Esmé Howard (1863-1939) was an influential British diplomat during the early 20th century. As a young man, he worked as private secretary to the British ambassador in Berlin and witnessed the forging of the recently unified Germany. During the 1900s, he held various diplomatic positions in Crete, Budapest, and Berne and between 1913 and 1919 he was posted to Stockholm and was mainly trusted with tackling blockade diplomacy during the First World War. The zenith of his career occurred between 1924 and 1930, when he was a successful British ambassador to the United States. Upon his retirement in 1930 he was elevated to the House of Lords for his work in Washington. This collection contains extensive material collected over the fascinating and fruitful life of Esmé Howard. This includes a plethora of personal correspondence with important figures, further correspondence, memorandum, and other material from his many diplomatic occupations, his personal diaries, and files documenting his personal estate. As such, the collection offers a compelling account of British diplomacy during and after the First World War.

Here is a unique collection of rare documents relating to the Japanese occupation of Korea, from the late nineteenth century up to 1945, representing a highly significant period in Korean history, and vital for a true understanding of many reflexes in the Koreas today. In 1876, Japan “opened” Korea to outside contact for the first time. What followed was a period of sparring with the Chinese over the right of influence in Korea, a rivalry which culminated in the Sino- Japanese war of 1894-95. Following victory, Japan steadily increased its presence and interference in Korean matters until the outright annexation of the country in 1910. Korea would remain a Japanese colony until the end of the Pacific War in 1945. Drawn from the holdings of the C.V. Starr East Asian Library at Columbia University, New York, the collection includes more than 62,000 pages in Japanese language, 18,000 pages of Western (in most cases English) early impressions of Korea, and Korean texts (16,000 pages).

Module 5: Correspondence: Domestic Life, Governance and Territorial Expansion

This collection provides a unique perspective on the complex geopolitical circumstances of India during the 18th century, and how the foundations of British colonialism were established through the activities and campaigns of the East India Company. Drawing from the personal and professional papers of two East India Company employees, Colonel Robert Clive and Brigadier-General John Carnac, the collection offers an insight into how the East India Company became increasingly influential after the weakening of the Mughal Empire during the 18th century.

Robert Clive was a British military commander and eventual Governor of Bengal. Through his political and military actions in India, he amassed vast personal wealth and played a key role in laying the foundations for British domination of India for the next few centuries. John Carnac served as Commander-in-Chief of the East India Company in India between 1760-1761, defeating the French supported forces of the Mughal Empire. He worked in tandem with Clive as they systematically expanded British influence on the subcontinent.

Of particular interest are events such as the pivotal Battle of Plassey in 1757, the ‘Black Hole of Calcutta’ incident, and the British military expedition against the Dutch in 1759. Together, the the papers enable researchers to study how the burgeoning commercial and political power of the East India Company turned into monolithic rule of the Indian subcontinent.

Coverage is from 1986 onward.

Religion, Reform, and Society examines the influence of both faith and skepticism on the shaping of many aspects of society—politics, law, economics, and social and radical reform movements. In the nineteenth century, the intellectual work of Comte, Marx, Weber, Darwin, Freud, and others unleashed secularizing impulses that gave rise to both new humanist religious projects and new faith-based social reform movements. The heightened interest in the perfection of man, the power of science, and the confidence in social progress also had an impact. Alongside Comte's positivist “religion of humanity,” utopian collectives, and settlement houses, there grew a new fascination with alternative spiritual and mystical practices.

The archive provides essential documentary materials that explore religious and philosophical movements in reaction to dramatic changes in culture and society wrought by the industrial revolution and modernity. Topics covered include positivism and anti-positivism, freethinking, the cooperative movement, alternative Christianities, and the application of the social principles of Christianity to everyday life by a variety of denominations.

The collection is of immense value to researchers of religious history, chronicling social unrest in England as it pitched back and forth between the religious positions of its rulers: from the boy-king Edward VI's promotion of the Reformation, to Mary I's bloody reassertion of Catholicism and Elizabeth's loyalty to Protestantism and enduring suspicion of Catholic plots.

Part I: State Papers Domestic, Military and Naval and the Registers of the Privy Council - contains documents that provide evidence of the extent and nature of decisions taken by government and, more importantly, who was making those decisions. The records serve to illustrate the personal style of the secretaries of state who, with the chancellor of the Exchequer, controlled almost the entire life of the nation. Researchers can examine the different ways in which the three Hanover monarchs conducted the business of monarchy and also develop perspectives on the king’s changing role in political and administrative history.

Part II: State Papers Foreign- Low Countries and Germany - expands on the domestic papers in Part I and presents the first section of the foreign papers during the reigns of George I, George II, and George III until 1782 when the State Papers series ends. The collection turns its lens on the eighteenth-century world beyond England, documenting the relationship of the Hanoverian reign with Flanders, Holland, and Germany, with particular focus on European powers such as the Holy Roman Empire and German states and towns.

Part III: State Papers Foreign: Western Europe - includes the State Papers series relating to France, Dunkirk, Portugal, Spain, Malta, the Italian States and Rome, Genoa, Tuscany, Venice, Savoy and Sardinia, Sicily and Naples, as well as supplementary records of the Levant Company in Aleppo and the Aleppo consulate. It also includes the Royal Letters and Treaties series.

Part IV: State Papers Foreign: Scandinavia, Eastern Europe and Turkey [2018] - covers nations and events at the borders of Europe and European power, from Russia emerging as an imperial force in the North as Sweden’s power declined after the Great Northern War (1700-1721), to piracy and conflict in the Mediterranean, wars and treaties with the Ottoman Empire at the outer reaches of Russia and Austria, and the constant building up of armies and fleets to bolster status and secure territories. Discussion of colonial schemes and wars was a key part of the diplomatic chatter crossing eighteenth century Europe, particularly during the Seven Years’ War (1756-1763), when European machinations in the West Indies, the Americas and India had far-reaching consequences.

This collection consists of letters, diaries, and official reports dated between 1879 and 1920. The records relate to two viceroys who acted as representatives of the British monarch in India: Lord Curzon and the fourth Earl of Minto. The material relating to Lord George Curzon illustrates the influential reforms that he enacted during his time as viceroy (1899–1905). Curzon made substantial modifications to the administration and infrastructure of the British Raj. Despite his passion for reform, he remains a controversial figure. Many have asserted that he prioritised British control and influence over the needs and demands of the Indian population. One of his most contentious acts was the partition of Bengal in 1905, a measure which exacerbated religious divisions within the region. The material relating to the fourth Earl of Minto, Gilbert Elliot-Murray-Kynynmound, likewise evidences his efforts to maintain British influence throughout India during his time as viceroy (1905–1910). His tenure was characterised by cautious reform, as he sought to address the rising tide of Indian nationalism whilst maintaining British supremacy. The documents include his personal correspondence and diaries. The collection also includes the diaries of his wife, Lady Mary Caroline Grey. These sources allude to growing anti-British sentiment amongst the Indian population during the opening decade of the twentieth century. They likewise evidence how the viceroy responded.
