Haunting History: Women, Catholicism, and the Writing of National History in Sophia Lee's The Recess
No full textThis chapter explores strategies of re-writing British history in The Recess, with particular attention to the ways in which hagiography and historiography shape responses to the nation’s past. The assumption of Catholicism as Britain’s foreign ‘other’ ignores the experiences of British Catholics and the tenacity of history and tradition that does not necessarily obey political or legislative edicts. Lee’s adaptation of British history for the purposes of her late eighteenth-century audience is apparent in some respects and subtle in others. Catholicism is explicitly condemned but is not expelled from the narrative; it enables particular discourses associated with haunting and spectrality that the ‘Age of Reasons’ sought to distance. Linked with primitivism, superstition, and political tyranny, Catholicism represents antithesis of the kind of individual and collective freedom that increasingly defined the desired ‘Britain’. The Recess returns to the site of Protestant Britain’s mythological origin and produces possible strategies of mourning and remembering, linking together Britain’s abandoned Catholic heritage and women’s experiences of cultural abandonment with hagiographic and historiographic strategies of narrating national history

No full textIdeas are like fish. You don\u27t make the fish. You catch the fish. You have to convince them to come to you. You can catch ideas from daydreaming, or you can catch ideas from places. ~ David Lynch
We all participate in escapism in some form, and ever since I was a child, my vice was starring off into nothingness, dreaming of romanticized scenes, often landscapes loosely based on the familiar curving fields and dense, luxuriant woods of rural West Tennessee. This pastime has been a prime source for the ideas explored within my paintings, particularly the human relationship with our natural environment and both the positive and negative aspects of that interaction.
The stories told by the work are often autobiographical in some regard, unwilling — and perhaps unable — to disconnect my experiences, body, and feelings from the paint. Artists such as Elly Smallwood and Jennifer Presant who center around subjects such as the female form and elements of the natural world have influenced the paintings immensely. The works sometimes bend the traditional representation of space, rather using varying degrees of detail and paint thickness to draw emphasis to specific parts. These areas of thickness are sometimes built up with experimental materials, such as hair, dried paint scraps, and salt. The juxtaposition of these textured, sometimes grimy areas and the vibrant, rendered wilderness reinforce the strange, daydream-like quality of the work.
The paintings are always asking the viewer to insert themselves, to envision their dreams or reflect on their experiences within the landscape. There is often a quiet action in the midst of taking place – perhaps a flower being lain down or a dance amongst the trees – but the paint captures only one second in time, one still glance. Yet, you finish the action, you watch hands move and wind whistle through trees as the rest unfolds in your own imagination. A stark contrast presents itself between pure, blooming pieces of Nature and the filth or dull sterility both so accurately associated with modernity. These cold corners of reality come flooding in, if only as a reminder that, for now, this is where we are, and the rest is just paint.https://digitalcommons.murraystate.edu/art399/1112/thumbnail.jp
Self-building Our Lives: social care research report
No full text#SelfBuildingOurLives is a collaborative research project drawing upon the work of Andrew Power, Melanie Nind, Andy Coverdale, Hannah Macpherson and Abigail Croydon at University of Southampton, Ed Hall and Alex Kaley at University of Dundee, and a team of advisory group partners including people with learning disabilities and their respective organisations from across the UK.The The report draws on primary research we undertook in England and Scotland with people with learning disabilities, support organisations and commissioners. This was funded by the Economic and Social Research Council (ESRC): Reclaiming social care: Adults with learning disabilities seizing opportunities in the shift from day services to community lives (ES/P011764/1). The views expressed are those of the authors and not the ESRC.It also draws upon the feedback from participants at a national impact event held in London on 13 November 2019 and feedback received via social media (@SelfBuildLives)

MOPITT V9 TIR Anomaly Event Flags
No full textThe MOPITT Version 9 Thermal-InfraRed (TIR) total column carbon monoxide (CO) measurement product has been analyzed to identify observations strongly impacted by anomalous CO emission events that perturb the CO total column from its typical behaviour, using the technique described in Jeffery et al. (2023). This technique is applied to the Level 2 MOPITT TIR CO total column observations, which have been gridded to 0.5 degree latitude by 0.5 degree longitude and averaged to produce daily mean columns at this resolution. Those grid cells displaying anomalous CO daily mean observations, termed anomaly events, are provided here.
One txt file is produced for each 10 degree latitude band. Each file contains a list of anomaly events, as identified through the above method. Each of the listed events gives the year, day of year, latitude, and longitude of the anomaly event. In addition, for each flagged event, the anomaly threshold for the associated grid cell, and the daily-mean CO total column and measurement uncertainty are presented.
Version 1.0 of these flag files covers the period March 2000 to July 2022, and are those used in Jeffery et al. (2023). This time period has been extended in subsequent versions
An Overview of Reported Hypotheses Concerning the Relationship Between the Markers of Adulthood Scale and the Inventory of the Dimensions of Emerging Adulthood
No full textA review of the intentions, methods, and findings of an examination of all accessible hypotheses concerning the Markers of Adulthood Scale (Arnett, 1998) and the Inventory of the Dimensions of Emerging Adulthood (Reifman, et al., 2007).This research was supported by the S. Erving Severtson Research Fellowship from the Forest Foundation awarded to Kaley Norman by the Division of Social Sciences at Pacific Lutheran Universit
Stratospheric Age of Air Derived from ACE-FTS and MIPAS SF6
No full textMonthly zonal mean stratospheric age of air derived from the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment – Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS) v3.5/3.6 SF6 measurements and from the Michelson Interferometer for Passive Atmospheric Sounding (MIPAS) V5R_222 and V5R_223 SF6 measurements. Age of air is provided on a 3km altitude (8-32km) and 10 degree latitude grid. The method for deriving age of air is described in Saunders et al. (2024). Two netCDF files are produced per dataset for the entire February 2004 to February 2021 period: one where a correction has been applied to account for the mesospheric SF6 sink and one where no correction has been applied. The different datasets include: ACE-FTS v3.5/3.6, ACE-FTS v3.5/3.6 coincident with MIPAS V5R, MIPAS V5R, MIPAS V5R coincident with ACE-FTS v3.5/3.6. Months without any data (i.e. MIPAS after April 2012) are left as blank entries. The standard deviation, standard error of the mean, and the number of measurements used are also provided for each age of air value
Printed by Alice Broade: the career of York's first female printer, 1661-1680
No full textAlice Broad was York’s first female printer and, for a time, the only printer in York following the Restoration of the Monarchy in 1661. Very little is known about Broad, and this chapter draws on archival research from the holdings of York Minster Library, which houses eleven of her seventeen extant publications. Broad’s career also underwrites the later development of York’s print trades. Alice’s tools and presses went with Hannah Broad into her marriage with John White and became the foundation of his own extremely successful printing business. Alice Broad was among White’s first collaborators in York and both she and her daughter would have provided the future ‘printer to their Royal Majesties’ (William and Mary) with materials, expertise, and connections in the regional trade. The unique position of York forms an important backdrop to Broad’s career as a city that is both central and regional. This chapter is the first in-depth exploration of her career in the history of York’s print trades
