A Thesis Submitted, to the Faculty of .Divinity of the University of Edinburgh in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Ph
THE T ii E I S Li 0 JAMES M A It T I 1, E A U A Thesis submitted, to the Faculty of .Divinity of the University of Edinburgh in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Ph. D. degree. Gerald Otho LloJulloh, II.A., S.T.B Hay, 1933, -1- This study is an exposition and evaluation of the Theism of James Liartineau, shewing also the manner in which Martineau influenced and was influenced by tiie various trends of thought in the nineteenth century. Special attention has been devoted to that phase of his theism which deals y/ith his doctrine of God. The task of presenting a clear picture of Martineau's viev,r has been rendered difficult at some points by his practice of criticizing opposing views without giving a systematic presentation of his own. In such cases it has been found necessary to deal directly with his treatment of the relation between his own position and that to which he is opposed. Although his exposition of these opposing views is not always accurate, no criticism has been attempted of these inaccuracies. It will be seen that such questions are not of major importance for the understanding of Llartineau's own position. In making citations in l^ootnotes the books have been indicated by the author's name, the initials of the title of the book to which reference is made, and the volume and page numbers. it'or example, a reference to Martineau's Study of fteligion. volume one, page thirteen, will appear thus: Martineau, SCii, I, 13. -
Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Stirling Online Research Repository Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century A Catalogue D. W. Bebbington Professor of History, University of Stirling The catalogue that follows contains biographical data on the Unitarians who sat in the House of Commons during the nineteenth century. The main list, which includes ninety-seven MPs, is the body of evidence on which the paper on „Unitarian Members of Parliament in the Nineteenth Century‟ is based. The paper discusses the difficulty of identifying who should be treated as a Unitarian, the criterion chosen being that the individual appears to have been a practising adherent of the denomination at the time of his service in parliament. A supplementary list of supposed Unitarian MPs, which follows the main list, includes those who have sometimes been identified as Unitarians but who by this criterion were not and some who may have been affiliated to the denomination but who were probably not. The borderline is less sharp than might be wished, and, when further research has been done, a few in each list may need to be transferred to the other. Each entry contains information in roughly the same order. After the name appear the dates of birth and death and the period as an MP. Then a paragraph contains general biographical details drawn from the sources indicated at the end of the entry. A further paragraph discusses religious affiliation and activities. Unattributed quotations with dates are from Dod’s Parliamentary Companion, as presented in Who’s Who of British Members of Parliament. -

Estlin Carpenter, 1879. Thesis for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy July 2011 ABSTRACT This thesis consists of four thematic chapters showing Mary Carpenter (1808-1877) as an example of a Unitarian educational reformer who carved for herself a respectable public life at a time when the emphasis was on separate spheres for women. Mary's significance has recently become more widely broadcast, although her place as a leading pedagogue in educational history still needs to be asserted. -

Philip Carpenter and the Convergence of Science and Entertainment in the Early-Nineteenth Century Instrument Trade
Science Museum Group Journal Philip Carpenter and the convergence of science and entertainment in the early-nineteenth century instrument trade Journal ISSN number: 2054-5770 This article was written by Phillip Roberts 04-04-2017 Cite as 10.15180; 170707 Research Philip Carpenter and the convergence of science and entertainment in the early-nineteenth century instrument trade Published in Spring 2017, Sound and Vision Article DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15180/170707 Abstract This article will consider the alignment of scientific and media practice at the beginning of the nineteenth century. Over several decades after 1817 certain instrument makers began to specialise in the domestic entertainment market, transferring skills from optical instrument manufacture to the design of fashionable novelty devices. The instrument trade was expanding into a new middle-class market to exploit an increasing popular trade in optical novelties, exemplified by the 1817 Kaleidoscope craze and new interest among the middle classes for microscopes, telescopes, and magic lanterns. This paper will address this shift towards more popular uses of scientific instruments and optical toys. In particular it will address the involvement of the Birmingham and London optician Philip Carpenter in three popular media formats of the 1810s and 1820s — the 1817 patent Kaleidoscope, 1821 Improved Phantasmagoria Lantern and 1827 Microcosm. Component DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15180/170707/001 Keywords Kaleidoscope, magic lantern, solar microscope, Philip Carpenter, scientific instrument makers, nineteenth century, Carpenter & Westley, retail, exhibition, entertainment, optical instruments Introduction This article uses a detailed case study to explore how the interaction between science and entertainment can emerge through analysis of the cultural history of specific artisans and artefacts. -

A., M Ed., M. A. C.E., J.P. A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Arts, Centre for the Study of Literature and Theology University of Glasgow N, September, 1995 ABSTRACT This dissertation examines in detail the work of Elizabeth Gaskell, a mid- Victorian English author. It establishes that she was significantly influenced in her writing by the Unitarian social milieu to which she belonged during her lifetime, and by a wide range of other dominant influences, such as Romanticism and the rise of Darwinism.
