    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While 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 subm itted. 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 die 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.

Historians seeking to penetrate the thoughts and emotions of ‘ordinary’ single middle-class women living during the Late Victorian and Edwardian years have a challenging task. These women rarely left personal documents for historians to analyse. Novels, particularly popular or bestselling novels, represent one pathway into this realm. Popular novels are numbered among the few written sources that are available to help historians to fill in some of the absences in the conventional historical record.

Kenney, Jr.: The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn of the The Moment, 1910: Virginia Woolf, Arnold Bennett, and Turn ofthe Century Consciousness by EDWIN J. KENNEY, JR. N THE YEARS 1923-24 Virginia Woolf was embroiled in an argument I with Arnold Bennett about the responsibility of the novelist and the future ofthe novel. In her famous essay "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown," she observed that "on or about December, 1910, human character changed";1 and she proceeded to argue, without specifying the causes or nature of that change, that because human character had changed the novel must change if it were to be a true representation of human life. Since that time the at once assertive and vague remark about 1910, isolated, has served as a convenient point of departure for historians now writing about the social and cultural changes occurring during the Edwardian period.2 Literary critics have taken the ideas about fiction from "Mr. Bennett and Mrs. Brown" and Woolfs other much-antholo­ gized essay "Modern Fiction" as a free-standing "aesthetic manifesto" of the new novel of sensibility;3 and those who have recorded and discussed the "whole contention" between Virginia Woolf and Arnold Bennett have regarded the relation between Woolfs historical observation and her ideas about the novel either as just a rhetorical strategy or a generational disguise for the expression of class bias against Bennett.4 Yet few readers have asked what Virginia Woolf might have nleant by her remark about 1910 and the novel, or what it might have meant to her.

  • To Twenty Letters to Joseph Conrad London: First Edition Club, 1926
    G. Jean-Aubry “Introduction” to Twenty Letters to Joseph Conrad London: First Edition Club, 1926 THIS PAMPHLET is one of seven pamphlets in a boxed set simply titled Letters to Conrad on the spine of the box. The print run was 220. The other pamphlets consist of one or more letters to Conrad from Arnold Bennett, Stephen Crane, John Galsworthy, Constance Garnett, Edward Garnett, George Gissing, James Gibbons Huneker, Henry James, Rudyard Kipling, E. V. Lucas, and H. G. Wells. ALL THOSE WHO LIVED, however little, in intimacy with Joseph Conrad, know that he showed not the slightest desire for possessions. Even after he had finally dropped anchor in Kent, the wish to possess houses or lands remained remote from him; naturally and willingly he avowed this lack of desire, without trying to gain self-glorification from it; and so complete was it that he did not collect books (the least cumbersome and most desirable of possessions), and trusted entirely to his prodigious memory to preserve for us the vestiges of his strange past. Though he had read virtually everything that a well-read man of our time could or should read, he made no notes of his reading or of the events of his life. In such matters he was so entirely without thought that his original manuscripts owe their present existence to the care of his wife. To this indifference to material possessions there was one exception: he did keep some documents, though so few that they might with ease have been contained in his coat pockets. Yet, when his temperament and habit of life are remembered, it is not the small number of these papers which is surprising, but the fact that even these were preserved; for though disdain for possessions was an original part of Conrad‘s nature, the conditions of his existence would have imposed it upon him, had it not been autogenous.

  • 1 Byron Criticism in the Age of Margaret Thatcher and Michael
    1 Byron Criticism in the age of Margaret Thatcher and Michael Foot (6053 words) By Jonathan Gross, DePaul University In Nice Work, David Lodge describes Robyn Penhurst‟s failed efforts to obtain a job at Cambridge University, her alma mater.1 Peter, a mediocre Ph.d. candidate plays it safe in a tight academic job market by writing a dissertation on the Romantic Sublime in Literature, while Robyn‟s post-structuralism so threatens her colleagues that she is dismissed. Lodge based the novel on a well known incident (the MacCabe affair) in which a young lecturer, Colin MacCabe, was denied the Cambridge equivalent of tenure in 1981 in a standoff between F.R. Leavis‟ acolytes and Frank Kermode. The two-day debate in the University Senate that followed this affair was only exacerbated by Margaret Thatcher‟s cuts to university research funds and tenure appointments.2 Two books came out the same year as David Lodge‟s portrait of Thatcher‟s England: Malcolm Kelsall‟s Byron’s Politics (1987) and Michael Foot‟s The Politics of Paradise: A Vindication of Byron (1988). These books I will argue, were no less determined by the particular conflicts and tensions of Thatcher‟s England, in particular the fight between labor and laissez faire economics. Michael Foot was the leader of the opposition Labour party from 1980-1983, a period in which he spoke on nuclear proliferation34, at Kelsall‟s own university in Cardiff, Wales. Foot opposed Margaret Thatcher‟s efforts to break up trade unions that governed mining in Wales, a constituency (Ebbw Vale) Foot represented in Parliament.

  • Academic Freedom, Political Interference, and Public Accountability: the Hong Kong Experience Johannes M
    Back to Volume Seven Contents Academic Freedom, Political Interference, and Public Accountability: The Hong Kong Experience Johannes M. M. Chan and Douglas Kerr Abstract In 2015, interference with academic freedom dominated public discourse in Hong Kong. This article provides an analysis of academic freedom in Hong Kong, addresses some systemic problems, and engages the debates between academic freedom and accountability of publicly funded institutions. It argues that the interference is not a one-off incident but forms part of a general trend toward a more restrictive regime of control over tertiary institutions in Hong Kong. Protection of academic freedom is of particular importance in such a restrictive political context. From Giordano Bruno, who was burned for preaching the heresy that the Earth was not the center of the universe, to the many unknown scholars tortured for speaking the truth during China’s Cultural Revolution, history is filled with sad pages documenting the suppression of academic freedom. Academic freedom is vulnerable in that academics and academic institutions have little but their own conscience and integrity to rely on in defending it, and that defense is usually at great personal cost. The threat to academic freedom is powerful and disturbing, since when academic freedom is not tolerated, let alone respected, other fundamental freedoms are also likely in peril. The Hong Kong Context This essay documents three cases in which academic freedom was jeopardized, and in one case seriously damaged, in Hong Kong. It is necessary to preface these accounts with a survey of what is at stake in the particular Hong Kong context.
