	Samuel Hartlib - LoveToKnow 1911
		During the civil war Hartlib occupied himself with the peaceful study of agriculture, publishing various works by himself, and printing at his own expense several treatises by others on the subject.
		He planned a school for the sons of gentlemen, to be conducted on new principles, and this probably was the occasion of his friend Milton's Tract ate on Education, addressed to him in 1644, and of Sir William Petty's Two Letters on the same subject, in 1647 and 1648.
		At the Restoration Hartlib lost his pension, which had already fallen into arrears; he petitioned parliament for a new grant of it, but what success he met with is unknown, as his latter years and death are wrapped in obscurity.

	Samuel Hartlib: Introduction
		Although Hartlib and Dury were on good terms with moderate Calvinist episcopalians within the Church of England, the meeting of the Long Parliament in London from 1641 and the establishment of the Presbyterian Westminster Assembly (see catalogue no. 71) seemed to provide them with wider opportunities to win official support for many of their schemes.
		At the same time, Hartlib and his friends searched for means to prolong and improve human life, in particular through alchemical discovery and the practice of chemical medicine, and strived to achieve dominion over nature through the application of new knowledge and new methods of understanding.
		Hartlib in particular seems to have found himself isolated by the political and ecclesiastical settlements at the Restoration.

		Samuel Hartlib was born at Elbing, and educated at the Gymnasium, Brieg, and the University of Königsberg before coming to England to study briefly at the University of Cambridge.
		This was a sufficient basis for Hartlib to start a manuscript newsletter service in the latter half of the 1630s, providing valuable international intelligence to the literate and engaged Protestant (mainly Puritan) English political elite that had become alienated from the Stuart court in the 1630s.
		Hartlib’s collection of funds for the Czech educationalist, Jan Amos Komensky (Comenius), whose visit to London in 1641—2 he also organized, was a significant, but not unique, element in his charitable endeavours during these years.

	Literary Encyclopedia: Samuel Hartlib
		Samuel Hartlib was not a literary figure in his own right, but he played a key role in the dissemination of educational, scientific, religious, agricultural and political writing throughout Europe and North America in the seventeenth century.
		Hartlib’s most cherished project was the establishment of a State-funded “Office of Address” which would collect information from thinkers and practitioners in every field and put them in touch with one another as appropriate, for their own and the common good.
		Hartlib was, however, awarded an annual stipend of £100 in 1649, just after the civil war - in part, perhaps, because his extensive contacts in the rest of Europe made him a valuable source of political information as well as a worthy cause.

		Perhaps Hartlib's own testimony is suspect, but the evidence that he had some personal means seems overwhelming to me. I am putting the rather down as affluent; wealthy is not impossible.
		Hartlib attempted to establish an Office of Public Address, partly to serve as a channel of intellectual communication.
		Hartlib was energetic in promoting useful knowledge of all kinds, but especially on husbandry (or agriculture), on which he published a extensive number of works, most of them not by himself.

		Hartlib instigated the publication of Milton’s Of Education, of The Advice of W. an educational tract by William Petty (1648), and of another The Reformed School by John Dury (1649?), who found it advisable to disavow any desire of superseding universities.

		The seventeenth century was a period of rapid scientific and philosophical development, as well as of social, religious and political crisis, and the Hartlib Papers, as well as providing important insights into the state and the transmission of knowledge of the period also illustrate how intellectual people reacted to the events of the time.
		Hartlib was born around 1600 in Elbing in East Prussia, but his mother was English, and his family was involved in an English merchant company in Danzig and Elbing.
		Sadly, despite his eminent connections, Hartlib was always short of money, though his association with the Parliamentary side resulted in a small pension from Cromwells government, but at the Restoration he fell out of favour, dying in penury two years later in 1662.

		Wherever Hartlib's utopian zeal originated--his early contact with reformers and utopianists in Germany or at Emmanuel College, Cambridge--he devoted his considerable energies to utopian enterprises for nearly forty years.
