    This letter was written by Patrick C. May to Governor Robert Lucas on August 22, 1835. May wrote to Lucas on behalf on the volunteers in Adams county who did not react when initially called to duty because they were unsure if Lucas authorized them to act. May also asks what the pay would be for volunteers.To his Excellency R. Lucas, Esq Respected Sir, You will have the goodness to ponder a stranger for this intrusion, but rest assured Dear Sir that this communication comes from one who is a lover of his country and ever ready to vindicate her rights. Yesterday our Reg. Met in West Union and only 21 Volunteers could be obtained who were willing to defend our State!" A part of this number beg the privilege (if consistent) of receiving from you an order authorizing us to receive Volunteers enough to form a Company and appoint officers; The reason why we make this request is from the fact that a number have manifested a regret that they did not Volunteer when they had an opportunity. A want of proper energy on the part of the Govt Offices has caused the tree of Liberty to blush in Adams county. Again, (if consistent) could you give s some information relative to the pay of a Volunteer So, it might have a salutary affect upon the minds of some. We would like for those two requests to be granted. Yet Sir, we ask for nothing, but what may be consistent with your feelings and the strictest rules of propriety. I am with due regard your very humble and oft servt. Patrick C. May In behalf of the Volunteers 2nd Reg. 1s

    Art, Biography, Sexuality: Patrick Procktor and Keith Vaughan

    No full text
    This critical review forms a reflection on the research published within the following publications: Patrick Procktor: Art and Life (Unicorn Press, 2010) Keith Vaughan: The Mature Oils 1946-1977, (Sansom & Co., 2012) The research is on two artists, Patrick Procktor (1936-2003), and Keith Vaughan (1912-1977). The monograph on Procktor – previously one of the least documented of the generation of artists who came to prominence in London in the Sixties – positions him in a history of art from which he had been notably absent. The research on Vaughan asserts a new reading of his work, one that is both deeper and more nuanced in its analysis of the ways in which personal experience and sexuality are encoded autobiographically within his work. Crucially, in both artists biography and work are symbiotically linked; the research therefore examines the links between life and art. Revisionary in intent, the work examines trajectories of experience of gay British (or rather, English) artists in the twentieth century, artists who sought to express themselves and forge careers within the constraints of a heteronormative society, albeit one in which attitudes to sexuality were undergoing change. As gay men, both were constrained by the social mores of their times, and each used painting as a means to affirm personal and sexual identities. A key research interest is in the ways in which sexuality and persona are reflected in critical responses to the artist’s work: in Vaughan, Procktor and other gay male artists of the period. The writing on both Procktor and Vaughan examines the relationship between their personal and professional/artistic lives, framed within a broader socio-political and art historical context. It asserts the place of biography as a means to understand and form new readings of the work. The work adds substantially to the literature and wider discourse on post-war British painting and social history

    Patrick Chamoiseau Recovering Memory

    This timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau. Considered by many as one of the most innovative writers to hit the French literary scene in over 40 years, Chamoiseau made his name with his book Texaco (published in 1992 and winner of the highest literary prize in France, the Prix Goncourt). His books have gone on to sell millions and his work has been translated by a number of academic presses. McCusker sets the author in context, providing a valuable contribution to 'memory studies' by looking at literary representation of memory in Martinique, a society founded on slavery but now politically assimilated to the metropolitan centre, France.Title Page -- Contents -- Introduction -- 1: Beginnings: The Enigma of Origin -- 2: 'Une tracée de survie': Autobiographical Memory -- 3: Memory Re-collected: Witnesses and Words -- 4: Memory Materialized: Traces of the Past -- 5: Flesh Made Word: Traumatic Memory in Biblique des derniers gestes -- Afterword -- Notes -- Bibliography -- IndexThis timely new book skillfully examines the work of the award-winning writer Patrick Chamoiseau.
