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. Evidence of book ownership in this period is manifested in a variety of ways, which need to be brought together if we are to develop that fuller picture. -

Let me pause Richard C. Tilghman, Jr., Chair to thank Richard Tilghman, who served as Henry H. Stansbury, Vice Chair chairman for the past two years. During that James P. Harris, Treasurer time, we’ve seen enthusiasm for CBMM Richard J. Bodorff,Secretary Diane J. Staley, Officer-At-Large grow tremendously with Kristen Greenaway at the helm. Richard’s lasting contribution is the Schuyler Benson skillful mentoring of our new president as she Paul Berry assumed her role at a pivotal time in CBMM’s Harry W. Burton William B.

2017–18 213 N. Talbot St. St. Michaels, MD 21663 410-745-2916 cbmm.org A Message from the Board by Diane J. Staley, 2018–2019 Chair It was an exciting and productive year for the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum. There were significant initiatives in the areas of exhibitions, education, and the Shipyard that supported and deepened the impact of CBMM’s mission. Some highlights: • Our new exhibition, Exploring the Chesapeake: Mapping the Bay takes a comprehensive BOARD OF look at the different ways the Chesapeake Bay has been portrayed over time through mapping GOVERNORS and charting. The exploration begins with European exploration in the 16th century and 2017-2018 continues with the growth of settlement in the region in the 17th and 18th centuries. More James P. Harris, Chair than 40 maps and charts from CBMM’s permanent collections and several private collections Diane J. Staley, Vice Chair are included. Guests can also walk the length and breadth of the Bay on a giant floor map, or Richard W. Snowdon, Treasurer monitor the movement of commercial shipping through modern mapping technologies. Richard J. Bodorff, Secretary • Children’s educational programs continue to be an important focus. CBMM is a major Schuyler Benson Simon F. Cooper destination for K–12 field trips during which students learn about wooden boatbuilding, the William S. Dudley economics of the crabbing industry, and the ecology and heritage of the Chesapeake Bay. Len N. Foxwell Our Education Department has grown the number of student visits 44% to nearly 6,000 during Howard S. Freedlander the past school year. -

William Thomas's Notebook: a Window on Seventeenth-Century
William Thomas’s Notebook: A Window on Seventeenth-Century Religion and Politics Greg Waite William Thomas entered Brasenose College, Oxford, as an undergraduate in 1609 and, while there, possessed at least one small notebook in which he recorded sermons from hearing. After ordination in 1617, and as a committed Puritan, Thomas was twice ejected from his living at Ubley in Somerset, first in 1634, then in 1662 after the Restoration. In the period of the Civil War, he used the notebook to record excerpts from printed religious and political tracts. Now in private hands in New Zealand, this notebook adds to our understanding of the culture of sermon-notation, and to the life of Thomas himself, known otherwise through his published works and Somerset ecclesiastical records. The number of medieval manuscripts in private hands in New Zealand is small, and most are known and catalogued. It is more difficult to determine the number of early modern manuscripts and documents, as such items are often directly connected with their present owners’ forebears in some way, and therefore more likely to remain in family possession, often without notice to the wider scholarly community. Some do surface, however, and I have come across a variety of items that now reside in New Zealand for rather serendipitous reasons. I have examined, for example, a cache of seventeenth- century legal documents rescued from a rubbish skip in London in the 1970s, which passed by inheritance to a New Zealand family member. Another object narrowly to have escaped destruction, the subject of this article, is a notebook miscellany brought to me for decipherment and information, which remains in private hands. -

Methuen & Co., 18, Bury Street, London, W.C. 1891. [All rights reserved.] Richard Clay & Sons, Limited, London & Bungay. PREFACE. The history of any one of the older Colleges of Oxford extends over a period of time and embraces a variety of interests more than sufficient for a volume.The constitutional changes which it has experienced in the six, or four, or two centuries of its existence have been neither few nor slight. The Society living within its walls has reflected from age to age the social, religious, and intellectual conditions of the nation at large. Its many passing generations of teachers and students have left behind them a wealth of traditions honourable or the reverse.Yet it seems not impossible to combine in one volume a series of College histories. -
