  • Notes on Contributors / Remembering Roy Porter
    Notes on Contributors / Remembering Roy Porter Not only was Roy Porter a brilliant scholar and a dedicated colleague, he was also a remarkable, generous and idiosyncratic individual – in fact, he was exactly the kind of person about whom Roy himself loved to write. We were all lucky that our lives were enriched by his presence. In this section, conventionally reserved for descriptions of ourselves, many of us have also added favourite memories of Roy, or moments when his influence shaped our ideas and careers. Roberta Bivins is Wellcome Lecturer in the History of Medicine at Cardiff University. The topic of her most recent book,Alternative Medicine? A Global Approach (2007), was suggested to her by Roy Porter many years ago. She is now studying the reciprocal impact of immigration and medical research/healthcare delivery in the US and UK since the Second World War. ‘As a nervous PhD student, I came to Roy via the most tenuous of connections: my American supervisor happened to know Roy’s wife. It is typical of his generosity that Roy invited me to London sight unseen, simply as a favour to his wife’s acquaintance. Dutifully, he scheduled regular lunches with me to check on my progress. Alongside the sandwiches and the inspiration, Roy offered me, in his inimitable way, a much- needed sense of belonging. One lunchtime, he dropped into his chair, grinned, and reported: “My mother has a question for you: did the royals use acupuncture?” I was surprised – but the idea that Roy’s mum knew all about my dissertation suddenly made me feel right at home in London.

  • No. 26 Jonathan Israel, Radical Enlightenment
    H-France Review Volume 2 (2002) Page 105 H-France Review Vol. 2 (February, 2002), No. 26 Jonathan Israel, Radical Enlightenment: Philosophy and the Making of Modernity, 1650-1750. Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press, 2001. xxii + 810 pp. Maps, tables, plates, notes, bibliography, and index. $45.00 US (cl). ISBN 0-19-820608-9. Review by J.B. Shank, University of Minnesota. Was ist Aufklärung? Robert Darnton recently began a lecture on this topic by asking his audience to repeat the question, only this time with feeling. Jonathan Israel would not have been amused. He finds nothing tired or stale about this classic question of European intellectual history, nor does he see any problem with the classic "men and ideas" approach to it that Darnton has built a career critiquing. Radical Enlightenment, Israel's magisterial history of the emergence of Enlightenment thought in Europe, is nothing if not a throwback to a bygone era when, to borrow from Darnton again, intellectual historians were scholars who took dusty philosophical tomes off library shelves and taught readers how to link them together. Yet despite its frustrating traditionalism and maddening dismissal of an entire generation of newer Enlightenment scholarship, Radical Enlightenment is an important book. It especially offers an important chronological and geographical reconceptualization of the origins of the Enlightenment that scholars, whatever their historiographical stripe, will ignore only at their peril. But will anyone actually read the book? And can the honest reviewer actually recommend that one do so? It is not that Israel is a bad writer. Quite the contrary, he proves to be a very engaging guide to the many topics he presents.

The Foundation bears no responsibility for the opinions expressed, which are mine alone. K.T. Lord Wolfson of Marylebone Trustee of the Wolfson Foundation from 1955 and Chairman 1972-2010 © The Wolfson Foundation FOREWORD The year 1972 was a pivotal one for the Wolfson Foundation: my father, Lord Wolfson of Marylebone, became Chairman and the Wolfson History Prize was established. 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.

  • Reading List:The English Reformation C1527-1590
    The English Reformation c1527-1590 How did state and people respond to religious change? This is a full, but by no mean comprehensive, reading list for the Reformation, covering England, Wales and Ireland. The material is mixed: some of the items are paperback books, most (though, unfortunately not all) of which are relatively reasonably priced. Many items, however, are journal articles which you will primarily find in, or via, a university library (it is possible to ‘rent’ or buy access to individual journal articles through the publishers’ websites, but this can be pricey). Many institutions now offer access to JSTOR (the main repository of journal articles online) to alumni for free; some institutions (like my own) also offer access to teachers in the local area. So it is worth exploring both of these options. Remember that JSTOR has a ‘moving wall’ of usually five years – in other words, you will only get access to articles that were published five or more years ago. However, if you have full access to a university’s library, you can usually get access to more recent material through the journal’s publishers itself, e.g. Cambridge University Press, Oxford University Press (although via the library catalogue). As with all things, what is available is dependent on what subscriptions the university has (and journal subscriptions are very expensive) and whether journals have digitised their back issues (most have by now). Generally, these lists are organised with general/introductory material at the beginning of each section and then more specialised material later on. Some of the larger topics are broken down into subsections (organised on the same basis).

  • Early Modern European Cultural and Intellectual History
    Updated summer 2011, with special thanks for many excellent suggestions to Oded Rabinovitch. 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--known in the books as France 1461-1789 and Intellectual History of Western and Central Europe 1500-1800 and which I call 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 particularly important. Please read the starred items relevant to your track and 1-3 other items which can be read more cursorily; students will learn about further books on the list through hearing the reports from others in the group.

This essay is a critical historiographical overview of the ongoing debate about the role of the Protestant Reformation in the process of ‘the disenchantment of the world’. It considers the development of this thesis in the work of Max Weber and subsequent scholars, its links with wider claims about the origins of modernity, and the challenges to this influential paradigm that have emerged in the last twenty-five years. Setting the literature on England within its wider European context, it explores the links between Protestantism and the transformation of assumptions about the sacred and the supernatural, and places renewed emphasis on the equivocal and ambiguous legacy left by the upheavals of the sixteenth and seven- teenth centuries. Attention is also paid to the ways in which the Reformation converged with other intellec- tual, cultural, political, and social developments which cumulatively brought about subtle, but decisive, transformations in individual and collective mentalities.
