  • Notes on the Bacon-Shakespeare Question
    NOTES ON THE BACON-SHAKESPEARE QUESTION BY CHARLES ALLEN BOSTON AND NEW YORK HOUGHTON, MIFFLIN AND COMPANY ftiucrsi&c press, 1900 COPYRIGHT, 1900, BY CHARLES ALLEN ALL RIGHTS RESERVED GIFT PREFACE AN attempt is here made to throw some new light, at least for those who are Dot already Shakespearian scholars, upon the still vexed ques- tion of the authorship of the plays and poems which bear Shakespeare's name. In the first place, it has seemed to me that the Baconian ar- gument from the legal knowledge shown in the plays is of slight weight, but that heretofore it has not been adequately met. Accordingly I have en- deavored with some elaboration to make it plain that this legal knowledge was not extraordinary, or such as to imply that the author was educated as a lawyer, or even as a lawyer's clerk. In ad- dition to dealing with this rather technical phase of the general subject, I have sought from the plays themselves and from other sources to bring together materials which have a bearing upon the question of authorship, and some of which, though familiar enough of themselves, have not been sufficiently considered in this special aspect. The writer of the plays showed an intimate M758108 iv PREFACE familiarity with many things which it is believed would have been known to Shakespeare but not to Bacon and I have to collect the most '; soughtO important of these, to exhibit them in some de- tail, and to arrange them in order, so that their weight may be easily understood and appreci- ated.

  • B2086 Benenden Road and Cranbrook Road, (Tilsden Lane to Binan Cottage)
    Road Maintenance in Your Area Road Surface Improvement B2086 Benenden Road and Cranbrook Road, (Tilsden Lane to Binan Cottage) Cranbrook, Tunbridge Wells When we plan to carry out the work and how long it will take This is to let you know that, as part of the on-going maintenance and improvement of the highway network, Kent County Council will be working to improve the road surface of Chequers Road, Goudhurst between the junctions of A262 Cranbrook Road and North Road. These surface treatment works will start on Wednesday 10th May and should take 2 days to complete, with working hours between 7am and 7pm. This type of work can be affected by bad weather, so if it is not possible for us to carry it out at this time, we will arrange a new date and let you know via a letter drop to your home. We will also put up signs along the road before we start showing the date we plan to start work. During these essential works it will be necessary to close the road completely so that we can carry out the works safely for both the workforce and road users. The diversion route will be via Benenden Road, Swattenden Lane, A229 Hartley Road, Angley Road, Willesley Pound roundabout, A262 Sissinghurst Road, The Street, Chapel Lane, Golford Road, New Pond Road, and B2086 Cranbrook Road (And vice versa) What we plan to do We are going to use a product called ‘Micro-Asphalt’ to improve the road surface. Micro-Asphalt is quick to apply, which means less disruption to road users, residents, local businesses and the emergency services.

  • Schuler Dissertation Final Document
    COUNSEL, POLITICAL RHETORIC, AND THE CHRONICLE HISTORY PLAY: REPRESENTING COUNCILIAR RULE, 1588-1603 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Anne-Marie E. Schuler, B.M., M.A. Graduate Program in English The Ohio State University 2011 Dissertation Committee: Professor Richard Dutton, Advisor Professor Luke Wilson Professor Alan B. Farmer Professor Jennifer Higginbotham Copyright by Anne-Marie E. Schuler 2011 ABSTRACT This dissertation advances an account of how the genre of the chronicle history play enacts conciliar rule, by reflecting Renaissance models of counsel that predominated in Tudor political theory. As the texts of Renaissance political theorists and pamphleteers demonstrate, writers did not believe that kings and queens ruled by themselves, but that counsel was required to ensure that the monarch ruled virtuously and kept ties to the actual conditions of the people. Yet, within these writings, counsel was not a singular concept, and the work of historians such as John Guy, Patrick Collinson, and Ann McLaren shows that “counsel” referred to numerous paradigms and traditions. These theories of counsel were influenced by a variety of intellectual movements including humanist-classical formulations of monarchy, constitutionalism, and constructions of a “mixed monarchy” or a corporate body politic. Because the rhetoric of counsel was embedded in the language that men and women used to discuss politics, I argue that the plays perform a kind of cultural work, usually reserved for literature, that reflects, heightens, and critiques political life and the issues surrounding conceptions of conciliar rule.

  • Benenden Walk 10.7 Miles (17.2Kms) Allow 5.5 Hours
    Benenden Walk 10.7 miles (17.2kms) allow 5.5 hours ime h T ug ro T lk a W A Benenden Walk distance 10.7 miles (17.2kms) allow 5.5 hours This 10-mile circular walk around the village of Benenden shows the western part of Kent at its best. The route follows the established High Weald Landscape Trail through small fields, orchards and woodland. There are superb views over the Weald from St George’s Church, Benenden, and the footpath leading back to Cranbrook. The full route takes in the parkland that makes up the grounds of Benenden School, and the ancient culvert at Strawberry Wood, crossing the Roman Road below Stream Farm and the site of an original Roman ford, capturing the historic features and rural character of Kent’s High Weald perfectly. A History of Benenden South of Cranbrook is the picturesque village of Benenden, which prospered from the 14th century as an important centre of the Wealden iron and cloth industries. Before that, the name indicates that it was one of the dens, or woodland clearings, common in this area of the Weald, where Saxon farmers drove their domestic pig herds from the north and south downs every autumn to feed on the fallen acorns, chestnuts and beechnuts that littered the forest floor - a practice that was known as pannage. The trackways they established from driving their animals to the forest and back again all ran north-south and developed into the roads in use today. The clearings were originally owned by parishes settled earlier in the open lands of the north and south, who wanted to use the forest resources.

  • Shakespeare As a Lawyer
    SHAKESPEARE AS A LAWYER BY FRANKLIN FISKE HEARD V <';. •t BOSTON LITTLE, BROWN, AND COMPANY 1883 : Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 1883, By Franklin Fiske Heard, In the Office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. CamfmBge PRINTED BY JOHN WILSON AND SON, UNIVERSITY PRESS. I am a wise fellow, and one that knows the law. Much Ado About Nothing. Act iv. sc. a. I was once at Clements-inn. Second Part of King Henry IV. Act iii. sc. 2. Faith, I have been a truant in the law, And never yet could frame my will to it. First Part of King Henry VI. Act ii. sc. 4. But in these nice sharp quillets of the law, Good faith, I am no wiser than a daw. First Part of King Henry VI. Act ii. sc. 4. Thou art clerkly, thou art clerkly. The Merry Wives of Windsor. Act iv. sc. 5. PREFACE. AM aware that the attempt made in this I volume has been anticipated by others. The notes of critics and commentators upon Shakespeare, superfluously full in certain particulars, are singularly meagre in point- ing out and explaining his references to the technical science of the Law. And yet the room for such reference is abundant. In selecting the passages and the illustra- tions and criticisms thereon, which will be found in the following pages, constant use has been made of the various editions of Shakespeare. I have not relied upon my own complete perusal of his Works. From Preface. the wealth of material I have made a copi- ous selection.
