“From daddy’s obedient Henric”: Pedagogical perspectives on educational travel of the early 1800s. This article analyses educational travel in the early 1800s from the perspective of its educational heritage and praxis. The aim is to develop an understanding of the pedagogical significance of educational travel. The article makes clear how upbringing and education are represented in the framework of travel narratives in pre-industrial landscapes. The argument is based on the influence of the mercantile class on educational travel and the informal effect of these trips on changes in pedagogical

AbstractThis paper investigates comparison as a fundamental practice within the early life sciences. Four episodes are selected that show how comparing species works in the early 19th century and how it builds bridges between scientific and literary culture: comparing living organisms in pre-Darwinian natural history (Lacépède, Treviranus), comparing species distribution in actualistic geology (Lyell), comparing organs in comparative anatomy (Müller), and – last but not least – comparing social classes in new literary genres such as sketch, ‘Paris physiology’, or travel feuilleton.

Swedish Short Stories in the Early 19th Century. Publication and Subgenres
 The present study of Swedish short stories published between the years 1810 and 1829 illustrates that authors representing the Romantic Movement made special efforts to put the short story on the market. At V. F. Palmblad’s publishing house, German contemporary short stories were translated and distributed, later followed by Swedish contributions to the genre, which appeared primarily in literary magazines. Only a small number of short stories were published over the course of these 19 years, and the means of publ

Abstract In this paper, we are going to demonstrate that the writings of Russian travelers of the early 19th century laid the foundation of a discourse of Slavism. The travelers stopped perceiving the Balkans as part of the Near East and began considering them as ‘Ours’. This allowed the Russians to assert their identity within the boundaries of the European community while simultaneously separating themselves from the Roman-Germanic “West”. We examined four different types of descriptions of the Balkans by Russian travelers of the 1800–1830s. The authors’ approaches to these narratives were e

This essay examines a particular nexus of ideas about health and circulation in relation to the practice and the literature of travel and tourism in Romantic-period Britain. Wales, like other ‘picturesque’ destinations, is often envisaged in these writings, and in fiction, as a space of non-metropolitan purity, of clean air, and of health. Yet this is precisely the period of industrial expansion in both south and north Wales, and coal-mines, copper-works, iron foundries and smelting furnaces also figured on many tourist itineraries.

By considering Plato's and Isocrates' thoughts on lexis, Chapter 1 outlines the intellectual context in which Aristotle's ideas on the concept of lexis developed.

AbstractIn the early nineteenth century, sex work was one of the many ways for poor women to earn a living. In addition to sex work, women who sold sex also did laundering and other cleaning work, worked as tavern maids, petty traders, or as servants for families. This chapter investigates female sex workers who travelled and moved between different towns and counties. In general, sex work did not seem to stigmatize women among the poor. Most sex workers did not stand out, neither socially nor geographically, from other disadvantaged town dwellers. However, as the analysis demonstrates, one group of women were indeed condemned, namely mobile women, who travelled around, selling sex at fairs and in marketplaces.

Abstract:
AbstractAround 1800, merchants, scientists and adventurers travelled to Latin America with different purposes. Their multifaceted interests in a world region, experiencing a threshold of independence from Spanish colonial rule, inspired new historical and political works about the continent’s recent past. The Enlightenment provided not only the philosophical armamentarium against corruption, but it also paved the way to a new expression of sentiments and to the loss of fear when addressing injustice. Some examples of these are Hipólito Villaroel’s list of grievances and Humboldt’s Political essay. These two authors provide some thoughts on the political landscape of New Spain (now Mexico), while the two Swiss physicians Rengger and Longchamp describe the ruthless and odd dictator Francia of independent Paraguay as a champion of anti-corruption. Finally, Argentine dictator Rosas—and his robberies as described by Rivera Indarte, Sarmiento and other anonymous authors—represent the embodiment of corruption through pure larceny, for whose crimes the Spanish colonial past apparently no longer served as a comparison.

Abstract:
The human population of the earth took the whole of its existence until 1800 to build to 1 billion. By 2000 it had exceeded 6 billion, more than doubling in the twentieth century alone. In 1800, the time taken to navigate the globe by sailing ship was about a year. Today, no two cities served by commercial aircraft are more than a couple of days apart. Since this is less than most disease incubation times, infected people can travel undetected—a concern noted from the early days of commercial air travel. Within developed countries, the rate of individual circulation (in terms of average distances travelled) has increased 1,000-fold in the last 200 years. While the processes of population growth and geographical churn have been at work for the whole of human history, it is in the last two centuries that the momentum of change has gathered increasing pace. As described in Section 2.1, McMichael (2004) recognizes four separate stages. (i) Early human settlements from c.5,000 to c.10,000 years ago enabled enzootic pathogens to enter Homo sapiens populations. Some of these encounters led to the emergence of many of today’s textbook infections: influenza, tuberculosis, cholera, typhoid, smallpox, measles, malaria, and many others. (ii) Eurasian military and commercial contacts c.1,500 to c.3,000 years ago with swapping of dominant infections between the Mediterranean and Chinese civilizations. As described in Section 2.2, the plagues and pestilences of classical Greece and Rome date from this period. (iii) European exploration and imperialism from c.1500 with the transoceanic spread of often lethal infectious diseases. The impact on the Americas, on Australasia, and on remote island populations is well known; ships’ crews and passengers were the devastating vectors. (iv) The fourth great transition is today’s globalization, acting through demographic change and accelerating levels of contacts between the different parts of the world to facilitate disease emergence, re-emergence, and spatial transfer. Global warming, the destabilization of environments, the unparalleled movement of peoples rapidly across the globe through air transport, are all part of an evolving host–microbe relationship (cf. Section 1.3.1).

Abstract:
It is generally recognized that cotton textiles made in the Indian subcontinent dominated global markets until outcompeted by Britain’s industrially manufactures in the early 1800s. However, scholars have now nuanced this meta-narrative by era, Indian sub-region, artisan class, and textile type. Building on studies by Chhaya Goswami and Jeremy Prestholdt, this chapter explores the shifting fates of handcrafted ‘Indian cloth’ imports in the years 1800–1900 in eastern Africa. Employing an object-centred approach, it scrutinizes the category of ‘cloth’ as much as the modifiers of ‘British’, ‘Indian’, ‘Gujarati’, or ‘Kutchi’. It shows that of seven basic cloth types, handcrafted goods from western India held a significant share of many. It supports Haynes’ (2012) work that Indian textile artisans did not merely survive in the age of industrialization; they actively innovated. Colour was often key, highlighting the importance of India’s dyers and printers, often overlooked in favour of spinners and weavers.

Abstract This chapter describes song collecting trips made in Connacht and Ulster in 1802 and 1803 by Patrick Lynch (c.1750s–1838) of Loughinisland, Co. Down, for Edward Bunting and the promoters of the 1792 Belfast Harp Festival. The some four hundred Irish-language traditional pieces recorded by Lynch constitute the most important early collection of Irish song. He wrote them in longhand manuscript, mainly in Co. Mayo, and subsequently rewrote them in Gaelic script and translated them into English. His manuscripts are listed here and their history traced; they remain largely unpublished among those of Bunting in the Library of Queens University Belfast. In surviving letters and a journal, Lynch also preserved details of his source singers and of his collecting experiences and strategies. The social and political contexts of Lynch’s work are outlined, including his connections with the Irish-language scribal tradition and with Thomas Russell and the United Irishmen movement.

Abstract:
While our selection of the time period, AD 1850–1990, for the analytical work we undertake in Chapters 3 to 12 is conditioned by the availability of consolidated morbidity and mortality data for both military and civil populations from the middle of the nineteenth century, this time-window gives only the most recent outlook upon an association between war and disease which can be traced back to the great struggles of ancient times. So in the present chapter, in so far as the historical record allows, we review the early history of war epidemics. Our narrative follows a temporal sequence. We consider in turn evidence from antiquity (1500 BC–AD 500) (Sect. 2.2), the Middle Ages (AD 500–1500) (Sect. 2.3), and the modern period (AD 1500–1850) (Sect. 2.4–2.6). To obtain a picture of the geographical distribution of belligerent parties and associated conflicts, 1500 BC–AD 1850, Table 2.1 is based on a subset of the information included in Table 1.4 and gives the number of units engaged in each of the c.2,000 wars and war-like events listed by Kohn (1999). All told, Table 2.1 identifies 2,267 engagements, with the number rising from 365 (antiquity), to 786 (Middle Ages) and 1,116 (modern). As noted in Section 1.2.3, the Old World and Europe especially dominate the geographical record; entry of the New World awaited European colonization in the modern period and the beginning of a written record for the Americas and Oceania. As a marker of recorded conflicts, Table 2.1 defines the broad geographical limits to an historical review of war-related epidemics. A review of all the wars that underpin the tabulation is outside the compass of this book. As noted in Section 1.4, relevant information is simply not available for the majority of early wars while, even for relatively recent conflicts, the nature of the disease(s) that beset military and civil populations continues to defy confident retrospective diagnosis. Inevitably, language barriers offer a further limit to our coverage. But within these constraints it is possible to sample from the available evidence and to obtain some idea of the magnitude and scope of war epidemics prior to AD 1850.

Abstract:
Seventeenth century New England was home to a critical mass of both English and Indigenous bilinguals, which reveals that these neighbours lived in intimate proximity to one another for decades and spoke each other’s languages in ways that directed the politics, trade, and cultural development of the region. These bilinguals included the more familiar figures of adult men involved in trading, colonial politics, and missionary work, but a closer look reveals these bilinguals also included English and Indigenous women and children. Cooking, both the process and physical space of the kitchen, was a vital part of their language acquisition. Peering into the kitchen offers a rare glimpse into the regular interactions between English and Indigenous men, women, and children on New England’s borderlands.

Abstract:
This essay addresses the impact of industrialisation on the experience of work during the early 1800s. It presents the idea that industrial relations focused less on trade unions and more on broad labour/management contact and gave a new emphasis to the significance of the labour process. Also featured is a map of The Port of London in the 1830s, which is used as an example for evidence of change within the pre-industrial pattern of management/labour relations.

Abstract:
This introductory chapter traces the rediscovery of the story of the Inca Empire and the Spanish conquest of Peru from the early 1800s to the present. It shows how the work of natural historians and antiquarians developed into the scholarly disciplines of history and archaeology, and how key bodies, sites, and events came to carry the broader significance of the conquest. Moving past the triumphal tone that Western writers used at the time, this book develops the idea of apocalypse to show that people living in the Andean and Iberian worlds held beliefs about how the universe would end, values that shaped their actions and interpretations of the conquest of Peru.

Abstract:
This chapter traces this complex history of aestheticism, socialist aesthetics, and early modernism through a study of the development of William Morris's works in the later nineteenth century. Placing Morris's aesthetic development in the context of the writings of John Ruskin and Walter Pater, the discussion explore Morris's resistance to an emerging aesthetic that emphasized individual taste and consumption, rather than communal production. In his socialist essays, Signs of Change (1888) Morris developed an aesthetic continuum that enabled him to collapse the distinction between art and bodily labour and imagine a future of communal artistic production after the revolution. Both the radical nature of Morris's aesthetic and its preoccupation with productive masculinity are emphasized by contrasting his work to Wilde's essay ‘The Soul of Man under Socialism’ (1891).

Abstract:
In the area of linear motion, infinite stroke only is provided by electric actuators today, until now there has been no hydraulic alternative. The novel linear hydraulic actuator consists of two double acting cylinders with a common piston rod. The working principle of this actuator for short movements is that at least one piston is connected to the piston rod and the actuator works like an ordinary hydraulic double acting cylinder. For longer movements one of the pistons is connected alternatively to the piston rod providing the drive. In this way the two pistons are moving the piston rod alt
