Boulogne : bridgehead for the landing in England during the winter of 1745-46 ; In the context of the War of the Austrian Succession (1744-48), the rulers of France envisaged a ‘descent' upon England. The aim, at Versailles, was to threaten London by deploying a small French army in Kent. The year 1745 was marked by the French plan to set the Jacobite Pretender, James Stuart (putatively ‘King James IIF), ashore in England. On 12th June 1745 his son Charles Edward (‘the Young Pretender’), embarked on a frigate at St Nazaire, escorted by a French naval warship. Landing on the Scottish coast, Charles defeated an English army at Prestonpans, near Edinburgh. Moving south, he reached Derby, 30 leagues from London, on 4th December. Meanwhile the preparations at Boulogne for a landing in England were going well. A council of war met at Dunkirk, with the Count of Aunay, Francois Bart, the royal officers Lally and Walsh, and the councillor to the French king, Charron, in attendance, on 4th December. They decided to launch a new expedition, mounted from Boulogne, to support the landing in Scotland by Prince Charles Edward, now the replacement for James Edward, who was deemed too old for the adventure. The French authorities, it seemed, had decided on a serious effort, having concentrated 30,000 troops under command of the Duc de Richelieu between Dunkirk and Boulogne. Shipping was amassed in ports stretching from Blankenberge to St Valery - sur-Somme. A hundred vessels, requisitioned in Normandy, were directed to Boulogne. From December 1745 to March 1746 the French battle fleet sat in the port of Le Havre. The objective was to disembark a force of twelve battalions - some 6,000 soldiers -in southern England. In the end, however, the project was abandoned.

George Desnoyer first danced in London in 1721 and 1722, and returned to pursue a successful performing career there between 1731 and 1742. He may have been born around 1700 in Hanover, for he was the son of the dancing master ‘Denoyé’ employed by Georg Ludwig Elector of Hanover (later King George I of England) from at least 1694. 1 Musicians named ‘Desnoyers’ can be found in Paris records from the 1650s. 2 The elder Desnoyer may have been related to Antoine Desnoyers, who was a member of the ‘violons de la Chambre’ at the court of Louis XIV from at least the late 1670s until about 1694. 3 He may also have been the Desnoyers who danced in the 1689 and 1690 revivals at the Paris Opéra of Lully's Atys and Cadmus et Hermione respectively. 4 Whatever his lineage, George Desnoyer was already a skilled exponent of French belle dance style and technique when he first appeared in London, at the Drury Lane Theatre, early in 1721. Desnoyer's father died on 18 April 1721, and he was presumably appointed to succeed him for he left England during the summer of 1722 to become dancing master to George I's grandson Prince Frederick, who had remained in Hanover. His appointment at the electoral court formally ended early in 1730, and the following year Desnoyer returned to London. He was billed as ‘first dancer to the King of Poland’ when he appeared at Drury Lane in late 1731, and for the next few years he divided his time between London, Dresden and Warsaw. Desnoyer's London career lasted until 1742. Over the years, he performed solos, duets and group dances as well as appearing in a variety of afterpieces, and he enjoyed notable partnerships with several leading female dancers. Although virtually all the choreographies he performed are lost, there is much other evidence to shed light on Desnoyer's dancing style and technique. I have documented the lives and careers, as dancing masters, of George Desnoyer and his son Philip elsewhere. 5 In this article I will explore and analyse George Desnoyer's repertoire during his first two periods in London, 1721–1722 and 1731–1733. In a second article, I will look at his repertoire and his dancing partnerships between 1734 and his retirement from the London stage in 1742. 6

With the notable exception of Scotland, Queen Victoria was never very enthusiastic about her kingdoms of the “Celtic fringe.” During the sixty-four years of her reign, Victoria spent a healthy seven years in Scotland, a mere seven weeks in Ireland, and a paltry seven nights in Wales. Although there was little overt hostility, the nonconformist Welsh often felt neglected by the monarch and embittered by the queen's position as the head of the Church of England. Her Irish visits, however, were subject to more open opposition by stalwart republicans. Her visit to Dublin in 1900 was accompanied by embarrassing incidents and coercive measures to ensure the pleasant reception and safety of the monarch.The reign of King Edward VII was notable for its warmer attitude toward Wales and Ireland, but this transformation in the relationship between the monarchy and the nations of the “Celtic fringe” reached its most clear expression with the 1911 investiture of the Prince of Wales during the reign of his son, King George V. The press considered the ceremony to be more important than any other royal visit to the Celtic nations and publicized it widely in the United Kingdom and British Empire. The organizers of the event erected telegraph offices at the site of the ceremony, and the railways established special express trains running from Caernarfon to London that were equipped with darkrooms in order to send stories and photographs of the event directly to the newspapers of Fleet Street.

Stanley Keith Runcorn was born in 1922 in Southport, Lancashire, the son of a monumentalmason of staunch Congregationalist persuasion. He was educated at the King George VGrammar School, where his strongest subjects were history and mathematics. When in thesixth form his headmaster persuaded him to take science subjects, and he was subsequentlyawarded a State Scholarship to study at Cambridge University. At an early age his father hadtaken him to a small local observatory, encouraging his interest in astronomy. On the sportingside, in spite of his later interest in rugby he refused to play the game at school and insteadconcentrated on swimming. Under his captaincy his house regularly won the swimming trophy. Runcorn showed an early interest in religious and cultural matters, which was to stay with him throughout his life. He attended a Methodist Sunday school and for some time provided a Sunday evening service for his sister and grandmother while his parents attended church. He read extensively and went to London on his own, visiting museums and architectural landmarks. Later, while at Cambridge, he developed a love of music. In 1940 he entered Gonville and Caius College at Cambridge to read electrical engineering. After graduating in 1943 he commenced research at the Royal Radar Establishment (RRE), remaining there until the end of the war. During his time at the RRE he was confirmed into the Church of England.

Raja Rammohan Roy has been called various things, from the first Indian liberal and a ‘maker of modern India’ to one who could bring about little more than a caricature of promised transformation. That Roy saw himself as a subject of the English King is much less analysed. The following essay takes this self-perception of Roy as a ‘British subject’ as a clue to develop a twofold problematic on the nature of religion and law in Roy’s lifetime, that is, between the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century. (a) We emphasize the importance of the King of England, and the importance of Kingship in which religion and law cannot be disentangled. This is established through an examination of the institutional arrangements in relationship to Kingship in the British Isles and the subcontinent, a study of S. T. Coleridge’s On the Constitution of the Church and State (London: Hurst, Chance and Co., 1830) and John Austin’s Province of Jurisprudence Determined (Delhi: Universal Publishers, 2012), amongst lesser known texts. (b) From an investigation into this religio-political constitution, we will explore the other dimensions opened up in Roy’s self-perception as a subject, that is, the relationship between religion, law and public reason in colonial India. By Roy’s ‘public hermeneutics’, we mean his arguing in the public medium of print as much as for a public (the colonial state and the reading public). But we also mean his use of reason in a sustained fashion so as to critique social and legal conditions. His arguments in structural and substantive terms, as we show, allow one to re-think the relationship between religion, law and universality.

BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disease that leads to joint damage, systemic inflammation and early mortality. Though the precise molecular mechanism in the triggering immune response are not fully understood, the emergence of antibodies against self-antigens can serve as diagnostic biomarker. Multiple antigens have been confirmed. However, the profiling of serum antigen, antigenome, remains poorly known.ObjectivesThe study aimed to investigate the serum antigenomic profiling and determine potential diagnostic biomarkers using label-free proteomic technology implemented with machine-learning algorithm.MethodsWe captured serum antigens from a cohort consisting of 60 RA patients (45 ACPA-positive RA patients and 15 ACPA-negative RA patients), sex- and age-matched 30 osteoarthritis patients and 30 healthy controls. Liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) was performed. We then trained a machine learning model to classify RA, ACPA-positive RA and ACPA-negative RA based on proteomic data and validated in the cohort.ResultsWe identified 62, 71 and 49 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) in RA, ACPA-positive RA and ACPA-negative RA respectively, compared to OA and healthy controls. Among these DEPs, the pathway enrichment analysis and protein-protein interactions networks were conducted. Three panels were constructed to classify RA, ACPA-positive RA and ACPA-negative RA using random forest models algorithm based on the molecular signature of DEPs, whose area under curve (AUC) were calculated as 0.9949 (95% CI = 0.9792-1), 0.9913 (95%CI = 0.9653-1) and 1.0 (95% CI = 1-1).ConclusionThis study presented serum antigen profiling of RA. Among them, three panels of antigens were identified to classify RA, ACPA-positive and ACPA-negative RA patients as diagnostic biomarkers.References[1]Smolen JS, Aletaha D, McInnes IB.

RESUMENEl año 2021 se ha cumplido el VIII centenario del nacimiento del rey Alfonso X, acontecimiento que tuvo lugar en la ciudad de Toledo el 23 de noviembre de 1221. Nos encontramos ante la figura de uno de los reyes medievales hispanos de mayor relevancia, tanto por las ideas políticas innovadoras que intentó aplicar, aunque no lo consiguió, como, sobre todo, por la gran actividad intelectual que bajo su patronazgo se llevó entonces a cabo y que le ha merecido el apelativo de Sabio como es conocido. Son muchos los historiadores que, desde distintas ópticas (el Arte, el Derecho, la Astronomía, la Música, la Literatura, etcétera) se han acercado a su figura, lo que ha repercutido en que contemos con una bibliografía muy numerosa y de una gran variedad temática. Palabras clave: Historiografía, Imperio alemán, Partidas, Cantigas, Toledo.Topografía: Castilla y León.Periodo: siglo XIII ABSTRACTThe year 2021 has been the eighth centenary of the birth of King Alfonso X, an event that took place in the city of Toledo on November 21, 1221. We are faced with the figure of one of the most important Hispanic medieval kings both for the innovative political ideas that he tried to apply, although he did not succeed, as, above all, because of the great intellectual activity that took place under his patronage then and that has earned him the nickname of Wise as he is known. There are many historians who, from different perspectives (Art, Law, Astronomy, Music, Literature, etc.) have approached his figure, which has resulted in our having a very numerous bibliography and a great thematic variety.

This chapter focuses on the role of Harry T. Burleigh's wife and family in his career as an “eminent baritone.” Due to his success in singing for the English royal and noble families, Burleigh returned to perform in England the following summer, but it also led to his wife's determination to create an identity distinct from her role as the wife of “the eminent baritone.” In fall 1909 Louise took their son Alston to England, where she placed him at Malden College for Boys just outside London. Then, assuming the stage name of Princess Redfeather, she “played in her own Indian Act in London music halls.” After the “real” Princess Redfeather, Princess Tsianina Redfeather, appeared and demanded that Louise must find another stage name, Louise became Ojibway Princess Nadonis, and later Princess Nadonis Shawa. This chapter considers Louise Alston Burleigh's separation from Harry and her decision to pursue a career as a performer in New York City, with particular emphasis on her American Indian presentations and her joint recitals.

The creation of ‘Great Britain’ by the 1707 Act, under Queen Anne, united England and Scotland. The prolific poet and pamphleteer Daniel Defoe travelled to Scotland to promote the Union with poems such as The Caledonian and his journal The Review, and he celebrated it in his lengthy History of the Union of Great Britain. Because of lax oversight of local government in Scotland by the London Westminster Parliament, Jacobite supporters of King James and his son ‘the Old Pretender’ found sympathizers, which would result in the Jacobite Rising of 1715

IN DECEMBER 1688, THE authority of King James VII, Scotland’s last Catholic ruler and most self-consciously ‘absolute’ monarch, collapsed. As recently as the summer, James’s government had seemed strong. The political instability convulsing his southern kingdom of England, where James had prosecuted seven bishops for refusing his commands, had no visible parallel in Scotland. North of the Tweed, the king’s highly innovative policies – religious toleration, the promotion of Catholicism and systematic intervention in local government – were unchallenged. But in November, the invasion of southern England by William of Orange, James’s Dutch nephew and son-in-law, quickly undermined the government in Scotland. Despite gathering his army to confront William’s forces on Salisbury Plain, James failed to resist the invaders, withdrawing to London on 23 November....

This chapter begins with the burning of the Globe Theatre on 29 June 1613 and comments on the play being performed there, Henry VIII. This play’s ending looks forward to the reign of King James and creates the image of ‘phoenix’. The discussion circles back to James’s poem Phoenix, and its final anticipation of Ludovic Stuart, the 9-year-old son of Esmé. On his arrival in Scotland, Ludovic assumed his father’s title as Duke of Lennox. He followed James to England and served him as a major confidant, becoming a kind of ‘phoenix’. The chapter includes a brief discussion of Lennox’s participation in a variety of political and cultural events. It closes with Two Noble Kinsmen, which, with its funerals and wedding, points toward the events of 1613.

The son of a Congregational minister in the north of England, W. T. Stead was largely taught at home by his father, and experienced conversion during the religious revival of 1859–62. In 1870, at the age of 22, he was appointed editor of the Darlington Northern Echo, and over the next decade he made the newspaper a powerful voice of the Nonconformist Conscience in the north of England. For Stead, the editor’s desk was a ‘pulpit’ from which to preach to a congregation of thousands. He played a leading role in the ‘Bulgarian atrocities’ agitation of 1876–8, calling for British intervention to end the massacres of Christians in the Ottoman Empire and becoming a fervent supporter of the Liberal politician, William Ewart Gladstone. Through the enigmatic Russian, Madame Novikoff, Stead was introduced into London cultural circles and embraced what would be a lifelong love of Russian cultures and peoples.

In the freezing winter of 1659–60 an army marched south from Scotland. Under the command of General George Monck, its men made ‘their Beds upon the Ice’ and travelled ‘over Mountains of Snow, to redeem their Countrey’.¹ In England the republican regime that had existed for over a decade since Charles I’s execution was in crisis. Oliver Cromwell, the man who had held the regime together, was dead and his son and successor, Richard, had failed to unite the different political and military groupings who were striving for power. Monck, the regime’s military commander in Scotland, decided to intervene and set out on the long journey to London. Monck’s arrival in the English capital with his soldiers proved pivotal to the republic’s demise and led to the restoration of the Stuart monarchy in May 1660. Monck’s military strength, based on his careful management of his army’s interests, enabled him to bring about a pro-monarchist parliament, who invited the exiled Charles II to return to England as king....

Abstract Our first clear sighting of the historical Chaucer is in the late 1350s, when he appears as a retainer, probably a page, of Elizabeth de Burgh, Countess of Ulster and wife of Lionel, son of King Edward III. Lionel was involved in the English invasion of France in September 1359; at one point in this campaign Chaucer was captured, but soon ransomed. During the peace negotiations at Calais in October 1360, the prince paid him for carrying letters from there to England, which may mark the beginning of his career as international courier and diplomat. When he reappears from the mists of the period 1360–6, Chaucer may well be going about the royal family’s business: he is named as the recipient of a safe conduct through Navarre. In 1366 his father, a prosperous London wine merchant, died. And by 12 September of the same year he had married a certain ‘Philippa’, usually identified as Philippa de Roet, whose family (or at least father) had come to England from Hainault with Edward’s Queen Philippa.

Abstract Thomas More (c.1477–1535) lived as a brilliant polemicist and Lord Chancellor of England but died for refusing to assent to the Act of Supremacy, which declared King Henry VIII Supreme Head of the Church in England (see controversies). According to an act of Parliament (1534: 26 Henry VIII, c. 13), such refusal constituted high treason. Recounting the trial and execution, William Roper, his son-in-law, depicts Thomas More as a new kind of martyr, as one who died for the unity of the Catholic faith. Largely ignoring the Lord Chancellor who burned books and heretics, Roper’s account energetically counters the emergent Protestant martyrology created by John Bale and John Foxe. His Thomas More, loyal Wrst to God then king, is Wt to join St Thomas the Apostle and St Thomas Becket in the holy triumvirate of the Tres Thomae, ‘three Thomases’ (T. Stapleton, Douai, 1588). The selections below show More’s conviction and equanimity, his Xashes of wit and learning, and his profound humility in the service of God. Such qualities have made his story a mixture of high tragedy, saint’s life, and myth, compelling from its beginnings up through modern times in Robert Bolt’s moving adaptation, A Man for All Seasons.

Abstract Wilhelm Friedrich Herschel, eventually Sir William, was born in 1738 in Hanover, the son of a musician, in whose profession he was trained. At the age of 19 he travelled to England and soon established himself as a composer, conductor, teacher, and church organist in Bath. In 1766, he began to take a deep interest in astronomy and before long had built his own reflecting telescope. For this purpose he ground his own mirrors, fashioned from speculum, an alloy of copper and tin. Every spare moment, even during the intervals of concerts, Herschel would hasten to his workshop to put in a little time on his mirrors. The Astronomer Royal of the day, Nevil Maskelyne, invited to examine Herschel’s telescope in Bath, pronounced it superior to any in London. Before long Herschel had made a series of discoveries, above all that of a new planet, Uranus. He wanted to call it Georgium in honour of George III, but this was vetoed by the Royal Society. Herschel’s fame spread and soon the King summoned him to Windsor as his house astronomer. The two Hanoverians hit it off at once, and the King remained a faithful patron. During his career Herschel constructed at least 400 telescopes with his own hands. He searched the heavens and came upon many nebulae, which he rightly conjectured to consist of clusters of stars. He discovered two moons orbiting his planet, Uranus, and he was the first to observe the existence of double-stars—two stars conjoined in orbit about their common centre of mass.

The accession of Charles I exacerbated the tensions experienced between monarch and Parliament under James I and Herbert’s courtly career gradually faded following the deaths of the duke of Buckingham and earl of Pembroke. Chapter 13 examines Herbert’s attempts, after his return from France, to secure noble title, appointment to the Privy Council, and payment of his long-overdue allowances. It explores his efforts, as old age approached, to retain a place for himself among the rising stars at court, carve out a role for himself as a member of the Council of War, avoid active involvement in parliamentary criticism of the royal prerogative, offer occasional (unsolicited) advice to the king, and reassert his authority in county government in Montgomeryshire and Shropshire. It looks at his extensive remodelling of Montgomery Castle to provide a fashionable country house appropriate to his rank, his use of prestigious rental properties in London, and his efforts to increase the income derived from his neglected estates in England, Wales, and Ireland. It charts his difficult relationship with his wife and adult children and neglect of his patriarchal responsibilities, including his failure to marry his daughter and his longstanding dispute with his eldest son, Richard, over his allowance, debts, and inheritance of his mother’s estates. It briefly probes Herbert’s unsuccessful attempt to remarry in the late 1630s.
