Their aim was to create a centre for minerals research and education. The museum at present preserves over 50,000 objects, mainly minerals, but also books, teaching models and instruments. The last of these form a little-known collection of considerable scientific and historical value. Historical studies of the instruments collection are based on extensive archival research conducted on documents and ancient catalogues of the museum and the Archivio di Stato in Naples. This study describes the main instruments, detailing their date of acquisition, typology and use. Its goal is to provide a testimony to the contribution of the Real Museo Mineralogico to the development of the science of mineralogy in Naples, and at the same time to extend, by means of new data (suppliers, acquisition methods, price), the catalogue of the instruments collection.","PeriodicalId":44098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Collections","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135276693","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although Islamic manuscripts had made their way to Italy since medieval times and numerous examples may be found in Italian libraries today, very few represent the collection of a single individual and, among these, fewer still have survived as a coherent group. The rediscovered collection of Islamic manuscripts of the Cospi Museum therefore represents a rare survival which provides new insights into early modern collecting practices in Italy, as well as new material through which to explore the history of the interaction between the Islamic world and Italy in the early modern period.","PeriodicalId":44098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Collections","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45931021","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The first Thomas Coke was responsible for the construction and decoration of Holkham Hall in Norfolk. He was a passionate and enlightened collector, celebrated for his artistic contribution to Holkham. By contrast, biographers of Thomas William Coke have tended to focus on his career as a parliamentarian and agricultural reformer. This article seeks to redress that imbalance and examine the collecting habits of Thomas William Coke to demonstrate that he was an equally able collector, and to situate his collecting habits within the context of his time.","PeriodicalId":44098,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the History of Collections","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2022-10-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49039823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
