  • Index to Plum Lines 1980–2020
    INDEX TO PLUM LINES 1980–2020 Guide to the Index: While there are all sorts of rules and guidelines on the subject of indexing, virtually none can be applied to the formidable task of indexing Plum Lines (and its predecessor, Comments in Passing), the quarterly journal of The Wodehouse Society, which was founded in 1980. Too many variables confront the task’s indexer—not to mention a few too many errors in how issues were numbered over the years (see Index to the Index, below). Consequently, a new sort of index has been created in such a way (we hope) as to make it as easy as possible to use. Following are some guidelines. 1. Finding what you want: Whatever you are looking for, it should be possible to find it using our handy-dandy system of cross-referencing: • SUBJECTS are in BOLD CAPS followed by a list of the relevant articles. (See the list of Subject Headings, below.) • Authors and Contributors (note that some articles have both an author and a contributor) are listed in uppercase-lowercase bold, last name first, with a list of articles following the name. • Regular columns are simply listed in bold under their own titles rather than under a subject heading. 2. Locating the listed article: Any article listed in the index is followed by a series of numbers indicating its volume number, issue number, and page number. For example, one can find articles on Across the pale parabola: 14.2.17; 15.4.13 in Volume 14, Number 2, Page 17 and Volume 15, Number 4, Page 13.

  • Index to Wooster Sauceand by The
    Index to Wooster Sauce and By The Way 1997–2020 Guide to this Index This index covers all issues of Wooster Sauce and By The Way published since The P G Wodehouse Society (UK) was founded in 1997. It does not include the special supplements that were produced as Christmas bonuses for renewing members of the Society. (These were the Kid Brady Stories (seven instalments), The Swoop (seven instalments), and the original ending of Leave It to Psmith.) It is a very general index, in that it covers authors and subjects of published articles, but not details of article contents. (For example, the author Will Cuppy (a contemporary of PGW’s) is mentioned in several articles but is only included in the index when an article is specifically about him.) The index is divided into three sections: I. Wooster Sauce and By The Way Subject Index Page 1 II. Wooster Sauce and By The Way Author Index Page 34 III. By The Way Issues in Number Order Page 52 In the two indexes, the subject or author (given in bold print) is followed by the title of the article; then, in bold, either the issue and page number, separated by a dash (for Wooster Sauce); or ‘BTW’ and its issue number, again separated by a dash. For example, 1-1 is Wooster Sauce issue 1, page 1; 20-12 is issue 20, page 12; BTW-5 is By The Way issue 5; and so on. See the table on the next page for the dates of each Wooster Sauce issue number, as well as any special supplements.

  • Urban Geology in London's Theatreland: St Martin's Lane to Shaftesbury Avenue R
    Urban Geology in London No. 31 Urban Geology in London’s Theatreland: St Martin’s Lane to Shaftesbury Avenue Ruth Siddall This walk takes us along St Martins Lane and Shaftesbury Avenue to St Giles, near the intersection of Tottenham Court Road and Oxford Street. There are a fine selection of buildings in this area, serving London’s Theatreland; churches, restaurants and of course theatres are found amongst pubs, shops and gentlemen’s clubs. Those with interesting building stones are described below. Architectural notes are from Pevsner (Bradley & Pevsner, 2005; Cherry & Pevsner, 1998) unless otherwise cited. This walk begins at the church of St Martin’s-in-the-Fields at the north end of Trafalgar Square. The nearest tube station is Charing Cross, and a number of buses stop on the east side of Trafalgar Square, near to the church. St Martin-in-the-Fields The 18th Century church of St Martin-in-the-Fields dominates Trafalgar Square. A church of this name has stood on this site since the late 12th Century. However the current building (aBove) was Built Between 1721-6 By architect James GiBBs. At the time, the design was revolutionary, with the prominent, pedimented portico across the west front, and the steeple rising to a height of 58.5 m above the entrance to the church. The design was revolutionary and much copied in the UK, but also notably also in the USA. St Martin-in-the-Fields has recently (2008) undergone a major restoration, led by Eric Parry Architects with stone conservators Stonewest. The fruits of these laBours are mainly oBserved in the interior where Early Cretaceous Purbeck and Lower Jurassic Blue Lias Limestones have Been used for paving.
