  • William Stukeley and the Gout
    Medical History, 1992, 36: 160-186. WILLIAM STUKELEY AND THE GOUT by KEVIN J. FRASER * Gout was an ubiquitous disease in Georgian England. Although its victims were often immobilized at home for weeks on end, it was not, however, entirely unwelcome. Predominately a male disease, because of its frequency in the corridors of power and association with extravagant lifestyles, it was perceived as socially desirable. Moreover, there was the belief that the gouty were protected from more life- threatening disorders such as palsy, dropsy or apoplexy. Physicians were therefore often reluctant to treat attacks ofacute gout. Such therapeutic nihilism was convenient as gout had been considered the opprobrium medicorum since ancient times and many were prepared to suffer their attacks obediently. Others continued to search for a cure, looking beyond a disturbance of the four bodily humours for the cause of the disease. Pamphleteers fed the huge public appetite for such information, and the diaries and letters ofthe period contain frequent references to gout. However, these accounts often leave some uncertainty about the diagnosis, as most other forms ofarthritis were yet to be distinguished from gout. William Stukeley's descriptions of his own gout are, therefore, of particular importance, for they leave no doubt about the diagnosis.' Not only do they provide * Kevin J.

  • English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: a Work in Progress Listing
    English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: A Work in Progress Listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. The Cambridge History of Libraries in Britain and Ireland (2006) contains much relevant information in this field, summarising existing scholarship, and references to this have been included in individual entries below where appropriate.

  • The Heberden Oration, 1961

THE HEBERDEN ORATION, 1961 WILLIAM ILEBERDEN 6ultimus Romanorum: medics vere Hippocraticus' BY THE RT. HON. THE LORD COHEN OF BIRKENHEAD, P.R.S.H., M.D., D.Sc., LL.D., F.R.C.P., F.S.A. Past-President of the Heberden Society I am deeply grateful for the enviable privilege and honour of delivering the Heberden Oration. I have chosen to speak of William Heberden, Senior, from whom we as a society derive our name, because it seems to me appropriate that in the saga of our Orations one at least should be devoted to an assessment of Heberden's work. My sub-titles are derived from two contemporary copyright. assessments. Heberden attended Samuel Johnson in his final illness in 1783-4. Of this Boswell wrote: Dr. Johnson being asked in his last illness what physician he had sent for, "Dr. Heberden", replied he, "ultimus romanorutm, the last of our learned physicians". Soemmerring, in his preface to the German edition of the "Commentaries", published in http://ard.bmj.com/ Frankfurt in 1804, named Heberden medics vere Hippocraticus-a sentiment echoed by Austin Dobson, who in his "Last Essays" (1921) included one on Heberden entitled "The 18th Century Hippocrates". Sir William Osler described Heberden as "the English Celsus"-a tribute not simply to his medical, on September 28, 2021 by guest. Protected but also to his classical scholarship. The earlier editions of the "Encyclopaedia Britannica" gave him a brief notice, but he disappeared after the 1Ith edition in 1910.

  • Commemoration of Benefactors
    St John’s College Chapel Souvent me Souvient Commemoration of Benefactors Sunday 1 May 2016 ORDER OF SERVICE HYMN ¶Stand Thy hand, O God, has guided Thy flock, from age to age; The wondrous tale is written, Full clear, on every page; Our fathers owned thy goodness, And we their deeds record; And both of this bear witness; One Church, one Faith, one Lord. Thy heralds brought glad tidings To greatest, as to least; They bade men rise, and hasten To share the great King’s feast; And this was all their teaching, In every deed and word, To all alike proclaiming One Church, one Faith, one Lord. Through many a day of darkness, Through many a scene of strife, The faithful few fought bravely To guard the nation’s life. Their gospel of redemption, Sin pardoned, man restored, Was all in this enfolded, One Church, one Faith, one Lord. And we, shall we be faithless? Shall hearts fail, hands hang down? Shall we evade the conflict, And cast away our crown? Not so: in God’s deep counsels Some better thing is stored; We will maintain, unflinching, One Church, one Faith, one Lord. Thy mercy will not fail us, Nor leave thy work undone; With thy right hand to help us, Thy victory shall be won; And then, by men and angels, Thy name shall be adored, And this shall be their anthem, One Church, one Faith, one Lord. Words Edward Plumptre Tune THORNBURY (1821–1891) Basil Harwood (1859–1949) SENTENCE Minister The memory of the righteous shall remain evermore: And shall not be afraid of any evil report.

PAGE & COMPANY LONDON METHVEN & CO MDCCCXCIX Education Add'l GIFT -r37 EDUG. iQOfQ TO MY MOTHER 540 PREFACE CO much has been written about Cambridge ^ that it is difficult to say anything new ; and this little book is therefore merely an attempt to put together recorded facts in an orderly way. I have followed throughout the arrangement adopted by Mr Wells in his book on " Oxford and its Colleges," and have also borrowed his method of marking the portraits of college worthies with an asterisk. Every writer on Cambridge must be under a great obligation to Willis and Clark's Architectural History of the University ; and Mr Atkinson's lately published book gives a singular completeness to the authorities for the architectural side of the question. Building at Cambridge, however, is a complex problem,—the history of Clare and the University Church are cases in point—and to follow out carefully every date and mark every alteration would be beyond these limits. My endeavour has been, therefore, to indicate the general date of every building rather than to assign a date to every particular part of its construction.

  • Introduction: the Succession in History and Theory Pp. (1-12)
    Notes Introduction: The Succession in History and Theory pp. (1-12) 1. Cooke, History of the Successions, p. 27. The story also figures in Shake­ speare's history plays, having been taken by him from Holinshed's Chronicles and used in Henry W, Part 2. In Shakespeare's account of the deathbed scene between Henry and his heir apparent Hal, Henry says 'God knows, my son, By what bypaths and indirect crooked ways I met this crown' (IV, v, 183-5). For Shakespeare, however, Henry IV was not so much uncertain of his right as he was burdened by his gUilt. The king agonises over his claim to the throne and asks God's forgiveness for having taken it from Richard IT: 'How I came by the crown, 0 God forgive, .. .' (IV, v, 18). Hal, on the other hand, is free of his father's misgivings. 'My gracious liege,' he says, 'You won it, wore it, kept it; gave it me. Then plain and right must my possession be, .. .' (IV, v, 220-2). 2. Twysden, Certaine Considerations, p. 62. 3. In the eleventh century William I, a bastard, claimed as a conqueror and by right of nomination, the promise of the throne having been made to him by Edward the Confessor; William Rufus and Henry I succeeded in tum to their father's throne despite the better hereditary claim of their elder brother, Robert; the Empress Matilda was forced to yield her right to her cousin, Stephen, who seized the throne and enforced his claim by citing his election by the barons; and Matilda's son, Henry IT, took the crown at Stephen's death in 1154, pursuant to a treaty concluded the year before.
