It has been prepared in accordance with the guidelines outlined by the Department of English and Related Literature and the University of York, and does not exceed the regulation length. vi ABSTRACT The dissertation examines the literature and culture of walking, rambling, and promenading in eighteenth-century London, exploring the ways in which walking informed the presentation of London over the course of the century, and how, as a social and cultural activity, it allowed writers to address contemporary issues such as luxury, class, politeness, gender, social mobility, and personal safety. Towards the end of the seventeenth century, walking had become an established means of organizing narratives of the metropolis and of composing and presenting one's experiences in London. At the same time, new kinds of social and cultural spaces — the promenade and the shopping street — gave rise to new forms of walking. Representations of London over the course of the century described a London that was interesting, spectacular, dangerous, and exciting — a city that needed to be presented, revealed, discussed, explained, and questioned. Rather than focus on a single genre or paradigm, the dissertation examines the variety of uses of walking in a range of presentations of London, including histories, topographies, guidebooks, ramble and spy narratives, periodicals, poems, travelogues, prints, and cultural artefacts. vi i INTRODUCTION WALKING IN EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY LONDON A lady's fan, dated from the 1770s, opens to display a map of London [fig.!]. The listings at each side of the map offer a number of choices of places to visit, and mark the locations of churches, squares, places of interest, parks, and buildings of significance. The fan, presumably, is an early example of the same practice that now places maps of the London Underground on tea towels, socks, umbrellas, and ties. To own one of these objects announces that you have been to London (whether you have or not), and that you have some acquaintance, at least, with the area the map represents. You might point out the place where you stayed, the places you visited; you may trace on the map the routes you took. There are some important differences, however, between the eighteenth-century fan and the souvenirs of the present. The map of London, displayed on a fashion accessory like a fan, suggests the possibility of women moving unaccompanied through London, at a time when their freedom to do so was still insecurely established. Secondly, the map on the fan is a much more discreet aide-memoire then any comparable object sold today. To consult an A-Z in the street is to announce to everyone that you are a stranger to London, even new to the city; to glance briefly at a fan whose design is invisible to others makes no such troublesome confession. A number of issues raised by this fan — the marketing of the idea of London; the way women should and should not move through the city; how to 1 Figure 1. Ladies fan displaying a map of London. London, c.1770s. Reproduced by kind permission of York Castle Museum. 2 present yourself on the city streets; and the association between London and polite and fashionable life — will return frequently in this dissertation. It explores the literature and culture of walking, rambling, and promenading in eighteenth-century London, examining the ways in which walking informed the presentation of London over the course of the century, and how, as a social and cultural activity, it allowed writers to address contemporary issues. Towards the end of the seventeenth century, walking had become an established means to present narratives of the metropolis and to compose and present one's experiences in London. The movements through the metropolis offered by narratives structured around walking allowed for the exploration of taverns, pleasure gardens, public promenades, shops, gaming houses, brothels, theatres, and exhibitions. At the same time, new kinds of social and cultural spaces — the promenade and the shopping street — gave rise to new forms of walking. Through their representations of London, authors and artists were able to respond to the swiftly growing metropolis, raising issues relating to morality, luxury, class, politeness, gender, social mobility, and personal safety. Representations of London over the course of the century described a London that was interesting, spectacular, dangerous, and exciting — a city which needed to be presented, revealed, discussed, explained, and questioned. That London should hold such sway over the eighteenth-century imagination is not surprising. Far larger than any other European city in the period, it grew considerably both in size and in population over the course of the century. Although population figures before the first census of 1801 are not entirely reliable (they do not include Jews, Roman Catholics, Protestant Dissenters, the foreign, and the children of the poor), it is generally understood 3 London's size increased by more than 50% from around 570,000 in 1700 to 900,000 in 1801. 1 Although still legally as well as imaginatively divided along complex boundaries, including Middlesex, Westminster, the City, and the Borough of Southwark, plus various liberties and precincts, which together seemed to form 'an Aggregate of various Nations,' the whole of the developed area was, by the early eighteenth century, considered to be `London.'2 Writing in the 1720s, Daniel Defoe remarks that 'when I speak of London, now in the modern acceptation, you expect I shall take in all that vast mass of buildings, reaching from Black-Wall in the east, to Tot-hill Fields in the west' as well as Southwark, the whole totaling over thirty-six miles in circumference. 3 As the home of court, government, and culture, and with its theatres, promenades, coffee-houses, pleasure gardens, assemblies, and exhibitions (as well as more illicit forms of entertainment), London often set the standard in provincial towns for social and cultural activities. It was home to fashionable society during the season, and as roads and transportation improved, became accessible to more and more visitors. Finally, as the center of the nation's printing and publishing, it featured in most newspapers and novels that were 'read across the country.

Wrigley, 'A Simple Model of London's Importance in Changing English Society and Economy 1650-1750'. Past and Present 37 (1967), p. 44. The numbers are not undisputed: Mary Dorothy George calculated the population in 1750 as 674,350 in London Life in the Eighteenth Century (1925), (Harmondsworth: Penguin, 1976). 2 Joseph Addison and Richard Steele, The Spectator ed.

Dent and Sons, 1962), I: 314. 4 From some perspectives, the development of walking in London as a means to explore and experience the metropolis and as a pastime may seem surprising. Early eighteenth-century representations of London often focused on its filth, stenches, and noises.

Elizabeth Hunter Sleep and civility 8 8 “That venerable and princely custom of long-lying abed” Sleep and civility in seventeenth- and eighteenth-century urban society1 Elizabeth Hunter “Early to bed and early to rise, and you never meet any prominent people.” This ironic twist on a familiar English proverb was attributed to the American writer George Ade in 1928 (Miner and Rawson, 2006, p. 307); but it would have been appreciated in eighteenth-century London where the upper classes and their imitators gained notoriety for excess and late-night revels. A certain degree of night-time socialising was necessary for the purposes of business and social advancement, and it also formed part of an Enlightenment ideal of a cultured and connected society. The excessive pursuit of leisure during the hours of darkness, however, and the period of sleeping during morning hours that inevitably followed, were seen by some as ruinous to the health of the individual and nation. This was not an entirely new concern. As one of the six non-naturals, attention to hours of sleeping and waking was well established in European culture as a way of maintaining health and living to an old age.

  • London's Soap Industry and the Development of Global Ghost Acres
    London’s Soap Industry and the Development of Global Ghost Acres in the Nineteenth Century John Knight won a prize medal at the Great Exhibition in 1851 for his soaps, which included an ‘excellent Primrose or Pale-yellow-soap, made with tallow, American rosin, and soda’.1 In the decades that followed the prize, John Knight’s Royal Primrose Soap emerged as one of the United Kingdom’s leading laundry soap brands. In 1880, the firm moved down the Thames from Wapping in East London to a significantly larger factory in West Ham’s Silvertown district.2 The new soap works was capable of producing between two hundred and three hundred tons of soap per week, along with a considerable number of candles, and extracting oil from four hundred tons of cotton seeds.3 To put this quantity of soap into context, the factory could manufacture more soap in a year than the whole of London produced in 1832.4 The prize and relocation together represented the industrial and commercial triumph of this nineteenth-century family business. A complimentary article from 1888, argued the firm’s success rested on John Knights’ commitment ‘to make nothing but the very best articles, to sell them at the very lowest possible prices, and on no account to trade beyond his means’.5 The publication further explained that before the 1830s, soap ‘was dark in colour, and the 1 Charles Wentworth Dilke, Exhibition of the Works of Industry of All Nations, 1851: Catalogue of a Collection of Works On, Or Having Reference To, the Exhibition of 1851, 1852, 614.

  • London and Middlesex in the 1660S Introduction: the Early Modern
    London and Middlesex in the 1660s Introduction: The early modern metropolis first comes into sharp visual focus in the middle of the seventeenth century, for a number of reasons. Most obviously this is the period when Wenceslas Hollar was depicting the capital and its inhabitants, with views of Covent Garden, the Royal Exchange, London women, his great panoramic view from Milbank to Greenwich, and his vignettes of palaces and country-houses in the environs. His oblique birds-eye map- view of Drury Lane and Covent Garden around 1660 offers an extraordinary level of detail of the streetscape and architectural texture of the area, from great mansions to modest cottages, while the map of the burnt city he issued shortly after the Fire of 1666 preserves a record of the medieval street-plan, dotted with churches and public buildings, as well as giving a glimpse of the unburned areas.1 Although the Fire destroyed most of the historic core of London, the need to rebuild the burnt city generated numerous surveys, plans, and written accounts of individual properties, and stimulated the production of a new and large-scale map of the city in 1676.2 Late-seventeenth-century maps of London included more of the spreading suburbs, east and west, while outer Middlesex was covered in rather less detail by county maps such as that of 1667, published by Richard Blome [Fig. 5]. In addition to the visual representations of mid-seventeenth-century London, a wider range of documentary sources for the city and its people becomes available to the historian.

Very rare Dutch edition: no copy in Australia or NZ First Dutch edition of Shillibeer’s swashbuckling tale of sailing in the Pacific, including his widely-read account of meeting the last of the Bounty survivors on Pitcairn Island.

Shillibeer’s book was originally published in Taunton (Somerset) in 1817 and again in London later the same year. This Dutch edition is very scarce indeed, and I can find records relating to only two confirmed sales: the first a rather worn copy at Sotheby’s in 1964, at the sale of the library of Senor Alberto Dodero of Buenos Aires (US$22.40); and a second copy, noted as in fair condition, at the small Dutch auction house Bubb-Kupyer in 2004 (EUR 420). $1250 References: Borba de Moraes, p. 797; Ferguson, 767; Sabin, 80845.

    PAPER VI UNIT I Non-fictional Prose—General Introduction, Joseph Addison’s The Spectator Papers: The Uses of the Spectator, The Spectator’s Account of Himself, Of the Spectator 1.1. Introduction: Eighteenth Century English Prose The eighteenth century was a great period for English prose, though not for English poetry. Matthew Arnold called it an "age of prose and reason," implying thereby that no good poetry was written in this century, and that, prose dominated the literary realm. Much of the poetry of the age is prosaic, if not altogether prose-rhymed prose. Verse was used by many poets of the age for purposes which could be realized, or realized better, through prose. Our view is that the eighteenth century was not altogether barren of real poetry. Even then, it is better known for the galaxy of brilliant prose writers that it threw up. In this century there was a remarkable proliferation of practical interests which could best be expressed in a new kind of prose-pliant and of a work a day kind capable of rising to every occasion. This prose was simple and modern, having nothing of the baroque or Ciceronian colour of the prose of the seventeenth-century writers like Milton and Sir Thomas Browne. Practicality and reason ruled supreme in prose and determined its style. It is really strange that in this period the language of prose was becoming simpler and more easily comprehensible, but, on the other hand, the language of poetry was being conventionalized into that artificial "poetic diction" which at the end of the century was so severely condemned by Wordsworth as "gaudy and inane phraseology." 1.2.

Daniel Defoe’s Moral and Political Thought in Its Religious Context Chienyuen Chen PhD Thesis The University of Edinburgh 2019 2 Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive picture of the religious ideas of the famous English journalist and novelist Daniel Defoe. Today, Defoe is best remembered as a novelist, but most of his works are non-fictional works including a sizable number of didactic or supernatural writings. Even though there is a rising scholarly interest in Defoe’s thoughts on subjects such as politics or Puritanism, there is hardly a single monograph devoted to Defoe’s religious ideas. This thesis aims to fill the gap by examining Defoe’s works throughout his career. It demonstrates that Defoe’s Presbyterian upbringing was influential in his emphasis on the ideas of good work, practical godliness, and the development of good habits.
