Correspondence Letters to Davies Part I. Correspondence Scope and Content Note The correspondence numbers 3767 letters of which 2013 are carbon copies of letters from Davies, and 1754 are originals to him. The bulk date from 1931. A few earlier items relate to the Bibliography of British History (1928). Planning for this book began in 1909, and these represent responses from early contributors. Davies acquired them in 1923 when he was nominated editor of the book. There are also a few letters dating from 1921-23 relating to tutorial students at Oxford. It is evident, however, that on leaving Chicago in 1930 Davies disposed of his correspondence except the above, and the letters from Firth. For inclusion in the Library Catalogue of Manuscripts, the names of the historically important correspondents listed in Parts I and III of the Index-Outline Guide have been starred. The criteria used to distinguish these correspondents are: (1) for British persons, representation in the Dictionary of National Biography including supplements to 1985; and (2) for American persons, representation in the Dictionary of American Biography including supplements to 1965, together with such later persons as seem likely to be included in later supplements to that work. In short, general preeminence is the rule regardless of the significance of the correspondence in question. In the list of correspondents, British titles are shown, even when conferred after the correspondence was written. Women's married names are shown even when married after the correspondence took place. Letters are filed alphabetically by author; in the case of Davies's outgoing letters the order is alphabetical by addressee. Within each sub-group the order is chronological.

  • University Microfilms
    INFORMATION TO USERS This dissertation was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Notes to Preface
    Notes NOTES TO PREFACE 1. Norman Hamson, "The Two French Revolutions," The New York Review of Books 36, no. 6, p. 11. 2. The literature concerning the civil wars and the interregnum is very great indeed. For a summary of recent schools of thought, see R. C. Richardson, The Debate on the English Revolution Revisited, 2nd ed. (London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1989). A good general account of diverse areas of study from economics to music to ecclesiastical and legal affairs is Godfrey Davies, The Early Stuarts, 1603- 1660, 2nd ed. (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1959). The bibliography on pages 416-443 is very helpful. John S. Morrill's excellent bibliography, Seventeenth-Century Britain, 1603-1714 (Kent: Dawson/Archon Press, 1980), is a fine place to begin an investiga­ tion of any subject or issue of the age. During the last fifty years, scholars have attempted to widen the constituencies studied and thereby better understand the views of many groups apart from those wielding power. Some recent scholars have indicated that most Englishmen were not caught up in the frenzy of optimistic change and have attempted to assess town-level grievances. The titles of their works themselves tell much of the story: J. S. Morrill, The Revolt of the Provinces (London: Allen & Unwin, 1976); Brian Manning, The English People and the English Revolution (London: Heineman Books, 1976); Roger Manning, Village Revolts: Social Protest and Popular Disturbances in England, 1509- 1640 (Oxford: Clarendon Press, 1988); Keith Lindley, Penland Riots and the English Revolution (London: Heineman Books, 1982); D. Underdown, Revel, Riot and Rebellion (Oxford: Clarendeon Press, 1985); and Buchanan Sharp, In Contempt of All Authority (Berkeley: University of California Press, 1980).
