Collection of engravings, [16--]-1939.

Title: Collection of engravings, [16--]-1939.

This collection consists of engravings that Pitts Theology Library acquired over a period of several years. Most of the engravings are rather large and have, thus, also been referred to as broadsides. The engravings are nearly all of British origin, with two exceptions: a French cartoon engraving of the body of St. Mary Margaret and "Armě van de Heylige Ligue voor der Jesuiten Monarchy," which is Danish. The last item is accompanied by a draft translation of its inscription into English. The engravings consist mainly of either engraved portraits of prominent men and women or political cartoons. Among the notable persons depicted in the portraits are William Jones of Nayland, William Huntington, Henry Edward Manning, Edward Irving, Popes Pius VI and IX, Sydney Smith, Michael Solomon Alexander, William Wilberforce, Samuel Parr, Frederick Temple, William Dalrymple Maclagan, and Hannah More. The cartoons in the collection are mostly satirical in nature, and their topics include the Catholic Church, Jesuit priests, missionaries, Methodism, and particular individuals (such as W.E. Gladstone). Though the earliest engraving is from the 17th century, the majority of the pieces were created in the late 18th century through the 20th century.

Connolly, Arthur T. (Arthur Theodore), d. 1933. The Irish Repeal campaign cartoon collection.

Title: The Irish Repeal campaign cartoon collection. ca. 1800-1850.

Illustrating opposing attitudes to the 1800 Act of Union which created a legislative union between England and Ireland. Three anti-union cartoons published in Dublin flatteringly portray Daniel O'Connell, (Irish statesman, founder in 1840 of the Repeal Association which sought restoration of the Irish parliament), in his struggle against English rule as personified by Arthur Wellesley, (Duke of Wellington, British Prime Minster, 1828-1830, 1834), and Sir Robert Peel, (Prime Minister, 1834-1835, 1841-1846). Accompanying O'Connell in two cartoons is a figure that may represent Thomas Osborne Davis, (Irish writer, organizer of the Young Ireland movement, founder of the pro-repeal newspaper, The Nation). In contrast, a fourth cartoon, by English caricaturist, George Cruikshank, represents O'Connell as an ax-wielding bully attempting to sever the hands of England and Ireland united in friendship. The final item, a damaged election flier entitled, "Under the British Flag," depicts Liberal policies favorably in comparison to those of the Tories (Conservatives).
