To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • The Art of a Reigning Queen As Dynastic Propaganda in Twelfth-Century Spain
    The Art of a Reigning Queen as Dynastic Propaganda in Twelfth-Century Spain By Therese Martin Recent studies of queenship have allowed us to look closely at various aspects of the life of a ruler's consort, from patronage to reputation to commemoration, with a focus on the queens who were wives or mothers of kings. This study, however, will focus on Urraca of Leon-Castile (reigned 1109-26) to examine the unusual role of a reigning queen, that is, the king's daughter and heir to his throne, whose position carried a greater dynastic weight than did a queen consort's.1 The latter, although far from powerless, wielded authority only because she was mar- ried to a king or, in the case of regents and widows, was the mother of a king.2 These women married into the royal line, whereas reigning queens were of the royal line. In the central Middle Ages, reigning queens were a brief anomaly of the twelfth century, a not-altogether-successful experiment from the point of view of their courts and their heirs. Matilda of England (d. 1167), Melisende of Jeru- salem (d. 1161), and Urraca of Leon-Castile (d. 1126) inherited their kingdoms from their fathers.3 All had turbulent reigns, brought on by parallel situations: the kings, lacking legitimate sons, named daughters as heirs to the throne, but pow- I am grateful to James D'Emilio and Judith Golden for their comments on a prior version of this article, and to the anonymous Speculum readers, whose suggestions were most helpful.

  • Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: the State Portraits
    Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: The State Portraits Erin McBurney Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Erin McBurney !All rights reserved ABSTRACT Art and Power in the Reign of Catherine the Great: The State Portraits Erin McBurney This dissertation examines the relationship between art and power in the reign of Catherine II of Russia (1762-1796). It considers Catherine’s state portraits as historical texts that revealed symbolic manifestations of autocratic power, underscoring the close relationship between aesthetics and politics during the reign of Russia’s longest serving female ruler. The Russian empress actively exploited the portrait medium in order to transcend the limitations of her gender, assert legitimacy and display herself as an exemplar of absolute monarchy. The resulting symbolic representation was protean and adaptive, and it provided Catherine with a means to negotiate the anomaly of female rule and the ambiguity of her Petrine inheritance. In the reign of Catherine the Great, the state portraits functioned as an alternate form of political discourse.
