    The Conspicuous Body: Science and Fashion in Early Modern England Sadie Harrison UCL Volume I Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 DECLARATION I, Sadie Harrison, 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. Signature: Date: 2 Abstract This thesis examines the relationship between science and fashion in the early modern period. It brings together the disciplines of fashion history and the history of science to understand the complicated role that proper appearances played in the signalling of credit in seventeenth and eighteenth-century England and France. In the Renaissance, clothing was an ornament used to display virtue and signal learning, often through textiles and accessories showing natural objects from flowers to sea-monsters. In the seventeenth century, this culture of fashion was challenged when members of the Royal Society were complicit in the introduction of the three- piece suit and a new notion that men should dress in a sober style. The Society was complicit in positioning ornament and fashion in opposition to this sobriety associated with proper masculinity and proper knowledge-making, The thesis argues that this opposition between ‘fashion’ and science became a commonplace in the eighteenth century. Various authors attacked those who engaged in fashionable dress as improper or unreliable thinkers. Many accusations were levelled against women. However, women resisted these changes and asserted their status as knowers of nature. They used textile design to express their natural knowledge.

  • 2010 Centre for the Study of the Renaissance Director's Report
    Director’s Report for the Advisory Board of 2010 Centre for the Study of the Renaissance University of Warwick 2009-10 has been another fruitful year for Warwick’s Centre for the Study of the Renaissance (henceforth CSR). Highlights have included the start of a new Mellon- funded collaborative programme with the Newberry Library and the successful major grant application to AHRC for a collaborative project with the Warburg Institute on Vernacular Aristotelianism in Early Modern Europe. Recruitment on our taught MA is experiencing an upward curve, and the notable presence of Warwick researchers at the Renaissance Society of America’s Annual Meeting in Venice has ensured the CSR continues to play a key part in the University’s international scholarly profile. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS TEACHING and POSTGRADUATE TRAINING ACTIVITIES ..........................................4 Centre-based postgraduate teaching...........................................................................4 Skills sessions open to students based elsewhere in the Faculty.................................4 National and international training................................................................................5 RESEARCH ....................................................................................................................6 The John Nichols Project (P.I.

Edward Gleed (1916–1990) was photographed by Toni Frissell (1907–1988), an American photographer, known for her fashion photography and war imagery. In this 1945 photograph, Gleed is wearing his uniform and equipment of a Second World War fighter pilot, posing in front of a P–51D Mustang airplane. During the Second World War, Gleed was educated at Tuskegee University (formerly Tuskegee Institute), located near Tuskegee, Alabama; hence, the moniker Tuskegee Airmen, who were the first African–American military aviators and aircrew in the United States Army Air Forces.

No coincidence there. History was my father’s passion and primary source of intellectual stimulation. History books were his daily companions. Of all the Foundation’s many activities, none gave him greater pleasure than the History Prize. It is an immense sadness that he is not with us to celebrate the fortieth anniversary.

  • Body and Soul
    CHAPTER EIGHT Body and Soul JOAN FITZPATRICK In a treatise titled The Anatomv of Belial (1602), Robert Burton compares proper order to a body: God hath distinguished diverse members in one body: one from another, & set one aboue another, & placed them all in wonderfull maner. The head as a tower, the eies in the same as watchmen ... the toung as a porter to cal for that which is needfull, & to examine that which is doubtful, the eares as spies to harken & to listen, the hands as servitours & sould­ iers, the feet as messengers and porters to carry and recarry, the teeth as grinders of natures provision, the pallate as taster, the stomach as a cook-roome, wherin all things are prepared againe for the benefit of nature, & the whole body so to be preserued for the benefit of the soule.! Similar to Burton's conception of the bodv, and how it relates to the souL is Edmund Spenser's description of the House of Alma from his epic poem The Faerie Queene (1590). Lady Alma, who represents the soul, leads her guests through her" house," the body: And through the Hall there walked to and fro A iolly Yeoman, Marshall of the same, 152 HOTlY AND SOU Whose name was Appetite; he did bestow Both guestes and meate, when euer in the\ came, And knew them how to order without blame, As hIm the Stev.ard bad.

M. Warburg (1866–1929) of Hamburg. Warburg’s early researches centred on the signiIcance of classical civilization in the intellectual and social context of Renaissance art, but later came to embrace a wider Ield of cultural history. The Institute’s Library and its associated Photographic Collection now aim to provide the means of research into the processes by which one culture inJuences or is inJuenced by another. They seek to document the links between the thought, literature, art and institutions of post-classical Europe and those of Greece and Rome, and the effects of the Near East on Mediterranean civilization. The Library and Photographic Collection allow open access to their material and are so arranged as to facilitate interdisciplinary research in the humanities. The Library has four main divisions: social and political history; religion, history of science and philosophy; literature, books, libraries and education; history of art, classical art and archaeology. Subdivisions include the history of festivals and pageantry, the idea of Empire, historiography, the history of cosmology and astrology and their pictorial expression, ritual and myth, liturgy and religious orders, Platonic and Aristotelian traditions, Islamic and Judaic philosophy, emblematics, neo-Latin literature, the AR0506:AR0405.qxd 12/12/2006 14:27 Page II reception of classical literature, and the diffusion and inJuence of Greco-Roman art.

  • Early Modern European Intellectual and Cultural History
    Updated September 2019, with special thanks to Oded Rabinovitch and Anja Goeing. Reading lists for exam field preparations in Early modern France and Early modern European cultural and intellectual history Ann Blair; [email protected] Office: CGIS South Building S437, 1730 Cambridge St Phone: (617) 495-0752 This document offers a master reading list from which students will draw up individualized (and much shorter!) reading lists in preparing exams in two different but overlapping graduate fields in history—identified in lists of the fields of early modern France and early modern European intellectual and cultural history. As this joint document suggests, I typically combine the students preparing these two fields into one group for discussions every other week or so. Some weeks' readings are clearly divided into two tracks--early modern intellectual cultural and early modern France--but in many weeks the syllabus is common to both tracks, or with an additional set of readings for the French angle. Students will form their personal reading lists for their general exam field by selecting from and adding to the readings for each week according to their interests; borrowings from the other track are always welcome. The majority of the readings are secondary sources; if you have no experience with primary sources in these areas, please familiarize yourself with some of the primary sources on the list (these are bolded) or others that we agree upon. Starred items are useful places to start in a given section. Double-starred items I would classify as “required” common reading. 1 GENERAL REFERENCE Early modern French history--dictionaries and reference books Lucien Bely, Dictionnaire de l'Ancien Régime: royaume de France XVIe-XVIIIe (1996) François Bluche, Dictionnaire du grand siècle (1990) René and Suzanne Pillorget, France Baroque, France Renaissance (1995), vol.
