  • GEOFFREY NUTTALL Geoffrey Fillingham Nuttall 1911–2007
    GEOFFREY NUTTALL Geoffrey Fillingham Nuttall 1911–2007 Formative influences GEOFFREY F. NUTTALL, ecclesiastical historian, was born 8 November 1911 and died 24 July 2007. Although it was his achievement as a histor­ ian, especially as an ecclesiastical historian, that ensured his election to the British Academy in 1991, he was educated as a classicist and he became a minister of religion. Pastoral ministry remained his vocation. To all outward appearance he followed a conventional career for a man of his background. His father was a general practitioner in a rising health resort. On both sides of his family there had been generations of parsons, professional men, superior tradesmen and prosperous farmers. Several of them were JPs. All were the sort to provide civic ballast for country towns nationwide. Geoffrey Nuttall took great pride in this. His understanding of it informed his work as a historian. His roots encom­ passed Cumberland, Lancashire, Lincolnshire, Northamptonshire and Yorkshire. They were small­town and rural but they incorporated a broader urban experience: Edinburgh, Liverpool, London, Manchester. As with all such families, there was vicarious satisfaction in grand, if ill­defined and distant, connections (the Listers of Gisburne, Barons Ribblesdale) and in links with industrial paternalism (Sir William Hartley, the jam manufacturer, was ‘Cousin Jam’; he was in fact Nuttall’s second cousin twice removed).1 There was a closer link with an intelligent bishop, 1 Sir William Hartley (1846–1922). See D. J. Jeremy, ‘Hartley, Sir William Pickles (1846–1922)’, in D. J. Jeremy and C. Shaw (eds.), Dictionary of Business Biography: a Biographical Dictionary of Business Leaders Active in Britain in the Period 1860–1980, 3 (London, 1985), pp.

  • Rivers Religion and the Idea of a University Final
    The Study of Religious Writing and Religious Education from the Perspective of a Literary and Intellectual Historian Isabel Rivers ‘Religion and the Idea of a Research University’ Conference Gillespie Centre, Clare College, Cambridge, 3 – 5 April 2013 I have been invited to contribute to this conference as a representative of the field of English literature with research interests in religion. In my paper I focus on two areas in which I am currently working and have been for some time. These are 1) religious thought and its expression in England in the so-called ‘long eighteenth century’, 1660-1830, and the literature of dissent, Methodism, and evangelicalism within that period; and 2) the dissenting academies in the British Isles, 1660-1860. I start with an account of how I have come to be engaged in this research. For each of these areas, I outline a series of questions of different kinds that I have set myself at various stages or that have been arrived at in collaboration with others. I provide case studies drawn from my recent work which can be seen as ways of responding to some of these questions, and which I hope will illuminate the broader question set by this conference, ‘What place does religion have in the Western research university?’ 1. Religious thought and its expression in England; the literature of dissent, Methodism, and evangelicalism The first point I would like to stress is that although I have spent my entire career in departments of English literature, my work has crossed several disciplines. When I’m asked to give a label to myself I usually say that I’m a literary and intellectual historian and that I’m particularly interested in the history of religion and philosophy 1 and the history of the book.
