  • Decorations – When to Wear
    This note is one of a series placed in the Almanac for the guidance of livery masters, wardens, and their clerks, especially new ones, seeking advice on a particular topic. They are not prescriptive, and how individual companies choose to conduct their affairs is, of course, entirely up to them. Most are written by a past chairman of the Livery Committee, of whom you may read more at the foot of the Contact page. Decorations – when to wear Introduction Elsewhere in the Dinners & Protocol folder of this website is a link to the Royal British Legion advice on the wearing of medals. Debrett’s Correct Form also gives interesting guidance (p.303 of the 1999 edition). There is also a note about when to wear Livery Badges (of office) in this Almanac. But this note simply addresses the different issue of: When should the host (livery company) specify that the (usually) dinner is to be an occasion when guests are asked to wear “Decorations”. As in all else, the Clerk will be guided by their company’s precedent, and custom & practice. Guidance But a new clerk, of maybe a new company, may seek guidance, where no precedent is apparent. He/she has the option of Always, Never, or Sometimes. The first two have obvious attractions, but the third is probably the correct one. Those with decorations (esp significant ones e.g. Orders of the British Empire) may understandably welcome the opportunity to wear their gong, and formal livery dinners are one of the relatively rare occasions when they can properly do so.

  • Minting America: Coinage and the Contestation of American Identity, 1775-1800
    ABSTRACT MINTING AMERICA: COINAGE AND THE CONTESTATION OF AMERICAN IDENTITY, 1775-1800 by James Patrick Ambuske “Minting America” investigates the ideological and culture links between American identity and national coinage in the wake of the American Revolution. In the Confederation period and in the Early Republic, Americans contested the creation of a national mint to produce coins. The catastrophic failure of the paper money issued by the Continental Congress during the War for Independence inspired an ideological debate in which Americans considered the broader implications of a national coinage. More than a means to conduct commerce, many citizens of the new nation saw coins as tangible representations of sovereignty and as a mechanism to convey the principles of the Revolution to future generations. They contested the physical symbolism as well as the rhetorical iconology of these early national coins. Debating the stories that coinage told helped Americans in this period shape the contours of a national identity.

Articles Camp Followers, Nurses, Soldiers, and Spies: Women and the Modern Memory of the Revolutionary War By Heather K. Garrett Abstract: When asked of their memory of the American Revolution, most would reference George Washington or Paul Revere, but probably not Molly Pitcher, Lydia Darragh, or Deborah Sampson. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to demonstrate not only the lack of inclusivity of women in the memory of the Revolutionary War, but also why the women that did achieve recognition surpassed the rest. Women contributed to the war effort in multiple ways, including serving as cooks, laundresses, nurses, spies, and even as soldiers on the battlefields. Unfortunately, due to the large number of female participants, it would be impossible to include the narratives of all of the women involved in the war.
