  • Mark Burden, Academical Learning in the Dissenters' Private Academies

    1 ACADEMICAL LEARNING IN THE DISSENTERS’ PRIVATE ACADEMIES, 1660-1720 A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Mark Burden English Department Queen Mary, University of London 2012 2 Abstract Previous assessments of the early academies of Protestant dissenters in England and Wales (1660-1720) have celebrated their tutors’ achievements in defying the Act of Uniformity and the Test Acts, and have argued that they pioneered a modern curriculum. Despite these views, there has been little scholarly investigation into the academies. This thesis evaluates the available sources for the first time, examining the political, philosophical, and theological controversies in which the academies were involved, as well as examining the lives and careers of their tutors and students in greater detail than has hitherto been possible. The introduction explores the reception of the academies from the late seventeenth century until the present day, exposing the paucity of evidence and the abundance of polemic which have characterised previous accounts. Chapter 1 provides a detailed examination of academies operated by nonconformists prior to the Toleration Act, reassessing the contribution of ejected university tutors, surveying attempted prosecutions, and highlighting political controversies. The second chapter extends the narrative to academies run by Protestant dissenters from the Toleration Act (1689) to the repeal of the Schism Act (1719); it contains the first-ever detailed analysis of the minutes of the London-based denominational Fund Boards, and a survey of the careers of former academy students. Chapter 3 re-evaluates the teaching of philosophy in the dissenters’ earliest academies, using newly-identified manuscript works by tutors and students to explore the study of logic, natural philosophy, and ethics.

Trinity Hall – An Introduction Trinity Hall was founded by Bishop Bateman of Norwich in 1350, making it the fifth oldest surviving College of the University of Cambridge. Bishop Bateman originally founded the College to promote the study of canon and civil law, probably due to the shortage of clergymen and lawyers following the Black Death of 1349. To this day, the College maintains a very strong tradition in the study of Law. The current site of the College originated from the purchase of a house from John de Crauden, Prior of Ely, for the use of his monks during their period of study in Cambridge in the early 14th century.
  • AN INFORMAL GUIDE to PORTRAITS in TRINITY HALL Introduction

    AN INFORMAL GUIDE to PORTRAITS in TRINITY HALL Introduction

    PORTRAITS IN TRINITY HALL AN INFORMAL GUIDE TO PORTRAITS IN TRINITY HALL Introduction Nobody who has gone in and out of Cambridge colleges can miss the differences in atmosphere. Do college buildings shape the communities that live in them? Are we – the reader will forgive the pronoun, which is itself part of the mystery of college identity – what we are because of the configuration of our buildings? Do the walls convey a spirit which changes us and makes us behave in certain way? Whether the architecture explains it or not, each Cambridge college has a curious kind of personality. ‘Hall men and women’ know – though they rarely make that knowledge explicit – that ‘their college’ is the best and ‘the nicest’. It is “cosy” friendly, unpretentious and, in some mysterious way, welcoming. Several decades ago, a fomer Head Porter was irritated at the way the students and fellows chatted in the Porters’ Lodge and posted a note to remind undergraduates that the Porters’ Lodge was not the Junior Combination Room [Cambridge-Speak for ‘common room’] and that he would be obliged if they held their meetings elsewhere. Nobody took any notice and, as a wise and experienced Porter, he soon saw that the way students gathered in that space meant that Porters knew them well, could spot trouble and defuse it. I have heard two Porters and an undergraduate discussing her unexpectedly good Tripos results with every indication of genuine affection on the side of the Porters and pleasure at her success. So with these slightly diffuse introductory remarks, I welcome the reader to this guided tour of those who lived and worked here before our time and hope that both Trinity Hall members and visitors will find it entertaining to get to know the portraits and the persons whose faces stare at them from the walls.

    INDEX CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY LIBRARY MS Add. 9839 ALFRED NEWTON PAPERS Alfred Newton (1829-1907), ornithologist, Professor of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy, 1866-1907 2011 2 Add.9839 ALFRED NEWTON PAPERS Alfred Newton (1829-1907), ornithologist, was the fifth of six sons of William Newton, of Elveden Hall, Suffolk. His younger brother, Sir Edward Newton (1832-97), was a colonial administrator and ornithological collaborator. Newton entered Magdalene College, Cambridge, in 1848, and after graduation in 1853, he was elected to the Drury travelling fellowship, which gave him ten years of ornithological study. He visited northern Scandinavia in 1855 and Iceland in 1858, both in the company of ornithologist John Wolley, and travelled to the West Indies and North America in 1857, Madeira in 1862, and Spitzbergen in 1864. Newton played a leading part in founding the British Ornithologists‘ Union in 1858, and its journal Ibis, of which he was editor from 1865 to 1870. In 1866 he was elected the first Professor of Zoology and Comparative Anatomy at Cambridge, and held office until his death. He played a great part in building up his new department, expanded its zoological collections by presenting many of his own acquisitions, and its library by bequeathing his own library and papers, and was active in University affairs. Newton was a prolific but painstaking writer and editor. He wrote the article on ornithology in the 9th edition of Encyclopaedia Britannica, and a 4-volume Dictionary of birds (1893-96). His catalogue of the collection of eggs which John Wolley bequeathed to him in 1859, Ootheca Wolleyana, was published in four volumes in 1864, 1902, 1905 and 1907, and his meticulous revision of William Yarrell‘s British birds extended only to the first two volumes (1871, 1882), after which he handed over completion of the work to Howard Saunders.
