Reference Level Title & Description Date CH Series Chapter CH/1 sub-series Chapter Act Books & Minutes Chapter Act books are not minutes of discussions but are registers of decisions taken, or actions done and which can also include records of installations of deans and prebendaries, assignments of chapter employees, decisions about services, leases of properties and orders involving much of the minutiae of chapter administration. The 1319 statutes of Bishop Martival laid down that a sworn notary should be appointed for the purpose of keeping regular chapter records and that a residentiary canon should be elected annually to act as a 'custos mumimentorum'. These provisions were not immediately or completely effective, although notes of admissions of canons and other capitular acts for the years 1319-26 are found in Liber C. Towards the end of Liber C, ff 452-8 are contains 'Chapter Acts' 1320-1324. The early Chapter Act books are named after the Chapter Clerks. CH/1/1 item Chapter Act Book 1329-1352 Known as Hemingsby. The first entry in the act book is dated November 1329 but it was not until 1331 that the register began to be regularly kept. There is a select table of contents arranged in two columns, the work of the chancellor and communar, Richard Drake, in 1668. The original intention seems to have been to arrange the items according to subject rather than to date; but, although some attempt was made to keep separate records of admission of canons and vicars, the initial plan was not generally adhered to, with the result that the arrangement of the contents as a whole appears somewhat haphazard. Each entry has its own contemporary marginal heading, and there are, in addition, numerous marginalia in many different hands and of many different periods. Published by the Records Branch of the Wiltshire Record Society, Volume XVIII, 1963, edited by Helena M Chew. The contents of the books is transcribed by not translated, also contains extensive biographical notes. 1 CH/1/2 item Chapter Act Book 1348-1358 CH/1/3 item Chapter Act Book 1385-1387 CH/1/4 item Chapter Act Book 1387-1408 Appears to cover the period 1387-1395 and then 1407-1408.

In 1636, he became the frst Laudian Professor of Arabic at Oxford. Before him, no regular teaching in Arabic was provided in England,1 and the Bodleian Library contained only a handful of Oriental manuscripts.2 Tere were no printed grammars or dictionaries worth the name, no native speakers to teach the lan- guage, and few printed books in Arabic.3 In this context, Pococke soon gained a considerable reputation in England and across Europe for raising the standards of orientalist scholarship and turning Oxford and its library into frst-rate institu- tions of orientalist learning.

  • Anton Deusing (1612-1666) and His Persian and Turkish Dictionaries1
    AN UNSUNG HERO OF ORIENTAL STUDIES IN LEIDEN: ANTON DEUSING (1612-1666) AND HIS PERSIAN AND TURKISH DICTIONARIES1 NIL Ö. PALABIYIK Abstract The article brings to life the now forgotten Deusing, a protégé of Golius in 1630s in Leiden who made substantial contributions to the study of oriental languages in Western Europe. He was influential in putting together the expanded edition of Erpenius’s Arabic grammar and the publication of the first Persian grammar in Europe. Yet his most endur- ing and profound legacy lies in the Turkish and Persian dictionaries he compiled, which, this piece argues, formed the basis of Golius’s dictionaries. Keywords: Oriental studies, Turkish, Persian, Thomas Erpenius, Jacobus Golius It is not uncommon that modern historiography obscures illustrious scholars of the past and reduces them to footnotes, when they were, in fact, pivotal players within their intellectual milieu. Anton Deusing (1612-1666) is one such elusive figure, whose name is hardly ever mentioned today among those who advanced the study of oriental languages in early modern Europe.2 Deusing read medicine in Leiden between 1630 and 1637, and resided in the house of the celebrated orientalist Jacobus Golius (1596-1667) along with other promising young men who took private lessons from him.3 Deusing learned Arabic from Golius and was given access to his teacher’s extensive library of oriental manuscripts, the majority of which were collected in the Ottoman Empire during Golius’s stay there. The evidence from Deusing’s personal library suggests that Golius tasked him with copying, compiling and translating oriental texts from his own and the Univesity library.

For more information contact [email protected] 1 Company Culture: Information, Scholarship, and the East India Company Settlements 1660-1720s Anna E. Winterbottom Submitted for PhD examination University of London July 2010 2 ABSTRACT I explore how knowledge was created and circulated in and between the settlements of the early English East India Company. I aim: to demonstrate connections between scholarship and early colonialism; to highlight the role of non-elite actors in transferring skills and techniques; and to map global knowledge networks based on systems of patronage that cut across national, ethnic, and social boundaries. Chapter 1 uses the life of Samuel Baron, a half-Dutch, half-Vietnamese factor, spy, and broker for the EIC, client of the rulers of Siam and Tonkin, and author of the Description of Tonqueen to examine the importance of passeurs culturels or go-betweens to both the European trading companies and Asian rulers in the period and their role in transmitting geographical and ethnographic information. Chapter 2 examines the local and international botanical and medical networks of two Company surgeons in Madras, based on collections in the Natural History Museum and the surgeons' correspondence with the apothecary James Petiver.
