Mathematician Report Index Below is a list of mathematicians. You may choose from this list or report on a mathematician not listed here. In either case, you must discuss with me the mathematician you have chosen prior to starting your report. No two students may write a report on the same mathematician. I would advise you to go to the library before choosing your topic as there might not be much information on the mathematician you have chosen. Also, you should determine the topic early in the term so that you can "lock-in" your report topic!! The report must include: 1. The name of the mathematician. 2. The years the mathematician was alive. 3. A biography. 4. The mathematician's major contribution(s) to mathematics and an explanation of the importance. 5. A historical perspective during the time the mathematician was alive. Some suggestions on the historical perspective might be: (a) Any wars etc. (b) Scientific breakthroughs of the time (c) Major discoveries of the time (d) How did this mathematician change history etc.

THE BRAIKENRIDGE COLLECTION - BIOGRAPHICAL INFORMATION Nathan Cooper Branwhite Portrait of George Weare Braikenridge c.1832 Portrait (64 KB) Braikenridge was at least 55 when this portrait was made and we know from contemporary descriptions that he looked young for his age. He is seated in a walnut chair dating from the end of the 17th century and surmounted by the royal Stuart coat-of-arms. The book-stand to his right was what is known as a piece of 'hybrid' furniture for it was made from a couple of Gothic pew ends. It was a characteristic of antiquarian collectors such as Braikenridge to rescue fitments from churches and other old buildings if they were destroyed for new buildings or by fires. Braikenridge's collection included the quarter boys from Christ Church, Broad Street (removed when the facade of the original church was demolished and now lent back to the church by the City of Bristol) a magnificent Elizabethan stone chimney-piece from a house in Small Street and barge-boards from destroyed timber-framed houses.

Stampp, Professor Emeritus, University of California at Berkeley Planters ambitious to augment their wealth, together with their black slaves, were an important driving force in the economic and political development of new territories and states in the Southwest. Their commodities accounted for more than half the nation's exports, and the plantations themselves were important markets for the products of northern industry. In short, they played a crucial role in the development of a national market economy. The plantations of the Old South, the white families who owned, operated, and lived on them, and the blacks who toiled on them as slaves for more than two centuries have been the subjects of numerous historical studies since the pioneering work of Ulrich B. Phillips in the early twentieth century. The literature, highly controversial, has focused on questions such as the evolution and nature of the planter class and its role in shaping the white South's economy, culture, and values; the conditions experienced by American blacks in slavery; the impact of the "peculiar institution" on their personalities and the degree to which a distinct Afro-American culture developed among them; and, finally, the sources of the tension between the proslavery interests of the South and the "free labor" interests of the North that culminated in secession and civil war.

THE BRAIKENRIDGE COLLECTION - VIEWS OF BRISTOL IN THE 1820s George Weare Braikenridge (1775-1856) was a local antiquarian who commissioned mainly local artists to draw the streets, buildings and busy quaysides of his city. His original intention was to 'extra-illustrate' William Barrett's History and Antiquities of Bristol (published in 1789). This was a common hobby at the time; books were not heavily illustrated, as we are used to today, and people would collect drawings which could be bound up with the text of books. Braikenridge's collection of some 1400 Bristol drawings outgrew his original conception. The bulk of the drawings were collected in the 1820s with a trickle of additions in the 1830s; he must then have regarded his task as complete. The overall quality of the collection is high because a talented group of artists was working in Bristol at the time. Braikenridge also collected drawings by the Bristol School of Artists, such as Francis Danby and Samuel Jackson, which were not regarded by him as illustrations to Bristol's history, they were therefore not included in the organised part of his collection, but many are in the Museum's collection.
