  • The Slave Trade from Madagascar to Jamaica
    Justin Dunnavant Fall 2012 Africana Bibliography Dr. Dan Reboussin From the Forgotten Shores: The Slave Trade from Madagascar to Jamaica The topic of slavery is very broad but there are considerably less sources when discussing the slave trade from Southeast Africa and, more specifically, from Madagascar to Jamaica. Initial searches for “Madagascar, slave trade, and Jamaica” yielded few results thus I had to redefine and broaden my search terms in addition to diversifying my databases and search engines. I found it useful to research aspects of the trade separately as opposed to all of those terms together. Once I narrowed down a time period (1671- 1719) I was able to search early Madagascar and slave trade history, then early Jamaican history. Searching databases for Madagascar and Jamaica separately greatly increased my search results and ability to find pertinent information. References 1. African Bibliography 2012 Manchester, England: Manchester University Press. Annual 1985-2012. Accessed, 2 December 2012. http://www.africabibliography.cambridge.org/ The African Biography is an extension of Cambridge University’s International African Initiative and features references to all articles published under their aegis. I searched “slave trade Madagascar” and was surprised that it offered journal articles that previous searches on OneSearch and Google Scholar failed to yield. All of my searches led me to articles no earlier than 2003 making this an excellent database for getting the most up-to- date references. Additionally the database is easily navigable with the ability to filter search results by county, region, subject, publication date, author, and document type. These same filters are also available for general browsing making it much easier than browsing other databases.

It incorporates comparable data from the reigns of Edward VI, Mary I, and the Elizabeth I. Much of the analysis is quantitative in nature: chapters compare the appointments of justices of the peace during the reigns of Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I, and reveal that purges of the commissions of the peace were far more common than is generally believed. Furthermore, purges appear to have been religiously- based, especially during the reign of Elizabeth I. There is a gap in the quantitative data beginning in 1569, only eleven years into Elizabeth I’s reign, which continues until 1584. In an effort to compensate for the loss of quantitative data, this dissertation analyzes a different primary source, William Lambarde’s guidebook for JPs, Eirenarcha. The fourth chapter makes particular use of Eirenarcha, exploring required duties both in and out of session, what technical and personal qualities were expected of JPs, and how well they lived up to them.

  • Daniel Defoe Was Born Is Presumed to Have Been Born in the Fall of 1660
    Chapter 1 London’s Birchin Lane is a short and narrow street, running north-south between the larger Cornhill and Lombard streets. Known in the Middle Ages for its collection of secondhand clothing shops, it eventually became home to several fine men’s clothiers, a destination where men of distinction could pick up something special: a whalebone doublet, perhaps, or a “captain’s suit . stuffed with points, and a pair of velvet slops scored thick with lace.” By the 18th century, it was also home to Old Tom’s Coffee House, which would gain fame by the end of the century for being a hangout of the famous Shakespearean actor, David Garrick. But in 1729, it hosted a no less interesting figure, the rather curious and shadowy Robert Drury. Across town, the famous author Daniel Defoe, widely considered the inventor of the realistic or historical novel, and working under the alias Andrew Moreton Esq., toils over what will be his final work, Second Thoughts Are Best: or, a Further Improvement of a Late Scheme to Prevent Street Robberies. Drury’s story was precisely of the type that most appealed to Defoe and, considering the proximity, there’s little doubt that the famous author had already paid Drury a visit well before his residency at Old Tom’s. * * * Now forty-two years old, Drury sits in Old Tom’s with a mug of coffee, a pile of books on the table in front of him. It’s a closed-in place, full of chatter, laughter, and barracking. Men sip coffee and read their expensive newspapers or listen for fresh news coming up from the boys sent to the docks for that purpose.

  • The Opening of the Atlantic World: England's
    THE OPENING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD: ENGLAND’S TRANSATLANTIC INTERESTS DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII By LYDIA TOWNS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Texas at Arlington May, 2019 Arlington, Texas Supervising Committee: Imre Demhardt, Supervising Professor John Garrigus Kathryne Beebe Alan Gallay ABSTRACT THE OPENING OF THE ATLANTIC WORLD: ENGLAND’S TRANSATLANTIC INTERESTS DURING THE REIGN OF HENRY VIII Lydia Towns, Ph.D. The University of Texas at Arlington, 2019 Supervising Professor: Imre Demhardt This dissertation explores the birth of the English Atlantic by looking at English activities and discussions of the Atlantic world from roughly 1481-1560. Rather than being disinterested in exploration during the reign of Henry VIII, this dissertation proves that the English were aware of what was happening in the Atlantic world through the transnational flow of information, imagined the potentials of the New World for both trade and colonization, and actively participated in the opening of transatlantic trade through transnational networks. To do this, the entirety of the Atlantic, all four continents, are considered and the English activity there analyzed. This dissertation uses a variety of methods, examining cartographic and literary interpretations and representations of the New World, familial ties, merchant networks, voyages of exploration and political and diplomatic material to explore my subject across the social strata of England, giving equal weight to common merchants’ and scholars’ perceptions of the Atlantic as I do to Henry VIII’s court. Through these varied methods, this dissertation proves that the creation of the British Atlantic was not state sponsored, like the Spanish Atlantic, but a transnational space inhabited and expanded by merchants, adventurers and the scholars who created imagined spaces for the English.

This work is intended to set forth the entire Baronetage, giving a short account of all holders of the dignity, as also of their wives, with (as far as can be ascertained) the name and description of the parents of both parties. It is arranged on the same principle as The Complete Peerage (eight vols., 8vo., 1884-98), by the same Editor, save that the more convenient form of an alphabetical arrangement has, in this case, had to be abandoned for a chronological one; the former being practically impossible in treating of a dignity in which every holder may (and very many actually do) bear a different name from the grantee.

    EXCURSIONS 1994 Reportandnotesonsomefindings 23 April.NormanScarfe,EdwardMartin, TimothyEaston;PhilipAitkensandClivePaine Nortonand Tostock Norton,LittleHaughHall (by kind permission of Mrs B.H. Fyfe-Jamieson). (Fig. 82,131.X.L11).Core of house built by Borowdale Mileson Esq. (c. 1607-78) who purchased property, 1641 and was taxed on sixteen hearths here, 1674. Estate sold by grandson Mileson Edgar (1677-1713) to Thomas Macro, wealthy grocer who lived at Cupola House, Bury St Edmunds. Macro seems to have intended house for son, Revd Dr Cox Macro (1683-1767), who, in addition to being chaplain to George 11, was notable antiquary and patron of artists, being described by Dr Richard Hurd, Bishop of Worcester (1720-1808) as 'a very learned and amiable man, the most complete scholar and gentleman united that almost ever I saw' (Peile 1913,152). Original appearance of house seen in picture (Pl.XLII) painted for Dr Macro by Dutch artist Peter Tillemans (now in Norwich Castle Museum). Tillemans a friend of Macro and died while staying with him, 1734. The two men had met by 1715; shown together in Tillemans's painting of his studio, c.1716 (also in Norwich Castle Museum). Date of house painting uncertain, but perhaps dates from late 1710s or early 1720s. Shows rectangular, three-storey, brick house with dormer windows in roof and small cupola off-centre at top. Seventeenth-century brickwork still apparent on W. front, where plainly seen that earlier framework has resulted in cramped positioning of 18th-century Venetian window in relation to door beneath it. Remainder of house now encased in white-painted render or 19th-century white brick.
