Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography
Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is the national record of people who have shaped British history, worldwide, from the Romans to the 21st century. The Oxford DNB (ODNB) currently includes the life stories of over 60,000 men and women who died in or before 2017. Over 1,300 of those lives contain references to Coventry, whether of events, offices, institutions, people, places, or sources preserved there. Of these, over 160 men and women in ODNB were either born, baptized, educated, died, or buried there. Many more, of course, spent periods of their life in Coventry and left their mark on the city’s history and its built environment. This survey brings together over 300 lives in ODNB connected with Coventry, ranging over ten centuries, extracted using the advanced search ‘life event’ and ‘full text’ features on the online site (www.oxforddnb.com). The same search functions can be used to explore the biographical histories of other places in the Coventry region: Kenilworth produces references in 229 articles, including 44 key life events; Leamington, 235 and 95; and Nuneaton, 69 and 17, for example. Most public libraries across the UK subscribe to ODNB, which means that the complete dictionary can be accessed for free via a local library. Libraries also offer 'remote access' which makes it possible to log in at any time at home (or anywhere that has internet access). Elsewhere, the ODNB is available online in schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions worldwide.

Classification of Candidates
LONDON ELECTORAL HISTORY – STEPS TOWARDS DEMOCRACY 7.2 CANDIDATES AND THE CLASSIFICATION OF VOTING BEHAVIOUR The key endeavour of much electoral analysis is to determine what kind of voter polled for what kind of candidate. The historian of the pre- reform electorate is fortunate in this respect in being able to know much more about almost every candidate1 than at any time before the contemporary period.2 Nomination of candidates took place at the hustings, immediately prior to the call for a show of hands by the returning officer. Some who may have sought election nonetheless withdrew from the contest, either following a disappointing canvass or following the show of hands. For the purposes of the LED only those who carried on to the next stage of the electoral process, in eighteenth-century parlance those who ‘stood the poll’, are deemed to have been candidates. Of those who stood the poll, some withdrew during the course of polling. Sometimes this would terminate the election, as when John Graham withdrew from the Westminster election of 1802, or when William Mellish withdrew from the Middlesex contest of 1820. In other cases the withdrawal of a candidate allowed others to continue the contest, although there was no mechanism for re-allocating those votes already given to the candidate who threw in the towel. Thus the withdrawal of William Pitt from the London election of 1784, after he had been nominated for a popular but uncertain seat without his consent, did not preclude a continuation of the contest between the remaining candidates. Even the death of John Hankey, the fifth candidate in the London contest of 1807, did not cause the poll to be terminated. -

THE ENDOWMENT FUND. The attention of members of the Society is again called to the urgent need for an adequate endowment fund. Our pos- sessions are wonderful, but lack of means has prevented their proper exploitation, so that they are largely inaccessible to students. Rare items of Maryland interest frequently escape us because no funds are available for their purchase. A largely increased sustaining membership will help somewhat, but an endowment is a fundamental need. Legacies are of course wel- comed, but present-day subscriptions will bring immediate results.

Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives Submission on The
Wards for Communities Hackney Conservatives submission on the new electoral arrangements for London Borough of Hackney September 2012 1 1. The Commission's draft proposal was published in July 2012 and we are supportive of its proposals to retain 57 Councillors for the London Borough of Hackney. A mayoral form of local government does not require less scrutiny, it requires more as power is more centralised than in other forms of government. 2. We oppose the basis of the review as we believe that the data supplied by Hackney Council in predicting future electoral growth is faulty and underestimates the growth in the population in the North East of the Borough. 3. Should a new scheme of wards be required, however, we are broadly supportive of many parts of the Commission's draft proposals but think it can be enhanced to: Aim for greater electoral equality; 4. The range of variances from the average of the Commissions proposals is for 2011 go from -9% for Haggerston to +8% for Stamford Hill East and for 2017 -9% for Haggerston and +9% for Brownswood. We think it to be ill advised to have a scheme that widens over time and pushes ward sizes so close to the tolerance level for triggering another review. We have, therefore, prepared an amendment that would provide for a 2011 range of -8% (New River) to +8% (Victoria) closing in 2017 to -5% (Springfield) and +6% (manor House). Recognise communities; 5. Some of the proposals have retained divisions which this review should have attempted to fix. Putting local community centres such as Chatsworth Road, Well Street and Wilton Way at the middle of wards as the basis for reorganisation would help their nascent renaissance. -
Appendix B Introduction 1. This Appendix Sets out How The
Appendix B Introduction 1. This appendix sets out how the proposed warding scheme addresses the second and third of the Boundary Commission’s three statutory criteria for local government electoral reviews: the need to secure equality of representation; the need to reflect the identities and interests of local communities; and the need to secure effective and convenient local government. 2. Hackney’s diverse mix of people from different backgrounds gives it the third greatest degree of ethnic diversity, and the fifth greatest degree of religious diversity amongst local authorities in England and Wales. Ethnic and religious groups are widely dispersed across the borough. The one exception to this is the Orthodox Jewish/Charedi community in the Stamford Hill area, which is noticeably more concentrated than other groups. 3. Nearly three in five Hackney residents say they feel they belong either fairly or very strongly to their local neighbourhood (57%). This compares well to the London average of 52%. Many people feel they ‘belong’ in many different ways – to a small local area or estate, to one of Hackney’s distinctive sub-localities (source: Hackney Cohesion Review, published July 2010). 4. Our approach has been to seek to strengthen this identification with local areas through their reflection in the proposed warding arrangements, including retaining existing wards where possible, while correcting some known anomalies, for example where a small part of a housing estate falls in a different ward to the majority of the estate. 5. The fundamental problem that we have had to address is the imbalance between the south west of the borough and the north. -

CORPORATE REUNION: a NINETEENTH- CENTURY DILEMMA VINCENT ALAN Mcclelland University of Hull
CORPORATE REUNION: A NINETEENTH- CENTURY DILEMMA VINCENT ALAN McCLELLAND University of Hull EFORE THE ADVENT of the Oxford Movement in 1833 and before the B young converts George Spencer and Ambrose Phillipps had, shortly before his death, enlisted the powerful support and encouragement of the aristocratic Louis de Quelin, Archbishop of Paris,1 in the establishment in 1838 of an Association of Prayers for the Conversion of England, the matter of the reunion of a divided Christendom had greatly engaged the attention of Anglican divines. Indeed, as Brandreth in his study of the ecumenical ideals of the Oxford Movement has pointed out, "there is scarcely a generation [in the history of the Church of England] from the time of the Reformation to our own day which has not caught, whether perfectly or imperfectly, the vision of a united Christendom."2 The most learned of Jacobean divines, Lancelot Andrewes, Bishop of Winchester under James I, regularly interceded "for the Universal Church, its confir mation and growth; for the Western Church, its restoration and pacifi cation; for the Church of Great Britain, the setting in order of the things that are wanting in it and the strengthening of the things that remain".3 In the anxiety to locate the needs of the national church within the context of the Church Universal, Andrewes was followed by a host of Carolingian divines and Settlement nonjurors, themselves the harbingers of that Anglo-Catholic spirit which gave life, albeit by means of a prolonged and painful Caesarian section, to the vibrant Tractarian quest for ecclesial justification.
