A sculptural gift and the history of the Earth
The gift of around 180 of Sir Francis Chantrey’s full-size plaster models to the Ashmolean Museum after the sculptor’s death in 1841 was partially engineered by William Buckland, former Professor of Geology at the University of Oxford. It was the final act of a long friendship between Chantrey and Buckland, who were bound by mutual geological interests. Chantrey’s involvement in the geological milieu of the early nineteenth century is a lesser-kn…
Classical Sculpture and the Culture of Collecting in Britain since 1760
Coltman's text, part of a series on Classical Presences, concerns the culture surrounding the collecting of ancient statuary in eighteenth-century Britain.

Rapin, Hume and the identity of the historian in eighteenth century England
Paul de Rapin-Thoyras's History of England (1725–1731) has hitherto occupied a marginal position in most accounts of eighteenth-century historiography, despite its considerable readership and influence. This paper charts the publication history of the work, its politics and style, and the methods through which Rapin's British translators and booksellers successfully proposed the work as the model for new historical enquiry, and its author as the …
