Catalogue One Hundred and Ninety-Four ______ Catalogue One Hundred and Ninety-four __________________________________________________________________________ PART I - Books published before 1716 1 CUNAEUS, Petrus. [pseud. Peter Van Der KUN] De Republyk der Hebreen, Of Gemeenebest der Joden. In drie Boeken, door den Geleerden Heer Petrus Cunaeus... Onder de Wet der Ceremonien en Dienstbaar Jerusalem.. [In two volumes.] Wilhelmus Goeree, Amsterdam, 1682/83. £275 2vol., pp.(30)518(13) index & directions to binder; (22)558(24) index & directions to binder; extra engraved titles in both volumes & 36 maps & plates, many folding, some double-page, including maps of Jerusalem & the Holy Land and a fine Tower of Babel; a very fresh set, the plates in fine condition, in contemporary calf, rebacked with modern morocco labels. First published in 1617, Kun's history may be largely a work of fiction but his description of the ancient Hebrew kingdom as a model of republican government was hugely influential, providing a legitimising historical precedent for the Dutch Republic in a European world dominated by ideas of the monarchy and the divine right of kings. 2 GELLIUS, Aulus.

    Introduction The records listed in this volume are what might be described as central records of the College – the minute books, the registers, the statutes and similar material, generated directly by the Provost and Fellows and the New Governing Body. There are, however, equally central records listed elsewhere. The Foundation and Consolidation Charters, and other royal charters, were listed by Noel Blakiston as ECR 39. He included other central records, particularly relating to the building of the College, in ECR 38 and ECR 49. Accounting records to 1642, including the audit rolls up to 1505, when they were replaced by books, are listed as ECR 61 and later accounting records as ECR 62. Papers produced by individual Provosts, Vice-Provosts and Fellows (though there are very few of this last category) will be found as COLL/P, COLL/VP or COLL/FELL as appropriate. The papers of officers such as the Bursar (COLL/B), Registrar(COLL/REG) and other College servants are also separately listed. The catalogue of the College’s archives (now COLL/ARCH/1) compiled in 1724 by Thomas Martin (1697 – 1771) mentions the central records that existed at the time but does not list them individually. Binding, indexing and annotation of the registers in particular show clearly that their importance and value were recognised. Seal books, minute books and lease books were also carefully preserved. However, unbound papers were less well served by a storage system that was essentially organised by estate and were allowed to accumulate in considerable confusion until very roughly sorted by Noel Blakiston into boxes covering ten year periods.

I have added the titles of those hooks of which I know, but do not possess copies: these I have distinguished with an asterisk (*) in the hope that I may hear of copies of them for sale or exchange. I have endeavoured as far as possible—and with much success —to discover and record the names of the authors of anonymous books and pamphlets and of the editors of the ephemeral School Magazines, but I have felt bound, in printing this Bibliography, in many cases to respect their anonymity. There are, however, many anonymous authors still to be identified, and I shall gratefully receive any information on this or other subjects by way of addenda to or corrigenda of the Bibliography. I have intentionally omitted all School text-books from the collection. L. V. HARCOURT, 14 Berkeley Square, London, W, iv»21'1f>"?6 AN ETON BIBLIOGRAPHY 1560.

The majority of rowing’s participants pick it up later in life, compared to many other sports, and it is rarely an athlete’s first sport, but is one that often offers them second chances. Institutionally, rowing is also rarely the focus of much attention in the athletic department. Despite such apparent drawbacks however, rowers are as passionate and devoted to their pursuit as any highly paid, well-publicized

  • Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness
    Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness Cameron Michael Kiosoglous A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN HUMAN DEVELOPMENT Paul D. Renard (Chair) Gabriella M. Belli Marcie Boucouvalas Clare D. Klunk Friday, April 5, 2013 Falls Church, Virginia. Keywords Professionalization of sport Sports coaching effectiveness and expertise Sports coaching development Evaluating sport coaching success Reflective practices in sport coaching Sports Coaching Through the Ages with an Empirical Study of Predictors of Rowing Coaching Effectiveness Cameron Kiosoglous Abstract Coaching effectiveness is a result of a coach getting the best out of the people and resources in their environment. For coaches, learning from experience is vital in a role that is a complex, dynamic and multifaceted process of balancing fun and winning where one cannot be sure if results will go according to plan. At the Olympic level, due to commercialization more money is being spent than ever before on developing more professional and effective training systems to maximize athletic performances. Medals won determine how a coach is evaluated and with more nations competition at a higher level, success is becoming even more competitive. More qualified and adaptable coaches are required to cope with the demands of international competition. The literature has been extensively examined based on the research question: to what extent is coaching success predicted by a coaches’ ability to self-reflect on past experiences? The purpose of this study was to demonstrate that if coaches who are highly self- reflective and have successful athletic and coaching experiences would be more likely to have future coaching success than those who either were not self-reflective or had less success in the past.

MDDELL, C.B. " • 1TITH PORTRAIT NEW YORK P. DUTTON AND COMPANY 1 1911 n.\o$\ Z. 57.5 < TO MY SISTER G. F. E. S. PREFACE The following pages contain, as may be inferred from the title, the story of an ordinary life. As regards the biographical part of the book, it deals mainly with the surface of things, touching but slightly on the graver thoughts and emotions which may give to the most commonplace biography the value of a "human document." Many persons will think that a record so trivial is not worth publishing. But there is undoubtedly a considerable class who may be amused and even interested by any memoir honestly written, and it is among these that I hope to find some readers. Numerous as are the autobiographies of " ordinary mortals," they generally depend more on anecdotes and " persons I have seen " than on the actual life-stories of the writers, which are often sketchily handled.

Much of this has understandably been directed toward the Great War of 1914-1918: understandably because various centenary anniversaries would occur in contemporary times and huge numbers of families, only distant by two or three generations, were tragically affected.
