Back to the Future With Seneca’s Practical Philosophy in Mind
An Examination of Career Readiness Among Music Education Doctoral Alumni
The purpose of this research was to examine recent doctoral music education alumni perceptions of how their doctoral programs informed their current work. We placed a specific focus on how the curricular, scholarly, and experiential facets of music education doctoral programs have transferred to graduates’ current positions. Participants ( N = 74) completed a researcher-designed survey based on previously conducted research that consisted of thre…
Fearing Meningitis: Disease, Emotions and the Spotted Fever Epidemics of 1904-1907
The meningitis (or spotted fever) outbreaks (c.1904-1907) caused worldwide alarm but remain largely forgotten. This article uses these outbreaks as an invaluable case study for understanding early twentieth-century responses (individual and collective) to a mysterious, potentially deadly infection. More specifically, it focuses on the social production of fear until physicians and medical scientists devised new ways of making meningitis more mana…

Refusal to Eat: A Century of Prison Hunger Strikes . By Nayan Shah
The history of hunger striking is fast becoming a well-trodden area of study. There exist numerous articles and book-length studies of specific countries such as India, Ireland or Northern Ireland. In the past decade, my own research, which focuses on the ethics and experiences of force-feeding has explored hunger striking across the twentieth century, with a focus on Britain and Ireland. Kevin Grant’s 2019 book, Last Weapons, adopts a transnatio…
‘A Fruit of the Art of Fire’: The Glass Industry in Britain
This chapter aims to provide an overview of glass manufacture in Britain, with a focus on its transition from craft-working status in the sixteenth century to the industrial mass production of the nineteenth century. It uses evidence for innovation from archaeological investigations, especially below-ground remains of furnaces, to illustrate the development and progress of the industry not otherwise recorded. This includes the shift from wood to …
A Further Phase of Archaeological Investigations at Swalwell Ironworks, Tyne and Wear
Archaeological Research Services Ltd carried out an archaeological excavation of part of the 18th-century Swalwell Ironworks near Gateshead during the summer of 2016 in advance of a redevelopment of the site by Lidl UK. This explored a part of the ironworks immediately to the west of a previous excavation directed by Pre-Construct Archaeology in 2005, and has contributed significant detail to the overall record of this important ironworking site.…
Elizabeth A. Williams. Appetite and Its Discontents: Science, Medicine and the Urge to Eat, 1750–1950
In Appetite and Its Discontents: Science, Medicine and the Urge to Eat, 1750–1950, Elizabeth A. Williams explores the changing ways that scientists and medical experts have understood and conceptualized human appetite. The book illuminates how scientists and physicians treated the stomach and its appetites almost as a battlefield. Appetite, a sensation distinguished from hunger by Williams, remained largely elusive and unknowable, meaning that ex…
Ending the ‘Cult of the Broken Home’: Divorce, Children and the Changing Emotional Dynamics of Separating British Families, c. 1945–90
From the 1960s, rising divorce rates forced a re-thinking of family dynamics beyond the nuclear. Traditionally, experts and the public had presumed that children from 'broken homes' typically drifted into juvenile delinquency and crime. Children of divorce were blamed for a plethora of social problems. The increasingly common nature of divorce meant that this model was no longer sustainable. Post-war children of divorce were more likely to be fra…
Silence, distance and neutrality: The politics of emotional distress during the Northern Irish troubles
During the Troubles (1968–1998), the mental healthcare profession surprisingly paid little attention to conflict-related psychological distress, despite Northern Irish citizens being embroiled in a protracted, emotionally damaging conflict. Only a small number of independent researchers spoke out to insist that conflict was causing widespread emotional disorder. While some mental health professionals have retrospectively ascribed this situation t…
Progress in Psychoanalysis: Envisioning the Future of the Profession
Kevin Grant. Last Weapons: Hunger Strikes and Fasts in the British Empire, 1890-1948
Numerous studies exist on hunger strikes waged during the suffragette campaign, the Irish War of Independence, the Troubles, and other periods of socio-political unrest. Only recently have scholars adopted cross-comparative approaches to explore the interplay among hunger strikes staged in different time periods and national contexts. As well as shattering a myth popular among the Irish that hunger striking belongs almost exclusively to their pol…
Michael Dwyer. Strangling Angel: Diphtheria and Childhood Immunisation in Ireland
In Strangling Angel: Diphtheria and Childhood Immunization in Ireland, Michael Dwyer charts the history of diphtheria in Ireland with a strong focus on the controversies that arose when immunization was introduced in the early twentieth century. In nineteenth- and twentieth-century Ireland, diphtheria was rampant. At times, it was the most fatal of childhood diseases. The Irish government proved to be far more enthusiastic about launching nationa…
Bedwetting, Doctors, and the Problematization of Youth in Britain and America, c.1800–1980
This article traces the evolution of medical ideas about bedwetting. Whereas nineteenth-century doctors saw it as a bad behavioral habit, their twentieth-century counterparts considered it a more problematic condition linked to deeper, psychological problems. Approaches to bedwetting moved away from techniques of habit adjustment and physical interventions toward a deeper assessment of personality and mind. The case study of bedwetting reveals mu…

Starving to death in medical care: Ethics, food, emotions and dying in Britain and America, 1970s–1990s
Recent controversies about prisoner force-feeding have renewed debates on the ethical appropriateness of feeding individuals against their will. Critics condemn force-feeding as it seems to clash with prevailing bioethical principles of patient autonomy which grant patients the right to refuse medical treatment (or food) if they wish. This article uses contemporary history to highlight the complex development of policies on supported feeding in r…

Ékpè ‘leopard’ society in Africa and the Americas: Influence and Values of an Ancient Tradition
The Ékpè ('leopard') society represents an ancient African institution that had provided the supreme functions of governance in the communal societies of the forest regions of the Cross-River basin and the hilly terrain to the east. With the colonial intervention in the late nineteenth century, the emergence of modern individualism and western political systems has tended to ignore the important roles which Ékpè played in the past, leading in som…
Cuban Abakuá Chants: Examining New Linguistic and Historical Evidence for the African Diaspora
The Cuban Abakuá society-derived from the Èfik Ékpè and Ejagham Úgbè societies of southeastern Nigeria and southwestern Cameroon-was founded in Havana in the 1830s by captured leaders of Cross River villages. This paper examines the process by which West African Ékpè members were able to understand contemporary Cuban Abakuá chants, and indicates how these texts may be used as historical documents. This methodology involves first recording and int…

A Dangerous Revolutionary Force Amongst Us’: Conceptualizing Working-Class Tea Drinking in the British Isles, c . 1860–1900
Historians of nineteenth-century British tea consumption have highlighted the function of the substance as an index of middle-class civility and marker of national identity. In this article, I maintain that concerns about tea drinking were equally prominent throughout the late Victorian period. As medical practitioners increasingly intervened in food matters, apprehension about the physiological and psychological consequences of increasing access…
Feeding in the Workhouse: The Institutional and Ideological Functions of Food in Britain, ca. 1834–70
How adequate was the mid-Victorian workhouse diet? Basing their arguments on modern nutritional analyses of dietary tables, some historians have concluded that the workhouse diet fulfilled the basic nutritional needs of inmates and that the idea that workhouse dietary regimes were inadequate is the result of a “mythology” created by contemporaries—including Charles Dickens. In these accounts, Dickens's infamous scene where Oliver Twist becomes so…

I will explore the manner by which re…
Necessary Torture? Vivisection, Suffragette Force-Feeding, and Responses to Scientific Medicine in Britain c. 1870-1920
One of the primary aims of late nineteenth-century laboratory experimentation was to ground understandings of illness and disease within new regimes of science. It was also hoped that clinical practice would become increasingly complemented by discoveries and technologies accrued from emergent forms of modern medical enquiry, and that, ultimately, this would lead to improved diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that could be applied to a wide va…

Voice of the Leopard: African Secret Societies and Cuba
This book shows how African migrants and their political fraternities played a formative role in the history of Cuba. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, no large kingdoms controlled Nigeria and Cameroon's multilingual Cross River basin. Instead, each settlement had its own lodge of the initiation society called Ékpè, or "leopard," which was the highest indigenous authority. Ékpè lodges ruled local communities while also managing regi…

Representations of suicide in urban North-West England c.1870–1910: The formative role of respectability, class, gender and morality
In the late-Victorian period in England, attitudes towards suicide were complex. The existence of secular viewpoints encouraged compassionate attitudes to such deaths by characterising suicide as a result of mental illness or as a natural response to harsh socio-economic conditions. Yet, in contemporary society, traditional forms of cultural and moral condemnation continued to influence perceptions of self-destruction. This article examines attit…

The Nature of the Beasts: Empire and Exhibition at the Tokyo Imperial Zoo
It is widely known that such Western institutions as the museum, the university, and the penitentiary shaped Japan’s emergence as a modern nation-state. Less commonly recognized is the role played by the distinctly hybrid institution—at once museum, laboratory, and prison—of the zoological garden. In this eye-opening study of Japan’s first modern zoo, Tokyo’s Ueno Imperial Zoological Gardens, opened in 1882, Ian Jared Miller offers a refreshingly…
