Brown The yean from 1798 to 1812 record an exciting political story in the United States that finally culminated in the war of 1812. Professor Brown describes the party situation and the views of the individual congressmen and shows that they sensed danger to our republican form of government. This fear rather than economic motives was, according to the author, what brought the Republican Congressional majority to the point of declaring war in the 1811-12 session. $7.50 TWENTIETH CENTURY CHINA By O. Edmund Clubb The last U.S. Consul General in Peiping, O. Edmund Clubb, reviews briefly the history of dynastic China and then gives accounts of the turbulence at the turn of the century, the fall Of the Manchu dynasty, and the revolution in 1911. He then details the fractious period of the warlords, the Nationalist regime of Chiang Kai-shek, the defeat of the Nationalist government and the contemporary period of Communist rule. *'.95 THE REGISTER OF EUDES OF ROUEN Translated by Sydney M. Brown and edited by Jeremiah F. (TSullftan This translation brings together the recorded observations made by Eudes Rigaud, arch- bishop of Rouen, on his canonical visitations to the religious communities within his own diocese and those of his suffragans in the thirteenth century. The result is a handbook of canon law as well as a sourcebook containing information on practically every phase of life in medieval Normandy. S7J0 THE ECONOMIC HISTORY OF MODERN ITALY By Shepherd B. Clough In his new book. Professor Clough discusses, in detail, the economic development of Italy from its unification to the present, clearly indicating the importance of social and political factors in his analysis. He offers many conclusions that are pertinent to the economic develop- ment of the so-called underdeveloped countries of today. $10.00 CRUSADERS AS CONQUERORS: The Chronicle of Morea Translated from the Greek by Harold E. Lurier The first English version of this Greek chronicle, one from a group of eight accounts recording the history of the principality of Morea, is here presented by Dr Lurier. As a historical narrative, the chronicle has many faults. Parts of it are completely false, others hopelessly confused. But as a social document it is exceptional, vividly portraying the feudal society of thirteenth-century Greece. $7.50 COMINTERN AND WORLD REVOLUTION, 1928-1943: The Shaping of Doctrine By Kermit E. McKenzie The author analyzes the evolution of the Communist doctrine of world revolution during the fifteen years that Stalin dominated the Communist International (Comintern). Based on iibUshed records of the Comintern, this book seeks to determine those ideas which, taken r, constitute a Communist theory of world revolution. $6SO 2960 Broadway, New York, N.Y. 10027 (iii) Downloaded from https://www.cambridge.org/core.

  • English Translations of Willem Van Haren's Political Poetry During the War of T
    Journal for Eighteenth-Century Studies Vol. •• No. •• (2015) doi: 10 .1111 /1754 -0208.12338 Poetry as an Act of International Diplomacy: English translations of Willem van Haren’s Political Poetry during the War of the Austrian Succession LOTTE JENSEN and MARGUERITE CORPORAAL Abstract: In the eighteenth century the worlds of diplomacy and poetry were inextrica- bly connected. This is demonstrated by the work of the Dutch statesman and poet Willem van Haren (1710 -1768), whose political poems played an important role in the negotia- tions of international political relations during the War of the Austrian Succession. Several poems were translated into English by the Irish poet Samuel Boyse and published in The Gentleman’s Magazine. It is argued that the great interest in Van Haren’s work in England can be clarified by the country’s positioning in the European conflict, and by Anglo-Irish relations during the 1740 s. Keywords: Willem van Haren, Dutch Republic, Samuel Boyse, War of the Austrian Succession, Lord Carteret, Ireland, Voltaire Nowadays literary works by Dutch authors are seldom translated into English. Quite the reverse: the Dutch literary landscape is heavily influenced by British traditions in writing, as best-sellers and more obscure English texts alike become available in Dutch translation. According to Theo Hermans, specialist in the field of Anglo-Dutch translation studies, this strong impact of the English world of letters on the Dutch literary market dates back to the early eighteenth century. Pointing to the significant role

    Land Mark Architecture - in an age of non-discovery RICHARD GLOVER MFA 2007 THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW SOUTH WALES Thesis/Dissertation Sheet Surname: GLOVER First name: RICHARD Other name: JOHN Abbreviation for degree as given in the University calendar: MFA School: SCHOOL OF MEDIA ARTS Faculty: COLLEGE OF FINE ARTS Title: Land Mark Architecture – in an age of non-discovery The aim of this MFA Research Documentation is to present the ideas behind the photographs produced during the MFA Degree. In Chapter 2 I will briefly analyse photographers who have influenced or provided structure for my practice. In Chapter 3 I will detail my earliest work and follow with an analysis of the recent projects completed within the research time frame for this MFA Degree. These recent projects have been summarised under the following headings: Transition, which explores the different stages in the architectural construction and deconstruction process in particular sites that would generally be considered unpresentable - sites that are in either a state of decay or dereliction or a state of re-building; Frontier, which looks at new housing developments in outer Sydney suburbs and examines the influence of social imperatives and relevance at a time when aspects of environmental concern are at the forefront of social commentary; and Monolith, examines the remnant modernist vision of high-rise residential architecture, in Sydney and London. Land Mark Architecture – in an age of non-discovery is the urban landscape of landmarks and marks on the land. They should be viewed in the context of documentary photography. I have ignored the buildings that are deemed landmarks, and by following a less obvious path, have explored local, unclassified, and aesthetically uncertain areas of the built environment.

WOOD* Republicanism was the ideology of the American Revolution, and as such it became the source of much of what we Americans still believe, the source of many of our noblest ideals and most persistent values. In- deed, republicanism is today so much taken for granted that it is difficult for us to appreciate its once revolutionary character. We live in a world in which almost all states purport to be republican; even those few states such as Britain or Sweden that remain monarchies are more republican in fact than some others that claim to be in theory. But in the eighteenth century most governments were monarchies, and republicanism was their enemy.

  • Craig Gothic Bard
    ‗OUR GOTHIC BARD‘: SHAKESPEARE AND APPROPRIATION 1764-1800 Steven Craig Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the award of Doctor of Philosophy English Studies University of Stirling January 2011 ii ABSTRACT In recent years, Gothic literary studies have increasingly acknowledged the role played by Shakespeare in authorial acts of appropriation. Such acknowledgement is most prominently stated in Gothic Shakespeares (eds. Drakakis and Townshend, 2008) and Shakespearean Gothic (eds. Desmet and Williams, 2009), both of which base their analyses of the Shakespeare-Gothic intersection on the premise that Shakespearean quotations, characters and events are valuable objects in their own right which mediate on behalf of the ‗present‘ concerns of the agents of textual appropriation. In light of this scholarship, this thesis argues the case for the presence of ‗Gothic Shakespeare‘ in Gothic writing during the latter half of the eighteenth century and, in doing so, it acknowledges the conceptual gap whereby literary borrowings were often denounced as acts of plagiarism. Despite this conceptual problem, it is possible to trace distinct ‗Gothic‘ Shakespeares that dismantle the concept of Shakespeare as a singular ineffable genius by virtue of a textual practice that challenges the concept of the ‗genius‘ Shakespeare as the figurehead of genuine emotion and textual authenticity. This thesis begins by acknowledging the eighteenth-century provenance of Shakespeare‘s ‗Genius‘, thereby distinguishing between the malevolent barbarian Gothic of Shakespeare‘s own time and the eighteenth-century Gothic Shakespeares discussed under the term ‗appropriation‘ . It proceeds to examine the Shakespeares of canonical Gothic writers (Horace Walpole, Ann Radcliffe and Matthew Lewis) as well as their lesser-known contemporaries (T.J.
