Rodriguez, Benitez Rigoberto. "Sinaloa during the Restored Republic, 1867-1877". Diss., The University of Arizona, 2001. http://hdl.handle.net/10150/290323.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In Sinaloa, Mexico, the enforcement of the 1857 liberal constitution from 1867 to 1877 advanced political, economic and cultural successes, spawned conflict and provided the basis for the Porfiriato. This study provides explanations pertaining to crucial issues dealing with power, production and culture. In terms of politics, this work explains the empowerment of the republican state, the alienation of popular sectors, the rise of Porfirismo and political centralization; in economics, it describes the productive structure, emphasizing the mining export economy, and the informal financial market; and in the cultural arena, it discusses the building of the Sinaloan identity and the beginnings of a scientific and technological culture. The strengthening of the relationship between Sinaloa and the United States is also discussed. At the end of the French Intervention, the Sinaloan liberals launched initiatives to empower the state, stimulate the economy and extend education, but they met the resistance of the military, the import merchants and the central government. In spite of chronic conflict, production and trade grew, a regional identity was encouraged and the Sinaloans' secular culture was elevated. Furthermore, the increasing federal intervention in local political affairs alienated local liberal politicians, swelled the ranks of the Porfiristas, facilitated the triumph of the Tuxtepecan rebellion and weakened local interest in fighting for state sovereignty. Finally, during the Restored Republic, Sinaloa was the theater of a new relationship between Mexico and the United States, with the United States testing a new policy of economic expansionism which would subsequently flourish during the Porfiriato.

Trabut, Robin. "Le constitutionnalisme libéral (1814-1877)". Electronic Thesis or Diss., Toulon, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023TOUL0157.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Si l’expression n’est que très peu utilisée par les constitutionnalistes, l’idée d’un constitutionnalisme libéral imprègne, de fait, leurs raisonnements. Assez fréquemment d’ailleurs, la théorie de constitutionnalisme libéral se confond avec celle de parlementarisme, sur lequel des travaux importants existent déjà. Mais si l’on veut construire une histoire scientifique du constitutionnalisme, il faut cerner la notion de constitutionnalisme libéral. Le droit positif se trouve ainsi éclairé par l’histoire. Cette étude permet, tout en dégageant la théorie de constitutionnalisme libéral, d’apporter un éclairage juridique original sur nos institutionsAlthough the term is only rarely used by constitutionalists, the idea of a liberal constitutionalism does indeed permeate their reasoning. Moreover, the theory of liberal constitutionalism is confused with that of parliamentarianism, on which important works already exist. But if we want to build a scientific history of constitutionalism, we must define the notion of liberal constitutionalism. Positive law is thus clarified by history. This study makes it possible to shed an original legal light on our institutions, while at the same time defining the liberal constitutionalism’s theory

Brown, Melanie. "The creation of Huey P. Newton". FIU Digital Commons, 2002. http://digitalcommons.fiu.edu/etd/1877.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of this study was to examine the creation of Huey P. Newton, founder of the Black Panther Party in 1966. I argued that Huey P. Newton was a creation of several elements: the black ghetto of Oakland; the rise of Black Power and the death of non-violence in the civil rights movement; the New Left and its factions; and, the Black Panther Party through the "Free Huey" campaign. The "Free Huey" campaign that arose from Newton's imprisonment in 1968, constructed an iconic image of Newton that he inherited on his release in 1970. This study will contextualize Newton and refute the claims of Hugh Pearson, author of the 1994, The Shadow of the Panther, who deemed Newton as a common criminal, not worthy of historical debate.

Grobler, Marelize. "Towards a legal history of white women in the Transvaal, 1877-1899". Diss., University of Pretoria, 2009. http://hdl.handle.net/2263/27046.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation creates a background for studying white women in the Transvaal between 1877 and 1899. Legal documents are used as primary sources, as they are invaluable for researching women’s history, in that they provide a new perspective. When writing women’s history, it must be grounded in theory, as, especially when it comes to history in court cases, concepts like ‘history as performance’ and ‘occasionalism’ are significant. Of course, an eye must also firmly be held on concepts such as ‘gender’ and ‘deconstruction’, since it dictates how one should approach one’s sources. A history of the Transvaal is necessary, for when studying the court cases one must be able to position the women within a framework of their lives, and what type of living they made. Therefore, part of the dissertation is a political, but also social and economic, history of the Transvaal, written with specifically white women in mind. Sources for the socio-economic historical framework include literary accounts and secondary works on the period. The framework for the court cases further includes creating a legal stage on which to position women, which is accomplished by using legal sources like law reports, but also laws and resolutions. It is only once a detailed framework has been created that one can scrutinise court cases for issues surrounding white Transvaal women’s legal position, and agency. AFRIKAANS : Hierdie verhandeling skep die agtergrond vir ‘n studie van wit vroue in Transvaal tussen 1877 en 1899. Regsdokumente word as primêre bronne gebruik, aangesien dit van onskatbare waarde is in die ondersoek van vrouegeskiedenis, deurdat dit ‘n nuwe perspektief bied. Die skryf van vrouegeskiedenis moet in teorie gegrond wees, aangesien konsepte soos ‘history as a performance’ en ‘occasionalism’ belangrik is, veral wanneer dit kom by geskiedenis in hofsake. ‘n Ferm blik moet natuurlik ook gehou word op konsepte soos ‘gender’ en ‘dekonstruksie’ aangesien dit bepaal hoe die bronne benader moet word. ‘n Geskiedenis van Transvaal is nodig, want dit moet moontlik wees om vroue te posisioneeer binne die raamwerk van hulle lewens en die tipe bestaan wat hulle gevoer het. ‘n Gedeelte van die verhandeling behels derhalwe ‘n politieke, maar ook ‘n sosiale en ekonomiese geskiedenis van Transvaal, geskryf spesifiek met wit vroue in gedagte. Bronne vir die sosio-ekonomiese historiese raamwerk sluit verder in die skep van ‘n regsverhoog waarop die vroue geposisioneer kan word. Dit word daargestel deur gebruik te maak van regsbronne soos wetsverslae, asook wette en besluite. Eers wanneer so ‘n uitvoerige raamwerk gekonstrueer is, kan die hofsake bestudeer word vir kwessies rondom wit Transvaalse vroue se regsposisie, en hulle betrokkenheid by hulle eie agenda.

Ostergaard, Tyler Edward. "The beast within : the contested image of the railroad in French visual culture, 1837-1877". Diss., University of Iowa, 2014. https://ir.uiowa.edu/etd/2128.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Between 1837, when the first railraod were authorized by the July Monarchy, through the 1870s there were vociferous public debates on the utility of the train, large scale government funding for rail infrastructure, and notable depictions of the train in print, photography and literature. During this period there was also a notable - if currently unrecognized - dearth of painted depictions. This absence suggests that the Impressionists' paintings of the railroad in the 1870s were more than novel images of modern life, and provide evidence of the contested perception of the railroad, industrialization and aspects of modernization in the aftermath of l'année terrible that so far have been unaddressed by art historians and scholars of the nineteenth century.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Cette thèse est consacrée à Médéric Lanctôt (1838--1877), journaliste, essayiste, politicien canadien-francais. L'étude s'échelonne de la naissance de Lanctôt en décembre 1838 à son décès prématuré en juillet 1877. La méthode suivie jalonne les étapes majeures de la vie de Lanctôt, de ses débuts comme journaliste au Courrier de Saint-Hyacinthe à la fin de sa carrière à Hull. La thèse analysé les rapports qui existent entre le journaliste engagé et l'homme d'action dans la societé canadienne-francaise du XIX e siècle.
Le travail se veut une recherche de l'homme certes, mais aussi une quête sur les raisons qui ont amené certains historiens à l'identifier comme l'un des premiers idéologues à tenter de relier les problèmes socio-économiques à la question nationale. En d'autres mots nous souhaitons rapatrier les divers dossiers sur Lanctôt: le dossier ouvrier, associé à l'histoire du mouvement syndical; le dossier politique, lié à l'histoire constitutionnelle du Canada; le dossier économique, lié à l'histoire économique du pays; le dossier journalistique imbriqué dans l'histoire littéraire.
Méconnu peut-être à cause de ses écrits éparpillés dans l'univers ordonné du monde universitaire, Médéric Lanctôt mérite la révision de son cas pour qu'il soit enfin réhabilité et qu'il trouve sa juste place dans l'histoire intellectuelle du pays.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Alléer är ett landskapselement som består av både natur och kultur och som planterats av människan av olika skäl. Sveriges alléer minskar och därför önskar Trafikverket och Riksantikvarieämbetet ta fram ett nationellt underlag för alléer. I Östergötland saknas en sammanställning av alléer under historisk tid därför är studiens syfte att undersöka alléers utbredning och kontinuitet i Östergötland från 1868 fram till idag. Resultatet visade att alléer i länet ökat idag jämfört med perioden 1868–1877. Alléer har störst förekomst i slättbygden. Alléer vid gods- samt bruk hade förändrats minst från perioden 1868–1877 till idag vilket troligen beror på att alléer vid gods och bruk redan var vanliga under perioden 1868–1877. Infartsalléer till gårdar har ökat i bygderna sedan perioden 1868–1877 vilket kan kopplas till skiftesreformerna som förändrade landskapet under slutet av 1800-talet och gav upphov till alléplanteringar i länet. Hos dagens alléer är alléer med blandade trädslag främst förekommande.Avenues are a landscape element that consist of both nature and culture and that’s been planted by man for various reason. The Swedish avenues reduces because of that the Trafikverket and the Riksantikvarieämbetet wishes to develop a national basis for avenues. In Östergötland there is no compilation of avenues in historical time because of that the purpose of the study is to examine avenues spread and continuity in Östergötland from 1868 until today. Avenues has the greatest occurence in the flat country. Avenues belonging to manor or factory had changed least from the period 1868-1877 until today which is probably due to avenues belonging to manor or factory already was common under the period 1868-1877. Approach avenues leading to farms has increased in the districts since 1868-1877 which can be linked to the agriculture shiftreform that changed the landscape in the late 19th century and gave rise to avenue plantings in the county.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis examines the activities of the Statistical Society of London (SSL) and its contribution to early statistics-conceived as the science of humans in society-in Britain. The SSL as a collective entity played a crucial role in the formation of early statistics, as statisticians envisaged early statistics as a collaborative scientific project and prompted large-scale observation, which required cooperation among numerous statistical observers. The first three chapters discuss how the SSL shaped the concepts, practices, and institutions of statistical data production. The SSL demonstrated how the use of a hierarchical division of labour and blank form minimised observers' leeway to exercise individual observational skills and ensured uniformity in the production of statistical facts. This arrangement effectively depreciated first-hand observation in statistics and allowed statisticians to rely on the statistical facts collected by other people. It prompted the SSL to launch the Journal of the Statistical Society of London to serve as a virtual storage of observed facts where one could share their data for further aggregation and retrieve that of others for their analysis. The statisticians also engaged in contemporaneous discussion on the best mode of a statistical office with a view towards producing complete and internationally comparable statistical facts. The SSL's endorsement of the Belgian Central Statistical Commission model and the International Statistical Congress was intended to support the introduction of uniformity into statistical data at both the national and international levels. The last two chapters of this thesis discuss how the SSL's activities contributed to the historical formation of human sciences and the emergence of social scientists. Statisticians demanded the recognition of a scientific field which, independent from natural science, studied people as social beings and whose discourses moulded the treatment of the people they studied. The SSL's activities helped statisticians not only establish their scientific expertise but also develop their unique scientific ethos. Statisticians learnt not to trust their personal observations since individuals could see only a partial, and potentially distorted, picture of society. Instead, statisticians disciplined themselves to patiently wait for the accumulation of statistical facts and analyse data in their entirety because this was the only way, they believed, to truly understand the complex relationships people had with each other. The SSL's activities assisted statisticians' conception of statistical fact and produced a new kind of intellectual inquirer who patiently collected statistical facts as the basis of knowing and intervening in people's lives.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This dissertation concerns the ways in which a Chinese civilizing project intervened powerfully in cultural and social change in the Muslim-majority region of Xinjiang from the 1870s through the 1930s. I demonstrate that the efforts of officials following an ideology of domination and transformation rooted in the Chinese Classics changed the ways that people associated with each other and defined themselves and how Muslims understood their place in history and in global space. Chinese power is central to the history of modern Xinjiang and to the Uyghur people, not only because the Chinese center has dominated the area as a periphery, but because of the ways in which that power intervened in society and culture on the local level.
The processes and ramifications of the Chinese government in late-Qing and early Republican Xinjiang demonstrates strong parallels with colonialism in the context of European empire. This dissertation does not focus on the question of typology, however, but instead draws on methods from colonial history to explore the dynamics of a linguistically and religiously heterogeneous society. In order to do so, I draw on local archival documents in Chinese and Turkic and place them into dialogue with the broader Turkic-language textual record. This dissertation thus proceeds from the inception of the ideology that drove the civilizing project, through its social ramifications, to the innovations that emerged in Islamicate literature and history in Xinjiang in this period.East Asian Languages and Civilizations

Carroll, Frederick James. "Race News: How Black Reporters and Readers Shaped the Fight for Racial Justice, 1877--1978". W&M ScholarWorks, 2012. https://scholarworks.wm.edu/etd/1539623352.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Between 1877 and 1978, black reporters, publishers, and readers engaged in a never-ending and ever-shifting protest against American racism. Journalists' militancy oscillated as successive generations of civil rights activists defined anew their relationship with racism and debated the relevance of black radicalism in the fight for racial justice. Journalists achieved their greatest influence when their political perspectives aligned with the views of their employers and readers. Frequent disputes, though, erupted over the scope and meaning of racial justice within the process of reporting the news, compelling some writers to start alternative publications that challenged the assimilationist politics promoted by profit-minded publishers and middle-class community leaders.;This national network of news by, about, and for African Americans emerged in the late nineteenth century as the editor-proprietors of small, but widely circulated, newspapers defended the freedoms and rights gained during Reconstruction. In the early twentieth century, editors and publishers rushed to establish new publications aimed at African Americans leaving the southern countryside for urban industrial employment. Particularly in the North, many editors adopted militant editorial policies to win the loyalty of readers who might otherwise buy competing publications. During the interwar years, reporters and readers infused black journalism with an unprecedented racial militancy and political progressiveness by endorsing the politics and sensibilities of Harlem's radical orator-editors, New Negro authors and artists, and Popular Front activists. This style of racial advocacy extended beyond the restoration of civil rights as writers condemned Western colonialism, criticized American capitalism, and explored black separatism. During World War II, journalists' progressive outlook propelled black newspapers to their peak popularity and national influence.;By the early 1950s, the ascendancy of anticommunism moved publishers to jettison writers associated with the politics of anti-colonialism, anti-capitalism, and black separatism. They were replaced by younger journalists who accepted the narrower mission of fighting for domestic civil rights. In the 1960s, African Americans infuriated by the slow pace of desegregation accused commercial publishers of being too ready to compromise their militancy. Radical writers and editors tapped into this frustration by creating an alternative press that defined and debated the merits of Black Power. In the 1970s, journalists began to broaden the reach of black journalism by fighting to integrate white newsrooms. They ultimately transformed, albeit fitfully, how mainstream media covered and portrayed African Americans and other minority groups.;This dissertation complicates and challenges the historiography of black journalism. It supplants scholarship that depicts press protest as unchanging and driven by publishers by arguing journalistic agitation was continually reconceived by journalists and readers. It broadens the definition of who was a journalist by foregoing a narrow focus on the "black press" for a more inclusive examination of "black print culture." It characterizes black radicals and their publications as integral, not marginal, in shaping commercial black journalism. It argues the tenets of black journalism, while diluted, gained greater salience as black journalists integrated white-owned media.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This doctoral dissertation traces how the Red Cross Movement was able to gain a foothold on the Indian subcontinent and came to play an important part in colonial civil society and in the nation-building process from the last third of the nineteenth century onwards up until the end of the interwar period. Far from being at the mere receiving end, it suggests that India played a crucial role in shaping and making the Red Cross Movement. It argues that India became an important hub of transnational and international Red Cross humanitarianism in Asia. The developments on the subcontinent had deep regional, international and global repercussions and were crucial in transforming the Red Cross into a global movement From the last third of the nineteenth century onwards, Indians started to organise humanitarian missions and institutions to help their co-religionists and co-citizens, but also as an act of claiming citizenship and of stressing their role in the ethical community of humanity. Like the Swiss Red Cross founders, Indian intellectuals too constructed a moral universe couched in universal terms, yet it was rooted in their own moral, geographical and imagined spaces of allegiance and affection. It was based on pan-Asian, pan-Islamic and anti-colonial conceptions of a supranational ethical community. By the end of the interwar period, the different humanitarian initiatives culminated in a distinctively Indian Red Cross and Red Crescent tradition. It recast the Christian mid-nineteenth programme of civilising war into a pan-Asian, anti-colonial, anti-communal and anti-racial internationalist movement that had deep reverberations beyond the Indian locality. It was upon such a humanitarian tradition that Nehru's non-alignment policy was built. By reconstructing a distinct Indian Red Cross and Red Crescent tradition this dissertation attempts to de-centre the rigorously Eurocentric and institutional focus of the current body of research on the Red Cross movement and humanitarianism more generally. It enhances our understanding of the relationship between British imperialism, decolonisation, nation-building in Asia and international and transnational humanitarianism.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The purpose of this thesis is to look at the motivations behind the life and work of Caroline Chisholm, nee Jones, 1808-1877, and to ascertain why British historians have chosen to ignore her contribution to the nineteenth century emigration movement, while attending closely to such women as Nightingale for example. The Introduction to the thesis discusses the difficulties of writing a biography of a nineteenth century woman, who lived at the threshold of modernity, from the perspective of the twenty-first century, in the period identified as late modernity or postmodernity. The critical issues of writing a historical biography are explored. Chapter Two continues the debate in relation to the Sources, Methods and Problems that have been met with in writing the thesis. Chapters Three to Seven consider Chisholm's life and work in the more conventional narrative format, detailing where new evidence has been found. By showing where misinformation and errors have arisen in earlier biographies that have been perpetuated by subsequent biographies, they give specificity to the debate discussed in the Introduction. Chapters Eight to Ten discuss, in far greater depth than a conventional narrative format allows, the relevant political, religious and social influences which shaped and influenced Chisholm's life, and which facilitate an understanding of her motivation and character.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
"In this illuminating study, Steven E. Nash chronicles the history of Reconstruction as it unfolded in the mountains of western North Carolina. Nash presents a complex story of the region's grappling with the war's aftermath, examining the persistent wartime loyalties that informed bitter power struggles between factions of white mountaineers determined to rule. For a brief period, an influx of federal governmental power enabled white anti-Confederates to ally with former slaves in order to lift the Republican Party to power locally and in the state as a whole. Republican success led to a violent response from a transformed class of elites, however, who claimed legitimacy from the antebellum period while pushing for greater integration into the market-oriented New South.Focusing on a region that is still underrepresented in the Reconstruction historiography, Nash illuminates the diversity and complexity of Appalachian political and economic machinations, while bringing to light the broad and complicated issues the era posed to the South and the nation as a whole."--Amazonhttps://dc.etsu.edu/etsu_books/1116/thumbnail.jpg

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This study aims to understand the configuration of English Language discipline in Atheneu Sergipense College, between the years 1870 and 1877. The time frame corresponds to the year in which the Atheneu Sergipense College was created with the entry of the first English language teacher to the year it was set up and regulated the standards for the first entry exam in the chair of the discipline. Therefore, this research is based on the concepts of School Discipline according to Chervel (1990), School Culture of Viñao Frago (1994) and Juliá (2011), and curriculum by Goodson's (1997). Then we mapped the teachers of English discipline, namely: Justiniano de Mello e Silva and Ascendino Ângelo dos Reis in order to comprehendthe configuration of these teachers' work, their performances and contributions to consolidation of English language teaching in Atheneu Sergipense. Finally, we interpret the books worked in the institution as well as the contents, methods, approaches, intentions and authors. To carry out this research, we used as resources the minutes of the Atheneu Sergipense Congregation, the compendiums History of Rome by Goldsmith and Elementos de gramatica ingleza by Dr. Antonio Franco da Costa Meirelles, Public Instruction reports , the Atheneu Sergipense Regulations, Laws governing education in the period and the Journal of Aracaju. Finally, this research has enabled us to understand that the consolidation of English Language discipline in Atheneu Sergipense College was based on essentially grammatical approach over the years with the inclusion of conversational elements.O presente estudo tem como objetivo compreender a configuração da disciplina Língua Inglesa no Atheneu Sergipense, entre os anos de 1870 e 1877. O recorte temporal corresponde ao ano em que foi criado o Atheneu Sergipense com o ingresso do primeiro lente de Língua Inglesa até o ano em que foi instituído e regulamentado as normas para o primeiro concurso de ingresso na cadeira dessa disciplina. Para tanto, a pesquisa se apoiou nos conceitos de Disciplina Escolar, segundo Chervel (1990), Cultura Escolar de Viñao Frago (1994) e Juliá (2011), e currículo de Goodson (1997). Para alcançar os propósitos dessa pesquisa, inicialmente, buscamos entender como a disciplina de Língua Inglesa se estabeleceu no programa da Instrução Pública na Província de Sergipe, a seguir compomos um quadro do ensino secundário, no que se refere às finalidades para ensino da língua estrangeira, segundo a reforma Paulino de Souza de 1870. Em seguida, mapeamos os lentes da disciplina de Língua Inglesa, a saber: Justiniano de Mello e Silva e Ascendino Ângelo dos Reis a fim de perceber a configuração do trabalho docente desses lentes, suas atuações e contribuições para consolidação do ensino de Língua Inglesa no Atheneu Sergipense. Em seguida, interpretamos os livros trabalhados na instituição, bem como os conteúdos, métodos, abordagens, intencionalidades e autores. Nessa investida de pesquisa, tomamos como fontes as Atas da Congregação do Atheneu Sergipense, os compêndios History of Rome de Goldsmith e Elementos de grammatica ingleza do Dr. Antonio Franco da Costa Meirelles, relatórios da Instrução Pública, Regulamentos do Atheneu Sergipense, leis que regulamentam a educação no referido período e Jornal do Aracaju. Por fim, a investigação nos possibilitou compreender que as configurações da disciplina de Língua Inglesa do Atheneu Sergipense, se pautam numa abordagem essencialmente gramatical ao longo dos anos com a inserção de elementos de conversação.

Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2013.This investigation is aimed at providing a better understanding of William Milton’s influence on society in southern Africa over a period of more than thirty years. In the absence of any previous detailed work, it will serve to demonstrate Milton’s importance in restructuring the administration, formulating policy and imposing social barriers in early Rhodesia – factors that will contribute to the research undertaken by revisionist writers. It will also go some way towards answering Lord Blake’s call to discover exactly what the Administrator did and how he did it. Milton’s experiences at the Cape are seen as being essential to an understanding of the administration he established in Rhodesia. Through examining this link – referred to by historians but not as yet explored in detail – new knowledge will be provided on Rhodesia’s government in the pre-First World War period. The Cape years will offer insight into Milton’s working relationship with Rhodes and his involvement in the latter’s vision of the region’s social form and future. They will also shed light on Milton’s attitude towards people of colour. Cricket and rugby are key themes running through Milton’s life. The study will illuminate much about the creation of South African sport at a time when the public school games ethic was important in the nature of empire. Milton made an enormous but controversial contribution to the playing of the games, club culture, facilities, administration, international competition and who was eligible to represent South Africa.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The substantive content of this thesis is the data obtained from 30,000 individual census enumerators' records, transcribed from the census years of 1841, 1851, 1861 and 1871. The issues addressed include the size of the settlement, household size and structure, age profile and occupational structure. To facilitate comparison with the host population, a 10 per cent random sample of non-Irish households has been collected from the same census years and similarly analysed. In addition to quantitative evidence of the Irish settlement, a qualitative assessment has been made of the existence of an Irish community, considering such questions as what is meant by 'community', whether or not an Irish Community existed in the Township of Birkenhead in the period under review; did the Irish in Birkenhead conform to the popular, contemporary views of the Irish as violent, anti-social and concentrated in the lower income, labouring occupations? Attention has been paid to the question whether or not by the end of the period of study, the Irish in Birkenhead were integrated into local society or had been assimilated. In this context, the role of the Catholic Church in the shaping of an Irish Community has been examined.

L’histoire culturelle des dictionnaires a frayé un nouveau terrain de recherche des études des représentations. La rétroaction du sens figuré du mot chinois nous a dirigé vers ce présent travail visant aux représentations de la Chine dans les dictionnaires français. Avec l’histoire culturelle des dictionnaires comme cadre théorique principal, nos études se sont appliqués aux neuf dictionnaires dont les dates de publication couvrent une période de 250 ans. À travers les observations et les analyses sur la formation, le changement et la transmission des représentations de la Chine, nous avons découvert des influences complexes des multiples facteurs concernant les dictionnaires sur les représentations, et l’effet non négligeable au fil du temps des dictionnaires sur la formation des stéréotypes concernant la Chine dans la langue françaiseThe cultural history study of dictionaries has opened a new field for the research of representations. A retrospection of the extended meaning of the french word “chinois” led us to the present work about representations of China in french dictionaries. With the cultural history of dictionaries as the main theoretical framework, we have studied nine dictionaries whose publication dates cover 250 years. Through observations and analyzes on the formation, the change and the transmission of representations of China, we have uncovered complex influences of multiple factors about the dictionaries on representations, and the significant effect over time of dictionaries on the formation of stereotypes concerning China in the french language

This thesis examines the emerging concept of the unconscious mind in nineteenth-century psychiatric (alienist) and literary texts in Prance between 1821 and 1877. Its central objective is to reassess the relationship between alienist and literary discourses within the clearly defined contours of this concept, but without either imposing the structure of the psychoanalytic unconscious onto works to which this is alien, or reading pre-Freudian texts as though they revealed the 'Unconscious' - timeless and unchanging - hiding beneath another name.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis examines the life and poetry of the woman poet Gu Taiqing (1799-1877) within the context of a community of gentry women in mid-nineteenth century Beijing. This group of women was a "community" in the sense that their contact, sociability, friendship and poetry writing were meaningfully intertwined in their lives. The thesis is divided into three interconnected chapters. Two separate biographical accounts of Gu Taiqing's life---one centered around the relationship with her husband, and the second around her relationship with her female friends---are reconstructed in the first chapter. This biographical chapter underlines the importance of situating Gu in the women's community to understand her life and poetry. The second is comprised of a reconstruction of this women's community, delineating its members and distinctive features. In the third chapter, a close-reading of Gu's poems in relation to the women's community focuses on the themes of xian (leisure), parting, and friendship. This chapter shows how each of these themes are represented by Gu and how her representations are closely related to the experiences of this women's group.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
From the late 1830s Boer settlers conquered and settled vast new lands outside the Cape Colony. Although they more than doubled the area of European domination, historians have categorised Boer society outside the British colonies as primitive and dismissed the Boer conquests as an abberation from the broader process of European expansion. Such a distinction is no longer tenable. This study, which focuses on the Obrigstad/Lydenburg area, shows that the Boers were an integral part of European expansion in southern Africa. Settler expansion did not occur in a vacuum. Booming demand for commodities sparked economic growth across the sub-continent; the Boers were part of this process and consistently strove to produce for the region's expanding markets. In tandem with the expanding regional system, the Boer economy grew constantly. This was reflected in the centralisation of power in the Z.A.R. as Boer producers created formal political and administrative structures to further their economic interests. (A parallel process culminated in the Cape with colonists receiving representative government in March 1853.) This correlation between political and economic development was evident in the creation of a coercive labour system by the Boer state. Through their control of state structures, the Boers employed measures ranging from brute force to punitive taxation, legally enforceable contracts and pass laws to procure and control workers. It is important to note that the creation of a coercive labour system by the Boers paralleled similar developments in the Cape Colony. The speed with which the Boer economy expanded in comparison to the Cape, however, meant that stages in the development of an unfree labour force which had been chronologically distinct in the Cape coexisted within the Boer coercive system. Boer dependence on coerced labour made conflict with African groups inevitable. African groups in the eastern Transvaal had already been partly moulded by predatory economic forces emanating from the Portuguese settlements on the east coast since at least the 1750s. The arrival of the Boers in the 1840s greatly accelerated this process. Some groups were crushed, but others were able to obtain the means to resist Boer rule by interfacing with the settler economy. The economic forces which drove Boer settlement were thus not confined to the white settlers: Boer expansion was paralleled by the rise of African survivor states. The Dlamini, for example, built the powerful Swazi state by exchanging captives, ivory and cattle for guns and horses. Similarly, the Pedi, through the large scale expon of migrant labour, were able to acquire the means to challenge Boer authority in the late 1870s. Oearly then, the Boers 'Were not only representative of the wider settler social and economic order, but were acting in response to the same circumstances as the British settlers, Portuguese traders and African survivor states. It is thus impossible to continue to classify them as retrogressive and distinct from other groups in the region.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
In 1877 the University of St Andrews initiated a unique qualification, the Lady Literate in Arts, which came into existence initially as the LA, the Literate in Arts, a higher certificate available to women only. Awarded by examination but as a result of a programme of distance learning, it was conceived and explicitly promoted as a degree-level qualification at a time when women had no access to matriculation at Scottish universities and little anywhere in the United Kingdom. From small beginnings it expanded both in numbers of candidates and in spread of subjects and it lasted until the early 1930s by which time over 36,000 examinations had been taken and more than 5,000 women had completed the course. The scheme had emerged in response to various needs and external pressures which shaped its character. The purpose of this thesis is to assess the nature and achievements of the LLA in its first fifteen years and to establish its place within the wider movement for female equality of status and opportunity which developed in the later decades of the nineteenth century. The conditions under which the university introduced the LLA, its reasons for doing so, the nature of the qualification, its progress and development in the years before 1892 when women were admitted to Scottish universities as undergraduates and the consequences for the university itself are all examined in detail. The geographical and social origins and the educational backgrounds of the candidates themselves are analysed along with their age structure, their uptake of LLA subjects and the completion rates for the award. All of these are considered against the background of the students' later careers and life experiences. This thesis aims to discover the extent to which the LLA was influential in shaping the lives of its participants and in advancing the broader case for female higher education. It seeks to establish for the first time the contribution that St Andrews LLA women made to society at large and to the wider movement for female emancipation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This is a work of local history examining the course of Reconstruction in Collin County, Texas. National and state level surveys of Reconstruction often overlook the experiences of communities in favor of simpler, broader narratives. The work proceeds chronologically, beginning with the close of the Civil War, and tells the story of Collin County as national Reconstruction progressed and relies on works of professional and non-academic historians, oral histories, census data, and newspapers to present a coherent picture of local life, work, and politics. The results exemplify the value of local history, as local conditions influenced the course of events in Collin County as much as those in Austin and Washington D.C. The story of Reconstruction in Collin County is one of anomalous political views resulting from geographical exclusion from the cotton culture of Texas followed by a steady convergence. As Reconstruction progressed, Collin County began to show solidarity with more solidly conservative Texas Counties. The arrival of railroads allowed farmers to move from subsistence agriculture to cash crop production. This further altered local attitudes toward government, labor, voting rights, and education for Freedmen. By the end of Reconstruction, Collin County had all but abandoned their contrarian social and political views of the 1850s and 1860s in favor of limited rights for blacks and Redemption. The results show the importance of local history and how Collin County’s Reconstruction experience enriches and deepens how historians view the years after the Civil War. The author recommends further research of this kind to supplement broader syntheses.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
The first Bishop of Truro, Edward White Benson, saw the building of a Cathedral as the centre piece of his vision for Cornwall. The foundation stones were laid in May 1880, only three years after his enthronement. The building itself, the ability to raise money for it in impoverished Cornwall and the use of Cathedral Canons for training, education and mission for the whole diocese were intended to inspire faith and make the Cathedral the mother church for all Christians in Cornwall. The Cathedral revived an imagined vibrant medieval Church in Cornwall, some of whose saints were named in the Canons’ stalls and whose bishops, Benson believed, were his predecessors. Benson failed to unify Cornish people around this vision. Methodism was far too strong in Cornwall and remained so for many decades after he left Cornwall in 1883 to become Archbishop of Canterbury. Here Benson was no more successful implementing the vision on a wider stage. The state, not the church, became the umbrella organisation that started to reach everyone at local and national level. Nevertheless, Anglicanism in Cornwall did revive in Benson’s time and disagreements between Anglicans over styles of worship and other matters were partially sorted out by Benson, both as Bishop of Truro and as Archbishop of Canterbury. Benson’s interest in history further encouraged Cornwall’s interest in its Celtic past. An increasingly pluralistic culture enabled a reviving Anglicanism to take its place alongside Methodism in Cornwall, without ever coming close to replacing it. Shortly before Benson arrived in Cornwall, a Baptist minister suggested that the sturdy non-conformist people of Cornwall needed a Bishop no more than a duck needed an umbrella. Cornish people appreciated Bishop Benson and the Cathedral he helped to inspire. By and large they chose not to shelter under the umbrella of the Church of England. In the words of Edward Fish in a letter to the Royal Cornwall Gazette published on the 5 January 1877: “Looking around on this great Non-conformist county we did not need a bishop any more than a duck needs an umbrella. My statement as a Non-conformist is this, and I do but echo the opinion of thousands in the county, we do not need a bishop.”
