Castle Howard A Catalogue of the Right Honourable Charles Earle of Carlisle’s Books In His Lordships Library at Castle Howard Taken in February 1715/1716 transcribed and edited by David Griffiths Yorkshire Country Houses Partnership Libraries Project University of York Library & Archives October 2004 This catalogue has been compiled from the information transcribed from a manuscript in Castle Howard archives, shelfmark H2/3/1, which appears in the two columns below marked ‘Shelfmark’ and ‘MS Entry’ respectively. The manuscript has an introductory note that reads as follows: An explanation of the Letters and Directions how to find any book in this Catalogue as followeth C Signifies the Classis which is mark’d att top with Gold Letters A B C &c: Reckoning them from the Left Hand to the right. D Signifies the Division, Partition or shelf directly down under the Gold Letters on the Top N Signifies the Number of the Books in Each shelf according to the figure mark’d on the back In this transcription of the catalogue, the ‘Classis’ is the first of the two letters in the shelfmark following the 1716 date; the ‘Division, Partition or shelf’ is the second; and the ‘Number’ is the Arabic numeral, preceded by a ‘0’ in many instances to allow for computer sorting. Of the letters comprising the ‘Classis’, the letters D, F, and G were not used; and neither was the letter J which at this time would have been considered another form of the letter I. The arrangement on the shelves would seem to have been a mixture of the systematic and the pragmatic, in that there are arrangements by subject, e.g., BE (history, topography, and travel), EC (theology), and EE (history); and by size, e.g., BF, EF, KE, LE, ME would probably have been bottom shelves containing, as they did, folio size volumes. It is not known where in the house the books were located nor the furnishings in which they were kept. All but eight of the titles in the manuscript list have been identified, although I realise that some of the identifications which I have made may possibly be in error. Books which have a comment ‘Pressmark of the third Earl of Carlisle’ or a mark of ownership of Sir William Fenwicke are currently housed in the library at Castle Howard.

  • 'The Political Career of Edward Sackville, Fourth Earl of Dorset (1590-1652)'
    'THE POLITICAL CAREER OF EDWARD SACKVILLE, FOURTH EARL OF DORSET (1590-1652)' BY DAVID LAWRENCE SMITH SELWYN COLLEGE A Dissertation submitted in the Faculty of History for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Michae1mas Term 1989 ABSTRACT Title: 'The Poli tical Career of Edward Sackvi1le, fourth Earl of Dorset (1590-1652)' Author: David Lawrence Smith, Selwyn College This dissertation seeks to illuminate early Stuart political history by a study of one important public figure. The fourth Earl of Dorset was a member of Charles I's Privy Council, Lord Chamberlain to Queen Henrietta Maria, and Lord Lieutenant of Sussex and Middlesex. He attended all the Parliaments of the 1620's, and sat in the Short and Long Parliaments. He was active in Court and Council throughout the 1630's, and sided with the King in the Civil War. He consistently advocated harmony and reconciliation in a period of growing polarisation. This study investigates Dorset's perception of early seventeenth century political developments, his response to them, and the reasons why he and other moderates failed to prevent civil war. It thus contributes to current debates both on the early modern peerage, and on the origins and nature of the English Civil War. The first chapter looks at Dorset's life and career up to the age of thirty. In Chapter Two a discussion of his rapid rise to political prominence during the 1620's explores the reasons for his success and the nature of his motivation. Chapter Three investigates Dorset's activities as a Privy Councillor and as the Queen's Lord Chamberlain in the 1630's.

  • Aristocratic Whig Politics in Early-Victorian Yorkshire: Lord Morpeth and His World
    ARISTOCRATIC WHIG POLITICS IN EARLY-VICTORIAN YORKSHIRE: LORD MORPETH AND HIS WORLD David Christopher Gent Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of York Department of History 2010 ABSTRACT This thesis explores the provincial life of George W. F. Howard (1802-64), 7th Earl of Carlisle, better known as the early-Victorian Whig aristocrat and politician Lord Morpeth. It challenges accounts which have presented Whiggery as metropolitan in ethos, by demonstrating that Morpeth strongly engaged with the county of Yorkshire as a politician, philanthropist and landlord. It provides the first dedicated account of how Whiggery operated, and was perceived, in a provincial setting. An introduction summarises the current historiography on the Whigs, and establishes the rationale behind the study. Chapter One details the pivotal influence of Morpeth’s Christian faith on his thought. It suggests that his religious values shaped both his non- political and political actions, ensuring a correlation between them. Chapters Two and Four are concerned with Morpeth’s career as M.P. for Yorkshire (1830-32) and the West Riding (1832-41, 1846-48). They suggest that Morpeth played a key role in building an alliance between the region’s liberals and Whiggery, based around the idea that the Whigs would offer political, economic and ecclesiastical reforms. However, they show how this alliance gradually splintered, partly owing to differences between the Whigs and some of the region’s nonconformist liberals over issues of Church and State and the Whigs’ social reform policies. Chapter Three details Morpeth’s activities as a philanthropist in the county. It suggests that this maintained his links to his supporters, shaped his views on social questions, and enhanced his political reputation.

  • For Those Royalists Disappointed by Charles II's Failure to Reward Them
    1 The earls of Derby and the opposition to their estate bills in parliament, 1660-92: some new manuscript sources By Charles Littleton, History of Parliament Trust Abstract: The bills introduced in 1660-62 by Charles Stanley, 8th earl of Derby, to reclaim his property conveyed by legal procedures to other proprietors during the Interregnum are well-known to students of the Restoration, as their ultimate defeat is seen as evidence of the royal government's wish to enforce 'indemnity and oblivion' after the civil war. The leading members of the House of Lords opposed to the bill of 1661-2 can be gauged by the protest against its passage on 6 February 1662, which has been readily available to students to consult since the 18th-century publication of the Lords Journals. A number of manuscript lists of the protesters against the bill's passage reveal that the opposition to the bill was even more extensive and politically varied than the protest in the Journal suggests, which raises questions of why the printed protest is so incomplete. A voting forecast drawn up by William Stanley, 9th earl of Derby, in 1691 further reminds us of the often neglected point that the Stanleys continued to submit bills for the resumption of their hereditary lands well after the disappointment of 1662. Derby's manuscript calculations, though ultimately highly inaccurate, reveal much about how this particular peer envisaged the forces ranged for and against the claims of an old civil war royalist family, a good forty years after the loss of their land.

SfC. SfC. Immortal Chief who firmly stood, Like Atlas, in a sea of blood, Dauntless and unabash’d !

" WATERLOO.” —“ My heart is nearly broken for the loss of my friends and poor “ soldiers; and I shall not be satisfied if this victory does not ter- “ minate the conflict.”— VIDE LETTER FROM THE DUKE OF WELLINGTON. PRINTED FOR THE PROPRIETOR, BY J. REGGIE, OLD ASSEMBLY CLOSE, 1817. V To be had of the Author only, Clje ntnti) Otttou SALAMANCA: A HEROIC POEM. By HAMILTON ROCHE, Esq. (Late a Captain of Light Infantry in the British Service.) “ ’Twas here that Wellesley’s heroic soul was prov’d, “ Meeting the tyrant’s various hosts unmov’d : “ Through all his ranks, supporting them afar, “ He calmly view’d the scenes of bleeding war; u His holy eye the slaughter’d field survey’d, “ And sent to dying columns timely aid; “ Rallied repuls’d battalions to engage, “ And led where’er the soul of war should rage.” —“ We shall close our critique upon this elegant poem, which “ the classic author must consider very favourable, as we deem “ ‘ Salamanca’ possessing all the powers of Poetry, descriptive, “ narrative, and epic; in competition to the ‘ Blenheim ’ of our “ illustrious Addison.” Vide the Reviews, and “ Town Talk,'> for December 1812.
