This chapter discusses the concept of a database and its specific application to crystallography. Crystallographic databases generally contain bibliographic and experimental information, which in most cases includes the positions of atoms in the crystal structure together with other data allowing the structure to be represented graphically, analysed geometrically, and manipulated. Computer searches may be carried out based on any of the information stored, if the associated software provides the relevant functionality; these may include matching particular structural fragments based on chemical connectivity, as well as individual experimental and data items. Results may then be subjected to detailed statistical analysis or other treatment. Some possible uses are described. The crystallographic databases available are the Cambridge Structural Database, the Inorganic Crystal Structure Database, CrystMet for metals and related materials, and the Protein Data Bank and associated nucleobase database.Less

It suggests additional readings, studies of specific movements, how to use primary source materials, studies of the wider cultural context, miscellaneous edited collections, and general reference works. The aim is to identify a few publications that can be valuable for preparing lectures or for writing term papers, including classic social science and reliable descriptive studies of particular new religions.Less

A bibliography of the complete works of Archie Brown is presented from the mid-1960s to the present. These provide valuable insights on the nature of the Soviet Union, its transition from Communism, and on post-Soviet Russia’s ambiguous process of democratisation. Annotations are divided into nine thematic categories: links between Scottish and Russian enlightenments; Czechoslovakia, 1963-1968, and Eastern Europe under Soviet power; Soviet politics pre-1985; the Gorbachev Era; Russian politics and transition, 1992-2004; works spanning the Soviet and post-Soviet eras, 1917-2004; British Politics; other writings; and examples of substantial reviews and review articles.Less

This chapter provides a bicentennial bibliographical chapter about the Mormon founder. It divides the voluminous manuscript sources on Smith into the various categories of journals, sermons and discourses, revelations, correspondence, personal history, administrative records, legal documents and judicial history, early Mormon publications, the papers of Smith's associates, and accounts of Smith's contemporaries. The chapter also separates the hundreds of published sources on Smith into sections on bibliographical guides and sources, diaries and personal writings, sermons and discourses and writings, personal history, revelations, and biographical studies.Less

This book focuses on the sociolinguistic consequences of historical contact between indigenous Irish peoples and newer English and Scottish settlers in what is now the territory of Northern Ireland (NI). The contact varieties that resulted represent the oldest L2 ‘Englishes’ globally. Moreover, the degree of admixture from English, Irish and Scots in the contemporary dialects of NI reflects various external forces. Naturally, these varieties share certain structural features with sister Celtic Englishes and indeed with other vernacular Englishes globally (partly because of extensive emigration from NI post-1700 and partly due to universal tendencies of various types). However, there are other linguistic traits that seem to be unique and therefore essentially local. Irish English, Volume 1: Northern Ireland aims to provide insights into the evolution of language in 21st century NI and to promote an understanding of linguistic diversity in this region in the context of World Englishes.Less

An English translation of the oldest and most important early Christian non‐canonical writings. It is based on the earlier collection edited in 1924 by Montague Rhodes James. The book is divided into the conventional categories of gospels, acts, epistles, and revelatory texts. A long subsection deals with stories of Jesus’ infancy and childhood. Another section deals with fragmentary gospel texts on papyrus. The bulk of the book is given over to second‐century legends of individual apostles. Another section covers apocryphal acpocalypses. An appendix gives a selection of stories about the Virgin Mary's assumption and dormition. Each translated text is prefaced with an introduction and select bibliography. Full indexes of citations and themes are provided.Less

This volume is the first published study to bring together a variety of materials which represent the life and works of Sir Granville Bantock (1868-1946), British composer, arranger, editor, music department administrator, competitive singing promoter and adjudicator, world traveler, lover of life, literature and philosophy, radio talk presenter, champion of works of other rising British composers over his own, husband and father. His works alone total over 600, yet many remain in manuscript housed for access at the Cadbury Special Collections Library on the campus of the University of Birmingham. The reader will find citations of reviews of his music, reviews of performances during his lifetime and beyond as well as reviews of recordings both then in now in contemporary and modern newspapers and journals. Commercial and archival recordings are noted and locations given. Manuscripts that remain extant are identified and located. Up to and including 10 representative national and international live performances are noted for each work with names and venues provided. Within the Works section of the book are subcategories by medium for which they were composed for easy identification with minimal information the reader has at hand prior to opening the volume. The sketchbooks are also detailed with what materials are contained in each. Within the Bibliography section are citations of obituaries, writings by GB, dissertations, and pertinent files at: the BBC, Worcestershire Archive, Liverpool Record Office and Trinity Laban Conservatoire to name a few.Less

In this book, Mark Blum offers a critical look at the thought and impact of the late thirteenth‐century Buddhist historian Gyōnen (1240–1321) and the emergent Pure Land school of Buddhism founded by Hōnen (1133–1212). Blum also provides a clear and fully annotated translation of Gyōnen's Jōdo Hōmon Genrushō, the first history of Pure Land Buddhism, and his only known surviving Pure Land text. Part I of the study, Gyōnen and Kamakura Pure Land Buddhism, largely concerns Gyōnen himself. One of his most lasting impacts was as fashioner of a view of Buddhist history that Japanese society was to find quite persuasive for the next 600 years, and it is the author's thesis that he should be regarded as the first proper Buddhist historian in Japan and that the Genrushō should be seen as an important expression of his historical perspective. The Genrushō is both a philosophical inquiry into the historical nature of orthodox Pure Land doctrine and a remarkable record of people of religious impact in this tradition who actively led lineage ‘branches’ of the Jōdo school (Jōdoshū) during the Kamakura period. Part II, The Origins and Development of the Pure Land Teaching, presents a full translation, the first in any modern language (including Japanese) of the Genrushō itself. Detailed annotation is provided in notes to the numerous people, texts, monasteries, geographical locations, and doctrinal concepts named in the text. Part III is a facsimile of the xylograph edition upon which the translation is based. There are three appendices: Appendix A is a concordance to the translation; Appendix B looks at Gyōnen's personal Pure Land beliefs; and Appendix C provides a list of Gyōnen's known extant works. There are two bibliographies for the book, one of primary and the other of secondary sources, and also a select glossary.Less

The Introduction sets out the methodological approach of the book: it draws upon a tradition of regional historical studies, much indebted to economic and historical geography, to investigate the reasons why and methods whereby cities in an urban belt of central Europe constructed landed territories. It is not concerned to trace the political, juridical, and cultural achievements of medieval city‐states, especially those in Italy. The study is firmly comparative, but does not presume that a single archetype of the medieval city‐state existed. Constraints of space prevent detailed treatment of regional economic systems, a topic on which much research remains to be undertaken. The book is divided into broad chronological chapters spanning around 150 years, the last of which examines thematically the capacity of city‐states to survive by transformation and adaption.Less

Theories of the Text is a comprehensive account of the changing practice of bibliography, textual criticism, and scholarly editing in the light of the diverse currents of contemporary critical theory. It offers both an introduction to the history of textual debate and an account of the current debates over such issues as authorial intention, textual organicism, the socialization of the text, and intertextuality. Despite the positivist tradition of textual scholarship, the author argues, such work is a hermeneutic activity taking place within certain (usually unacknowledged) social and cultural conceptual constraints.Less

This chapter is a bibliography of Kierkegaard's works which have been translated in English, from the years 1843 to 1964.

Lewis Theobald's own edition of William Shakespeare has received almost unanimous approval from subsequent, and especially from twentieth-century, historians of the subject. T. R. Lounsbury's lengthy defence of Theobald in The First Editors of Shakespeare was followed by R. F. Jones's Lewis Theobald, which first made clear the extent of Theobald's indebtedness to the textual-critical techniques of classical philology; later, more general surveys of the field, such as those of R. B. McKerrow and Brian Vickers, have singled out Theobald's criticism for praise; most recently, Peter Scary's full-length book has made an extensive and thoroughly documented case for Theobald's attention to Shakespearian bibliography and for his anticipation of the methods and tenets of the New Bibliographers. It is evident that much of Theobald's theory and practice mark a significant break with the previous course of criticism of English texts.Less

The Introduction makes the case for the intersection between feminist literary history, history of the book, and the study of materiality, briefly outlining these fields by analysing Woolf's foundational plea for A Room of One's Own. It explores the different models offered recently for the study of the material text, particularly the circuit and the map, and suggests that the spider's web may provide a more compelling framework. The web or network, the introduction suggests, better reflects the contingencies and collaborations of authorship, making, and reception and coincides in productive ways with recent sociological and anthropological work on the study of ‘stuff’. The introduction closes by briefly describing the chapters which follow, urging the need to foreground women's textual labours and to rethink the sex/gender of the text.Less

The book aims to show that bibliography is not a safe positivist redoubt resistant to the onslaughts of post-structuralism, culture criticism, and so on, but that the gates are already open and the traffic two-way. It is the author's contention that only by seeing the field whole can one begin to perceive the theory that is embedded in practice, those generally unacknowledged principles that drive both editorial and critical decisions. Lastly, the book decodes the symptoms present in this cumulative history and interrogates the practices so that they may reveal their theories. Throughout, the book maintains that all practice, even that which asserts its empirical independence from theory, is, in fact, empowered by a theory or theories: theories of the text.Less
