William Vernon Harcourt (politician)
Sir William George Granville Venables Vernon Harcourt (14 October 1827 – 1 October 1904) was a British lawyer, journalist and Liberal statesman. He served as Member of Parliament for various constituencies and held the offices of Home Secretary and Chancellor of the Exchequer under William Ewart Gladstone before becoming Leader of the Opposition. A talented speaker in parliament, he was sometimes regarded as aloof and possessing only an intellectual involvement in his causes. He failed to engender much emotional response in the public and became only a reluctant and disillusioned leader of his party.
Family and ancestry
Harcourt was the second son of the Rev. Canon William Vernon Harcourt, of Nuneham Park, Oxford and his wife Matilda Mary Gooch, daughter of Colonel William Gooch. His father was himself the fourth son and eventually heir of Edward Harcourt, Archbishop of York and his wife Lady Anne Leveson-Gower. Anne was a daughter of Granville Leveson-Gower, 1st Marquess of Stafford and his second wife Lady Louisa Egerton. Her maternal grandparents were Scroop Egerton, 1st Duke of Bridgewater and his second wife Rachel Russell. Rachel was a daughter of Wriothesley Russell, 2nd Duke of Bedford and the rich heiress Elizabeth Howland, daughter of John Howland of Streatham. William was therefore born a Vernon, and by his connection with the old families of Vernon and Harcourt was related to many of the great English houses, a fact of which he was proud. In later life his descent from the Plantagenets was a joke among his political opponents.

Sir William (horse)
Sir William was a champion racehorse. He was the winner of the 1838 Grand Liverpool steeplechase, later to be known as the Grand National. Only three runners took part, with the previous year's winner, The Duke, sent off as 1/2 favourite. He finished last of the three in the race. The winner was ridden by Irishman, Alan McDonough.

William Barrow (Jesuit)
Blessed William Barrow (alias Waring, alias Harcourt) (1609 – 30 June 1679) was an English Jesuit, executed as a result of the Popish Plot, a fabricated story. He is a Catholic martyr, beatified in 1929. By a papal decree of 4 December 1886, this martyr's cause was introduced, but under the name of "William Harcourt". This is the official name of beatification.
Life
He was born in Lancashire. He made his studies at the Jesuit College, St. Omer's, and entered the Society of Jesus at Watten in 1632. He was sent to the English mission in 1644 and worked on the London district for thirty-five years, becoming, in the beginning of 1678, its superior.
On the outbreak of the Plot, Barrow was one of the most sought-after of the alleged plotters, although his use of the name Harcourt caused the Government great confusion, as for no clear reason, several other Jesuits also used it. He went into hiding in London, and for several months eluded capture. Finally, in May 1679, he was arrested and committed to Newgate on the charge of complicity in the plot brought against him by Titus Oates. The trial, in which he had as fellow-prisons his colleagues, Father Thomas Whitebread, John Fenwick, John Gavan, and Anthony Turner, commenced on 13 June 1679.

Nationalist Parties - Professor Vernon Bogdanor FBA
Between 1886 and 1914, British politics was dominated by the Irish Question, and the Irish nationalist party exerted considerable pressure on British governments. Since 1974, the rise of the SNP has brought the Scottish Question into the forefront of British politics, and in 1998, legislation provided for devolution to the non-English parts of the United Kingdom. There remain, nevertheless, strong pressures for Scottish independence, and in Wales there is a lively nationalist party, Plaid Cymru. How is the rise of nationalist parties to be explained?

Queen Victoria - Professor Vernon Bogdanor
Queen Victoria was the first constitutional monarch. http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/queen-victoria During her reign the power of the monarchy declined but its influence grew. When Victoria came to the throne, the monarchy was probably less popular than at any time since the seventeenth century. By the end of her reign, it had been raised to a level of prestige and affection which it has never lost. The Crown had become the symbol not only of British nationhood but also of Empire. How did this come about?

Liberal Party (UK)
The Liberal Party was a liberal political party which was one of the two major parties in the United Kingdom in the 19th and early 20th century. The party arose from an alliance of Whigs and free-trade Peelites and Radicals in the 1850s. By the end of the nineteenth century, it had formed four governments under William Gladstone. Despite splitting over the issue of Irish Home Rule, the party returned to power in 1906 with a landslide victory and introduced the welfare reforms that created a basic British welfare state. H. H. Asquith was Liberal Prime Minister between 1908 and 1916, followed by David Lloyd George whose premiership lasted until 1922 when the coalition the party had formed with the Conservative Party in World War I came to an end.

Folio (368 × 235 mm). Contemporary mottled calf, red morocco label, red sprinkled edges, rebacked preserving most of the original spine, tips restored. Engraved portrait by Martin Droeshout above the verses To the Reader on verso of the first leaf, title with fleur-de-lis device (McKerrow 263), double column text within typographical rules, woodcut initials. Minor occasional light browning, a few tiny burn-holes, small tear with loss to margins of Gg3, Rr6, Uu3, *Ddd6, 3E4 and 3Y2 (not affecting text), slight staining to 3B5 with short tear at lower margin (not affecting text), a few other tiny oil and other stains, the condition generally very good, and a notably tall, well-margined copy.
Fourth folio, and the last of the 17th-century editions of Shakespeare's works, edited by John Heminge (d. 1630) and Henry Condell (d. 1627), the seven plays added by Philip Chetwin (d. 1680), publisher of the Third Folio. A reprint of the ill-fated Third Folio, this edition was issued by Henry Herringman in conjunction with other booksellers, and has three settings of the title-page. Of the seven additional plays, also included in the Third Folio, only Pericles is today recognised as the work of Shakespeare. In common with the Third, the Fourth Folio dropped the final “e” from Shakespeare's name, a spelling that persisted until the beginning of the 19th century.
The printer of the Comedies has been identified from the ornaments as Robert Roberts. Although this is the only edition in which each play does not start on a fresh page, it is in a larger fount and more liberally spaced than the three earlier editions. (The two pages of L1 are set in smaller type, presumably after the discovery that some text had been omitted.) The Fourth Folio remained the favoured edition among collectors until the mid-18th century, when Samuel Johnson and Edward Capell argued for the primacy of the First Folio text.
Provenance: The lawyer and politician Simon Harcourt, first Viscount Harcourt (1661?–1727), his bookplate affixed to verso of title, thence by descent (armorial bookplate of Edward William Vernon Harcourt (1825–1891) on front pastedown). Simon Harcourt was the only son of Sir Philip Harcourt (d. 1688), the landowner and politician of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, and his first wife, Anne (d. 1664), the daughter of Sir William Waller of Osterley Park, Middlesex. In a distinguished political career he became Queen Anne's solicitor-general on 30 May 1702, subsequently promoted to attorney-general in 1707 after his close involvement in the negotiations for the Union with Scotland. He became lord chancellor in April 1713.

Simon Harcourt was the only son of Sir Philip Harcourt (d. 1688), the landowner and politician of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, and his first wife, Anne (d. 1664), the daughter of Sir William Waller of Osterley Park, Middlesex. In a distinguished political career he became Queen Anne's solicitor-general on 30 May 1702, subsequently promoted to attorney-general in 1707 after his close involvement in the negotiations for the Union with Scotland. He became lord chancellor in April 1713.

Between 1886 and 1914, British politics was dominated by the Irish Question, and the Irish nationalist party exerted considerable pressure on British governments. Since 1974, the rise of the SNP has brought the Scottish Question into the forefront of British politics, and in 1998, legislation provided for devolution to the non-English parts of the United Kingdom.
There remain, nevertheless, strong pressures for Scottish independence, and in Wales there is a lively nationalist party, Plaid Cymru. How is the rise of nationalist parties to be explained?

Queen Victoria was the first constitutional monarch.
http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/queen-victoria
During her reign the power of the monarchy declined but its influence grew. When Victoria came to the throne, the monarchy was probably less popular than at any time since the seventeenth century. By the end of her reign, it had been raised to a level of prestige and affection which it has never lost. The Crown had become the symbol not only of British nationhood but also of Empire. How did this come about?

The Liberal Party was a liberal political party which was one of the two major parties in the United Kingdom in the 19th and early 20th century.
The party arose from an alliance of Whigs and free-trade Peelites and Radicals in the 1850s. By the end of the nineteenth century, it had formed four governments under William Gladstone. Despite splitting over the issue of Irish Home Rule, the party returned to power in 1906 with a landslide victory and introduced the welfare reforms that created a basic British welfare state. H. H. Asquith was Liberal Prime Minister between 1908 and 1916, followed by David Lloyd George whose premiership lasted until 1922 when the coalition the party had formed with the Conservative Party in World War I came to an end.

Jousting is a pastime only permitted to knights, who are of noble birth, but Thatcher wins and decides to continue his new pursuits. With the help of his two fellow squire friends Wat and Roland (Alan Tudyk and Mark Addy) and none other than the gambling-addicted Geoffrey Chaucer (Paul Bettany), Thatcher has soon adopted a false identity and is winning one joust after another on his way to a championship in London. His victories inspire the affection of a female fan, Jocelyn (Shannyn Sossamon), and the ire of a competitor, Count Adehmar (Rufus Sewell), but Thatcher's ruse is threatened with exposure.

"In the continual remembrance of a glorious past individuals and nations find their noblest inspiration"
- Sir William Osler, The Leaven of Science, Philadelphia, May 21st 1894.
Sir William Osler was the most famous physician in the English speaking world at the time of his death in 1919.
Besides a notable tendency to buffoonery, Osler had no especially important talents as a youngling. He was a regular student in many ways but had had the good fortune of being duly influenced by a succession of peculiarly positive personalities. As we trace his life through a revealing 70 years, we witness how a mischievous 'bad boy' from the backwoods in Canada would rise to occupy the most respected chair of medicine in the world.
All throughout his life Osler was apt to adorn himself with the noblest of qualities. A pious priest in the temple of Asclepius, he spoke from both heart and head, and it is the humanising influence of his lectures that continue to quicken the doctors pulse today. The importance of Osler's contributions as an internist, educator, pathologist, historian, and humanist have been well documented. He continues to inspire modern generations of doctors to become good physicians.

Or alternatively on our U.S. site here: https://www.peterharringtonbooks.com/william-shakespeare/comedies-histories-and-tragedies-6/103745/
Presented by Adam Douglas, Senior Specialist in Literature at Peter Harrington Rare Books - http://www.peterharrington.co.uk & http://www.peterharringtonbooks.com/
Folio (368 × 235 mm). Contemporary mottled calf, red morocco label, red sprinkled edges, rebacked preserving most of the original spine, tips restored. Engraved portrait by Martin Droeshout above the verses To the Reader on verso of the first leaf, title with fleur-de-lis device (McKerrow 263), double column text within typographical rules, woodcut initials. Minor occasional light browning, a few tiny burn-holes, small tear with loss to margins of Gg3, Rr6, Uu3, *Ddd6, 3E4 and 3Y2 (not affecting text), slight staining to 3B5 with short tear at lower margin (not affecting text), a few other tiny oil and other stains, the condition generally very good, and a notably tall, well-margined copy.
Fourth folio, and the last of the 17th-century editions of Shakespeare's works, edited by John Heminge (d. 1630) and Henry Condell (d. 1627), the seven plays added by Philip Chetwin (d. 1680), publisher of the Third Folio. A reprint of the ill-fated Third Folio, this edition was issued by Henry Herringman in conjunction with other booksellers, and has three settings of the title-page. Of the seven additional plays, also included in the Third Folio, only Pericles is today recognised as the work of Shakespeare. In common with the Third, the Fourth Folio dropped the final “e” from Shakespeare's name, a spelling that persisted until the beginning of the 19th century.
The printer of the Comedies has been identified from the ornaments as Robert Roberts. Although this is the only edition in which each play does not start on a fresh page, it is in a larger fount and more liberally spaced than the three earlier editions. (The two pages of L1 are set in smaller type, presumably after the discovery that some text had been omitted.) The Fourth Folio remained the favoured edition among collectors until the mid-18th century, when Samuel Johnson and Edward Capell argued for the primacy of the First Folio text.
Provenance: The lawyer and politician Simon Harcourt, first Viscount Harcourt (1661?–1727), his bookplate affixed to verso of title, thence by descent (armorial bookplate of Edward William Vernon Harcourt (1825–1891) on front pastedown). Simon Harcourt was the only son of Sir Philip Harcourt (d. 1688), the landowner and politician of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, and his first wife, Anne (d. 1664), the daughter of Sir William Waller of Osterley Park, Middlesex. In a distinguished political career he became Queen Anne's solicitor-general on 30 May 1702, subsequently promoted to attorney-general in 1707 after his close involvement in the negotiations for the Union with Scotland. He became lord chancellor in April 1713.

Presented by Adam Douglas, Senior Specialist in Literature at Peter Harrington Rare Books - http://www.peterharrington.co.uk & http://www.peterharringtonbooks.com
Folio (368 × 235 mm). Contemporary mottled calf, red morocco label, red sprinkled edges, rebacked preserving most of the original spine, tips restored. Engraved portrait by Martin Droeshout above the verses To the Reader on verso of the first leaf, title with fleur-de-lis device (McKerrow 263), double column text within typographical rules, woodcut initials.
Minor occasional light browning, a few tiny burn-holes, small tear with loss to margins of Gg3, Rr6, Uu3, *Ddd6, 3E4 and 3Y2 (not affecting text), slight staining to 3B5 with short tear at lower margin (not affecting text), a few other tiny oil and other stains, the condition generally very good, and a notably tall, well-margined copy.
Fourth folio, and the last of the 17th-century editions of Shakespeare's works, edited by John Heminge (d. 1630) and Henry Condell (d. 1627), the seven plays added by Philip Chetwin (d. 1680), publisher of the Third Folio. A reprint of the ill-fated Third Folio, this edition was issued by Henry Herringman in conjunction with other booksellers, and has three settings of the title-page. Of the seven additional plays, also included in the Third Folio, only Pericles is today recognised as the work of Shakespeare. In common with the Third, the Fourth Folio dropped the final “e” from Shakespeare's name, a spelling that persisted until the beginning of the 19th century.
The printer of the Comedies has been identified from the ornaments as Robert Roberts. Although this is the only edition in which each play does not start on a fresh page, it is in a larger fount and more liberally spaced than the three earlier editions. (The two pages of L1 are set in smaller type, presumably after the discovery that some text had been omitted.) The Fourth Folio remained the favoured edition among collectors until the mid-18th century, when Samuel Johnson and Edward Capell argued for the primacy of the First Folio text.
Provenance: The lawyer and politician Simon Harcourt, first Viscount Harcourt (1661?–1727), his bookplate affixed to verso of title, thence by descent (armorial bookplate of Edward William Vernon Harcourt (1825–1891) on front pastedown). Simon Harcourt was the only son of Sir Philip Harcourt (d. 1688), the landowner and politician of Stanton Harcourt, Oxfordshire, and his first wife, Anne (d. 1664), the daughter of Sir William Waller of Osterley Park, Middlesex. In a distinguished political career he became Queen Anne's solicitor-general on 30 May 1702, subsequently promoted to attorney-general in 1707 after his close involvement in the negotiations for the Union with Scotland. He became lord chancellor in April 1713.

Between 1886 and 1914, British politics was dominated by the Irish Question, and the Irish nationalist party exerted considerable pressure on British governments. Since 1974, the rise of the SNP has brought the Scottish Question into the forefront of British politics, and in 1998, legislation provided for devolution to the non-English parts of the United Kingdom.
There remain, nevertheless, strong pressures for Scottish independence, and in Wales there is a lively nationalist party, Plaid Cymru. How is the rise of nationalist parties to be explained?

Queen Victoria was the first constitutional monarch.
http://www.gresham.ac.uk/lectures-and-events/queen-victoria
During her reign the power of the monarchy declined but its influence grew. When Victoria came to the throne, the monarchy was probably less popular than at any time since the seventeenth century. By the end of her reign, it had been raised to a level of prestige and affection which it has never lost. The Crown had become the symbol not only of British nationhood but also of Empire. How did this come about?

The Liberal Party was a liberal political party which was one of the two major parties in the United Kingdom in the 19th and early 20th century.
The party arose from an alliance of Whigs and free-trade Peelites and Radicals in the 1850s. By the end of the nineteenth century, it had formed four governments under William Gladstone. Despite splitting over the issue of Irish Home Rule, the party returned to power in 1906 with a landslide victory and introduced the welfare reforms that created a basic British welfare state. H. H. Asquith was Liberal Prime Minister between 1908 and 1916, followed by David Lloyd George whose premiership lasted until 1922 when the coalition the party had formed with the Conservative Party in World War I came to an end.

Listen again to Dr Liam Herringshaw's lecture at the University of York on Thursday 19th February 2015.
We know plenty about the history of York, but what about its prehistoric origins?
In this talk, geologist Dr Liam Herringshaw will explain how Ice Age glaciers dictated the location of the city, how ancient seas controlled what it is built from, and why it became an international centre of geological research.

William Vernon Harcourt (politician)
Sir William George Granville Venables Vernon Harcourt (14 October 1827 – 1 October 1904) was a British lawyer, journalist and Liberal statesman. He served as Member of Parliament for various constituencies and held the offices of Home Secretary and Chancellor of the Exchequer under William Ewart Gladstone before becoming Leader of the Opposition. A talented speaker in parliament, he was sometimes regarded as aloof and possessing only an intellectual involvement in his causes. He failed to engender much emotional response in the public and became only a reluctant and disillusioned leader of his party.
Family and ancestry
Harcourt was the second son of the Rev. Canon William Vernon Harcourt, of Nuneham Park, Oxford and his wife Matilda Mary Gooch, daughter of Colonel William Gooch. His father was himself the fourth son and eventually heir of Edward Harcourt, Archbishop of York and his wife Lady Anne Leveson-Gower. Anne was a daughter of Granville Leveson-Gower, 1st Marquess of Stafford and his second wife Lady Louisa Egerton. Her maternal grandparents were Scroop Egerton, 1st Duke of Bridgewater and his second wife Rachel Russell. Rachel was a daughter of Wriothesley Russell, 2nd Duke of Bedford and the rich heiress Elizabeth Howland, daughter of John Howland of Streatham. William was therefore born a Vernon, and by his connection with the old families of Vernon and Harcourt was related to many of the great English houses, a fact of which he was proud. In later life his descent from the Plantagenets was a joke among his political opponents.

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
William's (Heath Ledger) friends protect him when he is sent to the stocks for impersonating a nobleman.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Heath Ledger stars as William Thatcher, a low-born 14th century squire who, in a fit of inspired spontaneity, replaces his deceased employer as the competitor at a jousting competition. Jousting is a pastime only permitted to knights, who are of noble birth, but Thatcher wins and decides to continue his new pursuits. With the help of his two fellow squire friends Wat and Roland (Alan Tudyk and Mark Addy) and none other than the gambling-addicted Geoffrey Chaucer (Paul Bettany), Thatcher has soon adopted a false identity and is winning one joust after another on his way to a championship in London. His victories inspire the affection of a female fan, Jocelyn (Shannyn Sossamon), and the ire of a competitor, Count Adehmar (Rufus Sewell), but Thatcher's ruse is threatened with exposure.

A slightly improved version of our William Osler video which was originally uploaded on August 1st 2014.
"In the continual remembrance of a glorious past individuals and nations find their noblest inspiration"
- Sir William Osler, The Leaven of Science, Philadelphia, May 21st 1894.
Sir William Osler was the most famous physician in the English speaking world at the time of his death in 1919.
Besides a notable tendency to buffoonery, Osler had no especially important talents as a youngling. He was a regular student in many ways but had had the good fortune of being duly influenced by a succession of peculiarly positive personalities. As we trace his life through a revealing 70 years, we witness how a mischievous 'bad boy' from the backwoods in Canada would rise to occupy the most respected chair of medicine in the world.
All throughout his life Osler was apt to adorn himself with the noblest of qualities. A pious priest in the temple of Asclepius, he spoke from both heart and head, and it is the humanising influence of his lectures that continue to quicken the doctors pulse today. The importance of Osler's contributions as an internist, educator, pathologist, historian, and humanist have been well documented. He continues to inspire modern generations of doctors to become good physicians.
