  • Drink and the Victorians

    Drink and the Victorians

    DRINK AND THE VICTORIANS A HISTORY OF THE BRITISH TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT PAGING NOTE: Pamphlets, journals, and periodicals are paged using the number of the item on the list below, and the call number 71-03051. Books are cataloged individually – get author/title info below, and search SearchWorks for online record and call number. BIBLIOGRAPHICAL NOTE This collection has been formed by the amalgamation of two smaller but important collections. The larger part, probably about three-quarters of the whole, was formed by William Hoyle of Claremont, Bury, near Manchester. The other part was formerly in the Joseph Livesey Library, Sheffield, and many of the pamphlets carry that library stamp. The catalogue has three main elements: pamphlets and tracts; books, including a section of contemporary biography; and newspapers, journals and conference reports. There are around 1400 separately published pamphlets and tracts but a series of tracts, or part of a series, has usually been catalogued as one item. The Hoyle collection of pamphlets, is bound in 24 volumes, mostly half black roan, many with his ownership stamp. All the pieces from the Joseph Livesey Library are disbound; so that any item described as "disbound" may be assumed to be from the Livesey collection and all the others, for which a volume and item number are given, from Hoyle's bound collection. INTRODUCTION By Brian Harrison Fellow and Tutor in Modern History and Politics, Corpus Christi College, Oxford. Anyone keen to understand the Victorians can hardly do better than devour Joseph Livesey's Staunch Teetotaler (458) or J.G. Shaw's Life of William Gregson.

    THE UNIVERSITY of MISSISSIPPI One Hundred Sixty-Eighth COMMENCEMENT Saturday, the First of May 2021 THE UNIVERSITY of MISSISSIPPI TM One Hundred Sixty-Eighth COMMENCEMENT Saturday, the First of May 2021 Office of the Chancellor On behalf of the faculty and staff of the University of Mississippi, we extend a sincere welcome to the students, parents, families and friends gathered to celebrate the university’s 168th Commencement. We are pleased to recognize the spirit of our community and honor the academic accomplishments and dedication of our beloved candidates for graduation of the Class of 2021. Commencement is a time-honored tradition that recognizes the outstanding work and achievements of students and faculty. It is an exciting time for us, and we know this is a special occasion for all of you. Our students are the heart and soul of Ole Miss, and we take pride and inspiration in their accomplishments and growth. Today’s ceremony celebrates years of study, hard work and careful preparation, and we’re grateful that you have come to show your support, love and belief in these graduates. The members of the Class of 2021 accomplished so much during their time as Ole Miss students — they pursued their passions, maximized their potential and pushed their boundaries through outstanding learning opportunities and life-changing experiences. In addition, they endured the disruption caused by the pandemic, which has taught us all important life lessons about resilience and the need to be adaptable. Now, we can’t wait to see how they’ll build and grow personal legacies of achievement, service and leadership.

    IIAULLAULL MANNINAGHMANNINAGH JJIUIU KMANX MUSIC TODAY ebruary f2009 the Festival season’s approaching! With Easter in sight, Manx Music and Dance groups are getting themselves in shape for upcoming festivals. Two of the main festivals that are looming are Cwlwm Celtaidd, the Celtic Festival of Wales, which takes place in Porthcawl (26-29 March) and Shennaghys Jiu Celtic Youth Festival based in Ramsey (3-6 April). Both festivals will feature top Manx acts alongside established and rising stars of the Celtic world. Cwlwm Celtaidd is fast establishing itself as one of the friendliest festivals committed to providing the total Celtic experience. Perree Bane and the Mollag Band are now regular performers at the festival, with newcomers The Reeling Stones appearing alongside fellow Manxies on the bill. Festival organisers hope that this, the 8th year of the festival, will be one of the best. All in all, the festival, situated on the seafront in South Wales’ beautiful Heritage Coast, promises to be a great family weekend. To book tickets and check out accommodation, see www.cwlwmceltaidd.com or phone the Festival Offi ce 01656 766667. A little closer to home, Shennaghys Jiu’s focus is on providing a non- competitive environment for young performers from the Island, with guest musicians from other Celtic countries. The festival’s ethos means that a wealth of young talent from the Island’s schools are given the opportunity to perform alongside more established musicians and dancers. Visiting groups are an important part of this process. This year, an uillean piper and guitarist from County Mayo have been promised - more news as it happens on the SJ website: www.shennaghys.org ~ SESSIONS ~ THURS 9pm Singing session at The Brit, Ramsey FRI 8pm Tynwald Inn, St.
