  • Carriages & Coaches
    Carriages & Coaches By Ralph Straus Carriages & Coaches Chapter the First THE PRIMITIVE VEHICLE “This is a traveller, sir, knows men and Manners, and has plough’d up sea so far, Till both the poles have knock’d; has seen the sun Take coach, and can distinguish the colour Of his horses, and their kinds.” Beaumont and Fletcher. IT has been suggested that although in a generality of cases nature has forestalled the ingenious mechanician, man for his wheel has had to evolve an apparatus which has no counterpart in his primitive environment—in other words, that there is nothing in nature which corresponds to the wheel. Yet even the most superficial inquiry into the nature of the earliest vehicles must do much to refute such a suggestion. Primitive wheels were simply thick logs cut from a tree-trunk, probably for firewood. At some time or another these logs must have rolled of their own accord from a higher to a lower piece of ground, and from man’s observation of this simple phenomenon must have come the first idea of a wheel. If a round object could roll of its own accord, it could also be made to roll. Yet it is to be noticed that the earliest methods of locomotion, other than those purely muscular, such as walking and riding, knew nothing of wheels. Such methods depended primarily upon the enormously significant discovery that a man could drag a heavier weight than he could carry, and what applied to a man also applied to a beast. Possibly such discovery followed on the mere observation of objects being carried down the stream of some river, and perhaps a rudely constructed raft should be considered to be the earliest form of vehicle.

In her wide correspondence with mothers in regard to the training of children, she dis- covered the need of a book giving practical advice about pictures for children. A similar report came from the libraries, where the same need had long been noticed at the consulting-desks. The call from art educators and pubhc school teachers has been equally urgent. As the custom of hanging pictures in the schoolroom has become almost universal, the demand has arisen for helpful information in matters of art. I am especially grateful to Mr. Henry Turner Bailey, editor of the School Arts Magazine, and Mr. James Frederick Hopkins, director of the Massachusetts Normal Art School, for their words of encouragement and counsel.

Vereniging van Antwerpse Bibliofielen, Antwerpen 2000-2001 Zie voor verantwoording: https://www.dbnl.org/tekst/_gul005200001_01/colofon.php Let op: werken die korter dan 140 jaar geleden verschenen zijn, kunnen auteursrechtelijk beschermd zijn. i.s.m. 7 [De Gulden Passer 2000-2001] Woord vooraf Ruim een halve eeuw geleden begon de bibliograaf Prosper Arents aan de realisatie van zijn vermetel plan om de bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens virtueel te reconstrueren. In 1961 publiceerde hij in Noordgouw een bondig maar nog steeds lezenswaardig verslag over de stand, op dat ogenblik, van zijn werkzaamheden onder de titel De bibliotheek van Pieter Pauwel Rubens. Toen hij in 1984 op hoge leeftijd overleed, had hij vele honderden titels achterhaald, onderzocht en bibliografisch beschreven. Persklaar kon men zijn notities echter allerminst noemen, iets wat hij overigens zelf goed besefte. In 1994 slaagden Alfons Thijs en Ludo Simons erin onderzoeksgelden van de Universiteit Antwerpen / UFSIA ter beschikking te krijgen om Arents' gegevens electronisch te laten verwerken. Lia Baudouin, classica van vorming, die deze moeilijke en omvangrijke taak op zich nam, beperkte zich niet tot het invoeren van de titels, maar heeft ook bijkomende exemplaren opgespoord, Arents' bibliografische verwijzingen nagekeken en aangevuld en de uitgegeven correspondentie van P.P. Rubens opnieuw gescreend inzake lectuurgegevens. Een informele werkgroep, bestaande uit Arnout Balis, Frans Baudouin, Jacques de Bie, Pierre Delsaerdt, Marcus de Schepper, Ludo Simons en Alfons Thijs, begeleidde L. Baudouin bij haar ‘monnikenwerk’. Na het verstrijken van het mandaat van de onderzoekster bleef toch nog heel wat werk te verrichten om het geheel persklaar te maken.

Celebrating its 40th anniversary during the 2010–11 academic year, the Lawrence London Centre has impacted decades of students and remains the most popular off-campus study choice for Lawrence students. It is my pleasure to introduce the Ruby Jubilee Chronicle, a book that commemorates and celebrates this important anniversary milestone.
