| ARTICLES RELATED TO Victorian morality | | | |  Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Singapore gay history - The 1980sThe early 80s was a period of widespread prosperity and new freedoms which saw the opening of clubs like Shadows, Marmota, Legend and Niche which catered to a predominantly gay clientèle even though they were not exclusively gay. These discoes would be closed by the time of the mid-80s, for unclear reasons, to be replaced by weekly Sunday Night Gay Parties or "Shadow Nights" run by the former management of Shadows (affectionately known as the "Shadow Management"). These "Shadow Nights" were roving events held at semi-permanent venues which ...

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Singapore gay history - The Japanese occupation When the Japanese imperial army invaded Singapore in February 1942 and renamed it Syonan-to, the British legal system was toppled overnight and replaced by the Japanese one. Unbeknownst to all save the elite few who possessed a knowledge of Japanese culture either through erudition or travel, homosexuality suddenly became legitimate as it was never criminalised in Japan. In fact, the Japanese military, who revered the Bushido code, were the inheritors of a tradition which extolled homosexuality as a higher form of love. It was widely ...

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Singapore gay history - The Pre-British era There exist no known written records of same-sex love in pre-colonial Singapore and, as a corollary, of any 'movement' in reaction to perceived or real oppression of such activity. Prior to the arrival of British traders and colonists in 1819, the island was largely populated by Malays of the Johor-Riau archipelago triangle who engaged mainly in subsistence farming, fishery and trade.
We can extrapolate from the culture of contemporary Malays that there was probably much tolerance to surreptitious homosexual activity, as evidenced by the absence of any vocal or physical violence against such individuals ou ...

He had only been at Oxford two days when he received a summons home. His mother had died of "inflammation of the brain"—perhaps meningitis or a stroke—at the age of forty-seven.
Whatever Dodgson's feelings may have been about this death, he did not allow them to distract him too much from his purpose at Oxford. He may not always have worked hard, but he was excepti ...

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Lewis Carroll - Photography In 1856, Dodgson took up the new art form of photography, first under the influence of his uncle Skeffington Lutwidge, and later his Oxford friend Reginald Southey and art photography pioneer Oscar Rejlander.
Dodgson soon excelled at the art, and it became an expression of his very personal inner philosophy; a belief in the divinity of what he called beauty, by which he seemed to mean a state of moral or aesthetic or physical perfection. He found this divine beauty not simply in the magic of theatre, but in the poetry of words, in a mathematical formula and perhaps supremely, in the h ...

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Lewis Carroll - Character The young adult Charles Dodgson was about six foot tall, slender and handsome in a soft-focused dreamy sort of way, with curling brown hair and blue eyes. At the unusually late age of seventeen, he suffered a severe attack of whooping cough which left him with poor hearing in his right ear and was probably responsible for his chronically weak chest in later life. The only overt defect he carried into adulthood was what he referred to as his "hesitation"—a stammer he had acquired in early childhood and which wa ...

It is the banking and stock exchange centre of the country, and is Canada's primary wholesale and distribution point. Its importance as a seaport increased after the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway, but has since diminished and is disused (see: Waterfront).

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Lewis Carroll - Writing career During his writing career, Carroll wrote poetry and short stories, sending them to various magazines and enjoying moderate success. Between 1854 and 1856, his work appeared in the national publications, The Comic Times and The Train, as well as smaller magazines like the Whitby Gazette and the Oxford Critic.
Most of his output was humorous, sometimes satirical. But his standards and his ambitions were exacting. "I do not think I have yet written anything worthy of real publication (in which I do not include ...

| | | | | Victorian morality: Encyclopedia II - Lewis Carroll - Jack the Ripper theories Many wild theories have been woven around the life of Lewis Carroll. Perhaps the most extreme emerged in 1996 when author Richard Wallace published a book titled Jack the Ripper, Light-Hearted Friend accusing Lewis Carroll and his colleague Thomas Vere Bayne of being Jack the Ripper. It was largely based upon anagrams Wallace constructed from Carroll's writing. Carroll and Bayne have strong alibis for most of the nights of the Ripper murders, and W ...
