A French clock on the mantel-piece, framed of brass and crystal, wliicli betrayed its inner structure as tlie transparent sides of some insects betray tlieir vital processes, struck ten with the mellow and lingering clangor of a distant cathedral bell. A gentleman, who was seated in front of the lire read- ing a newspaper, looked up at the clock to see what hour it was, to save himself the trouble of counting the slow, musical strokes. The eyes he raised were light gray, with a blue glint of steel in them, shaded by lashes as black as jet. The hair was also as black as hair can be, and was parted near the middle of his forehead. It was inclined to curl, but had not the length required by this inclination. The dark brown mustache was the only ornament the razor had spared on the wholesome face, the outline of which was clear and keen. The face suited the hands—it had the refinement and gentle- ness of one delicately bred, and the vigorous lines and color of one equally at home in field and court; 6 THE BREAD-WINNERS.

We made it. iii ABSTRACT Olivieri, Michelina, The closet romantic: Anne Lister’s use of and contributions to British romanticism. Master of Arts (English), May, 2021, Sam Houston State University, Huntsville, Texas. In this thesis, I explore Anne Lister as a Romantic writer. While much criticism has focused on Lister’s place in queer history, comparatively little has examined her writing itself. Thus, this thesis aims to place Lister’s writings within popular Romantic genres and in conversation with other Romantic writers. Chapter I is an introduction to Anne Lister and the scholarship that has surrounded her since the first collection of her diaries was published in the 1980s and establishes the arguments that will be made in each chapter. In Chapter II, I examine how Lister uses Romantic works and their writers to construct her own personal identity despite her lack of participation in either the written tradition or in the major social movements of the period during her lifetime.
  • Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison

    Historic Costuming Presented by Jill Harrison

    Historic Southern Indiana Interpretation Workshop, March 2-4, 1998 Historic Costuming Presented By Jill Harrison IMPRESSIONS Each of us makes an impression before ever saying a word. We size up visitors all the time, anticipating behavior from their age, clothing, and demeanor. What do they think of interpreters, disguised as we are in the threads of another time? While stressing the importance of historically accurate costuming (outfits) and accoutrements for first- person interpreters, there are many reasons compromises are made - perhaps a tight budget or lack of skilled construction personnel. Items such as shoes and eyeglasses are usually a sticking point when assembling a truly accurate outfit. It has been suggested that when visitors spot inaccurate details, interpreter credibility is downgraded and visitors launch into a frame of mind to find other inaccuracies. This may be true of visitors who are historical reenactors, buffs, or other interpreters. Most visitors, though, lack the heightened awareness to recognize the difference between authentic period detailing and the less-than-perfect substitutions. But everyone will notice a wristwatch, sunglasses, or tennis shoes. We have a responsibility to the public not to misrepresent the past; otherwise we are not preserving history but instead creating our own fiction and calling it the truth. Realistically, the appearance of the interpreter, our information base, our techniques, and our environment all affect the first-person experience. Historically accurate costuming perfection is laudable and reinforces academic credence. The minute details can be a springboard to important educational concepts; but the outfit is not the linchpin on which successful interpretation hangs.

It began as a royal land grant given to Sir Thomas West and his wife Lady Cessalye Shirley in 1613 and developed into the existing estate one can currently visit by 1725. The present day estate consists of the mansion itself and ten additional buildings set along a Queen Anne forecourt. These buildings include a Root Cellar, Pump House, two-story Plantation Kitchen, two story Laundry, Smokehouse, Storehouse with an Ice House below, a second Storehouse for grain, Brick Stable, Log Barn and Pigeon House or Dovecote. At one time the Great House was augmented by a North and a South Flanker: they were two free standing wings, 60 feet long and 24 feet wide and provided accommodations for visitors and guests. The North Flanker burned and its barrel-vaulted basement was converted into a root cellar and the South Flanker was torn down in 1868.
  • A Short History of the Wearing of Clerical Collars in the Presbyterian Tradition

    A Short History of the Wearing of Clerical Collars in the Presbyterian Tradition

    A Short History of the Wearing of Clerical Collars in the Presbyterian Tradition Introduction There does not seem to have been any distinctive everyday dress for Christian pastors up until the 6th century or so. Clergy simply wore what was common, yet muted, modest, and tasteful, in keeping with their office. In time, however, the dress of pastors remained rather conservative, as it is want to do, while the dress of lay people changed more rapidly. The result was that the dress of Christian pastors became distinct from the laity and thus that clothing began to be invested (no pun intended) with meaning. Skipping ahead, due to the increasing acceptance of lay scholars in the new universities, the Fourth Lateran council (1215) mandated a distinctive dress for clergy so that they could be distinguished when about town. This attire became known as the vestis talaris or the cassock. Lay academics would wear an open front robe with a lirripium or hood. It is interesting to note that both modern day academic and clerical garb stems from the same Medieval origin. Councils of the Roman Catholic church after the time of the Reformation stipulated that the common everyday attire for priests should be the cassock. Up until the middle of the 20th century, this was the common street clothes attire for Roman Catholic priests. The origin of the clerical collar does not stem from the attire of Roman priests. It’s genesis is of protestant origin. The Origin of Reformed Clerical Dress In the time of the Reformation, many of the Reformed wanted to distance themselves from what was perceived as Roman clerical attire.

    Dressing for Success: Lawyers & Clothing in Nineteenth Century

    Dressing for Success: Lawyers & Clothing in Nineteenth Century America M.H. Hoeflich* When I arrived at the Cravath law firm as a new associate in the autumn of 1979, I was surprised to discover at orientation that the firm would provide each new associate with a fairly sizeable credit at Brooks Brothers to assist us in purchasing a suitable professional wardrobe.1 We did not have great discretion in our choices; the firm had instructed Brooks Brothers that we were to purchase clothing from an approved list that set out what we should buy. For male associates there was a set number of suits of particular colors and material—a blue sport coat, a leather briefcase, etc. Female associates had a similar list with gender-appropriate differences. Thus, we were all to dress in the appropriate Cravath manner.2 Today, very few firms explicitly dictate the type or style of clothing their lawyers should wear. Many firms, particularly those outside the East Coast, even permit their lawyers a degree of flexibility in their dress so long as it is respectable (I would imagine that no firm, even today, would be happy if one of their lawyers appeared in a speedo, even on the hottest day). Indeed, this flexibility in expectations about dress may increase in the wake of the extensive telework that has been embraced in the midst of the current pandemic. However, many law firms still expect their lawyers to look “professional,” but the origins of what is considered appropriate dress for lawyers has been lost in the mists of time and very little is written about the subject today.3 Certainly, no lawyer or law professor would * John H.
