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. Per pale azure and gules on a chevron sable four roses argent a chief or 4. Per fess checky or and sable and azure overall a roundel counterchanged a bordure gules 5. Per chevron azure and vert overall a lozenge counterchanged in sinister chief a rose or 6. Quarterly azure and gules overall an escutcheon checky sable and argent 7. Vert on a fess sable three lozenges argent 8. Gules three annulets or one two impaling sable on a fess indented azure a rose argent 9. Argent a bend embattled between two lozenges sable 10. Per bend or and argent in sinister chief a cross crosslet sable 11. Gules a cross argent between four cross crosslets or on a chief sable three roses argent 12. Or three chevrons gules impaling or a cross gules on a bordure sable gouttes or On your answer sheet: (a) Match up the escutcheons A-L with their blazon descriptions. -

Guidelines for Heraldry 1
Guidelines for Heraldry 1 Coats of arms and other heraldic devices may occur in any section a Church Record, carved in stone or wood, engraved on silver, printed on bookplates or covers, adorning textiles, pictures, tiles or windows. Most Recorders will need expert help in order to blazon (ie to describe in proper terms) the arms correctly. Aim to record coats of arms accurately. Do what you can to identify the arms, making it quite clear whether the identification is correct or whether it is questionable and whether the bearer was indeed entitled to the arms displayed. Recording When recording armorial bearings always enlist the help of someone with knowledge of heraldry. Do not use heraldic terms or attempt blazoning until you have consulted a local expert (see list held by your Group Leader). Ask them to blazon the heraldry, sending a clear colour photograph of the arms (with SAE) or a digital image via email if they cannot visit the church. Acknowledge the expert’s assistance in the Record. You may have a shield or a crest only, a shield with crest, or a whole achievement, which has a helmet and draperies (mantling) between shield and crest, and perhaps supporters at the sides, a motto beneath, occasionally the insignia of an order. See illustration in Inside Churches, Heraldry section. Often a shield will show the arms of two families side by side, those on the dexter (left hand for the viewer) being the husband’s arms impaling the arms of his wife on the sinister (right hand for the viewer). -

This Lent Term has seen a succession of highly successful talks with unusually high levels of attendance. The dedication of some of our members is enormous: at a recent meeting, people had travelled from as far a field as Loughborough, Bury St Edmunds, Guildford and Brighton, and the Annual Dinner will see attendance from throughout the United Kingdom and beyond. Next term brings with it the Annual General Meeting on Saturday, 2 nd May, 1998. The Agenda and official notification are supplied in this issue of The Escutcheon, and I invite members to submit any points for discussion either in advance or at the meeting. Several posts on the Committee will become vacant this year, and I warmly invite nominations for the posts of President, Secretary and Junior Treasurer, as well as for University and Town Committee members . I gather from Nicholas Rogers that the Society's Library has received very little use so far. I recommend that you all at least inspect it at some point, preferably arranging a time beforehand by telephone (3)38824 or e-mail : [email protected].

Heraldry in Game of Thrones
genealogy Article The Shields that Guard the Realms of Men: Heraldry in Game of Thrones Mat Hardy School of Humanities & Social Sciences, Faculty of Arts & Education, Deakin University, Burwood 3125, Australia; [email protected] Received: 12 October 2018; Accepted: 6 November 2018; Published: 12 November 2018 Abstract: The vast popularity of the Game of Thrones franchise has drawn a new and diverse audience to the fantasy genre. Within the pseudo-medieval world created by G.R.R. Martin, a great deal of detail has gone into establishing coats of arms for the characters and families that are depicted. These arms fulfill an extremely important role, both within the arc of the story and as part of the marketing collateral of this very successful series. This article examines the role of arms in the Game of Thrones universe and explores how the heraldic system transcends the usual genealogical display and functions more as a type of familial branding. An exploration of some of the practices and idiosyncrasies of heraldry in the franchise shows that whilst Martin sets his foundation firmly in the traditional, he then extends this into the fanciful; in much the same manner as he does with other faux-historical aspects of his work. This study is valuable because Game of Thrones has brought heraldry from being a niche interest to something that is now consumed by a global audience of hundreds of millions of people. Several of the fantasy blazons in the series are now arguably the most recognisable coats of arms in history. Keywords: Game of Thrones; A Song of Ice and Fire; heraldry; blazonry; fantasy; G.R.R. -

Resume Tabard Based on the Wappenbuch of Anton Tirol
Resume Tabard Based on the Wappenbuch of Anton Tirol Herald Anton Tirol wearing a resume tabard his the Wappenbuch (http://codicon.digitale-sammlungen.de/Blatt_bsb00001649,46r.html) Brian O’hUilliam Basis of the Tabard This tabard is an adaptation of two tabards found in the Armorial (Wappenbuch) of Anton Tirol of 1540. The illumination shows the herald, Tyrol himself, wearing a poncho-like tabard unlike those traditionally seen. Most tabards are square on the bottom, while this one comes to a drastic point, and most tabards have defined sleeves, while this one does not have any discernible sleeves, but continues to drape over the arm. (Neubecker 18) (Bavarian State Library) Neubecker describes this herald as a “freelance” herald, meaning he is not currently employed by a particular patron (18). As such, the tabard is covered with escutcheons bearing simple designs. These tabards have come to be called, in the SCA at least, “resume tabards” as the various escutcheons act like a “visual resume.” There is some question as to whether the arms shown on the tabard were of previous masters who employed that herald, thus making it truly a visual resume, or if they were just random designs showing the wearer to be a herald available for hire. The example of Anton Tirol used as the basis of this tabard includes actual arms seen in that same armorial (Bavarian State Libarary). It is presumed that the herald had, at some point, heralded for those individuals and included their arms on the tabard to show his experience so another noble would hire him.
