Thompson: The High Church Tradition in Ireland, 1800-1870, with particular reference to John Jebb and Alexander Knox. (Thesis for the M.A. Degree, 1992) ABSTRACT This is a critical enquiry into the widely held belief that the doctrines of pre-Tractarian High Church Anglicanism have exercised a specially tena• cious hold on the Church of Ireland. Chapter 1 surveys the tradition as developed in the 17th and 18th centuries, but also examines the peculiarity of a Church established by law in a land the majority of whose people adhered to other Christian bodies.

  • The Works Brass Band – a Historical Directory of the Industrial and Corporate Patronage and Sponsorship of Brass Bands
    The works brass band – a historical directory of the industrial and corporate patronage and sponsorship of brass bands Gavin Holman, January 2020 Preston Corporation Tramways Band, c. 1910 From the earliest days of brass bands in the British Isles, they have been supported at various times and to differing extents by businesses and their owners. In some cases this support has been purely philanthropic, but there was usually a quid pro quo involved where the sponsor received benefits – e.g. advertising, income from band engagements, entertainment for business events, a “worthwhile” pastime for their employees, corporate public relations and brand awareness - who would have heard of John Foster’s Mills outside of the Bradford area if it wasn’t for the Black Dyke Band? One major sponsor and supporter of brass bands, particularly in the second half of the 19th century, was the British Army, through the Volunteer movement, with upwards of 500 bands being associated with the Volunteers at some time – a more accurate estimate of these numbers awaits some further analysis. However, I exclude these bands from this paper, to concentrate on the commercial bodies that supported brass bands. I am also excluding social, civic, religious, educational and political organisations’ sponsorship or support. In some cases it is difficult to determine whether a band, composed of workers from a particular company or industry was supported by the business or not. The “workmen’s band” was often a separate entity, supported by a local trade union or other organisation. For the purposes of this review I will be including them unless there is specific reference to a trade union or other social organisation.

  • Convict Assignment and Prosecution Risk in Van Diemen's Land, 1830
    Convict Assignment and Prosecution Risk in Van Diemen’s Land, 1830–1835 by Rebecca Rose Read BA Hons School of Humanities in the College of Arts, Law and Education Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) University of Tasmania, 28 November 2019 Declaration of Originality This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief no material previously published or written by another person except where due acknowledgement is made in the text of the thesis, nor does the thesis contain any material that infringes copyright. Rebecca Rose Read 28 November 2019 Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan and limited copying and communication in accordance with the Copyright Act 1968. Rebecca Rose Read 28 November 2019 i Abstract Focussing primarily on the years 1830 to 1835, this thesis investigates the inner workings of the convict assignment system in Van Diemen’s Land by examining its record-keeping practices, the rationale for labour allocation within the private sector and the functioning of the magisterial system. It also assesses private-sector demand for convict labour, examines urban assignment, and compares the turnover and prosecution risk of convicts assigned to residents of an urban and a rural area. The aims are to enhance understanding of the assignment system, counter misconceptions, and improve the ability to contextualise individual convict and settler experiences.

    THE IRISH INTER-CHURCH MEETING BACKGROUND AND DEVELOPMENT IRISH INTER-CHURCH MEETING - The Irish Inter-Church Meeting - - The Irish Inter-Church Meeting - INTRODUCTION The first Inter-Church Meeting was held at the Ballymascanlon Hote l, Introduction 1 Dundalk, on September 26, 1973 (this is why the series of meetings Notes about the authors 2 became commonly known as the Ballymascanlon Talks). It was the first official meeting between the Member Churches of the Irish Council of The Preparatory Years 3 Churches and the Irish Episcopal Conference and is thus an historic event. - Rev Michael Hurley SJ The period since 1973 40 This first Meeting led to a process of ecumenical encounters and co- operation which has grown in intensity over the twenty-five years. - Rev Dr Ian Ellis Proposals are currently before the Churches which could lead to a further stage of development in interchurch relations. To commemorate the 25th Anniversary the Irish Inter-Church Committee commissioned two reflective essays. The first is by the Rev Michael Hurley SJ and it seeks to place the first Irish Inter-Church Meeting in the context of broader ecumenical developments of that time. The second is by the Rev Dr Ian Ellis who seeks to bring the story up to the present. We thank them for what they have done and hope that their work will be of interest to all those who are interested in the development of Irish ecumenism. The story of ecumenism in Ireland has been intertwined with that of `The Troubles' over the last twenty-five years, particularly in Northern Ireland.

    RODDY EVANS MEMOIR OF AN IRISH ANGLICAN James Roderick Evans was born in Co. Meath, Ireland, in 1923. He graduated in medicine from Trinity College, Dublin and the Adelaide Hospital in 1947 and became a Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland in 1951. He practiced medicine in Dublin and London and later in Asia and South America and has travelled widely in the Middle East and Southern Africa. In 1971 he returned to live in Belfast, where he has experienced at first-hand the unfolding of the historic developments in Northern Ireland over the last thirty years.
