Mulleady, Geraldine. "Published works in support of doctorate of letters." Thesis, University of East London, 1996. http://ethos.bl.uk/OrderDetails.do?uin=uk.bl.ethos.532396.
Full textAbstract:
The applicant's research has led to a substantial body of published work and 17 pieces from this work are submitted here. Of these, eight are in peer refereed journals testifying to the importance of the body of work submitted. The work has attracted external funding of £73,000 from North West Thames Regional Health Authority which attests further to the quality of the work undertaken. In addition the applicant's expertise in the area has been recognised internationally by her appointments as World Health Organisation Advisor (Guidelines on Counselling of HIV Infected and AIDS Patients; Intravenous Drug Use and Risk of HIV Infection) and as UK representative to the Commission of the European Communities (Prevention of AIDS for Intravenous Drug Users) and she has presented evidence to a Home Office Working Party (Advisory Council on the Misuse of Drugs) and acted as academic referee for several academic journals including AIDS, AIDS Care, and Addiction. The submitted research publications are based upon five studies drawing upon 623 injecting drug users (idus) surveyed between 1985 and October 1992. The demographic characteristics of the clients included in each of the studies did not vary substantially between studies. Three of the studies involved evaluation of interventions for harm minimisation and two of those included designs of innovative interventions. The remaining two were aimed at identifying trends in risk - related behaviours and risk reduction. The body of work with its regular data collection over a seven year period from one location in the UK charts the behavioural changes and service responses from a point in time when AIDS awareness among idus was virtually non-existent through the response to the awareness of risks of sharing injecting equipment, followed by the introduction of needle exchange schemes and their evaluation, awareness of sexual transmission risks and need for sexual counselling, provides a unique perspective. The first and the final study had longitudinal components but the over all behavioural and attitudinal trends are identified from cross-sectional data. The approach taken by the research was to place risk-related behaviours within a context of the idus' social lifestyles rather than isolating behaviours from the contexts in which they occur. This approach contrasts with the individualistic social-cognitive models that have been used by others rather unsuccessfully to try to account for health related risk behaviours. The aims of the research were to obtain accurate information about the behaviours of idus with specific reference to HIV transmission related behaviours especially injecting practices and sexual behaviours by (1) identifying the characteristics of idus attending a drug dependency unit and/or syringe exchange unit in Central London (2) examining the sexual and drug-related behaviours of clients attending those services and their risks for HIV infections.

Hannaford, Graham. "A good sheep run. Letters from New South Wales in Scottish newspapers between 1820 and 1850 with potential to influence decisions on emigration." Thesis, Federation University Australia, 2020. http://researchonline.federation.edu.au/vital/access/HandleResolver/1959.17/174359.
Full textAbstract:
The primary aim of this thesis is to contribute to ongoing historical research into migration to and settlement in Australia by Scots. It achieves this by identifying and examining letters sent from the colonies in New South Wales which were printed in historic Scottish newspapers between 1820 and 1850. In examining the material, this thesis argues that the letters had potential to influence emigration decisions by Scots. The study shows some of the ways in which New South Wales was reported in the Scottish press and compares those reports with conditions in Scotland at the time. The comparisons and analyses of the letters, with consideration of their authors and likely readers as well as the newspapers in which they were printed demonstrate that the letters did have potential to influence emigration decisions. Its particular contribution to knowledge arises from demonstrating how mostly private letters which became publicly available through publication in newspapers had potential to influence emigrants’ decisions about moving to Australia. Rather than claiming direct evidence of the publication of particular letters as having influenced emigration, it shows how reporting of conditions in Australia when set into a context of contemporary events and conditions in Scotland had potential to influence decisions. It is grounded in the body of historical research about colonial Australia and sits within this Australian historiographical context. Given the motivations and attractions of Scots to colonial Australia this thesis also engages with techniques and theoretical approaches associated with Scottish diaspora studies, an area of research that often emphasises other Scottish migration patterns to Canada, New Zealand and the USA. When considered together both of these historiographical approaches lend themselves to primary source material analysis and a methodological approach that this doctoral study uses to examine the motivations of Scots who migrated to colonial Australia.<br>Doctor of Philosophy

Ogden, Rebecca Lee Jensen. "Merit Beyond Any Already Published: Austen and Authorship in the Romantic Age." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2010. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/2417.
Full textAbstract:
In recent decades there have been many attempts to pull Austen into the fold of high Romantic literature. On one level, these thematic comparisons are useful, for Austen has long been anachronistically treated as separate from the Romantic tradition. In the past, her writings have essentially straddled Romantic classification, labeled either as hangers-on in the satiric eighteenth-century literary tradition or as early artifacts of a kind of proto-Victorianism. To a large extent, scholars have described Austen as a writer departing from, rather than embracing, the literary trends of the Romantic era. Yet, while recent publications depicting a “Romantic Austen” yield impressive insights into the timeliness of her fiction, they haven't fully addressed Austen's participation in some of the most crucial literary debates of her time. Thus, it is my intention in this essay to extend the discussion of Austen as a Romantic to her participation in Romantic-era debates over emergent literary categories of authorship and realism. I argue that we can best contextualize Austen by examining how her model of authorship differs from those that surfaced in literary conversations of the time, particularly those relating to the high Romantic myth of the solitary genius. Likewise, as questions of solitary authorship often overlap with discussions of realism and romance in literature, it is important to reexamine how Austen responds to these categories, particularly in the context of a strictly Romantic engagement with these terms. I find that, though Austen's writing has long been implicated in the emergence of realism in literature, little has been written to link this impulse to the earlier emergence of Romantic-era categories of authorship and literary creativity. I contend that Austen's self-projection (as both an author and realist) engages with Romantic-era literary debates over these categories; likewise, I argue that her response to these emergent concerns is more complex and nuanced than has heretofore been accounted for in literary scholarship.

Full textAbstract:
Il regesto delle lettere derobertiane rappresenta un opera scientifica da cui non possono prescindere filologi e storici della letteratura italiana. Manca ancora un epistolario derobertiano unificato e sistematico. Il presente lavoro di ricerca tenta di colmare l assenza di un repertorio non ancora interamente inventariato e catalogato, di un regesto complessivo dei carteggi, fin qui editi, per la ricostruzione cronologica di un patrimonio prezioso ed eccezionale che, nell insieme, permette di accedere all autobiografia quotidiana di tutta un esistenza, ad una intimità divenuta di dominio pubblico, alla cronistoria fedele e romanzata di una vita straordinaria ed egualmente normale e a un disegno biografico attendibile ed esauriente di un epistolografo sorprendente come Federico De Roberto. La lettura del regesto ha pertanto il fascino del saper documentare e fare emergere una nuova esegesi della vita e dell intero corpus letterario di Federico De Roberto.

Full textAbstract:
Through the life and work of James Crossley, this thesis explores the important and often neglected significance of middle-class power and influence in the nineteenthcentury industrial city of Manchester. Born in the first year of the century, Crossley can be considered a paradigm of one section of a class divided along political and sectarian lines. He was a lawyer by profession, and a 'Church and State' Tory by inclination. After successive defeats, political ambitions gave way to antiquarian and especially literary interests, which he pursued in common with an influential network of other like-minded individuals. It is principally in this area that he made a significant contribution to the cultural maturation of the burgeoning city, and achieved the highest recognition during his lifetime. The principal topics investigated in successive chapters, through manuscript and printed sources, are: 1) Education and early literary interests. 2) The beginnings of a lifelong friendship with William Harrison Ainsworth, many of whose novels depended on source material provided by Crossley. Early literary journalism in Blackwood's Magazine and the Retrospective Review. 3) Legal training, the formation of the Manchester Law Association. 4) Political affairs, particularly in opposition to the Charter of Incorporation. 5) Dickens's visits, the expansion of Manchester's cultural infrastructure, including the Athenaeum Club 6) The growth and importance of publishing societies in the nineteenth century. Crossley's role in shaping and maintaining the Chetham Society. 7) The founding of the Manchester Free Public Library, Crossley's part in the selection and purchase of the stock, and the public recognition of this work. 8) The importance of the private collector in nineteenth-century literary research. Crossley's collection (particularly of the works of Daniel Defoe), and his influence on the work of contemporary bibliographers. 9) The Manchester man of letters, his accomplishments and status. It was concluded from this study that the life and achievements of James Crossley provide a valuable insight into the cultural development of Manchester in the nineteenth century.

Full textAbstract:
<p> As a struggling single mother separated from her dissolute husband, the poet Charlotte Smith (1749-1806) began writing novels as a way to make money for her family. The exploding book market of late eighteenth-century Britain teemed with booksellers and publishers—some anxious to hustle works to press, some seeking quality works to build their reputation—and Smith entered this male-centric realm with naïveté, shaky confidence, and growing desperation. Guided by a literary mentor to the reputable London publishing firm of Thomas Cadell, Sr., Smith entered a business relationship that would see her through the publication and later editions of two translated novels, three original novels, the two-volume poem <i>The Emigrants, </i> and a subscription and an expanded edition of her celebrated poetry and essay collection, <i>Elegiac Sonnets.</i> Most of the letters Smith wrote to Cadell have never been published; the majority of them were discovered just as Judith Phillips Stanton was taking her <i>Collected Letters of Charlotte Smith</i> (2003) to press. This scholarly edition includes every known letter that Smith wrote to Cadell before his retirement, when his son and assistant redubbed it Cadell & Davies. Compiled from university, public, and private libraries in Britain, the U.S., and New Zealand, these annotated letters offer an intimate portrait of Smith as entrepreneurial author, desperate businesswoman, and careworn single mother of nine children in an era of revolutionary (and counter-revolutionary) fervor, Empire building.</p>

Il libro scolastico, nella sua duplice fisionomia di supporto didattico e di prodotto editoriale e sociale, costituisce una preziosa fonte per la ricostruzione della storia pedagogica e didattica, culturale e politica dalla seconda metà del Settecento sino al primo ventennio del Novecento. Sulla base di questa premessa la tesi si propone di evidenziare la valenza educativa e didattica della letteratura scolastica per l’infanzia e il ruolo ricoperto dalla scuola nella formazione dei fanciulli italiani tramite l’analisi quantitativa e qualitativa dei principali libri di lettura editi in Lombardia tra Otto e Novecento.

Eckenroth, Lauren D. "Poet/ Editor/ Publisher: a catalogue and selected correspondence of H.D., Bryher, and Sylvia Beach, from 1918 to 1931." Thesis, 2020. https://hdl.handle.net/2144/41533.
Full textAbstract:
Poet/ Editor/ Publisher is an annotated edition of the selected correspondence of Sylvia Beach, publisher and owner of the Shakespeare and Company bookstore, the writer and editor Bryher (Annie Winifred Ellerman), and her partner, the poet H.D. (Hilda Doolittle). The years covered by this selection, 1918 to 1931, are some of the most prolific for these women and for modernism. Beach published James Joyce’s Ulysses, H.D. wrote several books of poetry and prose, Bryher established POOL Productions and Close Up, the first magazine devoted to film criticism, and much more.
The relationships fostered among H.D., Bryher, and Beach express an unconventional model for creative production—one more concerned with helping each other than making a profit. This model is expressed not only in Bryher’s publishing endeavors and financial support of Shakespeare and Company and other artists in her sphere, but also in the well-documented sacrifices Beach made to bring out Ulysses.
Chatty and endearing, the letters demonstrate the way these relationships passed seamlessly from social to professional and back again. They are full of gossip, but also valuable professional advice and encouragement. For Bryher and H.D., who lived in Territet, Switzerland, Beach provided an essential connection not only to a major center of avant-garde art, but also, and more practically, to the mechanisms of distributing modernist writing: publishers, editors, literary journals, and printers.
This dissertation joins a recovery of the work of women in the early twentieth century as well as a reconsideration of the roles each woman played in developing the modernist canon. These letters offer evidence of the influence of each woman’s efforts on an international network of artists and insight into the labor behind the great works of modernism.
