Boulton and Fothergill silver.
PhDThis thesis is about the silver business of Matthew Boulton and John
Fothergill at their Soho Manufactory near Birmingham. Their
partnership lasted from 1762 until 1782.
A rounded discussion of the topic is attempted. Within the contexts
of industry elsewhere and Soho's other activities, successive chapters
cover the early development, marketing, production, design, and later
decline of the partners' silver.
Silver plate was prestigious and, untypically for Boulton, he
concentrated on sales to the public rather than trade customers. To
attract orders he made modest charges. This was viable where mainly
machinery was used to make plate, even though sales were not high,
since the expense of machinery was substantially covered by the larger
sales of non-silver items. However, where Boulton relied to a
greater degree upon hand methods, he lacked technical means to
compensate for low profit-margins. Moreover, inefficiency and the
firm's lack of capital which led to substantial bankers' interest
charges on payment for bullion, particularly when customers paid late,
caused losses. These problems applied particularly to silver plate
and were mainly responsible for the decision to reduce production
drastically; however, the manufacture of a large range of small items
remained relatively consistent.
The thesis includes appendices. Some contain new information about
annual totals for the following aspects of the business: the volume of
assay silver; each type of article; pieces sold on commission; and
sterling silver supplies. Other appendices provide details about the
partners' silversmiths and extracts from a Soho inventory.
This thesis involves a more detailed use of sources than previous
studies of the topic. Apart from the silver itself (which is
selectively illustrated), the Matthew Boulton Papers and statistics
derived from The Birmingham Assay office provide the main sources.
Manuscripts covering silver production elsewhere provide contextual
material for understanding the partners' silver business
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
