Extractions: Robert Smith published 'A Compleat System of Opticks' in 1738. The sections on telescope design and fabrication were the most important English language manual for 18th century telescope makers; and the book remains the best document of its era for use by current historians. As a preliminary effort towards redressing contemporary neglect of this interesting person, 3 texts on Smith are posted here: Barrow-Green, June.

Summary The Smith's Prize competition was established in Cambridge in 1768 by the will of Robert Smith (1689-1768). By fostering an interest in the study of applied mathematics, the competition contributed towards the success in mathematical physics that was to become the hallmark of Cambridge mathematics during the second half of the nineteenth century. Perceptions of Smith's intentions were to play a part in discussions about the content and balance of the mathematics curriculum, as may be seen in the Airy quotation in the title. In the twentieth century the competition acted to stimulate the formalization of Cambridge postgraduate research in mathematics. Throughout its existence the competition has played a significant role by providing a springboard for graduates considering an academic career and the majority of prize-winners have gone on to become professional mathematicians or physicists. In seeking the reasons behind the competition's success, attention has been paid to the life and work of Robert Smith, the intention behind his bequest, and the history of the competition from its origins until 1940. 2. Robert Smith Robert Smith was christened on 16 October 1689 at Lea in Lincolnshire, and was the son of John Smith (d.1710), rector of Gate Burton, Lincolnshire. His mother, Hannah Smith (d.1719), was the aunt of Roger Cotes (1682-1716). John Smith, who had been educated at Trinity College, Cambridge, was well versed mathematically and in the mid-1790s Cotes was sent to stay with him for mathematical coaching prior to going to St Paul's School. John Smith was a skilful tutor and when Cotes went up to Cambridge in 1699 his mathematical preparation was well beyond what might have been expected. Robert Smith entered Trinity College as a pensioner in 1708. He was awarded a scholarship the following year and while an undergraduate he lodged with Cotes. In 1707 Cotes had been elected the first Plumian Professor of Astronomy and Experimental Philosophy, and when Smith arrived in Cambridge Cotes provided work for him as his assistant. In 1711 Smith took his BA and two years later was elected to a fellowship of the College. He held a variety of college posts, and in 1716, on the death of Cotes, was elected to succeed him as Plumian Professor, a position he retained until 1760. In 1742 he was appointed Master of Trinity, and from then on resided in the College lodge until his death in 1768. In 1742-3 he acted as Vice-Chancellor of the University. During his tenure at Trinity Smith maintained a keen interest in college affairs as well as in the university in general. (9) On the academic side, he lectured on optics and hydrostatics, and, like his cousin, was one of the early supporters of Newtonian philosophy. He edited his cousin's works (10) and wrote two books of his own, one on optics and one on harmonics, both of which enjoyed a high reputation for many years after his death. Smith's 'Optics', (11) published in 1738 (with an abridged version in 1778) and translated into Dutch, French and German, was essentially the first textbook on the subject and widely read. Voltaire, for example, congratulated Smith upon it, while Desaguliers omitted optics altogether from his own Course of Experimental Philosophy in favour of Smith's work. In the nineteenth century, it found favour with both Lord Rayleigh and Hermann von Helmholtz. And Rouse Ball, writing more than 150 years after the book's first publication, considered it to be one of the best textbooks on the subject available. It was especially renowned for promoting the particulate theory of light, as well as other ideas from Newton's Optics. In one significant result Smith shows that a certain relationship between the magnification and location of object and image for one lens remains invariant for a system of lenses. This result, later discovered independently by both Lagrange and Helmholtz, is now sometimes referred to as the Smith-Helmholtz formula. (15) The Optics also contains detailed descriptions of methods for making optical instruments that were found to be extremely useful and led to increased activity in the manufacture of such instruments. (16) The work concludes with a history of telescopical discoveries. Taken as a whole, the Optics shows that Smith had a deep understanding of the theory of the subject, and an extensive knowledge of its history, as well as considerable didactic skill. Smith's Harmonics, which was published in 1749 with a second edition in 1759 and a postscript in 1762, also excited praise. In 1859 T. H. Safford thought it 'an indispensable help in the study of a portion of our subject', while in 1924 R. C. Archibald described it as 'the first English scientific treatment of harmony, a work of high order' discussed in 'a manner attractive even for a reader in the present day'. Smith's primary purpose in writing the Harmonics was to provide a description of his 'Theory of Imperfect Consonances'. This was a system for tempering a musical scale, or tuning a keyboard instrument, by making all the consonances as equally harmonious as possible. He constructed a mathematical theory to derive the equal harmonic intervals and validated his results on an organ and a harpsichord. Despite the book's academic success, the system never became popular in practice owing to the difficulty and costs involved in constructing instruments incorporating it. Smith's career was focused almost exclusively on Cambridge with few exceptions. In 1718 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society but he appears not to have played an active role in the Society, although he was a signatory to the Society's certificate of approval given to John Harrison in 1737 in recognition of his work on the chronometer to solve the longitude problem. Smith was also one of the eight commissioners of the Board of Longitude which subsequently voted financial assistance to Harrison. (20) In 1728 Smith was appointed by warrant as Master of Mechanics to King George II, the warrant being confirmed on the accession of King George III in 1760. (21) In addition he was also appointed Professor of Astronomy to William, Duke of Cumberland. (22) Both of these appointments involved work at the Kew House Observatory although it is not clear what either entailed. (23) Nevertheless, Smith and Cumberland certainly maintained communication with one another. Smith dedicated both his edition of Cotes's lectures and his Harmonics to Cumberland, while in 1740 Cumberland asked Smith to supply him with a sea quadrant and a telescope. (24) Footnotes. 9. An account of some of Smith's forays into college and university politics is contained in D. A. Winstanley, The University of Cambridge in the Eighteenth Century (Cambridge, 1922). 10. On Cotes's death Smith collected most of Cotes's surviving papers. In 1722 he published Cotes's 'In Harmonia Mensurarum et alia opuscula Mathematica' together with some of his own theorems, and in 1738 he published, with notes, Cotes's 'Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures'.

SMITH, ROBERT (1689-1768), mathematician and founder of Smith's prizes at Cambridge, was born in 1689, and probably at Lea, near Gainesborough, to which living his father was instituted in October 1679. His father, John Smith, had married Hannah (d.1719), the aunt of Roger Cotes [q. v.]; he became rector of Gate Burton, Lincolnshire, and was buried at Lea on 28 Dec. 1710. Robert was educated at the Leicester grammar school and admitted pensioner at Trinity College, Cambridge, on 28 May 1708, and scholar on 13 May 1709. At Trinity he was under the care of Cotes, his cousin, who was then Plumian professor of astronomy, and lived with him as his assistant. He graduated B.A. 1711, M.A. 1715, LL.D.1723, and D.D. per literas regias 1739. He was elected minor fellow 1714, major fellow 1715, sublector quartus 1715, lector linguae Latinae 1724, lector Iinguae Graecae 1725, lector primarius 1727, and senior fellow, 11 June 1739. He took pupils at Cambridge, was master of mechanics to George II, and held the post of mathematical preceptor to William, duke of Cumberland, from June 1739 to July 1740. Smith, like his cousin Cotes, was throughout life the 'decided partizan' of Richard Bentley, the master of Trinity, in his struggles with the fellows. On 10 July 1716 Smith was elected to succeed Cotes as Plumian professor of astronomy, and on 21 May 1718 he was admitted F.RS. Early in 1739 the observatory over the great gate of Trinity College, for the use of the professor, was completed under his direction (Bentley, Correspondence, ii. 448, 451, 786). The telescope in the library, which is described in Smith's work on 'Opticks,' and is shown to strangers as Sir Isaac Newton's telescope, was made for him. He retained the professorship until 1760. Smith was literary executor to Cotes, and communicated notes for the memoir of him in the 'General Biographical Dictionary'of Lockman and others (1736, iv. 441-5). In 1722 he edited and augmented with some of his own theorems Cotes's 'Harmonia Mensurarum et alia opuscula Mathematica,' and in 1738 he edited, with notes, his cousin's 'Hydrostatical and Pneumatical Lectures' of Cotes. The first work was dedicated to Dr. Mead, the second (which was republished in 1747 and 1776, and translated into French by LeMonnier in 1720) to the Duke of Cumberland. He projected, but did not proceed with, the publication of others of his cousin's works. The monument to Cotes's memory, with the epitaph by Bentley, was erected at the cost of Smith, and he presented to the library of the college in 1758 a marble bust of his cousin by P. Scheemakers. At Bentley's death Smith was appointed, on 20 July 1742, master of Trinity College, and he also acted in 1742-3 as vice-chancellor of the university. As master his 'equitable and judicious conduct healed all wounds and conciliated all parties' (Monk, Life of Bentley, ii. 420). His acts of kindness were numerous, and his influence in the university was considerable. He recommended John Colson [q.v.] to come to Cambridge, and obtained for him in 1739 the Lucasian chair. He advised Richard Cumberland to apply himself to mathematics, and supported his claims to a fellowship. His encouragement gave Bishop Watson, when an undergraduate 'a spur to his industry and wings to his ambition,' for which the bishop always revered Smith's memory. Israel Lyons, the younger, was aided by him in his studies, and in return dedicated to Smith his 'Treatise of Fluxions', 1758. At the contest between Lords Hardwicke and Sandwich for the post of high steward of the university of Cambridge, he was a supporter of Sandwich. He was consequently introduced by Churchill into the poem of the 'Candidate' (lines 615-620) as 'Black Smith of Trinity; on Christian ground For faith in mysteries none more renowned.' A recluse and a student, Smith, whose health was for many years precarious, lived in the lodge with an unmarried sister, Elizmar (1683-1758), who was buried in the ante-chapel at Trinity, and with a niece. He was fond of music, and played the violon-cello. Smith died in the lodge on 2 Feb. 1768, and was buried on the south side of the communion table in the college chapel, where he is commemorated by a Latin epitaph. A funeral oration in Latin on his death was delivered by the Rev. Thomas Zouch in the chapel on 8 Feb. (Zouch, Works, 1820, i. 438-43). Richard Cumberland records that he was thin in frame, with an aquiline nose, a penetrating eye, and shrill nasal voice. A bust of Smith by P. Scheemakers was placed in the library of the college in 1768, with the inscription 'Praesenti tibi maturos largimur honores.' A portrait of him, painted by Vanderbank in 1730, and given by Thomas Riddell, one of the fellows, in 1827, hangs in the lodge; another, painted by J. Freeman in 1783, and said to have been given by the Rev. Edward Howkins in 1779. is in the hall. It was probably paid for by moneys bequeathed by Howkins for that purpose. Smith's benefactions to the university and to Trinity College were munificent. To the former he left by will the sum of 3,500 pounds. South Sea stock, part of the interest to be applied in a dinner to the trustees, and of the remainder, half to the Plumian professor, and half between two junior B.A.s who have made the greatest progress in mathematics and natural philosophy. The Smith's prizes, which now amount to about 23 pounds each, 'proved productive of the best results, and at a later time enabled the university to encourage some of the higher branches of mathematics.' The college, to which during his lifetime he had presented many pictures and sculptures, obtained under the will the sum of 2,000 pounds of the same stock, which was ordered to be sold on 15 Dec. 1770, and applied towards the new combination-room in the great court, and the painted window, containing nearly 140 square feet of glass, at the south end of the library. The grotesque design (by Cipriani) for the window, which was completed by 1775, represented George III under a canopy, giving a laurel chaplet to Sir Isaac Newton, while Bacon is at the king's feet. Smith published two works. The first was 'A compleat System of Opticks, in four books,' 1738, 2 vols.; dedicated, with unusual warmth of expression, to Right Hon., afterwards Sir Edward Walpole, a personal friend at Cambridge, through whose aid the work was started and finished, and under Smith's will and codicil Walpole received legacies of 2,000 pounds South Sea stock. The 'elementary parts' of these volumes, selected and arranged for the use of students at the universities, were published separately at Cambridge in 1778. They were translated, with additions, into German by Kaestner in 1755, and into French, with additions, by Dural le Roy, at Brest in 1767, with a supplement in 1783, and by L.P.P. [i.e. Ie Pere Pezenas] at Avignon in 1767. Benjamin Robins [q.v.] published a criticism upon them in 1739. From this treatise on optics, Smith went by the nickname of 'Old Focus.' Smith's second volume was 'Harmonics, or the Philosophy of Musical Sounds,' 1749, dedicated to the Duke of Cumberland; 2nd edit. 1759, and postscript, 1762. The latter was inscribed to Sir Edward Walpole. Both works were of the highest value. They were recommended to Gibbon by George Lewis Scott [q.v.], with the words that the treatise on optics entered 'into too great details for beginners,' and that the volume on harmonics 'is the principal book of the kind' (Gibbon, Miscellaneous Work's 1837, pp. 232-3). Smith left numerous papers on Cotes and Newton to the Rev. Edward Howkins, who in 1779 bequeathed them to the college. From them was collected the 'Correspondence of Newton and Cotes,' edited by the Rev. J. Edleston in 1860, and afterwards republished at Amsterdam. Twenty to thirty letters from Newton to Cotes were borrowed from Smith by Conduitt for his projected life of Newton, and never returned (Bentley, Correspondence, ii. 776-7). Letters to Smith are printed in the 'Correspondence of Newton and Cotes' (pp. 231-9), in Brewster's 'Memoirs of Newton' (2nd edit.), ii. 47-9, and in James Bradley's 'Works and Correspondence' (1832), pp. 401-3. His name frequently occurs in the diaries of John Byrom, with whom he was contemporary at Cambridge, and Byrom's verses on John Gilbert Cooper's 'Epistles from Aristippus in retirement' in a letter to Dr. S-, are supposed to be addressed to Smith. When Zachary Grey [q.v.] published an 'Examination of the Fourteenth Chapter of Newton's Observations on Daniel', Smith wrote 'Three Observations' upon it which were not published. [Gent.

Morse, Edgar W. (U.C. Davis, Cal State Sonoma). Dictionary of Scientific Biography. Charles Gillispie, ed. New York: Scribner, 1970. Smith, Robert. (b. Lea, near Gainsborough, England, 1689; d. Cambridge, England, 2 February 1768), physics. Smith's father, John Smith, was rector of the parish of Lea; his mother, Hannah Smith, was the aunt of Roger Cotes, Plumian professor of astronomy at Cambridge. Smith was educated at the Leicester Grammar School and from 1708 at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he lived with and assisted his cousin Cotes. Smith graduated B.A. in 1711 and M.A. in 1715. He was elected a fellow of his college in 1714, Plumian professor in 1716, and fellow of the Royal Society in 1718. He received the LL.D. in 1723 and the D.D. in 1739. Appointed master of Trinity College in 1742, Smith was vice-chancellor of the University in 1742- 1743, and he held the Plumian professorship until 1760. Among his many bequests to the university and to his college, he founded the two Smith's prizes for undergraduate attainment in mathematics and natural philosophy. Smith wrote on optics and harmonics. In 1738 he published 'A Compleat System of Opticks in Four Books, viz. A Popular, a Mathematical, a Mechanical, and a Philosophical Treatise'. Both comprehensive and reliable, the work became probably the most influential optical textbook of the eighteenth century. It was also published in Dutch in 1753, in German in 1755, and in two different French translations in 1767. In 1778 an abridged version was published in English. In turn, its popularity helped to establish the eighteenth century conviction that light is particulate. Although Newton had expressed some uncertainty about the nature of light, Smith asserted in the 'Popular Treatise' that there was no reason to doubt that light consisted of material particles. He then gave a plausible explanation of most known optical phenomena in terms of particles of light that were acted upon by attractive and repulsive forces. In these explanations Smith never even suggested that any vibrating medium might exist to produce light or 'Newton's rings,' nor did he even mention Newton's theory of 'fits.' Rather he repeated Newton's assertion that the rings were caused by the disposition of varying thicknesses of air or films that reflect or refract different colors of light. In the 'Mathematical Treatise,' Smith developed a very comprehensive set of geometric propositions for the computation of the focus, location, magnification, brightness, and aberrations of systems of lenses and mirrors. Apparently he was the first person to construct images by means of an unrefracted central ray and a ray parallel to the axis that is refracted through the focus. (1) He also derived a particular case of the relationship now known as the Smith-Helmholtz formula or the theorem of Lagrange. Using a relationship between the magnification and location of object and image for one lens, Smith showed that the same relationship was invariant within a system of any combination of lenses. (2) In the 'Mechanical Treatise,' Smith gave methods for making optical instruments, and in the 'Philosophical Treatise,' he gave an account of astronomical discoveries. In 1749 Smith published 'Harmonics or the Philosophy of Musical Sounds', which had a second edition in 1759 and a postscript in 1762. Although it was partly a textbook, Smith's principal objective was to describe his system of tempering a musical scale by making 'all the consonances ... as equally harmonious as possible....' (3) He derived the 'equally harmonic' intervals by a mathematical theory and confirmed his results on an organ and a harpsichord. Smith's temperament was an improvement on existing systems, but its use required impractical mechanical changes in the instruments. Notes: 1. Ernst Mach.

Printer-Friendly Version Slowly Luc Perrin has increased the quality at his domaine so that now people recognize his name as a producer rather than thinking he is one of the "Beaucastel Perrins." The families, although neighbors and friends, actually have no familial ties. Luc Perrin pauses for the camera while putting together a hypothetical blend of 2003 Chateauneuf-du-Pape Wine Advocate (45-50% Grenache Blanc (which brings roundness, structure and typicity), 18-20% Roussanne (which brings fat, length and fruit), 20-22% Clairette (50% was planted in 1921, which brings fruit), 5-7% Bourboulenc (from vines planted in 1921 and which brings floral notes and acidity). These grapes are vinified separately, pressed directly, and fermentated sur lie. The Roussanne is vinified in new oak. After its alcoholic fermentation, its lees are stirred a couple of times a week for seven months. The other grapes are raised in temperature controlled stainless steel where they harmonize until the final blend. (75% Grenache, 15% Cinsault, 10% Syrah): Hand-harvested fruit which is 100% destemmed. The varietals are fermented together in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks for 10-12 days. Bottled in March to guard the maximum amount of fruit.

Extractions: Home Producer Profiles Champagne Profiles Pol Roger founded this eponymously named house in 1849, although it was not quite as we know it today. The house was named simply Roger, and Pol, who was the son of a notary and owned no vineyards at all, made his living largely by making Champagne for other houses. But when the thriving family business came to his sons, Maurice and Georges, in 1900, they honoured their father by changing their surname to Pol-Roger. And thus the family business also became Pol Roger. Maurice was very much the public face of the company, whereas Georges was much more active in the blending and tasting rooms. Maurice Pol-Roger was a legendary figure in the history of Épernay and Champagne. His iconic status was assured when, as mayor of Épernay, he resisted the efforts of an invading German army to enter the town in 1914. The grateful townspeople continued to re-elect Pol-Roger as mayor until 1935 when, anxious that he may step down after so many years in post, they bestowed the honour upon him for life. But death comes even to mayors, and so in 1959 Pol Roger passed to Maurice's son, Jacques, and nephew, Guy. This partnership ran the firm until 1963 when the fourth generation, Christian Pol-Roger and Christian de Billy, took control. The two Christian's run the show still, with assistance from Hubert, son of de Billy, since 1988. Although the business started without a scrap of vineyard to its name, a situation that persisted until 1955, Pol Roger currently owns 55 ha largely in and around Épernay. On the Côtes des Blancs these include sites in the Grands Cru villages Cramant, Chouilly and Avize, and Premier Cru villages Grauves and Cuis. On the Montagne de Reims they own vineyards in Grand Cru, Ambonnay, Bouzy and Verzy, and Premier Cru Trepail, as well as numerous lesser vineyards.

Extractions: Le roi de Sicile, duc de Pouille et de Calabre Les expéditions en Méditerranée et en Afrique A son rêve d'unification de l'Italie, Roger II ajoute le projet d'une Méditerranée normande, passant d'abord par la conquête de l'Ifrîqiyya (Tunisie), alors en pleine anarchie. Plusieurs tentatives infructueuses pour prendre Mahdiyya, entre 1117 et 1123, mettent à mal le mythe de l'invincibilité normande et n'entraînent d'abord qu'un renouveau des raids des pirates musulmans en Sicile. A partir de 1128, Roger entreprend une politique de guerre de course. La prise de Djerba en 1134 offre aux corsaires normands une base en Méditerranée occidentale, appuyée à partir 1144, par de nombreuses implantations côtières. En 1146, Tripoli (Cyrénaïque) capitale de la course arabe est prise, et, en 1147, Gabès, Sfax, Sousse, puis Mahdiyya. Les côtes d'Afrique du Nord sont désormais plus ou moins soumises à une tutelle légère : elles payent tribut, mais gardent leurs usages et leurs cadres. Après la prise de Bône (Algérie) en 1153, la conquête cesse et les acquis sont progressivement reperdus jusqu'en 1160, sous l'action des Almohades qui progressent en Afrique du Nord. Concurremment, Roger mène également une politique offensive vers l'Orient. Exclu par Manuel Ier Comnène et Conrad III de la participation à la seconde croisade, en 1147, le roi de Sicile entreprend alors de déstabiliser le
