HUMOR IN COLONIAL ALMANACS Marion Barber Stowell Although rather early in its development, the American colonial almanac began to fulfill, tolerably after its fashion, the neoclassical precept for literature—to instruct and to delight, the first generation of almanac-makers leaned much more toward instruction than delectation. Seriously utilitarian and scientific, the Harvard Philomaths (1639-1692) produced almanacs whose information was primarily astronomical, navigational, and calendrical. Not until the almanac had become a customary form in colonial New England do we encounter the first example of its humor. This humor, playing on the almanac’s form, relied on New England colonial prejudice. John Richardson in his 1670 almanac describes the heavenly bodies and prognosticates in "The Country-mans Apocrapha ": If Stars do Rule the World, then never fancy What’s told from them is wrought by Nigromancy, Th’ admiring Rusticks faith will shrink perhaps, Hearing the Tidings of such After claps. Who marvels not? The Sun shall once

// nothing @import "../css/default.css"; American Foreign Relations Al-Am ALMANACS Philadelphia and Boston served as printing centers for almanacs, accounting for over 70 percent of all the almanacs printed. Philadelphia is remembered as the home of the Continental Congress and birthplace of both the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution of 1787. It also is synonymous with early American almanacs, thanks in large part to Philadelphia printer cum politician Benjamin Franklin, who produced The vitality of the almanac market did not wane after the Revolution. With the retirement of Ames and his peers, the early Republic witnessed the rise of a new generation of popular almanac makers. Benjamin Banneker, a self-taught free black living in Maryland and Washington, D.C., proved to be one of the most popular compilers in the 1790s. The market explosion that characterized the early Republic also affected almanacs. Between 1765 and 1785, printers produced just over seven hundred almanacs. In the fifteen years immediately following the departure of the last British troops from New York City, production increased by over 140 percent, resulting in almost one thousand almanacs. In the early nineteenth century, American printers produced on average almost one hundred different almanacs a year, often in areas that had not even had printers prior to the Revolution. Such a large circulation of often overtly nationalistic almanacs helped create a national community bound by a shared calendar focused on independence.

Sree's Stories Old-fashioned Almanacs Thrive in Age of Internet Monday, September 8, 1997 Pg. D7 By SREENATH SREENIVASAN In the library of Oak Hill Elementary School in the Kansas City suburb of Overland Park, Kan., one set of books gets used more than most: the almanacs. "For class work and even for fun, the kids love to sit and read them for hours," said Sharon Coatney, the school's librarian. "Children are fascinated with trivia and new things. They love to ask each other 'Did you know such and such?' and almanacs give them a lot of such and suches." Almanac publishers have counted on schools to introduce new generations of buyers to their books. Even in the era of CD-ROMs and the Internet, with their promise of vast storehouses of information, publishers remain enthusiastic about the business of almanacs, especially general-interest books like the World Almanac and Book of Facts and the Information Please Almanac. Two big publishers entered the almanac market this year, bringing out The Wall Street Journal Almanac and The New York Times Almanac. The economics of almanacs is appealing to publishers, because they can bring out new books every year at a relatively low cost. Although each year's edition will include new articles and other updated information, much of the data can be recycled from year to year. Moreover, although almanac sales are quite large by publishing standards, there are no big-name authors demanding huge advances and royalties.
