THE Council of the Royal Medical and Chirurgical Society deems it proper to state, that the Society does not hold itself in any way responsible for the statements, reasonings, or opinions set forth in the various papers, which, on grounds of general merit, are thought worthy of being published in its Transactions. THE Council having decided upon publishing " Proceedings of the Society," are anxious to lay the following Regulations before the Fellows: That as a general rule, the Proceedings will be issued every two months, subject to variations dependent on the extent of matter to be printed. That Copies of the Proceedings will be sent, postage free, to every Fellow of the Society entitled to receive the Transactions. The Proceedings of the Society" may be obtained of Mr. Adlard, Bartholomew Close, on prepayment of an annual subscription of five shillings, which may be transmitted either by post-office order, or in postage stamps ;-this will include the expense of conveyance by post to any part of the United Kingdom; to other places they will be sent, carriage free, through a bookseller, or by post, the receiver paying the foreign charges. That a notice of every paper will appear in the Proceedings. Authors will be at liberty, on sending their communications, to intimate to the Secretary whether they wish them to appear in the Proceedings only, or, in the Proceedings and Transactions; and in the latter case they will be expected to furnish an Abstract of the com- munication. That, in future, copies of the Proceedings will be furnished to the Journals at as early a period as possible after their publication, in lieu of the Abstracts formerly furnished by the Secretaries. At the same time the Council do not think it at all desirable to inter- fere with such Reports of the papers read before the Society, and the discussions upon them, as the Journals may obtain through their authorised Reporters.

  • Male Novel Reading of the 1790S, Gothic Literature, and Northanger
    Male Novel t Reading of the 1790s, :L Gothic Literature, i and Northanger Abbey ALBERT C. SEARS Albert C. Sears is a doctoral candidate in English at Lehigh University. His dissertation investigates the Victorian sensation novel in the literary marketplace. Bookseller records from Timothy Stevens of Cirencester, Gloucestershire, and Thomas Hookham and James Carpenter of London offer new insights into the fiction reading habits of men dur- ing the 1790s.1 Indeed, the Stevens records suggest that Henry Tilney’s emphatic statement in Northanger Abbey (written 1798) that men “‘read nearly as many [novels] as women’” (107) may not be entirely fictional.2 What is more, male patrons of Stevens’s bookshop and library seem to have particularly enjoyed the Gothic as did Tilney, who states: “The person, be it gentleman or lady, who has not pleasure in a good novel, must be intolerably stupid. I have read all Mrs. Radcliffe’s works, and most of them with great pleasure. The Mysteries of Udolpho, when I had once begun it, I could not lay down again;—I remember finishing it in two days—my hair standing on end the whole time.” (106) However, while Austen’s depiction of male novel reading may be accurate for Gloucestershire, the Hookham records yield little evi- dence that the majority of men in fashionable London enjoyed novels as much as Tilney. 106 PERSUASIONS No. 21 The Stevens records, which extend from 1780 to 1806, do show that men borrowed and bought more fiction than women during the last decade of the eighteenth century. During the 1790s, the shop had approximately seventy male patrons (includ- ing book clubs) who borrowed and/or purchased fiction.

  • Rulers of Opinion Women at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, 1799
    Rulers of Opinion Women at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, 1799-1812 Harriet Olivia Lloyd UCL Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History of Science 2018 1 I, Harriet Olivia Lloyd, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis examines the role of women at the Royal Institution of Great Britain in its first decade and contributes to the field by writing more women into the history of science. Using the method of prosopography, 844 women have been identified as subscribers to the Royal Institution from its founding on 7 March 1799, until 10 April 1812, the date of the last lecture given by the chemist Humphry Davy (1778- 1829). Evidence suggests that around half of Davy’s audience at the Royal Institution were women from the upper and middle classes. This female audience was gathered by the Royal Institution’s distinguished patronesses, who included Mary Mee, Viscountess Palmerston (1752-1805) and the chemist Elizabeth Anne, Lady Hippisley (1762/3-1843). A further original contribution of this thesis is to explain why women subscribed to the Royal Institution from the audience perspective. First, Linda Colley’s concept of the “service élite” is used to explain why an institution that aimed to apply science to the “common purposes of life” appealed to fashionable women like the distinguished patronesses. These women were “rulers of opinion,” women who could influence their peers and transform the image of a degenerate ruling class to that of an élite that served the nation.

  • Medical Societies
    Wo MEDICAL SOCIETIES: THEIR ORGANIZATION AND THE NATURE OF THEIR i WORK. " This may be considered the birthday of medical honors in America," wrote the Provost of the Univer sity of Pennsylvania, in recording the first medical commencement held in its college hall on June 21, 1768, and the occasion did mark the beginning of a new era for medicine.1 Two years before, a State Medical Society had been formed in New Jersey,2 but with this and one or two trivial exceptions, no attempt had been made to organize or instruct medical men on this side of the Atlantic. Previous to this period, those who desired a medical diploma were obliged to seek it in the mother country ; but out of the three J thousand physicians then in practice, it has been esti mated that not over four hundred had received the degree of M. D. from a medical college.8 Many of the practitioners of medicine were also clergymen, 1 Extracts from the Life and Correspondence of Rev. William Smith, D. D.
