The subjects of Topography may be classed under the tl1ree general heads of-natural features, the ,vorks of mnn, and the descent of property. S01nc of our early to­ pographers directed their attention principally to the for1ner of these subjects, as })lot, l\Iorton, and llorlnse; "·hilst others, of ,vho1n the 1nost successful in the elder line ,rere l~rd( 1 :;,Yick, Dugclale, and 1''horoton, adopted for their staple the records of prop('rty and genealogy, and their follo,rcrs ha\·c for1ncd the 1nore nu1nerous ~chool; or, to speak 1nore precisely, those subjects hayc occupied ••• Vlll PREFACE. by far the greater proportion of the pages of our later topographers. As, in all ages, family in1portance bas been mainly deriYed fro1n ,vealth, and as all ,veal th formerly arose from or was quickly vested in land, the descent of lauded property involves the entire history of distin­ guished families, and in their distribution and alliances is included 111uch of the public history of tl1e country. Aslunole, tl1e principal labourer for Berksl1ire, an.d the tutelary patro11 of our Society, paid chief attention to the sepulchral and heraldic me1norials of parisl1 churches ; and Browne ,,rillis, the topographical labourer in the adjoining c·ounty of Buckinghn111, was oue of the first ,vho opened those n1ines of genealogical information, the p~~­ rochial registers. The sphere of the local historian, ho,vever, is not to be narro,ved to n1ere genealogy. He must be per111ittcd, anc'! ,vill be expected, to pay attention to every 1nattcr, ancient or 111odern, natural or artificial, that has a local relation- Florifcris ut apes in saltibus 0111nia libant, Omnia- Yet these occasional subjects ought not to branch off into digressions, nor to lead to essays and disquisitions, either in geology, natural history, or ngriculturc, nor e,·cn in antiquities or biography; for such generalisations are con1111only 1nisplaccd, in a confined locality, fro1n not n1ain- • PREFACE.

A similar rule applies even in genealogical matters ; for the history of any great and far-spread race is innp­ propriately introduced on occasion of son1e petty estate where its men1bers ,vere seldo1n, if ever, resident ; but it shoulcl be rescr,·ed for the heads of baronies., for their • principal m~nsions, and actual seats.

    Publications Catalogue 2015 –16 Vogue 100 New titles A Century of Style Robin Muir While principally a fashion magazine, Vogue has never been just that. It has assumed a central and vital role on the cultural stage, with a history that spans the most inventive decades in fashion and taste, and in the arts and society. Published to mark the magazine’s centenary, and accompanying a major exhibition, this book celebrates the twentieth century and beyond with an authoritative and discriminating eye. In more than 2,000 issues, British Vogue has acted as a cultural barometer, putting fashion in the context of the wider world – how we dress, how we entertain, what we eat, listen to, watch, who leads us, excites us and inspires us. The century’s most talented photographers, Lee Miller, Norman Parkinson, Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Snowdon and Mario Testino among them, have contributed to it. In 1916, when the First World War made transatlantic shipments of American Vogue impossible, its proprietor, Condé Nast, authorised a British edition. It was an immediate success, and over the following ten decades cover Provisional of uninterrupted publication continued to mirror its times – the austerity and optimism that followed two world wars, the ‘Swinging London’ scene 310 x 254 mm, 304 pages of the sixties, the radical seventies, the image-conscious eighties – and in Over 300 illustrations its second century remains at the cutting edge of photography and design.

Although the next one hundred and fifty years in England were marked by bitter conflicts at home and military threats from abroad, they also produced some of the greatest works of English literature, notably William Shakespeare’s plays and the King James Bible. Keep the following questions in mind as you read: What were the characteristics of Renaissance humanism? How is humanism reflected in Shakespeare’s works? How did the metaphysical and Cavalier poets respond to the religious conflicts of their time? OBJECTIVES In learning about the English Renaissance, you will focus on the following: • analyzing the characteristics of various literary periods and how the issues influenced the writers of those periods • evaluating the influences of the historical period that shaped literary characters, plots, settings, and themes • connecting literature to historical contexts, current events, and your own experiences 237 00236-0250236-0250 UOU2-845482.inddUOU2-845482.indd 237237 11/8/07/8/07 11:25:1011:25:10 AMAM Dr. Faustus, 17th c. engraving.

  • Military Culture of Shakespeare's England
    MILITARY CULTURE OF SHAKESPEARE’S ENGLAND by DONG HA SEO A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY The Shakespeare Institute School of English, Drama and American & Canadian Studies College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham September 2011 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Abstract This thesis examines the development of military culture in, and its effects on, early modern English society. Militarism during the late Elizabethan and early Stuart periods was not reinforced by military institutions directly interfering with the private lives of individuals, or by controlling the thoughts and actions of the whole nation. It was, however, strongly influenced by the culture of a military elite, represented by leading noblemen such as Leicester, Sidney, Essex, and Prince Henry, who paid considerable attention to the theatrical aspects of formal and ceremonial occasions and how their military role was portrayed in art and literature. Unlike the usual traditional portrayal of these prominent figures as incompetent military leaders who rushed blindly forwards in pursuit of military glory, we will see that through their aristocratic patronage of various art forms they promoted their image as competent Protestant warriors, and helped the public to be receptive to a variety of military ideas.

Essex’s International Agenda in 1595 and His Device of the Indian Prince Abstract In the fall of 1595, Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex, was poised to attain political greatness, and he knew it. The international political climate had become sufficiently precarious that a statesman with Essex‘s particular expertise in foreign intelligence and military matters possessed skills well-tailored to address England’s current crises. Spain was once again preparing to invade, this time with an armada greater than in 1588; relations with England’s key ally France were cooling; and the financial and military advantages of asserting a presence in the New World were becoming increasingly evident. Aware of this moment as opportune for his political career, Essex engaged in a period of intense personal campaigning during the latter half of 1595— campaigning that, significantly, involved two theatrical entertainments produced for Queen Elizabeth I.
