Book excerpt: Like two great fellow-Scotsmen before him, David Hume and Adam Smith, John Ramsay McCulloch was a man who came to excel in many fields. More of a philosopher and less of a theoretician than the other two, he made up for this with great practical abilities, and was indeed, the first economist to earn his living by teaching and writing. He was one of the first professional teachers of economics and was appointed the first professor of political economy at London University. He was a distinguished editor of the Scotsman for a number of years, but his chief claim to journalistic fame lies in the many reviews he contributed to the Edinburgh Review from 1818 to 1837. In this long period, he preached the Ricardian doctrine with almost fanatical discipleship and did much to bring about the victory of the Ricardian view on his contemporaries. McCulloch's work on the general problems of economic theory and policy is that by which he is largely remembered today. Traditionally regarded as the most loyal and dogmatic of Ricardo's followers, recent examination of his writings has shown more clearly the Smithian flavour of many of his views, and the shifts in his opinions as he grew older.

Book excerpt: This thesis is concerned with re-establishing the significance of George McCulloch (1848-1907) as a collector of late Victorian art, as well as looking at the importance of his collection both in terms of its major themes, and as a reflection of contemporary culture at the time. George McCulloch was a wealthy Scottish collector who has largely been overlooked, possibly due to the decline in popularity of Victorian art in the early twentieth century, as well as the dispersal of his collection in 1913. McCulloch made his money through mining in Australia, before retiring to London and becoming one of the biggest buyers of contemporary British and Continental works in the London art market, in the last decade of the nineteenth century. Described by The Art Journal of 1907, as 'one of the greatest collectors of contemporary art England has ever seen', McCulloch had a policy of only buying works by artists born in his lifetime, and in a short period of about ten years amassed a collection of over four hundred works, by some of the most celebrated and successful artists of the period. McCulloch's collection included key works by artists of the Aesthetic Movement, such as Frederic Leighton, Edward Burne-Jones, Albert Moore and James McNeill Whistler, as well as numerous works by the Rustic Naturalist painters, Jules Bastien-Lepage, members of the Newlyn School of Painters, George Clausen and Henry Herbert La Thangue. Through the acquisition of a 1913 Christie's catalogue of McCulloch's Collection which recorded both the purchaser of the works and the prices realised at the auction, the loan of the Special Edition of The Art Journal 1909, and the analysis of journals, newspapers and catalogues of the period, relevant texts on Victorian Art, art institutions and auction houses, this thesis will seek to reposition McCulloch as an important collector of late-Victorian art. This discourse will look at several aspects of McCulloch's collection, such as the key themes of Aestheticism, Rustic Naturalism and Landscape, the history and 'path to fame' of many of the major works, and the sumptuous 'Palace of Art' that McCulloch built to showcase his collection.

Book excerpt: "This timely collection of speeches by David McCullough, the most honored historian in the United States--winner of two Pulitzer Prizes, two National Book Awards, and the Presidential Medal of Freedom, among many other honors--reminds us of fundamental American principles. Over the course of his distinguished career, David McCullough has spoken before Congress, the White House, colleges and universities, historical societies, and other esteemed institutions. Now, as many Americans engage in self-reflection following a bitter election campaign that has left the country divided, McCullough has collected some of his most important speeches in a brief volume that articulates important principles and characteristics that are particularly American..."--Jacket.
