendon. This became the basis of common law. This was the first time England had a unified system of laws, the same throughout the country. 6 Henry II also changed the system of law enforcement: Greater use of juries to decide cases. Grand juries to report breaches of the law; petty juries to decide on innocent/guilty. This expanded a system already in place. Use of writs (royal instructions to sheriffs) The court of the King’s bench set up to deal with most serious cases. Use of eyres (circuits) whereby judges travelled around a part of the country to try cases. Use of county gaols to hold prisoners waiting to be tried. Henry attempted to reduce the power of the Church courts but failed. In fact the influence of the Church grew because it provided people who could read and write and therefore were needed in court cases.

  • The Crucifix and the Christian Cross

    The Crucifix and the Christian Cross

    Present Day Idols: The Crucifix and the Christian Cross Author: Pierre Dungee www.getyouranswersonline.com This article is going to be very difficult for many people to stomach and to comprehend as they have been taught over the centuries that what Jesus did on the cross was significant and that we should commemorate what he did by constantly showing Him on a cross. This is the thinking of lunatics, as you will see shortly. To really understand what is being said here, let’s take a look at what crucifixion really was, and what it really represented. So, let’s go to Wikipedia to see what it says: Crucifixion is a method of capital punishment in which the victim is tied or nailed to a large wooden beam and left to hang for several days until eventual death from exhaustion and asphyxiation. The crucifixion of Jesus is a central narrative in Christianity, and the cross (sometimes depicting Jesus nailed onto it) is the main religious symbol for many Christian churches. Crucifixion was most often performed to dissuade its witnesses from perpetrating similar (usually particularly heinous) crimes. Victims were sometimes left on display after death as a warning to any other potential criminals. Crucifixion was usually intended to provide a death that was particularly slow, painful (hence the term excruciating, literally "out of crucifying"), gruesome, humiliating, and public, using whatever means were most expedient for that goal. Crucifixion methods varied considerably with location and time period. The Greek and Latin words corresponding to "crucifixion" applied to many different forms of painful execution, including being impaled on a stake, or affixed to a tree, upright pole (a crux simplex), or (most famous now) to a combination of an upright (in Latin, stipes) and a crossbeam (in Latin, patibulum).

    Actus Reus and Mens Rea of Murder  Understand Coke’S Definition of Murder  Explain How the Definition of Murder Has Changed and Evolved

    Criminal Law [G153] OOFFENCES AAGAINST THE PPERSON:: MMUURRDDEERR By the end of this unit, you will be able to: Explain the actus reus and mens rea of murder Understand Coke’s definition of murder Explain how the definition of murder has changed and evolved. You will also be able to: Critically evaluate the current law, and possible reforms. HOMEWORK During this unit, you will be set the following. In completing homework, you will be expected to do your own research and supplement your own notes. This is essential to show understanding. 1. How far does the case of Kiranjit Ahluwalia highlight the problems with the current law on murder and voluntary manslaughter. In your opinion, what should she have been liable for and why, and how did the law respond and why. END OF UNIT ASSESSMENT As with AS, you will sit a DRAG test but not until we have looked at voluntary and involuntary manslaughter as well. Remember, you will have the choice to answer 20 out of 60 questions, reflecting your understanding and knowledge of the subject. At the end of each unit on manslaughter, we will look at a section B question, but for now you will not complete an essay question on the subject (hmmm... think ahead to mocks!) 1 Criminal Law [G153] Murder Murder is generally accepted as one of the worst crimes imaginable. It is a common law crime, which means that the courts are able to develop the definition and the crime itself through case law using ……………………. However, this can also be a problem because it means that the definition is constantly changing and it can be a little tricky to work out the exact meaning of the law.

    Relationships Between Racial Slavery, Incarceration, and Policing, Part I THOM GEHRING

    Journal of Prison Education and Reentry Vol. 6 No. 3, 2020 FEATURE–HISTORICAL VIGNETTE Relationships Between Racial Slavery, Incarceration, and Policing, Part I THOM GEHRING The brutal death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020, while in police custody in Minne- apolis, Minnesota, focused attention in the U.S. on the problem of racism. Black Lives Matter and other organizations helped frame subsequent protests around the relationships between racial slavery, incarceration, and policing. Our task as prison educators is to stretch toward clarity. There is a strong parallel between the dehumanization of slaves and the dehumanization of prisoners. One way this dehumanization has been enacted was by blaming individuals for their plight with no consideration for historical context. Genocide against Indigenous Amer- icans, racial slavery, and penitentiaries all began during the British watch, before American independence. Just as slaves were perceived as lazy and incapable, prisoners were reported to be inclined toward “universal riot and debauchery” (Freedman, E. 1981. Their sister’s keepers: Women’s prison reform in America, 1830-1930. Ann Arbor: University of Michigan Press, p. 47). Prisons had a long history, but they were places where torture and executions took place, mostly for political prisoners. This is particularly evident in American prisons: “The penitentiary was seen as an American invention” (Hughes, R. 1987. The fatal shore. New York: Alfred A. Knopf, p. 426). In 1773, Philadelphia’s Walnut Street Jail was established for everyday criminals, by Quakers who advocated it as a holding facility, to replace harsh punishments such as mutilation, staggering fines, and public humiliation (Carney, L.P.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. White the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.
  • The Experience of the German Soldier on the Eastern Front

    The Experience of the German Soldier on the Eastern Front

    AUTONOMY IN THE GREAT WAR: THE EXPERIENCE OF THE GERMAN SOLDIER ON THE EASTERN FRONT A THESIS IN History Presented to the Faculty of the University Of Missouri-Kansas City in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree MASTER OF ARTS By Kevin Patrick Baker B.A. University of Kansas, 2007 Kansas City, Missouri 2012 ©2012 KEVIN PATRICK BAKER ALL RIGHTS RESERVED AUTONOMY IN THE GREAT WAR: THE EXPERIENCE OF THE GERMAN SOLDIER ON THE EASTERN FRONT Kevin Patrick Baker, Candidate for the Master of Arts Degree University of Missouri-Kansas City, 2012 ABSTRACT From 1914 to 1919, the German military established an occupation zone in the territory of present day Poland, Lithuania, and Latvia. Cultural historians have generally focused on the role of German soldiers as psychological and physical victims trapped in total war that was out of their control. Military historians have maintained that these ordinary German soldiers acted not as victims but as perpetrators causing atrocities in the occupied lands of the Eastern Front. This paper seeks to build on the existing scholarship on the soldier’s experience during the Great War by moving beyond this dichotomy of victim vs. perpetrator in order to describe the everyday existence of soldiers. Through the lens of individual selfhood, this approach will explore the gray areas that saturated the experience of war. In order to gain a better understanding of how ordinary soldiers appropriated individual autonomy in total war, this master’s thesis plans to use an everyday-life approach by looking at individual soldiers’ behaviors underneath the canopy of military hegemony.

    Teaching American Literature: a Journal of Theory and Practice Fall 2017 (9:2)

    Teaching American Literature: A Journal of Theory and Practice Fall 2017 (9:2) Ascending the Scaffold: Knowing and Judging in Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter David Rampton, University of Ottawa, Canada Abstract: Reminding students that Hawthorne's The Scarlet Letter begins with an exercise in public shaming helps them relate to the novel. It is set in the mid-17th century, a long time ago, yet the continuities persist. Hester Prynne is forced to mount the scaffold and expose herself and her child to the citizens of Boston, who want to see her degraded and to learn the name of her partner in moral crime. Today convicted criminals in the American justice system are routinely required to make a similar sort of public display. The desire to know how the battle between good and evil is going in Puritan Boston, Hawthorne says, is something that binds the community together and threatens to tear it apart. Knowing can mean sympathy and compassion, but it can also involve a pernicious desire to trespass in the interior of another's heart. Our exercises in close reading reveal that the desire to "know" someone, as the novel's slow motion "whodunit" clearly shows, can lead to deeper intimacy, or a denial of their quintessential humanity. Analyzing the shaming scenes that organize the narrative means helping students to see more clearly the structure of the novel, the issues at stake in it, and the ambiguities of guilt and innocence that dominate in our meditations on our own lives. Teaching The Scarlet Letter is one of the great experiences in the career of any teacher, for reasons that are not far to seek: it is arguably the most widely read 19th-century American novel; its subject, adultery, still has a magnetic attractiveness for us; and the story it narrates is firmly inscribed in the history of America and its culture.
