  • Bibliographic Information for Fifty-Three Unlocated Eighteenth-Century Items in Arnott and Robinson's English Theatrical
    Bibliographic Information for Fifty-three Unlocated Eighteenth-Century Items in Arnott and Robinson’s English Theatrical Literature, 1559-1900 By David Wallace Spielman In 1953, members of the Society for Theatre Research (STR) began the daunting task of revising Robert W. Lowe’s A Bibliographical Account of English Theatrical Literature (1888). In the first six years of the project, several editors came and went. As George Speaight says in his introduction, “the work proved too much for our part-time labours.”1 James Fullarton Arnott and John William Robinson were brought on board in 1959 to bring the project to completion. The resulting volume appeared in print in 1970 as English Theatrical Literature, 1559-1900: A Bibliography (hereafter A&R), one of the great achievements of the Society. A&R incorporates and substantially expands Lowe’s bibliography and has been a basic reference source for theatre historians for almost forty years. Its utility prompted John Cavanagh to continue the project up through 1985 in his British Theatre: A Bibliography, 1901 to 1985.2 Lowe personally examined all the items that he could, and Arnott and Robinson followed Lowe’s precedent in their revision and expansion. As they admit in their preface, however, the editors were not able to see everything listed in the bibliography (xii). They included some items based solely on information received from sources they deemed reliable. The amount of information provided for these items varies widely, and those with no library location supplied have long been a source of frustration to scholars. Eighteenth Century Collections Online (ECCO) has made full-text facsimile copies of a substantial number of these “unseen” items readily available.

  • The Value of Money in Eighteenth-Century England: Incomes, Prices, Buying Power— and Some Problems in Cultural Economics
    The Value of Money in Eighteenth-Century England: Incomes, Prices, Buying Power— and Some Problems in Cultural Economics Robert D. Hume &'453&(5 Robert D. Hume offers an empirical investigation of incomes, cost, artist remuneration, and buying power in the realm of long eighteenth-century cultural production and purchase. What was earned by writers, actors, singers, musicians, and painters? Who could afford to buy a book? Attend a play or opera? Acquire a painting? Only 6 percent of families had £100 per annum income, and only about 3 percent had £200. What is the “buying power” magnitude of such sums? No single multiplier yields a legitimate present-day equivalent, but a range of 200 –300 gives a rough sense of magnitude for most of this period. Novels are now thought of as a bourgeois phenomenon, but they cost 3s. per volume. A family with a £200 annual income would have to spend nearly a full day’s income to buy a four-volume novel, but only 12 percent for a play. The market for plays was natu - rally much larger, which explains high copyright payments to playwrights and very low payments for most novels—hence the large number of novels by women, who had few ways to earn money. From this investigation we learn two broad facts. First, that the earnings of most writers, actors, musicians, and singers were gener - ally scanty but went disproportionately to a few stars, and second, that most of the culture we now study is inarguably elite: it was mostly consumed by the top 1 per - cent or 0.5 percent of the English population.

  • GARRICKS JUBILEE.Pdf
    fr na A comprehensive — and occasionally hilarious—study of the three-day fes­ tival staged by David Garrick, the brilliant actor and manager of the Drury Lane Theatre in London, at Stratford-upon-Avon, in September, 1769. This was the first Shakespeare fes­ tival to engage national interest, and although its critics vilified it as a fiasco and a monumental example of bad taste, its defenders thought it a glorious occasion. James Boswell, a member of the latter group, de­ scribed it as being ((not a piece of farce . , but an elegant and truly classical celebration of the memory of Shakespeare." Reproduced on the stage in vary­ ing moods of glorification and satire, the Jubilee ultimately became en­ tangled in the very threads of Eng­ lish life.

Nussbaum, Chair This dissertation traces an alternative history of an understudied and often-maligned eighteenth-century genre: speech. Conventional narratives of the eighteenth century have tended to emphasize the increasing dominance of print, but my project recovers an active interest and confidence in spoken language. Despite a perception in the period that speech was transient, mutable, and vulnerable to corruption, I show that, paradoxically, eighteenth-century authors consistently turn to speech— both as a formal device and a conceptual trope—in order to legitimize their writing.
