This digital census offers a comprehensive listing of all known copies of the two editions of Ralph Brooke\u2019s A catalogue and succession of the kings, princes, dukes, marquesses, earles, and viscounts of this realme of England <\/em>(London, 1619 and 1622). As with many books from the early modern period, Brooke's\u00a0Catalogue<\/em> is best understood through the material evidence left by its owners and readers; yet, they have rarely been a part of its story. The project\u2019s enumerated lists and detailed cataloguing of more than 160 copies attempts to fill this gap in the historical record.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>

So why Brooke? Ralph Brooke\u2019s Catalogue<\/em> first appeared in 1619. Printed in London by William Jaggard, the work was but another contribution to the ever-growing list of books on printed English heraldry. As the title of the work notes, the book catalogues the nobility of England. Tracing its lineage from the Norman conquest to the early 17th century, the book catalogues six centuries of English families. This seems straightforward enough, except that the subject of English heraldry was contentious. Indeed, Brooke, who held the title of York Herald, was famous for his cantankerous debates over genealogies and titles with other English heralds and antiquarians. In the Dedication to King James at the start of the first edition, Brooke made it clear that his work stood as a corrective to the flood of errors introduced by other writers in previous imprints (sig. A3r). In the years to follow, others would take issue with Brooke\u2019s accusations, and when Brooke\u2019s second edition appeared in 1622, he found himself a target.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>

Many of the surviving copies of Brooke\u2019s two editions are annotated with handwritten notes, and some annotators explicitly point to errors in Brooke\u2019s publications. By charting the annotations in these copies, we can begin to gauge how others responded to Brooke\u2019s heraldry. Similarly, looking at signs of early and late ownership offer a wide lens on who owned Brooke\u2019s work and how it was used over time.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>

Early work on the project started around 2018 with Research Assistants Kristina Karathanasis and Barrett Reid-Maroney. In June 2020, the awarding of a SSHRC Insight Development Grant catalyzed the project\u2019s renewal, and with the hiring of new RAs, consistent work on The Multiple Copies project returned. With the project\u2019s launch, we are now looking to complete the descriptions for all extant copies.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>
