Abstract:
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the education of children at St Helena Penal Establishment in Queensland and the trials faced by the educators that delivered their formal schooling. The paper will add to the growing research into the prison island and will provide an insight into a unique facet of education in the newly established Australian State of Queensland. Design/methodology/approach – The historical analysis draws on original documents and published works to chronicle the provision of education to the children of warders at the St Helena Penal Establishment.

Abstract. The construction of an electronic data set of the tidal measurements made at St. Helena in 1761 by Nevil Maskelyne is described. These data were first analysed by Cartwright (1971, 1972) in papers which have importance within studies of changing tides. However, Cartwright's data files were never archived for the benefit of other researchers, demonstrating that “old data” at risk can sometimes take the form of electronic rather than paper records. In the present paper, the newly digitised Maskelyne data have been reanalysed by several techniques in order to obtain an updated impressio

Virtually no rock lobsters were found in St Helena Bay sanctuary, probably because of periodic harmful algal blooms. Abundance was greater in Saldanha Bay sanctuary than in adjacent fished areas, but only once in two years. Sizes were, however, larger in this sanctuary than the fished areas. By an order of m

Abstract:
In the past, numerous stratovolcanoes worldwide witnessed catastrophic flank collapses. One of the greatest risks associated with stratovolcanoes is a massive rock failure. On 18 May 1980, we witnessed a rock slope failure due to a volcano eruption, and a 2185.60 m high rock slope of Mount St. Helens was collapsed. Thus, from the serviceability perspective, this work presents an effective computational technique to perform probabilistic analyses of Mount St. Helens situated in Washington, USA.

The spectrum of the generalized fractal dimensions, i.e. Dq versus q, extracted from the data, allows us to identify two main earthquake time distribution patterns. The first one exhibits a multifractal clustering correlated to the intense seismic swarms of the dome building activity. The second one is characterized by an almost co

The article deals with the iconography of the illustration of the Second Paschal Homily of St. Gregory of Nazianzus on fol. 285r of the Paris manuscript. It questions the identity of the woman saint represented on the right of St. Paraskeve in the lower register of the scene. Unlike that above St. Paraskeve, the inscription identifying this second woman saint is fragmentary and difficult to read, but it has been widely accepted that she is Saint Helena, mother of the Emperor Constantine the Great. On the basis of two other representations of Helena in the same manuscript and of the style of th

Abstract:
During an overnight ringing expedition to the Oceanodroma storm-petrel colony on Egg Island, St Helena in July 2009, a White-faced Storm-petrel Pelagodroma marina was found on the ground under an open mist net. The bird was easily captured and close examination in the hand, together with subsequent inspection of photographs, showed that the bird was recently fledged. Biometrics and timing of fledging preclude provenance from the closest colony on the Tristan da Cunha archipelago and the pristine nature of the plumage render an origin from the northerly colonies of Cape Verde or the Selvagens I

Abstract:
The paper conducts analysis and compares the images of saints in neohagiographical texts by Evelyn Waugh and Boris Zaytsev. It shows that the key moment in both novels is the subject of vocation. The image of St. Sergius and the image of St. Helena are similar not only in terms of Christian values but in “northern” type of temperament, which is expressed in such personality traits as restraint, emotional distance, asceticism. B. Zaitsev's neohagiographical text is based on the role of tradition in the Orthodox picture of the world; in E. Waugh's neohagiography the personal-subjectivist factor

Abstract Golden everlasting paper daisies (Xerochrysum, Gnaphalieae, Asteraceae) were some of the earliest Australian native plants to be cultivated in Europe. Reputedly a favourite of Napoléon Bonaparte and Empress Joséphine, X. bracteatum is thought to have been introduced to the island of St Helena in the South Atlantic during Napoléon’s exile there. Colourful cultivars were developed in the 1850s, and there is a widely held view that these were produced by crossing Xerochrysum with African or Asian Helichrysum spp. Recent molecular phylogenetic analyses and subtribal classification of Gnap

В статье рассматриваются символические структуры наполеоновского мифа, касающиеся пребывания свергнутого императора на острове Св. Елены. Устойчивый символический комплекс, сложившийся в европейской поэзии, проник в русскую поэзию, которая осмысляла его по-своему, одно перенимая практически без изменений, другое категорически отвергая. Рассмотрение ряда известных поэтических текстов первой четверти XIX - первой трети XX вв., позволило показать преемственность образов, сформировавших в русской поэзии данную часть наполеоновского мифа.
