  • The Sun King and the Merry Monarch
    The Sun King and the Merry 1678 Monarch Explores the religious backdrop to one of the largest threats to England's throne - the Popish Plot. Aggravated by the murder of the magistrate Sir Edmund Berry Godfrey, the Plot reflected religious beliefs and insecurities at the By Calum time. Sir Godfrey was my ancestor (of some 11 generations). A visit to his Johnson grave in Westminster Abbey in 2014 inspired me to explore his role in this religious turmoil which hit hard in 17th Century England... The Clergyman and the King of England Leaving for his morning stroll on the 13th of August 1678, Charles II, King of England and Defender of the Faith heard for the first time of a plot to kill him. This was far from unusual. Indeed, just months earlier, a woman in Newcastle had been subjected to a large investigation after stating, "the King deserves the curse of all good and faithful wives for his bad example”. And yet, when Mr Kirkby (his lab assistant) brought Dr Israel Tonge to him at 8 o’clock that evening, the king listened impatiently before handing the matter over to his first minister…. The Religious Pendulum: Change of Faith in England To truly examine the tumult about to hit England in the 17th Century, it is important that we look first at the Religious scene in Europe some 150 years earlier. In the previous century the Reformation began and Protestantism gathered momentum, fuelled by a desire to reduce the exuberance of the Church in Rome with its elaborate sculptures, paintings and stained-glass windows.

  • A Royal Tragedy
    William Shakespeare's Richard III A Royal Tragedy Acts Three, Four, and Five Notes Provided by WISDOM Home Schooling's Online Socratic Dialogue Progra Dramatis Personae KING EDWARD IV – The leader of the Yorkists, who beat the Lancastrian king, Henry VI, and took his throne. During the final battle that beat the Lancastrians, King Edward was one of the three men who dishonourably stabbed Lady Anne’s husband when he was already down. Edward used to be a great warrior, but has now become sickly, and is more interested in entertainment and women than in feats of courage. Sons to the King: EDWARD, PRINCE OF WALES – About thirteen years old. King Edward IV and Queen Elizabeth’s older son, and heir to the throne of England. Wise beyond his years, and protective of his brother. RICHARD, DUKE OF YORK – About ten years old. Prince Edward’s younger brother, he is second in line to inherit the throne. Less serious than his brother, he is given to joking around and making fun of adults. Brothers to the King: GEORGE, DUKE OF CLARENCE – Clarence is a conflicted man. During the war between the Yorkists and the Lancastrians, he fought on whichever side seemed to be winning at the time. He was one of the three who stabbed Lady Anne’s husband. Despite his shifting alliances, Clarence nonetheless has a deep love for his wife and children. RICHARD, DUKE OF GLOUCESTER (pronounced “Gloss-ter”), who will one day become KING RICHARD III – Gloucester is a hunchback with a withered arm and a limp.

  • Civility, Patriotism and Performance: Cato and the Irish History Play
    Ireland, Enlightenment and the English Stage, 1740-1820 7 Civility, patriotism and performance: Cato and the Irish history play David O’Shaughnessy Recent scholarship has underscored history writing as central to the culture of the eighteenth century and as a key mode of Enlightenment thought and practice in both Britain and Ireland.1 British elites, conscious of their own historiographical failings, looked uneasily on the French exemplar national histories which sparked a patriotic urging to match their Continental competitors.2 Writ properly, it was suggested, history could also lead to a more rational patriotic attachment to one’s own country, one enriched by a recognition of other nations in the spirit of Enlightenment.3 The proper framing and writing of national history (understood in the main as that which adhered to rigorous neoclassical values) also conveyed a country’s teleological progressiveness, its emergence from barbarity towards modernity, civilization and associated institutional norms. The form and content of a well written national history—encompassing inter alia a decorous tone, idealized characters, moral didacticism—mirrored each other, allowing a reader to assess their own civility as well as that of the country and its people in question. Enlightenment is a term with a myriad of My sincere thanks to Emily Anderson and David Taylor for their helpful comments on an earlier version of this essay.

  • ANTIQUITY and WE Introduction Katarzyna Marciniak, from the Antiquity and We OBTA and Civilizational Studies
    Antiquity and We at the Centre for Studies on the Classical Tradition (OBTA) ANTIQUITY At the same time, thanks to Professor Kazimierz Kumaniecki and Professor Lidia Win- niczuk [...], a certain ideological message got through to us. It was not enunciated explicitly, but rather implicitly. It was the conviction that the reception of ancient tradition was a living part of Polish collective memory and a marker of its transformations; that being aware AND WE of that tradition authorized and obliged us to speak and think of Poland and its place within Mediterranean civilization. Jerzy Axer, from Antiquity and We – The Perspective of the Period of Transformation ANTIQUITY AND WE The Humanities are always about the future of man, which he himself is not able to create without reaching to the resources generated in the past. Interdisciplinariness is getting to know the process in practice. The dialogic character of the Humanities also begins here. As an exer- cise in dialogue, OBTA perfectly fits my vision of the role that we are to play in society. Jan Kieniewicz, from OBTA and Civilizational Studies. Experiences and Prospects [...] reception studies view Antiquity as a cultural experience. In consequence, rather than the classical world as such, we examine the images of that world as created in subsequent epochs, in accordance with the assumption that each new deciphering of the classical legacy gives us knowledge about those who make the decoding in the first place. In this way, Classical Anti- quity becomes a reference point for generations, societies, and both small and large groups of culture recipients, wherever Mediterranean Civilization has managed to reach.
