The Annals of a Border Club; and Biographical Notices of the Families Connected Therewith by George Tancred Pdf

This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1899 edition. Excerpt: ... The full-dress winter dinner of the Club took place on the 18th of January, 1899, at 7.3o p.m. The Marquess of Lothian occupied the chair, and the Earl of Dalkeith, M.P., was croupier. The business of the meeting was transacted before the dinner hour. Three names of candidates were enrolled for ballot when vacancies should occur. Captain Tancred of Weens intimated in the name of the committee of management that the funds of the Club were in a prosperous condition; the cellar was well stocked with wine, and the Club consisted of its full complement of members. After this announcement, Mr Pott of Knowesouth and Captain Tancred expressed their wish to retire from the committee of management. They were elected for this office in 1867, and have held it ever since. After dinner, the Marquess, on rising to return thanks to his toast as chairman, took the opportunity to express his pleasure at the flourishing state of the Club, which, he remarked, was founded by his grandfather, and in which, he said, he took the warmest interest, and hoped it would continue to prosper.

Militarism, Hunting, Imperialism by J.A. Mangan,Callum McKenzie Pdf

The late Victorian and Edwardian officer class viewed hunting and big game hunting in particular, as a sound preparation for imperial warfare. For the imperial officer in the making, the ‘blooding’ hunting ritual was a visible ‘hallmark’ of stirling martial masculinity. Sir Henry Newbolt, the period poet of subaltern self-sacrifice, typically considered hunting as essential for the creation of a ‘masculine sporting spirit’ necessary for the consolidation and extension of the empire. Hunting was seen as a manifestation of Darwinian masculinity that maintained a pre-ordained hierarchical order of superordinate and subordinate breeds. Militarism, Hunting, Imperialism examines these ideas under the following five sections: martial imperialism: the self-sacrificial subaltern ‘blooding’ the middle class martial male the imperial officer, hunting and war martial masculinity proclaimed and consolidated martial masculinity adapted and adjusted. This book was published as a special issue of the International Journal of the History of Sport.

Third Duke of Buccleuch and Adam Smith by Brian Bonnyman Pdf

The third duke of Buccleuch (17461812) presided over the management of one of Britain's largest landed estates during a period of profound agrarian, social and political change. Tutored by the philosopher Adam Smith, the duke was also a leading patron of the Scottish Enlightenment, lauded by the Edinburgh literati as an exemplar of patriotic nobility and civic virtue, while his alliance with Henry Dundas dominated Scottish politics for almost 40 years. Combining the approaches of intellectual, economic and agrarian history, this book examines the life and career of the third duke, focusing in particular on his relationship with Adam Smith and the improvement of his vast Border estates, assessing the influence of Enlightenment thought on agricultural revolution. In its exploration of the cultural as well as the economic roots of Improvement and in its assessment of a previously unappreciated aspect of Smith's career, this book has appeal for both specialist scholars and general readers interested in the Scottish Enlightenment and the culture of Improvement in 18th-century Scotland.

Romantic Drama by Frederick Burwick Pdf

Drama in the Romantic period underwent radical changes affecting theatre performance, acting, and audience. Theatres were rebuilt and expanded to accommodate larger audiences, and consequently acting styles and the plays themselves evolved to meet the expectations of the new audiences. This book examines manifestations of change in acting, stage design, setting, and the new forms of drama. Actors exercised a persistent habit of stepping out of their roles, whether scripted or not. Burwick traces the radical shifts in acting style from Garrick to Kemble and Siddons, and to Kean and Macready, adding a new dimension to understanding the shift in cultural sensibility from early to later Romantic literature. Eye-witness accounts by theatre-goers and critics attending plays at the major playhouses of London, the provinces, and on the Continent are provided, allowing readers to identify with the experience of being in the theatre during this tumultuous period.
