摘要

During the winter of 1825, and again in 1828, two eminent men of science, Thomas Young and John Herschel, debated the state's obligation to provide for the scientific arts, particularly the Board of Longitude's support for attempts to improve navigation and the provision of instruments for seagoing men of science. The question of how authority and expertise in scientific matters was judged by members of the Admiralty and their associates was closely connected with individuals' opinions about the support men of science should be able to expect from the state to further their expertise, both financially and materially. The exchange offers insight into the relationship of expertise and authority as understood by those attempting to negotiate Admiralty patronage. Alongside discussion of how the Board of Longitude more generally negotiated the demands, needs and wants of men of science, light is shed on how the Commissioners of Longitude used their authority to judge scientific expertise on behalf of the Admiralty in the first decades of the nineteenth century.
