Dibdin's Bibliomania is an anthem to the printed book, a warning to
the unwary about the perils of obsessive book-collecting, and the
confessions of a rabid book-collector. As a casual glance at the
book will show, Dibdin's footnotes predominate over text, and it is
in the footnotes that the interest lies. They invite questions as
often as they answer them. What is the supposed similarity between
'Orator' Henley's library and Addison's memoranda for the
Spectator? What cutting words did Edward Gibbon write about Thomas
Hearne? Why should we not be surprised to find a book on American
history by a Spanish admiral in the library of the President of the
Royal Society? Who was Captain Cox who 'could talk as much without
book, as any Innholder betwixt Brentford and Bagshot'? Was Polydore
Vergil a plagiarist and John Bagford a biblioclast? What is
bloterature? Sometimes Dibdin tells us, sometimes he assumes we
know, and sometimes he chooses to tantalise us. The endnotes
provide some of the answers and will, it is hoped, lead readers to
discover new books and new writers, or, more often and more
pleasurably, old books and old writers. This book is based upon
Dibdin's first edition of 1809, to which have been added an
introduction and eighty-five pages of valuable endnotes, mostly
concerned with biographical details of the printers, librarians,
bookbinders, writers, book-collectors and Bibliomaniacs to whom
Dibdin refers. An appendix contains John Ferriar's Bibliomania, the
poem which prompted Dibdin's work. There are also a substantial
bibliography and index. This book will be invaluable to
bibliographers, librarians, cultural historians and all those
interested in books and book people. It gives a valuable insights
into antiquarianism in general and book-collecting in particular.
Dibdin's book ranges widely, from Juliana Barnes, Wynkyn de Worde,
Michael Maittaire and the St Albans Schoolmaster, to Thomas Hope,
Edward Rowe Mores, William Hunter and Horace Walpole. Many of his
footnotes (which take up far more of the book than the text)
contain details of the important book sales of the eighteenth and
early nineteenth century to tantalise the reader: Caxton's Boke of
Chivalrie selling for 11 shillings in 1756; Grenville's 1800
edition of Homer selling for an astounding GBP99 15s in 1804. Peter
Danckwerts studied Book Publishing at Oxford Polytechnic,
Bibliography & Textual Criticism at the University of Leeds,
Mathematics with the Open University, and Medieval Studies at
Birkbeck College, University of London. He is currently preparing
an edition of Byron's English Bards and Scotch Reviewers for Tiger
of the Stripe.
By the 1970s, Robt. Jowitt & Sons was believed to be the oldest
surviving wool company in Britain. From a small family concern it
grew into a large international business before suffering from the
general decline in domestic demand and increase in overseas
competition which afflicted all British wool businesses. This book
tells the story of the company and the family behind it. In the
seventeenth century, the Jowitts were persecuted for being Quakers.
By hard work and moderate habits, they escaped poverty to become
leading opinion-formers and benefactors in nineteenth-century
Leeds. They backed the Reform Bill, fought tirelessly against the
slave trade and were instrumental in setting up the Leeds branch of
the Cotton Districts Relief Fund. Th ey were a major force behind
the General Infirmary, the Medical School and the University. As
well as business records and newspaper articles, the book draws
upon unpublished diaries which give a fascinating glimpse into the
private lives of the Jowitts, in particular John Jowitt junior and
Deborah Benson's trip to Europe in 1835, the year before their
marriage. The diaries also shed light on the family's central role
in the Beaconite controversy which caused many, including the
Jowitts, to leave the Society of Friends. Peter Danckwerts studied
at Oxford Polytechnic, the University of Leeds, the Open University
and Birkbeck College, University of London.
'If the editor has allowed himself to become as Dibdinesque as his
subject, then it is all part of the fun of a work where references
and citations run back and forth like so many ink rollers on a
printing press.' - Rare Book Review 'a usefully annotated edition'

(Autor) Rainer Danckwerts / Dankwart Vogel (Titel) Analysis
verstandlich unterrichten (HL) Das aktuellste Werk auf dem Markt
(copy) Ein fur die Lehreraus- und -weiterbildung konzipiertes Buch
zur Didaktik der Analysis, das - ausgehend vom Status quo des
Analysisunterrichts neue Perspektiven eroffnet - sich dabei auf
einen ausgewiesenen und aktuellen fachdidaktischen Bezugsrahmen
stutzt und - einen deutlich unterrichtsbezogenen Akzent setzt. Nach
Klarung der fachdidaktischen Grundposition werden alle etablierten
Themenfelder grundlich beleuchtet: Folgen, Ableitungen und
Integral, Kurvendiskussion und Extremwertprobleme. (Biblio)
Dieser Band gibt eine elementare, praxisnahe Einf hrung in die
Zahlbereiche der nat rlichen Zahlen, der Bruchzahlen, der
rationalen, der reellen und der komplexen Zahlen. Zielgruppen sind
Studenten der Mathematik f r die Sekundarstufe I oder II, der
Primarstufe mit Mathematik als Wahlfach sowie Mathematiklehrer vor
allem der Sekundarstufe I oder II.
Auch soziologische Forschungsberichte sind - wie jedwede anderen .
vor fachwis- senschaftlicher Borniertheit nicht gefeit. Selbst wenn
im Anspruch die Berucksichtigung gesellschaftstheoretischer Ansatze
enthalten ist, was allemal gefordert werden muss, und dieser auch
zu Teilen eingeloest wird, bleiben die Projekte von dringlicher
Interdisziplinaritat weit entfernt. Dies ist auch der erste
selbstkritische Einwand fur die vorliegende Untersuchung. Sie ist
Teil des Abschlussberichts uber das Forschungs-und
Vermittlungsprojekt "Arbeitsbedingungen im Gutertransportsystem "
(SuTech 56) -es wurde vom Minister fur Arbeit, Gesundheit und
Soziales des Landcs Nordrhein- Westfalen im Rahmen des Programms
"Mensch und Technik - sozial- vertragliche Technikgestaltung"
gefoerdert. Es hatte eine Laufzeit von zwei Jahren (E87 und 1988).
' Die Arbeit an der vorliegenden Studie wurde Anfang 1989
abgeschlossen. Ihr Gegenstandsbereich hat als
"Verkehrswissenschaft" Tradition. Seine Zuordnungen banden ihn
bislang vornehmlich an wirtschaftswissenschaftliche Zusammen-hange
in empirischer wie theoretischer Hinsicht. Soziologisches Interesse
hat kaum ansatzweise einen Zugriff gefunden. Die
technisch-ingenieurwissenschaft1ichen Aspekte wurden aufgrund des
moeglichen laienhaften Nachvollzuges - auf die Details der
Umsetzung kam es in nationaloekonomischer Sicht nicht an
-vernachlassigt. Das Machbare, das sich je abzeichnete, reichte
aus, den wirtschaftlichen und politischen Kontext umzugestalten.
Der Mensch blieb im Hintergrund, bedrohliche Konfliktlagen, die
sich mit Inter- essengegensatzen oder/und mangelnder Disponibilitat
der Arbeitenden abzeichneten, wurden sicherheits- bzw.
ordnungspolitisch geregelt oder dem Markt zur wirtschaftskonformen
Korrektur uberlassen. Staats-und Unternehmensinteressen bildeten
zumeist eine Synthese, wenngleich nicht immer folgenlos fur Teile
der letztgenannten.

'He was the greatest composer that ever lived,' said Beethoven of
Handel. 'He is the father of us all,' wrote Haydn. This short,
vivid biography of Handel reminds us of the composer's greatness.
Separate chapters are devoted to the Messiah, the Harmonious
Blacksmith, Handel's organ at Cannons, and his will and codicils. A
few notes and an index have been added to this revised and reset
edition. William Hayman Cummings (1831-1915) was a singer and music
historian. He taught singing at the Royal Normal School and the
School for the Blind before being appointed a professor at the
Royal Academy of Music in 1879. In 1896 he was appointed principal
of the Guildhall School of Music. His historical studies of music
and musicians led to him being made a Fellow of the Society of
Antiquaries in 1884.
William Cummings's highly regarded biography of has been revised
and reset to mark the 250th anniversary of the birth of Henry
Purcell, one of the greatest English composers of all time. Few
other composers can boast the originality or the range which
Purcell displayed - from sacred music, to airs, to tavern songs and
the first great English opera, Dido and Eneas. As well as following
Purcell's life and career, the book provides appendices on
Purcell's family, the organists, choirmasters and copyists of
Westminster Abbey, and a list of important dates in the composer's
life. William H. Cummings was Principal of the Guildhall School of
Music, London, and a noted music historian.
William Coxe (1748-1828) was the stepson of Handel's amanuensis,
John Christopher Smith. As such, he was ideally placed to write a
biography of Smith, and also of Handel. These Anecdotes are
therefore important sources for the lives of both composers. It is
notable that many of the subscribers were close friends of Smith.
The style of the original 1799 text is refreshingly simple and
unaffected, and little change has been necessary to make it
accessible to the modern reader. An introduction, notes and index
have been added. William Coxe was a talented writer and historian
whose output include several travel books and volumes on both
Robert and Horace Walpole. He died at the age of eighty in his
parish of Bemerton, Wiltshire. John Sharp, in a letter to
Constable, wrote that he 'died of old age, unable to contend with
two helps of salmon in lobster sauce, washed down with large
draughts of Perry'.
