Please make every effort to be at Evensong on her last Sunday here, 9 July, after which we will say our collective thank-yous and make presentations. This little article isn’t the place for an extensive essay about June and her time here, but the thing I want to stress now is that she will go leaving this Cathedral in generally robust health. There is never an excuse for complacency as a Christian, but I hope June will take very considerable satisfaction with her as she reflects on her many years at Salisbury Cathedral. As June goes to a new ministry in south Wales, there will be various practical adjustments to things here, and in due course a new appointment will be made. But our common purpose, to Sharing Memories sustain the worship of God with our lips and in our lives, is timeless. It’s a thread running from beyond the foundation of this Cathedral early in of the psychopathic nonsense inflicted on these the last millennium and it’s shared, in their own victims are usually called ‘Islamists’.

  • The Capital Sculpture of Wells Cathedral: Masons, Patrons and The
    The Capital Sculpture of Wells Cathedral: Masons, Patrons and the Margins of English Gothic Architecture MATTHEW M. REEVE For Eric Fernie This paper considers the sculpted capitals in Wells cathedral. Although integral to the early Gothic fabric, they have hitherto eluded close examination as either a component of the building or as an important cycle of ecclesiastical imagery in their own right. Consideration of the archaeological evidence suggests that the capitals were introduced mid-way through the building campaigns and were likely the products of the cathedral’s masons rather than part of an original scheme for the cathedral as a whole. Possible sources for the images are considered. The distribution of the capitals in lay and clerical spaces of the cathedral leads to discussion of how the imagery might have been meaningful to diCerent audiences on either side of the choir screen. introduction THE capital sculpture of Wells Cathedral has the dubious honour of being one of the most frequently published but least studied image cycles in English medieval art. The capitals of the nave, transepts, and north porch of the early Gothic church are ornamented with a rich array of figural sculptures ranging from hybrid human-animals, dragons, and Old Testament prophets, to representations of the trades that inhabit stiC-leaf foliage, which were originally highlighted with paint (Figs 1, 2).1 The capitals sit upon a highly sophisticated pier design formed by a central cruciform support with triple shafts at each termination and in the angles, which oCered the possibility for a range of continuous and individual sculpted designs in the capitals above (Fig.

  • Changes in the Appearance of Paintings by John Constable
    return to list of Publications and Lectures Changes in the Appearance of Paintings by John Constable Charles S. Rhyne Professor, Art History Reed College published in Appearance, Opinion, Change: Evaluating the Look of Paintings Papers given at a conference held jointly by the United Kingdom institute for Conservation and the Association of Art Historians, June 1990. London: United Kingdom Institute for Conservation, 1990, p.72-84. Abstract This paper reviews the remarkable diversity of changes in the appearance of paintings by one artist, John Constable. The intention is not simply to describe changes in the work of Constable but to suggest a framework for the study of changes in the work of any artist and to facilitate discussion among conservators, conservation scientists, curators, and art historians. The paper considers, first, examples of physical changes in the paintings themselves; second, changes in the physical conditions under which Constable's paintings have been viewed. These same examples serve to consider changes in the cultural and psychological contexts in which Constable's paintings have been understood and interpreted Introduction The purpose of this paper is to review the remarkable diversity of changes in the appearance of paintings by a single artist to see what questions these raise and how the varying answers we give to them might affect our work as conservators, scientists, curators, and historians. [1] My intention is not simply to describe changes in the appearance of paintings by John Constable but to suggest a framework that I hope will be helpful in considering changes in the paintings of any artist and to facilitate comparisons among artists.

One hundred years ago, the then headmaster of St Paul’s Cathedral Choir School, Reverend R H Couchman, joined his colleagues from King’s College School, Cambridge and Westminster Abbey Choir School to consider the sustainability of choir schools in the light of rigorous inspections of independent schools and regulations governing the employment of children being introduced under the terms of the Fisher Education Act. Although cathedral choristers were quickly exempted from the new employment legislation, the meeting led to the formation of the CSA, and Couchman was its honorary secretary until his retirement in 1937.

  • The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE)
    ABSTRACT MARY ELIZABETH BLUME The English Claim to Gothic: Contemporary Approaches to an Age-Old Debate (Under the Direction of DR STEFAAN VAN LIEFFERINGE) The Gothic Revival of the nineteenth century in Europe aroused a debate concerning the origin of a style already six centuries old. Besides the underlying quandary of how to define or identify “Gothic” structures, the Victorian revivalists fought vehemently over the national birthright of the style. Although Gothic has been traditionally acknowledged as having French origins, English revivalists insisted on the autonomy of English Gothic as a distinct and independent style of architecture in origin and development. Surprisingly, nearly two centuries later, the debate over Gothic’s nationality persists, though the nationalistic tug-of-war has given way to the more scholarly contest to uncover the style’s authentic origins. Traditionally, scholarship took structural or formal approaches, which struggled to classify structures into rigidly defined periods of formal development. As the Gothic style did not develop in such a cleanly linear fashion, this practice of retrospective labeling took a second place to cultural approaches that consider the Gothic style as a material manifestation of an overarching conscious Gothic cultural movement. Nevertheless, scholars still frequently look to the Isle-de-France when discussing Gothic’s formal and cultural beginnings. Gothic historians have entered a period of reflection upon the field’s historiography, questioning methodological paradigms. This

  • John Constable, Salisbury Cathedral & John Fisher
    John Constable, Salisbury Cathedral & John Fisher On the 10th February 1829, John Constable finally realised his dream of becoming an Academician and later in the month he exhibited what is for many, his most ‘Sublime’ painting, Hadleigh Castle, that is the one that most eloquently expressed the emotional turmoil attendant to his wife’s death just a few months earlier. In this painting, the three aspects of ‘Chiaroscuro’, as a natural phenomenon, a pictorial device and as a metaphor for the range of human emotions, were so instinctively combined by Constable, that for him, to an unprecedented degree, the act of painting became an instrument of self- confession. Indeed, Constable may have been the first painter, to apply the term Chiaroscuro, hitherto used in relation to art, to the appearance of Nature, highlighted by this remark to Fisher: ‘I live by shadows; to me shadows are realities.’ Hadleigh Castle, oil on canvas, 48x64 inches, Yale Centre for British Art Constable visited Hadleigh in 1814 at which time he made several sketches of the coastline of the Thames estuary. The picture was painted at Hampstead and before bringing it to the exhibition, he confessed his anxieties to Leslie, his friend and biographer, as he was still smarting after his election and Sir Thomas Lawrence’s insensitive remarks on his admission to the Academy as an Academician, where he only defeated Francis Danby by one vote. When Constable made his official call upon Lawrence, the President of the Academy, Lawrence, ‘Did not conceal from his visitor that he considered him peculiarly fortunate in being chosen as an Academician at a time when there were historical painters of great merit on the list of candidates.’ Coming at this time, the event was, as he said, ‘devoid of all satisfaction’.

  • SALISBURY CATHEDRAL Timeline and Significant Events. Post Conquest
    SALISBURY CATHEDRAL Timeline and significant events. Post Conquest 1075-92 At the Council of London it was decreed that bishoprics should not be continued in small towns or villages where clergy could be exposed to violence from local (English) residents. The King urged the Bishops to move to towns where defensive structures could be built with a garrison to protect the Norman settlers and the clergy. The dioceses of Sherborne and Ramsbury were merged at Old Sarum in Wiltshire, a castle built within a walled precinct and a new abbey next to it, consecrated 1092. Bishop Osmund supervised the building of this large Norman cathedral. 1200-20 The resident canons were unhappy with the exposed site at Old Sarum, and there were conflicts of interest between the castle and the abbey which lead Bishop Herbert Poore to seek a Papal Bull to relocate the Cathedral 2 miles away on land (80 acres) owned by his brother Richard Poore, who was planning a new town by the River Avon, large enough for the proposed cathedral complex. This was the beginning of Salisbury. 1220-58 Richard Poore succeeded his brother as Bishop in 2017 and he laid out the foundations for the new cathedral starting at the east end chapels, then the presbytery and eastern transepts, followed by the crossing, choir and western transepts c.1240. The master mason was Nicholas of Ely, working under the direction of canon Elias of Dereham. Their combined efforts produced one of the most stately cathedrals in England, praised for its consistency of style (mostly Early English) and restrained use of decorative ornament .

  • The Year 1930 (254) Summary: on January 30, Jack Likely Experienced His Unbuckling on Top of a Bus Going up Headington Hill As W
    The Year 1930 (254) Summary: On January 30, Jack likely experienced his unbuckling on top of a bus going up Headington Hill as well as the “zoo of lusts” insight. On February 3, Jack wrote his famous monastery letter to Owen Barfield in which he wrote about the “Spirit” becoming more personal. On February 25, Warren sailed from Shanghai on the freighter Tai-Yin, and on April 16 his ship landed in Liverpool. On May 25, Warren accepted Jack and Mrs. Moore’s invitation to make his home with them. On June 3, Warren left Little Lea for the last time. During the first six days of June, Jack became a theist. Warren returned to Bulford on May 15. On July 16, the offer of Warren, Jack, and Mrs. Moore to purchase the Kilns was accepted. On October 10-11, Warren helped Jack, Mrs. Moore, and Maureen move from Hillsboro to the Kilns. On October 12, Jack and Warren walked past Holy Trinity and agreed that this must be their church. In December, Warren began the work of editing The Lewis Papers while on leave. Jack writes his De Bono et Malo1 this year. Jack probably also writes his De Toto et Parte2 to Barfield this year. Jack probably writes the poem “Leaving For Ever the Home of One’s Youth,” since his father died on Sept. 25, 1929. Jack writes several undated letters to Barfield this year (see Collected Letters, III, 1519-1521). Don King dates the poem “You, Beneath Scraping Branches” to this year.3 King dates the poem “When the Year Dies in Preparation for the Birth,” elsewhere known as “Launcelot,” to one of the years between 1930 and 1933.4 Martin Lings writes a masque, which is performed in Oxford and sends a letter to Jack; Jack responds to that letter and masque in complimentary fashion.5 January 1930 January 1 Wednesday.
