  • East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction
    eastsussex.gov.uk East Sussex Record Office Report of the County Archivist April 2008 to March 2009 Introduction The year was again dominated by efforts towards achieving The Keep, the new Historical Resource Centre, but the core work of the Record Office continued more busily than ever and there was much of which to be proud. In July 2008 we took in our ten-thousandth accession, something of a milestone in the office’s own history of almost 60 years. An application to the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) for £4.9million towards the costs of The Keep was submitted by the Record Office on behalf of the capital partners, East Sussex County Council, Brighton & Hove City Council and the University of Sussex, in September. This represented around 20% of the anticipated costs of the building, since the partners remain committed to find the remainder. In December we learned our fate: that we had been unsuccessful. Feedback from the HLF indicated that ours had been an exemplary application, and one which they would have liked to have supported but, in a year when the effect of diverting HLF money to the Olympics was being felt, it was thought necessary to give precedence to some very high-profile projects. We were, of course, disappointed, but determined not to be deterred, and the partners agreed to pursue ways forward within the existing funding. Because it would further hold up the project, adding to inflation costs, but give no guarantee of success, we decided not to re-apply to the HLF, and by the end of the financial year were beginning to look at options for a less expensive building.

  • Of Place-Names in Sussex
    PREPARATORY TO A DICTIONARY OF SUSSEX PLACE-NAMES Richard Coates University of the West of England, Bristol © 2017 First tranche: place-names in A, E, I, O and U 1 Foreword It is now almost 90 years since the publication of Allen Mawer and Frank Stenton’s standard county survey The place-names of Sussex (English Place-Name Society [EPNS] vols 6-7, Cambridge University Press, 1929-30). While I was living and working in Sussex, before 2006, it had long been my intention to produce an updated but scaled- down of this major work to serve as one of the EPNS’s “Popular” series of county dictionaries. Many things have intervened to delay the fulfilment of this aspiration, but it struck me that I could advance the project a little, put a few new ideas into the public domain, and possibly apply a spur to myself, by publishing from time to time an online “fascicle” consisting of analyses of selected major or important names beginning with a particular letter. Here are the first five, dealing with the letters A, E, I, O and U. Readers are invited to send any comments, including suggestions for inclusion or improvement, to me at [email protected]. With that end in mind, the present work consists of an index in electronic form of the names covered by Mawer and Stenton, kindly supplied many years ago, before I was acquainted with the joys of scanning, by Dr Paul Cavill. For some of these names, those which Percy Reaney called “names of primary historical or etymological interest” (interpreted subjectively), I have constructed a dictionary entry consisting of evidence and commentary in the usual way, plus a National Grid reference and a reference to the relevant page-number in Mawer and Stenton (e.g.

    A DICTIONARY SUSSEX DIALECT COLLECTION OF PROVINCIALISMS IN USE IN THE COUNTY OF SUSSEX. BY REV. W. D. PARISH, VICAR OF SELMESTON, SUSSEX. NX LEWES: FARNCOMBE & CO. 1875- PE *. PS PREFACE. HE march of education must sooner or later I trample down and stamp out anything like distinctive pro- vincial dialect in England; but when this result shall have been effected, much that is really valuable will be lost to our language, unless an effort is promptly made to collect and record words which, together with the ideas which first rendered them necessary, are rapidly falling into disuse. Although in all such collections there will be a large pro- portion of words and phrases which are mere curiosities of expression, utterly useless to the science of language, yet there will remain a considerable number well worthy of being retained, and if possible revived. Every year new words are being imported into the JEnglish language and gradually coming into general use amongst us. Too many of these are selected from the ghastly compounds of illiterate advertizers, and many more are of the most offensive type of slang the sweepings of the music-hall, the leavings of the prize-ring and the worst specimens of Americanisms, selected to the exclusion of many good old English words which are to this day more frequently used in the United States of America than in our own country. The English Dialect Society, which has lately been formed, will soon become the centre of a very valuable influence, by encouraging and uniting many word-collectors who have been quietly working for some time past in different parts of the country, and by giving a right direction to their labours.

  • A Contribution Towards the Study of the Scandinavian Element in the English Dialects
    A CONTRIBUTION TOWARDS THE STUDY OF THE SCANDINAVIAN ELEMENT IN THE ENGLISH DIALECTS. Preface. The present work consists of 1. an introductory disqui- sition upon the form, history and distribution of the Scandi- navian loan-words in the English dialects; 2. a list, (called List A), of Scand. loan-words in the dialects about whose origin there is little doubt, (for Tests of Scand. origin see Introduction §§ 27—31) with remarks on their form, history &c, and their parallels in the Scand. languages; 3. a list (called List B) of words which may be Scand. or English. List A has been made as comprehensive as possible, though I cannot hope that it includes all the Scand. loan-words in the dialects. Many words I have omitted because the accepted etymology seems erroneous or very doubtful; many hitherto accepted Scand. words I have relegated to List B. as not certainly Scand. but probably English. List A contains about 500 words. List B is intended to be merely illustrative; in it parallel forms, distribution &c are but rarely given in full; both the time and space at my command have been insufficient to allow of my making this list at all comprehensive. It contains a little over 200 words. From English works upon this subject I have derived but little assistance. The works which deal directly with the Scand. origin of dialect words are none of them by professed scholars.
