Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid- to late-1930s, while he was a student at the Gregorian University in Rome, Bernard Lonergan wrote a series of eight essays on the philosophy and theology of history. These essays foreshadow a number of the major themes in his life’s work. The significance of these essays is enormous, not only for an understanding of the later trajectory of Lonergan’s own work but also for the development of a contemporary systematic theology. In an important entry from 1965 in his archival papers, Lonergan wrote that the "mediated object" of systematics is Geschichte or the history that is lived and written about. In the same entry, he stated that the "doctrines" that this systematic theology would attempt to understand are focused on "redemption." The seeds of such a theology are planted in the current volume, where the formulae that are so pronounced in his later work first appear. Students of Lonergan’s work will find their understanding of his philosophy profoundly affected by the essays in this volume.

Download or read book The Birth of the Archive written by Markus Friedrich and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2018-02-26 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Birth of the Archive traces the history of archives from their emergence in the Late Middle Ages through the Early Modern Period, and vividly shows how archives permeated and fundamentally changed European culture. Archives were compiled and maintained by peasants and kings, merchants and churchmen, and conceptions of archives were as diverse as those who used them. The complex, demanding job of the archivist was just as variable: archivists might serve as custodians, record-keepers, librarians, legal experts, historians, scholars, researchers, public officials, or some combination thereof; navigating archives was often far from straightforward. The shift of archival storage from haphazard collections of papers to the methodically organized institutionalized holdings of the nineteenth century was a gradual, nonlinear process. Friedrich provides an essential background to the history of archives over the centuries and enriches the story of their evolution with chapters on key sociocultural aspects of European archival culture. He discusses their meaning and symbolism in European thought, early modern conceptions of the archive’s function, and questions of access and usability. Exploring the close, often vexed relationship between archives and political power, Friedrich illustrates the vulnerability of archives to political upheaval and war. He concludes with an introspective look at how historians used their knowledge of and work with archives to create distinct representations of themselves and their craft. The Birth of the Archive engages with scholarship in political history, the history of mentalities, conceptions of space, historiography, and the history of everyday life in early modern Europe. It has much to offer for specialists and scholars, while the jargon-free prose of this translation is also accessible to the general reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians generally recognise E.A. Preobrazhensky as the most famous Soviet economist of the 1920s. English-language readers know him best as author of The New Economics and co-author (with N.I. Bukharin ) of The ABC of Communism. The documents in this volume, many newly discovered and almost all translated into English for the first time, reveal a Preobrazhensky previously unknown, whose interests ranged far beyond economics to include not only party debates and issues affecting the lives of workers and peasants, but also philosophy, world events, and Russian history, culture and politics. Including moments of triumph and tragedy, they tell an intimate story of political awakening and of commitment to socialist revolution as the path to human dignity.

Book excerpt: "This Supplement builds on a burgeoning body of research that approaches the archive not merely as the object, but also as the subject of enquiry. It explores the phenomenon of record keeping in the early modern period in the context of signifi cant ecclesiastical, political, intellectual and cultural developments that served as a stimulus to it: state formation, religious reformation, and economic transformation; the advent of the mechanical press, the spread of educational opportunity, and the expansion of literacy; changing epistemological conventions, shifting attitudes towards history and memory, and new modes of self-representation. Focusing attention on the impulses behind the surge in public and private documentation in Europe between 1500 and 1800, the contributors to this volume place the processes by which individual, collective and institutional records were created, compiled, authorised, and used under the microscope. They examine the activities of curators and scribes, analyse the issues of credibility and authenticity to which their endeavours gave rise, and evaluate the role of textual, pictorial, material and fi nancial records in managing knowledge and giving expression to senses of identity. Stretching traditional, technical defi nitions of the record and archive, they investigate how writing and document-making of various kinds was shaped by dynamic interactions between ordinary people and by the politics of everyday life. They also illuminate the multiple ways in which archives mediate and construct the past, preserving some traces of it for posterity while consigning others to oblivion."--

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Descriptive Catalogue of the Documents: Relating to the History of the United States in the Papeles Procedentes De Cuba, Deposited in the Archivo General De Indias at Seville To an organized and endowed institution which approaches the task of exploiting foreign archives for purposes of American history, it is natural to begin with that process which is most fundamental, most extensive in scope, simplest, serviceable to the greatest number and variety of investigators. Therefore this Department of Historical Research undertook, first, to go the rounds of the great national archives of Europe, and of Canada and Mexico, sending qualified scholars to each to make summary surveys of what it contains of unprinted material for the history of America, or of the United States, and publishing the results in volumes the scale of which was roughly proportioned to the amount or importance of the material found in each repository. Thus, four large volumes, prepared by Professor Charles M. Andrews, Dr. Charles O. Paullin, Professor Frederic L. Paxson, and Dr. Frances G. Davenport, have exhibited to the American student, in brief but comprehensive survey, the manuscript treasures, for American history, of the archives of London. Two or three volumes on those of Paris are under preparation by Mr. Waldo G. Leland. Those of Germany have been treated, in a substantial volume, by Professor Marion D. Learned, those of Switzerland and Austria by Professor Albert B. Faust, those of Rome and other Italian capitals by Professor Carl R. Fish, those of Russia by Professor Frank A. Golder, those of Canada by Mr. David W. Parker, those of Mexico by Professor Herbert E. Bolton, those of Cuba by Mr. Luis M. Perez. A thorough examination of those of the Netherlands had been begun when the present great war opened; and some preparations have been made for the examination of those of the Scandinavian countries, Scotland, Ireland, and the West Indies. If Spain be added to this list, it will be seen that summary guides to American materials in at least the national or central archives have been published or undertaken in the case of nearly all those foreign countries whose history to any important extent touches that of North America, certainly of all those to which any parts of North America stood in a colonial relation, and which are therefore in an archival sense motherlands of its history. In the process of "first aid" we have in a dozen years nearly made the circuit, and have produced a series of volumes which, whatever the imperfections resulting from preparation in so short a period of time, have at any rate "served the present age" by making known to the existing generation of American historical scholars not less than a hundred thousand documents in foreign archives not hitherto known to their studies. It may fairly be thought appropriate and seasonable to turn now to the exploitation, on a larger scale and by a different method, of some outstanding portions of the mass. That for this fuller and minuter treatment, after some method falling under the second of the processes described above, choice should be made of some body of papers in the archives of Spain, is due to several reasons.

Download or read book Archival Silences written by Michael Moss and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-10 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archival Silences demonstrates emphatically that archival absences exist all over the globe. The book questions whether benign ‘silence’ is an appropriate label for the variety of destructions, concealment and absences that can be identified within archival collections. Including contributions from archivists and scholars working around the world, this truly international collection examines archives in Australia, Brazil, Denmark, England, India, Iceland, Jamaica, Malawi, The Philippines, Scotland, Turkey and the United States. Making a clear link between autocratic regimes and the failure to record often horrendous crimes against humanity, the volume demonstrates that the failure of governments to create records, or to allow access to records, appears to be universal. Arguing that this helps to establish a hegemonic narrative that excludes the ‘other’, this book showcases the actions historians and archivists have taken to ensure that gaps in archives are filled. Yet the book also claims that silences in archives are inevitable and argues not only that recordkeeping should be mandated by international courts and bodies, but that we need to develop other ways of reading archives broadly conceived to compensate for absences. Archival Silences addresses fundamental issues of access to the written record around the world. It is directed at those with a concern for social justice, particularly scholars and students of archival studies, history, sociology, international relations, international law, business administration and information science.
