A Reference Guide for English Studies
This text is an introduction to the full range of standard reference tools in all branches of English studies. More than 10,000 titles are included. The Reference Guide covers all the areas traditionally defined as English studies and all the field of inquiry more recently associated with English studies. British and Irish, American and world literatures written in English are included. Other fields covered are folklore, film, literary theory, general and comparative literature, language and linguistics, rhetoric and composition, bibliography and textual criticism and women's studies.
Black Lives in the English Archives, 1500-1677
Containing an urgently needed archival database of historical evidence, this volume includes both a consolidated presentation of the documentary records of black people in Tudor and Stuart England, and an interpretive narrative that confirms and significantly extends the insights of current theoretical excursus on race in early modern England. The systematic, chronological descriptive index combined with the interpretive scholarship provides a strong framework from which future historical debates on race in early modern England can proceed.
Operator Theory with a Random Potential, and Some Questions of Statistical Physics
This collection is devoted to problems of operator theory with a random potential and a number of problems of statistical physics. For the Schrodinger operator with a potential randomly depending on time, mean wave operators, and the mean scattering operator are computed, and it is shown that the averaged dynamics behaves like free dynamics in the limit of infinite time. Results of applying the method of functional integration to some problems of statistical physics are presented: the theory of systems with model Hamiltonians and their dynamics, ferromagnetic systems of spin 1/2, Coulomb and quantum crystals. This collection is intended for specialists in spectral theory and statistical physics.
Scholarly Book Collecting in Restoration Scotland
The wide scholarly interests of Scots in the Restoration period are analysed by Murray Simpson through this in-depth study of the library of James Nairn (1629–1678), a Scottish parish minister. Nairn's collection demonstrates a remarkable receptivity to new intellectual ideas. At some two thousand titles Nairn’s is the biggest library formed in this period for which we have detailed and accurate records. The collection is analysed by subject. In addition, there is a biographical study and chapters investigating aspects of the Scottish book market and comparing other contemporary Scottish clerical libraries. A short-title catalogue of the collection, giving references to relevant online bibliographies and catalogues, a select provenance index and a subject index complete the work.
