================= HES POSTING =================
[This message was sent by Michael Perelman a couple of days ago, but I was
not able to distribute it until today. My apologies to Michael if responses
do not arrive speedily enough for him. -- RBE]
I am in the midst of copyediting a new book, The Invention of
Capitalism, which Duke will publish in early 2000. In the rush to make
a deadline, I cannot locate 2 references. I am calling upon the
collective wisdom of the list to help me out.
The first comes in this paragraph:
The frequent admiration of Sparta owed much to Rousseau, who emphasized
Sparta's collectivism and antipathy to trade (see Therborn 1976,
119-24). Praise of Sparta became a common characteristic of the
tradition of civic humanism, which held that property was important
because it allowed the possessor the independence to exercise civic
virtue (see Pocock 1985a, 115; and 1982, 92). In this vein, Goran
Therborn (1976, 122) remarked:
I cannot for the life of me recall the Pocock 1982 references.
The second should be easier:
The author of a similar description of Virginia also reported
grapes so plentiful that a single vine could fill a London cart,
potatoes as thick as a child's thigh, and frogs large enough to
feed six Frenchmen (see Marx 1964, 75-80).
