    Engagement with the communities of Oxford and Oxfordshire Did you know? St Giles’ Fair began as the parish feast of St Giles, first recorded in 1624. From the 1780s it became a toy fair, with general amusements for children. In the next century its focus shifted towards adults, with entertainment, rides and stalls. In the late 1800s there were calls for the fair to be stopped on the grounds that it encouraged rowdy behaviour. During Victorian times engineering advances brought the forerunners of today’s rides. Today the huge pieces of machinery fill St Giles’ with sparkling lights for a few days each year, and whizz within feet of ancient college buildings. The stone heads around the Sheldonian Theatre now number thirteen (there were originally fourteen, but one was removed to make way for the adjoining Clarendon Building.) It is not known what they were intended to represent – they might be gods, wise men, emperors or just boundary markers. The original heads were made by William Byrd and put up in 1669.

  • 1 What to See at Christ Church
    What to See at Christ Church : A Short Tour Christ Church is an essential element in any visit to Oxford. Two of its famous landmarks, Tom Tower, by Christopher Wren, and Oxford’s Cathedral spire, define the city’s celebrated skyline and mark Christ Church as a unique dual foundation: one of Oxford University's largest colleges and the cathedral church for the diocese of Oxford. The following tour will provide those visiting Christ Church with more information about its community and history. Beginning in the tranquil landscape of Christ Church Meadow, the tour will move through the college in the footsteps of great minds, royalty, poets, prime ministers, a little girl called Alice and even the odd wizard! Gaze upon the beautiful buildings, elegant quadrangles and vibrant stained glass windows and gain an insight into the rich history of an Oxford college and cathedral. The tour has been designed to accompany a visit to Christ Church but if you should need more information feel free to approach the bowler-hatted custodians or one of the cathedral stewards with any queries that should arise. The Meadow Christ Church Meadow is a rare open space at the heart of Oxford, open to the public all year round. Though seemingly tranquil, the meadow is highly variable, with seasonal flooding and a variety of wildlife that comes and goes. During the Civil War it proved invaluable as a defence against the Parliamentarian forces, but visitors are nowadays more likely to encounter a rare English Longhorn cow than a soldier besieging the city. The meadow has long been used as a site for sport, entertainment and recreation.

  • The Prehistory of Chinese Music Theory
    ELSLEY ZEITLYN LECTURE ON CHINESE ARCHAEOLOGY AND CULTURE The Prehistory of Chinese Music Theory ROBERT BAGLEY Princeton University The division of the octave into twelve semitones and the transposition of scales have also been discovered by this intelligent and skillful nation. But the melodies transcribed by travellers mostly belong to the scale of five notes. Helmholtz, On the Sensations of Tone (1863)1 THE EARLIEST TEXTS ABOUT MUSIC THEORY presently known from China are inscriptions on musical instruments found in the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng, the ruler of a small state in the middle Yangzi region, who died in 433 BC. Excavated in 1978, the tomb was an underground palace of sorts, a timber structure furnished with an astonishing array of lordly posses- sions (Fig. 1).2 In two of its four chambers the instruments of two distinct musical ensembles were found. Beside the marquis’s coffin in the east chamber was a small ensemble for informal entertainments, music for the royal bedchamber perhaps, consisting of two mouth organs, seven zithers, and a small drum. In the central chamber, shown under excavation in Figure 2, a much larger ensemble for banquets and rituals was found. Composed of winds, strings, drums, a set of chime stones, and a set of bells, it required more than twenty performers. The inscriptions about music theory appear on the chime stones and the bells. They concern Read at the Academy on 26 October 2004. 1 Quoted from Alexander Ellis’s 1885 translation (p. 258) of the fourth German edition (1877). 2 The excavation report, in Chinese, is Zeng Hou Yi mu (1989).
