| | |  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Provençal literature - OriginIt was in the 11th century, and at several places in the extensive territory whose limits have been described in the foregoing account of the Provençal language, that Provençal literature first made its appearance. It took poetic form; and its oldest monuments show a relative perfection and a variety from which it may be concluded that poetry had already received a considerable development. The oldest poetic text, of which the date and origin are not surely determined, is said to be a Provençal burden (Fr. refrain) attached to a La ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Tokugawa Ietsugu - The Early Years of Shogun Ietsugu 1713-1715Since Shogun Ietsugu was still a toddler and not old or able enough to rule, he, like his father, was put under the protection and advice of Confucian scholar Arai Hakuseki. Two problems were addressed during Ietsugu's reign: currency reform and foreign trade in Kyushu. Ietsugu did not take much care of the country's matters - his advisors, namely Arai Hakuseki, addressed them.
In 1713, prices were rising. Thus, after various proposals (most after the death of Ienobu) submitted to Shogun Ietsugu and Hakuseki, it was decided that a new ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Isaac Newton's later life - FluxionsUp to the time of the publication of the Principia in 1687 the method of fluxions which had been invented by Newton, and had been of great assistance to him in his mathematical investigations, was still, except to Newton and his friends, a secret. One of the most important rules of the method forms the second lemma of the second book of the Principia. Though this new and powerful method was of great help to Newton in his work, he did not exhibit it in the results. He was aware that the well known geometrical methods of the anci ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Russian history 1682-1796 - Peter the Great and the Russian EmpirePeter I, a child of the second marriage of Tsar Aleksey, was at first relegated to the political background, as various court factions struggled to control the throne. Aleksey was succeeded by his son from his first marriage, Feodor III, a sickly boy who died in 1682. Peter then was made co-tsar with his half brother, Ivan V, but Peter's half sister, Sofia, held the real power. She ruled as regent while the young Peter was allowed to play war games with his friends and to roam in Moscow's foreign quarters. These early experiences instilled i ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Roger Elliott - Early lifeRoger Elliott was born, probably in the Tangier Garrison in Morocco, to George Elliott (CIR 1636 - 1668, the Chirurgeon to the Garrison) and his wife Catherine Maxwell (CIR 1638 - 1709). It is likely that George Elliott was the illegitimate son of Richard Eliot, the wayward second son of Sir John Eliot (1592 - 1632).
Roger's father, George Elliott, died in 1668 and his widowed mother remarried on February 22, 1670 to Robert Spotswood (September 17, 1637 - 1680, the replacement Chirurgeon at the Garrison), and thirdly to Rev Dr George ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Colley Cibber - Cibber as playwrightCibber's comedies Love's Last Shift (1696) and The Careless Husband (1704) are early heralds of a massive shift in audience taste, away from the intellectualism and sexual frankness of Restoration comedy and towards the conservative certainties and gender role backlash of exemplary or sentimental comedy. In particular, Love's Last Shift illustrates Cibber's opportunism at a moment in time before the change was assured: fearless of self-contradiction, he puts something for everybody into his first play, com ...

|  |  |  | 1709: Encyclopedia II - Industrial Revolution - CausesThe causes of the Industrial Revolution were complex and remain a topic for debate, with some historians seeing the Revolution as an outgrowth of social and institutional changes wrought by the end of feudalism in Great Britain after the English Civil War in the 17th century. The Enclosure movement and the British Agricultural Revolution made food production more efficient and less labour-intensive, forcing the surplus population who could no longer find employment in agriculture into cottage industry, such as weaving, and in the longer term ...

Even though the "Restoration drama" unit taught to college students is likely to be telescoped in a way that makes the plays all sound contemporary, scholars now have a strong sense of the rapid evolution of English drama over these forty years and of its social and political causes.
