Abstract:
AbstractAlthough Naples was one of Europe’s largest cities (after London and Paris), studies of the management of its water supply during the early modern period are sorely lacking, despite growing interest in the subject at both an Italian and European level. Naples was perhaps unique in relying on a vast and tortuous underground network of reservoirs, cisterns, channels and conduits, accessed by well shafts, all fed by an ancient aqueduct. The present study outlines and evaluates the Neapolitan water supply as it existed in the period, analysing the archival records of the municipal tribunal responsible for the city’s infrastructure, the ‘Tribunale della Fortificazione, Acqua e Mattonata’, and its various ‘Appuntamenti’ (proposals), ‘Conclusioni’ (decisions) and edicts. This is interwoven with reference to pertinent printed accounts, from contemporary guide books to medical regimens and health manuals. We examine both water quantity, in terms of availability and accessibility (by looking at the structure and its management, and the technicians responsible for its maintenance) and water quality (by looking at contemporary attitudes and perceptions). In the process we are able to question the widespread view of early modern Naples as chaotic and uncontrolled, governed by a weak public authority, as well as widely held assumptions about the “inertia” of the pre-modern hydro-social system more generally.

Abstract This essay, investigating India’s history within the “global early modern” from 1500 to 1800, distinguishes between the “early modern” and the “global early modern.” While the latter label is more inclusive, I conclude that changes visible in earlier periods were more radical, enabling India to participate meaningfully in the “global Middle Ages.” India showed ambivalence in negotiating the “global early modern.”

Abstract:
The Red Jews are a legendary people; this is their history. From the late thirteenth to the late sixteenth century, vernacular German texts depicted the Red Jews, a conflation of the Biblical ten lost tribes of Israel and Gog and Magog, as a savage and unnaturally foul nation, who are enclosed in the 'Caspian Mountains', where they had been walled up by Alexander the Great. At the end of time, they will break out and serve the Antichrist, causing great destruction and suffering in the world. The hostile identification (c. 1165) of Jews with the apocalyptic destroyers of Ezekiel 38-39 and Revelation 20 expresses a new and virulent antisemitism that was integrated into the powerful apocalyptic traditions of Christianity. None of the few scholars who have noticed the Red Jews in medieval and early modern vernacular texts has sought out, collected and examined the complete body of medieval and early-modern sources that feature the Red Jews. This study provides a long-term analysis of the intimate connections between antisemitism and apocalypticism via a forgotten and submerged piece of German 'medievalia', the Red Jews. The legend gradually dissipated. Until the beginning of the seventeenth century it was a medieval lens through which Germans saw events relating to the Turkish threat in the East; after that time, the Red Jews disappeared from European texts.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the connections between Calvinism and early modern subjectivity as expressed in the drama produced during the reigns of Elizabeth I and James I. By looking at a range of theological, medical, popular, legal and polemical writings, the thesis aims to provide a new historical and theoretical reading of Calvinist subjectivity that both develops and departs from previous scholarship in the field. Chapter one examines the critical question of 'authority' in early modern Europe. I trace the various classical and medieval antecedents that reinscribed Christ with political authority during the period, and show how the Reformers' conception of conscience arises out of this movement. In chapter two, I offer a parallel reading of Reformed semiotics in relation to the individual's response to two specific loci of power, the Church and the stage. Chapter three brings the first two chapters together by outlining the development of Calvinist doctrine in early modem England. Chapter four offers a theoretical reading of the early modern 'unconscious' in relation to the construction of England as a Protestant nation state against the threat of Catholicism. In the next four chapters, I show how the stage provided the arena for the exploration of Calvinist subjectivities through readings of four early modern plays. Chapter five deals with Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and in particular the Calvinist conception of Christ interrogated throughout the play. Chapter six looks at The Revenger's Tragedy in relation to the question of masculine lineage and the Name-of-the-(Calvinist)-Father. Finally, in chapters seven and eight, I examine two of William Shakespeare's plays, Macbeth and Antony and Cleopatra. In the first, I demonstrate how the play's concern with witchcraft brings about a parody of providential discourse that is crucial to an understanding of Macbeth's subjectivity. And in the second, I excavate the use of the biblical book of Revelation in Antony and Cleopatra in order to show how an understanding of the text's 'religious' concerns problematises more mainstream readings of the drama.

Abstract:
Famines were recurring events in the early-modern world. This thesis aims to identify and analyse institutional, social, and political parameters that improved or reduced the society’s capacity for crisis management and institutional adaptations in Stockholm in times of foodshortages during the period 1650–1750. The study consists of four case studies. The study shows that the government effectiveness improved during the investigated period, which increased the possibilities to mitigate the consequences of famine. Furthermore, the ambition to protect the social order seems to have been the most important driving force to take measures to ease and prevent famines in Stockholm. I conclude that very few institutional adaptations to prevent future famines were made during the period. Most likely because the elite lacked political incentives to act. The study provides knowledge on societal resilience in the early-modern era

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis basically has a twofold aim: on the one hand, to make a somewhat neglected body of Renaissance prose more readable, by adding, in a punctual and miscellaneous manner, to our historical, philological and thematic understanding of it and by examining it in the light of some of our current theoretical preoccupations; and, on the other hand, to problematize the "realistic" rubric assigned to these works and to do so by cultivating a more thoroughgoing textual realism on the part of readers.
These works, traditionally grouped together because of the interaction of their authors at the end of the 16th century, include Robert Greene's "cony-catching" and "confessional" pamphlets, the texts of the controversy between Thomas Nashe and Gabriel Harvey, and Harvey's manuscript drafts, as well as more familiar works such as Nashe's Unfortunate Traveller.
The theoretical issue of "the real" as a textual effect has been divided up according to the three nominal categories of persons, places and things, but the thesis falls methodologically into two halves. The opening chapters aim at reintroducing the figures of Greene, Nashe and Harvey, and exploring the quasi-genres of confession, invective and rough draft as exemplary models of the textual construction of a realistic person. They also attempt an alternative form of reading which is an amalgam of cento, summary, close reading, theoretical aside, and running commentary. In the second half, microreadings of the Marprelate Tracts, the cony-catching pamphlets, and texts by Nashe are used to shed light on theoretical issues of textual "place" such as the rhetorical construction of "presence" and metaphorical "movement." Once the relationship between premodern and postmodern textuality has been sketched, the final chapter offers a critique of the unreflexive academic practice of doing "readings," and argues for a new literalism and the self-subversion of the figurative in an "extrarhetorical" reading of Nashe's Lenten Stuffe.

Abstract:
This thesis takes as its object of study a certain strand of Early Modern English writing characterised by its cornucopian invention, immethodical structure, and creatively exuberant, often chaotic, means of expression. It takes as its point of departure the Erasmian theory of ‘copia' (rhetorical abundance), expanding upon it freely in order to formulate new and independent notions of copious vernacular writing as it is practised in 16th- and 17th-century contexts. Throughout I argue for the continuity and pervasiveness of the pursuit of linguistic plenitude, in contrast to a prevailing belief that the outpouring of 'words' and 'things' started to dissipate in the transition from one century (16th) to the next (17th). The writers to be discussed are Thomas Nashe, Robert Burton, John Taylor the ‘Water-Poet', and Sir Thomas Urquhart. Each of the genres in which these writers operate–prose-poetry, the essay, the pamphlet, and the universal language–emerge either toward the end of the 16th century or during the course of the 17th century, and so can be said to take copious writing in new and experimental directions not fully accounted for in the current scholarship. My contribution to the literature lies principally in its focus on the emergence of these literary forms in an Early Modern English context, with an emphasis on the role played by copiousness of expression in their stylistic development and how they in turn develop the practice of copia.

Abstract:
Household inventories record objects that can be compared with surviving artefacts contributing to the study of material culture and social history. However, this thesis shows how heterogeneous inventories found in early modern Scottish sources resist quantification and aggregation. Instead, qualitative use of inventory evidence is advocated. Inventories can contribute information on the locations of activities in the home. These activities may be preferred to the object as evidence of historical change and as units of international comparison. Furnishing a house was cultural activity, and a construction of culture. In this study, objects are regarded as participants in cultural activities, strategies, and the construction of values. Sixteenth-century inventories are often impersonal and tend to show similarities in content, encouraging mechanistic interpretations of domestic life. The seventeenth century saw a proliferation of household equipment and furnishing for elites throughout Europe due to changes in production and consumerism. Some of this new furnishing was bought in London, some in France. While national difference was apparently maintained in architecture, new furnishings may have effaced distinctions within elite rooms. Scottish and English culture was merged by aristocratic intermarriage. This new culture is seen in the inventories of Mary, dowager Countess of Home. She maintained houses in England and Scotland. Some of her furnishings represented the style of an inner circle at court. Her inventories are also significant because they detailed equipment for a range of activities. She personally prepared medicines and sweetmeats, and had a number of scientific instruments. Pursuits reconstructed from the detail of later inventories can illuminate other domestic situations where clues are more subtle or absent. The level of autonomy Lady Home and her daughters exercised over their homes is a reminder of the agency exercised by women over furnishings, gardens, architecture, and estate policy.

Abstract:
The first Englishmen to write about the city-state of Venice were the pilgrims passing through on their way to the Holy Land. Their impressions are recorded in the travel diaries and collections of advice for prospective fellow pilgrims between the early fourteenth and early sixteenth centuries, the most substantial being those of William Wey, Sir Richard Guylforde and Sir Richard Torkington, who visited Venice in 1458 and '62, 1506, and 1517 respectively. In the 1540s arrived the men who saw Venice as part of the new Europe--Andrew Borde and William Thomas. Thomas's study of the Venetian state emphasized the efficiency of its administration, seeing it as an example of constructive government, where effective organisation for the common good led directly to national stability and prosperity. The mid-sixteenth century saw the beginnings of Venice as a tourist centre; the visitors who came between 1550 and the end of the century described the sights and the people, the traditions and way of life. Fynes Moryson's extensive account details what could be seen and learned in the city by an observant and enquiring visitor. In addition to information available in first-hand accounts of Venice, much could be learned from the work of the late sixteenth-century English translators. Linguistic, cultural, geographical, historical and literary translations yielded further knowledge and, more importantly, new perspectives, Venice being seen through the eyes of Italians and, through Lewkenor's comprehensive work, The Commonwealth and Government of Venice, of Venetians themselves. Finally, to assess the general impressions of Venice and the Venetians, we consider the literature of the turn of the sixteenth-seventeenth century; what, and how much, of the three-hundred year accumulation of knowledge of the city and people of Venice had most caught the attention and imagination of the English mind, and how close was the relationship between the popular impression and the documentary information from which it had largely developed.

Abstract:
This collection embraces the increasing interest in the material world of the Renaissance and the early modern period, which has both fascinated contemporaries and initiated in recent years a distinguished historiography. The scholarship within is distinctive for engaging with the agentive qualities of matter, showing how affective dimensions in history connect with material history, and exploring the religious and cultural identity dimensions of the use of materials and artefacts. It thus aims to refocus our understanding of the meaning of the material world in this period by centring on the vibrancy of matter itself. To achieve this goal, the authors approach "the material" through four themes – glass, feathers, gold paints, and veils – in relation to specific individuals, material milieus, and interpretative communities. In examining these four types of materialities and object groups, which were attached to different sensory regimes and valorizations, this book charts how each underwent significant changes during this period.

Abstract The Early Modern Period is the first third of the Modern Period and covers the period after the voyage of Christopher Columbus in 1492 and the establishment of a more global network, ending in 1750. Some people who lived towards the end of this period witnessed the development of some forms of restaurants as we know them today. Restaurante Botin, which was founded in 1725 in Madrid by a French cook named Jan Botin, cooked food that guests brought in since selling food was banned because it could damage other businesses (Marples, 2020). This era witnessed the rise of the 'Grand Tour' that was undertaken mainly by a wealthy social elite in continental Europe for a combination of culture, education and pleasure purposes. The tour often included a circuit of Europe, centred principally on France, Italy, Germany, Switzerland and the Low Countries, and was undertaken principally (yet not exclusively) by the British. This is a phase in the history of tourism which established the travel and route itinerary.

Abstract:
Abstract Objective Reliable production forecasting for shale wells is crucial for investment decisions, optimized drilling rate, energy security policies, and informed green transition scenarios. The industry has struggled with inaccurate production estimates from decline curve analysis (DCA) and from a long production history requirement for data-driven models. We have developed a state-of-the-art, physics-guided, data-driven model for accurate production forecast of unconventional wells for up to 10 years into the future. With an error of less than 5%, our hybrid model requires only 1.5 years of production data. The method facilitates long-term production diagnostics, well survival probability estimates, and profitable economic decisions. Method The hybrid state-of-the-art production forecast method combines our τ-M physical scaling model with the higher-order derivatives of the production rate. For a set of 4000 wells, the first 1.5 years of production data were used to develop a universal hybrid model to estimate the pressure interference time, τ, for each well. The estimated τ is used to calculate the stimulated mass, M, of individual wells using the physical scaling curve. Finally, the data-driven estimate of τ, and physics-driven estimates of M are used to forecast future well production and well survival probability with time. Results The robustness of the hybrid model has been tested on 6000 new wells in the Barnett, Haynesville, Eagle Ford, and Marcellus shale plays. Using the initial 1.5 years of production data and a single hybrid model, the predicted pressure interference time, τ, for 6000 wells has an R2 of 0.98. The maximum error in the predicted cumulative production of 2000 Barnett wells for any given year between the 2nd year of production to the 15th year of production is only 2%. Similarly, the maximum error in the predicted cumulative production for Marcellus (500 wells), Haynesville, (1500 wells) and Eagle Ford (200 wells), is 2%, 5%, and 3%, respectively. The achieved outstanding accuracy is further used to calculate the well survival probability with time and optimize the future drilling rate required to sustain a given energy demand. Novelty We have developed a new, robust state-of-the-art hybrid model for unconventional well production forecasting. The model achieves an outstanding accuracy of > 95% and uses only the initial 1.5 years of production data. Early and accurate estimation of future production governs future investment decisions, re-fracking strategy, and improved energy security strategy.

Abstract:
Abstract Geomechanics plays an important role in stimulation design especially in complex tight reservoirs with very low matrix permeability. Robust modelling of horizontal stresses along with rock mechanical properties helps to identify the stress barriers which are crucial for optimum stimulation design and proppant allocation. A comprehensive modeling and calibration workflow showcased the value of geomechanical analysis in large stimulation project of Ostracod-Magwa, a compex shallow carbonate reservoir in the Awali onshore field, Bahrain. For the initial Geomechanical model regional average rock properties and minimum stress values from earlier frac campaigns were considered. During campaign progression, advanced cross dipole sonic measurements of the new wells were incorporated in the geomechanical modeling which provided rock properties and stresses with improved confidence. The outputs from wireline-conveyed microfrac tests and the fracturing treatments were also considered for calibration of the minimum horizontal stress and breakdown pressure. The porepressure variability was established with the measured formation pressure data. The geomechanically derived horizontal stresses and elastic properties were used as input for the frac-design. Independent fracture geometry measurements were run to validate the model. The poro-elastic horizontal strain approach was used to model the horizontal stress magnitudes. This approach shows variability of the stress profile depending on the elastic rock properties. The study shows variable depletion in porepressure across the field as well as within different reservoir layers of Magwa and Ostracod. Ostracod is more depleted compared to the Magwa reservoir with porepressure values below hydrostatic (~7 ppg). The B3 shale layer between Magwa and Ostracod reservoirs could be established as a stress barrier with 1200-1500 psi closure pressure. The closure pressure in Ostracod varies in the range of 1000-1500 psi while the range in Magwa is 1100-1600 psi. In the Magwa reservoir a gradual increase of closure pressure with depth is observed, while no such trend is apparent in the shallower Ostracod formation. Geomechanical models served as a key input of the integral frac optimization workflow that resulted in increasing the well productivity by more then double compared to previous stimulation campaigns. The poroelastic horizontal strain model to predict the horizontal stresses from cross-dipole sonic data provides higher stress variability and ultimately yields a high resolution stress profile. This model calibrated with direct closure pressure measuremtns is crucial for successful stimulation design in complex reservoirs with very low matrix permeability. Geology Overview and Problem Statement The Ostracod and Magwa formations are shallow reservoir development targets over the Awali field in the Kingdom of Bahrain. The depth of these reservoir ranges from 1400-1800 ft TVDSS and are represented by shallow marine limestones, which are composed of bioclastic, packstone/wackestone with occasional dolomites, chert, lime mudstone, and scarce pyrite. The reservoirs are represented by a triple porosity system which consists of matrix porosity, secondary natural fractures porosity and bioturbation enhanced porosities that can be associated with dissolution (micro-vugs). The Ostracod reservoir exhibits intense natural fractures towards the base whereas the upper part of the reservoir is associated with a combination of both, vugs and natural fractures. The section is heavily interbedded with numerous shale barriers which gives an average net-to-grows (NTG) ~ 35% with gross thickness ~150-200 ft. On the other hand, Magwa reservoir is represented by thicker limestones where the secondary porosity is mostly represented by bioturbated units resulting in a higher average NTG ~75% with gross thickness up to 150 ft. The reservoirs are heavily faulted, ~140 faults identified by manual seismic interpretation and more than 800 faults observed on the well log data by missing/repeating sections over total of ~2000 wells. Production from the reservoirs started from early 1960's mainly by perforation of watered/gas out wells from the lower producing horizons, followed by active drilling camping in 2011-2015 ~250 wells and minor drilling in 2016-2019. New drilled wells had a so-called "flash" production exhibits a high oil production rates followed by rapid production decline with the long low rate tail production. Long production history and active development drilling however did not provide good recovery factor for the reservoirs – after more than 55 years of development the current recovery factor is ~5%. At the same time, a recent new well drilling campaign provided only marginal economic production results, which opened the area for production enhancement opportunities. Based on historical production analysis and numerous acid stimulations performed on the field it was concluded that acid stimulations demonstrated a good immediate production response however the effect was not lasting more than 3-6 months (AlJanahi et al. 2020). And one of the key contributors to this effect on top of the natural depletion was the geological structure of target reservoirs – the reservoirs are not clean carbonates – they are heavily intercalated with shales. The effect of increased connected reservoir volume to the wellbore was not lasting for long due to possible fine migration and did not provide enough vertical connectivity and good lateral extension. Based on above observations, hydraulic fracturing was considered as an option for the production enhancement which could potentially provide good lateral and vertical reservoir connectivity with the wellbore and would not be heavily affected by time, or at least the effect of operation will last longer than observed historically. However, a hydraulic fracturing campaign was performed on the field in the period 2010-2011, despite good production results the incremental production after hydraulic fracturing was insignificant comparing with the wells without the fracturing. After analyzing observed results coupled with post fracturing evaluation it was concluded that the actual achieved hydraulic fracture geometry was not enough to outpace non fractured wells in these reservoirs. Based on numerical simulation studies it was concluded that the higher effective half-length and higher conductivity of a hydraulic fracture could provide better production results with much longer effect in time. Therefore, the question of achievable fracture geometry, its distribution laterally and vertically was pushed into the forefront.
