  • “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil”
    “Powerful Arms and Fertile Soil” English Identity and the Law of Arms in Early Modern England Claire Renée Kennedy A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History and Philosophy of Science University of Sydney 2017 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My greatest thanks and appreciation to Ofer Gal, who supervised my PhD with constant interest, insightfulness and support. This thesis owes so much to his helpful conversation and encouraging supervision and guidance. I have benefitted immensely from the suggestions and criticisms of my examiners, John Sutton, Nick Wilding, and Anthony Grafton, to whom I owe a particular debt. Grafton’s suggestion during the very early stages of my candidature that the quarrel between William Camden and Ralph Brooke might provide a promising avenue for research provided much inspiration for the larger project. I am greatly indebted to the staff in the Unit for History and Philosophy of Science: in particular, Hans Pols for his unwavering support and encouragement; Daniela Helbig, for providing some much-needed motivation during the home-stretch; and Debbie Castle, for her encouraging and reassuring presence. I have benefitted immensely from conversations with friends, in and outside the Unit for HPS. This includes, (but is not limited to): Megan Baumhammer, Sahar Tavakoli, Ian Lawson, Nick Bozic, Gemma Lucy Smart, Georg Repnikov, Anson Fehross, Caitrin Donovan, Stefan Gawronski, Angus Cornwell, Brenda Rosales and Carrie Hardie. My particular thanks to Kathryn Ticehurst and Laura Sumrall, for their willingness to read drafts, to listen, and to help me clarify my thoughts and ideas. My thanks also to the Centre for Editing Lives and Letters, University College London, and the History of Science Program, Princeton University, where I benefitted from spending time as a visiting research student.

    Black Mountains History Short pieces from the Llanthony History Group 2020 2 LV&DHG was formed in 2015 with seed corn funding from the Landmark Trust, as part its Heritage Lottery Funding for the restoration of Llwyn Celyn. We are a working group for people interested in the history of the Llanthony Valley, and the adjacent area of the Black Mountains in South Wales. The Group organises regular evening meetings in Cwmyoy Memorial Hall throughout the winter; and runs a series of historical walks and explorations for members in the summer. Committee 2020-21 Chairman: Douglas Wright Secretary: Pip Bevan Treasurer: Oliver Fairclough Events: Rosemary Russell Research: Pip Bevan Publications: Oliver Fairclough Publicity: Caroline Fairclough Members: Edith Davies Andrea Ellaway Colette Miles Judith Morgan Jenny Parry Rita Tait.
