  • Scientific Print and Its Problems During the Late Nineteenth Century
    Hist. Sci., xlviii (2010) SERIALITY AND THE SEARCH FOR ORDER: SCIENTIFIC PRINT AND ITS PROBLEMS DURING THE LATE NINETEENTH CENTURY Alex Csiszar Harvard University “I have been hunting every where in vain for Godron”, reported Joseph Dalton Hooker to Charles Darwin in March 1855, “I shall not rest till I have ferretted it out”. Hooker was referring not to a person, nor to a plant specimen that might have been in the Herbarium at Kew Gardens, but to a mislaid text.1 Darwin had sought Hooker’s guidance after stumbling on a footnote in a collection of botanical memoirs; it referred to a work called “De l’espèce et des races” by someone named Godron. Such a title alone might have been enough to attract his attention, but the footnote also implied that this work reported on several instances of variations in pear seeds derived from a single parent. Darwin had become intrigued; having worked out a great deal of his theory of natural selection by 1855, he was keen not only to gather more evidence, but also to gauge the progress of scientific opinion on the variation of species in general, especially as he looked forward to begin drafting his “species book”. Darwin jotted down the title in his “Books to be Read” notebook. But before he could read it, Darwin would need to findit. 2 The techniques and tools scientists have used to seek out and sort scientific informa- tion in print comprise a significant, though largely unexplored, domain of practice for historians of modern science. The methods used by Darwin and his contemporaries for locating relevant print sources were — as they would continue to be — varied, complex, and often serendipitous; they might sometimes involve consulting indexes and catalogues, but they also included trawling the contents of serials and titles of monographs on the shelves of personal and institutional libraries, following the trail of footnotes and lists of references, and (perhaps most importantly) corresponding with colleagues, booksellers, and friends for guidance, new leads, and off-the-cuff reviews.

La fondation de la Mediaeval Academy of America à Harvard et de sa revue Speculum en 1925, ainsi que le don de John D.

  • Stephen G. Nichols PHILOLOGY AS BLOOD SPORT: the ROMANIC
    Stephen G. Nichols PHILOLOGY AS BLOOD SPORT: THE ROMANIC REVIEW’S FIRST DECADE t is not exactly fashionable today to call our feld Romance philology. IDescribing a colleague as a “philologist” in fact might well elicit a less than cheerful response. It’s even become vieux jeu to call ourselves literary critics. So how are we to refer to our métier in an era when so many departments have abandoned the term “French literature” to describe themselves in favor of portmanteau rubrics like “Department of French, Francophone, Post-colonial Studies”? One look at the tortured efforts to defne a position in the MLA job listings makes clear how fragmented our domain has become. We now talk in terms of subspecialties—Feminist studies, Francophone, queer theory, post- structural theory (does anyone still do pre-structuralist theory?). And still, most of us do have a dim sense that our feld once was known as “Romance philology.” And we would agree, I believe, that as a discipline, ours is an exacting one. But how, exactly, would we defne it today? Most likely, we would parse it either as the work of the individual scholar responding to a particular vision of humanist activity, or as a phenomenon of institutional authority. Both views produce a history of practice, much as René Wellek once sought to write a history of modern criticism by cumulative analyses of the work of individual critics on one hand and schools of criticism on the other. I wonder, though, if it would occur to us to ask how a discipline like Romance philology emerges in a given time and place as an ongoing series of represen- tational events in a carefully defned framework? What is counter-intuitive here is the idea that a discipline is less a function of people per se than of a continuous stream of written communications.

  • List of American Students at the University of Leipzig, 1781 to 1914
    American Students at the University of Leipzig, 1781-1914 Compiled by Anja Werner, [email protected] Last updated on June 5, 2013. This alphabetical list was taken from the register of the University of Leipzig, which is preserved at the Leipzig University Archives (LUA). It contains the names and registration information of American students between 1781 and 1914. Included are hearers and visitors who were traced in secondary sources, foreigners who were traced as regular students, and women whose names were found in the Leipzig hearer list, in the folders on female students, and in secondary sources. Some entries contain cross-references to other Leipzig-Americans and to Halle- Americans to highlight networking connections. The names that women acquired through marriage are added in square brackets; for the most part, women are listed under their maiden names. Biographical Information was added when available; abbreviated references refer to the bibliography (see also below) and list of dissertations of Leipzig Americans in the Transatlantic World of Higher Education. Dissertations typically contain brief vitas. Entries appear as they were, that is, as a mixture of German and Englis. Obvious spelling mistakes were corrected, information to some extent standardized, and contradictory additional information added in square brackets. In cases when students registered more than once, the information was molded into one entry.

  • The Virgin and the Dynamo: the Growth of Medieval Studies in North America 1870–1930
    The Virgin and the Dynamo: the growth of medieval studies in North America 1870–1930 WILLIAM J. COURTENAY IN THE EARLY fall of 1870 Henry Adams, having recently returned from a disappointing summer in Europe and looking forward to building a literary-political career for himself in Washington, went out from Boston to Cambridge at the urging of family and friends to discuss with Charles W. Eliot the latterʼs invitation to join the small Department of History at Harvard as assistant professor of medieval history. ʻBut, Mr. President,ʼ urged Adams, ʻI know nothing about Medieval History.ʼ With the courteous manner and bland smile so familiar for the next generation of Americans, Mr. Eliot mildly but firmly replied, ʻIf you will point out to me any one who knows more, Mr. Adams, I will appoint him.ʼ The answer was neither logical nor convincing, but Adams could not meet it without overstepping his privileges. He could not say that, under the circumstances, the appointment of any professor at all seemed to him unnecessary.1 Thus began a seven-year period in the life of Henry Adams as lecturer in History 2, which bridged the gap between Ephraim Whitman Gurneyʼs lectures in classics and Henry Warren Tor- reyʼs lectures in modern history. His description of his first-yearʼs experience strikes a familiar chord in the memory of almost every teacher. For the next nine months the Assistant Professor had no time to waste on comforts or amusements. He exhausted all his strength in trying to keep one day ahead of his duties.
