Peckitt was arguably the most important glass designer of the eighteenth century and undertook prestigious commissions at York, Oxford and elsewhere. In 1764 he was contracted by the Dean of Exeter, Jeremiah Milles, to supply glass to complete the restoration of the Cathedral’s glazing and to make the new window, which has often been considered to be his masterpiece. Peckitt’s Great West Window is no longer extant (although portions of it have been salvaged), having been replaced in 1904 with a window, designed by Messrs Burlison and Grylls, which was itself destroyed by enemy action in 1942. The Burlison and Grylls window was more in keeping with the Gothic revival aesthetic typical of the later nineteenth century and its proponents had argued forcefully that Peckitt’s Great West Window was an aberration that needed to be removed. The thesis provides initially an account of the debate that raged in the national press and beyond about the propriety of replacing Peckitt’s window. This documentary evidence gives a valuable insight into attitudes towards the adornment of churches at the turn of the century: should respect for the extant fabric include Peckitt’s one-hundred-and-fifty year-old contribution or should the building be renovated with a modern medieval-revival window. Until recent times it was largely the case that eighteenth-century glass was regarded as wholly inferior to the medieval glass that preceded it and it is widely accepted that glass making in Britain only recovered with the nineteenth-century Gothic revival and the modern glass that followed it. In this thesis it is suggested that the denigration of eighteenth-century glass and in particular that of William v Peckitt at Exeter, ignores its qualities, practical and intellectual, and the Great West Window is used to reveal the seriousness of such endeavours. Peckitt’s work is positioned within the context of the particular circumstances of the restoration of Exeter Cathedral in the mid-eighteenth century under two successive Deans, Charles Lyttelton and the aforementioned Jeremiah Milles, both of whom were nationally significant antiquarian scholars. Peckitt was knowledgeable about medieval glass techniques, worked sensitively in restoring medieval glass and when designing a completely new window for the Cathedral worked closely with Milles to provide an iconographical scheme that was appropriate for the Cathedral, its history and its patrons. The evidence brought forward suggests that it is wrong to presume that glass designers like Peckitt had little understanding of medieval glass manufacture nor any interest in using the medium of glass appropriately in the context of a medieval building. vi Table of Contents List of Illustrations ........................................................................................................................... 3 Acknowledgements ......................................................................................................................... 7 Abbreviations .................................................................................................................................... 9 Declaration ...................................................................................................................................... 11 Introduction .................................................................................................................................... 13 Chapter One: The Arguments .................................................................................................... 23 Chapter Two The Great West Window of Exeter Cathedral .......................................... 63 Chapter Three: Continuity and Change .................................................................................121 Conclusion .....................................................................................................................................167 Appendix 1: The Cloisters – Surviving Glass from the Great West Window ......................................173 Appendix 2: Notation of William Peckitt’s Great West Window at Exeter Cathedral ....................181 Bibliography ...................................................................................................................................187 1 2 List of Illustrations Figure 1: Portion of The Temple Memorial Window, Burlison and Grylls, 1903. .......... 25 Unknown.

In mediaeval times, the clergy, monks and canons sang the eight daily offices standing in their stalls. By the tenth century the stalls were partly enclosed with wooden sides and backs to protect the occupants from the cold and draughts of an unheated building. The word "stall" means a place to stand. We still use the term in "cattle stalls". Although fold-up seats were introduced in the eleventh century, these could be used only for the Epistle and Gradual at Mass and the Responses at Vespers. By the twelfth century, small ledges on the undersides of seats were referred to as indulgences, or in Latin misericordia, meaning acts of mercy.

    Friday Dear Sir, I presented your Petition today, but the Speaker would not allow it to be referred to the Committee which will sit after our short Holidays the end of next week because it objects in fact to the principle of the Bill. It will therefore be desirable that you should, after seeing the Bill, attend, as I understand it will be essentially, prepare another Petition against such clauses as you particularly object to – the second Reading took place on the day that your letter reached me, & the Petition was not given to me till the following one – no purpose desired on your part opposition to the to the second Reading, & Mr Leake told me that it was to pass by consent without resistance. Mr Williams told me otherwise afterwards, but you seem to have been tardy in taking defensive measures. Ld Ellenborough’s Bill applies to Exchanges of Common Land, & would probably not meet the present case, of which the object may in fact be useful, if the enclosure of the Cow Common & compulsory tithe assurances be abased now. The allotment proposed for the Poor must probably be desirable. Yrs faithfully, Harcourt This letter was sent by ‘FREE post, of 16 W 16 1834’, to The Revd. R Pryce, Aston, Bampton.

    Patronage, Performance, and Reputation in the Eighteenth-Century Church

    PATRONAGE, PERFORMANCE, AND REPUTATION IN THE EIGHTEENTH-CENTURY CHURCH DANIEL REED OXFORD BROOKES UNIVERSITY Thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the award of Doctor of Philosophy in History SEPTEMBER 2019 1 Lancelot Blackburne, Archbishop of York. After unknown artist. Mezzotint, sold by Thomas Bakewell. 1724 or after. Private collection of Daniel Reed. 2 For Freya 3 Abstract The perceived success of the revisionist programme in dissipating the ‘longest shadow in modern historiography’ calls into question the ongoing relevance of ‘optimistic’ versus ‘pessimistic’ interpretations of the Church of England in the long eighteenth century. And yet, the case of Lancelot Blackburne, Archbishop of York (1724-1743), has not benefitted from the ‘revisionist turn’ and represents an unparalleled problem in accounts of the Georgian episcopate. Whilst Benjamin Hoadly has been the most maligned bishop of the period for his theology, Blackburne is the most derided for his personal imperfections and supposed negligence of his episcopal duties. These references are often pernicious and euphemistic, manifesting in several quasi-apocryphal tales. The most regularly occurring being accounts of Blackburne’s lasciviousness, speculation over the paternity of his chaplain Thomas Hayter, and the Archbishop’s association with piracy. As long as these bastions of resistance to revisionism remain, negative assumptions will linger on in contemporary studies of the Church, regardless of whether they are reframed by current trends. As such, this thesis utilises under-explored archival sources to reorient Blackburne’s case to its historical context. This is achieved through an exploration of the inter-connected themes of patronage, performance, and reputation.

    names, Vol. 57 No. 4, December, 2009, 189–207 The Anglophone Toponyms Associated with John Smith’s Description and Map of New England Matthew H Edney University of Southern Maine, USA This article clarifies a well-known but hitherto unexamined phenomenon: the Anglophone toponyms imposed on Captain John Smith’s map, New England ([1617]). It explains names that are otherwise obscure to modern historians and geographers, it considers the pattern of the new toponyms, and it allocates responsibility for the names not only to the future Charles I but also to Smith himself. It also lists the indigenous place and polity names recorded by Smith in his Description of New England (1616). It concludes with a cautionary tale concerning historiographic presumptions about the map’s efficacy in shaping the adoption of toponyms by subsequent English colonists. keywords Captain John Smith, Charles I (Great Britain), New England, Cartography, Colonization, Promotional propaganda Introduction Captain John Smith’s map New England (Figure 1) has long been famous for the manner in which its Anglophone toponyms were selected by the then fourteen-year- old future Charles I (Edney, 2010). Smith had developed the idea of a colony in 1614 when he had voyaged quickly down the east coast of northern Virginia from Mt Desert Island to Cape Cod; he called this putative colony New England by analogy to the Nova Albion previously declared by Sir Francis Drake on the west coast of North America. To promote this colony, he prepared both New England and a letterpress pamphlet, A Description of New England (Smith, 1616: 3).
