Zur Feier des Friedens von Paris, 1783, gab das Festkomitee der Pennsylvania Assembly in Philadelphia bei Charles Willson Peale die Gestaltung eines ephemeren Triumphbogens in Auftrag und wählte damit einen Künstler, der sich bereits einen Ruf als wackerer Streiter für die amerikanische Sache erworben hatte. Peale war nicht nur politisch und im Armeedienst aktiv, vielmehr fand sein Engagement auf künstlerischer und kultureller Ebene eine ungebrochene Fortsetzung. Von besonderem Interesse sind dabei gerade die Endphase des Unabhängigkeitskrieges und die ersten Jahre nach dem Friedensschluss, entfaltete Peale doch zu der Zeit eine ganze Reihe auf den ersten Blick recht heterogener Aktivitäten, mit denen er sich auf vielfältige Weise in den Dienst der jungen Nation stellte. Zunächst konträr, aber auf den nächsten Blick als zwei Seiten derselben Medaille erscheinen dabei einerseits die Gestaltung ephemerer Festdekorationen und andererseits die auf Dauer und Nachhaltigkeit angelegte Etablierung einer Porträtgalerie und eines Museums. Wie grundsätzlich Interdependenzen zwischen ephemerer/temporärer und dauerhafter/solider Architektur gegeben sind, so ist auch bei Charles Willson Peale eine Kohärenz zwischen jenen beiden Feldern seines Schaffens zu beobachten. Vielfach zeigen sich ganz ähnliche Motivationen, Strategien und Zielvorstellungen, aber auch analoge Schwierigkeiten und Hemmnisse.

This diary, which John Henry Tudor titled A Registry of College Adventures, documents his life as a student at Harvard College. The entries describe his daily activities and notable events, including trips to the theater, hunting outings to "shoot Robbins," adventures with other students in local taverns, visits with his family in Boston and at the family estate, Rockwood, and the illumination of Cambridge in honor of George Washington's birthday. Tudor created and recorded a humorous classology, describing his peers at Harvard in a sometimes scathing manner, and also recorded information about those obliged to leave the College, usually following pranks or other unacceptable behavior. He also recounts his own involvement in pranks and other antics, which he believed to be the only antidote to the dullness of college life, and in one entry he describes an evening when he and several friends "disguised [them]selves like Negroes" and wandered into scholars' rooms without detection. Tudor was a member of the Hasty Pudding Club and the Porcellian Club ("the Pig club") while at Harvard and describes club meetings in several entries. There are also more reflective and personal entries, describing Tudor's feelings about his aging grandmother, his brother William's departure for Holland, and his desire for a "wife who shall make [him] happy[,] an affectionate dog [and] a farm & garden."

This volume contains a fair copy of minutes from Corporation meetings held from Sept. 17, 1750 through April 23, 1778. It begins with an alphabetical index and contains entries related to a wide range of topics, including the challenges of operating the Charlestown ferry (due to the river freezing, fear of smallpox, and other issues); increases in "pecuniary mulcts" (fines) for breaches of specific College laws; the establishment of the Dudleian lecture; the selection and financial support of missionaries to various Indian tribes; honorary degrees awarded to Benjamin Franklin and George Washington; gifts to the library as it was rebuilt in the wake of the fire of 1764 (many entries provide the title and author of books donated); the management of land and property belonging to Harvard; Treasurers' reports and other financial accounts; changes in the College laws; gifts to the College, ranging from two Egyptian mummies to a solar microscope; the construction of the First Parish Meeting House in Cambridge and the use of adjacent College property by parishoners; rules of endowed professorships; salaries and appointments; closures due to the threat of smallpox; rules governing Commons and the College Library; reports of various Visiting Committees; class schedules, according to subject; student disorders; the establishment of a designated museum space to display "Curiosities"; the effects of the Revolutionary War on Harvard, including repeated requests to the General Court after the war for compensation for damage to College buildings; the cost of various foods and changes in what was served at Commons; and the danger of the chapel's roof, built of too-heavy slate, falling in. Also of interest are minutes from a May 5, 1761 meeting, which note that the General Court voted to pay for Hollis Professor John Winthrop to travel to Newfoundland to observe the transit of Venus "over the Suns disc."
