Dean’s Diary Martyn Percy (1635 –1703), an English natural philosopher, architect and polymath, whose work Allan Chapman discusses in more detail on pages 32-33.In his early life, he had lacked the money for a decent education, but had somehow managed to take a course of twenty organ lessons. From this platform, he became an assistant to Dr Thomas Willis, a chemist. Through work with Willis, Hooke met Robert Boyle (helping to develop early air pumps), and later the architect, Christopher Wren. Hooke became curator of experiments of the Royal Society, Gresham Professor of Geometry and Surveyor to the City of London after the Great Fire of 1666, in which capacity he probably performed more than half of all the surveys after the fire.

    Annual Report from 1 August 2010

    6 Annual Report and Accounts 2014 - 15 Annual Report August 2014 - July 2015 Introduction Christ Church Cathedral was, as ever, full of exciting activities and events during 2014 - 15, the most significant of which was the appointment of a new Dean, Martyn Percy, who replaced Christopher Lewis on his retirement in September 2014 after eleven years at the helm. Martyn became the forty-sixth Dean of Christ Church since its establishment by Henry VIII in 1546. This year’s cover illustration features the summer 2014 art installation of paper pilgrims produced by Summerfield School pupils displayed in our 15th century watching loft, situated between the Latin Chapel and the Lady Chapel. Worship There are between three and six regular Cathedral services every day of the year. Our congregations are varied: supporting a core of regular worshippers are a significant number of tourists visiting Christ Church from around the world. The Cathedral’s informal Sunday evening reflective service, After Eight, continued throughout the Michaelmas and Hilary terms and covered a wide range of topics. These included ‘A Particular Place’, focusing on a location of special spiritual significance to each of four speakers, ‘Enduring War … Engaging with Peace’, addressing present day conflicts, and ‘When I needed a Neighbour’, a series of dialogues on Christian ministry at the margins of modern life. There were many special events and services among them the following: • Our new year was ushered in with a reminder of the First World War. The centenary of the outbreak

    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD

    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine.

No sustained examination and diagnosis of problems inherent to the relationship of Evangeli- calism with capitalism currently exists. Where assessments of the relationship have been un- dertaken, they are often built upon a lack of understanding of Evangelicalism, and an uncritical reliance both on Max Weber’s Protestant Work Ethic and on David Bebbington’s Quadrilateral of Evangelical priorities.

    Partbooks and the Music Collection Will Be Open from 12 May to 13 August 2016 in the Upper Library at Christ Church

    Tudor Partbooks and the Music Collection will be open from 12 May to 13 August 2016 in the Upper Library at Christ Church. The exhibition showcases the music-books used by singers in the age of Queen Elizabeth I, with special emphasis on partbooks. This is the result of a successful collaboration with the Tudor Partbooks Project (Oxford University, Faculty of Music) and the Oxford Early Music Festival. The exhibition is curated by Dr John Milsom and Dr Cristina Neagu. Visiting hours: Monday - Friday 10.00 am - 1.00 pm 2:00 pm - 4.30 pm (provided there is a member of staff available in the Upper Library). The new exhibition opened with a concert by Magnificat, featuring pieces from the Christ Church Music Collection. This is one of the world’s premier vocal ensembles, internationally acclaimed for its performance of Renaissance choral masterpieces. Concert programme Robert White Christe qui lux Lamentations William Byrd Come to me grief O that most rare breast Thomas Tallis Salvator mundi (II) Salvator mundi (I) The concert was followed by a talk by Dr John Milsom, leading Tudor music scholar, and a drinks reception in the Cathedral.

    Image and Influence: The Political Uses of Music at the Court of Elizabeth I Katherine Anne Butler Royal Holloway, University of London Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Acknowledgements With thanks to all the people who supported me throughout my research, especially: My supervisor, Stephen Rose, My advisors, Elizabeth Eva Leach and Anna Whitelock, The Arts and Humanities Research Council for funding this research, Royal Holloway Music Department for conference grants, My proofreaders, Holly Winterton, Sarah Beal, Janet McKnight and my Mum, My parents and my fiancé, Chris Wedge, for moral support and encouragement. Declaration of Authorship I, Katherine Butler, 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: ________________________ 2 Abstract In their Cantiones sacrae (1575), court musicians William Byrd and Thomas Tallis declared that ‘music is indispensable to the state’ (necessarium reipub.). Yet although the relationship between Elizabethan politics and literature has been studied often, there has been little research into the political functions of music. Most accounts of court music consist of documentary research into the personnel, institutions and performance occasions, and generally assume that music’s functions were limited to entertainment and displays of magnificence. However, Elizabethans believed that musical concord promoted a social harmony that would ease the process of government; hence politics and music were seen as closely connected. This thesis is an interdisciplinary investigation into the role of music in constructing royal and courtly identities and influencing Elizabeth’s policies and patronage.
