  • Modern Hong Kong
    Modern Hong Kong Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Asian History Modern Hong Kong Steve Tsang Subject: China, Hong Kong, Macao, and/or Taiwan Online Publication Date: Feb 2017 DOI: 10.1093/acrefore/9780190277727.013.280 Abstract and Keywords Hong Kong entered its modern era when it became a British overseas territory in 1841. In its early years as a Crown Colony, it suffered from corruption and racial segregation but grew rapidly as a free port that supported trade with China. It took about two decades before Hong Kong established a genuinely independent judiciary and introduced the Cadet Scheme to select and train senior officials, which dramatically improved the quality of governance. Until the Pacific War (1941–1945), the colonial government focused its attention and resources on the small expatriate community and largely left the overwhelming majority of the population, the Chinese community, to manage themselves, through voluntary organizations such as the Tung Wah Group of Hospitals. The 1940s was a watershed decade in Hong Kong’s history. The fall of Hong Kong and other European colonies to the Japanese at the start of the Pacific War shattered the myth of the superiority of white men and the invincibility of the British Empire. When the war ended the British realized that they could not restore the status quo ante. They thus put an end to racial segregation, removed the glass ceiling that prevented a Chinese person from becoming a Cadet or Administrative Officer or rising to become the Senior Member of the Legislative or the Executive Council, and looked into the possibility of introducing municipal self-government.

  • Download the Annual Review PDF 2016-17
    Annual Review 2016/17 Pushing at the frontiers of Knowledge Portrait of Dr Henry Odili Nwume (Brasenose) by Sarah Jane Moon – see The Full Picture, page 17. FOREWORD 2016/17 has been a memorable year for the country and for our University. In the ever-changing and deeply uncertain world around us, the University of Oxford continues to attract the most talented students and the most talented academics from across the globe. They convene here, as they have always done, to learn, to push at the frontiers of knowledge and to improve the world in which we find ourselves. One of the highlights of the past twelve months was that for the second consecutive year we were named the top university in the world by the Times Higher Education Global Rankings. While it is reasonable to be sceptical of the precise placements in these rankings, it is incontrovertible that we are universally acknowledged to be one of the greatest universities in the world. This is a privilege, a responsibility and a challenge. Other highlights include the opening of the world’s largest health big data institute, the Li Ka Shing Centre for Health Information and Discovery, and the launch of OSCAR – the Oxford Suzhou Centre for Advanced Research – a major new research centre in Suzhou near Shanghai. In addition, the Ashmolean’s success in raising £1.35 million to purchase King Alfred’s coins, which included support from over 800 members of the public, was a cause for celebration. The pages that follow detail just some of the extraordinary research being conducted here on perovskite solar cells, indestructible tardigrades and driverless cars.

  • Francis MANSELL 1579–1665
    Francis MANSELL 1579–1665 Mansell was born in Muddlescombe, Camarthenshire to Sir Francis and Catherine Mansell. He was educated at the free school in Hereford before attending Jesus College, Oxford in 1607. He received his BA in 1609, followed by his MA in 1611 and an All Souls’ fellowship (as founder’s kin) in 1613. Mansell became principal of Jesus College in 1620, which marked the start of a tumultuous career. He resigned amidst opposition in 1624, only to be re-elected in 1630. During this time, he was awarded his DB and DD, as well as taking up several positions within the church. Through much of the Civil War he remained in Wales to stir up Royalist support. He returned to College for the Parliamentary visitation of the University in 1647, when he was ejected from his role as principal. Mansell continued to teach until he regained his position at the Restoration, although ill health forced him to retire a year later. Mansell did much to support the expansion of college buildings. As well as extending the chapel and developing the second quadrangle, Mansell made plans for a new library to replace his predecessor’s unsuitable building, completed after Mansell’s death. Books Mansell’s personal library was described by his biographer as ‘a very compleat one, and suitable to his Great and Universall Knowledge, whether we consider the choice or the number of the Books’ (Life of Dr Mansell, pp. 15-16, quoted in Fordyce and Knox, p. 15). Although only six books have been recorded in the catalogue with Mansell’s ownership, evidence of Mansell’s library can be gleaned from several sources.

  • Brookes Goes Walking : a Guide to the Route
    Brookes Goes Walking : A Guide to the Route Starting from Brookes Students' Union: Follow the path to the bridge over the main road. This bridge was built in 1877 to link the two parts of the large Morrell estate on each side of the road below. The road was originally the Stokenchurch Turnpike constructed in 1775. Don't cross the bridge, instead walk down the road and turn right into Headington Park. The park was originally part of the ornamental garden belonging to the Hall where the Morrells lived. Turn left out of the park and cross the road with care. Take the path opposite down to the river. The large new stone building is the new Oxford University Centre for Islamic Studies. The building on the right by the River Cherwell was once the King’s Mill. It dates from the Middle Ages but stopped working in 1832. Turn right along the path. This area is called Mesopotamia, from the Greek for “between two rivers”. The original two rivers were the Euphrates and the Tigris so this Oxford version is on a slightly smaller scale! Along this stretch you will see many pollarded willows, trees which have been cut at about head height. The regrowth was used by local people for poles for building and fencing. Pollarding also prevents the trees from splitting when they get top heavy. On a map of 1887 a ferry was shown to operate here. The fields on both sides are often quite wet. Several fields you will see along the route contain rushes and sedges showing the marshy ground.

  • REUBEN COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY of OXFORD Asbestos Abatement – Written Scheme of Investigation for Historic Building Record April 2021
    REUBEN COLLEGE, UNIVERSITY OF OXFORD Asbestos Abatement – Written Scheme of Investigation for Historic Building Record April 2021 A historic building record (HBR) has already been prepared in response to condition 3 of the main works listed building consent for the refurbishment of the Radcliffe Science Library, Abbot’s Kitchen and former Inorganic Chemistry Laboratory to establish the new home of Reuben College (ref. 20/00943/LBC). As per the condition and written scheme of investigation submitted, this comprises a level 3 record (analytical). It is anticipated that a historic building record condition will be attached to the asbestos abatement consent. It is therefore proposed that any findings as a result of this work are documented as an addendum to the existing HBR, which already records the interiors prior to any works. This will include details regarding the moulded profiles around the windows, which it will be necessary to remove prior to reinstating in a suitable lime plaster. The HBR prepared in response to condition 3 of listed building consent 20/00943/LBC has not yet been submitted in order for the condition to be discharged. In order to create a coherent site archive, the original HBR and addendum required as a result of any new findings during the asbestos abatement works will be submitted together in order to discharge the existing condition on 20/00943/LBC and anticipated condition for the abatement works LBC. Areas concerned: lower ground and ground floors of the Jackson wing, between the glazed link and the threshold with the Hooke entrance hall (refer to FJMT drawing 4-A-70310).
