Pauline Viardot: her music and the Spanish influence
Deposited with permission of the author. © 2000 Angeline BrasierPauline Viardot (1821-1910) was a Mezzo-Soprano of international acclaim and a respected vocal pedagogue of the nineteenth century, but also a composer of some renown. As a result of Viardot's extensive travels, she developed an interest in a variety of different European musical styles. This thesis is a detailed study of selected solo vocal works to help ascertain defining characteristics of Viardot's compositional style with particular emphasis on her use of Spanish styles and techniques which until now have remained unresearched. The findings will reflect the composer's interest and interpretation of cultural musical elements that are stylistically foreign to French listeners. Also referred to will be Viardot's stay in Spain during 1842. Until now, details of this tour have remained incomplete

The role of the chaplaincy in the Bermudian convict establishment
© 2007 Angeline BrasierThe role of the chaplaincy in the Bermudian convict establishment is best delineated by a case study of one of the longest serving chaplains, Rev. Robert Mantach (1795 - 1853). In the face a monumental adversity, Mantach established and superintended schools on board each hulk at Ireland Island. He helped both educated and Irish Roman Catholic prisoners obtain mitigation of sentences. His experiences as chaplain will help demonstrate how the British Government perceived the role of chaplain and how chaplains were instruments of Government policy and the extent to which this was consistent with their sacred function
Prison or paradise: disease and medicine in the Bermudian convict establishment (1824-1863)
© 2015 Dr. Angeline Mary BrasierThis PhD thesis is an inquiry into the rates of disease among the convict population in the Bermudian convict establishment and the medical practices used to treat these patients as a way to understand their living conditions. It has gone beyond the Colonial Office 37 series to survey other available data such as the ADM 101 series of the Royal Naval Hospital records and Commissioners’ Inquiries to show the extent to which the hulks themselves played a role in the cause and exacerbation of disease among the convict population. A quantitative analysis of hospital data uncovered the dominant diseases by considering both the contemporary methods of disease nomenclature and ICD-10. This comparison proves that no matter how a disease was classified the most dominant diseases were those that were the result of or were exacerbated by the filthy accommodation within the hulks. Comparisons of mortality and patterns of illness between Millbank and Gibraltar show a wider context of disease causation, and the extent to which conditions in Bermuda were better or worse than these other prisons. Quantitative analysis of therapeutics used in Bermuda and comparison of therapeutic trends between Bermuda, the hulk establishment at Woolwich and convict ships at sea, will show that practices in Bermuda were in part relative to the availability of therapeutics yet also conformed to West Indian norms of treating inflammatory conditions. Part of this investigation into medical facilities shows the extent to which clinical medicine influenced the doctor-patient relationship in Bermuda; how convicts had little or no say in their treatment. Furthermore, the doctor had access to the patient’s body as an instrument of the production of medical knowledge, the outcome of which seems to benefit the Bermudian convicts in cases of epidemic yellow fever when other treatments failed. Further investigation into the convicts in the First Fleet and Swan River Colony in Australia, Wakefield prison, Coldbath Fields prison, and Woolwich and Chatham hulk establishments in England will demonstrate that this use of the convicts’ body as an instrument in the production of medical knowledge was common-place and not limited to Bermuda. Overall, these factors paint a more accurate picture of the lived experience for the Bermudian convict
Prisoners' Bodies: Methods and Advances in Convict Medicine in the Transportation Era
Recent historical research looks upon the plight of Australian convicts not as victims of a harsh penal system, but as workers whose health had to be judiciously maintained. What then can be said for the medical treatments provided for convict patients during this chapter in Australia's past? Did convicts receive medical treatments with the same measure of importance and urgency as the free populace, or were prisoners' bodies considered with such a measure of insignificance that they provided veritable opportunities for advances in medicine? This article will provide general insight into prison medicine in Australia during the transportation era and how some convicts were subjected to experimental medical practices. It will also place these techniques into a wider global context by considering experimental practices involving convict patients in establishments in other places, such as Wakefield and Bermuda
ChatGPT? What is all this hype about? / Assoc. Prof. Dr Angeline Ranjethamoney Vijayarajoo
Since the release of ChatGPT, there is much being said about how this can enhance student learning and how teaching staff can adapt their teaching and assessment to embrace this new AI. Having said all this, the fact remains that there has been less said in terms of academic literature published on ChatGPT. This article reviews some work done on ChatGPT, in the area of education, specifically, in four countries -Australia, New Zealand, the United States and the United Kingdom. The themes covered by the article include academic integrity and the voice of students. The author focusses on these two aspects, being a member of an academic institution in Malaysia. However, there is still much research that needs to go into these areas before more findings and better ways of managing AI can be achieved
