This thesis makes available, in as complete a collection as it has been possible to assemble, the poetry of Jonathan Odell, the first Provincial Secretary of New Brunswick, who was also a clergyman, doctor, and worker for the Loyalist cause during the American Revolution. Until now, Odell has been known almost wholly as a writer of political satire, comparable to Philip Freneau on the Revolutionary side. Further investigation, however, proves that Odell’s literary activity continued long after the Revolutionary period and besides satire, included patriotic verse, occasional pieces, and descriptive and reflective poems. It was also confirmed that he wrote an essay on prosody which was published in England in 1805. The manuscripts from which Odell’s work has been transcribed are located at Saint John in the New Brunswick Museum, where they were made available for research for the purpose of this thesis. The Odell Collection consists of more than 870 items which include newspapers, books, portraits, and about two hundred pieces of manuscript material. This material comprises such documents as land transfers, grants, deeds, business letters, and miscellaneous correspondence, appointments, genealogical information, and poetry written by Odell. The collection is not confined only to material relating to Jonathan Odell, but includes also material relating to his son, the Honorable William F. Odell, and other members of the family. The thesis includes a biographical sketch of Odell, a brief commentary on his work, and the complete poems. The biographical and critical remarks are compiled from items in the Odell Collection as well as from references in published material. The poems are represented chronologically according to the stages of Odell’s literary activity: The Pre-Revolutionary Period (1759-1775), the Revolutionary Period (1776-1783), and the New Brunswick Period (1784-1818). In addition to the poems from the Odell Collection, a number of others have been included which were not found in manuscript form, but which were taken from contemporary newspapers and later publications. All the poems given are presumed to be by Odell, although there is sane question about "The American Times," "To Sir James Wallace,” and "The Old Year and the New: a Prophecy." These have been placed, therefore, in an appendix. The thesis shows that the scope of Odell’s work is far wider than the revolutionary satire which literary historians have so far recognised. That Odell had done same writing before the war began and that he continued to write after hostilities ended are clearly demonstrated. The greatest body of his poetry, moreover, revealing the most variety in subject matter and style, and having direct reference to the Canadian scene, was written during the thirty-three years of his residence in New Brunswick. / Arts, Faculty of / English, Department of / Graduate

Large urban parliamentary constituencies and rural (county) constituencies have received much attention in recent years from historical psephologists: the smaller borough constituencies have received comparatively little yet in important ways these were the 'typical' constituencies. This study is an attempt to remedy that hiatus, and is somewhat novel in examining electoral behaviour over a number of elections spanning the period of the first Reform Act. That voting was open is crucial to an understanding of voting behaviour in this period, for in general the smaller the constituency the greater the opportunities for influencing the vote casting of electors. The existence within small boroughs of a large body of independent electors freely expressing their will in the polls may be an image conveyed by campaign literature, yet it was in large measure a fiction. This study emphasises the pervasiveness and significance of 'influence', both legitimate and otherwise, and suggests that political inclination, social class, and even bribery were relatively unimportant when set against the widely spread tentacles of influence as mediated. through property. Family influences too were significant, and it is clear that electors were calculating individuals. A detailed longitudinal study has been made possible by the nature of the available data (pollbooks, directories, corporation records, and a singular collection of letters and election material) and some considerable evidence on spatial distribution of partisan votes has emerged. It has also become clear that voting in parliamentary elections resembled closely that in local elections, and was subject to the same influences and directed by the same organisational machine, however informal that may have been. Finally, the Reform Act of 1832, interpreted by Whig historians as a landmark on the road to democracy, had a quite different impact locally. Formal changes in Grimsby made for a less representative electorate, a regression rather than advance of democracy. The Act left the influences on voters largely unchanged.

Doctor en filosofía con mención en estética y teoría del arte / Tesis no autorizada por su autor para ser publicada a texto completo / La presente tesis explora la relación entre la “estética” y el concepto de “actividad productiva” en Karl Marx, atendiendo a los aspectos más relevantes de su obra temprana y madura. Este trabajo de investigación se propone, en primer lugar, exponer el contexto en el que emergen las categorías marxianas de “actividad sensible” (sinnliche Tätigkeit), de “relación práctica” (praktische Verhältnis) y de “fuerzas humanas esenciales” (menschlichen Wesenskräfte), para a partir de aquí presentar el modo en que ellas se traman a un pensamiento de lo “común” o del “comunismo”, inseparable de la idea de una “emancipación plena de todos los sentidos humanos (vollständige Emanzipation aller menschlichen Sinne)”. Respecto a esto último, nuestra investigación, en segundo lugar, se plantea el problema de los posibles vínculos entre la primera fase de la obra de Marx y la estética del idealismo alemán, particularmente el lazo entre la concepción marxiana de una revolución estética más profunda que la revolución política y la idea en Schiller de una “revolución de la sensibilidad”. Se trata, finalmente, de indagar sobre las relaciones de continuidad y de discontinuidad que hay entre aquel conjunto de categorías en la obra marxiana temprana y la emergencia de los conceptos de “fuerza de producción” y de “división del trabajo”, con el objetivo de esclarecer la problemática de la obra de arte en el marco general de una crítica de la economía política.
