Excerpt: ... has been all along too uncertain for any one to prepare for it with any energy. John had only executed one little article when he began to see what the end of it would be. Mr. Wallis has been quite otherwise occupied, and now his journey home is doubtful. I believe our servant hunt is over for the present. Mary has intimated her desire to remain with us, for the twofold purpose of earning something for her journey home, and of preparing her parents for parting from her. The end to be accomplished is one that we shall be so glad to promote that I suppose we shall get over our other scruples, and if a good opportunity presented itself I should be glad to help her towards her passage money, that she might at once join her husband at home, who is in too good employment to think of coming out. I can fancy it is a terrible struggle to leave her parents, but the sooner it is over the better. Monday, March 9.--Mr. Toker came in to dinner to-day. He is going again to England next month, to make final arrangements, I fancy, for his marriage. House-building seems most in his head at present, as far as I could gather, but he is singularly bad to hear, and I had to give it up. School was the chief business of my morning. Tuesday, March 10.--There was a fall of snow last night that would have delighted us a fortnight ago. As it is it can but partially restore the roads, for the old foundation was quite gone, and the sun has such power now that what is not well trodden down disappears most rapidly. However, we have been getting more firewood drawn in to-day, and may do so perhaps for a few days longer, which is a good thing. Perchance, too, another fall may prolong the practicability of it. Mr. Toker left us again after breakfast. This gentleman, ..

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canadian Women in Print, 1750—1918 is the first historical examination of women’s engagement with multiple aspects of print over some two hundred years, from the settlers who wrote diaries and letters to the New Women who argued for ballots and equal rights. Considering women’s published writing as an intervention in the public sphere of national and material print culture, this book uses approaches from book history to address the working and living conditions of women who wrote in many genres and for many reasons. This study situates English Canadian authors within an extensive framework that includes francophone writers as well as women’s work as compositors, bookbinders, and interveners in public access to print. Literary authorship is shown to be one point on a spectrum that ranges from missionary writing, temperance advocacy, and educational texts to journalism and travel accounts by New Woman adventurers. Familiar figures such as Susanna Moodie, L.M. Montgomery, Nellie McClung, Pauline Johnson, and Sara Jeannette Duncan are contextualized by writers whose names are less well known (such as Madge Macbeth and Agnes Laut) and by many others whose writings and biographies have vanished into the recesses of history. Readers will learn of the surprising range of writing and publishing performed by early Canadian women under various ideological, biographical, and cultural motivations and circumstances. Some expressed reluctance while others eagerly sought literary careers. Together they did much more to shape Canada’s cultural history than has heretofore been recognized.

Download or read book The World of UCL written by Negley Harte and published by UCL Press. This book was released on 2018-05-21 with total page 179 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From its foundation in 1826, UCL embraced a progressive and pioneering spirit. It was the first university in England to admit students regardless of religion and made higher education affordable and accessible to a much broader section of society. It was also effectively the first university to welcome women on equal terms with men. From the outset UCL showed a commitment to innovative ideas and new methods of teaching and research. This book charts the history of UCL from 1826 through to the present day, highlighting its many contributions to society in Britain and around the world. It covers the expansion of the university through the growth in student numbers and institutional mergers. It documents shifts in governance throughout the years and the changing social and economic context in which UCL operated, including challenging periods of reconstruction after two World Wars. Today UCL is one of the powerhouses of research and teaching, and a truly global university. It is currently seventh in the QS World University Rankings. This completely revised and updated edition features a new chapter based on interviews with key individuals at UCL. It comes at a time of ambitious development for UCL with the establishment of an entirely new campus in East London, UCL East, and Provost Michael Arthur’s ‘UCL 2034’ strategy which aims to secure the university’s long-term future and commits UCL to delivering global impact.
