As promised in the last volume of the Marriage Registers of Derbyshire, the marriage records of St. Alkmund's form the first instalment of the Registers of the County Town. The Editors do not doubt that these will prove especially interesting to Derbyshire people. In Volume V they hope to print further instalments of town registers in the shape of those of St. Michael's and also some village registers. It will be noticed that St. Alkmund's register begins at the earliest possible date, 1538, but of the remainder, two do not start till the seventeenth century and one, that of Quarndon, synchronizes with the passing of Lord Hardwicke's Marriage Act. 1379092 It will be convenient to give here a list of the Derby- shire parishes of which the Registers have been printed in this series: Volume I.

  • The Abhorred Name of Turk”: Muslims and the Politics of Identity in Seventeenth- Century English Broadside Ballads
    “The Abhorred Name of Turk”: Muslims and the Politics of Identity in Seventeenth- Century English Broadside Ballads A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Katie Sue Sisneros IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Dr. Nabil Matar, adviser November 2016 Copyright 2016 by Katie Sue Sisneros Acknowledgments Dissertation writing would be an overwhelmingly isolating process without a veritable army of support (at least, I felt like I needed an army). I’d like to acknowledge a few very important people, without whom I’d probably be crying in a corner, having only typed “My Dissertation” in bold in a word document and spending the subsequent six years fiddling with margins and font size. I’ve had an amazing committee behind me: John Watkins and Katherine Scheil braved countless emails and conversations, in varying levels of panic, and offered such kind, thoughtful, and eye-opening commentary on my work that I often wonder what I ever did to deserve their time and attention. And Giancarlo Casale’s expertise in Ottoman history has proven to be equal parts inspiring and intimidating. Also, a big thank you to Julia Schleck, under whom I worked during my Masters degree, whose work was the inspiration for my entry into Anglo-Muslim studies. The bulk of my dissertation work would have been impossible (this is not an exaggeration) without access to one of the most astounding digital archives I’ve ever seen. The English Broadside Ballad Archive, maintained by the Early Modern Center in the English Department at the University of California, Santa Barbara, has changed markedly over the course of the eight or so years I’ve been using it, and the tireless work of its director Patricia Fumerton and the whole EBBA team has made it as comprehensive and intuitive a collection as any scholar could ask for.

  • Demonising Discourse ': the Traveller Community's Struggle Against The
    `Demonising Discourse ’: the Traveller Community’s struggle against the Elite Voice of RTE Abstract As the Irish Government introduces a selection of changes to home defence law, through the Criminal Law (Defence and Dwelling) Act 2011, the Traveller Community, and the Ward/Nally case in particular, are regrettably reference points propelling public support for the use of force in home protection. The national broadcaster, RTE, has proved to be a central player in the constitution of difference; however, it is often an overlooked and under-researched arena. This paper focuses on the use of the elite televisual forum of current affairs programming on RTE television to unveil the complex and multiple ways in which discourses of belonging are mobilized with respect to the Irish - Traveller Community. It draws on one emotive event involving the Traveller and settled communities, the Ward/Nally case, and looks at the ways in which this forum interpellates the viewer, solidifying rituals of representation that remain within the viewers’ consciousness long after a programme has been broadcast. Keywords: Irish – Traveller; RTE; Media power; Discourse; Framing Introduction On the 14th of October 2004 a member of the Traveller Community, John Ward, and his son Tom, drove into the yard of a smallholding belonging to a single man, Padraig Nally, on the West Coast of Ireland, in Co Mayo. John Ward, the car’s passenger, left the car on the pretext of looking for scrap metal, and proceeded towards Nally’s house. The exact details of what happened next are highly disputed, but what is known is that John Ward was shot twice by the farmer, Nally; once close to the door of the farmer’s house and the second time, the fatal shot, in the back on the main road, as John Ward fled from the property.

John Ward, Doctor of Laws and Rhetoric Professor in Gresham College, London, bequeathed £ 1,200 Bank of England Stock, the interest of which was to be used for two Baptist students. The two young men were to be between the ages of fourteen and eighteen, sons of ProtestaDtDissenter8, (Baptists by preference), living in England. The students chosen must "have made a good proficiency in Latin and Greek." After continuing for two years, or less, in some good Grammar School, " for their further improvement in the said languages, and their gaining some knowledge in the Hebrew tongue," they were to be sent to some University in Scotland (a preference to be given to the University of Edin­ burgh), "to reside there for the space of four years in order to their still greater improvement in the knowledge of the Latin, Greek and Hebrew languages togethec with their course of such other studies, in which according to the usage of such University, Students are employed who are designed for the profession of Divinity either as Ministers or Tutors." After four years of diligent application to studies the student was to be maintained " during the further space of one whole year in order to give him a competent time to prepare himself after quitting the University for future usefulness to the publick."

  • Venues of Popular Politics in London, 1790–C. 1845
    6. ‘Temple of Knowledge and Reason’: culture and politics at 3 Blackfriars Road, Surrey As we have seen in the previous chapters, by the early nineteenth century the very name of the Crown and Anchor tavern clearly signposted its political associations and identity. The tavern’s longstanding presence on the metropolitan landscape, combined with its early liberal-aristocratic connections, helped to secure its place as a bastion for London’s politicised middling classes. If the Crown and Anchor tavern had come to symbolise the moderate and measured opposition to the political landscape during the Reform agitation of late 1830, events south of the Thames signalled that plebeian radicals with more pressing intent had found a new home. On the evening of 8 November, a crowd of almost 2000 assembled at the Rotunda, Richard Carlile’s newly leased premises in Blackfriars Road, Surrey, during a period of intense unrest in the Reform crisis. The magistrates of the city, wrote one contemporary observer, were ‘all of the opinion’ that the ‘heated harangues’ at the Rotunda were the source of the rioting that gripped the city.1 Their attention on the building was also fuelled by rumoured plans of riots during the King’s expected visit to the city, and of assassination plots against Prime Minister, Lord Wellington, and Home Secretary, Robert Peel. Carlile was also well aware of the focus of the authorities on his new building. Anticipating a riot on 8 November, he reportedly instructed the cleaner at the Rotunda to make six staves out of the rails of some staircases to ‘imitate those of Constables’, paint them tricoloured and inscribe them with the word ‘Rotunda’.2 Whether Carlile really intended the staves to be used in defending the premises or whether they served a purely provocative symbolic purpose is unclear.

As an allied part of this interes! he researched the life of John Ward, a fellow amateur archaeologist ofan earlier era. Family History John Ward knew little of the origin of his family beyond the fact that they lived in the villages to the east of Worcester. In a letter to his nephew he wrote: "... most of them appear to have been farmers, and to have been old fashioned Tory churchmen, stodgt probably, but I have never heard of them being disreputable or unsteady. Respectable members of society, I feel sure, but none distinguished for intellectuality, " The earliest member of the family that can be traced is John Ward of Peopleton, who married Elizabeth Bluck on 27th September 1755 at the Church of the Holy Cross, Pershore.
