the book and the archive in the History of science
Isis; an international review devoted to the history of science and its cultural influences, 2016Co-Authors: Elizabeth YaleAbstract:AbstractIn recent years, the History of Archives has opened up rich possibilities for understanding early modern science and medicine in material terms. Yet two strands of inquiry, vital to understanding the development of science and medicine as “paper knowledge,” have been left largely unpursued: the archiving of personal papers, as distinct from the formation of institutional Archives; and the ways in which printed books and archival papers functioned in relation to each other. This essay brings these two strands to the forefront, considering in particular books published posthumously from the notes and correspondence left behind by Nicholas Culpeper, a popular mid-seventeenth-century English vernacular medical author, and John Ray, naturalist and Fellow of the Royal Society. Culpeper’s and Ray’s cases illustrate, in particular, the central role of women in preserving, circulating, and certifying the authenticity of medical and scientific papers and of any books published posthumously from them.

appraisal based on organic functional analysis a case study in an electronic records environment
Records Management Journal, 2001Co-Authors: Cristina CarvalhoAbstract:This article is a shortened version of a Master’s dissertation for the Liverpool University Centre for Archive Studies. It deals with issues of appraisal. Such issues involve fundamental concepts on what records are, why they are kept, and their life cycle. The answers to these questions were sought and found in the History of Archives, and in the specialist literature. The theory and the methodology adopted were then applied to a case study of a recently established organisation in Lisbon, which has, at the core of its business, information in electronic format.
