  • Imagereal Capture
    113 The Law of Arms in New Zealand: A Response Gregor Macaulay* :Noel Cox has written that "Ifany laws of arms were inherited by New Zealand, it 'was the Law of Arms of England, in 1840",1 and that in England and l'Jew Zealand today "the Law of Arms is the same in each jurisdiction",2 The statements cannot both be true; each is individually mistaken; and the English la~N of arms is in any case unworkable in New Zealand. In England, the laws of arms may be defined as the law governing "the use of anms, crests, supporters and other armorial insignia [which] is to be found in the customs and usages of the [English] Court ofChivalry",3 "augmented either by rulings of the [English] kings of arms or by warrants from the Earl Marshal [of England]".4 There are several standard reference books in English heraldry, but not even one revised and edited by a herald may, in his own words, be considered "authoritative in any official sense",5 and a definitive volume detailing the law of arms of England has never been published. A basic difficulty exists, therefore, in knowing precisely what the content of the law is that is being discussed. Even in England there are some extraordinary lacunae. For instance, the English heralds seem not to know who may legally inherit heraldic badges.6 If the English law of arms of 1840 had been inherited by New Zealand it would have come within the ambit of the English Laws Act 1858 (succeeded by the English Laws Act 1908).

  • A Practical Guide to Petitioning for a Grant of Arms’
    Welcome to Version 1.2 (20th September 2016) A Practical Guide to Petitioning for By Paul D Jagger a Grant of Arms 1 Welcome to ‘A Practical Guide to Petitioning for a Grant of Arms’. These materials support a face-to-face workshop on the subjects of heraldry and petitioning the Crown for arms in the Commonwealth realms, Crown Dependencies and Territories. For the sake of simplicity the following slides focus on the heraldic practices of HM College of Arms in the City of London covering England, Wales, Norther Ireland, the Crown Dependencies, Territories and the Commonwealth Realms other than Canada. Scotland has enjoyed its own heraldic authority since before the union of the crowns. Agenda An Introduction to Heraldry Petitioning for arms Displaying arms Preparing your petition Frequently Asked Questions Further reading and resources 2 Heraldry: An Introduction 3 We will now explore some of the concepts and terminology of heraldry, the law of arms and gain a brief insight in to blazon, the language of heraldry. The photo was taken by the author in the great hall at Queens’ College, Cambridge. Heraldic Myths Busted There is no such thing as a coat of arms for a surname The words crest, badge and coat of arms are not synonymous There are no fixed meaning for colours or symbols in heraldry You cannot buy your family coat of arms from a tourist shop or website You don’t have to be a Lord or a Knight to be granted arms 4 Before we proceed with the substance of this workshop it may be helpful to dispel a few common myths and misconceptions about heraldry and coats of arms.

I am especially grateful to the Duke of Norfolk and his archivists for giving me access to material in his possession. The staff of many other archives and libraries have been extremely helpful in answering detailed enquiries and helping me to locate documents, and / regret that it is not possible to acknowledge them individually. I am grateful to my supervisor, Peter Heath, for his patience, understanding and willingness to read endless drafts over the years in which this study has evolved. Others, too, have contributed much. Members of the Russell/Starkey seminar group at the Institute of Historical Research, and the Late Medieval seminar group at the University of Kent made helpful comments on a paper, and I have benefitted from suggestions, discussion, references and encouragement from many others, particularly: Neil Samman, Maria Dowling, Peter Gwynn, George Bernard, Greg Walker and Diarmaid MacCulloch. I am particularly grateful to several people who took the trouble to read and comment on drafts of various chapters. Margaret Condon and Anne Crawford commented on a draft of the first chapter, Carole Rawcliffe and Linda Clerk on my analysis of Norfolk's estate accounts, Steven Ellis on my chapters on Surrey in Ireland and in the north of England, and Roger Virgoe on much of the thesis, including all the East Anglian material.

  • In Tl1e Lordship Oflreland, 1171~1265
    'Divid_e and Rule': Factionalislm as Royal Policy in tl1e Lordship oflreland, 1171~1265 Peter Crooks Abstract. Faction and consequent violence are characteristic of lordship in medieval Europe and like societies elsewhere, especially when the centrai power is weak or remote. The question is whether English kings and their servitors attempted to curb the violent tendencies of their subjects or rather exploited factionalisrn to rnanage their barons and prevent the rise of 'over-mighty' subjects. Here the late twelfth and first half of the thirteenth centuries are closely exarnined. The conclusion is that English kings did indeed use faction to manipulate their barons. Key words: conquest, faction, baronage, barons' wars, Henry II, king John, Henry III, Strongbow, de Lacy, de Burgh, de Braose, Marshal, Butler, U1 Chonchobair, Connacht, Geraldines, de Montfort. Peter Crooks, cio Centre for Medieval History, Trinity College, Dublin crooksp @te d. ie Peritia 19 (2005) 263-307 ISBN 978-2-503-51576-2 The adventurers who sailed across the Irish Sea in great numbers from the late 1160s seeking land and fortune in Ireland could not, perhaps, afford to be the most genial of men. Ambition may have been the motor of conquest, but it would not have taken them far had it not been backed up by a certain flintiness of character, great tenacity, and a willingness to use violence and withstand fierce reprisals. 1 These were possibly the attributes that one of the pioneers of the inva­ sion, Maurice fitz Gerald (tl176), sought from his men when, besieged in Dublin, he reminded them: 'Fellow soldiers, it is not a call to luxury and ease that has brought us to this land' .2 The principal narrative sources o n the invasi o n l.

No. copY a. 1 Brothers, Limited. Copyright, 1901, by Harmsworth All rights reserved. November, igoi. PREFACE A PREFACE is an old-fashioned thing, we are told, and yet modern publishers repeat the demand made by their brethren of Queen Victoria's early days, and declare that one is wanted. If this be so, I am glad to take the opportunity thus given to me to thank the publishers for the quickness and completeness with which the matter printed in the following pages was issued. Nowadays there are so many able writers in the field of literary activity writing volumes, or ar- ticles in the newspapers or magazines, that very rapid work is necessary if a man desires to impress readers with his views of a character or of an event, before the public have listened to others. The long waiting, pondering, collating, and weighing, fit for the final labor of the historian, is impossible to him who rapidly sketches in his subject for the eyes of the genera- tion which desires an immediate survey of the imme- diate past. We may deplore the fact that great themes cannot thus be worthily treated. The facts that are already public are alone those that may be dwelt upon.
