INDEX OF PERSON NAMES 44 Foreword The Clay collection centres around the papers of Charles Travis Clay (1885 – 1978). It includes his extensive personal and professional correspondence, with materials relating to his military service during the First World War, his employment with Lord Crewe in the Colonial Office and India Office from 1908, and his career as Librarian to the House of Lords from 1922. The collection also contains notes and correspondence relating to his publications on British regional history, with a particular focus on Yorkshire, and long-term contribution to the Yorkshire Archaeological Society and Yorkshire Archaeological Journal, as well as other publications such as those for the Roxburghe Club. In addition, Charles undertook fastidious research into his own family genealogy, gathering information and source evidence from archives and various international experts. Materials relating to several other family members are included in the collection: Dr Henry Pilleau, Joseph Travis Clay, John William Clay, Alice Clay and Edith Clay. There are also limited materials on the family home, Rastrick House, and the Clay family mill business. The second part of the collection relates to Violet Clay’s ancestral family, namely the Robson family. This comprises correspondence between the three Robson sisters – Kathleen (m. Cyril Gay), Violet (m. Charles Travis Clay) and Diana (m. John Robson) – and collected materials relating to William Snowdon Robson, who was twice elected as an MP, first for Bow and Bromley and subsequently for South Shields. He was appointed Attorney General in 1908. Both Harold Robson, son of William Snowdon Robson, and Rachel Maxwell- Hyslop, daughter of Charles Travis Clay, undertook research into William Snowdon Robson, and notes and sources pertaining to this research are included in the collection. First and foremost, this collection offers excellent insight into the biography and character of Charles Travis Clay. It paints a rich picture of Clay as a man who was both kind and thoughtful on a personal level, and extremely capable and energetic in his professional and research activities. He was generous with his time and expertise, regularly travelling to give lectures to local history societies such as the Bedfordshire Historical Society and the Bradford Historical and Antiquarian Society, as well as answering genealogical enquiries from professional researchers and amateurs with equal verve, often offering to send spare copies of works from his own collection to amateur researchers in North America. Within his family life, too, he appears to have been an engaging correspondent, with Violet writing ‘My darling Charlie, I can’t tell you how I enjoyed getting your letter – it is quite the most wonderful and nicest letter in the world, and only a person like you could have written it.’ The large collection of letters between Charles and Violet give an excellent insight into their developing relationship and the growth of their family. CTC’s extensive genealogical research regarding his own family pedigree through the Clay and Pilleau lines and in his correspondence with other genealogical researchers is an excellent starting point for research into the history of many different families. Whilst much of his pedigree work was published, his notes and correspondence demonstrate his methodology and reasoning, and include notes from source manuscript material discovered in various archives and in private family collections. Some of the families whose histories are touched upon by CTC’s work include: Clay, Pilleau, Pezé, Perigal, Franklin, Hill and Daval. Whilst Clay considered himself only an amateur historian (in spite of his nomination to become a Fellow of the British Academy), his research in connection with his publications as part of the Yorkshire Archaeological Society and Journal (YAS and YAJ) was exceptionally i thorough, and this is reflected in his notes and correspondence, for example on Paynel Fee and Lacy Kirkminsterbottom. Herein are numerous references to source materials held in both archives and private collections. The correspondence indicates that CTC had access to certain materials through acquaintances fostered through connections made at Balliol College, Oxford and during his time in Westminster. These references may provide invaluable evidence of less well known early British source material, as well as offering information on the provenance of numerous charter materials. There is also material relating to a biography of Bob Brandt, a close friend from Oxford, who was killed in action during the First World War. This was published for private circulation, and these papers are a moving account of Charles’ dedication to his fallen friend. Clay corresponded extensively with a great number of historians, including Christopher Brooke (University of Cambridge), John le Patourel (Professor of Mediaeval History, Leeds), Roger Mynors (Professor of Latin, Oxford/Cambridge), Dorothy Whitelock (Professor of Anglo-Saxon, Cambridge), and Christopher Cheyney (Professor of Mediaeval History, Cambridge). This correspondence preserves debates on various avenues of historical research between the foremost experts of their generation. More broadly, the collection offers fascinating insights into British socio-political history of the twentieth century. Correspondence with friends and colleagues from the Colonial Office posted overseas describes political life in India and Africa as well as the perception from overseas of the handling of colonial politics in Westminster. A. L. Kennedy’s letters, posted while working abroad with the intelligence service during the First World War, provide an equally fascinating view of French, Swedish and Romanian politics. In addition, the continuing correspondence with House of Lords friends such as Harry Verney offers a wonderful, if somewhat oblique, insider commentary on the changing face of politics over two world wars and into the post-war years, with discussion, for instance, of the 1922 general election and the merits of a Labour government in 1945. Edith Clay’s photos and diaries of travels between 1911 – 1933 offer an additional perspective on Europe between the wars, though sadly the diary from her 1933 travels in Germany, corresponding to a photo album from the same trip, have been cut out at some point. Finally, the collection traces the trends, developments and difficulties within the world of historical research and publication throughout the twentieth century. Clay’s correspondence records the anticipated resistance to the election of a female member, archaeologist Mrs Esdaile, to the Society of Antiquaries in the 1930s, increasing difficulties in funding the publication of the Complete Peerage, and trouble managing the changing preferences for styles of editorship for the Complete Peerage. Moreover, it records several sales and acquisitions of manuscripts and books, for example the YAS acquisition of the Bacon-Frank manuscripts. Further to this, there are some surprising topics covered by the collection, such as discussion of the impact of the changing political mood on plantation life in Kingston, Jamaica, during the nineteenth century, revealed in the letters of George Atkinson. * ii Note on arrangement Listing All files or groups of records have been assessed in overview and are listed within the inventory according to their approximate contents. However, items have not been listed at an individual level in every case. For example, not every letter has been individually listed, nor has every individual pedigree sketch been listed. As a result, the inventory does not cover every topic and personal name mentioned within the body of these papers. It has not been possible to identify every person within the photographic materials. Errors in the transcription of names cannot be excluded. Where information has been added for clarity, it is included in square brackets. Where the reading of a source is unclear, information is included in square

Excessive drunkenness, not alcoholism per se, was the primary concern of the two parliamentary parties. When Lloyd George entered Parliament the two major parties were the Liberals and the Conservatives. Temperance was neither a problem that Parliament sought to~;;lv~~ nor the single issue of Lloyd George's public career. Rather, temperance remained within a flux of political squabbling between the two parties and even among the respective blocs within each Party. Inevitably, compromises had to be made between the dissenting factions. The major temperance controversy in Parliament was the issue of compensation. Both Parties agreed that the problem of excessive drunkenness was rooted in the excessive number of public houses throughout Britain.

  • European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960
    INTERSECTING CULTURES European Influences in the Fine Arts: Melbourne 1940-1960 Sheridan Palmer Bull Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree ofDoctor ofPhilosophy December 2004 School of Art History, Cinema, Classics and Archaeology and The Australian Centre The University ofMelbourne Produced on acid-free paper. Abstract The development of modern European scholarship and art, more marked.in Austria and Germany, had produced by the early part of the twentieth century challenging innovations in art and the principles of art historical scholarship. Art history, in its quest to explicate the connections between art and mind, time and place, became a discipline that combined or connected various fields of enquiry to other historical moments. Hitler's accession to power in 1933 resulted in a major diaspora of Europeans, mostly German Jews, and one of the most critical dispersions of intellectuals ever recorded. Their relocation to many western countries, including Australia, resulted in major intellectual and cultural developments within those societies. By investigating selected case studies, this research illuminates the important contributions made by these individuals to the academic and cultural studies in Melbourne. Dr Ursula Hoff, a German art scholar, exiled from Hamburg, arrived in Melbourne via London in December 1939. After a brief period as a secretary at the Women's College at the University of Melbourne, she became the first qualified art historian to work within an Australian state gallery as well as one of the foundation lecturers at the School of Fine Arts at the University of Melbourne. While her legacy at the National Gallery of Victoria rests mostly on an internationally recognised Department of Prints and Drawings, her concern and dedication extended to the Gallery as a whole.

Figure 1: Bill Lee and Arthur Blackburn, Circulation Department Manual Attendants, possibly late 1950s, MA/15/37, No. V143, V&A Archive, © Victoria and Albert Museum, London. Joanna Weddell University of Brighton with the Victoria and Albert Museum AHRC Part-time Collaborative Doctoral Award AH/I021450/1 3 BLANK 4 Thesis Abstract This thesis establishes the post-war regional impact of the Victoria and Albert Museum’s Circulation Department (Circ) which sent touring exhibitions to museums and art schools around the UK in the period 1947-1977, an area previously unexplored to any substantial depth. A simplistic stereotypical dyad of metropolitan authority and provincial deference is examined and evidence given for a more complex flow between Museum and regions. The Introduction outlines the thesis aims and the Department’s role in the dissemination of art and design. The thesis is structured around questions examining the historical significance of Circ, the display and installation of Circ’s regional exhibitions, and the flow of influence between regions and museum. Context establishes Circ not as a straightforward continuation of Cole’s Victorian mission but as historically embedded in the post-war period.

  • For the Past 50 Years, Labour and Conservative
    "For the past 50 years, Labour and Conservative Governments have shared a common agenda - stopping Home Rulers and Scottish Nationalists from breaking up Britain and making Scotland independent. This programme will show you how both parties have resorted to spying and underhand tactics to discredit the SNP, its members and supporters. We will show you how official documents which supported independence were kept hidden. Politicians and civil servants tried to obstruct independence and keep the country united." This document is a transcript, with some screen captures for illustrative purposes, of the Gaelic television programme 'DIOMHAIR' which was produced by the independent company - Caledonia TV. The transcription was carried out by a team of volunteers who regard the programme's content, which relies heavily on information released under FOI rules, as being of considerable educational value. Especially for those with a new or renewed interest in Scottish politics and its recent history. While most of the inevitable differences in text production (font type and size, spacings used etc.) stemming from individual preferences of team members have been homogenised by post editing, there is still noticeable variation in the layout, size, quality and frequency of the screen captures used to illustrate the text. If your interest is sparked by the contents of this document, we advise that you may obtain the original DVD for a more complete experience. It is available from: Caledonia TV, 147 Bath Street, Glasgow, for £10 plus p&p Some Explanatory Notes When Derek Mackay, the programme presenter, speaks, his words are in regular text and are not contained within quotation marks.

UNIVERSITY MICROFILMS Sir, in Cambria are we born, and gentlemen: Further to boast were neither true nor modest, Unless I add we are honest. Belarius in Cymbeline. Act V, sc. v. PREFACE In 1927 Lloyd George became the recognized leader of the Liberal party with the stated aim of making it over into a viable third party. Time and again he averred that the Liberal mission was to hold the balance— as had Parnell's Irish Nationalists— between the two major parties in Parlia­ ment. Thus viewed in these terms the Liberal revival of the late 1920's must be accounted a success for at no time did the Liberals expect to supplant the Labour party as the party of the left. The subtitle reads: "A Study in Political Communi­ cation " because communications theory provided the starting point for this study. But communications theory is not im­ posed in any arbitrary fashion, for Lloyd George and his fol­ lowers were obsessed with exploiting modern methods of commu­ nications.

  • ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012
    ANGLO-CATHOLIC HISTORY SOCIETY Newsletter—December 2012 EDITORIAL At time when a new Archbishop of Canterbury has just been appointed it is appropriate that one of our members should publish a biographical study of one of his predecessors, Cosmo Gordon Lang who held the office from 1928 – 1942. Members will recall that the author, Father Robert Beaken, lectured to the Society in February 2008. His talk was entitled, “Their Proper Place. Archbishop Lang and Anglo-Catholicism”. The book itself has already been favourably reviewed in the Daily Telegraph by Christopher Howse who reports “I am immensely enthusiastic about Robert Beaken’s Cosmo Gordon Lang…it establishes a vivid and convincing picture of the man at the helm of the Church of England…” A review by our chairman is printed below and I have negotiated a special reduced rate for purchase of the book directly from the publishers – see the enclosed flier and order form. HENRY FYNES-CLINTON Another of our members, Father John Salter, has also published an important book at the present time. It comes in the form of the Society’s latest Occasional Paper and is a personal memoir of a leading Anglican Papalist, Father Henry Fynes-Clinton. Copies are available to members from the Secretary at £18 including postage. It is the first study to be published about Fr Fynes, a significant figure in Anglo-Catholicism of the first half of the Twentieth Century. The front of this Newsletter reproduces a snapshot taken of Father Fynes in old age which appears on the cover of the book in colour.

The first chapter investigates the general administration of the county, including its financial structure, and the officials and men recruited by Edward to control his Cheshire estates. This chapter shows that Edward, in spite of his father’s influence, led an independent policy by relying primarily on the justiciar and on local tenants to govern the county. The second chapter tackles the organisation of justice and the law administered in Cheshire.
