  • In the Western Mediterranean, 1703–1708
    international journal of military history and historiography 39 (2019) 7-33 IJMH brill.com/ijmh Britain, Austria, and the “Burden of War” in the Western Mediterranean, 1703–1708 Caleb Karges* Concordia University Irvine, California [email protected] Abstract The Austrian and British alliance in the Western Mediterranean from 1703 to 1708 is used as a case study in the problem of getting allies to cooperate at the strategic and operational levels of war. Differing grand strategies can lead to disagreements about strategic priorities and the value of possible operations. However, poor personal rela- tions can do more to wreck an alliance than differing opinions over strategy. While good personal relations can keep an alliance operating smoothly, it is often military necessity (and the threat of grand strategic failure) that forces important compro- mises. In the case of the Western Mediterranean, it was the urgent situation created by the Allied defeat at Almanza that forced the British and Austrians to create a work- able solution. Keywords War of the Spanish Succession – Coalition Warfare – Austria – Great Britain – Mediter- ranean – Spain – Strategy * Caleb Karges obtained his MLitt and PhD in Modern History from the University of St An- drews, United Kingdom in 2010 and 2015, respectively. His PhD thesis on the Anglo-Austrian alliance during the War of the Spanish Succession received the International Commission of Military History’s “André Corvisier Prize” in 2017.

Cure for Sodomy” was deemed to be sufficiently inflammatory that the police escorting the National Pilgrimage of Our Lady of Walsingham in 2004 required that it be taken down (fig. 9).1 Disgust at this official line can be found, as a component of a substantial campaign of vilification of the shrine, on the website of the European Institute of Protestant Studies (EIPS) which is housed in the Paisley Jubilee Complex of the Martyrs‟ Memorial Free Presbyterian Church in Belfast. Its President is Ian Paisley, until recently First Minister of Northern Ireland, founder and moderator of the Free Presbyterian Church in Belfast and possessor of an Honorary Doctorate from the evangelical Bob Jones University in Greenville, South Carolina. The purpose of the institute is to “expound the Bible and expose the Papacy” and it offers courses which include “showing Roman Catholics the way to Christ,” “False doctrines of Roman Catholicism,” and “The Church of Rome and Politics (an exposure of the Vatican conspiracy to overthrow civil government from the twelfth century to the present, with particular emphasis on the history of Papal assaults against Britain and Rome's contemporary involvement in the European Union).”2 [Fig.

Crowder, Content Editor Saint Aidan, Bishop and Confessor 31 August, A.D. 2015 The Crozier The Right Rev’d D. Francis Lerow, Bishop Ordinary Missions and Decisions, Planning and Money For many of our parishes, renewal tends to be an ongoing affair. We think very hard about our home parish. All of us want our church to have impact on the community and our community to have greater access to worship and the Traditional Anglican way. We depend on our vestries to drive the wagon that ensures that proper planning and resources are available to support the annual plan established at the Annual Parish Meetings. The problem with planning is that it quickly can lose the interest of the members of the parish. It is easy to fall back into our old ways, thinking that the Sunday Worship Service is all we need to bring them to Christ and eventually membership in the Church. Or if we have a young electrifying priest that will lead the way all will be well. It would be nice if it was that easy. But, we all know it is not. So what does it take? What kind of investment of time and resources does it take to really make things happen? What will cause the kind of renewal for which we all hope and pray? The business metric used to determine the effort and cost to sell a particular item of merchandise, as a rule of thumb, is to measure how many times their product gets the attention of a potential buyer.

  • The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860
    PRESERVING THE WHITE MAN’S REPUBLIC: THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF AMERICAN CONSERVATISM, 1847-1860 Joshua A. Lynn A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Harry L. Watson William L. Barney Laura F. Edwards Joseph T. Glatthaar Michael Lienesch © 2015 Joshua A. Lynn ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Joshua A. Lynn: Preserving the White Man’s Republic: The Democratic Party and the Transformation of American Conservatism, 1847-1860 (Under the direction of Harry L. Watson) In the late 1840s and 1850s, the American Democratic party redefined itself as “conservative.” Yet Democrats’ preexisting dedication to majoritarian democracy, liberal individualism, and white supremacy had not changed. Democrats believed that “fanatical” reformers, who opposed slavery and advanced the rights of African Americans and women, imperiled the white man’s republic they had crafted in the early 1800s. There were no more abstract notions of freedom to boundlessly unfold; there was only the existing liberty of white men to conserve. Democrats therefore recast democracy, previously a progressive means to expand rights, as a way for local majorities to police racial and gender boundaries. In the process, they reinvigorated American conservatism by placing it on a foundation of majoritarian democracy. Empowering white men to democratically govern all other Americans, Democrats contended, would preserve their prerogatives. With the policy of “popular sovereignty,” for instance, Democrats left slavery’s expansion to territorial settlers’ democratic decision-making.

  • Apocryphilia
    Apocryphilia Simon Matthews Our Island Story Before the teaching of history to children in this country descended to its current formula of dinosaurs + Romans + Henry VIII + Hitler (with a side helping of slavery) the past was taught in a rather different way. Many who were at primary school pre-1980 will be familiar with it: Our Island Story, the carefully nuanced account of how ‘the British Isles’ produced the greatest and most progressive people in the world. Written in 1905 it was, remarkably (or not?), still a common textbook 70 years later. It’s durability, popularity and influence, over a century later, has been recently cited by prime minister David Cameron and the centre-right think tank Civitas as an example of something they would like to see updated and reintroduced. Why is this? The Our Island Story narrative certainly has its attractions. Stressing national unity, in which Englishness is overwhelmingly predominant, it gives key early roles to Alfred the Great and William the Conqueror – the latter not, of course, English – with the repelling of foreign invasions and conquests (nothing since 1066) a critical factor, highlighted by the dispersal of the Spanish Armada in 1588 and, latterly, the defeat of Napoleon (1815) and Hitler (1940). British/English excursions into Europe are seen as the brilliantly executed ventures of plucky underdogs (Agincourt, Waterloo and Dunkirk are typical here) against overwhelming odds. The literary backdrop, from Shakespeare, Milton, Pepys, Dickens etc., embellishes this. Milton appears more or less in tandem with Cromwell, both as exemplars of grimly moral, upstanding and typically English parliamentarians – refusing to bow down before Rome and ensuring the lasting legitimacy of the House of Commons.....this being portrayed throughout the book as the finest and fairest legislature in the world.

  • Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1
    The Beauty of Holiness: Anglican Worship and Sacramental Theology 1 THE CONGRESS OF TRADITIONAL ANGLICANS June 1–4, 2011 - Victoria, BC, Canada An Address by The Reverend Canon Kenneth Gunn-Walberg, Ph.D. Rector of St. Mary’s, Wilmington, Delaware After Morning Prayer Friday in Ascensiontide, June 3, 2011 THE BEAUTY OF HOLINESS: ANGLICAN WORSHIP AND SACRAMENTAL THEOLOGY When I was approached by Fr.
