  Merry England - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It is a utopian and not completely consistent vision: a revisited England, "the thatched cottage, the country inn, the cup of tea, and Sunday roast." It may be treated both as a product of the sentimental nostalgic imagination, and an ideological construct.
On another level, the concept of Deep England is often closely associated with an explicit opposition to modernism, and industrialisation.
A few popular music artists have used elements of the Merry England myth as recurring themes; Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull in particular has often alluded to an anti-modern, pre-industrial, agrarian vision of England in his songs (the band's namesake was himself an agrarian, the inventor of the seed drill).

 Merry England - InfoSearchPoint.com   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
The term Merry England, Deep England or (more jocularly) Merrie England refers to a semi-mythological, idyllic, and pastoral way of life that the lucky inhabitants of England allegedly enjoyed at some poorly-defined point between the Middle Ages and the completion of the Industrial Revolution.
It's a utopian vision of a revisited England, "the thatched cottage, the country inn, the cup of tea, and Sunday roast", which is both a product of the imagination and an ideological construct.
The vision extends to allowing a few artisans and other cosmopolitans to live in towns, to a pliant and genuinely humane clergy and to an interested and altruistic aristocracy and royalty who would still be allowed their eccentricities as long as the pub stayed open, and feasts were regularly celebrated.

 English mythology - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
English mythology, like the conglomerate society which it represents, with a long and elaborate history of invasion and settlement by diverse cultures, is one which has nevertheless an entirely idiosyncratic nature of its own.
Laying aside the considerations of contemporary myths such as that of Deep England, there are a number of distinctive mythical folk heroes and legends, many of which have their roots steeped in the vestiges of historical fact: King Arthur, Hereward the Wake, Robin Hood, the lost land of Lyonesse.
In Cornwall, for example, there are a number of faery species including the pixies, sometimes known as piskeys, and the spirits of the mine-shafts, the knockers, and these are known nowhere else in England.

 The Scotsman - Sport - England forced to dig deep   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
CLIVE Woodward, the England manager, has made an impassioned defence of Six Nations rugby after his unbeaten tournament favourites were given a thorough examination by the perceived no-hopers Wales.
Wales certainly presented a powerful case for the underdog, tearing into England and rediscovering the pride they were so desperately devoid of during a spineless surrender in Italy seven days earlier.
Wilkinson’s second drop-goal edged the visitors 9-6 ahead, but England experienced an unsettling period just before the break when referee Steve Walsh reversed a penalty award just as Wilkinson was lining up an easy kick at goal and then Taylor dashed for glory, only blissfully to ignore the unmarked Rhys Williams on his left shoulder.

 World Cup 2002: Take a deep breath ... England could go all the way - [Sunday Herald]
England came nowhere near to measuring up to the burden of expectations, and certainly played only half as well as they did against Argentina, and yet they beat Denmark comfortably yesterday.
England, lamentable against Sweden, dull against Nigeria and vindicated, never forget, by a single dubious penalty against Argentina, have meanwhile failed to resemble a squad capable of beating Brazil.
Taking several deep breaths, we are now obliged to consider the possibility that England might, this time, go all the way.

 Deep Purple
Deep Purple was formed in Hertford, England in 1968, with an inaugural lineup that featured guitarist Blackmore, vocalist Rod Evans, bassist Nick Simper, keyboardist Jon Lord, and drummer Ian Paice.
After completing 1974's Stormbringer, Blackmore left Deep Purple to form Rainbow with vocalist Ronnie James Dio; his replacement was ex-James Gang guitarist Tommy Bolin, who made his debut on Come Taste the Band.
The classic lineup of Blackmore, Gillan, Lord, Glover and Paice reunited Deep Purple in 1984 for a new album, the platinum smash Perfect Strangers; The House of Blue Light followed three years later, but as past tensions resurfaced, Gillan again exited in mid-1989.

The New England Seamounts have, therefore, either subsided on the order of a kilometer [(3,281 feet)] since Eocene times or the sea level has altered drastically.5 Coral reefs and platforms grow so rapidly that their growth outstrips sea floor spreading, geological subsidence of the sea floor or gradual rises in sea levels.
All over the oceans, the record indicated deep coral platforms, suggesting that the sea floor sank or that extraordinary amounts of water were added catastrophically.
Newly formed ocean crust subsidence is at a maximum rate of 250 m/ yr, basic subsidence averages 10 to 100 m/ yr and sea level rises, due to increased sea floor spreading, to less than 10 m/ yr.7 In essence, singly or all together, these processes will not drown coral reefs or carbonate platforms.

In the 1830s, the Gothic revival, which was in fact reviving a truly international European style, though its stages had been given purely English antiquarian labels—"Norman," "Early English", etc—was extended to revive the suucceding, more specifically English style, an English Renaissance revival, which has been given the modern name "Jacobethan".
