    MALTA PAINTED BY VITTORIO BORON DESCRIBED BY FREDERICK W. RYAN 488742 30. 3- LONDON ADAM & CHARLES BLACK 1910 TO COUNT GIROLAMO TAGLIAFERRO THIS BOOK IS AFFECTIONATELY INSCRIBED BY THE WRITER PREFACE THE following text is intended to give no more than a slight sketch, aided by Signer Boron's effective pencil, of the manifold interests to be found in Malta. While the archaeology of the island and its con- nection with the Order of St. John of Jerusalem have from time to time attracted attention, English writers seem regrettably to have neglected other topics presented by this unique Imperial posses- sion, such as the folk-lore and literature of the the of the Maltese language ; growth early Christian of the nature of the ' Church Malta ; Consiglio Popolare' that gleam of constitutional govern- ment in the Dark Ages quite as interesting as the or the social Wittenagemote ; and economic condition of the Maltese people under the Knights and in the early days of British rule all of which have engaged the attention of Italian and Maltese historians. vi PREFACE Circumstances have not allowed more than a passing allusion in the following pages to such subjects : they are here mentioned to indicate the fruitful field of research embraced by the Malta Historical and Scientific Society, formed last year in Valletta, which proposes, under the guidance of its President, Professor Napoleon Tagliaferro, to * study the history and archaeology of the Maltese ' Islands and other scientific subjects of local interest an association well worthy of the support of British residents in Malta. The vast contents of the Record Office in Valletta and oral tradition the latter nowhere stronger than in these islands may on examination con- tribute many valuable additions to literature and history.

  • Dr Alfred Bonnici
    1921- 2011: 90 sena Onorevoli Mr SPEAKER, Dr Michael Frendo Ex Speakers, Mr Anton Tabone, Dr Myriam Spiteri Debono, Dr Daniel Micallef Onorevoli, Prim Ministru, Dr Lawrence Gonzi Onorevoli, Kap tal-Oppozizjoni, Dr Joseph Muscat Onorevoli Membri. Nixtieq nirringrazja lil-Onorevoli Mr Speaker Dr Michael Frendo, talli ghogbu jistedinni ghal din is-seduta parlamentari specjali, fl-okkasjoni tal-l’gheluq id-90 Sena mill-ewwel seduta tal- Assemblea Legislativa u tas-Senat Malti, wara l-ghotja tal–Kostituzzjoni Amery-Millner fl-1921, biex inkellimkom ghal 20 minuta. Inhossni li ghargajt gejt go dari fejn qattajt f’din il karma 14 il-sena minn 1962 sal 1976. Mr Speaker. Int ghogbok t’laqqana illum go din il-kamra, ghax go din is sala “tal-arazzi” kullhadd jaqbel li kienet il-workshop fejn l-isvilup Kostituzjonali Malti inhadem. Mill 1832 Malta kellha diversi Kostituzjonijiet li gew moghtija fil 1849, 1887, u 1903 qabel in- 1921, li ma kinux jissodisfaw l’aspirazjionijiet tal-poplu Malti u kien fit 8 ta’ Jannar tal-1850 l i l’ewwel-Kunsill tal-Gvern kien iltaqa go din il–kamra, fejn il-Gvernatur kien ghamel l’ewwel diskors min fuq it-tron, li beda jis-sejjah min dik in-nhar bhala: “The Speech from the throne” , u wara li Malta saret Republika, mill-Legislatura tan- 1976 beda jissejah lis-speach tal- President. Kinet il-kostituzjoni tan 1921 li stabilit li il-Lingwa Ufficjali ta’ Malta u tal-Aministrazjoni kien L-inglis, u t-Taljan il-lingwa tal-Qorti. Wara l’irvellijiet tas-7 Junju tan-1919 wasalna ghall 1921 kostituzjioni, li kienet l’ewwel wahda ta’ Self-Government, ghax din il-kostituzjoni kienet tat lil-Gvern Malti, id-dritt li jillegisla, u jamministra fuq affarijiet purament locali.

  • For the Maltese Islands
    Fl. Medit. 28: 27-51 doi: 10.7320/FlMedit28.027 Version of Record published online on 12 March 2018 Stephen Mifsud & Owen Mifsud A revision of Allium subsect. Allium (Amaryllidaceae) for the Maltese Islands Abstract Mifsud, S. & Mifsud, O.: A revision of Allium subsect. Allium (Amaryllidaceae) for the Maltese Islands. — Fl. Medit. 28: 27-51. 2018. — ISSN: 1120-4052 printed, 2240-4538 online. A revision of species in Allium subsect. Allium occurring on the Maltese Islands was done on field and herbarium data. A. ampeloprasum L., the presumed endemic A. melitense (Borg.) Ciferri & Giacomini and A. commutatum Guss. are the three species mentioned in the Maltese floras within this group. The results clearly encompassed four different taxonomic units, corre- sponding to A. polyanthum Schult. & Schult. f. which has never been recorded for the Maltese Islands, two populations of A. commutatum and two forms (one sterile, one fertile) of their puta- tive hybrid A. commutatum × A. polyanthum growing on few coastal areas. A. ampeloprasum is excluded from the Maltese islands while A. melitense is synonymised with A. polyanthum. All past records of A. commutatum (apart from a giant form) are referred to A. polyanthum. Moreover, A. commutatum × A. polyanthum is reported from Sicily for the first time. Key words: Allium polyanthum, A. commutatum, Malta, Central Mediterranean region. Introduction The classification of the genus Allium (Amaryllidaceae) has been intricate since the pio- neer work of Don (1827) and subsequent treatments (Regel 1875; Vvedensky 1935; Feinbrun 1943; Omelczuk 1962), but recent classifications (Friesen & al. 2006; Nguyen & al. 2008; Li & al. 2010) divided the genus into three unnamed clades which are referred to as lineages, and which together form 15 different subgenera.
