Mazza, Ph.D. University of Pittsburgh, 2009 This dissertation examines the citational use of the Judeo-Christian Bible in two sociopolitical debates within the United States: first, the debate over the abolition of slavery in the nineteenth century, and second, the contemporary debate over gay rights. This study incorporates two core theses. First, I argue that the contemporary religious right, in its anti-gay use of the Bible, is replicating the hermeneutical practices used by opponents of the abolitionist movement. My second thesis parallels the first: I argue that the contemporary activists who reclaim the Bible as a pro-gay instrument are standing in the same hermeneutical tradition as nineteenth-century Christian abolitionists.

  • 1 the African Dimension to the Anti-Federation Struggle, C.1950-53
    ‘It has united us far more closely than any other question would have accomplished’.1 The African Dimension to the Anti-Federation Struggle, c.1950-53 The documentary record of African opposition to the C[entral] A[frican] F[ederation] has been the subject renewed historiographical interest in recent years.2 This paper seeks to contribute to the existing debate in three principle ways. Firstly, it will be shown that opposition to the scheme was fatally undermined by the pursuit of two very distinct strands of N[yasaland] A[frican] C[ongress] and A[frican] N[ational] C[ongress] political activism. This dissimilar political discourse produced contradictions that resulted in the bypassing African objections. In the third instance, the paper will go a step further, suggesting that the two respective anti-Federation campaigns not only undermined Congress efforts to stop federation, but laid the path for future discord in the national dispensation then materialising. In 1988, John Darwin wrote that ‘with its telescope clapped firmly to its ear, London declared that [African] opposition [to Federation] could be neither seen nor heard’.3 The well-worn historiographical path points to the fact that African opposition was effectively ignored on the basis that ‘partnership’ between white settlers and black Africans in Northern and Southern Rhodesia and Nyasaland offered a strong rationale for the CAF. The requisite benefits arising would see the promotion of African economic opportunities, the placation of settler politicians seeking to reduce the influence of the Colonial Office and the preservation of British influence in the region.4 The utility of ‘partnership’ was in its ambiguity.

Ibowe Beinrose, Ikt., ®.H)., THE PATRON OF DERBYSHIRE LITERATURE, THIS REGISTER OF DERBY SCHOOL IS MOST RESPECTFULLY DEDICATED, AS A SLIGHT ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF HIS GENIAL ENCOURAGEMENT AND INVALUABLE ASSISTANCE DURING ITS COMPILATION. ^ PREFACE. ,__ NO work is more suited to perpetuate the fame and traditions of an ancient scliool, and to foster the spirit of brother- hood among the succeeding generations of its alumni, than a Register recording the proud distinctions or the humble achievements of those who have had the honour of belonging to it. To do this, effectually a register ought to be complete in all its parts, from the first clay the school opened its doors ; and it is evident that such a work could only be the result of a continuous purpose, coeval with the school itself. Unfortunately that task has been deferred from century to century, and has become harder in proportion to its long post- ponement. But is this a. reason why it should not at length be attempted? As the usefulness, or, to speak more correctly, the necessity of such an undertaking has in these latter times become more and more apparent at Derby School, and as procrastination only makes matters worse, the editor decided some years ago to face the difficulty and see what could be done.

  • NFLA Publishes Report Raising Concerns Over the Radium Legacy at Dalgety Bay; and Asks How Many More MOD Sites Could Be Affected?
    NFLA Media release - for immediate release, 14th October 2013 NFLA publishes report raising concerns over the radium legacy at Dalgety Bay; and asks how many more MOD sites could be affected? The Nuclear Free Local Authorities (NFLA) publishes today a new study considering the issues around radioactive contamination at Dalgety Bay in Fife and highlights a large number of other existing and former Ministry of Defence sites which could contain similar levels of contamination. (1) Over the past couple of years, the local Fife Council, the Scottish Environmental Protection Agency (SEPA), the independent Committee on Medical Aspects of Radiation in the Environment (COMARE) and the Ministry of Defence (MOD) have been dealing with the complexities of radium contamination on the beach around Dalgety Bay in east Fife. Large radioactive particles have been found on the beach and around the Dalgety Bay shoreline. Their origin is likely to have come from radium tipped dials from dismantled Second World War aeroplanes, which were disposed of after the former airfield was decommissioned. As the NFLA briefing notes, SEPA have determined that the MOD should be responsible for the clean-up of the site, but the MOD is disputing these findings. It is possible that the area could also be formally designated as „radioactively contaminated land‟. The COMARE group of health experts have also raised serious public health concerns with the radioactive contamination. The local MP, former Prime Minister Gordon Brown, has been highly critical of the MOD‟s challenge to SEPA‟s findings and urged a swift clean-up of the area. The NFLA report provides a full overview of this alarming matter, but it also further considers a long list of other existing or former MOD owned sites across Scotland, England and Wales which may also contain similar levels of radium contamination.
