    PhDThe thesis deals with the party journalism of the years 1710-1712 as it concerned Marlborough, relating it to its political context and discussing the techniques of controversy employed. The introduction outlines Marlborough's popular status during the earlier years of Anne's reign, the uneasiness aroused by his family's monopoly of royal favour, the growing discontent with the war, despite his repeated victories, and Marlborough's personal reactions to such criticism. The first three chapters concern the issues arising from the ministerial changes and General Election of 1710, measures which many pamphleteers justified by censuring Marlborough's abuse of royal favour and conduct as general and plenipotentiary. The important contribution of Marlborough's principal apologist, Francis Hare, to this latter controversy is discussed in detail. Chapter III demonstrates that journalistic. pressure was also a determining factor in Marlborough's retention of his command under the new ministry. Chapters IV to'VI trace the efforts of Marlborough's Journalistic supporters during his last campaign to make his continuing military success the spearhead of their opposition to the ministry's secret peace negotiations, a procedure more favoured by the Duchess of Marlborough than by the Duke, and culminating at the end of 1711 in major ministerial press attacks on the latter and finally in his 3. dismissal on charges of financial malpractice. The last two chapters describe the controversies of the year following Marlborough's dismissal, including the journalists' unscrupulous exploitation of the peculation charges, and the numerous publications purporting to expose plots of Marlborough's devising against the Queen and ministry. The difficulties facing his defenders and the effect of this massive and damaging press campaign on the Duke himself are also examined. An epilogue deals briefly with journalistic reactions to Marlborough's period of self-exile on the Continent from December 1712 until August 1714

    Zur "Römischen Octavia" sind in der Herzog August Bibliothek (23:) und im Staatsarchiv (SA) Wolfenbüttel umfangreiche Vorarbeiten, Manuskripte und Diktatniederschriften erhalten, was für einen Roman des 17. und frühen 18. Jahrhunderts eine absolute Seltenheit darstellt. Über die gedruckten Bände hinaus existieren auch noch große Teile der Diktatniederschriften für einen abschließenden achten Band des Romans. Am verlässlichsten informiert hierüber die Einleitung zur Historisch-kritischen Ausgabe in HKA I, pp. XIX-LIX. Zur umfangreichen erhaltenen Korrespondenz Anton Ulrichs vgl. Mazingue (1978), pp. 887-900. Der Roman erschien in zwei Fassungen - Fassung A, verlegt in Nürnberg, und Fassung B, verlegt in Braunschweig und Wien, weichen im Text voneinander ab. A war zuerst auf vier Bände konzipiert, ist dann aber auf sechs Bände erweitert worden. Diese sechs Bände wurden 1711 zu einer Werkausgabe gruppiert. Fassung B war zuerst ebenfalls auf sechs, später auf acht Bände konzipiert, von ihr erschienen sechs Bände in Braunschweig zwischen 1712 und 1714 und ein siebter in Wien 1762. Von den Ausgaben A.3.a, A.1.b, A.2.b sind Druckvarianten überliefert, die jeweils nach den Nachdrucken der ersten drei Bände (1685-1702) und vor 1711 entstanden sind. Die ersten drei Bände der Ausgabe von 1711 bieten zum weit überwiegenden Teil Material dieser Druckvarianten

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
