In Hancock County, Maine, a small mineralized fine-grained granite lies at the southeast portion of the felsic Lucerne pluton, near the contact with the Blue Hill pluton. The Cambro-Ordovician, chlorite-rich Ellsworth schist occurs to the north and south of the younger fine-grained granite and is the host to many sulfide deposits within the region. Within the study area the fine-grained granite and the Ellsworth schist have been contact metamorphosed by the Devonian age Lucerne. The fine-grained granite is a quartz-rich, leucocratic, two-mica, two-feldspar granitoid. It is marked by the presence of 1) sulfides (pyrrhotite, pyrite, loellingite, arsenopyrite, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite) 2) volatile-rich phases such as muscovite, tourmaline, apatite, and chlorite, and 3) high-temperature anhydrous phases such as andalusite and fibrolite. Feldspars have been partially altered to muscovite, and biotite has partially altered to chlorite. Sulfides and tourmaline appear to have formed late in the crystallization sequence. Prior to the intrusion of the Lucerne the fine-grained granite probably cooled to a maximum temperature of about 600°C, and crystallized to form feldspar, biotite, quartz, and muscovite. Andalusite and sillimanite probably formed when the Lucerne intruded; at about 650-725°C and about 1-2 kilobars. Quartz, muscovite, tourmaline and sulfides probably formed during subsequent cooling. Feldspar composition indicate reequilibration with a fluid at about 400°C. Dehydration reactions within the Ellsworth schist probably resulted in the release of metal bearing fluids from the Ellsworth schist and redeposition into the adjacent fine-grained granite. / M.S.

This dissertation is a comparative analysis of the yeomanry of Forsyth and Hancock counties in Georgia during the ten years prior to the Civil War. The premise argues that definitive characteristics of yeoman culture can only be found in counties that are dominated the yeomanry. Studies that find yeomen in planter dominated counties are defined those yeomen by the institutions that are created by and serve the planter society.

Having a strong autonomy is about being able to fully govern yourself. In the case of the Åland Islands and its autonomy, this is not the case. Although Åland received its autonomy over a hundred years ago, little progress has been made towards “being as fully sovereign as possible without being independent” which was agreed upon by Finland, Sweden and the League of Nations in 1921. This study aims to identify and analyse the strategies Åland have used in recent years in its attempt to protect and strengthen its autonomy. I have done this by interviewing political actors from all corners of the political landscape on Åland, from prime ministers to political party leaders and others, to hear how they personally have been involved – or what they know on the subject.
