The Levellers
The Leveller movement of the 1640s campaigned for religious toleration and a radical remaking of politics in post-civil war England. This book, the first full-length study of the Levellers for fifty years, offers a fresh analysis of the originality and character of Leveller thought. Challenging received ideas about the Levellers as social contract theorists and Leveller thought as a mere radicalisation of parliamentarian thought, Foxley shows that the Levellers’ originality lay in their subtle and unexpected combination of different strands within parliamentarianism. The book takes full account of recent scholarship, and contributes to historical debates on the development of radical and republican politics in the civil war period, the nature of tolerationist thought, the significance of the Leveller movement and the extent of the Levellers’ influence in the ranks of the New Model Army.
A Happier Man: the Refashioning of William Walwyn
The pursuit of William Walwyn, the erstwhile Leveller leader, of a new career as a physician after the failure of his political hopes raises questions about relationships between medicine and politics in the aftermath of England's mid-century revolution. And the evidence of political sympathies is tantalizing, for his voluminous and various writings suggest some surprising shifts in overt commitment; they also and just as strikingly disclose some underlying continuities in outlook. Hirst examines the politics of compromise in Walyn's career. He says Walwyn's story shows the importance of the archive of personality, the ideal of happiness that plays in normalizing an apparently disjoined career and grounding an ideology.
Walwyn, William (fl.1649)
(fl.1649), pamphleteer and a leader of the Leveller movement. He was imprisoned in 1649 with Lilburne,
Cal Am gets OK for temporary rate hike
[Felton] Friends of Locally Owned Water, a group in the Santa Cruz Mountains that is pursuing a takeover of Cal Am's system there, protested Cal Am's request for \"interim rate relief,\" arguing that the delay in deciding Cal Am's larger rate case was caused by the company's mistakes and delays. In a proposed decision issued this week, [Christine Walwyn] said that, while Cal Am had contributed to the delay, \"the primary cause of procedural delay in this proceeding is the complexity of the applications, especially the 16 special requests Cal Am submitted for Monterey.\" \"While Cal Am is responsible for including the 16 special requests,\" Walwyn wrote in her draft decision, \"we agree with its assertion that the Monterey district faces an unusually tight water supply and extraordinarily complicated water issues and this (general rate case) proceeding is the right forum for it to seek relief for most of these special requests.\"
St Kitts' crime cut down thanks to military, citizens help - police chief
Basseterre, St Kitts, CMC: Commissioner of Police Celvin G. Walwyn said crime in the country has been trending down as security forces continue to implement initiatives to \"take back the streets.\" \"In the first month that I was here - even though we had an increase in shootings over the [prior] month - we had a 48 per cent drop in crime in St Kitts,\" he said. \"In October, we had a 23 per cent drop in crime. So even though it looked like things were getting out of control, things have actually gotten better.\"
Yachtsman dies on valedictory Atlantic crossing
An air and sea search operation followed, and Mr Walwyn was found in the water by another sailor, just off Chynhalls Point, near Coverack, late on Monday afternoon. He was airlifted to the Royal Cornwall Hospital in Truro, where he was pronounced dead. Mr Walwyn was married to Kate Spencer, an artist with whom he owned a gallery on St Kitts, and the trip was meant to be his final transatlantic crossing, according to his sister Susie Walwyn, from Tavistock. \"To the man, the myth, the legend that is and always will be [Philip Walwyn],\" it read. \"A man who touched so many people's hearts and souls, a man that is. St Kitts Yacht Club paid tribute to Mr Walwyn, describing his death as the \"passing of a great man; a legend in his own right\".
FC forward set for international bow
Matt Walwyn came off the bench against the Portuguese giants, who sent their reserve side to Broadhurst Park for a game to mark the official opening of FC's stadium. Matt was a trainee at Blackburn and played for AFC Fylde, Chorley and Droylsden before joining FC during the 2012/13 season.
Walwyn misses his chance to blow a few million pounds
Further to last week's story on Matt Walwyn's two late goals in AFC Fylde's 2-2 draw at Clitheroe that won pools punter Michael Elliott from Scotland over 3 million, our thanks to reader Simon Sandiford for pointing out that it was not the striker's first notable double. In the 2008 FA Vase final at Wembley, Walwyn, who was then a 17-year-old A-Level student, came on to score in the 84th minute, and again in injury time, turning a 1-0 deficit against Lowestoft into a 2-1 victory for Kirkham & Wesham. The club, based near Preston, then changed their name that summer to become AFC Fylde, having announced an ambitious 15-year plan which involves reaching the Conference by 2017 and the Football League by 2022. Walwyn, the son of former York and Blackpool striker Keith Walwyn, did admit missing a late chance at Clitheroe that would have given him a hat-trick, won the game and cost Elliott (who is a not a football fan and fills in the same numbers every week) 3,001,511.
Race of the Century still running at Ascot
Back in Lambourn, he remains the village's most enduring character and its most ardent supporter. Racing Welfare have named one of their housing developments after him, which, he says, is a little embarrassing, and while he has Windsor House, the yard in which he started training back in 1960, on the market, he is not going anywhere fast. ''As JFK said, 'Ich bin ein Berliner'; well, Ich bin ein Lambourner. I am a Lambourner, I'll never leave,\" he said. He added: \"Before he went to the sales I'd seen [Grundy] at Overbury Stud as a yearling. He was blond and beautiful, which caught the eye, but more importantly he was the most marvellous mover. Forget Epsom, he'd have acted down a precipice. The King George took its toll though and finished them both. Bustino broke down and Grundy was beaten at York next time by Dahlia whom he had beaten comprehensively at Ascot. He'd had a hectic season [second in the Greenham and 2,000 Guineas before winning the Irish Guineas, Derby, Irish Derby and King George]. He came home very tired after Ascot but typical of him he was bouncing again within three days. But a trainer is generally the last person to know when a horse is over the top.\" Like many of the older generation [Peter Walwyn] still finds it hard to forgive Ascot for taking out the tree-shaded old parade rings to make way for the new grandstand under the cloak of 'progress'. His view that the new edifice is ''an enormous expanse of eff-all'' is a succinct description which will resonate with anyone who has ridden the escalator to the fourth floor and wondered why such a big building was needed to house so much air.
