ADVANCED HISTORY TEACHING FUND- 

 REPORT ON THE WORK OF THE CLASSES IN 

 PALAEOGRAPHY, DIPLOMATIC AND HISTORICAL 

 SOURCES, AT THE LONDON SCHOOL OF 

 ECONOMICS,* 



During the Session 1906-7. 



{By Hubert Hall, F.S.A., Appointed Teacher in 

 Early Economic History.) 



During the past Session (1906-1907), Part I. of 

 the course of lectures on " The Equipment of the 

 Historical Student " has been given in accordance 

 with the Prospectus printed in the Calendar of the 

 London School of Economics. 



In th^'s course the Sources of British History (in- 

 cluding European relations) were dealt with in con- 

 siderable detail, the subject of the lectures given in 

 the three terms being the description of documents 

 and printed books, and the use of various inventories 

 and catalogues referring thereto. Thus the students 

 have been able to form some idea of the nature, 

 position, classification, and uses of Ofiicial and Local 

 Records and Historical MSS., as well as to realise 

 these conceptions by the inspection of MSS. and 

 printed books at the Record Office and British Museum 

 under the guidance of the lecturer. At the same time a 

 Select Bibliography has been compiled and circulated 

 during the progress of the course, and this will be 

 issued as a private hand-list for the use of students 

 in the same form as the Select Bibliography in con- 

 nection with a two years' course on " European 

 Historical Documents."
