Sheep-Walk 10 (A history of two women named Elizabeth)
No full textMismatching still images of Scottish council flats with an audio track featuring a news report on Balmoral Castle, this experimental montage draws from the lived history of two women named Elizabeth, namely Queen Elizabeth II (1926-1922) and my late grandmother Elizabeth Hogg (1923-2003). Using images of the working-class housing estates in which my grandmother raised her children with a soundtrack detailing the Queen's life on her Scottish estate, the montage contrasts prevailing notions of equality and democracy in relation to the British class system as analyzed by cultural theorist Mark Fisher

Sheep-Walk 10 (A history of two women named Elizabeth) [film]
No full textThis short montage explores the interface of personal history and grand history through a juxtaposition of images of the Edinburgh council estate in which my widowed grandmother raised her three children and audio from a news report on the day-to-day life of Queen Elizabeth II at Balmoral Castle. As such, the work connects to the theme in its highlighting of the tension, or stress point, between the lived experience of two institutions, namely the (Scottish) working-class family circa 1965 and the British monarchy.

Tudor women writers fashioning masculinity
No full textThis thesis contributes to the growing interest in early modern masculinity and its literary representations by introducing texts by women writers into dialogue with their male-authored counterparts. It argues for a more nuanced approach that recognises that the concepts of masculinity and femininity can only be fully understood when studied in relation with each other.
The first chapter explores how, notwithstanding the wisdom of conduct books and marriage guides, the demands of the state may not always be commensurate with those of the domestic realm and shows that this conflict necessitates a rethinking of existing definitions of masculinity by focusing on selected writings of the Tudor sisters Mary and Elizabeth and Jane Fitzalan’s *Tragedie of Iphigeneia*. The second chapter identifies how Elizabeth’s unique discursive strategies were designed to elicit support from her male subjects and subdue the belligerence that simmered under polemic like John Stubbs’ *Gaping Gulf*. In her letters to Anjou, the chapter examines how Elizabeth manoeuvred around her position as a beloved and as a monarch to fashion a husband who would not only be sympathetic but also subordinate to her political authority. This chapter also shows how the fabulous world of John Lyly’s *Galatea* consummates the Queen’s desire for the ideal male subject. The final chapter investigates the construction of martial manhood. It juxtaposes Mary Sidney’s *The Tragedy of Antonie* with William Shakespeare’s *Antony and Cleopatra* to determine how the figure of Cleopatra, common to both plays, challenges and revises the martial code of masculinity as embodied by Antony. By examining the authorial position appropriated by Cleopatra in the plays and its impact on the narrative, this chapter also extends this thesis’ interest in the extent to which female characters within texts compete for diegetic control with male protagonists
State v. Sanchez: Case File, 2d
No full textIn State v. Peyton, Taylor Addison suffered first and second degree burns when her parked vehicle was sideswiped, spilling coffee over her left hand. No vehicle stopped after the accident, but Addison claims she saw a car identifiable as Jordan Peyton\u27s driving away from the scene. Peyton has pled not guilty to all charges and claims that she did not collide with Addison\u27s car. This second edition of State v. Peyton adds social media evidence to a case that also provides student opportunities to consider criminal trial issues such as medical expert testimony, character evidence, bias impeachment, and much more. Author Elizabeth Boals has also created an extensive teaching manual to not only help the professor with testimony but to provide skill exercises in the rules of evidence, refreshing recollection, impeachment by omission and more.https://digitalcommons.wcl.american.edu/facsch_bks/1143/thumbnail.jp

Women's life writing 1760-1830 : spiritual selves, sexual characters, and revolutionary subjects
No full textPhDThis thesis uses print and manuscript sources to analyse and interpret women's life
writing at the end of the eighteenth and beginning of the nineteenth centuries. I
explore printed works by Catharine Phillips, Mary Dudley, Priscilla Hannah Gurney,
Ann Freeman, Elizabeth Steele, Mary Robinson, Helen Maria Williams, Mary
Wollstonecraft, Grace Dalrymple Elliott, and Charlotte West and discuss the
manuscripts of Mary Fletcher, Mary Tooth, Sarah Ryan, and Elizabeth Fox. Of these
sources, five have never been analysed in the critical literature and six have received
little attention. Considered as a group, this large corpus of texts offers new insights
into the personal and political implications of different models of female selfhood and
social being.
In chapter one, I compare the religious identities presented in the spiritual
autobiographies of Quakers and Methodists. For these women, religious identification
provides a powerful sense of social belonging and enables public participation.
However, it may also lead to a loss of self in the demand for religious conformity and
self-abnegation. In chapter two, I consider the life writing of late eighteenth-century
courtesans. These women adapt available models of femininity and female authorship
in order to establish themselves as socially connected subjects. However, their
narratives also reveal that dependence on the sexual and literary marketplace puts
female selfhood under pressure. In chapter three, I explore the eyewitness accounts of
British women in the French Revolution. I argue that, for these writers, connecting
personal identity to political history is an enabling source of self-definition but it also
exposes them to the risks of self-fragmentation.
In my focus on the social function of women's life writing, I present an alternative to
the traditional alignment of the eighteenth-century autobiographical subject with the
autonomous self of individualism. These narratives allow us to reconsider the
productive and problematic dialectic between personal expression and representative
selfhood, self-authorship and collective narratives, and individualism and social
being. They suggest that women's life writing has the potential to be both the self-expression
of a unique heroine and the self-inscription of a politicised subject
The Dean and Chapter of Durham, 1558-1603
No full textThis thesis provides the first comprehensive study of the role of
an Elizabethan Cathedral in society, perhaps doubly significant because
it deals with the only diocese in which, according to Dr Collinson,
the puritans had 'unfettered control'. How this outpost of radicalism
came to be located at Durham and the way in which the puritans used
their positions of authority are both questions which are dealt with,
but the scope of the study is much wider than this. The Cathedral is
examined as a complete unit by following the interests and activities
of the individual prebends as well as of the corporation in general:
indeed, it is only when these 2 aspects of the Cathedrals work are
examined together that meaningful conclusions can be drawn. The
involvement of the Cathedral in national and local politics and the
contributions which it made to the spiritual and economic life of
the diocese are examined in some depth, and in this way a picture is
built up of a vigorous organisation with involvements in many aspects
of government and society often far removed from prevailing notions
both of Cathedrals and of the Elizabethan clergy in the localities.
The reign of Elizabeth was in many ways the vital formulative period
for the attitudes and institutions which came to characterise the
Church of England and the Cathedral represents one area which up until
now has been largely ignored: the conclusion which emerges is of an
institution which was still basically rooted in the past yet which
became in itself something new, owing little to traditional concepts of
either the monastic or collegiate life
The transcription and notation of Elizabeth Fry's journal 1780-1845
No full textThis thesis was submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and awarded by Brunel University.This thesis proposes to explain the production of Fry's journal and make available to researchers a full transcription of the autobiographical journal of Elizabeth Fry. This journal tells Fry's life story in an episodic diary format that encapsulates the last forty-eight years of her life. The justification for the production of the transcription and the motivation behind It: The thesis will investigate the importance of Fry's Journal in the evolution of the diary genre. It will justify the huge undertaking entailed in making a full transcription of Fry's journal and will discuss the condition of the journal books and their different locations. How these factors contributed to the delay in producing a transcription earlier will be considered. What motivated Fry to write her journal and what influenced her to continue the process unabated for all her adult life? The reasons Fry had originally given for her journal production changed as her journal evolved and her life priorities changed. I will investigate the destruction of Fry's early journal books and her reasoning behind such editorial interference and her motivation for keeping others. Finally this section will close with an analysis of Fry's journal in order to establish what class within the diary genre it belongs. Dyslexia and its effect on Fry's journal text and the editorial procedures adopted: This part of this thesis discusses the indicators of dyslexia within the journal text and their
effect on the journal's production. I explain the resulting methodology adopted to alleviate the destructive effect that dyslexia had on the journal text. I have limited the editorial interventions undertaken when producing the transcription as I wished to maintain the integrity of Fry's journal. The final part of the thesis evaluates Fry's journal by making a
comparison with a contemporary journal. The journal I used for comparison was written by
Deborah Darby, a woman who shared many of Fry's life experiences. This thesis will
establish Fry's journal as belonging to that elite group of great diarists that includes Pepys. The appendices: these consist of a short biography of Fry with a published work explaining her role in the founding of modern nursing. A glossary of Quakers and the Gurney family terminology and finally a bibliography and the first two books, from Fry's journal with notes
