MONOGRAPHS IN EDUCATION "PERMISSION TO REPRODUCETHIS MATERIAL IN MICROFICHEONLY HAS BEEN GRANTED BY VII )oreen Shanks TO THE EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES INFORMATION CENTER (ERIC)." Guide to Bibliographies in Education Doreen Shanks General Editors Alexander Gregor Keith Wilson University of Manitoba FOREWORD TheMonographs in Educationseries is published semi-annually by the Faculty of Education, University of Manitoba, as ameans of encouraging and disseminating research and scholarly writingon varied topics ia Canadian education. In keeping with these broad terms of reference, this volume is intended to provide a much needed tool in educational research. The crucial importance of bibliographicsources is obvious to anyone grappling with the incremental growth in research litera- ture, and to anyone having to plan the purchase oflibrary materials in the face of corresponding shrinkage in institutionl budgets. As both a former reference librarian, and as the current head of the Education Library at the University of Manitoba, Doreen Shanks is well aware of both dilemmas; and we are confident that her study will be of equal value to both researchers and librarians. We reiterate our sincere appreciation to the Dean of Education for his continued support of this series; and to the Research Grants Committee of the University of Manitoba for its support of this issue.

There seemed to be a remarkabledearth of comprehensive bibliographies useful for collectiondevelopment in an education library, since there had been no extensivelistings covering the field of education compiled sinceTheodore Besterman's Education: a Bibliography of Bibliographies, which listsitems published prior to 1964. This lack makes it difficul t toidentify materials that should be added to strengthen the researchvalue of a collection, or to assess the strength of holdingsin a particular area of study. The intent of this work, then, is toprovide a bibliography of bibliographies that will be useful tolibrarians responsible for collection development in an educationlibrary. It is hoped that it might also be useful to students andresearchers in the field of education. Scope This bibliography covers a time periodof 1964 to 1980. The year 1964 was selected as the initial datesince the 4th edition of Rester- man's World BibliographyofBibliographies, on which the Educa- tion compilation is based, recordsbibliographies .published through 1963. It is not implied orintended that this bibliography should have the same scope and coverage asthat of Besterman, but it was thought that a compilationthat included bibliographies published after the 1963 demarcationdate would be useful. All relevant bibliographies published in1980 may not be included, since they may not have appeared inthe sources consulted prior to December, 1980. Items considered for inclusion raphies in the English were separately published bibliog- language from Canada, theUnited States, Europe, Australia and New Zealand. Bibliographies in theFrench language published in Canadawere also included. In an attempt to providea certain degree of comprehensiveness without producinga document that was overly long certain other limitations and unwieldy, were observed. It was decidedto exclude all materials that were producedby or related to the Educational Resources Information Center(ERIC). This decision the premise that information was based on concerning bibliographies ofthese materials is readily availableto librarians and researchers through automated informationretrieval systems. General listings of theses and ual institutions in Canadadissertations completed at individ- and the United Stateswere also excluded. It was thought thatmore comprehensive compilations, such as Dissertations Abstracts International (for which there isan information retrieval system), Master's Theses in Education,and Directory of Education Studiesin Canada were more useful general approach to these for a materials. However, bibliographiesof theses and dissertationson specific topics were included their value in providing because of direct access to specializedareas. Refer- ence guides to specific collectionswere omitted. It was felt that these would provide littlemore than duplication of items listed other bibliographiss. in Bibliographies that list only school curriculum materialswere also excluded. It is thegeneral practice in most large libraries to separate education these materials from the maincollection of resources for study and research,hence it seemed reasonable make this a limiting criterion. to Where succeeding editionsof the same titlewere published during the years underconsideration, only the later edition if the revision includes is listed earlier listings as wellas updating informa- tion. Where the new editioncontains updating information both editions are listed. only, Sources Sources searched were: University of Alberta Libraryshelf list. Library nf Congress Catalog.

    Memory of the World International Register Collections of the 19th century of the Polish Historical and Literary Society / Polish Library in Paris / Adam Mickiewicz Museum (Poland) 2012-26 1.0 Summary (max 200 words) The Polish Library in Paris (Bibliothèque Polonaise de Paris—BPP) was created in 1838 by Polish political émigrés who had found shelter in the French capital. This is where they could carry on various actions aiming at gaining back the independence of the State which had been lost at the end of the 18th century. Led by the wave of ideologies linked to independence and people’s freedom movements arisen in Europe in the early 19th century, it was established as a peaceful form aiming at fighting for freedom and independence. In the 19th century, Europe built places of memory such as libraries and archives in the independence States. At that time, the BPP acted as a means of substitution and continuity of the institutions destroyed by the foreign forces occupying the Polish territories. It came to birth thanks to the efforts carried out by the émigrés and the support of European intellectual elites as well as the authorities of the French State. The latter felt involved in the idea originating the creation of the BPP and they supported the action of a nation whose fight for independence, during the Uprising of 1831, had moved many European nations, aroused their admiration and strengthened their own aspirations for independence. The Polish Library gathered the scattered sources which enabled to document the history of Poland, along with the publications carried out by the emigration.

Thiry, B. A., M. A. ****** The Ohio State University 1970 Approved by Iviser Department of History PREFACE For those with professional interest in the Reforma­ tion era, Ferdinand of the House of Habsburg requires no special introduction here. As the younger and sole brother of Charles V, who was the Holy Roman Emperor of the German Nation in the first-half of the sixteenth century, Ferdi­ nand's place among the list of secular, notables of the pe­ riod is assured. Singled out in 1521 by his imperial brother to be the Archduke of Austria and to become his personal representative in Germany, attaining the kingships of Bohe­ mia and Hungary in 1526 and 1527 respectively, and designated, following his brother's abdication and retirement from pub­ lic life in 1556, to succeed him as emperor of Germany, Fer­ dinand could not help leaving behind him from such political heights indelible footprints upon the course of history. Yet, probably because of the fragmentation of Ferdi­ nand's energy into these many various channels of responsi­ bility and the presence of his illustrious brother, Charles V, and his fanatical nephew, Philip II of Spain, who both eclipsed his own place on the stage of history, Ferdinand's historical significance has been largely overlooked by IX posterity.

  • Kalendarium Życia Ignacego Domeyki Ancuta (1802-1889)
    KALENDARIUM ŻYCIA PANORAMA DE LA VIDA Herb rodowy Domeyków „Dangiel” Blasón familiar de Domeyko „Dangiel” KALENDARIUM ŻYCIA IGNACEGO DOMEYKI ANCUTA (1802-1889) Motto O Domeyce pamięć trwałą Żywmy wiek za wiekiem: Wczoraj - tylko był człowiekiem, Dziś ludzkości chwałą!1 WSTĘP 200-lecie urodzin Ignacego Domeyki staje się okazją do przypomnienia jego życia i dzieła. O ile w Polsce znany jest dość powszechnie okres działalności Domeyki w kręgu Filomatów i Filaretów w Wilnie oraz jego tułaczki emigracyjnej w Niemczech i Francji, o tyle mniej wiadomo o najważniejszym okresie jego działalności w ciągu 50 lat pobytu w Chile. Historycy nauki, podejmujący badania nad życiem i dziełem Ignacego Domeyki, opierali swe prace na źródłach fragmentarycznych, do których mieli dostęp. Dotyczy to zarówno opracowań o charakterze encyklopedycznym, jak i monograficznym. Ze zrozumiałych względów, najmniej szczegółowo znamy życie i działalność Do­ meyki w Chile. Dwa etapy jego życia i pracy w tym kraju: kilkuletni pobyt w La Serenie - Coquimbo oraz kilkudziesięcioletni pobyt w stolicy Chile, Santiago, pozostawiły trwały ślad w kulturze i nauce młodego demokratycznego państwa. Najbardziej trwałe piętno odcisnął Domeyko w historii chilijskiej Alma Matar - Universidad de Chile, którego był współtwórcą i wieloletnim rektorem. Jest to najstarszy i największy uniwer­ sytet tego kraju, jeden z najlepszych w Ameryce Łacińskiej. Możliwość rekonstrukcji kolei życia i pracy Domeyki zawdzięczamy jego niezwy­ kłej pracowitości i systematyczności. Miał on bowiem zwyczaj skrupulatnego pamięt­ nikarskiego rejestrowania wydarzeń z życia własnego, jak i społecznego, politycznego i kulturalnego: na Litwie, w Niemczech, we Francji, a przede wszystkim w Chile. Nie rozstawał się z notatnikiem, w którym zapisywał najdrobniejsze szczegóły i obserwacje.

  • Those in Between: Princely Families on the Margins of the Great Powers Jonathan Spangler (Final Version, October 2008)
    Those In Between: Princely Families on the Margins of the Great Powers Jonathan Spangler (Final version, October 2008) “To a gentleman, any country is a homeland.” --Cardinal Jules Mazarin (Giulio Mazzarino)1 “We are looked upon as the last of the Gauls or as the first of the Germans. We are neither Gauls nor Germans; we belong at once to both of them.” -- from an eleventh-century necrology, Saint-Lambert de Liège2 Strasbourg, 1827—After having resided peaceably in this city since his Alsatian estates were restored to him by the Congress of Vienna in 1815, the Prince of Salm-Salm was required to leave France by the new Conservative Catholic Royalist government. His crime? He had declared his intention to convert to Protestantism. The issue at stake, however, was whether or not the formerly sovereign prince was to be considered an alien or a citizen and thus subject to French law. In his defense, the prince produced example after example of his ancestors’ and his own service to the French crown in the preceding centuries. His uncle was a French field marshal who had raised troops from Alsace for Louis XV at his own expense, and his younger brother had worked to keep the northeast frontier loyal to Louis XVI as bishop of Tournai.3 But examples could be provided in equal numbers of his ancestors’ service to the Empire. His own father, the French field marshal’s brother, had been an Austrian field marshal and governor of Luxembourg.4 Two brothers, two careers; one French, one Austrian. For a princely family hailing from the borderlands between France and the Empire, this scenario was entirely commonplace, a standard family practice for survival between larger powers.

  • 1953-1968.Pdf
    VOLUMES 59 TO 73 Index The Alpine Journal 1953-68 Compiled by D. F. o. Dangar SBN 9°°523 04- 2 The Alpine Club, 74- South Audley Street, London, WI Y 5FF Preface The present volume of the Index to the Alpine Journal, the fourth in the series, carries the Index from 1953 (Volume 59) to 1968 (Volume 73), the last year before the change of the Journal into a single annual volume. The proposal for this continuation of the consolidated Index was made in late 1968, when the Committee invited Mr D. F. O. Dangar to undertake it. His willingness to do this in addition to the heavy burden of the Assistant Editor- ship of the Alpine Journal itself, and the speed with which he completed the vast amount of work involved, are very greatly appreciated; and the Alpine Club has recognised the outstanding contribution which he has made to the objects of the Club, through his work both on the Alpine Journal and on suc- cessive volumes of the Index, by electing him to Honorary Membership. The thanks of the Club are also due to Mrs Sarah Hollis for her work on the typescript. Charles Evans President May I970 Foreword This Index has been compiled on the same basis as the previous volume, but, to save space, the writers of obituaries and reviews have not been indexed. In addition to portraits, illustrations that have been indexed are, in general, those of single mountains or mountain ranges which are likely to be of geo- graphical interest. Pictures of pitches, or small sections of a climb, high camps and similar subjects have not been indexed: although of contemporary interest, it is felt that such illustrations, which usually in any case are referred to in the associated articles, can be omitted without serious detriment to the value of the Index.

  • The Countess of Counter-Revolution: Madame Du Barry and the 1791
    THE COUNTESS OF COUNTER-REVOLUTION: MADAME DU BARRY AND THE 1791 THEFT OF HER JEWELRY Erik Braeden Lewis Thesis Prepared for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS UNIVERSITY OF NORTH TEXAS December 2015 APPROVED: Michael V. Leggiere, Major Professor Marijn S. Kaplan, Minor Professor Nancy L. Stockdale, Committee Member Richard B. McCaslin, Chair of the Department of History Costas Tsatsoulis, Dean of the Toulouse Graduate School Lewis, Erik Braeden. The Countess of Counter-Revolution: Madame du Barry and the 1791 Theft of Her Jewelry. Master of Arts (History), December 2015, 169 pp., references, 91 titles. Jeanne Bécu, an illegitimate child from the Vaucouleurs area in France, ascended the ranks of the Ancien régime to become the Countess du Barry and take her place as Royal Mistress of Louis XV. During her tenure as Royal Mistress, Jeanne amassed a jewel collection that rivaled all private collections. During the course of the French Revolution, more specifically the Reign of Terror, Jeanne was forced to hatch a plot to secure the remainder of her wealth as she lost a significant portion of her revenue on the night of 4 August 1789. To protect her wealth, Jeanne enlisted Nathaniel Parker Forth, a British spy, to help her plan a fake jewel theft at Louveciennes so that she could remove her economic capital from France while also reducing her total wealth and capital with the intent of reducing her tax payments. As a result of the theft, her jewelry was transported to London, where she would travel four times during the French Revolution on the pretext of recovering her jewelry.
