  • 1 Alec Vidler on Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye
    Alec Vidler On Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye, Sussex, son of a shipping businessman, Alec Vidler ( 1899‐1991)was educated at Sutton Valence School, Kent, read theology at Selwyn College, Cambridge (B.A. 1921),then trained for the Anglican ministry at Wells Theological College. He disliked Wells and transferred to the Oratory of the Good Shepherd, Cambridge, an Anglo‐Catholic community of celibates, and was ordained priest in 1923. He retained a life‐time affection for the celibate monkish life, never marrying but having a wide range of friends, including Malcolm Muggeridge, who was at Selwyn with him. Muggeridge’s father was a prominent Labourite and Vidler imbibed leftist sympathies in that circle. His first curacy was in Newcastle, working in the slums. He soon came to love his work with working class parishioners and was reluctantly transferred to St Aidan’s Birmingham, where he became involved in a celebrated stoush with the bishop E. W. Barnes, himself a controversialist of note. Vidler’s Anglo‐ Catholic approach to ritual clashed with Barnes’s evangelicalism. Vidler began a prolific career of publication in the 1920s and 30s. In 1931 he joined friends like Wilfred Ward at the Oratory House in Cambridge, steeping himself in religious history and theology, including that of Reinhold Niebuhr and “liberal Catholicism”. In 1939 Vidler became warden of St Deiniol’s Library, Hawarden (founded by a legacy from Gladstone) and also editor of the leading Anglican journal Theology, which he ran until 1964, exerting considerable progressive influence across those years. He also facilitated a number of religious think‐tanks in these, and later, years.

    RLHF Journal Vol.11 (2001/2) 3. Braehead Ironage Settlement — A Volunteer’s Tale Bruce Henry [First published in A Touch of GAS Autumn 2001] 1939 - the Luftwaffe take some aerial photos of Barclay Curle, Scotstoun, the docks and Renfrew - Braehead stands out clearly. 1950s - Dr. J. K. S. St Joseph takes further photos of the farmland to the west of King George V Dock. 1968 - the RAF take even more photos of the area. With all this photography going on something had to be found to justify it so in March 1973 the late Jack G. Scott started excavating a ditched enclosure identified from the air at Shiels Farm, soon to be developed as a whisky blending and bottling plant (a waste of good malt). He had a grand total of under 10 excavators, but he called in the first volunteers – always assuming the Luftwaffe and RAF used conscripts. By August 1974, the familiar team of students and volunteers had established sites of at least three round houses within the 45m (max) diameter oval ditch dating from the late Bronze/early Iron Age. Over a quarter of a century later, word got out that Ikea were planning to open a store at the Braehead shopping development. As the only substantial piece of land lay between the whisky bottling plant and the KGV Dock, close to Jack Scott’s enclosure, the aerial photographs were revisited. A vague outline of a possibly similar site was identified as worthy of further investigation. Then one evening in late 1999, when heading to a meeting of the Renfrewshire Local History Forum, Derek Alexander noticed that heaps of spoil had been dumped on the site.

  • Book Reviews the DOCTRINE of GRACE in the APOSTOLIC FATHERS
    Book Reviews THE DOCTRINE OF GRACE IN THE APOSTOLIC FATHERS. By T. F. Torrance. 15opp. Oliver <8- Boyd. 12/6. Probably all students of theology must have noticed the significant change in the understanding of the term ' grace ' from the time of the New Testament onwards. Perhaps, too, they will have wondered how and why it was that the evangelical Apostolic message degenerated so completely into the pseudo-Christianity of the Dark and Middle Ages. It is the aim of Dr. Torrance in his small but important dis­ sertation to supply an answer to both these problems. He does so by taking the word ' grace ' and comparing the Biblical usage with that of the accepted Fathers of the sub-Apostolic period : the Didache, I and II Clement, Ignatius, Polycarp, Barnabas, and the Shepherd of Hermas. The resultant study has a threefold value for the theologian. It has, first, a narrower linguistic and historical value as a contribution to the understanding of the conception of grace in the first hundred years or so of Christian theology. As the author himself makes clear in the useful Introduction, this question is not so simple as some readers might suppose, for the term grace had many meanings in Classical and Hellenistic Greek. It is important then to fix the exact con­ notation in the New Testament itself, and also to achieve an aware­ ness of any shift of understanding in the immediate post-Apostolic period. The exegetical discussions at the end of each chapter have a considerable value in the accomplishment of this task.

  • 50 Years of the Lovell Telescope Transcript
    50 years of the Lovell telescope Transcript Date: Wednesday, 5 December 2007 - 12:00AM 50 YEARS OF THE LOVELL TELESCOPE Professor Ian Morison The Early days at Jodrell Bank In late 1945 Dr Bernard Lovell (as he then was) returned to Manchester University after working on the development of radar during the war years. His aim was to continue his researches into cosmic rays - highly energetic particles that enter the Earth's atmosphere from outer space. He had the idea that sporadic echoes sometimes received by military radars might be the result of cosmic rays entering the atmosphere and thus radar observations might provide a new way to continue his researches. Radar observations were not practical in the centre of Manchester so he took his ex-army radar system out to the University's Botanical Grounds at Jodrell Bank, some 20 miles to the south. By the middle of December 1945, the system was operating and his team was soon able to prove that the echoes were coming not from cosmic rays but from ionized meteor trails left behind when small particles, released from comets, are burnt up in the upper atmosphere of the Earth. Radar Antenna in the Botany Grounds. The Jodrell Bank Experimental Station. The observations continued and, to house the expanding staff and equipment, the Jodrell Bank Experimental Station was built in the field next to the Botanic Grounds. Lovell realised that a much more sensitive radio telescope would be required to detect cosmic rays and so, in 1947, the researchers built a large parabolic reflector, 66-m across, pointing upwards to observe the sky passing overhead.
