I will never forget the compassion and strength that they demonstrated over the course of this project. Zoltan Barany developed my skills as a teacher, and provided a thoughtful reading of my first peer-reviewed article. David M.

    Jacques Berque (1910-1995) DALE F

    MESA Bulletin (29) December 1995 Jacques Berque (1910-1995) DALE F. EICKELMAN, Dartmouth College JACQUES BERQUE, one of France's most distinguished Islamic scholars, died at his family's estate in Saint Julien-en-Born, France, on June 22. Born in Algeria, where his father, Augustin Berque, was Director of Native Affairs, Berque had a classical French training in the humanities, distinguishing himself in Francewide competitions, obtaining the agregation des lettres from the Sor- bonne in 1932. [In 1994, he was elected an honorary fellow of MESA.] After a brief stay in mainland France, Berque returned to Algeria, then considered an "integral" part of France, and lived for two years with a tribe in the Hodna region of Algeria in order to perfect his Arabic. In 1934, he entered the colonial service in Morocco as an officier des affaires indigenes and remained there until his 1953 resignation. His first scholarly publications date from his arrival in Morocco and include a brilliant sociological analysis of the Qarawiyin mosque-university in Fez and the concepts and practice of Islamic jurisprudence in a colonial setting. These early essays, originally published in key specialist journals, have since been reprinted in various collections.1 The scope and intellectual vitality of Berque's writings are matched by few of his peers or successors, and his writings show familiarity with most of the major intellectual movements of the twentieth century. Berque's colonial career was marked by controversy almost from the outset. Together with Julien Couleau, Berque was responsible for a major plan for agrarian reform in Morocco which was submitted to Rabat's Residence in 1944.

    Biographical Sketches, 1852-1875

    : BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCHES. 1852—1875. HARRIET MARTINEAU. NEW EDITION, WITH AUTOBIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH. bonbon: MACMILLAN & CO. 1885. PREFACE TO THE FOURTH EDITION. THE Four new sketches by which this edition has been enriched are those of SIR JOHN Herschel, Sir Edwin Landseer, Barry CORNWALL, and Mrs. Somervillk They ap- peared in the Daily News, and the publishers are indebted for them to the kindness of Mr. J. R. ROBINSON of that journal. The singular auto- biographical fragment with which the volume opens was placed by Miss Martineau in the hands of the proprietors of the Daily News in 1855 for publication immediately on her death. It appeared as it was originally written, twenty- one years later. August, 1876. PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION. In issuing a Second Edition of these " Sketches," it is natural to express something of the gratification which their reception has afforded me. The inclination is all the stronger from the most cordial sympathy having been expressed in regard to the matter I have most at heart,—the true principle of Biographical delineation. Considering how natural, and therefore general, is the disposition to believe and say everything good of the recently dead, I could not have anticipated the extensive appreciation which has attended my endeavour to discharge my duty in the way which I have always believed to be right ; and this agreement with me on the principle of thorough sincerity in the portraiture of public men, affords me a deeper satis- faction than any literary success can yield. Between, confusion of thought on the one hand, and unchastened feelings on the other, it is no wonder if a large propor- tion of readers fail to apprehend the purpose and cha- racter of Biographical portraiture altogether.

    THE FRIENDS OF EXETER CATHEDRAL ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Pages 27–31 ‘1917 AND ALL THAT’ by Jonathan Walker ‘1917 AND ALL THAT’ It is not often that Hollywood has a link with Exeter Cathedral, but Sir Sam Mendes’ new blockbuster film ‘1917’ has created one. The film, which features cameo roles by Colin Firth and Dominic Cumberbatch, is set on the Western Front during The Great War and tells the story of two messengers who have to cross a surreal landscape, recently abandoned by the Germans, in order to deliver a message to a British battalion. That message aims to halt the unit’s intended suicidal attack, for the Germans have laid a trap. To say more, would be a ‘spoiler’ but the unit portrayed in the film is the 2nd Battalion The Devonshire Regiment – and Exeter Cathedral remains the spiritual home of the ‘Devons’, encompassing their regimental chapel of St Edmund. Before looking at the close association between the Devons and the Cathedral, what was the story of the county regiment’s contribution to The Great War? As with most regiments before the outbreak of the conflict, the Devons maintained two regular battalions of professional soldiers, a reserve battalion and three battalions of territorial (part-time) soldiers. There was a gulf between these units, with Lord Kitchener complaining, somewhat unjustly, that the Territorials were a collection of ‘middle-aged professional men who were allowed to put on uniform and play at soldiers’. Professional jealousy apart, it was clear that the British Army would have to be rapidly expanded, as the first weeks of the war decimated the ranks of the ‘old contemptibles’.
