Abstract:

A small suite of historically significant Cornish minerals are recorded as having been donated to the Bath Royal Literary and Scientific Institution (BRLSI) by Lord De Dunstanville in 1826. Only sixteen specimens are extant but their quality, and the fact that they appeared to represent the largest known suite of mineral specimens owned by Francis Basset, 1st Baron De Dunstanville and Baron Basset of Stratton (1757-1835), marked them out as being of significance and worthy of further study. Subsequent investigations revealed a second, slightly larger suite of mineral specimens attributed to Lo

Abstract:

IN A BRILLIANTLY SUGGESTIVE ARTICLE, the urban historian Lewis Mumford defined the form of the “archetypal city” as follows: First of all, the city is the creation of a king…acting in the name of a god. The king's first act, the very key to his authority and potency, is the erection of a temple within a heavily walled sacred enclosure. And the construction of another wall to enclose the subservient community turns the whole area into a sacred place: a city. (12) This ancient city, which arose just before the beginning of recorded history, is double walled. It has an inner as well as an outer b

Abstract:

The poet Rabindranath Tagore (1861–1941) was the founder of an institution that we know today as Visva-Bharati University at Santiniketan in rural southern Bengal. The making of this institution was central to his concerns to the end of his life. He offered it as an alternative to the colonial system of education then prevailing in India. Starting it as an experimental school in 1901 he added an international university and an institute of rural reconstruction in 1921–1922. It was an education to bring city and village together by combining traditional knowledge with scientific experimentation

Abstract:

The relevance of the article’s topic is determined by the fact that the etchings of Giovanni Battista Piranesi, one of Mstislav Valerianovich Dobuzhinsky’s favorite artists, have never been specifically examined as artistic sources of his work.The scientific novelty of this article lies in the fact that it is the first attempt to analyze the influence of G.B. Piranesi’s etchings on the works of M.V. Dobuzhinsky. The author uses a complex method that combined the source analysis of the artist’s memoirs and letters, the traditional formal analysis of his works in comparison with Piranesi’s etchi

This article summarizes the arguments within the scientific debate on medical personnel management. The main goal is to study the medical personnel management system in three blocks: planning, analysis and improvement of personnel work. The systematization of literary sources and approaches to solving issues of medical personnel management shows that there is a significant range of unsolved problems related precisely to the importance of improving the processes of medical personnel management as a necessary component of the development strategy of the medical industry.

Abstract Purpose Recently, a vast number of scientific publications have been produced in cities in emerging countries. It has long been observed that the publication output of Beijing has exceeded that of any other city in the world, including such leading centres of science as Boston, New York, London, Paris, and Tokyo. Researchers have suggested that, instead of focusing on cities’ total publication output, the quality of the output in terms of the number of highly cited papers should be examined. However, in the period from 2014 to 2016, Beijing produced as many highly cited papers as Bost

The problem statement. In Ukraine, libraries are not popular among the population as a place for leisure. The low popularity of libraries is the reason for global access to the Internet. The Internet, which is the reason for this, can help solve the problem of the low popularity of libraries in Ukraine. Examples of successful use of social networks in the process of promoting libraries are the libraries of New York, London or Paris. The purpose of the study is to develop a set of measures to promote the library. The methodology.

Abstract:

Henry James's Autobiography recalls a first vision of “vast portentous London” in 1855, and contrasts brother William's boredom to his own imaginative response to the city (Small Boy 157, 170–71). Having moved there, he feels that amid the “London scene” he can fully exercise his “intellectual curiosity,” feeding “on the great supporting and enclosing scene itself” (Middle Years 553, 564). A later announcement to William Dean Howells that “henceforth I must do, or half do, England in fiction” comes as no surprise (Letters 284). James would follow up his intention in half-a-dozen novels, gradua

This chapter focuses on the founder of the Athenæum, John Wilson Croker. Croker created a new kind of club, which had no political affiliation, which chose its members on the basis of achievements rather than birth, and which was to benefit from the rapid rise of an expanding middle class. Croker knew about clubs, and he also knew literary, scientific, and artistic London better than most. Many of the Athenæum's 'original' members, as those elected in the first year or so were called, moved in the same political and intellectual circles, in the House of Commons and the Admiralty, at John Murra

Abstract:

Abstract H. G. Wells, an early student at the Royal College of Science in South Kensington, described his Alma Mater in crushing terms: ‘a fungoid assemblage of buildings, without visible centre, guiding purpose or directing brain’. Written long after his days there, when Imperial College could indeed describe itself as the Charlottenburg of London, one has to conclude that Wells could not resist the temptation to pay off old scores. Indeed he was an untypical witness, and his career there came to an unhappy end. Nevertheless his criticisms direct our attention towards the apparently unplanned

This chapter discusses the battle between literature and science for domination of sociology, a topic that has rather been neglected as a theme in the history of sociology in Britain if also perhaps overheated nowadays in exchanges over relativism between the denizens of ‘cultural studies’ and the proponents of a ‘science of society’. The chapter argues that, traditionally, the social territory belonged to literature and philosophy. A challenge was then raised by science especially in the nineteenth century. Then, especially in the twentieth century, social science developed so as to turn a bi

Here I shall try to sum up Rabbinic evidence on the subject and thus define the office and duties of the agoranomos in Roman Palestine.

It notes that the term ‘mechanics’ did not refer to the ‘labouring poor’ or paupers. Three quarters were ‘operatives,’ men who worked with their hands or identified as members of the ‘working class’.
