An edition of the Coucher Book and charters of Bolton Priory (Yorkshire)
No full textThis thesis contains an edition of the Coucher Book of Bolton Priory, an Augustinian house in Yorkshire, together with edited sections of Dodsworth MS 144, like the Coucher Book, a copy of the lost cartulary, and a number of original charters. These documents have been edited in full, with each being preceded by a caption in English together with a date and references to other copies. The edition of the Coucher Book contains notes as to where those sections believed to have been omitted from the cartulary are located in Dodsworth NIS 144. The chapters which precede the edition are intended to give some context to the edition, as well as a brief examination of its contents. The first chapter contains a short history of the Augustinian Order, its development in England, and how Bolton Priory fits into this scheme. Chapter two is concerned with the patrons and benefactors of the priory. It is divided into two sections: the first examines the founders and patrons of the priory and their descendants, whilst the second explores the non-patronal benefactors of the house, with a brief analysis of several of the families who were connected from an early date with the priory, as well as the extent of their support and their motives. The third chapter investigates the estates of the priory and their development. Temporal property is examined first, focussing upon the various types of property acquired, together with its location, and methods of acquisition, and then spiritualities: those churches in which the canons acquired an interest, and to what extent as well as how this was acquired. Finally chapter four examines the lost cartulary and the Coucher Book, exploring their administrative histories, as well as a brief analysis of the charters of the founders and others

Postvocalic /r/ in New Orleans: Language, place and commodification
No full textFrom silva dimes to po-boys, r-lessness has long been a conspicuous feature of all dialects of New Orleans English. This dissertation presents a quantitative and qualitative description of current rates of r-lessness in the city. 71 speakers from 21 neighborhoods were interviewed. R-pronunciation was elicited in four contexts: interview chat, Katrina narratives, a reading passage and a word list. R-lessness was found in 39% of possible instances. Older speakers pronounce /-r/ less than younger speakers, and those with a high school education or less pronounce /-r/ far less than those with post-secondary education. Race and gender did not prove to be significant predictors of r-pronunciation. In contrast to past studies, many speakers in the current study discuss their metalinguistic awareness of /-r/ and their partial control of /-r/ variation, discussing switching between r-fulness and r-lessness in different contexts.
In New Orleans, this metalinguistic awareness is attributable in part to the devastation following Hurricane Katrina in 2005, when the near-disappearance of the city intensified an already extant nostalgia for local culture, including ways of speaking. Nostalgia and amplification by advertisers and popular media have helped recontextualize r-lessness as a variable associated with a number of social meanings, including localness and authenticity. These processes help transform r-lessness, for many speakers, from a routine feature of talk to a floating cultural variable, serving as a semiotic resource on which speakers can draw on to perform localness.
This dissertation both closes a gap in research on New Orleans speech and uses New Orleans as a case study to suggest that the social meanings of linguistic features are created and maintained in part by a constellation of interrelated social processes of late modernity. Further, I argue that individual speakers are increasingly agentively engaged with these larger processes, as part of a global transformation from more traditional, place-bound populations to more deracinated individuals who choose to align themselves with particular communities and local cultural forms, particularly those that have been commodified

New approaches to structural injustice
No full textThis piece seeks to explore three recent works on structural injustice: Virgina Mantouvalou’s Structural Injustice and Worker’s Rights (2023); Robert Goodin’s Perpetuating Advantage (2023), and Maeve McKeown’s With Power Comes Responsibility: The Politics of Structural Injustice (2024). In exploring these arguments I show how each author makes an important contribution to our understanding of structural injustice, particularly with regard to our understanding of its scope, conceptualisation, and pathways to change
Surgical approach and early postoperative rehabilitation after computer assisted total knee arthroplasty
No full textComputer Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty (CA-TKA) has been demonstrated to provide more reproducible implant positioning compared to standard instrumentation, with potential benefits for prosthesis survival. When performing CA-TKA through a medial parapatellar (MPP) incision, proximal extension of the quadriceps dissection is frequently required for appropriate placement of the femoral tracking array. This study assesses early postoperative rehabilitation after CA-TKA using MPP and subvastus approaches.\ud
Introduction\ud
Computer Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty (CA-TKA) has been demonstrated to provide more reproducible implant positioning compared to standard instrumentation, with potential benefits for prosthesis survival. When performing CA-TKA through a medial parapatellar (MPP) incision, proximal extension of the quadriceps dissection is frequently required for appropriate placement of the femoral tracking array. This study assesses early postoperative rehabilitation after CA-TKA using MPP and subvastus approaches.\ud
Materials and Methods\ud
Prospective randomized controlled trial of 70 consecutive patients undergoing TKA with the LCS Rotating Platform prosthesis. Outcome measures included preoperative knee function, intraoperative factors and postoperative rehabilitation.\ud
Results\ud
Duration of surgery was significantly longer when using computer navigation, however with greater experience operative times decreased. CA-TKA performed through the MPP approach was strongly associated with a greater incidence and duration of early postoperative quadriceps lag compared to CA-TKA through a subvastus approach and\ud
TKA performed with standard instrumentation. No patient who had surgery performed through subvastus approach had a lag >20 degrees after 48 hours post surgery regardless of instrumentation system employed.\ud
Discussion\ud
This study demonstrates that CA-TKA is associated with delayed early postoperative rehabilitation when performed through the MPP approach. This observation is explained by the additional quadriceps dissection that is frequently required to place the femoral tracking array in CA-TKA. This data supports the use of a subvastus approach when performing CA-TKA due to a demonstrated quadriceps sparing effect
