    Club, Community and Coal: A Case Study of Dunfermline Athletic Football Club in the 1980s James Canavan MA Sports History and Culture De Montfort University August, 2015 Acknowledgements Over the past year I have been overwhelmed by the support and guidance by many people associated with Dunfermline Athletic Football Club. From an initial, exploratory post on fans’ forum dafc.net in late July, 2014, I was immediately contacted by Donald Adamson and Jason Barber, who offered to help. Through Jason I was able to interview Jim Leishman and Ian Westwater, and Donald provided me with a high level of information about the club, in addition to the links with coal mining. I cannot thank Donald and Jason enough for their assistance. The following people have also provided help and information along the way: Gordon Baird, Alan Bairner, Kenny Cowan, Joe Graham, Jim Leishman, Duncan Simpson, John Simpson, and Ian Westwater. Every single person is a credit to themselves and to Dunfermline Athletic Football Club for giving up their free time to help me with this dissertation. I would also like to apologise to the staff at the temporary library at St Margaret’s House for my inability to work the microfiche readers, and to thank them for their help. At DMU, Matt Taylor has been very helpful in terms of the structure of the dissertation, and Neil Carter provided initial guidance. Lastly, I would like to thank my Father, Frank Canavan, for being a constant inspiration to complete this project. Since his death in 2009, I have visited Dunfermline every year, taking in a Pars match as a personal tribute.

The categories are designated as(1) Type of Literature, (2) Analysis of Literature,(3) Bibliographical Data and Social Background,(4) The Art of Literature,(5) Critical Judgments, (6) The Poet and Tradition,(7) Quantitative Studies, and (8) Miscellaneous. Most of the journal articles cited deal with better-known English language prose writers, poets, and novelists, although some European authors are mentioned.

  • Balzac's Historical Reliability
    BALZAC'S HISTORICAL RELIABILITY by ROBERT BEUM THE re vi val of interest in Balzac among the English-reading public in the late 1960' s and in the 1970's - attested to, for example, by the success of new translations by Donald Adamson, Marion Craw­ ford, Herberc J. Hunt, Rayner Heppenstall, and others - has raised once again the question of how reliable Balzac is as a student of historical manners. Though Bal zac has never been considered a mere historical impressionist doubts have sometimes been ex­ pressed about the authenticity of some of his portraiture. Usually it is for 'exaggeration' that Balzac is faulted. It may be significant that the form this exaggeration takes is almost never specified or otherwise made intelligible, the result being that the charge cre­ ates the impression of calumny where constructive correction would be more useful. 'Seeing little that was good in this social order [the bourgeoi s monarchy of Loui s Philippe), Bal zac, in his Cousin Betle, Droll Stories, and Eugenie Grandet, has given us a stimulating but exaggerated picture of bourgeois society' (F.e. Palm and F .E. Graham, Europe Since Napoleon, New York, 1934, p.63). In historical and in literary criticism, as in the litigations of life, the law ultimately demands a specified charge. In this par­ ticul ar case, as in some others, it does nothing for the qedibility of the prosecution when one discovers it in an egregious error in the very framing of the charge: the sprightly, good-natured, erotic Droll Stories are set in an era prior to the vast dominance of the bourgeoisie; they make light of the clergy and of lovers' foibles, but not of the merchants and bankers, from whose lambasting Bal­ zac affords himself a merry vacation.
