Two Poems By Swinburne: ‘Milton’ And On Wagner’S Music, Terry L. Meyers Jul 1993

Two Poems By Swinburne: ‘Milton’ And On Wagner’S Music, Terry L. Meyers

Arts & Sciences Articles

"In working on an edition of Swinburne's correspondence, I have in the last several years discovered two previously unknown poems by Algernon Charles Swinburne. One has existed for decades in the British Library's Ashley Collection, unrecognized probably because it survives in the form of a copy not in Swinburne's hand. The other, a signed holograph which I bought from a bookseller in Texas, has a provenance that is unknown. Swinburne appears to have wanted to publish both, though circumstances in each case made that infeasible..."

Swinburne Shapes His Grand Passion: A Version By ‘Ashford Owen.’, Terry L. Meyers Apr 1993

Swinburne Shapes His Grand Passion: A Version By ‘Ashford Owen.’, Terry L. Meyers

Arts & Sciences Articles

"That a blighted love lies at the heart of many of Swinburne's works has long impelled scholars and biographers to search for details as to the who, the where, and the when of the affair. The first candidate was nomi- nated by Edmund Gosse and Thomas James Wise and was supposed to be a young miss, a Jane "Boo" Faulkner. Her candidacy, however, withered under the scrutiny of John Mayfield and Cecil Y. Lang, and a substitute was found: the poet's first cousin Mary Charlotte Julia Gordon Leith (1840-1926), a writer who married a military man, Col. Robert William Disney …

The Richmond Junto And Politics In Jacksonian Virginia, Wade Lee Shaffer

Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects

This dissertation offers the first full-length study of the Richmond Junto and its role in shaping politics in Virginia between 1815 and 1845. The Junto led the Jacksonian movement in Virginia and worked successfully to keep the state allied with the Democratic party of andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren until the early 1840s.

Daniel, andrew Stevenson, William H. Roane, and Richard E. Parker, epitomized the state's response to the turbulent …


Buying Into The World Of Goods: Eighteenth-Century Consumerism And The Retail Trade From London To The Virginia Frontier, Ann Smart Martin Jan 1993

Buying Into The World Of Goods: Eighteenth-Century Consumerism And The Retail Trade From London To The Virginia Frontier, Ann Smart Martin

Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects

This is a study of the cultural problem of consumerism. It examines the complex, rich, and multi-varied world of consumer goods in eighteenth-century Anglo-America, when traditional notions of hierarchy were increasingly challenged by new patterns of social and geographical mobility and changing measures of human worth. It was also a time when more and more consumer goods came into the lives of average men and women.;Few historians have scrutinized the role of those goods or the means and motives for their acquisition. Objects become an important part of the story of consumerism, however, by examining affordability (commodities and value), availability …
