Herefordshire Taxes of the Reign of Henry VIII
This volume is mainly a transcription of the documents produced during the levy of taxation in Herefordshire in the reign of Henry VIII. In fact its scope is somewhat wider than this because it includes prerogative grants, such as loans and benevolences, made to the king, although it fails to notice that they rested on the individual consent of the taxpayers. The transcription is complete, and the original spelling is retained. As a copy of the t…

The Eye of the Beholder: A Critical Examination of Some Cultural Aspects of Scientific Creativity
I. In the Galleria dell'Accademia of Florence, there may be seen, unfinished as he left them, the four Captives by Michelangelo. These massive figures, struggling to free themselves from envelopments of marble illustrate that artist's conception of the sculptor's task: literally to dis-cover the statue hidden in a block of stone by chipping away its concealing shell [1]. This use, by Michelangelo, of the verb 'to discover' comes as a surprise to …

Mechanism and Materialism: British Natural Philosophy in An Age of Reason
Robert Schofield explores the rational elements of British experimental natural philosophy in the 18th century by tracing the influence of two opposing concepts of the nature of matter and its action-mechanism and materialism. Both concepts rested on the Newtonian interpretation of their proponents, although each developed more or less independently. By integrating the developments in all the areas of experimental natural philosophy, describing t…

THE CONTRIBUTIONS OF JOSIAH WEDGEWOOD (1730-1795) to the improvement of ceramic technology are well known, but his experiments on the improvement of glass have remained a secret. Yet, for a period of at least seven years, Wedgwood performed a series of studies, traceable in letters and laboratory commonplace books, culminating in a hitherto unpublished paper recommending processes for removing the cords or striae in optical flint glass. The genes…
