However a comprehensive bibliography has not previously been attempted. Very few bibliographies are ever definitive, and I make no such claim for this first attempt. Specifically excluded are newspaper references, unpublished typescripts, prints, plans, Lundy Field Society Reports, and much of the marginal material which mentions Lundy in passing. The bibliography concentrates on books, reports, periodical articles, conference papers and academic theses, which are devoted solely or in reasonable measure, as far as I can tell, to the island. Some parts of the bibliography are less full than others, either through design (in particular the oldest historical references, which may be left to others); or the difficulty of tracing more references e.g. ornithology/philately. A few citations are not as accurate as I would wish; to ensure this would take immense effort. Likewise I have not provided abstracts for entries: this would be a full-time task. So the reader must allow for the odd rough edge. The Lundy Bibliography has been compiled for its intrinsic value to island devotees. Those who wish to conduct further bibliographic research should be aware of the large collection of primary material in the Langham collection. This is housed in the West Country Sudies Library, (WSL) Exeter, and is available for public consultation by appointment. lt comprises 58 boxes, many of which contain unpublished typescripts, manuscripts and ephemera, as well as rare cuttings and articles. Another significant resource is the membership and expertise contained within the Lundy Fi eld Society. This bibliography would not have been possible without assistance, and I am indebted in particular to lan Maxted, the doyen of the West Country Studies Library in Exeter. My colleagues at Bath University have likewise assisted, with a special mention to those in inter-library loans. I would be grateful for any corrections or additions to this edition.

  • Robinson Crusoe
    READING GROUP GUIDE ROBINSON CRUSOE BY DANIEL DEFOE Restless Classics presents the Three-Hundredth Anniversary Edition of Robinson Crusoe, the classic Caribbean adventure story and foundatio- nal English novel, with new illustrations by Eko and an introduction by Jamaica Kincaid that recontextualizes the book for our globalized, post- colonial era. Three centuries after Daniel Defoe published Robinson Crusoe, this gripping tale of a castaway who spends thirty years on a remote tropical island near Trinidad, encountering cannibals, captives, and mutineers before being ultimately rescued, remains a classic of the adventure genre and is widely considered the first great English novel. But the book also has much to teach us, in retrospect, about entrenched attitudes of coloni- zers toward the colonized that still resound today. As celebrated Caribbean writer Jamaica Kincaid writes in her bold new introduction, “The vivid, vibrant, subtle, important role of the tale of Robinson Crusoe, with his triumph of individual resilience and ingenuity wrapped up in his European, which is to say white, identity, has played in the long, unin- BUY FROM RESTLESS terrupted literature of European conquest of the rest of the world must not be dismissed or Paperback List Price: $19.99 ignored or silenced.” ISBN: 9781632061195 Publication: 8/27/19 Daniel Defoe (c. 1660 - 1731) was an English writer, journalist, and spy, who gained 5.5” x 8.25” • 384 pages enduring fame for his novel Robinson Crusoe.

  • Treasure Island
    School Radio Treasure Island 3. Long John Silver and the Hispaniola Narrator: Three weeks after Jim Hawkins escapes the pirate gang with Billy Bones’ treasure map, he arrives in Bristol on a hot Sunday morning. What a city. The gateway to the Oceans of the World. Tea, sugar, cotton, coffee, slaves - aye, slaves - fill the streets and the docks. The great masts of a dozen fleets tower over the quays. Sailors, travellers, the rich and the poor throng the busy streets all of them hungry for money or food - or adventure. Jim has a note - he must find a Mr Silver who will show him to the Squire’s ship. Jim finds him all right down on the quayside - and there’s a shock, for as he comes up behind the man, he sees he has only one leg. Could this be the pirate, so feared by Billy Bones? Jim: Mister... Silver... sir? Long John Silver: Silver? Long John Silver you be intending to say, I’m sure, and who may you be? Narrator: Jim stares up. Tall and strong, with a face as big as a ham, intelligent and smiling, Long John Silver winks down at him. Jim relaxes - this man’s no pirate. Jim: Jim Hawkins, sir. Cabin boy to the new ship. Long John Silver: Is that so? Jim: Squire Trelawney’s ship. Sir. Long John Silver: Well, pleased I am to see you my boy. I’m ship’s cook - and now you’re come, we must go aboard. Hop in now. Narrator: With a graceful turn and a jump, Silver’s down into a little boat, untying the rope and preparing to row.

  • Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial
    Navigating the Atlantic World: Piracy, Illicit Trade, and the Construction of Commercial Networks, 1650-1791 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 Jamie LeAnne Goodall, M.A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Newell, Advisor John Brooke David Staley Copyright by Jamie LeAnne Goodall 2016 Abstract This dissertation seeks to move pirates and their economic relationships from the social and legal margins of the Atlantic world to the center of it and integrate them into the broader history of early modern colonization and commerce. In doing so, I examine piracy and illicit activities such as smuggling and shipwrecking through a new lens. They act as a form of economic engagement that could not only be used by empires and colonies as tools of competitive international trade, but also as activities that served to fuel the developing Caribbean-Atlantic economy, in many ways allowing the plantation economy of several Caribbean-Atlantic islands to flourish. Ultimately, in places like Jamaica and Barbados, the success of the plantation economy would eventually displace the opportunistic market of piracy and related activities. Plantations rarely eradicated these economies of opportunity, though, as these islands still served as important commercial hubs: ports loaded, unloaded, and repaired ships, taverns attracted a variety of visitors, and shipwrecking became a regulated form of employment. In places like Tortuga and the Bahamas where agricultural production was not as successful, illicit activities managed to maintain a foothold much longer.

They plundered extensively in the British Isles and France and even attacked as far south as Spain, Portugal and North Africa. In the ninth century they gained control of Orkney, Shetland and most of the Hebrides, conquered a large part of England and established bases on the Irish coast from which they launched attacks within Ireland and across the Irish Sea. Men and women from west Scandinavia emigrated to settle, not only in the parts of the British Isles that were then under Scandinavian control, but also in the Faeroes and Iceland, which had previously been uninhabited. In the last years of the tenth century they also began to colonize Greenland, and explored North America, but without establishing a permanent settlement there. The Scandinavian assault on Western Europe culminated in the early eleventh century with the Danish conquest of the English kingdom, an achievement that other Scandinavian kings attempted to repeat later in the century, but without success.

  • Narratives of the Literary Island: European Poetics of the Social System After 1945
    Narratives of the Literary Island: European Poetics of the Social System after 1945 Ioana Andreescu Abstract In European post-war literature, the topos of the island takes centre stage, as the insular space often narrates a micro-scale society and the reconstruction of its social system. Isolation, semantically derived from ‘island’, characterises a European society radically transformed by the traumatic violence of the twentieth century. In this context, Robinson Crusoe—the ‘rational adult white man’—is recreated and reinvented in a multitude of new meanings, newly significant for understanding a transformed (and in-transformation) European society: he is cruel, he is afraid, he is a child, he is a woman, he is alone among others. The hypothesis of this paper is that the interest in and updating of Robinson Crusoe’s story transform this narrative into a literary myth, invested via intertextual and palimpsestic approaches with “a programme of truth” (Veyne 1983) that reveals a continuous interest in an alternative social system, which is in-the-making, historically, socially, psychologically, geopolitically, and so on. The literary post-war island narratives considered here, The Magus (1965) by John Fowles and Friday, or, the Other Island (1967) by Michel Tournier, highlight the process of the rewriting and rescaling of European history, as well as the essential need for human values in the creation of a society that has economics at its core. Keywords: Robinson Crusoe, myth, power, ideology, capitalism, individualism, palimpsest, postmodernism, postcolonialism Introduction This paper seeks to relate the myth of Robinson Crusoe and that of the desert island to modern European history, in order to apprehend several poetic1 functions of the post-1945 social system, particularly as portrayed in two post-war European novels, namely The Magus (1965) by John Fowles and Friday, or, the Other Island (1967) by Michel Tournier.

  • Islands in the Screen: the Robinsonnade As Television Genre Des Îles À L’Écran : La Robinsonnade Comme Genre Télévisuel Paul Heyer
    Document generated on 09/24/2021 6:24 p.m. Cinémas Revue d'études cinématographiques Journal of Film Studies Islands in the Screen: The Robinsonnade as Television Genre Des îles à l’écran : la robinsonnade comme genre télévisuel Paul Heyer Fictions télévisuelles : approches esthétiques Article abstract Volume 23, Number 2-3, Spring 2013 The island survivor narrative, or robinsonnade, has emerged as a small but significant television genre over the past 50 years. The author considers its URI: https://id.erudit.org/iderudit/1015187ar origins as a literary genre and the screen adaptations that followed. Emphasis DOI: https://doi.org/10.7202/1015187ar is placed on how “island TV” employed a television aesthetic that ranged from an earlier conventional approach, using three cameras, studio locations, and See table of contents narrative resolution in each episode, to open-ended storylines employing a cinematic style that exploits the new generation of widescreen televisions, especially with the advent of HDTV. Two case studies centre the argument: Gilligan’s Island as an example of the former, more conventional aesthetic, and Publisher(s) Lost as an example of the new approach. Although both series became Cinémas exceedingly popular, other notable programs are considered, two of which involved Canadian production teams: Swiss Family Robinson and The Mysterious Island. Finally, connections are drawn between robinsonnades and ISSN the emerging post-apocalyptic genre as it has moved from cinema to television. 1181-6945 (print) 1705-6500 (digital) Explore this journal Cite this article Heyer, P.
