  • Cornishness and Englishness: Nested Identities Or Incompatible Ideologies?
    CORNISHNESS AND ENGLISHNESS: NESTED IDENTITIES OR INCOMPATIBLE IDEOLOGIES? Bernard Deacon (International Journal of Regional and Local History 5.2 (2009), pp.9-29) In 2007 I suggested in the pages of this journal that the history of English regional identities may prove to be ‘in practice elusive and insubstantial’.1 Not long after those words were written a history of the north east of England was published by its Centre for Regional History. Pursuing the question of whether the north east was a coherent and self-conscious region over the longue durée, the editors found a ‘very fragile history of an incoherent and barely self-conscious region’ with a sense of regional identity that only really appeared in the second half of the twentieth century.2 If the north east, widely regarded as the most coherent English region, lacks a historical identity then it is likely to be even more illusory in other regions. Although rigorously testing the past existence of a regional discourse and finding it wanting, Green and Pollard’s book also reminds us that history is not just about scientific accounts of the past. They recognise that history itself is ‘an important element in the construction of the region … Memory of the past is deployed, selectively and creatively, as one means of imagining it … We choose the history we want, to show the kind of region we want to be’.3 In the north east that choice has seemingly crystallised around a narrative of industrialization focused on the coalfield and the gradual imposition of a Tyneside hegemony over the centuries following 1650.

  • Worcestershire Has Fluctuated in Size Over the Centuries
    HUMAN GENETICS IN WORCESTERSHIRE AND THE SHAKESPEARE COUNTRY I. MORGAN WATKIN County Health Department, Abet ystwyth Received7.x.66 1.INTRODUCTION THEwestern limits of Worcestershire lie about thirty miles to the east of Offa's Dyke—the traditional boundary between England and Wales —yet Evesham in the south-eastern part of the county is described by its abbot in a petition to Thomas Cromwell in as situated within the Principality of Wales. The Star Chamber Proceedings (No. 4) in the reign of Henry VII refer to the bridge of stone at Worcester by which the king's subjects crossed from England into Wales and the demonstrations against the Act of 1430 regulating navigation along the Severn were supported by large numbers of Welshmen living on the right bank of the river in Worcestershire. The object of the investigation is to ascertain whether significant genetic differences exist in the population of Worcestershire and south-western Warwickshire and, in particular, whether the people living west of the Severn are more akin to the Welsh than to the English. The possibility of determining, on genetic grounds, whether the Anglo- Saxon penetration was strongest from the south up the rivers Severn and Avon, or across the watershed from the Trent in the north, or from the east through Oxfordshire and Warwickshire is also explored. 2. THECOUNTY Worcestershirehas fluctuated in size over the centuries and Stratford-on-Avon came for a period under its jurisdiction while Shipston-on-Stour, now a Warwickshire township, remained in one of the detached portions of Worcestershire until the turn of the present century.

  • Professor Stephen Pitti, Yale University Over the Last Century
    Professor Stephen Pitti, Yale University Over the last century, scholars have written dozens of important studies that excavate the deep and diverse histories of Latinos in the United States, and that show the central role that Latinos have played in American history for hundreds of years. Community historians, historical preservationists, museum professionals, and non-academic researchers have been equally important to chronicling and preserving those histories. In 2013, when the National Park Service published the American Latinos and the Making of the United States theme study, it recognized that Latino history is a critical and powerful area of scholarship, one that is vital for twenty-first century historical preservation and interpretation. The following bibliography offers only a fraction of the important books that might guide new discussions of the centrality of Latino history to the history of the United States: Acosta-Belén, Edna, and Carlos Enrique Santiago. Puerto Ricans in the United States: A Contemporary Portrait. Boulder: Lynne Rienner Publishers, 2006. Acosta-Belén, Edna. The Puerto Rican Woman: Perspectives on Culture, History, and Society.

  • 1729 to 1969 Has Offered Numerous Opportunities Fornew Worldmen
    286 BOOK REVIEWS JULY 1729 to 1969 has offered numerous opportunities for—new world men to honestly — on that hard-won lesson of the past infuse into their lives the values of freedom that the appearance of such books as this may be the last hope in this millennium. With the editor of the Pennsylvania Freeman, who somehow got the account from the Picayune some two months after it appeared, the lessons were in- escapable. Rebuking the North for its prejudice, that editor called on all "who fear danger in the nation from the presence init of a colored population to read it and ponder" (the Picayune account of the New Orleans celebration). He went on to suggest that his readers could quickly realize how colored freemen acted when fully protected by law and inpossession of their rights as Americans. He reminded the North that free Negroes were also devoted to the safety and welfare of their country in spite of the injustices they had received. Instead of this being publicized as in New Orleans, he charged, it was concealed in the false and malicious statements against the injured race. This was on March 10, 1851 ! But one thing needs to be added: that this book projects some of the concealments for our further examination. That its service becomes thus multifaceted is patent. For those who must go farther, a reading of Mr.McConneirs sources is mandatory. Our days of agonizing reappraisal are upon us. History con- cealed, attitudes sedulously cultivated at cross purposes with the na- tional purposes, social chasms artificially nurtured, all belong in the pantheon of a dead past whose examination should be for lesson- learning only.
