TUKER AUTHOR OF PARTS II. AND III. AND JOINT-AUTHOR OF PARTS I. AND IV. OF THE HANDBOOK TO CHRISTIAN AND ECCLESIASTICAL ROME, AND JOINT-AUTHOR OF 'ROME' IN THIS SERIES PAINTED BY WILLIAM MATTHISON [Illustration] LONDON ADAM AND CHARLES BLACK 1907 _Published May 1907_ Preface "Of making many books there is no end." When I set about writing this book I was ready to believe that the University had not its fair share of the literary output. Cambridge indeed does not appear to suggest, does not lend itself to, the numberless little brochures or hymns of praise which accompany the honoured years of the sister university; in weighty tomes and valuable _collectanea_ of MSS., however, it possesses works (such as Cooper's Annals, the Cole and Baker MSS., and Willis and Clark's Architectural History) not possessed by Oxford and unrivalled, perhaps, by any English town. In the middle of last century the invaluable Fuller was the most readily accessible authority, but the last thirty years have seen the publication of the monumental work of Messieurs Willis and Clark, and of the History of the University by Mr. J. Bass Mullinger, while at the same time the slighter literature of the subject has not been neglected. Nevertheless there is room, I hope, for a short book on the present lines. It is, I believe, the first time that a chapter on the women's colleges has anywhere appeared, and certainly the first time that such a chapter forms part of an account of the University. I have taken pains to authenticate the description here given, for events which occurred thirty--even twenty--years back are now fading out of remembrance and some of those who took part in them are no longer with us. A first and last chapter on the origin of universities and on the sister universities have been omitted for the purposes of this volume. The pleasantest part of my task still remains to be performed--to thank all those, both in and out of Cambridge, who have kindly afforded me facilities, have obtained information on innumerable points, or lightened my labours by lending books. In addition to this welcome assistance my thanks are specially due to Mr. J. Willis Clark, late fellow of Trinity, and Registrary of the University, for sparing time to read the proof sheets of Chapters I. and II.--for sparing time and not sparing trouble; to the Master of Peterhouse and to Dr. A. W. Verrall (fellow and late tutor of Trinity) for reading the proof sheets of portions of Chapter II. and portions of Chapter III.; to Mr. C. W. Moule fellow and librarian of Corpus Christi, Mr. Ellis H. Minns assistant-librarian, and late fellow, of Pembroke, to Miss M. G. Kennedy, and to the Mistress of Girton; to the Assistant Keeper of MSS. at the British Museum, and the Librarian at Lambeth; to Lord Francis Hervey and Sir Ernest Clarke who kindly supplied some annotated references to the school at Bury from the Curteys Register, and last but not least to the Rev. H. F. Stewart (chaplain of Trinity) and Mrs. Stewart, the former of whom has been good enough to read portions of the proof sheets of Chapter IV. For any opinions expressed I am, of course, alone responsible. M. A. R.

More than 160 objects will be on view, including paintings by Titian, Guercino, Rubens, Hals, Van Dyck, Hogarth, Delacroix, Renoir, and Degas, and drawings by Rembrandt, Annibale Carracci, Tiepolo, William Blake, and Puvis de Chavannes. A selection of illuminated manuscripts, ceramics, coins and medals, bronzes, and decorative arts will also be shown. The exhibition, organized by the Fitzwilliam and the National Gallery, will be displayed in the National Gallery's East Building, March 19 through June 18, 1989. The exhibition and its national tour are made possible by Philip Morris Companies Inc. "The Fitzwilliam Museum is perhaps Britain's pre-eminent small museum," said J. Carter Brown, director of the National Gallery of Art. "Like the British Museum, the Fitzwilliam addresses the history of culture in terms of the visual forms it has assumed, but it does so from the highly selective point of view of the collector-connoisseur. Works of art have been added to the museum's collection not only for the art historical information they reveal but for their beauty, excellent quality and rarity." (more) page two ..

ROBERTS, M.A. SOMETIME SCHOLAR OF PEMBROKE COLLEGE CAMBRIDGE AT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS 1921 [iv] [v] PREFACE As may be inferred from the title-page, this book has been written to mark the four hundredth anniversary of Cambridge printing. Of the original authorities used in its compilation the most valuable has been the large collection of documents relating to the Press which are preserved in the Registry of the University. Access to this collection has enabled me to glean some fresh information concerning the careers of the university printers and a series of accounts and vouchers from 1697 to 1742 has brought to light several new titles of books printed at Cambridge during that period. The making of this book, however, would not have been feasible, in the limited time at my disposal, had I not been free to use the work of the pioneers, from Christopher Wordsworth and Henry Bradshaw onwards, and the chief items of this work are recorded in the short bibliography on page xiii.

  • The Ferrar Family of Little Gidding C.1625-1637
    THE GOOD OLD WAY REVISITED: The Ferrar Family of Little Gidding c.1625-1637 Kate E. Riley, BA (Hons) This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia, School of Humanities, Discipline of History, 2007. ABSTRACT The Good Old Way Revisited: The Ferrar Family of Little Gidding c.1625-1637 The Ferrars are remembered as exemplars of Anglican piety. The London merchant family quit the city in 1625 and moved to the isolated manor of Little Gidding in Huntingdonshire. There they pursued a life of corporate devotion, supervised by the head of the household, Nicholas Ferrar, until he died in December 1637. To date, the life of the pious deacon Nicholas Ferrar has been the focus of histories of Little Gidding, which are conventionally hagiographical and give little consideration to the experiences of other members of the family, not least the many women in the household. Further, customary representations of the Ferrars have tended to remove them from their seventeenth-century context. Countering the biographical trend that has obscured many details of their communal life, this thesis provides a new, critical reading of the family’s years at Little Gidding while Nicholas Ferrar was alive. It examines the Ferrars in terms of their own time, as far as possible using contemporary documents instead of later accounts and confessional mythology. It shows that, while certain aspects of life at Little Gidding were unusual, on the whole the family was less exceptional than traditional histories have implied; certainly the family was not so unified and unworldly as the idealised images have suggested.

  • A Nursery in Residence at the Fitzwilliam
    A NURSERY IN RESIDENCE The Fitzwilliam Museum is the art and antiquities museum of the University of Cambridge. Cambridge University Botanic Garden (CUBG) holds a collection of over 8,000 plant species for teaching and research. Since its foundation, the Garden has also provided a beautiful place for everybody to enjoy and benefit from. Ace Nursery School is in central Cambridge caring for children from 2 1/2 years onwards. It was founded in 1966, and is run as a parent co-operative. The children invited to participate in the study were between their 3rd and 4th birthdays, and were attending the nursery either four or five days per week. Early Years toolkit Years Early SUMMARY In October 2017, nine children from Ace Nursery School spent five consecutive mornings in residence at The Fitzwilliam Museum and Cambridge University Botanic Garden. The residency formed the basis of a multi-disciplinary, practitioner-led research project by a team of museum, garden and nursery practitioners. Groups from this nursery had visited the museum previously for one off sessions, but we hoped that the residency would give us the opportunity to take time to observe and reflect on the encounters between young children, spaces and objects in the collections and to develop a better understanding of what the museum and garden can offer to young learners. Working in close collaboration was a key aspect of our research methodology and pedagogical practice. We are now planning to share and develop good practice within each of our settings and beyond. A typical day during the residency began in the education spaces of the museum or garden, with time to greet each other and an introduction using objects or children’s artworks from the previous day to connect back to previous activities, and to set the scene for the day ahead.

  • Prisons and Punishments in Late Medieval London
    Prisons and Punishments in Late Medieval London Christine Winter Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of London Royal Holloway, University of London, 2012 2 Declaration I, Christine Winter, hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. Signed: Date: 3 Abstract In the history of crime and punishment the prisons of medieval London have generally been overlooked. This may have been because none of the prison records have survived for this period, yet there is enough information in civic and royal documents, and through archaeological evidence, to allow a reassessment of London’s prisons in the later middle ages. This thesis begins with an analysis of the purpose of imprisonment, which was not merely custodial and was undoubtedly punitive in the medieval period. Having established that incarceration was employed for a variety of purposes the physicality of prison buildings and the conditions in which prisoners were kept are considered. This research suggests that the periodic complaints that London’s medieval prisons, particularly Newgate, were ‘foul’ with ‘noxious air’ were the result of external, rather than internal, factors. Using both civic and royal sources the management of prisons and the abuses inflicted by some keepers have been analysed. This has revealed that there were very few differences in the way civic and royal prisons were administered; however, there were distinct advantages to being either the keeper or a prisoner of the Fleet prison. Because incarceration was not the only penalty available in the enforcement of law and order, this thesis also considers the offences that constituted a misdemeanour and the various punishments employed by the authorities.

  • Pagan Survivals, Superstitions and Popular Cultures in Early Medieval Pastoral Literature
    Bernadette Filotas PAGAN SURVIVALS, SUPERSTITIONS AND POPULAR CULTURES IN EARLY MEDIEVAL PASTORAL LITERATURE Is medieval pastoral literature an accurate reflection of actual beliefs and practices in the early medieval West or simply of literary conventions in- herited by clerical writers? How and to what extent did Christianity and traditional pre-Christian beliefs and practices come into conflict, influence each other, and merge in popular culture? This comprehensive study examines early medieval popular culture as it appears in ecclesiastical and secular law, sermons, penitentials and other pastoral works – a selective, skewed, but still illuminating record of the be- liefs and practices of ordinary Christians. Concentrating on the five cen- turies from c. 500 to c. 1000, Pagan Survivals, Superstitions and Popular Cultures in Early Medieval Pastoral Literature presents the evidence for folk religious beliefs and piety, attitudes to nature and death, festivals, magic, drinking and alimentary customs. As such it provides a precious glimpse of the mu- tual adaptation of Christianity and traditional cultures at an important period of cultural and religious transition.
