Camden and Church Monuments
This article examines the epigraphic scholarship of William Camden through close readings first of his guidebook to Westminster Abbey, and then of his other works in which he discusses the histories of church monuments, epitaphs, and inscriptions. Camden emerges here as the pivotal figure between the continental epigraphic tradition, which sprung up in the mid-sixteenth century, and brought together philologically minded antiquaries focused on cl…
The Cambridge History of the British Essay
From ancient influences on the essay as a form of rhetoric to the Irish essay as performance, from British imperial propaganda to African postcolonial resistance, from political pamphlets to the rise of literary professionalism, from gastronomy to ecocriticism, The Cambridge History of the British Essay offers the first authoritative single-volume history of the form's development within the British literary tradition. It restores to the contempo…
Miscellaneous Order
The Early Modern Omnigatherum
This chapter turns to explicitly miscellaneous volumes and, in particular, to manuscripts which sought to encompass ‘everything’ within encyclopaedic collections. Placing these volumes within the larger context of early modern encyclopaedism, the chapter reveals a vibrant, but previously unheralded, encyclopaedic manuscript tradition. While scholarship on the encyclopaedia has tended to focus on print projects, this chapter uncovers a series of v…
The antiquary
Theorizing copiousness
First paragraph: In an oft-cited passage from Book 1 of Of the proficience and Advancement of Learning (1605) Francis Bacon outlines what he calls the ‘three vanities in Studies, whereby learning hath been most traduced': ‘fantastical learning', ‘contentious learning', and ‘delicate learning, vaine Imaginations, vaine Altercations, & vaine affectations'. It is the last of these ‘vanities' that concerns the subject of this special issue, copiousne…
Copiousness, conjecture and collaboration in William Camden's Britannia
While W illiam C amden's B ritannia (1586) clearly is a copious text in both the R enaissance sense of the word and its modern meaning, the work's connection with the humanist rhetorical tradition of copia is far from straightforward. Camden focuses in this monumental antiquarian survey of B ritain on copia rerum rather than copia verborum , thus adopting one half of the humanist concept, but essentially dispensing with the other. This new kind o…
In Defiance of Time
This book explores the emergence of antiquarianism in early modern England, from its first flourishing in the mid-Tudor period through to its 17th-century heyday. At this time, a vibrant antiquarian culture emerged, which reached beyond scholarly and historical circles, and had a profound influence on the literature and thought of the period. Examining the influences on that development of that culture, the book argues that the origins of English…
In Defiance of Time
'In Defiance of Time' contends that the antiquarian project integral to early modern literary and intellectual culture depended on the antiquaries' capacity to restore - in their imagination at least - the fragments of the past. It offers readings of important authors such as Leland, Stow, Spenser Camden, Drayton, and Selden.
A Peripatetic Education
This chapter focuses on a discussion of the peripatetic tradition, examining more the links between antiquarianism and travel narratives. Drawing on both guides to travel (the artes apodemicae or apodemic arts), which frequently contained injunctions to travellers to collect objects and excerpts and instructions in how to interpret and respond to antique remains, and accounts and reports themselves, the chapter demonstrates that curiosity for nat…
Etymology, Names and the Search for Origins
(ProQuest Information and Learning: ... denotes non-USASCII text omitted.)In the Methodus ad facilem historiarum cognitionem, his ars historica first published in 1566, the French jurist Jean Bodin argues that the key to unearthing historical origins, perhaps even the key to all historical inquiry, lies in language. Musing on various possible ways of discovering origins, Bodin concludes that it is 'linguistic traces, in which the proof of origins…
