That in itself has been an experience for which to be grateful. These fourteen years have seen many changes in the publication, not the least of which has been a new name and format. A most notable change has been the inclusion of a broader range of contributors than was the case in earlier years—faculty, staff, inside and outside lectur- ers, alumni, graduate students, and an occasional outstanding under- graduate who works under the direct supervision of a faculty member. Each of these has a part to play, as the college continues to be a com- munity of learning where minds are changed in coming to agreement about issues of significance. Some aspects of this journal, however, remain unchanged. It con- tinues to lead off each issue with the formal address to the faculty of the recipient of the Distinguished Faculty Award. The college needs to hear expertise, advice, and insight from these awardees. Also un- changed is the breadth of the materials included. The diversity, as well as the quality, of thought presented is impressive. This diversity fosters the central goals of any collection of thinkers—the development and refinement of the life of the mind. It is this life that provides the depth resource for the quality teaching that marks Carson-Newman College. The editors thank all the contributors. Other faculty, staff, and alumni are invited to offer their intellectual efforts in future issues of Carson-Newman Studies. Don H. Olive, Editor Michael Arrington, Managing Editor v Observations about the Future of Carson-Newman College [2005 Distinguished Faculty Award Address] Thomas B. Milligan, Jr. On April 19, of this year, the same day that I received the Distin- guished Faculty Award, the director of the Knoxville Opera Company, Frank Graffeo, announced his resignation. I am on the Knoxville Op- era’s e-mail list, so back in my office, after all the excitement of receiv- ing the award was over, I read the announcement that Mr. Graffeo had resigned. It was obvious to me, reading this e-mail, that this was one of those resignations where the person is not disclosing the real reason for resigning. The next time I saw Phyllis Driver, I asked her what she knew about the situation. She confirmed what I had already suspected: the Knoxville Opera was in serious financial trouble. The problems went back to Graffeo’s predecessor, who during his final year in the position put on a spectacular production of Verdi’s Aida with live elephants on the stage. Live elephants are extremely costly, and they do not contrib- ute much to the singing. Aida left the opera with a large debt. Then in the fall of 2004, the Knoxville Opera staged a production of Mozart’s Magic Flute. Ordinarily a small opera company will rent its sets and costumes; building new sets for a two-night production would be prohibitively expensive. However, on this occasion the Knoxville sculptor Richard Jolley was employed at considerable ex- pense to create the set. The idea was that Knoxville could rent the set to other opera companies and recoup some of the money. Jolley is highly regarded in the field of art; however, he had never done an opera set before. Bill Houston attended the production and agreed with the as- sessment of my wife and me that no other opera company would want to rent this set. So after the Magic Flute the Knoxville Opera was in the words of the Tennessee Ernie Ford song “another day older and deeper in debt.” I remember that when I was in college, there was no Knoxville Opera: it started in the 1970s and has been an important contributor to the culture of the region ever since. So, it appeared that my lifetime 2 would span the beginning and the end of opera in Knoxville. They had no director and no season announced for 2005-06. The rise and fall of musical organizations is nothing new. I was reminded of my own par- ticular research specialty in the history of music: London in the 1790s. The industrial revolution had made London a wealthy city. Those who had acquired wealth in trade showed off their new status by buy- ing pianos and attending concerts. The titled nobility, not to be out- done, also increased their participation in and support for the city’s musical life. Outstanding musicians from all over the Continent settled in London, attracted by the earnings they could enjoy there. In London in 1790, in addition to the many opera performances that featured the star performers brought over from Italy, there were subscription concert series including vocal and instrumental music. Usually a subscription included twelve concerts, which took place weekly from approximately

Alan Riach The Whistler's Story Tragedy and the Enlightenment Imagination in The Heart ofMidlothian The Heart of Midlothian is generally considered Scott's most approach­ able novel. David Daiches tells us that "most critics consider [it to be] the best of Scott's works."J In his short but influential 1965 study, it is the only novel to which Thomas Crawford devotes an entire chapter, and in his 1982 revision of the same book, Crawford preserves the emphasis, citing the "extended criti­ cal debate" to which the novel has been subjected by Robin Mayhead, Dorothy van Ghent, Joan Pittock and David Craig.2 In Scottish Literature since 1707, Marshall Walker tellingly chooses The Heart ofMidlothian above any other of Scott's works for extended consideration before addressing the question of Scott's fluctuating appeal as a novelist, "then and now.,,3 When Ludovic Ken­ nedy inquired in 1969, he found that the Edinburgh City Library's nine copies of the work were all out.

  • Circulation, Monuments, and the Politics of Transmission in Sir Walter Scott’S Tales of My Landlord by Kyoko Takanashi
    CirCUlaTion, MonUMenTs, and THe PoliTiCs of TransMission in sir WalTer sCoTT’s TaLEs of My LandLord by kyoko TakanasHi i n the opening passage of sir Walter scott’s The Heart of Midlothian, the narrator, Peter Pattieson, asserts that the “times have changed in nothing more . than in the rapid conveyance of intelligence and communication betwixt one part of scotland and another.”1 Here, Pattieson seems to confirm the crucial role that the speed of print distribution played in romantic print culture, particularly in relation to time-sensitive reading material such as periodical publications, po- litical pamphlets, and statements by various corresponding societies.2 indeed, the rapidity of the mail-coach that enabled up-to-date com- munication seems crucial to our understanding of the romantic period as an age that became particularly cognizant of history as an ongoing process, forming, as it were, what benedict anderson characterizes as a “historically clocked, imagined community.”3 and yet the first half of Pattieson’s sentence reveals ambivalence about such change; while he admits that there has been dramatic increase in the speed of com- munication, he also asserts that “nothing more” has changed. despite the presence of “the new coach, lately established on our road,” Pat- tieson considers the village of Gandercleugh as otherwise unchanged, since it still offers him the opportunity to collect local, historical tales that will eventually be published as Tales of My Landlord (H, 14). This representation of communication infrastructures in Tales of My Landlord series does not so much confirm the thorough penetration of a national print-based imagined community as it exposes how this national infrastructure existed uneasily alongside pockets of traditional, local communities.

  • Novels of Walter Scott As a Mimetic Vehicle for Portraying Historical Characters
    International Journal of English and Literature (IJEL) ISSN 2249-6912 Vol. 3, Issue 1, Mar 2013, 69-74 © TJPRC Pvt. Ltd. NOVELS OF WALTER SCOTT AS A MIMETIC VEHICLE FOR PORTRAYING HISTORICAL CHARACTERS SHEEBA AZHAR 1 & SYED ABID ALI 2 1Assistant Professor, Department of English, College of Applied Medical Science, Hafr Al Batin University of Dammam,Kingdom of Saudi Arabia 2Lecturer, Department of English, College of Applied Medical Science, Hafr Al Batin University of Dammam, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia ABSTRACT Sir Walter Scott is a great historical novelist. Scott’s knowledge of human psychology is evident to from the presentation of his characters. Scott’s assertion in the first chapter of Waverley is that “the object of my tale is more a description of men than manners.” He has thrown the force of his narrative upon the characters and passions of the actors; those passions, that are common to men in all stages of society, and which have alike agitated the human heart in all ages. His characters present their inherent traits with an unequalled eloquence. They are not made up of one or two sets of qualities. They are moulded from the substance of which human life is made and possess all its attributes. Present paper examines Sir Walter Scott’s method of characterization and point of excellence in the portrayal of various historical characters. KEYWORDS: Sir Walter Scott, Unequalled Eloquence, Waverley INTRODUCTION According to George Lukacs “what matters in the historical novel is not the re-telling of great historical events, but the poetic awakening of the people who are figured in those events” 1 It means that the responsibilities of a historical novelist are doubled as compared to those of the general novelist, in the matter of characterization, for he has to introduce characters from the past.

  • Sir Walter Scott – Bringing out the Best in Us
    Riach, A. (2017) Sir Walter Scott – Bringing out the best in us... National, 2017, 27 Jan. This is the author’s final accepted version. There may be differences between this version and the published version. You are advised to consult the publisher’s version if you wish to cite from it. http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/161549/ Deposited on: 30 April 2018 Enlighten – Research publications by members of the University of Glasgow http://eprints.gla.ac.uk Approaching Walter Scott: Part Three Alan Riach In the final part of this series, Alan Riach looks at Scott’s late work and legacy: powerful in the 19th century but greatly diminished in the 20th century. Why? And, since the brilliant new Edinburgh edition of his works (Go to: http://www.walterscott.lib.ed.ac.uk/index.html) has made thorough revaluation possible, what would be good reason to read him in Scotland’s circumstances now? In the late 1820s, Scott’s health declined and in 1831, after a stroke, he travelled to Italy to try to recuperate, returning, still very ill, in 1832. As his carriage approached home, he seemed to be unconscious, but when the Eildon Hills appeared, he roused himself and according to his first biographer, John Gibson Lockhart, Scott became “greatly excited” and when he saw Abbotsford, “sprang up with a cry of delight.” Lockhart was determined to present an idealised picture of the last days of Scott, to give the impression that his characteristic decency was rewarded with a tranquil passing. Doubts have been raised about this, but Lockhart’s account is undeniably touching: “About half-past one p.m.

  • BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie Van Varik
    BOBBY CHARLES LYRICS Compiled by Robin Dunn & Chrissie van Varik. Bobby Charles was born Robert Charles Guidry on 21st February 1938 in Abbeville, Louisiana. A native Cajun himself, he recalled that his life “changed for ever” when he re-tuned his parents’ radio set from a local Cajun station to one playing records by Fats Domino. Most successful as a songwriter, he is regarded as one of the founding fathers of swamp pop. His own vocal style was laidback and drawling. His biggest successes were songs other artists covered, such as ‘See You Later Alligator’ by Bill Haley & His Comets; ‘Walking To New Orleans’ by Fats Domino – with whom he recorded a duet of the same song in the 1990s – and ‘(I Don’t Know Why) But I Do’ by Clarence “Frogman” Henry. It allowed him to live off the songwriting royalties for the rest of his life! Two other well-known compositions are ‘The Jealous Kind’, recorded by Joe Cocker, and ‘Tennessee Blues’ which Kris Kristofferson committed to record. Disenchanted with the music business, Bobby disappeared from the music scene in the mid-1960s but returned in 1972 with a self-titled album on the Bearsville label on which he was accompanied by Rick Danko and several other members of the Band and Dr John. Bobby later made a rare live appearance as a guest singer on stage at The Last Waltz, the 1976 farewell concert of the Band, although his contribution was cut from Martin Scorsese’s film of the event. Bobby Charles returned to the studio in later years, recording a European-only album called Clean Water in 1987.
