Richardson, Barbauld, and the construction of an early modern fan club
No full textMPhilMuch has been written about the life and long works of the eighteenth century epistolary novelist, Samuel Richardson, but the prospect of his position as the first celebrity novelist – responsible for courting his own fame as well as initiating his own fan club – has largely been ignored. The body of manuscripts housed at the National Art Library in the Victoria and Albert Museum in London provides the modern scholar with evidence of the skeletal beginnings of an early fan club. This thesis aims to show how these manuscripts were turned into a saleable commodity by the publisher and entrepreneur Richard Phillips, while under the guiding hand of another, slightly later, literary celebrity, Anna Laetitia Barbauld. In order to restore Richardson’s reputation amongst a new nineteenth century audience, Barbauld was required to construct her own idea of him as an eighteenth century celebrity author, and in doing so the insecurities of a self-professed, apparently diffident man, are revealed. Barbauld’s capacious, but heavily edited selection of letters is analyzed in this thesis, providing ample evidence that Richardson’s correspondents were more than just eager letter writers. By using Barbauld’s biography of Richardson this thesis aims to show how she manipulates the genre of life writing in her construction of him.
This thesis offers an alternative reading of how the Richardson manuscripts are viewed, redefining them as not simply a collection of letters, but as a collective entity, deliberately selected and archived as evidence of an early modern fan club, and its celebrity managing director

The Making of a London Author
No full text“The Making of a London Author” will expand further on Joyce’s interactions with Cambridge-based institutions such as C. K. Ogden’s Orthological Institute and London-based ones, including the publisher Faber and Faber and Eliot’s work there. Scholarship has largely overlooked Eliot’s ambitious plans for the international availability of Joyce’s work through London: the promotion of the Anna Livia Plurabelle record, the Anna Livia Plurabelle and Haveth Childers Everywhere pamphlets, and the contract for the long-pending Finnegans Wake. The chapter will delineate Joyce’s close collaborations with Ogden and Eliot to promote his work through divergent media alongside Herbert Hughes’ presentation of the Anna Livia Plurabelle record in London’s Daily Telegraph newspaper. The impact of such strategies on other publishing outlets including the Times newspaper will also be assessed.</p
"Lost" plant collections from the Amazon 1. The 1899 expedition of Dr. Luigi Buscalioni.
No full textA truly forgotten Amazonian botanical collection was that made by Dr. Luigi Buscalioni (1863-1954), whose 1899 expedition to southeastern Amazonia and particularly the edaphic savannas and transitions to drier savanna woodlands of the Brazilian Planalto at the southeastern edge of Amazonia-part of it still a botanical frontier-produced some 5,000 collections of plants and fungi. He traveled up the Tocantins and Araguaia rivers, penetrating into what are now the states of Tocantins and Goias. Buscalioni's was a relatively early expedition for Amazonia: only six substantial collections (> 1,000 numbers) are known to have been made prior to 1900 in all of Brazilian Amazonia. Moreover, the upper Rio Tocantins and the Rio Araguaia remain poorly known botanically, so his collection undoubtedly contains much valuable information about the original flora of that region. This information unfortunately has been unavailable, however, because most of the collection languished in bundles at the RO herbarium for the best part of a hundred years, from the turn of the century until 1984, when the junior author discovered their existence during a re-organization of the RO herbarium, and 1995, when a visit by the senior author coincided with the recovery of revealing historical archives. The label information and preliminary taxonomy have now been data-based and are available over the Internet. In addition to his collections, Buscalioni's Amazonian legacy includes participation in debates about the origins of myrmecophily and the Amazonian savannas, the botanical identity of the commercial latex called caucho, and (indirectly) the founding of the INPA research institute in Manaus, Brazil. His scientific reputation and especially his efforts to found an international institute for Amazon plant research in Brazil brought him into dialogue with the great botanists of the day
