fWotD Episode 2707: Tichborne case Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Wednesday, 2 October 2024 is Tichborne case.The Tichborne case was a legal cause célèbre that fascinated Victorian Britain in the 1860s and 1870s. It concerned the claims by a man sometimes referred to as Thomas Castro or as Arthur Orton, but usually termed "the Claimant", to be the missing heir to the Tichborne baronetcy. He failed to convince the courts, was convicted of perjury and served a 14-year prison sentence.Roger Tichborne, heir to the family's title and fortunes, was presumed to have died in a shipwreck in 1854 at age 25. His mother clung to a belief that he might have survived, and after hearing rumours that he had made his way to Australia, she advertised extensively in Australian newspapers, offering a reward for information. In 1866, a Wagga Wagga butcher known as Thomas Castro came forward claiming to be Roger Tichborne. Although his manners and bearing were unrefined, he gathered support and travelled to England. He was instantly accepted by Lady Tichborne as her son, although other family members were dismissive and sought to expose him as an impostor.During protracted enquiries before the case went to court in 1871, details emerged suggesting that the Claimant might be Arthur Orton, a butcher's son from Wapping in London, who had gone to sea as a boy and had last been heard of in Australia. After a civil court had rejected the Claimant's case, he was charged with perjury; while awaiting trial he campaigned throughout the country to gain popular support. In 1874, a criminal court jury decided that he was not Roger Tichborne and declared him to be Arthur Orton. Before passing a sentence of 14 years, the judge condemned the behaviour of the Claimant's counsel, Edward Kenealy, who was subsequently disbarred because of his conduct.After the trial, Kenealy instigated a popular radical reform movement, the Magna Charta Association, which championed the Claimant's cause for some years. Kenealy was elected to Parliament in 1875 as a radical independent but was not an effective parliamentarian. The movement was in decline when the Claimant was released in 1884, and he had no dealings with it. In 1895, he confessed to being Orton, only to recant almost immediately. He lived generally in poverty for the rest of his life and was destitute at the time of his death in 1898. Although most commentators have accepted the court's view that the Claimant was Orton, some analysts believe that an element of doubt remains as to his true identity and that, conceivably, he was Roger Tichborne.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 01:38 UTC on Wednesday, 2 October 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Tichborne case on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm neural Kendra.
La chronique de Josef Schovanec : Hans Taupeman (Hans Moleman), l'un des personnages fictifs de la série Les Simpson. Charlie Buffet, écrivain et journaliste pour les quotidiens Libération et Le Monde et pour différents magazines spécialisés (Montagnes Magazine, Vertical…), qui a traduit le livre "Vers l'Everest" de George Mallory (Éditions Paulsen/Collection Guérin). Ce livre rassemble tous les écrits de George Mallory, explorateur et alpiniste britannique, l'une des figures majeures des premières expéditions parties à la conquête de l'Everest : textes de réflexion, récits d'ascension, lettres à sa femme Ruth, jusqu'au dernier message confié à un Sherpa. « Une masse triangulaire incongrue a surgi des profondeurs ; son côté se perdait dans les nuages. Très progressivement, nous avons vu apparaître les flancs d'une grande montagne, ses glaciers et ses arêtes, tantôt un éclat, tantôt un autre à travers les échancrures mouvantes, jusqu'à ce que, bien plus haut dans le ciel que ce que l'imagination avait osé suggérer, apparaisse le sommet blanc de l'Everest. C'était comme la création la plus folle d'un rêve. » En 1921, un homme marche vers l'Himalaya, fasciné. Il est le premier Occidental à approcher le plus haut sommet du monde, à le décrire, à le photographier, et à s'élever sur ses pentes. Cet homme, c'est George Mallory. Britannique, dandy, courageux dans l'effort et l'inconfort, il est alpiniste par passion, écrivain et artiste par vocation : « Les alpinistes n'admettent aucune différence sur le plan émotionnel entre l'alpinisme et l'Art. Ils prétendent que quelque chose de sublime est l'essence même de l'alpinisme. Ils peuvent comparer l'appel des cimes à une mélodie merveilleuse, et la comparaison n'est pas ridicule. » Mallory écrivait. Ses textes racontent au plus intime ce que fut l'exploration exaltante de l'Everest jusqu'à ce 8 juin 1924 où il disparut sur les dernières pentes du Toit du monde, qu'il fut peut-être le premier à atteindre. Et où son corps momifié a été découvert le 1er mai 1999. Le coup de coeur de Gorian Delpâture : « L'imposture » de Zadie Smith (Gallimard). Eliza Touchet est loin d'être une femme ordinaire dans l'Angleterre victorienne de la fin du XIXe siècle. Non seulement, après avoir perdu son mari, elle vit en concubinage à peine masqué avec son cousin par alliance — dont elle se retrouve contrainte de corriger les innombrables romans-fleuves écrits dans la veine de Charles Dickens, le talent en moins —, mais elle est aussi farouchement indépendante et politisée. Abolitionniste de la première heure, Eliza s'enthousiasme pour un intrigant procès qui déchaîne les passions à Londres : Sir Roger, grand héritier de l'empire Tichborne, disparu en mer des années auparavant, a brusquement refait surface et réclame son dû. À ses côtés, un ancien esclave de la colonie jamaïcaine ayant appartenu à la famille Tichborne témoigne en sa faveur. Mais ce revenant, si grossier et inculte, peut-il vraiment être Sir Roger, comme il le clame ? Et pourquoi cet homme noir prend-il ainsi sa défense ? Le talk-show culturel de Jérôme Colin. Avec, dès 11h30, La Bagarre dans la Discothèque, un jeu musical complétement décalé où la créativité et la mauvaise foi font loi.

Rencontre animée par Olivia Gesbert Interprète : Marguerite Capelle Le premier roman historique écrit par Zadie Smith, inspiré de faits réels, se déroule à la fin du XIXe siècle. Le personnage principal, Mrs Touchet, est une veuve avant l'heure qui a construit son existence auprès de son cousin William Ainsworth, écrivain raté qui se rêve aussi célèbre que ses amis : Dickens, Forster, Kenealy. Abolitioniste, féministe, engagée pour toute cause qu'elle considère juste, Mrs Touchet, comme toute l'Angleterre des années 1870, se prend de passion pour l'affaire Tichborne : Arthur Orton, un boucher originaire de Wapping, récemment revenu d'un long voyage en Jamaïque, prétend être Sir Roger Tichborne, l'héritier de feu le baron de Tichborne, disparu en mer des années plus tôt. Son témoin le plus fidèle est Andrew Bogie, ancien esclave originaire de Jamaïque, qui fascine Mrs Touchet. Avec la plume percutante de Zadie Smith, on découvre une société anglaise qui se ment à elle-même et qui est encore loin d'avoir résolu son passé colonial. À lire – Zadie Smith, L'imposture, trad. de l'anglais (Royaume-Uni) par Laetitia Devaux, Gallimard, 2024.
This week... a rich noble family, a shipwreck, a scammer, and much more! It's the mysterious case of The Tichborne Claimant!
Each Lady Day, the Hampshire village of Tichborne hands out bags of flour to the locals - a tradition that began on 25th March, 1150 after Lady Marbella Tichborne, on her death-bed, suggested distributing a ‘Tichborne Dole' to the needy. It's far from the only quaint charity event still going strong in England. In the Kentish village of Biddenden each Easter Monday, locals indulge in ‘Biddenden cakes', bearing the effigy of the Biddenden Maids - conjoined twins who also left behind an annual dole for the deserving poor. And in Hallaton, Leicestershire, villagers still participate in a chaotic rugby-like game, but with more ale and definitely more hare pies. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly consider what such kooky festivities tell us about mediaeval attitudes to women and the poor; recall what happened when ‘vagabonds' dared to take advantage of these handouts; and stumble upon a new book proposal for Danny Wallace… Further Reading: • ‘The Tichborne Dole' (Historic UK, 2015): https://www.historic-uk.com/CultureUK/The-Tichborne-Dole/ • ‘The Strange Story of the Biddenden Maids' (A London Inheritance, 2021): https://alondoninheritance.com/cycling-around-britain/the-strange-story-of-the-biddenden-maids/ • ‘Custom of charity of Tichbourne dole - bags of flour given to local people' (British Pathé, 1928): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jV30X294hA This episode first premiered in 2022, for members of
In the 19th century, a butcher living in Australia claimed to be the long-lost heir of a British fortune. The Tichborne trial, which sparked much controversy and even more attention in Victorian England, is at the center of Zadie Smith's new novel, The Fraud. In today's episode, the author tells NPR's Mary Louise Kelly how she became captivated by the outrageous lies the man told in court, and how the way his believers still dug their heels and supported him echoes the state of politics in the 21st century.
Zadie Smith è una delle scrittrici britanniche più affermate. Padre inglese, madre giamaicana, aveva esordito nel 2000 con "Denti bianchi", un romanzo sullo scontro fra culture e generazioni diventato un caso letterario mondiale. Poi sono seguiti altri libri che si sono sempre concentrati sulla contemporaneità. Per la prima volta, ora, Zadie Smith ha scritto un romanzo storico "L'impostore" (Mondadori- traduz. Dario Diofebi). Tutto prende spunto da un fatto realmente accaduto nell'Inghilterra vittoriana, il caso Tichborne. Siamo nella seconda metà dell'800 e un macellaio sostiene di essere sir Roger Tichborne, un ricco aristocratico dato per disperso anni prima in mare. Ne nasce un processo con il macellaio supportato da un testimone, Andrew Bogle, ex schiavo in Giamaica. All'epoca l'opinione pubblica si divise cosa che accade anche nel romanzo, dove lo sguardo è soprattutto quello di Eliza Touchet, una governante contraria alla schavitù che resta affascinata dal testimone chiave del processo. Che cosa ricordano gli altri di noi? È la domanda al centro di "Romanzo senza umani" di Paolo Di Paolo (Feltrinelli). Il protagonista è un quarantenne, Mauro Barbi, fa lo storico di professione e si definisce "un uomo profondamente irritato". È esperto di piccole glaciazioni e per questo sta compiendo un sopralluogo sul Lago di Costanza, in un inverno in cui il lago è congelato. Durante il viaggio contatta alcune persone del suo passato (per esempio risponde ad una mail dopo 15 anni oppure telefona a persone che non sente da tanto tempo) e lo fa per capire che immagine queste persone si erano fatte di lui. "È arrivato il momento di ricostruire le ragioni di un esodo, lo spopolamento del paesaggio della mia esistenza" si legge nel romanzo.

In more than two decades since Zadie Smith burst onto the literary scene with her debut novel, ‘White Teeth', her books, essays and short stories have continued to enjoy commercial and critical success. Her latest novel brings to life the story of the Tichborne case – one of the lengthiest trials in British history and one that enthralled Victorian England. Robert Bound is joined by Alex Peake-Tomkinson and Alex Preston to review Smith's first foray into historical fiction.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode, we read the elegy of Chidiock Tichborne, written the night before his execution, and contemplate the power of repetitions, the balanced precision of a man facing his end, and the drumbeat of monosyllables that takes his imagination beyond the moment of his death. Tichborne's Elegy My feast of joy is but a dish of pain, My crop of corn is but a field of tares, And all my good is but vain hope of gain: The day is past, and yet I saw no sun, And now I live, and now my life is done. The spring is past, and yet it hath not sprung, My fruit is fallen, and yet my leaves are green, The spring is past, and yet it hath not sprung, I saw the world, and yet I was not seen: My thread is cut, and yet it is not spun, And now I live, and now my life is done. I sought my death, and found it in my womb, I looked for life, and saw it was a shade, I trod the earth, and knew it was my tomb, And now I die, and now I was but made; The glass is full, and now the glass is run, And now I live, and now my life is done.

1854. A shipwreck was found off the coast of Brazil. On board was a young English aristocrat, 25-year-old Sir Roger Tichborne. But his mother, a wealthy dowager, could not accept his death. When, years later, rumors circled that the survivors were taken to Australia, she placed ads in the papers, but heard nothing. Then, over a decade after the shipwreck, an impoverished man emerged from the Australian outback, making the sensational claim that he was in fact the long-lost Sir Roger. It led to scandal, sensation, and one of the most infamous legal battles in 19th-century Britain. So, just who was the claimant? Jack Whicher, legendary Scotland Yard inspector, was determined to find out. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Chidiock Tichborne was a poet raised Catholic among Protestants. He is known to history as one of the conspirators involved in a plot to assassinate Queen Elizabeth I, a Protestant, and replace her with Mary, Queen of Scots, a Catholic. Let's talk about how his involvement in what was called the Babington Plot led to his execution for high treason.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
When Sir Roger Tichborne was shipwrecked and lost at sea in 1854, his mother fell into a deep state of mourning, both devastated by the loss of her son and insistent that he was still alive. As much as the rest of her family tried their best to convince her that Roger was not ever coming back, she just refused to stop searching. It was a stance that paid off handsomely then, when her long lost son made his triumphant return to England 12 years later with a plan to reclaim the family estate. It would be a claim that would make it to court and eventually be the longest running trial in English legal history, holding the title for over a hundred years and would light up the Victorian press with scandal, humour and class warfare that would last decades.

The golden age of detective fiction was obsessed with identity. The reason why? An extremely melodramatic Victorian legal case involving shipwreck, Shetland ponies and a tangled aristocratic inheritance.
Wir springen in dieser Folge in die Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts. Der Aristokrat Sir Roger Tichborne bricht nach Südamerika auf, um sich von seinem Liebeskummer abzulenken. Doch im Zuge einer Schiffsreise verschwindet er spurlos, und erst nach mehr als zehn Jahren dringt ein Lebenszeichen zu seiner Mutter, die als Einzige nicht an seinen Tod glaubte. Wir sprechen in dieser Folge über die Rückkehr des Sohnes, warum beinahe alle außer seiner Mutter an ihm zweifelten, und wie sich das Ganze zu einem der größten Skandale des viktorianischen Englands entwickelte. Das erwähnte Buch heißt "The Tichborne Claimant", von Rohan McWilliam. NEU: Wer unsere Folgen lieber ohne Werbung anhören will, kann das über eine kleine Unterstützung auf Steady tun.

An Weihnachten 1866 taucht der seit Jahren totgeglaubte Erbe der Familie Tichborne plötzlich wieder in London auf. Henriette Tichborne ist überglücklich ihren Sohn Roger wieder in die Arme zu schließen, auch wenn er sich körperlich verändert hat. Sie hatte eh nie an seinen Tod während eines Schiffsunglücks glauben wollen. Doch warum die Identität des vermeintlichen Rückkehrers nicht so leicht zu klären ist, wie sich das Ganze zu zwei der längsten Prozesse der britischen Rechtsgeschichte entwickelte und welche Rolle eine Vermisstenagentur in Australien spielte, besprechen Nina und Katharina in dieser Folge des historischen True Crime Podcasts „Früher war mehr Verbrechen“ über den Tichborne Claimant. **// Kapitel //** - 03:15 - Ein Wunder an Weihnachten 1866 - 04:10 - Das Leben des Roger Tichborne - 18:04 - Auftritt Thomas Castro - 24:49 - Identität im 19.

Think you can solve a little Victorian mystery? Can a man who is shorter, much fatter, less educated, and with a different accent be the same as a skinny, stylish son of a baronet? Listen to the story of Sir Roger Tichborne and the Tichborne Claimant.
Gather ‘round and take your seat! Tonight we tell you the tale of a 900-year-old curse that remains active to this day! We, at the library, are ready to reveal the proof of it's punishing powers for all to hear! Our story begins when Lady Mabella Tichborne made up her mind that her will would be carried out long after her death. Her wild words created a curse that caused generations of the family to carry out her deathbed wish. A wish they obey to the letter, even now.

Chidiok Tichborne (1588-86) This poem is also known as Tychborne/Tichborne's elergy. Little is known about the author except that he was executed for plotting to assassinate Queen Elizabeth. And that he wrote this poem in the Tower before his execution. It probably survives in anthologies for two reasons: Firstly the tag ‘Written with his owne hand in the Tower before his execution' does grab the attention,, and secondly as an example of Elizabethan poetry written by educated young men. It takes the kind of antithesis and paradox someone like Sydney or Shakespeare could use effectively and runs it into the ground. Compare it with Raleigh's last poem. ‘What is our life? A play of passion' and … On the other hand, before we get too critical, if the poem is genuine the poet was looking forward to being hung, drawn and quartered, so perhaps this elegant metrical balancing act was an effective way of focussing his mind on other things. Tichborne has a wikipedia page (of course) which contains a contemporary response to this poem. This version is taken from Seven Centuries of Poetry in English, 4th ed. (Ed) John Leonard.

The Tichborne Claimant was either a 19th century lord, long thought missing at sea or a butcher from Wagga spinning an elaborate lie to get his hands on the Tichborne fortune. In this episode author and historian Robyn Annear explores one of the most notorious court cases in Australian history and Nicholas gets distracted by the phrase ‘Retractable Penis.’ http://www.mammothaudio.com.au/scamapalooza/
In 1854, English aristocrat Roger Tichborne disappeared at sea. Twelve years later, a butcher from Wagga Wagga, Australia, claimed he was the long-lost heir. In this week's episode of the Futility Closet podcast, we'll tell the sensational story of the Tichborne claimant, which Mark Twain called "the most intricate and fascinating and marvelous real-life romance that has ever been played upon the world's stage." We'll also puzzle over why family businesses are often more successful in Japan than in other countries. Sources for our feature on the Tichborne claimant: Rohan McWilliam, The Tichborne Claimant: A Victorian Sensation, 2007. Robyn Annear, The Man Who Lost Himself: The Unbelievable Story of the Tichborne Claimant, 2011.

You won't find this photograph in a glossy coffee table book. It's not art and the person who took it doesn't feature in the Photographers Hall of Fame. But this picture has had an enormous impact on our legal system. In 1866 a butcher sat for his photograph in the remote town of Wagga Wagga, Australia. Three years later this likeness had Britain transfixed. Jennifer Tucker tells the story of how it was central to the longest legal battle in 19th-century England, and sparked a debate about evidence, the law, ethics and facial recognition that has continued ever since.Jennifer Tucker is Associate Professor of History and Science in Society at Wesleyan University, USA.Producer: Rosie Dawson.
The Tichborne Dole is a legend from England that may be true or based on true events. It supposedly occurred around 1150, and may explain the origin of a yearly custom in Hampshire, England, in which the aristocratic Tichborne family gives flour to the poor every March 25. The custom supposedly follows the last wishes of Lady Maybela Tichborne, who was very charitable and also, apparently, very tough and determined. She was reputed to be such a heroic figure that even the wind, normally very blustery in March, cooperated in securing her legacy. We come to you from the very windy Oklahoma, having just driven from Jacksonville, Florida to Albuquerque, and then made our way back east toward Memphis. Phew! With all of our driving and residencies at schools and libraries, we still managed to drop in for a "spell" at The Wizarding World Of Harry Potter in Universal Orlando, and take a leisurely train ride from Albuquerque to the colorful and historic little city of Santa Fe, where we indulged in a walking tour.
