Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing
The UK Linguistics Olympiad 2018 Round 2 Problem 1 Hark the Heraldry Angels Sing Heraldry is the study of rank and heraldic arms, and there is a part which looks particularly at the way that coats-of-arms and shields are put together. The language for describing arms is known as blazon and derives many of its terms from French. The aim of blazon is to describe heraldic arms unambiguously and as concisely as possible. On the next page are some blazon descriptions that correspond to the shields (escutcheons) A-L. However, the descriptions and the shields are not in the same order. 1. Quarterly 1 & 4 checky vert and argent 2 & 3 argent three gouttes gules two one 2. Azure a bend sinister argent in dexter chief four roundels sable 3.

Heraldic Terms
HERALDIC TERMS The following terms, and their definitions, are used in heraldry. Some terms and practices were used in period real-world heraldry only. Some terms and practices are used in modern real-world heraldry only. Other terms and practices are used in SCA heraldry only. Most are used in both real-world and SCA heraldry. All are presented here as an aid to heraldic research and education. A LA CUISSE, A LA QUISE - at the thigh ABAISED, ABAISSÉ, ABASED - a charge or element depicted lower than its normal position ABATEMENTS - marks of disgrace placed on the shield of an offender of the law. There are extreme few records of such being employed, and then only noted in rolls. (As who would display their device if it had an abatement on it?) ABISME - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ABOUTÉ - end to end ABOVE - an ambiguous term which should be avoided in blazon. Generally, two charges one of which is above the other on the field can be blazoned better as "in pale an X and a Y" or "an A and in chief a B". See atop, ensigned. ABYSS - a minor charge in the center of the shield drawn smaller than usual ACCOLLÉ - (1) two shields side-by-side, sometimes united by their bottom tips overlapping or being connected to each other by their sides; (2) an animal with a crown, collar or other item around its neck; (3) keys, weapons or other implements placed saltirewise behind the shield in a heraldic display. -

On the Topology of Celtic Knot Designs
On the Topology of Celtic Knot Designs Gwen Fisher Mathematics Department California Polytechnic State University San Luis Obispo, CA 93407 [email protected] Blake Mellor Mathematics Department Loyola Marymount University Los Angeles, CA 90045-2659 [email protected] Abstract We derive formulas for counting the number of strands in a variety of knotwork designs inspired by traditional Celtic designs, including rectangular panels, circular borders, rectangular borders, and half frames. We include graphic examples for each of these types of designs. 1. Introduction There is a long tradition of abstract geometric designs in the art of the Celtic peoples of ancient Britain, Scotland and Ireland, including spirals, key patterns and, in the Christian era, knots and interlacings [1]. Complex knotwork patterns were used profusely in the Celtic illuminated manuscripts, such as in the Books of Durrow (early 5th to early 6th century), Kells (middle 6th to early 8th century), Lindesfarne (late 7th century), and Grimbald of St. Bertin (early 11th century). In these manuscripts, interlacing designs (both purely geometric, as in Figure 1, and incorporating animal figures) fill areas and are used as borders for text and illustrations. Françoise Henry called these designs a “sacred riddle” [7], and their symbolic meaning is a fascinating and unresolved issue in Celtic art history. James Trilling [10] has theorized that knotwork designs were, like the crosses that they commonly accompanied, protections against evil: the complex designs would trap and confuse the “evil eye”. Figure 1: A knotwork design, from [5] Whatever their meaning, the complexity of Celtic knotwork designs is evidence of substantial mathematical sophistication [4], and their design and analysis lead to many mathematical questions. -

General Introduction the Evergreen: a Northern Seasonal (1895- 1896/97)
GENERAL INTRODUCTION THE EVERGREEN: A NORTHERN SEASONAL (1895- 1896/97) “Four seasons fill the measure of the year; There are four seasons in the mind of man.” Epigraph to The Evergreen, from John Keats’s “The Human Seasons” Evergreen flyleaf ornament. Published as a semi-annual by Patrick Geddes & Colleagues in the Lawnmarket of Edinburgh and by T. Fisher Unwin in London, The Evergreen: A Northern Seasonal was produced out of interlacing connections as complex as those of the Celtic knot work it showcased. These include arts and crafts, Scottish Renascence, Pan-Celticism, and an urban renewal enhanced with what we would today call an ecological concern with nature and green space in the modern world. With local roots and international aspirations, The Evergreen sought to express a message of social regeneration by uniting art and science in the architecture of the page and the built environment. Expressed in Geddes’s triad of “sympathy, synergy, and synthesis,” this vision was embodied in the emblem of three flying black birds, each carrying a leaf in its beak, which decorated the openings of The Evergreen’s four volumes (Burbridge 73). As Regina Hewitt observes, Geddes conceptualized The Evergreen “as a resource for—and 1 perhaps even a manifesto of—cultural evolution” (“Patrick Geddes”). Although The Evergreen’s print run lasted less than two years, this innovative, interdisciplinary magazine had far-reaching impact. In his review for Pall Mall Magazine, Israel Zangwill highlighted the importance of the local and the social to this illustrated periodical. “’Till I went to Edinburgh,” he wrote, “I did not know what the ‘Evergreen’ was.
