The Hardwicke Circle and the Royal Society, 1740–1766
Description
Studies the reading habits of a group of historians and science administrators known as the Hardwicke Circle. The research is based on an analysis of the reading recorded in the 'Weekly Letter', an unpublished private correspondence written from 1741 to 1766 between Thomas Birch and Philip Yorke, later second earl of Hardwicke.
