  • Representations of Jews in Irish Literature
    REPRESENTATIONS OF JEWS IN IRISH LITERATURE A Bibliographic Database School of English and History, Ulster University 1 2 Contents Introduction …………………………………………………………...................…. 5 Years 1590 – 1800 ………………………………………...............................…… 7 Years: 1801 – 1900 ……………………………………...................................…… 9 Years: 1901 – 2000 …………………………………..................................…….. 29 Years: 2001 – Present ………………………........................................………..47 3 4 Introduction who is invisible enough to see you ― Paul Celan This bibliographic database archives all texts and writers relevant to the representations of Jews in Ireland (subject to copyright) from the earliest times to the present. The database illustrates how the representation of Jews intersects with all the main genres of Irish literature, telling us much about the notion of identity – both Irish and Jewish – and how in fact, a complete psychohistory of Irishness and Jewishness is hidden in these neglected representations. Divided into four distinct sections, this database has been archived in chronological order ranging from the earliest texts documented between 1590- 1800, the dynamic societal and literary advances made between 1801-1900, texts written in the twentieth century from 1901-2000 and finishing with literature produced in and about Ireland between 2001 to the present day. This mapping of literature was culled from the bibliographies of articles generated by electronic journals and hand searches. This review process yielded 603 publications. This document is available for download from the Ulster University website at: http://www.arts.ulster.ac.uk/jewishrepresentations/ This database has been created in association with Ulster University, the Arts & Humanities Research Council, the Irish-Jewish Museum, NUI Galway, Armagh Public Library, PRONI and the Royal Irish Academy. 5 6 Years: 1590 – 1800 Spenser, Edmund.

  • Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial
    Navigating the Atlantic World: Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial Networks, 1650-1791 Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University by Jamie LeAnne Goodall, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Newell, Advisor John Brooke David Staley Copyright by Jamie LeAnne Goodall 2016 Abstract This dissertation seeks to move pirates and their economic relationships from the social and legal margins of the Atlantic world to the center of it and integrate them into the broader history of early modern colonization and commerce. In doing so, I examine piracy and illicit activities such as smuggling and shipwrecking through a new lens. They act as a form of economic engagement that could not only be used by empires and colonies as tools of competitive international trade, but also as activities that served to fuel the developing Caribbean-Atlantic economy, in many ways allowing the plantation economy of several Caribbean-Atlantic islands to flourish. Ultimately, in places like Jamaica and Barbados, the success of the plantation economy would eventually displace the opportunistic market of piracy and related activities. Plantations rarely eradicated these economies of opportunity, though, as these islands still served as important commercial hubs: ports loaded, unloaded, and repaired ships, taverns attracted a variety of visitors, and shipwrecking became a regulated form of employment. In places like Tortuga and the Bahamas where agricultural production was not as successful, illicit activities managed to maintain a foothold much longer.

II )2 < 7-'/ < INTRODUCTION. ^/^Sn i Chronology, so in Genealogy there are certain landmarks. Thus,n i France, to trace back to Charlemagne is the desideratum ; in England, to the Norman Con quest; and in the New England States, to the Puri tans, or first settlement of the country. The origin of but few nations or individuals can be precisely traced or ascertained. " The lapse of ages is inces santly thickening the veil which is spread over remote objects and events. The light becomes fainter as we proceed, the objects more obscure and uncertain, until Time at length spreads her sable mantle over them, and we behold them no more." Its i stated, among the librarians and officers of historical institutions in the Eastern States, that not two per cent of the inquirers succeed in establishing the connection between their ancestors here and the family abroad. Most of the emigrants 2 I NTROD UCTION. fled f rom religious persecution, and, instead of pro mulgating their derivation or history, rather sup pressed all knowledge of it, so that their descendants had no direct traditions. On this account it be comes almost necessary to give the descendants separately of each of the original emigrants to this country, with a general account of the family abroad, as far as it can be learned from history, without trusting too much to tradition, which however is often the only source of information on these matters.

  • A New Wife for Edward, 3Rd Earl of Derby Em
    WILLIAM ;,,it> A NEW WIFE FOR EDWARD, 3RD EARL OF DERBY EM. Zevin, M.A., M.Phil. For a long time there has been some uncertainty over the identity of the first wife of Edward Stanley, third earl of Derby. Probably the earliest extant biographical account of this earl is the Funeral Certificate prepared by the College of Arms following his death in 1572.' It states that, out of three wives, 'He marryed firste Dorothie, dowter to Thomas Howard Duke of Northfolk, and by her had yssue his sone and successour.' More than one of the sixteenth-century Howard dukes of Norfolk carried the name Thomas. Thomas Howard the elder, the second duke of Norfolk, died in 1524. He was succeeded by his eldest son, Thomas Howard the younger, who then became the third duke of Norfolk. As the earl of Derby's first marriage took place around 1530, it is possible that his bride could have been the daughter of either one of these men. The antiquarian histories of the Stanley family generally follow the Funeral Certificate and are also unspecific as to which duke of Norfolk was the father of Earl Edward's first wife.2 The standard peerages, however, indicate not only that Edward's wife was the daughter of the second duke of Norfolk, but also that her mother was the duke's second wife, Agnes.' If we then look up the entries on the dukes of Norfolk, we find that this identification of the bride's parents is backed up solely by Collins' Peerage.' Here, one Dorothy, the second daughter of the second duke of Norfolk by his second wife, is listed as having married the earl of Derby.

ARTICLE BILLS OF ATTAINDER Matthew Steilen* ABSTRACT What are bills of attainder? The traditional view is that bills of attainder are legislation that punishes an individual without judicial process. The Bill of Attainder Clause in Article I, Section 9 prohibits the Congress from passing such bills. But what about the President? The traditional view would seem to rule out application of the Clause to the President (acting without Congress) and to executive agencies, since neither passes bills. This Article aims to bring historical evidence to bear on the question of the scope of the Bill of Attainder Clause. The argument of the Article is that bills of attainder are best understood as a summary form of legal process, rather than a legislative act. This argument is based on a detailed historical reconstruction of English and early American practices, beginning with a study of the medieval Parliament rolls, year books, and other late medieval English texts, and early modern parliamentary diaries and journals covering the attainders of Elizabeth Barton under Henry VIII and Thomas Wentworth, earl of Strafford, under Charles I.

  • John Spence Pembroke College, Cambridge
    The Identity of Rauf de Boun, Author of the Petit Bruit John Spence Pembroke College, Cambridge The chronicle called the Petit Bruit was written by meistre Rauf de Boun in 1309. 1 The Petit Bruit is preserved in full in only one manuscript: London, British Library, MS Harley 902, ff. I' - II '.' It recounts the history of England from the arrival oflegendary Trojan founder Brutus down to Edward I, interspersed with legendary characters such as King Arthur, Havelok and Guy of Warwick. This might sound like a familiar pattern for a late medieval chronicle of England, but despite this the identity of the Petit Bruit's sources have remained unclear.' Many details of Rauf de Boun's account differ greatly from the legendary history familiar from Geoffrey of Monmouth's Historia Regum Britanniae and its descendants, and the Petit Bruit sometimes also distorts more factual material, as when Edward the Confessor is succeeded by his brother, the imaginary Miles, who in turn is murdered by Harold, who has also become Edward the Confessor's (and Miles's) brother.' It has to be said that Raurs grasp of the span of English history does not seem very firm, and he has been much criticised for this, most memorably by Sir Frederic Madden who ;n 1828 referred to him as a 'miserable History-monger'.' The anomalous nature of the Petit Bruit has perhaps led historians to undervalue the work, however. After all, playing fast and loose with Geoffrey of Monmouth's confection of British legends hardly disqualifies Rauf de Boun from being a capable chronicler of more recent history.
