    Anglia Libera: Protestant Liberties and the Hanoverian Succession, 1700–14

    The war against tyranny and prejudice 5 . Anglia libera: Protestant liberties and the Hanoverian succession, 1700–14 ith the publication of the splendid edition of Harrington’s works, WToland secured his position at the heart of a ‘true commonwealth’ interest. This intimate collaboration with elite Whig politicians led to Toland becoming the leading defender of Protestant liberty. This took immediate form in a vindication of the legitimacy of the Hanoverian succession under the terms of the Act of Settlement 1701. For many ‘commonwealthsmen’ around Europe the act that confirmed the succession of Sophia of Hanover was a republican device to exclude both popery and tyranny. The third Earl of Shaftesbury even wrote to Benjamin Furly in Holland, claiming that his ‘friends’ had been involved in the committee for the legislation.1 The subtitle of the act, ‘for the further limitation of the crown and better securing the rights and liberties of the subject’, established for many contemporaries its radical ambitions. A later commentator, echoing these points, described the act as ‘the last great statute which restrains the power of the crown’.2 As a direct response to William III’s speech to Parliament encouraging swift settle- ment of the succession after the death of the Duke of Gloucester, Parliament set in train the political process that resulted in the act in early March 1701. Despite the aftermath of a bitterly contested General Election, the act was passed without controversy. A contemporary, the Whig William Blathwayt, suggested that Whigs and Tories were collaborating ‘in weakening the Crown’.3 That an explicitly republican agenda was still tenable during the debates surrounding the act can be seen in works like The limitations for the next foreign successor (1701) that was sometimes (falsely) attributed to Toland.

The Apocalypse should be regarded as a peculiarly interesting portion of scripture: a blessing being promised those who read, hear, and keep the things which are written therein. It has been subjected to so many contradictory interpretations, that any attempt to comprehend its meaning is often regarded with distrust; and the impression has become very prevalent, that it is a “sealed book,”—that its meaning is so hidden in unintelligible symbols, that very little can be known respecting it; and that to attempt to unfold its meaning, is to tread presumptuously on forbidden ground. The attention of the Christian community has been called more of late to its study, by the publication of several elaborate Expositions. One in two large volumes, 8vo., by Prof.

Beal: Saint Galadriel Abstract: Galadriel is perceived in different, sometimes contradictory ways both within the world of Middle-earth and the world of Tolkien scholarship. In some ways, she is a liminal figure, on the threshold between Middle-earth and Valinor, and between secular and sacred influences from the primary world Tolkien actually lived in. One neglected context that may help readers to understand Tolkien’s characterization of Galadriel is the medieval cult of the saints. The cult of the saints provides specific practices and beliefs that shaped how Tolkien consciously characterized Galadriel as saint-like, especially in terms of her beauty, holiness, and power. Her saintliness has Marian qualities, in that female saints were expected to be like the Virgin Mary, but Galadriel is distinctly different from the Virgin Mary in key ways.

    The Nativity Panel of Isenheim Altarpiece and Its Relationship to The

    Ritchie, Jennifer Ann, The Nativity Panel of Isenheim Altarpiece and its relationship to the Sermo Angelicus of St. Birgitta of Sweden, Master of Arts (Art History), December 2000, 98pp. This thesis explores the relationship of the Sermo Angelicus of St. Birgitta of Sweden, written in the fourteenth century, with the Nativity/Concert of Angels panel of the Isenheim Altarpiece, painted by Matthias Grunewald in 1514 for a hospital and monastery run by the Antonite Order. Taking into consideration the context of the altarpiece, this thesis analyzes its iconography in relation to specific passages from the Sermo Angelicus, suggesting that the text was a possible source used by the Antonites in the Nativity/Concert of Angels panel. By doing so, parallel themes of salvation in both the text and the panel are discovered that in turn relate to the altarpiece in its entirety and present a message fashioned specifically for those patients at the hospital at Isenheim that viewed the altarpiece. 2 List of Illustrations Figure 1: The Crucifixion Figure 2: The Life of St. Anthony Figure 3: Detail of the Temptation of St. Anthony Figure 4: The Central Panel of the Isenheim Altarpiece Figure 5: Detail of the Concert of Angels Figure 6: The Virgin Mary in the Tabernacle Figure 7: Detail of the Nativity All illustrations taken from: George Scheja, Der Isenheim Altar des Matthias Grünewald, translated from Germany by Robert Erich Wolf (Cologne, 1969).

Schiller’s intention seems to have been merely to have prepared his reader for the tragedies by a lively picture of laxity of discipline and the mutinous dispositions of Wallenstein’s soldiery. It is not necessary as a preliminary explanation. The admirers of Schiller, who have abstracted their idea of that author from the “ Robbers,” and the “ Cabal and Love,” plays in which the main interest is produced by the excitement of curiosity, and in which the curiosity is excited by terrible and extraor¬ dinary incident, will not have perused without some portion of disappointment the dramas which it has been my employment to translate.

From the ghost stories of the Gothic to the zombies and vampires of twenty-first-century popular lit- erature, from Mrs Radcliffe to Ms Rowling, the fantastic has been popular with readers. Since Tolkien and his many imitators, however, it has become a major publishing phenomenon. In this volume, critics and authors of fantasy look at its history since the Enlightenment, introduce readers to some of the different codes for the reading and understanding of fantasy, and exam- ine some of the many varieties and subgenres of fantasy; from magical realism at the more literary end of the genre, to paranormal romance at the more pop- ular end.
