The English Nation at Bantam ”
Focusing on the London East India Company's (EIC) first trading center abroad, the factory in Bantam on Java, this essay explores corporate traumas and divisions of interest in this protoglobal organization that illuminate ongoing volatilities in global capitalism. The factory papers, which include the neglected “Journal of John Saris on the Clove,” reward attention today for the light they shed on fundamental challenges of transnational traffick…

The Hector Journal of Anthony Marlowe
The Journal is not Marlowe’s Manuscript But a Copy Made in London by William Speede. The presumable sequel from Socotra to Surat has not survived. The leaves are bound in a large volume in the British Library’s Manuscript Collection, Cotton Ms. Titus B 8, leaves 252-79. Numbered on each recto and verso, the manuscript’s original pagination is 11-65, the first ten pages lost. The journal begins mid-sentence, presumably 14 July 1607. The yellowed p…
The Anonymous Hector Journal
The Journal, British Library India Office Records, L/MAR/A/4, is separately bound, its eighteen folio leaves inset on larger leaves. The original pages are 301⁄2 centimeters by 19 centimeters. A number are missing, with no entries after 30 August 1607 until mid-18 February 1608. The loss of these months is regrettable, for the surviving passages are exceptionally detailed and reflective. There is a decisive change in the handwriting f17r, line 6,…
The Hector Papers of Francis Bucke
This Chapter Conjoins Two Documents Hitherto Unrecognized as Francis Bucke’s: a 19 June 1608 letter from Socotra, which makes accusations against Matthew Molynuex and names the deceased to date, and a Hector journal fragment from 17 July to 19 August 1608, Socotra to Surat. They are in the same distinctive hand. Marlowe’s 3 June entry, which names the factors assigned to the Hector , isolates the letter’s “myself.” Transcribing it for consistency…
Summary of William Keeling’s Journal on the Red Dragon and the Hector
Drafted Probably in London by an East India Company Scribe from a manuscript that Samuel Purchas described as “very voluminous” ( Pilgrimes , 2:502), this summary, shelf mark L/MAR/A/3, reflects the interests of the Company’s directors. While it often overlaps with Purchas’ lengthier redaction, it contains significant unique material. The journal is individually bound in five unnumbered, yellowing pages, each 19.75 centimeters by 30 centimeters, …

Before Orientalism
Prelude: the cultural logistics of England's Eastern initiative Part I. Staging 'the East' in England: 1. 'The glorious empire of the Turks, the present terrour of the world' 2.

Power and Distant Display
A t Sir Thomas Roe's 1615 landing on the beaches of Surat, the English fleet and royal actor performed an inaugural scene that was less than novel to its native spectators. Although Roe was the first English ambassador to set foot in India, belatedness nagged the embassy. Across the Indian Ocean, trade had thrived for centuries, the last hundred years under Portuguese coercion of the sea-lanes.1 More recently, several London Company merchants had…
Gethsemane in The Tradition of The Passion
The agony in the Garden of Gethsemane (as we usually describe it in English, in typically eclectic fashion, for the agony comes from Luke, the garden from John, and Gethsemane from Mark and Matthew) holds an important place within the Passion narrative. But what is that place? There are strong grounds for holding that the original Passion narrative which lies behind the Marcan and Matthean records began with the arrest of Jesus; the same is proba…
