FÉVRIER/FEBRUARY 2000

The 14th Annual DeBartolo Conference on 18th-Century Studies, sponsored by the University of South Florida, will meet in Tampa on Feb. 17-19, 2000.

Topic: "Eighteenth-Century Studies: Past and Future"

Speakers: Howard Weinbrot (U of Wisconsin), Stuart Sherman (Fordham U), and Pat Rogers (U of South Florida).

As we verge on a new century, we invite papers that look retrospectively and prospectively at the field of 18th-century studies, identifying trends in the past and charting courses for the future. Papers might assess how the rise of historicism, the growth of interdisciplinarity, or the rapprochement with Romantic Era studies have shaped the field in recent years; or they might consider what effects may follow from the publication of new anthologies or the recovery of neglected texts. Trends might be traced through particular territories in the field--such as American, British, or Continental studies--or they might be treated comparatively.

We also welcome examination of the fates of individual figures from the period--both those with seemingly bright futures as objects of study and those who have faded or soon may fade from view. Additionally, we welcome analyses of the concepts of past and future as they are represented in the literature, art, music, philosophy, or political theory of the "long" 18th century.

JUILLET/JULY 2000

Historicizing the Ocean, c. 1500 - c. 1900

An interdisciplinary conference to be held at the University of Greifswald, Germany

20-23 July, 2000

The aim of this international conference is to explore material and methodological sea changes in the cultural history of oceans, ships, and mariners. Contemporary debates about globalization, transculturation, transnationality, contact zones, the multiplicity and non-synchronicity of cultures and histories invite us to regard the ocean as a historical location whose transformative power is not merely psychological or metaphorical. The sea, whether as the Black Atlantic, the quasi-arcadian Pacific, or the mediterranean omphalos, has been the site of radical changes in human lives and national histories. It has been crossed by vessels of discovery, by immigrant ships, slave ships, pirates, merchant ships, warships, and notorious pleasure steamers, many of which have left their mark on the bottom of the sea but which - more importantly - have decisively shaped human history.

We invite papers that emphasize this transformative historical function of ships, their crews and passengers, and of the ocean itself. We encourage submissions from scholars of various disciplines (both "before" and "behind the mast") who seek to combine, in an interdisciplinary fashion, various aspects of the general theme. Topics could include (but are by no means limited to) the links (and/ or contradictions) between the material and metaphorical uses of ships and oceans; the sea as a historical site of cultural confrontations and displacements, of different forms of travel, of voyages of exploration and of colonial conquest; the representational functions of ships and the sea in literature, culture, and science; the cartography and cultural geography of maritime spaces; the diverse communities of seafarers; etc. Despite the temporal boundaries expressed in the conference title, themes may include 20th century historical imagination in film and literature; and we are particularly interested in papers that offer a gender-critical view of the subject matter (e.g. the feminization of ships, homosociality on shipboard, female tars, etc.).

The conference, jointly organized by the universities of Greifswald and Dortmund, will be hosted by Greifswald. Located at the Baltic Sea near the Polish border, this small and ancient Hanse town and former haunt of the famous pirate Klaus Stoertebecker offers a fascinating maritime atmosphere.

Key note speakers will include Peter Hulme, Greg Dening, Marcus Rediker, and Susan Bassnett. Proposals are welcome from anyone interested in the topic, from established academics to research students. Please send abstracts of no more than 300 words, by 30 September 1999, to either:

The Second International Reid Symposium

"Philosophy in Scotland then and now"

University of Aberdeen, Scotland

10-12 July 2000

From the medieval period onward, the contribution of Scots authors to philosophy has been considerable. Thinkers of the calibre of Duns Scotus (1266-1308) and John Mair (c. 1467-1550) were followed by the flourishing of philosophy teaching in Scotland's four ancient universities. The "golden era" of philosophy in Scotland, the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, stirred debates which continued in the nineteenth century and remain important for many issues of contemporary philosophical discussion.

Proposals (max. 200 words) for papers on the tradition of philosophy in Scotland and its relevance for contemporary philosophical enquiry should be sent by 1 Feb. 2000 to:

Dr. M. Rosa Antognazza, Director
The Reid Project
Department of Philosophy

Twenty-seventh Annual Hume Society Conference

July 23-29, 2000

College of William and Mary Williamsburg, Virginia (USA) Conference Co-Directors: Dorothy Coleman (College of William and Mary, USA); James Dye (Northern Illinois University, USA); Tito Magri (University of Rome, Italy); Adam Potkay (College of William and Mary, USA).

The Hume Society is pleased to announce a call for papers for its twenty-seventh annual conference, to be held July 23-29, 2000 in Williamsburg, Virginia (USA). The title of the conference is a "A Feast of Reason," Hume's expression for peaceable conversation among friends with whom he can "try the justness of every reflection, whether gay or serious, that may occur." In keeping with the spirit of the feast, papers on any aspect of Hume's life and works will be considered for the program. However, the conference directors especially welcome submissions on Hume's views concerning the relation between reason and one of the following topics: Rhetoric, Representations, Religion, and Revolution.

The Hume Society has set aside up to $1000 for the support of graduate students reading papers. These funds will be given at the discretion of the conference co-directors to those whose papers are accepted through the normal refereeing process. Papers should be no longer than thirty minutes in reading length, with self-references deleted for blind reviewing; the author's name should appear only on a front cover sheet. Papers may be in English, French, or German, but an abstract in English of up to 150 words is required for all papers. Submissions must be postmarked by November 1, 1999. Send triplicate copies of both abstracts and papers to:

Professor Mikael M. Karlsson
Executive Secretary-Treasurer of the Hume Society
University of Iceland
Main Building IS-101
Reykjavik, Iceland.

Graduate Student Awards, University of Exeter

The University of Exeter Department of French (GB) is offering four awards for study towards a PhD. Although no preference is stated for these awards we would very much welcome applications in areas other than the 20th century. The awards are of two kinds: fees (at UK/EU rates) plus living allowance (equivalent of the British Academy/AHRB rates), or graduate teaching assistantships--same as above but including a teaching requirement.

I'd be grateful if users of this Bulletin would point any suitable candidates in my direction. Speaking personally, we'd like to see some good applications for the eighteenth century. For information contact:

Using the Bibliothèque Nationale de France

My advice to researchers planning to use the BNF (site Francois Mitterrand) in 1999 is to avoid doing so, if possible. If you have to use it, as I did during the month of March, put off doing so as long as possible; maybe things will improve, though I advise patience and resignation rather than optimism. If you are able-bodied, have lots of time and need few books, much of what follows may probably be ignored.

Getting there is no problem. The library is the terminus of a new driverless subway line that runs from Madeleine via Concorde, Pyramides, Chatelet, Gare de Lyon, etc. (Pyramides is the station for the old Richelieu BN, where manuscripts, estampes, medailles, music, etc., have remained. Readers' cards can also be obtained there, probably faster, and books can reportedly be ordered there for the new library.) The Metro station is about 200 yards away. Two buses drop you a lot nearer--the 62, which runs from the Porte de Saint-Cloud about half a mile inside the southern peripherique; and the 89, which runs from Malakoff via Vaugirard, Montparnasse, Luxembourg, Maubert-Mutualite and Gare d'Austerlitz. I noticed two hotels near the subway station, the Facotel and Holiday Inn Garden Hotel.

The immediate area of the library is one of railway lines and warehouses, with a couple of modern apartment buildings, which include a sandwich shop but nowhere to buy hot food or alcohol. The Seine runs about 100 yards to the north, but there are few benches to sit and eat a sandwich. There is an institutional cafeteria in the building with plastic-wrapped sandwiches, cans of beer and chairs whose seats are about a foot off the ground.

Architecturally, the exterior is unlovely, unwelcoming and dangerous. Four tall glass towers with beige sunshades, allegedly symbolizing open books, mark the corners of a rectangular structure. The rest of the library lies under a wooden esplanade which readers enter from the top, after scaling numerous steps. The entrance is hard to find; do not make the mistake at opening time of following library staff who often enter the towers to which readers have no access. The wooden steps to the "roof" are quite slippery when wet, unless you have special soles. The Chroniques de la BNF (no. 6, p. 7) states: "On ne compte plus les interventions des pompiers pour des chutes sur les immenses emmarchements, les glissades sur l'esplanade, et les blessures au front des personnes de plus de 1,70 qui s'aventurent dans les vestiaires ou les plafonds son trop bas." Having scaled these steps and found the unmajestic entrance, you then take an escalator all the way down again into the heart of the building.

The inside, once you are past the metallic Alphaville interior escalators and antechambers, is attractive, with lots of wood and red carpets and spacious reading rooms. There is a garden with tall pines and birches, anchored with long wires, to which readers have no access.

Getting a new computerized ticket--I was warned 18 months ago that my new ticket would not be renewable--took me fifty-five minutes. Though I had rented my apartment by the month and bought a monthly carte orange, I could not get a monthly reader's ticket and had to buy a yearly one at a cost of 300 francs--not the 200 specified in the latest brochure. (The Archives nationales, which by the way are closed this summer to instal the air-conditioning for which they closed last summer, renewed my ticket in one minute at a cost of 50 francs.) The ticket must be used a zillion times daily. The only place you can go without it is the cafeteria and the toilet. There are rumoured to be oubliettes in the building for readers who can't get out because they've lost their ticket.

Unlike the old Richelieu, which had one large salle des imprimes, the new Mitterrand has several, each one for a different subject, plus the Reserve and the bibliography room. Movement from one room to another is unrestricted--you do not need to use your card each time you enter a room, as at the Archives nationales. The usuels are much more numerous than before, but you may find that the ones you are accustomed to using are a couple of hundred yards apart. There is no periodical or microfilm room.

The library is open from 9 to 8 Tuesday to Saturday. Mondays are apparently used for making technical improvements. Unfortunately, some five months after the official opening, technical problems have made it impossible to get a book the same day. Indeed, a book must be ordered before 2 p.m. to be available for 9 a.m. the next day. This means that before ordering books (for first-time readers, before even entering the library proper), you must reserve a seat. Unless you reserve well in advance, you may find that all the seats in your preferred room are booked. Theoretically, your seat reservation and your book orders will be cancelled if you arrive an hour late, though this did not happen to me on the one occasion when I arrived 62 minutes late. (A watchful librarian actually checked with me to see if I had encountered any problems.) On the other hand, I once arrived two hours before my 2 a.m. reservation and was refused admission both by the computerized gate and by the bevy of staff in its vicinity, as only half an hour's grace is given. I suggested that my reserved seat be cancelled and the same seat rebooked, but was assured that this would necessarily result in all my book reservations being automatically cancelled. The experience was especially grotesque, since the library is always close to half empty, but it was apparently quite unthinkable to let me roam seatless in the library until my official seat, doubtless vacant anyway, became officially free.

The maximum number of volumes (sic--volumes, not books) per day is eight. This excludes microfilms (eight a day) and Reserve books (five a day).

Clearly, working at the BNF requires planning a la Clausewitz. Clearly, too, it is not possible to do more than a morning's work there, if, like me, you do not read books there, but consult them for occasional information.

The computers are numerous and relatively easy to use, but they are neither fast nor sophisticated. Here are five examples of what I mean. 1) It can take up to four minutes to reserve a seat, even with a librarian at the controls. 2) Don't think that you can easily find a book by knowing just the author's surname and a keyword of the title (e.g. Wilson, Diderot), as there is no author plus title facility. On ne peut saisir plus d'un critere a la fois. 3) You can be given a call-number (cote) by the omputer, then when you order the book, be told, also by the computer, that the call-number does not exist. (Usually, this means that you drop the 8o at the start of the call-number.) 4) You will often be told by the computer that a book is incommunicable, though no reason is ever given. (Usually, it is because the book has been microfilmed and you are expected to order the microfilm. The call-number may be the same, preceded by the word MICROFILM, but it may be different.) 5) Books, which have to be fetched from and returned to the desk in one's reading room, are checked in and out using a bar-code system. The process is incredibly slow.

Periodicals and microfilms (by which I mean all microforms) are theoretically available to you in the room where you have your seat, but in practice microfilms can present problems. Not all microfilms can be delivered to your room, and not all rooms are equipped with microfilm readers. It once took me two hours, four librarians, one phone call and a grand tour of the building before I finally found two microfiches in Salle J (Haut-de-Jardin), where I filled in an old paper order-form and got my microfiches in two minutes. As a good deal of walking and microfilm seat-booking is needed in the new system, it would be better to have all the microfilms in one place where some expertise could be concentrated.

With but one exception, I found the staff pleasant, helpful, apologetic and sympathetic. They agree that the library is an expensive disaster despite all the exciting publicity brochures. Their input into designing the system was apparently minimal. As one of them put it: "Non seulement on ne nous a pas consultes, on nous a demande de nous taire." The library assistants, many newly hired and inadequately trained, are often as bewildered as new readers. One assured me that a book I had ordered had not arrived, but it turned out that she did not know how to look beyond the first screen where my first five books were displayed.

For older readers, it is no doubt a strain to adapt to new routines--using the computer, having to relearn the location of one's favourite usuels--but the investment of effort and patience is worthwhile, since the computer is a splendid research tool. Getting from the street to the bibliography room and back again involves walking close to 1000 yards, as well as negotiating many steps and a few huge metal doors (push the first, pull the second). Daily readers can certainly cancel their subscriptions to gymnasia.

The library is accessible to readers in wheelchairs, but does not seem to have been designed from the outset with the problems of the handicapped clearly in mind. If one starts with the assumption that the handicapped should enter the library and use the facilities in much the same way as everybody else, the building and its facilities are certainly misconceived. For example, each reading room is entered by a flight of six steps, in the middle of which is a small elevator, which looks like an afterthought. Not a ramp to be seen. Chairs and doors must present huge problems.

I did not attempt to photocopy anything, but I did try to get my out-of-date photocopy tickets reimbursed in cash, which is what I paid for them. During the aforementioned heel-cooling, I even went to see the agent comptable, who treated me with great courtesy but was amused by my request for cash and insisted on sending a draft to my bank in answer to a written request. So if you have old tickets, send them to the Agent comptable, 11, quai Francois Mauriac, Tour T2, Niveau 5, before the threatened statute of limitations is introduced!

The cost of building this monument must have been enormous. Maintaining it must also be expensive, since large numbers of new staff have had to be hired. I shudder to think what will happen when the budget is reduced.

In conclusion, I consider that the new library has many obvious advantages over the old, notably its seating capacity. Questions such as access for the handicapped and the lighting can be debated. What is certain is that, in terms of efficiency (i.e. getting large quantities of books, periodicals and microfilms into my hands in speedy fashion), it is vastly inferior at the moment to its nineteenth-century predecesor. Vive le progres. Some problems will doubtless be eliminated in time, but I do

not expect the new library's efficiency, as defined above, ever to be an improvement over that of the old.

Labyrinthe

Labyrinthe is a new review journal published by Maisonneuve et Larose, a french academic editor. The review publishes studies written by young researchers (up to Ph.D included) on any subject. Labyrinthe is interdisciplinary, and we are particularly interested in collectively-written articles. Basically the review is a French-speaking one, but translation of foreign contributions is certainly possible.

LE XVIIIe SIÈCLE SUR INTERNET / EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY STUDIES AND THE INTERNET

C18 Bibliographies On-line

I'd like to announce a new project--c18 Bibliographies On-Line, a collection of selective annotated bibliographies on eighteenth-century figures, freely available over the Web, and carried out under the aegis of c18. The project is at last on-line; either of the followig URLs will work (the first is in the UK, the second in the USA):

<http://c18.net/biblio/>

<http://www.c18.rutgers.edu/biblio/>

Each bibliography lists the standard scholarly editions, bibliographies, biographies, journals, reference works, and major works of criticism for an author. They're advertised as "selective": the degree of coverage will range from nearly comprehensive for minor figures through extremely selective for major writers like Johnson, Jefferson, Voltaire, and Goethe. The goal is always to direct novices to the essential starting points--the reputable editions, the biographies worth reading, and the critical works that can't be ignored. I've commissioned bibliographies from people who've done extended research in the field, and can therefore speak with some authority. The bibliographies will be kept up to date, being udpated whenever necessary (and reviewed at least annually).

The first dozen bibliographies are now available on-line: Joanna Baillie, by Ken A. Bugajski; Hugh Blair, by Richard B. Sher; Frances Burney, by Barbara Darby; Adam Ferguson, by Richard B. Sher; Anne Finch, Countess of Winchilsea, by Charles H. Hinnant; David Hume, by Adam Potkay; Samuel Johnson, by Jack Lynch; James Macpherson and Ossian, by Richard B. Sher; Bernard Mandeville, by Charles W. A. Prior; George Psalmanazar, by Jack Lynch; Thomas Reid, by Martino Squillante; William Robertson, by Jeffrey Smitten.

Many more will be added over the coming months. The following authors have already been spoken for: Aubin; Baillie; Barbauld; Barker; Beckford; Behn; Bonnet; Boswell; Frances Brooke; Burke; Frances Burney; Burns; Charriere; Chatterton; Chudleigh; Churchill; Condorcet; Constant; Crebillon; D'Alembert; Defoe; Diderot; Ferguson; Finch; Gay; Gibbon; Grimm; Haywood; Aaron Hill; Hume; Inchbald; Jefferson; Johnson; Kames; Le Franc de Pompignan; Leapor; Sophia Lee; Linnaeus; Logan; Macpherson; Meister; Monboddo; Montagu; Pope; Prevost; Psalmanazar; Radcliffe; Reeve; Robertson; Rousseau; Sheridan; Smart; Adam Smith; Charlotte Smith; Stael; Stair; Sterne; Swift; Voltaire; Horace Walpole; Wolcot.

I'm always looking for new contributors, and welcome volunteers who can prepare bibliographies on other figures from the long eighteenth century. As it stands, the project is heavy on British literature--an emphasis that reflects my own areas of knowledge and interest. This is a limitation, though, not part of the scope of the project; I hope to right the balance, adding more figures from beyond Britain, as well as some who aren't traditionally discussed in literature departments. If anyone is working on figures beyond my BritLit ken--Vico, Buffon, Mozart, Watteau, Herder--or can suggest other experts whose arms might be twisted, I'll be grateful to hear from you. Comments are welcome at biblio@c18.org.

Do drop me a line if you'd like to volunteer for an unclaimed author, or have other questions or suggestions. And please forward this message as appropriate.

The editors of Romantic Circles and Romantic Praxis are pleased to announce a new volume of essays entitled Romanticism and the Law, edited by Michael Macovski. This hypertext volume, which grew out of a 1997 MLA session on Romanticism and legal discourse, features Susan Eilenberg on the eighteenth-century rhetoric of copyright and intellectual property, Margaret Russett on the connections between landed property, intellectual property, and John Clare's plagiarized poetics, Michael Scrivener on Godwin, Thelwall, and Robert Wedderburn and the discourse of treason, sedition, and blasphemy, and Kathryn Temple on connections between Samuel Richardson's work and Heliodorus's The Ethiopian, read against Richardson's outrage about Irish book piracy. In his introduction, Michael Macovski makes explicit how these essays explore the linkages between ideas of intellectual property and literary legality across a diverse range of genres.

A link for this new volume can be found on the main Romantic Circles page at <http://www.rc.umd.edu>

or on the main Romantic Praxis page: <http://www.rc.umd.edu/praxis>.

Travel Literature on the Net

Since December 20, 1998 the Centre de recherche sur la littérature des voyages has been operating a web server with technical support from IMAC (Institut Image et Communication, Paris II). Our provisional address is <http://195.114.67.46/crlv>. At present the following resources are available on our site: 1) Annual List of members, with recent publications. This list is searchable by research subjects; 2) The Bibliographie de la littérature de voyage en langue française (BLVF) includes primary sources, both printed and manuscript, and is searchable by various criteria. The site is open to anyone for consultation. Please enter username VISITEUR and password VISITEUR.

This is an interactive database. You may make your own contribution, but you will need a password. This can be obtained from François Moureau (E-mail: Francois.moureau@paris4.sorbonne.fr). Your responses and advice will be most welcome to us.

The William Blake Archive

The William Blake Archive <http://www.iath.virginia.edu/blake> is pleased to announce the publication of new electronic editions for two works in Blake's emblem series: For Children: The Gates of Paradise and the revised and augmented version For the Sexes: The Gates of Paradise. Through a numbered series of intaglio plates with inscriptions ranging from single words to brief aphorisms, Blake puts the course of human life from birth to death in psychological perspective. Some of the emblems form narrative sequences; others exemplify mental states and their reification in the external world. Blake etched in intaglio the eighteen plates of For Children in 1793 and printed all extant copies (A-E) in the same year. The copy published in the archive is copy D, from the Rosenwald Collection, Library of Congress.

In about 1820, Blake revised For Children: The Gates of Paradise, giving the work a new title, For the Sexes: The Gates of Paradise, reworking the design plates at least twice, and adding three new text plates at the end (19-21). Plates 19-20 contain brief interpretive statements keyed by number to the preceding design plates. The final plate is addressed to Satan as the "God of This [fallen] World." Copies A and B were probably printed c. 1820. Copies Cand D, plus a large group of impressions never collated into complete copies by Blake but now divided into what are designated as copies J-N, date from c. 1825. Copies E-I are probably posthumous. We now publish copy D, from the collection of the Pierpont Morgan Library, New York.

Both electronic editions have newly edited SGML-encoded texts and new images scanned and color-corrected from first-generation 4x5" transparencies; they are each fully searchable for both text and images and supported by the Inote and ImageSizer applications described in our previous updates. With the publication of these two titles, the archive now contains 33 copies of 18 separate books, including at least one copy of every one of Blake's works in illuminated printing except the 100 plates of Jerusalem (forthcoming).

Also, we are pleased to announce that a tour of the archive is now available on-line. Through a sequence of several dozen graphical screenshots linked to narrative commentary, the tour introduces users to the basic organization and structure of the archive, the features of its interface, its search options, and the function of the Inote and ImageSizer applications. The tour is located in the "About the Archive" wing of the site. Available as the first link off our main table of contents page at the URL above, the "About the Archive" materials include, in addition to the tour, a statement of editorial principles and methodology, a frequently asked questions list, a technical summary, and an updated version of the article-length plan of the archive detailing our intentions with regard to Blake's non-illuminated works--and more. We hope that the tour, together with these other materials, will prove valuable both to our own growing user community and to scholars interested in the theory and practice of electronic editing more generally.

BOURSES / SCHOLARSHIPS

The University of Exeter Department of French (GB) is offering 4 awards for study towards a PhD. Although no preference is stated for these awards we would very much welcome applications in areas other than the 20th century. The awards are of two kinds: fees (at UK/EU rates) plus living allowance (equivalent of the British Academy/AHRB rates), or graduate teaching assistantships - same as above but including a teaching requirement. I'd be grateful if users of this list would point any suitable candidates in my direction. Naturally, speaking personally, we'd like to see some good applications for the eighteenth century.

APPEL DE TEXTES / CALL FOR PAPERS

Pedagogical Project on Early Modern Women's Writings

We are inviting instructors and graduate students to participate in the creation of a pedagogical packet, consisting of title pages, frontispieces, prefaces, engravings, letters, etc., for use in undergraduate or graduate courses on or dealing with early modern women writers. This packet would provide students with an opportunity to view the history of the female-authored text by giving them access to facsimiles of manuscript pages and of title pages, frontispieces, etc. taken from original editions.

We propose to organize the packet by creating three main sections representing the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. Within each section, we would organize the materials accordingly: book covers/title pages, frontispieces, prefaces/prologues, pages of text (from poems, plays, prose works, pamphlets, and manuscripts), engravings, epilogues, conclusions, postscripts.

Please send us photocopies of text pages which can eventually be computer-scanned; and include a brief commentary of 300-500 words, in which you annotate the image or text by identifying its source (provide all

bibliographic information), explaining its significance, and listing relevant secondary criticism. Accuracy of the commentaries will be checked with an informal peer

review by participants in the project. The packet will include an introduction and will be submitted for publication. It will be made available to all participants and any one interested in receiving a copy. We would also like to have overheads made of all the images for use in the classroom.

Please send your materials by September 1999 to:

Helen Ostovich
Dept. of English
McMaster University
Hamilton (Ontario)
Canada L8S 4K1

or to Elizabeth Sauer
Dept. of English
Brock University

Nouvelle revue : Labyrinthe

What is Labyrinthe? It is published by Maisonneuve et Larose, a french academic editor. The review publishes studies written by young researchers (up to Ph.D included), whatever the matter they study. As a matter of fact, Labyrinthe is interdisciplinary : our objective is to publish collective articles, written by several authors who would have met thanks to the journal and to the association that is behind it. Basically the review is a French-speaking one, but translation of foreign contributions may easily be contemplated.

If you are interested, or think someone you know would be, please do not hesitate to contact me.
