  • Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing
    The UK Linguistics Olympiad 2018 Round 2 Problem 1 Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing Heraldry is the study of rank and heraldic arms, and there is a part which looks particularly at the way that coats-of-arms and shields are put together. The language for describing arms is known as blazon and derives many of its terms from French. The aim of blazon is to describe heraldic arms unambiguously and as concisely as possible. On the next page are some blazon descriptions that correspond to the shields (escutcheons) A-L. However, the descriptions and the shields are not in the same order. 1. Quarterly 1 & 4 checky vert and argent 2 & 3 argent three gouttes gules two one 2. Azure a bend sinister argent in dexter chief four roundels sable 3. Per pale azure and gules on a chevron sable four roses argent a chief or 4. Per fess checky or and sable and azure overall a roundel counterchanged a bordure gules 5.

  • Religious Experience and Symbols of Presence Amongst the People of Eastern James Bay
    RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE AND SYMBOLS OF PRESENCE AMONGST THE PEOPLE OF EASTERN JAMES BAY Jennifer Mary Davis Faculty of Religious Studies McGill University Montreal December 2007 A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy © Jennifer Mary Davis 2007 ii Abstract This study enquires into the relationship between cultural symbolism and religious behaviour in the development of a hunting and gathering society, the Cree of Eastern James Bay. Charles Taylor in Sources of the Self (1989) suggests that an individual’s cultural framework is apt to inform the perception of an alternate paradigm. He argues that in order to evaluate adequately such an alternate paradigm the framework from which judgements are made needs to be identified and understood. This study offers a review of Taylor’s ideas associated with identity. At the beginning of each chapter the pertinent areas of Taylor’s discussion are put forward as a context for research. From the geographical, topographical and linguistic data an analysis of how the environment is perceived by the people themselves is provided. The symbols used arise from the interaction between the people and the environment and call for a detailed analysis of the relationship between the activity of hunting and the celebration of that activity in the community ceremony known as Walking-Out (Wiiwiitahaausuunaanuu). The ceremony is aimed at initiating the young and at developing character. In the interrelationship between all aspects of the environment, individual and communal character is developed in conjunction with a rich spiritual symbolism which forms the basis of religious expression in every dimension of Eastern Cree life.

  • Heraldic Terms
    HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display.

  • Rules for Submissions
    Conflict Checking 101: Theory What is conflict checking? In short, conflict checking is the process of determining if two pieces of armory are so close that they would indicate the same person or a close blood relationship between the two owners. What does that mean? Both medieval and modern heraldry use various systems of cadency to differentiate arms between fathers and sons and cousins, and so on. The exact differences vary from time to time and culture to culture, but the general principle is that the child has their parent’s arms with one thing changed. Within the SCA’s period, this was fairly straightforward – literally going forward as people had children! In the SCA, however, we are working backwards; rather than trying to show close familial relationships, we’re trying to avoid them! In a generalized sense, if two pieces of armory have more than two differences, the two owners would not be related. We call these differences "Distinct Changes" or “DCs”. Additionally, some changes weren’t typically/ever used for cadency; if two pieces of armory have one of these changes, the owners would not be related either. We call these differences “Substantial Changes” or “SCs”. How do we decide which set of cadency rules to follow? Since the exact rules of cadency do vary, Laurel has had to come up with a single set of rules that we can apply consistently. In general, the current rules reflect typical cadency later in our period. Where do I get these rules, and is there anything else I need, like obscure heraldry tomes? When it comes to doing any kind of book heraldry, you’ll want to have handy the Standards for Evaluation of Names and Armory (SENA) and the Administrative Handbook.

Brison WSQ: Women's Studies Quarterly, Volume 36, Numbers 1 & 2, Spring/Summer 2008, pp. 188-198 (Article) Published by The Feminist Press DOI: 10.1353/wsq.0.0060 For additional information about this article http://muse.jhu.edu/journals/wsq/summary/v036/36.1-2.brison.html Access provided by Dartmouth College Library (18 Aug 2013 12:23 GMT) EVERYDAY ATROCITIES AND ORDINARY MIRACLES, OR WHY I (STILL) BEAR WITNESS TO SEXUAL VIOLENCE (BUT NOT TOO OFTEN) SUSAN J. BRISON Seventeen years after having been jumped from behind, beaten, raped, strangled into unconsciousness, and left for dead at the bottom of a ravine in a rural area in the south of France, I still—as I just did—occa- sionally bear witness to the assault. Why do I continue to tell this story? It certainly isn’t because I enjoy doing so: at this point, telling the story is neither therapeutic nor retraumatizing. Frankly, after telling this story hundreds of times, to perhaps a million people (if one counts the readers of the Sunday New York Times), I’m bored by it. 1 But I continue to tell it, albeit with decreasing frequency, because doing so is bearing witness to something much larger, and much worse, than what happened to me per- sonally: namely, the atrocity of widespread and ongoing gender-based violence against women around the world. I also mention it, somewhat paradoxically, to reassure other victims of sexual violence that I’ve moved beyond it and don’t feel the need to talk about it regularly any- more.
