This collection of Foreign Office files explores the history of Persia (Iran), Central Asia and Afghanistan from the decline of the Silk Road in the first half of the nineteenth century to the establishment of Soviet rule over parts of the region in the early 1920s.

Comprised of correspondence, intelligence reports, agents’ diaries, minutes, maps, newspaper excerpts and other materials from the FO 65, FO 106, FO 371 and FO 539 series, this resource forms one of the greatest existing sets of historical documents relating to this region, offering insights not only into the impact of Great Power politics on the region, but also the region’s peoples, cultures and societies.

Subject: maritime history
This collection belongs to AM Explorer.
Life at Sea explores the lives of seafarers in the Anglo-American maritime world during the period 1600-1900. The emphasis of the resource is largely on narrative content, giving accounts of life onboard a variety of ocean-going vessels, including merchant and naval vessels, whalers, and pirate ships. A large amount of this content is sourced from journals written by sailors at sea but also from memoirs written by sailors reflecting on their lives. Another major source of narrative content are court records, especially from depositions and witness statements, including the examinations of pirates and court martials within the Royal Navy.
Material has been sourced from institutions in both England and the United States, providing collections that reflect the maritime experience on both sides of the Atlantic. The bulk of the material ranges from 1650-1850, reflecting the availability of material and roughly coinciding with the Golden Age of Sail. The end of the 1850s is also the high-water mark of American whaling prior to the discovery of oil in 1859 at Titusville, Pennsylvania.

Subject: Victorian films
This collection belongs to AM Explorer.
The late Victorian era saw a host of optical inventions and popular entertainments converge into the exciting and revolutionary form of moving pictures, changing the face of visual culture irrevocably. As people experimented with this new format across the world, a number of technical and creative pioneers in Britain were particularly prominent in capturing on film everything from national events and people’s everyday lives to variety acts and fantastical stories. With content dating from 1895 to the beginning of the twentieth century, this resource contains collections of early films from the British Film Institute, and a selection of films from the Eye Filmmuseum, that provide not only an insight into the works of early filmmakers, but also the vibrancy and vigour of late Victorian culture and society.
Across these collections, supported by a number of contextual essays, video interviews and exhibitions written by Victorian Studies and Film History experts, it is possible for researchers to explore:
Early filmmaking innovations in editing techniques, special effects, and narrative that informed the future of film.
Actuality footage of significant historical events and figures, including Queen Victoria’s Diamond Jubilee in 1897, and her funeral in 1901, the South African War of 1899-1902 (the Second Boer War), the funeral of British Prime Minister William Ewart Gladstone in 1898, and the coronation of Edward VII in 1902.
Examples of early popular genres such as phantom rides, trick films and factory gate films.
The early film industry, early production companies, and film as a commodity, particularly in relation to local communities in Britain.
Scenes of late Victorian and Edwardian urban environments and industries, scenic countryside, fairgrounds, sporting events, seaside towns and global travel.
The interconnected nature of early British filmmakers and their production companies, as well as their relationships with individual exhibitors and showmen.
