Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 2: A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History Biography and Antiquities of the County of Devon; From January 1902 to October 1903 On the completion of the second volume of Down Notes Queries, we have to express our thanks to the many contributors who have assisted us during the two years over which its publication has extended. The contents are varied, and much information, in connection with many matters relating to our county, has been collected and preserved in our pages. The supplementary parts, containing Mr. Crossing's Crosses of the Moor, which has been completed, and the Morebath Churchwardens' Accounts, edited by the Rev. J. Erskine Binney, which are still in course of printing, have been much appreciated, appealing of course to different interests. The success of the Magazine justifies our belief that such a publication was a want, and we have done our best, with the assistance of our publisher, to produce a satisfactory medium of communication between the many lovers of the history, literature and antiquities of Devon. We again ask for contributions, that the new volume commencing in January next may be worthy of its predecessors. Notes of historical events and documents, on places, things and persons will be welcome, and photo graphs of objects of archeological value will be gladly received.

Book Historical Perspectives on Social Identities

Download or read book Historical Perspectives on Social Identities written by Alyson Brown and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2009-01-14 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of work on the theme of identities was the result of a conference held in the spring of 2005 at Edge Hill under the auspices of The Centre for Liverpool and Merseyside Studies. Whilst a significant proportion of the research focused on Liverpool and the North West, the theme of identities was sufficiently broad to entice scholars from diverse and varied fields. This collection, therefore, reflects the range of work presented and discussed at the conference and the multi-layered and multi-facetted nature of identity. Contributors to this edited collection examined the concept of identity in Britain through a range of historical perspectives, concerning themselves primarily with the later modern period. They reflect the extent to which nineteenth and twentieth century British social, cultural and political change has given rise to pluralist, fragmented and fractured identities and highlight the extent to which class, gender, religious and institutional frameworks have shifted continually. This publication will therefore be of interest to those working in diverse fields but who share an interest in the importance of identity as a decisive cultural, social, economic and political determinant. Questions of identity have centred a good deal of debate in the social sciences, especially since the reception of Foucault's work in the English-speaking world in the last couple of decades. This has often taken a theoretical form. Attempts to link theory with analytical practice have been strongest in the field that might be characterised as the 'politics of identity'. At any rate this has provided an important instance of theoretical and practical conflict. Herethe focus of the debate has been around questions of gender, nation, language, economy, security and race. It has tried toto clarify crucial divisions in the analysis of identity as between explanatory and constitutive models, and between positivist and post-positivist procedures. For the most part these intense and extensive concerns have passed by largely unnoticed among historians practising in Britain in the well-found but conventional idioms of political and social history. What this conference volume seeks to do is to help redress thedeficit, to domesticate some of the theoretical and polemical exchanges around 'identity' into a world of practical,yet conceptually aware historical work. This is a difficult but surely worthwhile task: to broach various imaginaries of identity, issues of identitarian politics, and questions of identity formation on a series of relatively familiar historical contexts. Of course, no selection of subjects for practical research in this way can be exhaustive. The group of essays offered here is sufficiently wide, and occasionally gratifyingly unexpected, at least to begin the job, to stimulate others and, most importantly, to interject theoretical concern into historial fields sometimes lacking it. Ten essays are included, together with the editor's introduction. The pieces are bound together by a common strategy not a shared empirical territory. They range from studies of gendered identity formation , to regional identities formed around seaside resorts, to empirical questions of class and capitalism and their identitarian politics, to historical analysis of mourning, and on to language, nationality, deafness, motherhood and their inflection in identity in past time. This well-edited combination of shared conceptual purpose and variety of empirical form seems to me to work well. The book will be widely used in a variety of historical fields, not least in those which have been the most resistant to recenttheoretical innovations in the social sciences. Keith Nield Editor SOCIAL HISTORY 'This is a fascinating and wide-ranging collection of essays linked by the over-riding theme of identity. While primarily historical in their focus, the essays will be of interest to more than just historians. They raise a variety of interesting conceptual and theoretical issues, from, for instance, the significance of the staymaker in the formation of eighteenth-century female identity, to the relationship between regional identity and late-nineteenth and early twentieth century Lancashire seaside resorts.' Sam Davies, Professor of History, School of Social Science, Liverpool John Moores University

Book Devon Notes and Queries  Vol  4  A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History  Biography and Antiquities of the County of Devon  From January 1906

Download or read book Devon Notes and Queries Vol 4 A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History Biography and Antiquities of the County of Devon From January 1906 written by John S. Amery and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Devon Notes and Queries, Vol. 4: A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History, Biography and Antiquities of the County of Devon; From January 1906 to October 1907 I. Aveton giffard church. - This church is pic turesquely situated on the high ground to the north-east of the Village of Aveton Giffard. It is a most interesting strue ture, and well deserves the attention of ecclesiologists from the fact of its being one of the few Early English churches remaining in Devonshire. The first view of the interior gives the impression that it is a much restored building, but a careful examination will show that the greater part of the original work remains, and that the restoration has been a careful one. The church dates mainly from the Early English period. The nave, chancel, transepts, porch, tower, and belfry stair-turret are all of this period, the earlier portions dating from'about a.d. 1260. The two windows in the north wall of the nave and all the Early English arches are probably also of this date. The chancel aisles are later - probably of the Decorated period. The south chancel aisle certainly existed in March, 1284-85, as will be shown further on. A striking feature in this building is that all the early work is in freestone, while the later work is in granite. This Observa tion would seem to apply even to a restoration at some very early period, when apparently the decayed portions of free stone were replaced by granite, as may be seen in the shafts of the north tower arch and of the inner arch of the porch, as well as in other parts of the building. In fact, this church abounds in interesting architectural details, some of which are shown in the accompanying, plates, which are reproduc tions of the admirable photographs taken by Mr. John Sparke Amery, to whom I am greatly indebted for per, mitting their use as illustrations to these notes.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Devon Notes Queries, Vol. 4: A Quarterly Journal Devoted to the Local History, Biography and Antiquities of the County of Devon; From January 1906 to October 1907 The tracery of all the windows except two is geometrical. Much Of this tracery is new work, but the original pattern has been adhered to. The two exceptions are the windows in the north wall of the nave. These are single lights, placed high up with deep splays, and are probably Of the same date as the Early English portions of the church. A string course runs along the north wall of the nave, half-way up, and returns under the west window, but is continued only for a few feet in the south wall. The central tower contains eight bells, and is supported on four arches Opening into the nave, the chance], and the two transepts respectively. The belfry is approached by a spiral stair in a circular turret outside the south-west angle of the tower, with a conical roof, which roof, however, is modern. Formerly the entrance to this staircase was in the west wall Of the south transept. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
