Abstract:

The mid-nineteenth century was a challenging and turbulent time for Irish theatres, with the 1840s being particularly difficult. The period saw a growing demand for recreation which resulted in a surge of improvements in Irish theatre infrastructure and concerted efforts of theatre managers to attract the public by providing a wide range of entertainment in cities and country towns. Irish audiences had access to a broad repertoire that embraced everything from Shakespeare and high opera to rude farce and low comedy, while developments in transport ensured that internationally renowned performe

Abstract:

In the 1840s, the new cultural discourse promoted by the young intellectual elite had a significant impact on society, with important political repercussions. Historians have noted that the final years of Mihail Sturdza’s reign were marked by tense acts of opposition. In this context, a newly uncovered incident from archival documents provides fresh insight into the opposition movements of the time. Ioan Poni, an actor at the National Theatre and a product of the mid-1840s cultural environment, publicly accused the authorities of abuses that had led to a person’s death. This moment is relevant

Abstract:

AbstractThe transition from shepherding to fencing in colonial Australia was a technological revolution replacing labour with capital. Fencing could not be widespread in Australia until an historical conjunction of technological, social and economic changes: open camping of sheep (from about 1810), effective poisoning of dingoes with strychnine (from the mid-1840s), introduction of iron wire (1840s), better land tenure (from 1847), progressive reduction of Aboriginal populations, huge demand for meat (from 1851) and high wages (from 1851).

Abstract:

This article analyses Western Australian pastoralists’ agitation for, and their expanding reliance upon, forced labour in the Avon valley in the 1830s and 1840s. I argue that coercive labour practices were already well established by the time the York Agricultural Society began lobbying for convict transportation in the late 1840s, and that this effort reflected a desire to intensify already existing patterns of unfree labour rather than a brand-new intervention. The shift to forced labour occurred soon after the settler conquest of Ballardong Noongar country facilitated the establishment of a

Abstract:

ABSTRACT:This article analyses the changing options for the provision of burial places between the Reformation and the mid-nineteenth century in two major provincial cities, Bristol and Exeter. The two cities experienced very different patterns of change, especially in their Anglican provision, reflecting medieval differences of organization as well as the differential impact of dissent. Common factors include the effect of epidemics (plague, cholera) and population pressure, but also great conservatism regarding use of inner-city burial places. The major changes are associated with the three

AbstractSeeking to establish the origins of Majālis al-Tujjār, the special mixed commercial courts of Alexandria and Cairo which existed from the mid-1840s until the mid-1870s, I examine whether the Majālis had their origin in Turkey or in Egypt; and whether or not they served foreign interests and were part of the capitulations system. The evidence of a legal case registered in the court records (sijillāt) of the Cairo court suggests that the Majālis, though established as a result of a concerted action of a number of European consuls general in Egypt, were not part of the capitulations syste

Abstract. The East Asian winter monsoon causes orographic snowfall over the windward side of the Japanese islands (facing the Sea of Japan and the northwesterly winter monsoon flow) and negative temperature anomalies around Japan. Daily weather information recorded in old Japanese diaries can provide useful information on the historical occurrences of snowfall days. Here, this information was combined with recently recovered early daily instrumental temperature data collected during the 19th century to reconstruct the occurrence of winter monsoon outbreak days (WMDs) from the 1840s to the earl

This article aimed to study the interactions between the Portuguese Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the national public health structures by analysing the institutional communications produced by the diplomatic entity on health issues at a specific historical moment in the mid-19th century. This research showed that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs played a paradoxical role in implementing public health policy in the 1840s and 1850s, when medical police dossiers were making relations with the international powers of the time more complex.

Precipitation levels in southern Africa exhibit a marked east–west gradient and are characterized by strong seasonality and high interannual variability. Much of the mainland south of 15°S exhibits a semiarid to dry subhumid climate. More than 66 percent of rainfall in the extreme southwest of the subcontinent occurs between April and September. Rainfall in this region—termed the winter rainfall zone (WRZ)—is most commonly associated with the passage of midlatitude frontal systems embedded in the austral westerlies.

It seeks to explore what led an individual whose Quaker coworshippers already accepted the wrongs of slavery to seek nonetheless a different path, one that she felt offered her a deeper bond between faith and action. What is clearest in examining the life of Post is that she was committed to finding a spiritual home that not only allowed her to pursue social justice on this earth, but also required her to do so.

By the mid-1840s, Joseph Smith, the religion’s prophet-leader, was killed, and thousands of Mormons relocated west to Utah. During the twentieth century, the Latter-day Saints returned to their former headquarters in Nauvoo, Illinois, in a dramatic way.

This chapter looks at how nineteenth-century biography picked up and transformed the image of the Romantic mad poet from earlier periodical criticism. This occurred first in brief lives and ‘cases of poetry’ in periodicals themselves, then in popular anthologies of the ‘infirmities of genius’, and finally in the larger narratives of poetic irrationality or anti-rationality presented in mid-Victorian literary biography. The chapter makes a particular case study of pivotal biographies in the 1840s, 1850s, and 1860s by Thomas Medwin, Thomas Jefferson Hogg, Thomas Love Peacock, Alexander and Anne

Abstract “Chapter 2: Mid-Century Alphabets and Waiting for the Revolution” follows the illustrated alphabet into Victorian print culture of the 1840s by focusing on the earliest issues of Punch and Henry Cole’s An Alphabet of Quadrupeds (1844). The periodical’s parodic nursery rhymes reinscribed textual literacy as a middle-class privilege while its “pictorial capitals” reflected a growing adult interest in elaborate alphabets and other neo-medieval visual forms, such as manuscript illumination. Design history shows complementary trends in print media marketed to children, and Henry Cole’s Hom

Abstract After the fierce political disputes of the 1840s, the American shadow presence began to manifest itself increasingly in English literature of the mid-Victorian period as a disruptive influence, an alternative centre of gravity. The burgeoning culture of the United States threatened to disturb both the imperial geography that would place foreign cultures in subordinate relation to Britain and the moralized forms of aesthetics that sought to equate such cartographies with a just and accurate portrayal of the world.
