  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

  • Ancestor§ Arm§
    A BOOK OF ANCESTOR§ AND ARM§ by MARY EMILY LACY ''Laudemus viros gloriosus, et parentes nostros in generatione sua." ,,.,,.,.,,,.,.,,rv.~~~~~ PRIVATELY PRINTED DECEMBER 1936 Printed in England at The Kynoch Press Birmingham PREFACE THE ORIGIN of this little Memoir is as follows: For several years I had taken a lively interest in the history of the families from whom I claimed descent, and had gradually accumulated a large number of notes on subjects relating to them, with_ a vague idea of turning these notes to account at some future period. Time and opportunity were, however, lacking, and it was not until the autumn of 1932 that this book was at length begun. At the outset it became evident that the notes already collected were of too fragmentary a character to be satisfactorily woven into a consecutive narrative, even when combined with matter drawn from documents in the possession of the writer, and from a Book of Events kept by her for over half a century. A large amount of additional information was needed, and this information was to a great extent acquired through diligent research in the Reading Room of the British Museum, and in the Public Libraries of London. Even so a considerable number of blanks remained, only possible to be filled in by help from without, and this help was most willingly rendered in nearly every instance-when sought-not only by kinsfolk and friends but also by those personally unknown to me. My grateful thanks are due to my cousins, Mrs. Dacre Lacy and Miss Gertrude Lacy, for the loan of books and papers throwing light on the association of the Lacys of Great Y ar­ mouth with the counties of Northumberland and Cumberland, and, later on, with the Island of Guernsey, and to Mrs.

  • Half a Century of Medical Research
    Medical Research Council Half a Century of Medical Research Volume One: Origins and Policy of The Medical Research Council (UK) A. Landsborough Thomson Half a Century of Medical Research The Medical Research Council, established in 1920 but in effect inaugurated seven years earlier as the Medical Research Committee, is a prototype among official research organisations. Sir Landsborough Thomson was particularly well qualified for writing its history since he joined the staff of the original Committee in 1919 and as second officer at the Council’s headquarters was closely involved in developments for nearly 40 years. The work is being published in two volumes. This first volume recounts the general history of the Council, particularly the constitutional and administrative aspects of the origins of policy—both the early formulation of administrative principles and the initiation of what later became major developments in the scientific programme. The early chapters chronicle the beginnings of the Council and the predecessor Committee in detail; the later ones discuss broader questions, such as the reasons why particular methods were chosen for the promotion of research, the circumstances in which certain subjects were selected for special support, and the considerations governing the relation between science and administration. Volume Two will deal with the development of the Council’s scientific programme (see the back flap). As Sir Harold Himsworth writes in his introduction to the book, national as well as departmental policy is coming to depend increasingly on the objective quality of the scientific knowledge available, and the organisational pattern of which the research councils are the prototype might find increasing application.

  • Die Vierte Dimension Wissensdiskurse Und Imagination in Alan Moores Und Eddie Campbells »From Hell«
    Die vierte Dimension Wissensdiskurse und Imagination in Alan Moores und Eddie Campbells »From Hell« Joachim Trinkwitz Der umfangreiche Comic From Hell der Briten Alan Moore und Eddie Campbell, in unter- schiedlicher Form seriell erschienen in den Jahren 1989 bis 1998 und in Buchform gesam- melt erstmals 1999,1 spielt hauptsächlich im Herbst des Jahres 1888, als der unter dem Namen »Jack the Ripper« bekannt gewordene Serienmörder im Londoner Stadtteil White- chapel wahrscheinlich fünf Frauen auf bestialische Weise ums Leben brachte – die Identität des Täters ist bis heute nicht geklärt, nicht einmal die genaue Zahl seiner Opfer ist sichergestellt.2 Der für Idee und Text stehende Moore schließt sich einer historisch schnell widerlegten These an, die den Täter als William Gull, Leibarzt Königin Victorias, identifiziert und das Königshaus selbst als Auftraggeber mit in die Morde involviert sieht3. Dabei ist sich Moore, wie ein extensiver Anmerkungsapparat zum Comic (Appendix I) klarmacht, über die töner- nen Füße seiner Quelle durchaus im Klaren; sie erlaubt ihm hingegen, anhand der Figur eines Wissenschaftlers und der Gegenüberstellung unterschiedlicher Wissensdiskurse den Gegensatz von Fakten und Fiktion zu thematisieren. Das Werden eines Wissenschaftlergeistes Sir William Withey Gull (1816–1890), die historische Persönlichkeit, auf welcher der Pro- tagonist von From Hell basiert, war eine bedeutende Figur der englischen Medi- zingeschichte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Nach dem Studium der Physiologie, vergleichenden Anatomie, Medizin und Chirurgie an der University of London nahm Gulls akademische Karriere einen steilen Verlauf. Schon vor seiner mit der Goldmedaille ausgezeichneten Dis- sertation führte sie ihn über die Stationen eines Dozenten für Naturphilosophie, Physiolo- gie und Anatomie sowie eines »Medical Superintendent of the wards for lunatics«, danach zur Professur für Physiologie, Mitglied der Royal Society und diversen Ämtern als prakti- scher Mediziner bis hin zum Leiter des zentralen Londoner Krankenhauses Guy’s Hospital; 1 Alan Moore u.

  • William Withey Gull (1816-1890) [1]
    Published on The Embryo Project Encyclopedia (https://embryo.asu.edu) William Withey Gull (1816-1890) [1] By: Abboud, Alexis Keywords: Hormones [2] William Withey Gull studied paraplegia, anorexia, and hormones [3] as a physician in England during the nineteenth century. In addition to caring for patients, he described the role of the posterior column of the spinal cord in paraplegia, and he was among the first to describe the conditions of anorexia and of hypochondria. He also researched the effects of thyroid hormone [4] deficiencies in women who had malfunctioning thyroid glands. Gull's research on thyroid hormone [4] confirmed that chemicals in the body directly affect health, and he contributed to the foundation of endocrinology [5], the scientific field for the study of hormones [3]. William W. Gull was born on 31 December 1816 to Elizabeth Chilver and John Gull in Colchester, England. His father was a barge and wharf owner who died of Cholera in 1827, leaving Gull's mother to raise their three sons and three daughters. According to Gull's son-in-law and biographer Thomas D. Acland, Gull claimed that his education came from his mother. As a child, Gull attended a school run by two churchwomen, and he learned skills like knitting before transitioning to a school run by the local clergyman. Gull taught himself Latin until he surpassed the skills of his teachers, and he became a Latin teacher at a school in Sussex, England. Gull then learned Greek from Joseph Woods, a scholar and botanist who also taught Gull about the local flora and fauna.

  • Self-Mutilation and Psychiatric Identity
    Self-Mutilation and Psychiatry: Impulse, Identity and the Unconscious in British Explanations of Self-Inflicted Injury, c. 1864 – 1914 Sarah Chaney PhD History of Medicine University College London 2013 2 DECLARATION I, Sarah Chaney, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 3 Abstract Modern accounts of “self-harm” commonly attribute self-inflicted wounds with emotional or other psychological “meaning”, while assuming that these acts are a product of twentieth- century concerns. While self-harm is certainly a modern concept, the attribution of meaning to self-inflicted injury – above and beyond the physical existence of the wounds themselves – is not new. This thesis explores the way in which medical writers in the later nineteenth century understood and explained what they called “self-mutilation”, situating this debate within the history of asylum psychiatry (where most discussion occurred). Self-mutilation as a concept, it is argued, could only exist within the context of a prior understanding of “the self” as a specific physical and psychological entity, and physiological, anthropological and psychological approaches to selfhood are closely associated with medical attention to self- injury. While it might have been expected that writing on self-mutilation emerged from the bureaucratic nature of the contemporary asylum system, and psychiatric concern with the expansion of diagnostic nosologies, this was not necessarily the case. In fact, most of the alienists writing on this topic did not embrace “medical materialism” and hereditary models of illness wholeheartedly, but drew on a wide variety of fields – including anthropology, normal psychology, spiritualism and religious and literary allegory – in their efforts to understand self-injurious acts.
