    Leah Tether and Laura Chuhan Campbell Early Book Collections and Modern Audiences: Harnessing the Identity/ies of Book Collections as Collective Resources This article summarizes and contextualizes the discussions of a workshop held at Durham University in November 2018. In this workshop, participants (includ- ing academics, students, independent scholars, special and rare books librarians, and archivists) discussed the notion of the collection (that is, the identity of collection as a whole, rather than just its constituent parts), and its potential to serve as a means of engaging both scholarly and public audiences with early book cultures. This study sets out a series of considerations and questions that might be used when tackling such special collections engagement projects, including ones involving more modern collections than the case studies examined here. In November 2018, the Institute for Medieval and Early Modern Studies at Durham University kindly funded a workshop to investigate the ways in which contemporary audiences have been, are being, and can become engaged with medieval and early- modern book culture through the provision and distribution of key resources. These resources range from published books to digital artefacts and editions; from replica teaching kits—such as scriptorium suitcases—to physical archives and repositories.1 The aim of the workshop, which was led by one of this article’s two authors (Leah Tether), was to build a picture of best practice to inform the teaching and commu- 1. The authors are grateful to Durham’s Institute for Medieval and Early Modern Studies for fund- ing the workshop, and to the administrators of the Residential Research Library Fellowships (jointly organized by Ushaw College and Durham University) that enabled Leah Tether to spend time in Durham in November 2018.

  • Of St Cuthbert'
    A Literary Pilgrimage of Durham by Ruth Robson of St Cuthbert' 1. Market Place Welcome to A Literary Pilgrimage of Durham, part of Durham Book Festival, produced by New Writing North, the regional writing development agency for the North of England. Durham Book Festival was established in the 1980s and is one of the country’s first literary festivals. The County and City of Durham have been much written about, being the birthplace, residence, and inspiration for many writers of both fact, fiction, and poetry. Before we delve into stories of scribes, poets, academia, prize-winning authors, political discourse, and folklore passed down through generations, we need to know why the city is here. Durham is a place steeped in history, with evidence of a pre-Roman settlement on the edge of the city at Maiden Castle. Its origins as we know it today start with the arrival of the community of St Cuthbert in the year 995 and the building of the white church at the top of the hill in the centre of the city. This Anglo-Saxon structure was a precursor to today’s cathedral, built by the Normans after the 1066 invasion. It houses both the shrine of St Cuthbert and the tomb of the Venerable Bede, and forms the Durham UNESCO World Heritage Site along with Durham Castle and other buildings, and their setting. The early civic history of Durham is tied to the role of its Bishops, known as the Prince Bishops. The Bishopric of Durham held unique powers in England, as this quote from the steward of Anthony Bek, Bishop of Durham from 1284-1311, illustrates: ‘There are two kings in England, namely the Lord King of England, wearing a crown in sign of his regality and the Lord Bishop of Durham wearing a mitre in place of a crown, in sign of his regality in the diocese of Durham.’ The area from the River Tees south of Durham to the River Tweed, which for the most part forms the border between England and Scotland, was semi-independent of England for centuries, ruled in part by the Bishop of Durham and in part by the Earl of Northumberland.

  • Skeletons Found in Mass Graves Are Those of 17Th Century Scottish Soldiers 2 September 2015
    Skeletons found in mass graves are those of 17th Century Scottish soldiers 2 September 2015 England, USA, where they worked as indentured servants. They were able to gain their freedom if they saved enough to redeem their sale price or if they worked the full term of their indenture and a number went on to become successful farmers in Maine. What happened to the bodies of those who died has been a mystery for almost 400 years, but the Durham University researchers believe they have begun to solve the puzzle.

  • History of Hatfield
    History of Hatfield When Hatfield was founded in 1846, it was a revolutionary development in residential higher education. For the first time, student rooms were let furnished, all meals were taken in Hall, expenses were fixed, reasonable and known in advance. Students and staff were regarded as a community, cared for and guided by College Officers. Most of this is fairly general practice now but it took some time before it became an accepted model throughout the world. 50 years later, after some initial uncertainties Hatfield had developed into a well known, predominantly theological, establishment under Archibald Robertson, later an eminent bishop At the centenary of its foundation Hatfield had changed its emphasis to science and education but reached a low ebb until the end of World War II, when Eric Birley supervised the revival of the College and was responsible for many modern aspects of administration and organization including the establishment of a tutorial system and provision of facilities for a Senior Common Room. In midsummer 2006, the rugby days of Tom Whitworth were history, and the admission of women – agonized under James Barber and grudgingly accepted are now a welcome fact. The features of the present time are, vastly larger student numbers, a wider range of study courses, and increasingly good academic results. The Hatfield spirit – present from early days – is alive and well. There are some things money can’t buy.(2005) 1 SITE AND SETTING Hatfield College is a residential college in Durham University. It is in the city centre, nestling near the Cathedral on its World Heritage peninsula site.

  • Issue Two, 2012
    Symeon 1 Symeon Issue Two, 2012 Welcome to the second issue of Symeon. We are continuing as we began last year, as a student-run magazine for alumni and friends of the Durham University history department, publishing a selection from the on-going research by members of the department at all levels. Whilst we hope that you enjoy simply receiving news from your old department, we are also aware that Symeon has its place in the increasingly noticeable goundswell of change in the way that universities communicate with the world around them. Spaces previously divided by a clear boundary between ‘academia’ and the ‘extra-mural’ are becoming a much more open field of interaction. This is partly a consequence of new technologies, (you might be reading this magazine in electronic PDF or in paper-and-ink format). But there are also new paths of thought and new imperatives and solutions at work, and two recent developments in Durham illustrate this well. You may already be aware that Durham alumni now have free access to the huge online archive of scholarly journals at JSTOR, a notable step towards realizing the full public benefit of the electronic dissemination of research. We would love to hear how readers have been able to make use of this resource for work or pleasure. At the other end of the technological spectrum was a conference recently hosted by the department for teachers of history in secondary schools. The teachers met with academics and postgraduates to discuss ways in which tertiary and secondary layers of education could support each other in their teaching, discussion which by chance against the background of the education secretary’s announcement that universities may in the future be asked to play a greater role in developing school curricula.

The works comprised geomagnetic and ground-penetrating radar surveys of the Green and the hard-surfaced area to its south. 1.2 The principal aim of the surveys was to determine the presence or absence of geophysical anomalies which could reflect mass graves of Scottish soldiers captured after the Battle of Dunbar on 3rd September 1650 and subsequently held prisoner in Durham Cathedral. 1.3 The works were commissioned by Historic Scotland and conducted by Archaeological Services Durham University. Results 1.4 No anomalies characteristic of large soil-filled pits, such as mass graves, were identified with either technique.
