  • The Early Effects of Gunpowder on Fortress Design: a Lasting Impact

    The Early Effects of Gunpowder on Fortress Design: a Lasting Impact

    The Early Effects of Gunpowder on Fortress Design: A Lasting Impact MATTHEW BAILEY COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS The introduction of gunpowder did not immediately transform the battlefields of Europe. Designers of fortifications only had to respond to the destructive threats of siege warfare, and witnessing the technical failures of early gunpowder weaponry would hardly have convinced a European magnate to bolster his defenses. This essay follows the advancement of gunpowder tactics in late medieval and early Renaissance Europe. In particular, it focuses on Edward III’s employment of primitive ordnance during the Hundred Years’ War, the role of artillery in the Ottoman conquest of Constantinople, and the organizational challenges of effectively implementing gunpowder as late as the end of the fifteenth century. This essay also seeks to illustrate the nature of the development of fortification in response to the emerging threat of gunpowder siege weaponry, including the architectural theories of the early Renaissance Italians, Henry VIII’s English artillery forts of the mid-sixteenth century, and the evolution of the angle bastion. The article concludes with a short discussion of the longevity and lasting relevance of the fortification technologies developed during the late medieval and early Renaissance eras. The castle was an inseparable component of medieval warfare. Since Duke William of Normandy’s 1066 conquest of Anglo-Saxon England, the construction of castles had become the earmark of medieval territorial expansion. These fortifications were not simply stone squares with round towers adorning the corners. Edward I’s massive castle building program in Wales, for example, resulted in fortifications so visually disparate that one might assume they were from different time periods.1 Medieval engineers had built upon castle technology for centuries by 1500, and the introduction of gunpowder weaponry to the battlefields of Europe foreshadowed a revision of the basics of fortress design.

The 283mm (11”) guns for the battery came from the damaged battleship Gneisenau. The guns were then installed in the mountains above the island of Sotra to protect the entrance to Bergen. These modern and accurate guns had a range of 24 miles and were protected by several anti-aircraft batteries supported by air search radar. Extensive ground fortifications protected the battery as well. The battery had a crew of 250 men. The Battery Fjell unit featured in this set represents the battery itself but also a number of other defensive fortifications, garrison units and light weapons.

    Russian Art and Russian Studies at Dartmouth: Case of Ralph Sylvester Bartlett

    Russian Art and Russian Studies at Dartmouth: Case of Ralph Sylvester Bartlett Robert H. Davis, Jr. Ralph Bartlett, on Tuckernuck Island, Nantucket. Courtesy of Peter Narbonne, Eliot, Maine. In archival fles at the Hood Museum at Dartmouth College, there is a mar- velous photo of a jowly gentleman, garbed in a Georgian chokha, clutching a traditional dagger. Although the photo was snapped in Soviet Georgia, in Or- dzhonikidze, in 1933, the face that stared back at me was that of the archetypical northern New Englander. With my own roots deep in the rocky soil of three New England states, it was a type I knew very well.1 This was my frst “encounter” with Ralph Sylvester Bartlett, Esq. (1868–1960), Dartmouth College Class of 1889.2 1 Perhaps more familiar than I originally thought: both my frst paternal ancestor in the New World, John Davis (d. 1675), and Ralph’s forebear Richard Bartlett (d. 1647) settled in Newbury, Massachusetts, in 1635. 2 In the preparation of this article, the following individuals have provided invaluable assistance: Peter Narbonne of Eliot, Maine generously provided scans from Ralph’s huge collection of lantern slides. Eric J. Esau of Dartmouth’s Rauner Special Collections Library located images of Ralph’s reunion classes, copies of his many Class of 1889 reports, and internal Dartmouth memoranda pertaining to Bartlett’s gifts to the College. Joan Waldron of Portsmouth, New Hampshire was instrumental in contacting and interviewing Ralph Robert H.
