Create a tour stop (TS) for every location mentioned, even if the agent is only passing through; for example, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu travels to The Hague by long boat from\u00a0Helvoetsluys, and her husbands orders carriages to take their party to Briel, Belgium. While in The Hague, she visits the town square (Voorhout) and the gardens.<\/p>\n
How:<\/em> Be as specific as possible. Include the description of the building, landform, or other structure.<\/p>\n Asking the following questions might enable you to piece together the specific sit you are looking for: Socio-politically, what positions did an agents\u00a0hosts hold?<\/em> Much of this information can be found in the end notes of your source material and through other sources; however,\u00a0sometimes this question\u00a0still need further investigation, especially with the misspelling of a name\u00a0or location. For example,\u00a0considering social and political alliances, events, and other relational information in the region, it might be possible to determine in which “castle on the hill” the\u00a0agent\u00a0stayed while in Budapest in January 1717.<\/p>\n What historically significant meetings and events occurred while the agent\u00a0was in that city that would indicate the location of\u00a0a town center, assembly hall, or city center?<\/em>\u00a0 This question could shed light on significant events in the history of, for example, the Hapsburg Empire and could point to the location of other points of interest in uncovering other histories. For example, what effects, if any, did Lady Montagu’s epistolary criticism of the Imperial German Diet’s assembly to other aristocrats (i.e., Alexander Pope) have on court life? Would the ramifications of her criticisms have any political or legislative effect?<\/p>\n Practically, if you are able to piece together pieces of evidence that in some way answer questions such as these, you are more likely able to narrow down a specific location with some degree of certainty. And if such details are not available, do not take it upon yourself to differentiate the location. As necessary, defer to others who specialize in these histories, or only input of what you can be certain.<\/p>\n In the case of uncertainty,\u00a0name the site simply as “Rome” instead of “the north wall of the Colosseum.” Leave the responsibility of further specification to a future historian that may perhaps work with a new visualization and evidence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Locating a Specific Site Create a tour stop (TS) for every location mentioned, even if the agent is only passing through; for example, Lady Mary Wortley Montagu travels to The Hague by long boat from\u00a0Helvoetsluys, and her husbands orders carriages to take their party to Briel, Belgium.

\n\u00a0A tour stop for both<\/strong> Lady Mary and Edward Montagu\u00a0would have to be created for the following stops: Helvoetsluys<\/span>, Briel<\/span>, the Hague<\/span>. Two additional stops would have to be created for Lady Mary:\u00a0Voorhout<\/span> and\u00a0Favoriten Gardens<\/span>. We would not create two additional stops for and\u00a0relate them to\u00a0Edward Montagu for these stops because we cannot say with a great degree of certainty that he accompanied her there.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
\nArchitecturally, which sites, details, buildings were extant while she was visiting and what buildings are known to have been demolished?<\/em><\/p>\n
