  • Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography
    Coventry in the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography The Oxford Dictionary of National Biography is the national record of people who have shaped British history, worldwide, from the Romans to the 21st century. The Oxford DNB (ODNB) currently includes the life stories of over 60,000 men and women who died in or before 2017. Over 1,300 of those lives contain references to Coventry, whether of events, offices, institutions, people, places, or sources preserved there. Of these, over 160 men and women in ODNB were either born, baptized, educated, died, or buried there. Many more, of course, spent periods of their life in Coventry and left their mark on the city’s history and its built environment. This survey brings together over 300 lives in ODNB connected with Coventry, ranging over ten centuries, extracted using the advanced search ‘life event’ and ‘full text’ features on the online site (www.oxforddnb.com). The same search functions can be used to explore the biographical histories of other places in the Coventry region: Kenilworth produces references in 229 articles, including 44 key life events; Leamington, 235 and 95; and Nuneaton, 69 and 17, for example. Most public libraries across the UK subscribe to ODNB, which means that the complete dictionary can be accessed for free via a local library. Libraries also offer 'remote access' which makes it possible to log in at any time at home (or anywhere that has internet access). Elsewhere, the ODNB is available online in schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions worldwide.

  • SAANZ-Conference-Booklet-2016.Pdf
    Conference of the Sociological Association of Aotearoa New Zealand conference 22 to 24 November 2016 Hosted by Massey University Venue: East Pier Hotel, Napier, New Zealand (Cover art work: Fiona Clark, Massey University student) Welcome Dear conference attendee Welcome to the 2016 conference of the Sociological Association of Aotearoa New Zealand (SAANZ), hosted by Massey University. We sincerely hope that you enjoy this conference, and all that the conference venue – this year in Ahuriri, Napier - has to offer. If this is your first time attending a SAANZ conference then we would like to extend a particularly warm welcome to you. The conference this year has a very heartening number of students in attendance, making up around one third of the numbers overall. We also have a number of individuals that are not based in tertiary institutions; it is great to see interest in this conference stretching beyond academia. It is great to see all the familiar faces as well. We hope that everyone’s time here is interesting, pleasurable, motivating and productive. Finally, we would like to thank our sponsors: The Royal Society of New Zealand, the Sociology Association of New Zealand, and the School of People, Environment and Planning at Massey University. Yours sincerely, Conference organising committee If you have any urgent queries, please contact Corrina on 0278488659. Conference Theme Imagined futures: sociology, science and the arts Utopian hopes and dystopian fears surrounding scientific and technological solutions to human problems run deep. These are not new impulses and neither is their critique, by either sociological or other activist communities.

  • Enemy Or Ally? Senior Officials’ Perceptions of Ministerial Advisers Before and After MMP
    Enemy or ally? Senior officials’ perceptions of ministerial advisers before and after MMP (Eichbaum, C. and Shaw, R. 2006. ‘Enemy of Ally? Senior Officials’ Perceptions of Ministerial Advisers before and after MMP’, Political Science, 58(1): 3-23. Abstract There is now a well-established literature on the various second-order effects of the adoption of proportional representation in New Zealand. One feature of the contemporary executive landscape, however, remains substantially under- researched. This article reports on research regarding ministerial advisers in New Zealand Cabinet ministers’ offices. More specifically, it compares senior public servants’ current attitudes towards ministerial advisers with pre-MMP speculation regarding the possible future influence of such advisers. The article concludes that, while there are concerns about the possible long-term influence of political advisers, for the majority of senior officials, working relationships with ministerial advisers are positive and productive. Keywords ministerial advisers, MMP, politicisation, Cabinet, public service. Dr Chris Eichbaum, School of Government, Victoria University, Wellington ([email protected]). Chris Eichbaum is a Senior Lecturer in Public Policy at Victoria University’s School of Government. He has worked as a union official, a policy analyst in Canberra and Wellington, and a ministerial adviser in two New Zealand governments, most recently as Senior Adviser to the Hon. Steve Maharey (1999-2002) and as a Senior Policy Adviser in the Prime Minister’s Office (2002-2003). His research interests include the institutions of central banking, public sector governance, the roles and responsibilities of ministerial advisers, and contemporary social democratic politics and theory.

  • The Height of the Shaft, and in the Form of the Cross Upon the Apex Were Suggested
    182 LEICESTERSHIRE ARCHITECTURAL SOCIETY. the height of the shaft, and in the form of the cross upon the apex were suggested. Mr. Johnson also by way of explanation of his drawing contributed the following Paper upon TOWN CROSSES, which was, in his absence, read by Mr. North:— THE subject of "Town Crosses" is open to much enquiry. Without going very closely into the matter, I have found much to interest any one who takes pleasure in rambling amongst the relics of the past—not, however, so much from the erections themselves, as from the associations which are connected with them. They seem to divide themselves into three distinct heads or classes: Market Crosses, Memorial Crosses, and Town or Village Crosses. Of the antiquity of the first-named we have plenty of proof as far back as the thirteenth century, and I need only quote that in existence at Higham Ferrers, the capitals and mouldings of which are decidedly the work of that period. The form of the Market Cross is generally polygonal, with an open archway niche on two of its sides. The really good specimens to be found are few. More frequently, structures of a debased character, some sur­ mounted by a kind of dome, seem to have replaced the original ones. Evidently, the centre or the principal part of the town was used as the site of these erections, and some of the principal his­ torical events are connected with them. The illustrated descrip­ tions to be met with give but little idea of the style (there were no Le Keux or Jewitts in those early days) but the remains are curious, and from many of the occurrences which are depicted in manuscripts and other ancient works, being found in connection with the Town Crosses, it is clear that they were looked upon with a degree of importance, if not of veneration.

  • The Dissenting Tradition in English Medicine of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
    Medical History, 1995, 39: 197-218 The Dissenting Tradition in English Medicine of the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries WILLIAM BIRKEN* In England, medicine has always been something of a refuge for individuals whose lives have been dislocated by religious and political strife. This was particularly true in the seventeenth century when changes in Church and State were occurring at a blinding speed. In his book The experience of defeat, Christopher Hill has described the erratic careers of a number of radical clergy and intellectuals who studied and practised medicine in times of dislocation. A list pulled together from Hill's book would include: John Pordage, Samuel Pordage, Henry Stubbe, John Webster, John Rogers, Abiezer Coppe, William Walwyn and Marchamont Nedham.1 Medicine as a practical option for a lost career, or to supplement and subsidize uncertain careers, can also be found among Royalists and Anglicans when their lives were similarly disrupted during the Interregnum. Among these were the brilliant Vaughan twins, Thomas, the Hermetic philosopher, and Henry, the metaphysical poet and clergyman; the poet, Abraham Cowley; and the mercurial Nedham, who was dislocated both as a republican and as a royalist. The Anglicans Ralph Bathurst and Mathew Robinson were forced to abandon temporarily their clerical careers for medicine, only to return to the Church when times were more propitious. In the middle of the eighteenth century the political and religious disabilities of non-juring Anglicanism were still potent enough to impel Sir Richard Jebb to a successful medical career. But by and large the greatest impact on medicine came from the much larger group of the displaced, the English Dissenters, whose combination of religion and medicine were nothing short of remarkable.

  • Puritans and the Royal Society
    Faith and Thought A Journal devoted to the study of the inter-relation of the Christian revelation and modern research Vol. 92 Number 2 Winter 1961 C. E. A. TURNER, M.Sc., PH.D. Puritans and the Royal Society THE official programme of the recent tercentenary celebrations of the founding of the Royal Society included a single religious service. This was held at 10.30 a.m. at St Paul's Cathedral when the Dean, the Very Rev. W. R. Matthews, D.D., D.LITT., preached a sermon related to the building's architect, Sir Christopher Wren. Otherwise there seems to be little reference to the religious background of the Society's pioneers and a noticeable omission of appreciation of the considerable Puritan participation in its institution. The events connected with the Royal Society's foundation range over the period 1645 to 1663, but there were also earlier influences. One of these was Sir Francis Bacon, Lord Verulam, 1561-1626. Douglas McKie, Professor of the History and Philosophy of Science, University College, London, in The Times Special Number, 19 July 1960, states that Bacon's suggested academy called Solomon's House described in New Atlantis (1627) was too often assumed to be influential in the founding of the Royal Society, much in the same way as Bacon's method of induction, expounded in his Novum Organum of 1620, has been erroneously regarded as a factor in the rise of modern science. But this may be disputed, for Bacon enjoyed considerable prestige as a learned man and his works were widely read.

  • Trinity College Chapel, University of Oxford
    case study 12 Trinity College Chapel, University of Oxford 1691–4 College chapel Almost unaltered Architect: attributed to Henry Aldrich (1648–1710), in consultation with Sir Christopher Wren Only one building, Peckwater Quadrangle, Christ Church, Oxford is cer- tainly designed by Aldrich, but his contemporaries mention him as “an able judge in architecture.” At the time of his death he was compiling “Elementa Architecturae,” a treatise on civil and military architecture. Part of this was a study of the orders of Solomon’s Temple.1 He also persuaded Fairfax to make a translation of Palladio’s Antichità di Roma, published by the Clarendon Press in 1709. It is more than likely that he traveled to France and Italy where he had contacts with contemporary architects.2 Historical note Important building works were undertaken at Trinity College in the seven- teenth century by the president of the time, Ralph Bathurst (1620–1704). He was a good scholar and divine, though mainly interested in natural science. In 1688 he became the president of the Oxford branch of the Royal Society. The college’s popularity increased thanks to his intellectual and social qualifica- tions. The new buildings included the Wren quadrangle, inspired by French classicism. The building of a new chapel was a late, though very important part of this project. The medieval chapel had become “very homely, infirm and ruinous.” By the 1642 parliamentary visitation, the chapel had been readorned. President Ralph Kettell could persuade the parliamentary visitors that the paintings of the altars of Our Lady and St Catherine were by no means the 1 Henry Aldrich, Philip Smyth, transl., The Elements Of Civil Architecture: According To Vitruvius And Other Ancients, And The Most Approved Practice Of Modern Authors, Especially Palladio (London, 1789), 21.
