CATANIA CHICAGO, IL DECEMBER 2014 Copyright by Steven J. Catania, 2014 All rights reserved. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS During the three and a half years that this project has been underway, I have incurred a number of debts to those who have helped me along the path toward completion. This support began at Loyola University Chicago, where both the History Department and The Graduate School provided me with financial support, not only for an extended research trip to the United Kingdom, but also conferences where I have presented parts of this dissertation. I also received financial support from the History Graduate Student Association that allowed me to spend extra time in the archives. While in London, I had the good fortune to stay at a Jesuit community. Through the generosity of Fr. Michael Kirwan, SJ, I was able to stretch my financial resources and extend my stay long enough to complete my research. More than just a place to rest my head, the brothers at Garnet House made me feel at home, and provided a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere where I was able to discuss my research, along with a variety of philosophical and theological topics. Without their flexibility in accommodating my scheduling needs, this dissertation would still be in the works. Also while in England, I had the chance to meet with Dr. Timothy Peters. Timothy and his wife, Judith, let me stay with them for a few days just outside of Chester. My discussions with Timothy helped clarify parts of this dissertation’s arguments, and he also recommended a number of archival sources I might have iii otherwise overlooked. I am grateful to them for their hospitality and willingness to let a then-unknown stranger into their lives. I spent much time over the last few years at archives and libraries. I have been helped by numerous enthusiastic librarians and archivists along the way. In particular, I would like to thank John Hodgson, of The John Rylands Library at the University of Manchester, and Vicky Thorpe, from the Gloucestershire Archives, for their exceptional assistance. They each pulled material for me that did not appear in the catalog, located missing files, and continued to follow up on my research, even after I left Britain. Their efforts allowed me to examine correspondence that proved useful in the final version of the dissertation. Closer to home, the staff at Loyola’s Cudahy Library have been very responsive to my needs. Particularly, I would like to thank Jennifer Stegen and Linda Lotton for all their help in procuring my numerous requests through Interlibrary Loan. Jeanette Pierce, formerly the History Librarian at Cudahy, was wonderful in procuring new works for the library’s permanent collection, in addition to securing subscriptions to databases that expedited the completion of this project. I am also appreciative for the efforts of Dr. Steven Ruggiero of the Physics Department and Thurston Miller, the Physical Sciences Librarian, at The University of Notre Dame. They were able to help me locate important primary source material on very short notice, allowing me to meet a deadline. Many thanks also to Tom Ancona, Victoria Forth, and Brandon DeLallo for their library assistance. iv The History Department at Loyola surrounded me with excellent resources and knowledgeable individuals. I owe many thanks to Dr. Patricia Mooney-Melvin, Dr. Kyle Roberts, Dr. Suzanne Kaufman, Mrs. Lillian Hardison, and Mrs. Patricia Clemente. They have all been great supporters of mine and have been willing to assist me with their time and patience while I’ve been in the Ph.D. program. My neighbors in the Classics Department, especially Dr. Penny Livermore, through their generosity, warmth, and willingness to listen made all the late nights of writing at the Crown Center a pleasant experience. Similar thanks are necessary for all the members of the Dissertation Writing Group and the English Atlantic Writing Group, who have read and provided valuable feedback on dissertation chapters over the last two years. A very large thank you to my drinking companions and colleagues at Hamilton’s, Edgewater Lounge, and Argo Tea: John Krenzke, Amy Oberlin, Pete Kotowski, Kat Latham, Molly VanDeelen, Ashley Eckhardt, Tom Juettner, Stella Ress, Susan Garneau, and Kelly O’Connor. They have provided sage advice, receptive ears, wonderful conversation, and plenty of entertainment over the years. Ken George, although not a historian, proved himself to be an excellent person to brainstorm with, and through our conversations, I was able to improve the overall structure of this project. Some of the greatest debts that I owe are to the members of my dissertation committee. Dr. John Donoghue provided helpful feedback during the process and constantly challenged me to look at new possibilities and connections that I had not initially considered. His efforts to help clarify terms central to this project, while increasing the focus on reader reception, rather than just what the newspapers said, has v helped me produce a more nuanced dissertation. Fr. John McManamon, SJ has been invaluable throughout my entire graduate career at Loyola. Through many meetings in his office and over meals, we talked through a number of the problems and issues that arose during the research and writing phases. Every time we met, he had helpful suggestions and was, without fail, a positive and supportive voice reminding me that I could complete this project. His comments, corrections, and ‘big picture questions’ helped me refine a number of rough drafts into a more polished final product. My supervisor, Dr. Robert Bucholz, deserves more credit and thanks than I could ever hope to express in this acknowledgment section. From the very first class I took at Loyola, he has challenged and pushed me to be a better scholar, teacher, and person. Although when he agreed to become my supervisor he downplayed the amount of time and assistance he would be able to provide, after seven years, countless office visits, and hundreds of pre-dawn emails, I can confidently state he went above and beyond anything that could be expected of him. His style of supervision was exactly what I needed: supportive, helpful, and encouraging, but still forcing me to tackle difficult questions and to ‘think harder.’ While I owe a great deal to Dr. Bucholz and the rest of my committee for all their assistance, any errors that remain in this dissertation are solely my responsibility. I cannot imagine what it would have been like to undertake this dissertation without the support of my friends and family. To my friends at Western Illinois University, especially Dr. Lee Brice and Dr. Georgia Tsouvala, I appreciate all the encouragement, from the day I showed up in an introductory Western Civilization course, vi through late nights on the Acropolis during study abroad, and down to the present day. My friends at the University of Chicago and from back home have always been supportive and provided a much-needed release from writing and researching. My family, including my grandmothers, Marge Ruffatti and Doris Catania, have encouraged me during the many holidays to keep plugging along and been two of the greatest cheerleaders whenever I achieved a new milestone in the program. My parents, Frank and Sharon Catania, have, without fail, supported me throughout the dissertation process. Although they, at times, did not fully grasp the scope of what I was working on, they continued to encourage me to keep researching and writing. Their dedication to my craft goes back to my childhood, even if they do not realize it. My father’s love of history meant that whenever there was a new museum exhibit or an historic marker on the side of the road, he would be there. And I was always along for the trip. This helped spark my passion for the field. My mother’s dislike of history provided me other opportunities to continue my intellectual pursuits, particularly through her affinity for mathematics. Through her countless hours of dedicated and patient instruction, I mastered the material that confounded me and saw, first-hand, the importance of good teaching. Over the years, both of them have read hundreds of drafts of papers and submissions, always seeking to help me put my best foot forward. Whenever I am in a classroom, talking to students about my own research, or reading through an essay, I see the results of my parents’ support. My brother, Mike Catania, has supported me in every conceivable way while I have worked on this project, but also since I entered graduate school for my MA.

  • Caricature: the Loaded Drawing
    Caricature: The Loaded Drawing The taste of the day leans entirely to caricature. We have lost our relish for the simple beauties of nature. We are no longer satisfied with propriety and neatness, we must have something grotesque and disproportioned, cumbrous with ornament and gigantic in its dimensions Morning Chronicles 1 1, August, 1796 Exaggeration in visual expression is found in nearly all cultures and throughout most historical periods. What this paper will discuss is the use of caricature to communicate satirical/humorous content in visual genres of Western Europe and specifically 18th Century England by highlighting the work of James Gillray. Caricature of Libyan leader Caricature is a form of visual exaggeration/distortion Muammar Gaddafi held by that generally pertains to the human face and/or figure drawn protestors on 2. 27. 2011. Source: NY Times online for humorous, critical or vindictive motives. As the title suggests, a particular facial part is exaggerated to catch the viewers’ attention and relate that quality to underlying aspects of the personality – hence a caricature is a portrait that is loaded with meaning rather than mere description. The centuries old premise to this interpretation is that outward appearances belie personality traits. A second interpretation of caricature - and the one this paper focuses on - combines the transformative aspects of caricature rendering techniques with satire to produce graphic images that provoke meaning in political, social and moral arenas. A verbal cousin to visual caricature is satire. Satirizing the human condition is as universal as exaggeration, and while found in early Greco- Roman art and literature wanes through the medieval period.

From his student days he had been an avid book collector. He formed relationships with antiquarian booksellers throughout the north of England. His interests were eclectic but focused on English literature of the 17th and 18th centuries. Several of my father’s books have survived in the present collection. During childhood I paid little attention to his books but in later years I too became a collector. During the war I was evacuated to the Lake District and my school in Keswick incorporated Greta Hall, where Coleridge lived with Robert Southey and his family. So from an early age the Lake Poets were a significant part of my life and a focus of my book collecting.

  • The Emergence of a Catholic Identity and the Need For
    THE EMERGENCE OF A CATHOLIC IDENTITY AND THE NEED FOR EDUCATIONAL AND SOCIAL PROVISION IN NINETEENTH CENTURY BRIGHTON SANDY KENNEDY UNIVERSITY OF LONDON INSTITUTE OF EDUCATION DECEMBER 2013 MY DECLARATION PLUS WORD COUNT I hereby declare that, except where explicit attribution is made, the work presented in this thesis is entirely my own. Word Count: 84,109 ABSTRACT The 1829 Act of Emancipation was designed to return to Catholics the full rights of citizenship which had been denied them for over two hundred years. In practice, Protestant mistrust and Establishment fears of a revival of popery continued unabated. Yet thirty years earlier, in Regency Brighton, the Catholic community although small seemed to have enjoyed an unprecedented degree of tolerance and acceptance. This thesis questions this apparent anomaly and asks whether in the century that followed, Catholics managed to unite across class and nationality divides and establish their own identity, or if they too were subsumed into the culture of the time, subject to the strict social and hierarchical ethos of the Victorian age. It explores the inevitable tension between 'principle' and 'pragmatism' in a town so heavily dependent upon preserving an image of relaxed and welcoming populism. This is a study of the changing demography of Brighton as the Catholic population expanded and schools and churches were built to meet their needs, mirroring the situation in the country as a whole. It explains the responsibilities of Catholics to themselves and to the wider community. It offers an in-depth analysis of educational provision in terms of the structure, administration and curriculum in the schools, as provided both by the growing number of religious orders and lay teachers engaged in the care and education of both the wealthy and the poor.

In 1761, George III commissioned a large group of philosophical instruments from the London instrument-maker George Adams. The purchase sprang from a complex plan of moral education devised for Prince George in the late 1750s by the third Earl of Bute. Bute’s plan applied the philosophy of Frances Hutcheson, who placed ‘the culture of the heart’ at the foundation of moral education. To complement this affective development, Bute also acted on seventeenth-century arguments for the value of experimental philosophy and geometry as exercises that habituated the student to recognizing truth, and to pursuing it through long and difficult chains of reasoning.

  • Defining John Bull: Political Caricature and National Identity in Late Georgian England
    Published on Reviews in History (https://reviews.history.ac.uk) Defining John Bull: Political Caricature and National Identity in Late Georgian England Review Number: 360 Publish date: Saturday, 1 November, 2003 Author: Tamara Hunt ISBN: 1840142685 Date of Publication: 2003 Price: £57.50 Pages: 452pp. Publisher: Ashgate Publisher url: https://www.ashgate.com/default.aspx?page=637&calcTitle=1&title_id=1454&edition_id=1525 Place of Publication: Aldershot Reviewer: David Johnson The period between 1760 and 1820 was the golden age of British pictorial satire. But only in the last 20 years have the artists and their work attracted serious study in their own right. Rather than being seen as attractive but essentially incidental illustrations for the study of British society and politics, political and social caricatures are now analysed in depth as both a reflection of, and sometimes a formative influence upon, public opinion. Increasingly their propagandist role as tools in the hands of national government or opposition is recognised. The creators of what are often highly sophisticated and intricate images are now regarded as serious artists, and the importance of their place in the political and social world of the time recognised. The setting up of a national centre in Britain for the study of cartoons and caricature at the University of Kent at Canterbury (see http://library.kent.ac.uk/cartoons [2]) and the major James Gillray exhibition at the Tate Gallery in 2001 (see http://www.tate.org.uk/britain/exhibitions/gillray/ [3]) have set the agenda, while Diana Donald's The Age of Caricature: Satirical Prints in the Reign of George III (New Haven and London: Yale University Press, 1996) is currently the seminal text.

(Signature) Department of FINE ARTS The University of British Columbia Vancouver, Canada Date MAY 25. 1992 DE-6 (2/88) ABSTRACT Two features that were viewed by Britons as distinguishing their nation from other Western countries in late-eighteenth century were its Constitutional Monarchy and the comparative freedoms enjoyed by the press. Graphic political satire lies at the juncture of these two features. This thesis examines the dual role that graphic caricatures of King George III played as satirical commentary and as political critique on the unique political stage of "out-of-doors" politics in the 1780s.
