Together, they are a representative sampling of the range of manuscript collections at HSP, but scholars are urged to pursue fruitful lines of inquiry to locate and use the scores of additional materials in each area that is surveyed here. There are numerous helpful unprinted guides at HSP that index or describe large collections. Some of these are listed below, especially when they point in numerous directions for research. In addition, the HSP has a printed Guide to the Manuscript Collections of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania (HSP: Philadelphia, 1991), which includes an index of proper names; it is not especially helpful for searching specific topics, item names, of subject areas. In addition, entries in the Guide are frequently too brief to explain the richness of many collections. Finally, although the on-line guide to the manuscript collections is generally a reproduction of the Guide, it is at present being updated, corrected, and expanded. This survey does not contain a separate section on land acquisition, surveying, usage, conveyance, or disputes, but there is much information about these subjects in the individual collections reviewed below.

  • Cc Arbitrary Rule" and the Eighteenth-Century Discourse Ojguinea
    cc Arbitrary rule" and the Eighteenth-Century Discourse ojGuinea MALVERN VAN WYK SMITH INTRODUCING THE English edition of Anders Sparrman's Voyage to the Cape of Good Hope in 1785, the anonymous translator remarks: "Now every authentic and well-written book of voyages and travels is, in fact, a treatise of experimental philosophy" ( 1.27). By the late eighteenth century Africa had become a par• ticularly popular focus and subject for such speculation. The Criti• cal Review wrote in October 1792 : "To explore the internal parts of Africa seems now to be the great subject of the philosopher, the botanist, and the politician" (qtd. in James 19). But the phenom• enon was hardly new, and in this paper I shall attempt to show how a particular late seventeenth- and early eighteenth-century discourse of Africa shaped certain later Enlightenment preoccupa• tions which preceded the abolition of slavery. My argument will be that the obsessive concern in African travelogues of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries with the apparent "cruelty" and "despot• ism" of African forms of rule was not the expression of purblind ethnocentricity that it is now often taken to be, but was rather the imprint of an anxious contemporary European polemic surround• ing the European transition from absolutist to constitutional monarchies. Travel writing lends itself readily to the speculative survey. Travelling into and through the unknown is essentially a herme- neutic process, a reading of the unfamiliar which thus becomes a constitutive process, in which the "eye/1" of traveller/narrator constructs, as much as discovers, the object of investigation.

  • The Astleys of Maidstone
    http://kentarchaeology.org.uk/research/archaeologia-cantiana/ Kent Archaeological Society is a registered charity number 223382 © 2017 Kent Archaeological Society THE PALACE, MAIDSTONE from a pencil drawing by E. H. Hills. 1831 3.rtlrit atO'ffial Cintiana THE ASTLEYS OF MAIDSTONE By ROBERT H. GOODSALL, F.S.A., F.R.I.B.A. (Retd.) IN 1553 when Sir Thomas Wyatt paid the supreme penalty for opposing the Queen's marriage with Philip of Spain his estates in Allington and Boxley, together with the former Archbishop's Palace at Maidstone, passed into the possession of the Crown. Among the Court circle of Elizabeth I was a certain John Astley, scion of ancient Warwickshire and Norfolk stock. His forebear, Sir Thomas, lord of Estleigh (from which the family name may have derived), lost his life at the Battle of Evesham in 1265 and for long there were Astleys at Melton Constable. His father, Thomas, married three times (see pedigree) and by his first wife, Anne Broughton, had one son John who espoused Frances, the daughter of John Cheney of Sitting- bourne, whereby the reputed manor of Ufton in Tunstall passed to Frances. When a son was born to Thomas and his second wife Anne Wood he also was christened John and it was from these two Johns, as will appear, that the Maidstone Astleys descended.' John the second was born in 1507. His mother's sister, Elizabeth, espoused Sir James, the brother of Sir Thomas Boleyn, and so became the aunt of the unfortunate Anne and great-aunt of Elizabeth I. No doubt it was because of this somewhat remote cousinly

  • Introduction
    Introduction The Other Voice [Monsieur de Voysenon] told [the soldiers] that in the past he had known me to be a good Catholic, but that he could not say whether or not I had remained that way. At that mo- ment arrived an honorable woman who asked them what they wanted to do with me; they told her, “By God, she is a Huguenot who ought to be drowned.” Charlotte Arbaleste Duplessis-Mornay, Memoirs The judge was talking about the people who had been ar- rested and the sorts of disguises they had used. All of this terrified me. But my fear was far greater when both the priest and the judge turned to me and said, “Here is a little rascal who could easily be a Huguenot.” I was very upset to see myself addressed that way. However, I responded with as much firmness as I could, “I can assure you, sir, that I am as much a Catholic as I am a boy.” Anne Marguerite Petit Du Noyer, Memoirs The cover of this book depicting Protestantism as a woman attacked on all sides reproduces the engraving that appears on the frontispiece of the first volume of Élie Benoist’s History of the Edict of Nantes.1 This illustration serves well Benoist’s purpose in writing his massive work, which was to protest both the injustice of revoking an “irrevocable” edict and the oppressive measures accompanying it. It also says much about the Huguenot experience in general, and the experience of Huguenot women in particular. When Benoist undertook the writing of his work, the association between Protestantism and women was not new.

MICHELLE LEE 2012 All Rights Reserved. Acknowledgements I would like to begin by thanking Daniel Cottom for directing this dissertation and seeing me through nine years of graduate work. I knew I could always depend on his good advice and practical perspective, no matter the issue. His encouragement, guidance, patience, and sense of humor helped get me to this point, and I am a stronger writer and a better scholar because of him. I am also grateful to my committee members, Francesca Sawaya, Timothy Murphy, Daniela Garofalo, and Judith Lewis. Their kind words, valuable criticism—and, sometimes, their willingness to chat over a much-needed martini—have meant so much to me. This project would not be the same without the indispensable assistance of the many librarians and archivists in Ireland and America who helped me locate research materials. Their extensive knowledge and resourcefulness made sifting through countless of boxes, letters, and manuscripts a smooth and pleasant experience. I would like to thank Mr. Robin Adams and the other librarians in the Manuscripts and Archives Research Library at Trinity College Dublin for helping me with my research on Bram Stoker, and Tara Wenger and Elspeth Healey at the Kenneth Spencer Research Library in Lawrence, Kansas for access to the P.

  • Veiled Propaganda and the Manipulation of Absolutist Authority in Eustache Le Noble’S La Pierre De Touche Politique (1688!1691) by Kathrina Ann Laporta
    “The Truth about Reasoning”: Veiled Propaganda and the Manipulation of Absolutist Authority in Eustache Le Noble’s La Pierre de touche politique (1688!1691) by Kathrina Ann LaPorta I. Introduction: The Political Stakes of Eustache Le Noble’s Pasquinades In a letter dated August 5, 1694, French chief of police Gabriel Nicolas de la Reynie confesses his incapacity to prevent the publication of satirical pamphlets penned by then-imprisoned aristocrat Eustache Le Noble: Ce n’est pas la première fois qu’il a été défendu à cet auteur de mettre au jour des écrits de sa composition, ni la première fois qu’on a enlevé d’entre ses mains, pendant sa prison, les ouvrages de sa façon qu’il y vendait avec beau- coup de scandale. Il a toujours trouvé des protecteurs et des partisans qui ont cru qu’il était utile de laisser à cet homme la liberté d’écrire sur toutes sortes de matières. On ne sau- rait dire combien de manières il en a abusé, et à quel excès il ne s’est porté, ni répondre non plus qu’il se contienne à l’avenir. (Reynie) This is not the first time that this author was forbidden from bringing to light his writings, nor the first time that someone removed from his hands, during his imprison- ment, his works that he was scandalously selling there. He has always found protectors and supporters who found it useful to grant this man the freedom to write on all sorts of subject matters. One cannot say how many ways he has abused this freedom, and to what excess he has taken it, nor whether he will control himself in the future.

  • William Carleton and Famine Dr Melissa Fegan, University Of
    William Carleton and Famine Dr Melissa Fegan, University of Chester Carleton is the pre-eminent chronicler of famine in Ireland – not just what we now term the Famine, the Great Famine of 1845-52, but the perennial state of famine afflicting Ireland in the early nineteenth century.1 Famine conditions are pervasive throughout Traits and Stories of the Irish Peasantry. The Lough Derg Pilgrim is diverted from his planned career in the church due to his outrage at the avarice and indifference of a priest who demands money for confession from an old man and his emaciated son, newly recovered from famine fever. Their pilgrimage has been undertaken in thanksgiving for the recovery of this fragile youth – his brother and sister did not survive.

The number of interments that took place daily in the parish was awful; nothing could be seen but funerals attended by groups of ragged and emaciated creatures, from whose hollow eyes gleamed forth the wolfish fire of famine.‟3 In Jemmy‟s case, it is only the hospitality and generosity of his fellow victims that keeps him alive, including Paddy Dunn, a „naked, starved-looking man‟, who describes himself as „the next thing to my own ghost‟.4
