A History in Portraits

16621820

Hannah Williams, St Johns College,


University of Oxford, UK

Phillip Tovey, Diocese of Oxford


and Ripon College Cuddesdon, UK

Acadmie Royale: A History in Portraits is full of new


insights often brilliant ones into the world of the
French Royal Academy of Painting and Sculpture. Williams
approach to the inner workings of the Academy through
close readings of members portraits and self-portraits is
innovative, refreshing and inspired drawing as it does on
anthropological interpretive models, as well as art-historical
ones. Original, meticulously researched and elegantly
written, this book will be essential reading for specialists in
many fields including history, French studies and cultural
anthropology, and it will be an indispensable source for
historians of eighteenth-century art.
Melissa Hyde, University of Florida, USA
From its establishment in 1648 until its disbanding in 1793
after the French Revolution, the Acadmie Royale de Peinture
et de Sculpture was the centre of the Parisian art world.
Taking the reader behind the scenes of this elite bastion of
French art theory, education, and practice, and drawing on
both art-historical and anthropological frames of analysis,
this engaging study uncovers the fascinating histories
official and unofficial of that artistic community.

Addiction and British


Visual Culture, 17511919
Julia Skelly, Concordia University, Canada
Not only must Julia Skelly be congratulated on this
welcome study, but some praise is also due to the publisher.
It is now comparatively rare to find an academic study with
33 illustrations the production is handsome.
Journal of British Studies
This book investigates and problematizes the long-held
belief that addiction is legible from the body, thus positioning
visual images as unreliable sources in attempts to identify
alcoholics and drug addicts. Examining paintings, graphic
satire, photographs, advertisements and architectural
sites, Skelly explores such issues as ongoing anxieties
about maternal drinking; the punishment and confinement
of addicted individuals; the mobility of female alcoholics
through the streets and spaces of nineteenth-century
London; and soldiers use of addictive substances such
as cocaine and tobacco to cope with traumatic memories
following the First World War.

In this outstanding book Dr Tovey uses hitherto unknown


evidence to uncover the importance of Confirmation in the
eighteenth century. The result is an important and ground
breaking study that will shape scholars views of popular
piety and adherence to the Church.
William Gibson, Oxford Brookes University, UK
Drawing on new developments of the study of visitation
returns and episcopal life and on primary research in
historical records, Anglican Confirmation goes behind
the traditional Tractarian interpretations to uncover the
understanding and confidence of the eighteenth-century
church in the rite of confirmation. The book will be of
interest to eighteenth-century church historians,
theologians and liturgists alike.

Anglo-American Women
Writers and Representations
of Indianness, 16291824
Comparing representations of Indianness by Anglo-American
engravers and later by early Anglo-American women writers,
Cathy Rex shows that iconic images of Native figures
informed both the early republican American identity and the
authorial identity of women writers like Mary Rowlandson
and Lydia Maria Child. By contextualizing these well-known
narratives and images as constitutive of one another, Rex
brings a new, more textually inclusive perspective to the
field of early American studies.

American Environmental
Fiction, 17821847
Matthew Wynn Sivils, Iowa State University, USA
Sivils set out to draw attention to a literature that has
been largely overlooked in the formation of the American
literary canon. In this he succeeds admirably. As a childrens
literature scholar, I am delighted to see works aimed at
children incorporated into such a study Overall, this is
a very welcome study which finds the balance between the
general and the particular. I might also add that it is extremely
pleasurable to read.

Art, Technology and Nature


Renaissance to Postmodernity
Edited by Camilla Skovbjerg Paldam and
Jacob Wamberg, both at Aarhus University, Denmark

Are art and technology coming into a closer relationship


with nature? Through a selection of innovative readings by
international scholars, this book argues that since 1900 we
have experienced a renewed negotiation of the convergent
triangle of art, technology and nature, analyzing its shifting
constellations in post-medieval times. Through this
negotiation, art becomes truly complementary to technology
in understanding natures agencies and may gain an
important role in adjusting technologys present utilitarian
hegemony.

Contributions to the volume trace the creative connections

theatre studies and musicology take as their subjects a
variety of protagonists from theatre, opera, literature and
history in order to make visible the intimately interwoven

Artful Virtue: The Interplay of


the Beautiful and the Good
in the Scottish Enlightenment

This book reveals the history of how the vast landscape


of moral philosophy was applied to the specific territories
of beauty in nature, aesthetics and ethics during the
eighteenth-century Scottish Enlightenment. The author
explores a variety of sources, from academic lectures and
institutional record, to popular texts such as newspapers
and pamphlets, to show how the idea that beauty and art
made individuals and society more virtuous was elevated
and understood in Scottish society.

The Ashgate Encyclopedia of

Edited by Jeffrey Andrew Weinstock,
Central Michigan University, USA
there are ingenious links forged, as when Bernadette Bosky,
writing on bigfoot, plausibly suggests a lineage which stretches
from the figure of Enkidu in the Epic of Gilgamesh and the
wodwos of Sir Gawain and the Green Knight to Jerry Crew,
the Californian logger who, in 1958, connected some thefts and
disturbances at the work site to unnaturally large footprints.

Situating the origins of American environmental fiction in
early Republic natural histories, Indian captivity narratives,
juvenile literature, and the subsequent development of
a uniquely American brand of environmental fiction that
began with James Fenimore Coopers The Pioneers, Matthew
Wynn Sivils argues that these works of early environmental
thought contributed to a growing cultural conception of
the environments importance in shaping the identity of the
fledgling nation decades before the influences of Emersons
Nature and Thoreaus Walden.

College, Canada

BRITISH LITERATURE IN CONTEXT IN THE LONG


EIGHTEENTH CENTURY

In the seventeenth and eighteenth century the terms


atheism and deism involved fine distinctions that have
not always been preserved by later scholars. The original
deployment and usage of these terms were often more
complicated than much of the historical scholarship
suggests. Offering new perspectives on a range of prominent
figures, this collection problematises the older view that
individuals were atheist or deists in a straightforward sense
and instead explores the plurality and flexibility of religious
identities during this period.

Both literature and history are broadly conceived. Literature might include not only canonical novels, poems, and plays
but also essays, life-writing, and belles lettres of all sorts, by both major and minor authors. History might include not only
traditional political and social history but also the history of the book, the history of science, the history of religion, the history
of scholarship, and the history of sexuality, as well as broader questions of historiography and periodization.
The series editors invite proposals for both monographs and collections taking a wide range of approaches. Contributions
may be interdisciplinary but should be grounded in sound historical research. All manuscripts should be written so as to be
accessible to a wide audience while also making lasting contributions to the field.

together an impressive range of original essays. The use
of contemporary network theory and visual mapping is
particularly innovative and thought-provoking.

This collection argues for a new vision of the Bluestockings
as belonging to a chain of interconnected networks that can
be traced from the early eighteenth century to the present.
The contributors explore the activities of the Bluestockings
in a variety of cultural and social realms, trace their
influence through the nineteenth century, and propose
that Bluestocking practice be reinvented in the present.

Highlighting the remarkable women who found ways around
the constraints placed on their intellectual growth, this
collection shows that long eighteenth-century writers usurped
subjects perceived as masculine to contribute to scientific,
political, philosophical and theological debate and progress.
This multifaceted volume goes beyond traditional readings
of womens creativity to add fresh, at times controversial,
insights into the female view of the intellectual world.

The British Fiscal-Military


States, 1660c.1783
Edited by Aaron Graham, University of Oxford, UK
and Patrick Walsh, University College Dublin, Ireland
The concept of the fiscal-military state, popularised by John
Brewer in 1989, has become familiar, even commonplace, to
many historians of eighteenth-century England. Yet even at
the time of its publication the work caused controversy, and
the essays in this volume demonstrate how recent work on
fiscal structures, military and naval contractors, on parallel
developments in Scotland and Ireland, and on the wider
political context, has challenged the fundamentals of this
model in increasingly sophisticated and nuanced ways.

Translation in the Eighteenth Century


Rosalind Powell, Liverpool Hope University, UK
In her study of Christopher Smarts translating practice,
Powell proposes a new approach to understanding the
relationship between Smarts poetics and his practice.
Addressing Smarts versions of Horace, Phaedrus and the
Psalms alongside popular works such as Jubilate Agno,
this study offers broad insights into classical reception and
translation theory; expressions of nationalism; developments
in liturgy and hymnody; and the composition of juvenile texts
in the early modern era.

[]The book is highly recommended to anyone at all
interested in the subject. Margarette Lincoln is an outstanding
stylist and this will be a gratifying read for specialists and
non-specialists alike.
LSE Review of Books
Pirates contributed to the British understanding of
trans-oceanic navigation, patterns of trade and remote
communities. This knowledge advanced imperial expansion,
which helps to explain why contemporary attitudes
towards piracy were ambivalent. This book, an engaging
study of vested interests and conflicting ideologies, shows
how pirates were portrayed in trial reports, novels, legal
documents, sermons, ballads and newspapers. It throws
light on contemporary ideals of leadership and masculinity,
gives insight into the domestic life of pirates, and offers
comparisons with our experience of piracy today.

Re-Orienting Anglo-India

Tracing the literary relationship between British women

that women writers, distinct from their male counterparts,
interrogated Orientalist distortions of India through the
lens of gender. Her study invites us to rethink the Romantic
paradigm of canonical writers as replicators of Orientalists
cultural imperialism in favor of a more complicated stance
that accommodates the differences between male and

Eighteenth-century Geneva offers a fascinating glimpse


into the encounter between the Reformation and the
Enlightenment in the figurative meeting of Calvin and
Voltaire. This research supports a revisionist understanding
of religion and the Enlightenment, moves beyond a simplistic
paradigm of decline and secularization, and highlights how
Genevas French connection ultimately uprooted a society
still largely committed to its Protestant-Reformation origins.

Mid-Century Crisis

Essays Presented to Hilda L. Smith

Jeremy Black, University of Exeter, UK


The years between 1744 and 1757 were a testing time for the
British government as political unrest at home exploded into
armed rebellion, whilst on the continent French armies were
repeatedly victorious. Building upon methods employed in
the preceding two books, this volume charts the significant
political changes of 174457. The book offers a guided
narrative that both uses and builds on the analysis offered
by contemporary commentators, and provides an informed
assessment of the significance of the ideas, terms and
language employed in eighteenth-century Britain to discuss
foreign policy and politics.

Edited by Sigrun Haude, University of Cincinnati,


USA and Melinda S. Zook, Purdue University, USA
This collection, a testament to the work of Hilda L. Smith,
confronts orthodoxy in social and cultural, scientific and
intellectual, and political and legal traditions, to demonstrate
how women of all social classes could challenge the
conventional thinking of their time as well as the ways in which
they have been traditionally portrayed by scholars. Subjects
include womens relationship to guns and gunpowder, the
law, religion, public finances, the new science in early modern
Europe, and women and indentured servitude in the New World.

Extending the chronological and cultural scope of Fortiers


book on equity, which focuses on early modern England,
this interdisciplinary study draws on politics, religion, law,
literature, and philosophy to argue that equity continued to
be a key word throughout the Restoration and eighteenth
century in Britain and America. Fortier asserts that equity is
used and contested in many of the major social and political
events of the period.

Peter Reed

Exhibiting Outside the Academy, Salon and Biennial, 17751999 is unique in its contributions, ambitious in scope and
approach, and succeeds in bringing together an impressive
range of essays on a timely subject by specialists in the field.
This volume fills an important lacuna and provides a welcome
and much needed addition to the history of exhibitions and
collections.
Dorothy Johnson, University of Iowa, USA
In recent years, there has been increasing scholarly interest
in the history of museums, academies and major exhibitions.
There has been, however, little sustained interest in the
histories of alternative exhibitions. The present volume
contextualizes eleven case studies to advance overarching
themes among alternative exhibitions from the late-eighteenth
century to the late-twentieth century. These include the issue
of control in the relationship between artist and curator, and
the relationship of alternative exhibitions to the dominant
modes, display structures and cultural ideology.

Recent research has demonstrated that early modern

centre on the Russian Empire, while bringing together
scholars from various historical traditions of the leading

CRITICAL ESSAYS ON EUROPEAN THEATRE
PERFORMANCE PRACTICE

This volume contains key articles and chapters which


represent both seminal and innovative scholarship on
European theatre performance practice from 1750 to 1900,
with a particular focus on acting and performance, staging
(including set design and lighting), and audiences. The
selection of significant texts on this rich period of theatre
history features detailed analysis as well as more focussed
investigations and captures the dynamic and variegated
nature of European theatre throughout the late-eighteenth
and nineteenth centuries.

Democracy is perhaps the defining characteristic of modern


Western society, but even as late as the nineteenth century
it was often viewed with suspicion by many who saw it as
akin to anarchy and mob rule. Taking as its focus the French
Revolution, this book explores how the experience in France
influenced the emergence of electoral democracy, arguing
contrary to recent revisionist studies that it was indeed the
progenitor of modern representative democracy.

THE HISTORY OF RETAILING AND CONSUMPTION


Series Editor: Gareth Shaw, University of Exeter, UK
It is increasingly recognised that retail distribution systems and changes in consumption play crucial roles in the development
and societal structure of economies.
Since the series was launched, interest in retail history and in the changing patterns of consumption has continued to grow.
Such growth has involved ever wider perspectives on the importance of retailing and consumption in terms of the time periods
examined and across different societies, along with comparative studies. In addition the nature of consumption processes have
been opened up to much more critical examination, all of which has come from a wide range of disciplines. The aim of this
multi-disciplinary series is to provide an international forum for publications that research and explore key themes within the
history of retailing and consumption.

Concepts of Value in European

Retailing and the Language


of Goods, 15501820

Edited by Bert De Munck, University of Antwerp,


Belgium and Dries Lyna, Radboud University
Nijmegen, Netherlands

Nancy Cox, University of Wolverhampton, UK

The dominance of economic repertories of value is a


relatively new phenomenon, and one which directly
correlates to the steady advent of capitalism in early modern
Europe. This volume brings together scholars with expertise
in a variety of related fields, including economic history, the
history of consumption and material culture, art history, and
the history of collecting, to explore changing concepts of
value from the early modern period to the nineteenth century
and present a new view on the advent of modern economic
practices. Jointly, they fundamentally challenge traditional
historical narratives about the rise of our contemporary
market economy and consumer society.

This book explores the meanings assigned to goods


sold retail from 1550 to 1820 and how their labels were
understood. The first half of the book focuses on mercantile
language more broadly; how it was used in trade and how
lexicographers approached new vocabularies. In the second
half, the author turns to the goods themselves, and their
relationships with such terms as luxury, choice and love.
The study of consumables opens up new ways of looking at
the everyday language of the early modern period as well
as the experiences of trade and consumption for merchant
and consumer.

Furniture-Makers and Consumers


in England, 17541851

Narratives of Consumption

Design as Interaction

Three decades of research into retailing in England from


the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries has established a
seemingly clear narrative: fixed shops were widespread from
an early date; modern methods of retailing were common
from at least the early eighteenth century; shopping was a
skilled activity throughout the period; and consumers were
increasingly part of and aware of being part of a polite
and fashionable culture. This book presents a reassessment
of the standard view by challenging the usefulness
of concepts like traditional and modern, examining
consumption and retailing as inextricably linked aspects of a
single process, and by using the idea of narrative to discuss
the roles and perceptions of the various actors in this process
such as retailers, shoppers/consumers, local authorities
and commentators.

Akiko Shimbo, Shibaura Institute of Technology, Japan


Covering the period from the publication of Thomas
Chippendales The Gentleman and Cabinet-Makers
Director (1754) to the Great Exhibition (1851), this book
analyses the relationships between producer-retailers and
consumers of furniture and interior design, and explores
what effect dialogues surrounding these transactions had
on the standardisation of furniture production during this
period. This study examines the role of pattern books and
their readers; the construction of taste and style through
negotiation; and daily interactions through showrooms and
other services, to reveal the complexities of English material
culture in a period of industrialisation.

STUDIES IN HISTORICAL GEOGRAPHY

Inquisitive scientific travellers have long depended on


robustly reliable hardware to turn their remarkable experiences
into convincing reports. This impressive collection makes
sense of how such devices work and offers a major challenge
to images of the solitary voyagers of past sciences. The book
is stocked with revealing stories of these mobile instruments
very wide range of uses, tales of frustration and improvisation
as well as of triumph and success.
Simon Schaffer, University of Cambridge, UK
The collection brings together scholars in the history of
geographical exploration, historians of science, historians
of technology and, importantly, experts with curatorial
responsibilities for, and museological expertise in, major
instrument collections. Ranging in their focus from studies
of astronomical practice to seismography, meteorological
instruments and rockets, from radar to the hand-held
barometer, the chapters of this book examine the ways in
which instruments and questions of technology too often
overlooked hitherto offer insight into the connections
between geography and exploration.

Grtrys Operas and the


French Public
From the Old Regime to the Restoration
R.J. Arnold
ASHGATE INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDIES IN OPERA

The core of Andr-Ernest-Modeste Grtrys appeal was his


mastery of song. His melodies were exported out of the
opera house into every corner of French life, serving as
folkloristic tokens of celebration and solidarity. His death in
1813 was one of the sensations of the age, setting off months
of commemorations and revivals of his work. To understand
this singular event, this interdisciplinary study looks back to
Grtrys earliest encounters with the French public during
the 1760s and 1770s, seeking the roots of his reputation in
the reactions of his listeners. The result is not simply an
exploration of the relationship between a musician and his
audiences, but of developments in musical thought and
discursive culture, and of the formation of public opinion
over a period of intense social and political change.

The Hanoverian Succession
Dynastic Politics and Monarchical Culture
Edited by Andreas Gestrich and Michael Schaich,

Three hundred years after the succession of the first
Hanoverian king, this volume provides an intriguing
perspective of a dynasty, challenging assumptions of the
Hanoverians as petty-minded monarchs presiding over
an inconsequential court. Looking afresh at the Georgian
monarchs and their role, influence and legacy within
Britain, Hanover and beyond, the chapters shine new light
on important topics: from rivalling concepts of monarchical
legitimacy and court culture to the multi-confessional
set-up of the British composite monarchy and the role
of the military, the Anglican Church and the aristocracy
in defining and challenging the political order.

Understanding heteronormativity is imperative for
understanding the culture of the eighteenth century writ
large, as well as the imaginaries of sex and sexuality that it
bequeaths to the present. This collection foregrounds British,
European, and transatlantic heteronormativities to pose vital,
if vexing, questions about the degree of continuity subsisting
between heteronormativities past and present, questions
compounded by the aura of transhistoricity lying at the
heart of heteronormativity as an ideology.

What does Wesley mean by perceptible inspiration? What
does the teaching reveal about the nature and existence
of God in Wesleys thinking? What does it suggest about
the spiritual nature of humankind? In John Wesleys
Pneumatology, it is argued that perceptible inspiration
more than a sidebar of Methodist thought, offers a useful
model for considering the various features of Wesleys views
on the work of the Spirit in relation to human existence,
participatory religious knowledge and moral theology.

STUDIES IN PERFORMANCE AND EARLY MODERN DRAMA

Tropes of monstrosity, madness, venereal disease, incest and


atheism define a group of macabre plays which burst onto
the London stage in the 1670s. Dubbed the horror or the
blood and torture villain tragedies by modern critics, these
deeply unsettling plays fascinated contemporary audiences.
Hermansons study marks the first comprehensive
investigation of the plays, examining them in light of
significant changes to theatrical practice as well as the
endemic civil conflict of the time.

PERFORMANCE IN THE LONG EIGHTEENTH CENTURY:


STUDIES IN THEATRE, MUSIC, DANCE

Cunningham shows that Wesley was not only a man of


one book (the Bible) and fully Christ-imbued (christocentric)
but also perhaps the first postmodern, pentecostal, and
pneumatological theologian. Wesleys robust pneumatology
remains ahead of multiple contemporary discussions and, for
those capable of perceiving the Spirits inspiration, will catalyze
their pneumatological imagination for the next generation.

The Last Battle on English


Soil, Preston 1715
Jonathan Oates, London Borough of Ealing Archives, UK
Most works written about the Jacobites have tended to
look at the 1745 Rebellion, rather than the earlier attempt to
reinstate the Stuart dynasty. Drawing upon a wealth of underutilised sources and giving weight to the community and
individual dimensions of the crisis as well as to the military
ones, this book focuses on events in 1715, when English
and Scottish Jacobites tried to replace George I with James
Stuart. It provides a narrative and analysis of the campaign
that led to the decisive battle at Preston and ended the
immediate prospects of the Jacobite cause.

Mariette and the Science

Kristel Smentek, Massachusetts Institute

STUDIES IN ART HISTORIOGRAPHY

This book is a mine of interesting information that moves


seamlessly from the economics of the 18th century print and
publishing trade to the development of connoisseurship and
individual attribution in the 18th century. All the issues are
intelligently handled and discussed.
Art Newspaper
Celebrated connoisseur, drawings collector, print dealer, book
publisher and authority on the art of antiquity, Pierre-Jean
Mariette (16941774) was a pivotal figure in the eighteenthcentury European art world. Focusing on the trajectory of
Mariettes career, this book examines the material practices
and networks through which connoisseurs forged the idea of
art as an object of empirical and historical analysis. Drawing
on unpublished archival material as well as on histories of
science, publishing and collecting, this book shows how
Mariette and his colleagues interpretations of graphic arts
gave rise to new conceptions of artistic authorship.

Manuela Albertone, University of Turin, Italy

In this excellent study of queer issues in eighteenth-century


Spanish literature, Mehl Allan Penrose applies a wide
array of thinking about the nature of erotic acts and the
sociohistorical considerations relative to them. Focusing on
male writers, Penrose convincingly analyzes representations
of the homoerotic in the writing of major figures in Spanish
literature.
David William Foster, Arizona State University, USA
In his study of Spanish Enlightenment writings, Mehl Allan
Penrose examines three male tropes: the effeminate and
Francophile petimetre; the bujarrn, who engaged in sexual
relations with other men; and the Arcadian shepherd, who
expressed his desire for other males. Penrose analyzes
the construction of queerness in these writings as a sign
of the anxieties revolving around the supposed decline of
masculinity and the evolving nature of sexuality in Spain.

Methodists and their Missionary


Societies, 2-volume set
John Pritchard, Methodist Minister, UK
ASHGATE METHODIST STUDIES SERIES

Methodism played an important part in the spread of


Christianity from its European heartlands to the Americas,
Asia, Africa and the Pacific. From John Wesleys initial
reluctance, via haphazard ventures and over-ambitious
targets, a well-organized and supported Wesleyan Society
developed. Smaller branches of British Methodism undertook
their own foreign missions. This book offers an account of
the overseas mission activity of British and Irish Methodists,
its roots and fruits. Necessarily selective in the personalities
and events it describes, this book offers a comprehensive
overview of a world-changing movement a story packed
with heroism, mistakes, achievements, frustrations,
arguments, personalities, rascals and saints.

This book outlines how, from the mid-eighteenth to


the early-nineteenth century, the political and social
dimension of French economic thought, and particularly
of Physiocracy, spurred American Republicans to a radical
shaping of American agrarian ideology. Such a perspective
allows for a reconsideration of several questions that lie
at the heart of contemporary historiographic debate: the
connection between politics and economics, the meaning
of republicanism, the foundations of representation, the role
of Europe in the Atlantic world, and the interaction between
national histories and global context.

The Nations First Monument


and the Origins of the
American Memorial Tradition
Liberty Enshrined
Sally Webster, Graduate Center CUNY, USA
In recent decades, art historians have increasingly recognized
the crucial roles played by visual, material, and public cultures
in the evolution of national identity. Sally Webster significantly
contributes to this discourse with her story of Americas first
monument, a Revolutionary War memorial authorized by the
Continental Congress in 1776, dedicated to General Richard
Montgomery, and installed in New Yorks St. Pauls Church in
1787. Deftly weaving biography, history, and iconography with
accounts of transatlantic exchange, colonial painting, military
battles, and Enlightenment era allegory, Webster demonstrates
how commemoration has been a core American concern since
the earliest days of the republic.
Erika Doss, University of Notre Dame, USA
The commemorative tradition in early American art is
considered for the first time in Sally Websters study of
public monuments and the construction of an American
patronymic tradition. Until now, no attempt has been made
to create a coherent early history of the carved symbolic
language of American liberty and independence.
Websters study provides a new focus on New York City as
the eighteenth-century city in which the European tradition
of public commemoration was reconstituted as monuments
to libertys heroes.

of Baxandalls art historical writing. Revealing the succession
of intellectual identities that constituted his extraordinary
career, we re-discover the Leavis disciple and Burkhardtian
Renaissance historian of the 1950s; the philological student
of humanist writing on art that emerged in the following
decade; the social historian of the 1970s; and the inferential
critic of the 80s and 90s together with the late return to the
Renaissance in Words for Pictures. Anyone who cares about
the role of history and criticism in writing about art will want

Occult Rhetoric in His Poems and Plays


Reminding readers of John Drydens persistent use of occult
rhetoric, Armistead argues that Drydens otherworldliness
involves more than Christian apologetics, biblical typology,
or intermittent borrowings from the supernatural materials in
classical literature. Otherworldly John Dryden engages with
a wide range of the writers poetry and plays, enhancing our
understanding of Drydens works and tracing the writers
attitudes about Providence and the ability of the poet to
perceive a hidden design in earthly events.

Picturing Marie
Leszczinska (17031768)
Representing Queenship in
Eighteenth-Century France
Jennifer G. Germann, Ithaca College, USA
This insightfully argued and beautifully written book is
a major contribution to our understanding of the gender
dynamics in European monarchy. Germann considers the
institution of French queenship not through its more infamous
and exceptional personages, but by investigating portraits of
one who ideally performed her role.
Michael Yonan, University of Missouri, USA
Portraits of Queen Marie Leszczinska (17031768) were
highly visible in eighteenth-century France. This is the
first study dedicated to analyzing the queens portraits. It
engages feminist theory while setting the queens image in
the context of portraiture in France, courtly factional conflict,
and the history of the French monarchy. While historically
specific, this investigation raises the larger problem of
the power of womens images versus the empowerment
of women, a challenge that continues to plague the
representation of political women today.

The subject of this attractive, splendidly illustrated book

transformed into a little Gothic castle to indulge his

Times Literary Supplement
Drawing together landscape, architecture and literature,
Strawberry Hill, the celebrated eighteenth-century
Gothic villa and garden beside the River Thames, is an
autobiographical site, where we can read the story of its
creator, Horace Walpole. This beautifully illustrated book
reveals the Gothic villa and associated landscape to be
inspired by theories that stimulate The Pleasures of the
Imagination articulated in the series of essays by Joseph
Addison (16721719) published in the Spectator (1712).
Linked to this argument, it proposes that the concepts
behind the designs for Strawberry Hill are not based around
architectural precedent but around eighteenth-century
aesthetics theories, antiquarianism and matters of Taste.

During the medieval and early modern periods the Welsh
diocese of St Davids was one of the largest in the country
and the most remote. As this collection makes clear, this
combination of factors resulted in a religious life which was
less regulated by the institutional forces of Church and State.
Addressing key ideas in the development of popular religious
culture and the stubborn continuity of long-lasting religious
practices into the modern era, the volume shows how the
diocese was also a locus for continuing major religious
controversies, especially in the nineteenth century.

both for domestic politics and for ministerial rivalries. As a
result he demonstrates how party identities in foreign policy

Sir John Soanes Influence


on Architecture from 1791

This brilliant and thoroughly researched book successfully


challenges the widely held belief of architectural historians
that Soane did not have a major or significant influence on
his contemporaries or successors. Our view of Soane will thus
be transformed by Bradburys detailed and fresh account of
19th and 20thcentury architecture.
David Watkin, University of Cambridge, UK

The essays contained in this volume examine the particular


religious experiences of women within a remarkably vibrant
and formative era in British religious history. Scholars from
the disciplines of history, literary studies and theology assess
womens contributions to renewal, change, and reform; and
consider the ways in which women negotiated institutional
and intellectual boundaries. The volume re-focuses scholarly
approaches to the history of gender and the history of
feminism by setting the British writers often characterised as
early feminists in their theological and spiritual traditions.

Through examinations of internationally-renowned


architects, Bradbury demonstrates that Sir John Soanes
influence has been truly international in the pre-modern era,
reaching throughout the British Isles and beyond to North
America and even colonial Australia. Through his inclusion
of select, detailed case studies, Bradbury contends that
Soanes is a continuing, not negated, legacy in architecture.

THE LATE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY COMPOSERS

Staging Blackness and


Performing Whiteness
in Eighteenth-Century
German Drama
Wendy Sutherland, New College of Florida, USA

Series Editor: Simon P. Keefe, University of Sheffield, UK


The five composers represented in this series collectively capture the abundant variety of late eighteenth-century musical life.
C.P.E. Bach and J.C. Bach, once regarded primarily as successors to their father J. S. Bach and as pre-classical forerunners
to Haydn and Mozart, are now central figures in their own right; Gluck continues to be considered a pivotal contributor to the
history of opera; Haydn, the beneficiary of an extraordinary increase in scholarly interest in the last half century or so, now
occupies a place in classical musics elite; and Mozart, never out of the public eye since his death, remains a touchstone of
musical greatness.
Scholarly interest in these five composers has manifested itself in different ways over time, and the volumes in this series
feature a selection of the key contributions to the secondary literature published during the last 40 years. The essays reflect
principal areas of scholarly orientation and academic and historical context; priority has been given to articles published in
English, but a few seminal contributions appear either in a foreign language or in new, previously unpublished translations.
Each volume editor is a leading authority in the field and contributes an extended introduction which situates the contents of
each volume in broad scholarly contexts.
This series enhances appreciation of C.P.E. Bach, J.C Bach, Gluck, Haydn and Mozart, and of the environments in which they
worked and the musical cultures in which they flourished, and stimulates further engagement with the extensive secondary
literature, as well as providing scholars, students and libraries with an indispensable reference source.

J.C. Bach

Haydn

Edited by Paul Corneilson

Edited by David Wyn Jones, Cardiff University, UK

This volume of essays brings together the best of recent


scholarship on J.C. Bach, the youngest son of J.S. Bach
and a friend and mentor of Mozart. The selected articles
represent the principal themes of scholarly research and
writing over the past fifty years, including one article
published as recently as 2015. The introduction provides
a survey of J.C. Bachs career and an overview of recent
literature; the collection includes English translations
of two articles first published in German.

This volume brings together a selection of the most


stimulating and influential writing on Haydn and his music
in the English language. Written by a range of established
and younger scholars the previously published articles
probe a variety of aesthetic, biographical, compositional,
performance and reception issues and provide students
of Haydn with the opportunity to explore the intellectual
diversity of recent scholarship. A specially written
introduction summarizes the significance of each essay and
directs the reader to appropriate complementary material.

Focusing on eighteenth-century cultural production, Wendy


Sutherland argues that German bourgeois dramas by
Friedrich Wilhelm Ziegler, Ernst Lorenz Rathlef, Heinrich von
Kleist, Theodor Krner (and a novella by Heinrich von Kleist
on which Krners play was based) played a significant role
in constructing whiteness. Situated within the framework
of the transatlantic slave trade, her book shows that
the eighteenth-century German stage engaged with the
representation of blackness, even though the German states
were neither colonial powers nor direct participants in the
slave trade.

The second son of J.S. Bach, C.P.E. Bach was an important
composer in his own right, as well as a writer and performer
on keyboard instruments. He has always been the subject
of significant scholarship and publication but interest
has sharply increased over the past two or three decades
from performers as well as music historians. This volume
incorporates important writings not only on the composer
and his chief works but also on theoretical issues and
performance questions. The focus throughout is on
relatively recent scholarship otherwise available only
in hard-to-access sources.

The period from the late eighteenth century until about 1840
coincided with major changes in educational theories and
practices, especially for girls, and this book uses needlework
maps and globes to chart a broader discussion of womens
geographic education. In this light, map samplers and
embroidered globes represent a transition in womens
education from accomplishments in the eighteenth century
to challenging geographic education and conventional map
drawing in schools and academies of the second half of the
nineteenth century.

Sudden Death:
Medicine and Religion in
Eighteenth-Century Rome
Maria Pia Donato, C.N.R.S. Institut dHistoire Moderne

Cagliari, Italy
THE HISTORY OF MEDICINE IN CONTEXT

Praise for the Italian edition:


(...) beautifully written and impeccably structured, with
clearly stated research questions and a helpful bibliography
of key works, this in-depth study is an intellectual delight.
Alexandra Bamji, Bulletin of the History of Medicine
In 17051706, an epidemic of mysterious deaths terrorized
Rome. Pope Clement XIs physician, Giovanni Maria Lancisi,
was ordered to perform a series of dissections to discover
the cause of the epidemic, which hindered confession, thus
threatening the victims salvation. The book that Lancisi
subsequently published, De subitaneis mortibus (On Sudden
Deaths, 1707), is one of the earliest modern scientific
investigations of death. Sudden Death explores how a new
scientific interpretation of death first came into being, and
led the way to a belief in the conquest of death by medicine
which remains to this day.

Although the idea of excess has often been used to degrade,


many of the essays in this collection demonstrate how it
has also been used as a strategy for self-fashioning and
empowerment, particularly by women and queer subjects.
This volume examines a range of material including
ceramics, paintings, caricatures, interior design and
theatrical performances in various global contexts.
Each case study sheds new light on how excess has been
perceived and constructed, revealing how beliefs about
excess have changed over time.

that his collection is the foundation of Scotlands oldest

The Writings of James Barry


and the Genre of History
Painting, 17751809
Liam Lenihan, University College Cork, Ireland
Examining the literary career of the eighteenth-century
Irish painter James Barry through an interdisciplinary
methodology, this is the first full-length study of the artists
writings. Lenihan assesses the artists own aesthetic
philosophy about painting and printmaking, and reveals
the extent to which Barry wrestles with the significant
stylistic transformations of the pre-eminent artistic genre
of his age: history painting. Lenihans book delves into the
connections between Barrys writings and art, and the issues
that dominated the public sphere in London during the
American and French Revolutions.

Educating by the Book


Rebecca Davies, Loughborough University, UK
Arguing that the location of idealised maternity for women
is in the act of writing educational discourse rather than in
the physical performance of the maternal role, Davies plots
the formation of a written paradigm of maternal education
that associates maternity with educational authority. She
examines a wide range of genres by authors that include
Samuel Richardson, Mary Wollstonecraft, Maria Edgeworth
and Jane Austen.

Playfulness and Freedom in the Artwork
of Hakuin Ekaku and Sengai Gibon
Galit Aviman, Ben-Gurion University of the Negev,

This book explores the playfulness reflected in the artwork
of two prominent Japanese Zen monk-painters: Hakuin
Ekaku (16851768) and Sengai Gibon (17501837). Aviman
elaborates on the nature of this particular artistic expression
and identifies its sources, focusing on the lives of the monkpainters and their artwork. The author combines a holistic
analysis of the paintings, i.e. as interrelated combination of
text and image, with a contextualization of the works within
their specific environments.
