The reasons for such a long “survival” are numerous; however, the Royal Family (RF) did not make it without changing or having to change some of their attitudes and habits. There are two possible ways of classifying these changes: there were changes which were performed voluntarily, and there were also changes which were rather a result of the natural development of the society which the RF did or had to accommodate to. In the light of the aforementioned changes, this thesis shall attempt to illustrate how the public image and perception of the monarchy and the RF in Britain shifted from the monarch “who was chosen by God” to a special kind of “celebrity” and what caused that this shift has happened. I shall examine the current British RF from historical, political, economic, sociological and psycho-social perspective as well as from the point of view of the media. By examining the way the RF functions within the context of the above mentioned disciplines, I shall reach the conclusion of what the public image of the current RF is, how is it created, and how the royals are actually perceived by the general public. Given the limited scope of the thesis, I shall examine the RF and their public image and perception primarily within the borders of the United Kingdom (UK), not within the whole area of the Commonwealth of Nations where the Queen still is an official head of the state. A lot has been written about the RF in various contexts, however, there is a lack of comprehensive contemporary studies in the field of academia dealing with the phenomenon of the RF in the 21st century, namely in the post-engagement and post- Diamond Jubilee period. Blain and O‟Donnell in their book Monarchy, Media and Power (7) raise the same concern and quote that one of the last serious attempts to study the RF comprehensively was in 1988 by Tom Nairn in his The Enchanted Glass, and 1 then four years later by Michael Billing in his Talking of the Royal Family. The situation of the RF has changed significantly in the 1970s as well as in the second half of the 1990s and then again in the 2010s, and even though there have been numerous sectional more and less serious studies, the aforementioned comprehensive studies ended their scope before the period of the 21st century. My aim, therefore, is to attempt to assess the RF from various perspectives in order to illustrate how have their status, functions, and namely the public image and perception changed recently. To be able to talk about the public image of the RF, it is important to define what a public image in this thesis is understood as and how this thesis defines the RF as such. The RF in this thesis is understood as the sovereign and his or her close family members who are related to the monarch either by blood, or by marriage. For the understanding of the public image, following dictionary definition was used: “the ideas and opinions that the public has about a person or an organization that may not be what they are really like” (Macmillan Dictionary). The fact that the public image does not necessarily have to reflect the true reception is why I opted for the title of the thesis to contain both the terms public image as well as perception, since the public image might as well be more or less only a result of activities of the PR agencies or the subject itself whose “strategic goal is to project a favourable public image . and to persuade [the public] that the reality must correspond with the desired image” (Encyclopædia Britannica), or of the media that can manipulate facts in order to fit their goals. When talking about the content and the research approach, the first chapter of this thesis shall discuss the RF from the historical point of view. It examines, unlike the rest of the thesis that concentrates primarily on the current RF, the royals more deeply in their historical context, however, only the dynasties after the Norman Conquest are taken into account. It discusses what changes the royals had to face in the past in order 2 to secure continuity of their lineage and to what extent these changes were voluntary and to what extent they were rather a result of external circumstances they had only little control over. The outcome of this chapter shall be how these changes influenced and changed the way the RF works in contemporary Britain and what caused that the monarch is no longer being thought of as a God-appointed ruler. The next chapter shall pick up the threads of the previous one and set the current RF in the context of the situation that resulted from the changes that were described previously. This chapter shall discuss the role of the monarch and the RF in the context of current politics – what powers the royals and the Queen still have and mainly if monarchy as such, given the monarch is

  • Guidance on the Use of Royal Arms, Names and Images
    GUIDANCE ON THE USE OF ROYAL ARMS, NAMES AND IMAGES 1 The following booklet summarises the legal position governing the use, for commercial purposes, of the Royal Arms, Royal Devices, Emblems and Titles and of photographs, portraits, engravings, effigies and busts of The Queen and Members of the Royal Family. Guidance on advertising in which reference is made to a Member of the Royal Family, and on the use of images of Members of the Royal Family on articles for sale, is also provided. The Lord Chamberlain’s Office will be pleased to provide guidance when it is unclear as to whether the use of “Arms” etc., may give the impression that there is a Royal connection. 2 TRADE MARKS Section 4 (1) of the Trade Marks Act 1994 states: “A trade mark which consists of or contains – (a) the Royal arms, or any of the principal armorial bearings of the Royal arms, or any insignia or device so nearly resembling the Royal arms or any such armorial bearing as to be likely to be mistaken for them or it, (b) a representation of the Royal crown or any of the Royal flags, (c) a representation of Her Majesty or any Member of the Royal Family, or any colourable imitation thereof, or (d) words, letters or devices likely to lead persons to think that the applicant either has or recently has had Royal patronage or authorisation, shall not be registered unless it appears to the registrar that consent has been given by or on behalf of Her Majesty or, as the case may be, the relevant Member of the Royal Family.” The Lord Chamberlain's Office is empowered to grant the consent referred to in Section 4(1) on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen.

  • Roman-Barbarian Marriages in the Late Empire R.C
    ROMAN-BARBARIAN MARRIAGES IN THE LATE EMPIRE R.C. Blockley In 1964 Rosario Soraci published a study of conubia between Romans and Germans from the fourth to the sixth century A.D.1 Although the title of the work might suggest that its concern was to be with such marriages through- out the period, in fact its aim was much more restricted. Beginning with a law issued by Valentinian I in 370 or 373 to the magister equitum Theodosius (C.Th. 3.14.1), which banned on pain of death all marriages between Roman pro- vincials and barbarae or gentiles, Soraci, after assessing the context and intent of the law, proceeded to discuss its influence upon the practices of the Germanic kingdoms which succeeded the Roman Empire in the West. The text of the law reads: Nulli provineialium, cuiuscumque ordinis aut loci fuerit, cum bar- bara sit uxore coniugium, nec ulli gentilium provinciales femina copuletur. Quod si quae inter provinciales atque gentiles adfinitates ex huiusmodi nuptiis extiterit, quod in his suspectum vel noxium detegitur, capitaliter expietur. This was regarded by Soraci not as a general banning law but rather as a lim- ited attempt, in the context of current hostilities with the Alamanni, to keep those barbarians serving the Empire (gentiles)isolated from the general Roman 2 populace. The German lawmakers, however, exemplified by Alaric in his 63 64 interpretatio,3 took it as a general banning law and applied it in this spir- it, so that it became the basis for the prohibition under the Germanic king- doms of intermarriage between Romans and Germans.

    FREE HONOUR GUARD PDF Dan Abnett | 416 pages | 20 Oct 2015 | GAMES WORKSHOP | 9781784960049 | English | United States Honor Guard | Definition of Honor Guard by Merriam-Webster A guard of honour GBalso honor Honour Guard USalso ceremonial guardis a guard, usually military in nature, appointed to receive or guard a head of state or other dignitaries, the fallen in war, or to attend at state ceremonials, especially funerals. In military weddings, especially those of commissioned officers, a guard, composed usually of service members of the same branch, form the Saber arch. In principle any military unit could act as a guard of honour. However, in some countries certain units are specially designated to serve as a guard of honour, as well as other public duties. Guards of Honour also serve in the civilian world for fallen police officers and other civil servants. Certain religious bodies, especially Churches of Honour Guard Anglican Communion and the Methodist movement, have the tradition of an Honour Guard Honour Guard the funeral of an ordained elder, in which all other ordained elders present "guard the line" between the door of the church and the grave, or hearse if the deceased is to be buried elsewhere or cremated. Guards of honour have been mounted by a number of military forces, uniformed paramilitary organizations, and civilian emergency services. Composed of Honour Guard, troops, it is very similar in its formation style to equivalent units in the French Army.

  • ABSTRACT Title of Dissertation: ROYAL SUBJECTS
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: ROYAL SUBJECTS, IMPERIAL CITIZENS: THE MAKING OF BRITISH IMPERIAL CULTURE, 1860- 1901 Charles Vincent Reed, Doctor of Philosophy, 2010 Dissertation directed by: Professor Richard Price Department of History ABSTRACT: The dissertation explores the development of global identities in the nineteenth-century British Empire through one particular device of colonial rule – the royal tour. Colonial officials and administrators sought to encourage loyalty and obedience on part of Queen Victoria’s subjects around the world through imperial spectacle and personal interaction with the queen’s children and grandchildren. The royal tour, I argue, created cultural spaces that both settlers of European descent and colonial people of color used to claim the rights and responsibilities of imperial citizenship. The dissertation, then, examines how the royal tours were imagined and used by different historical actors in Britain, southern Africa, New Zealand, and South Asia. My work builds on a growing historical literature about “imperial networks” and the cultures of empire. In particular, it aims to understand the British world as a complex field of cultural encounters, exchanges, and borrowings rather than a collection of unitary paths between Great Britain and its colonies.

INTRODUCTION These guidance notes have been produced from those issued by the National Association of Civic Officers (NACO). They set out the protocols to which local Councils should follow and observe on marking the death of a senior national figure and to be observed on the death of the Sovereign, which involves the greatest number of ceremonial elements. From this template, it is possible to select elements that are appropriate when marking the death of, for instance, another member of the Royal Family, a Prime Minister or former Prime Minister, a serving Member of Parliament. All parts of this protocol apply on the death of the Sovereign (and, of course, those sections around the Accession Proclamation arise only on the Monarch’s death). Beyond that, implementation of the Protocol is a matter to be decided locally. This protocol offers guidance on how to mark a death. It is down to the Parish Chairman and Parish Clerk to decide for whom the protocol is implemented and to what extent. Flying of flag at half-mast will always be appropriate. Other decisions,
