The material presented herein has been compiled and, in some cases, shamelessly stolen from: The history of Roman Britannia and post-Roman, dark age England as presented through various websites and literary texts1 Assorted Arthurian legends as presented through various websites and literary texts2 Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page) The History Files (http://www.historyfiles.co.uk/MainFeaturesIndex.htm) GURPS 1st Edition Camelot GURPS 3rd Edition Spirits GURPS 3rd Edition Faerie GURPS 3rd Edition Celtic Myth Legends of Excalibur: Arthurian Adventures by Charles Rice The Great Pendragon Campaign 5th Edition by Greg Stafford Saxons! Wolves in the Fold of Arthur’s Britain by Loo F. Carrick and Roderick Robertson Etc., Etc., Et. Al. This manual is not meant for publication or sale. It has been compiled and provided free of charge as a visual aid to those playing in my Legendary Britannia role playing campaign. This manual is a living document and subject to change as appropriate. 1 I have perused far too many to list singly herein. However, this is a living document. Thus, as I revise and add to the material herein, I may come to rely on some individual references more than others. Should that happen, I will cite and give credit to those references. 2 Ibid. i LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Chapter 1 Maps This chapter is subject to the most change, primarily in the form of additional maps. As player characters travel through Britannia, or anywhere else for that matter, they will have opportunities for access to maps. Those maps will be included in this section as appropriate over the course of the campaign. Britannia Albion is the oldest known name for the island of Britain. Albion and the surrounding islands were known as the Britanniae Isles. Upon occupation of the island, the Romans referred to it as Britannia. The term later came to mean the Roman province that extended over much of the island but did not include those land’s north of Hadrian’s Wall which was called Caledonia (known today as Scotland). Figure 1 indicates the names and locations of the Celtic tribes living on Britannia at the start of the Roman occupation in AD 43. Figure 2 is a political map of Britannia in AD 400 at the end of the Roman occupation. The kingdom names in many cases coincide with the primary tribe in the area. The primary Roman “states” are indicated in red. After the Roman withdrawal, this political structure was gradually abandoned in favor of the independent kingdoms. Of note, some tribes that existed prior to the Roman occupation were either Romanized beyond recognition, melded with other Celtic tribes in area, and/or pushed out of there native region to seek refuge in other parts of Britannia or on Hibernia. In some cases, as with the Icenii, the Romans decimated tribal populations altogether in response to resistance or uprisings. Figure 3 is a political map of Britannia in AD 475 at the time when the legendary Arthur was beginning his rise to power. The green regions indicate those areas either under Saxon control or Saxon invasion. 1 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Hibernia Ierne is, arguably, the oldest name for the island of Ireland. The Romans referred to it as Hibernia or Scotia. Figure 2 contains a political map indicating the names and locations of Hibernian Celtic tribes/kingdoms at the end of the Roman occupation of Britannia. Hibernian influence may become more important as the campaign progresses. If so, this section will be augmented with additional information and materials as discovered by the player party or deemed appropriate by the GM. Armorica Armorica is an ancient name associated the a significant portion of Gaul (France) including the Brittany Peninsula, the territory between the Seine and Loire Rivers, down the Atlantic Coast, and inland to some indeterminate point. A large number of Celtic tribes lived in this area and trade between Britannia and Armorica was long established by the time the Romans occupied it. There were several migrations from Britannia to Armorica during the Roman occupation and after the Roman withdrawal, most likely due to increased raids by Vikings and Hibernians as well as the later invasion Britannia by the Saxons. Mainland Europe By the beginning of Arthur’s reign, the Rome Empire has lost much of its territory to invading Teutonic tribes, some of whom have been pushed from their traditional homelands by pressure from the Huns. Rome is the seat of the Papacy but Constantinople is the seat of the Roman Empire. Italy itself is under Teutonic rule. Rome makes repeated attempts to regain its lost territories with some near term success. Ultimately, Roman Imperial influence dwindles and fades. However, Roman traditions and laws have made their mark on the populations of Western Europe. These influences are seen incorporated into the law, religions, military strategies, and daily lives in the new Teutonic kingdoms. 2 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Figure 1 – Britannia AD 43 – Celtic Tribes at the Beginning of Roman Occupation 3 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Figure 2 – Britannia AD 400 – Political Map at the End of Roman Occupation 4 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Figure 3 – Britannia AD 475 – Political Map at the Beginning of Arthur’s Rise to Power 5 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Figure 4 – Armorica 54 BC – Roman Geographical Area of Armorica at Time of Julius Caesar Figure 5 – Europe AD 476 6 LEGENDARY BRITANNIA Chapter 2 History To understand the social, diplomatic, and military nuances of Arthurian Britannia it is important to have a brief understanding of the history of that region both before Julius Caesar invaded and during the Roman occupation. The period of time immediately following the final Roman withdrawal from Britannia is of greater import because it directly sets the stage for Arthur’s rise to power and defines the forces against which he struggled in order to unify Britannia.

Annual Colorado Shakespeare 5®stii>a( The Comedy of Errors • The Tempest • King John DEPARTMENT OF THEATRE AND DANCE c n L n u a n o s rxjkesn«ciK« University of Colorado® Boulder, Colorado 80309 |Zc?sti'waL Summer 1976 Dear Lover of Shakespeare’s Works: Those who truly love Shakespeare in the theatre will be pleased to learn about the CSh A n ­ nual, a scholarly journal devoted to the art of producing Shakespeare for contemporary audi­ ences. Eighteen years of experience performing all the Shakespeare plays in the Mary Rip- pon Theatre leave us with a vivid realization of the extent to which the full appreciation of Shakespeare’s content and craftsmanship is dependent on relating to his work in the context for which it was written—the artistic transaction of theatrical production. A significant part of Shakespeare’s greatness has been his capacity to speak meaningfully and movingly to successive generations and diverse cultures. On whatever pedestals we would put him, we must certainly maintain a place for him in our contemporary theatres. His work calls for actors and scenic artists, stages and audiences. It also warrants the attention of those whose scholarship can reflect their practice of his own theatrical art and their sharing of his commitment to make scripts come alive in the theatre. To stimulate such at­ tention and to make available to others the fruits of such attention—these are the goals of the CSF Annual. The A nnual will grow out of each Colorado Shakespeare Festival. Its basic format will consist of three sections.

  • THE SUN, the MOON and FIRMAMENT in CHUKCHI MYTHOLOGY and on the RELATIONS of CELESTIAL BODIES and SACRIFICE Ülo Siimets
    THE SUN, THE MOON AND FIRMAMENT IN CHUKCHI MYTHOLOGY AND ON THE RELATIONS OF CELESTIAL BODIES AND SACRIFICE Ülo Siimets Abstract This article gives a brief overview of the most common Chukchi myths, notions and beliefs related to celestial bodies at the end of the 19th and during the 20th century. The firmament of Chukchi world view is connected with their main source of subsistence – reindeer herding. Chukchis are one of the very few Siberian indigenous people who have preserved their religion. Similarly to many other nations, the peoples of the Far North as well as Chukchis personify the Sun, the Moon and stars. The article also points out the similarities between Chukchi notions and these of other peoples. Till now Chukchi reindeer herders seek the supposed help or influence of a constellation or planet when making important sacrifices (for example, offering sacrifices in a full moon). According to the Chukchi religion the most important celestial character is the Sun. It is spoken of as an individual being (vaúrgún). In addition to the Sun, the Creator, Dawn, Zenith, Midday and the North Star also belong to the ranks of special (superior) beings. The Moon in Chukchi mythology is a man and a being in one person. It is as the ketlja (evil spirit) of the Sun. Chukchi myths about several stars (such as the North Star and Betelgeuse) resemble to a great extent these of other peoples. Keywords: astral mythology, the Moon, sacrifices, reindeer herding, the Sun, celestial bodies, Chukchi religion, constellations. The interdependence of the Earth and celestial as well as weather phenomena has a special meaning for mankind for it is the co-exist- ence of the Sun and Moon, day and night, wind, rainfall and soil that creates life and warmth and provides the daily bread.

SYNOPSIS This thesis consists of an Introduction, followed by Part I (chapters 1-2) in which nineteenth- century criticism of the play is discussed, particular attention being paid to Helen Faucit's essay on Imogen, and its relationship to her playing of the role. In Part II the stags-history of Oymbcline in London is traced from 1785 to Irving's Lyceum production of 1896. Directions from promptbooks used by G-.P. Cooke, W.C. Macready, Helen Eaucit, and Samuel ±helps are transcribed and discussed, and in the last chapter the influence of Bernard Shaw on Ellen Terry's Imogen is considered in the light of their correspondence and the actress's rehearsal copies of the play. There are three appendices: a list of performances; transcriptions of two newspaper reviews (from 1843 and 1864) and one private diary (Gordon Crosse's notes on the Lyceum Gymbeline); and discussion of one of the promptbooks prepared for Charles Kean's projected production.

Their Cymbeline, directed by Mark Lamos (who later moved to opera), ended with an unforgettable scene between Imogen and her husband: “Why did you throw your wedded lady from you? Think that you are upon a rock and throw me again.” His reply, “Hang there like fruit, my soul, till the tree die.” This exchange touched me deeply and really convinced me to try some music for the songs that appear in the play as well as this beautiful expression of love. I noticed the familiar “Hark, hark the lark” was sung by the frightful Cloten.

  • In Het Spoor Van De Discipelen / De Vergeten Beginjaren Van Het Christendom
    In het spoor van In het spoor van de discipelen - De beginjaren vergeten van het Christendom de discipelen De vergeten beginjaren Jozef van Arimathea stichtte eerste Christelijke kerk in Brittannië van het Christendom Dit boek pakt de geschiedenis op kort na de verrijzenis van de Here Jezus Christus. Jozef van Arimathea speelde in die geschiedenis een belangrijke rol. Zeer oude geschriften vertellen dat deze man door zijn genadeloze vijanden op zee werd gezet. Samen met een paar trouwe metgezellen, in een open boot zonder roeiriemen of zeil, dreven zij ver van hun Judeese thuisland af. Zij keerden ook nooit meer terug, maar stonden daarentegen aan de basis van de verbreiding van het Christelijk geloof. Jozef van Arimathea was de eerste apostel aan Brittannië. Hij plantte het vaandel van Christus 562 jaar voor Augustinus voet zette op het door zeeën omringde eiland. Met twaalf andere discipelen van de Here Jezus stichtte hij, in wat nu Engeland heet, de eerste openlijke Christelijke kerk. Brittannië werd de voedingsbodem, waar een niet aflatende stroom van jonge bekeerlingen werd opgeleid door de apostelen en discipelen van Christus, die daarna werden uitgezonden naar andere landen om het evangelie te onderwijzen. Dit boek verhaalt ook zeer boeiend over de het ontstaan van de eerste George F. Jowett F. George Christelijke gemeente in Rome, de aanvaarding van het Evangelie door de Kelten, hun oorlogen tegen de Romeinse keizers en de gruwelijke Christenvervolgingen, die uiteindelijk tot staan werden gebracht door de Brit Constantijn, de erfgenaam en wettelijke vertegenwoordiger van de Christelijke dynastie in Brittanië en latere keizer van het Romeinse Rijk.

Shakespeare’s Cymbeline and the Mystical Particular: Redemption, Then and Now, for a Disassembled World Judy Schavrien Sophia University Palo Alto, CA, USA Cymbeline reflected Shakespeare’s late-in-life aspirations for a world redeemed. Those in baroque England, past the first burgeoning of Renaissance vision, were nevertheless making a literal New World abroad. Likewise, Shakespeare arrived at a vision both post-innocent and post-tragic. As they compared to tragic heroes, he down-sized the late play characters; still, he granted them a gentler end.

  • Download Learning from the Ancestors for FREE
    In almost every traditional culture throughout the world, including Europe until comparatively recent times, there have been ways of ‘honouring’ at least some of the dead, those who were regarded as key founders and ancestors. Learning from the Ancestors shows how such traditional ways of thinking – and doing – are of benefit in the modern Western world. Beatrice Walditchmostly explores the ancestors of England, although also shows how similar ideas and concepts are found elsewhere in Britain and beyond. She explains how ‘listening’ and learning from the ancestors should be done in a ritual manner, not necessarily in ways which would be appropriate in other situations. Learning from the Ancestors is the third book in the Living in a Magical World series. These books will challenge you to recognise the traditional magic still alive in modern society, and empower you with a variety of skills and insights.
