Best Religious Broadcasting Awards 2014 Now Open for Entry BEST RELIGIOUS BROADCASTING AWARDS 2014 NOW OPEN FOR ENTRY The UK's most prestigious prizes for religious broadcasting, the Sandford St Martin Trust Awards, have opened for entry. Presented each year at Lambeth Palace, the awards recognise excellence in programme-making across television, radio and new media. Those honoured in recent years have included the former Chief Rabbi Lord Sacks, David Suchet, former Archbishop Rowan Williams, Melvyn Bragg, Ian Hislop, Rageh Omaar, Howard Jacobson, Sir Mark Tully, Simon Schama and Anna Magnusson. Winning TV programmes have ranged from The Nativity’ and ‘The Life of Muhammad’ to ‘A History of Christianity’ and ‘Rev’, while radio winners have included 'Resurrection Stories' and 'Faith and 9/11'. Together with the Radio Times, the Trust also sponsors an award for a programme judged the best of the year by readers of the Radio Times themselves. In 2013 they voted David Suchet’s pilgrimage ‘In the Footsteps of St Paul’ the winner. The Trustees also make their own award for excellence, this year recognising the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games for placing the role of religion so centrally in public life. Trustees may also give a personal award to an individual who has made a significant contribution to religious broadcasting. This year this award went to Lord Sacks, retiring Chief Rabbi, for promoting religious debate in programmes ranging from his Reith Lectures to his regular Thought for the Day talks. The radio and television awards, now in their 36th year, are judged by expert panels. In 2014 they will be chaired by broadcaster and presenter Edward Stourton (television), and by author Patrick Gale (radio). Entries for the 2014 awards (for programmes broadcast between 1 February 2013 and 31 January 2014) can be submitted until Friday 7 February 2014. Winners will be announced at an awards ceremony on 3 June at Lambeth Palace, London. The Rt Rev Nick Baines, Bishop of Bradford and Chair of the Sandford St Martin Trust, said: “Excellent religious broadcasting matters and the Sandford St Martin Trust Awards are unique in rewarding programming that grapples with religious, ethical and moral concerns across all faiths. Religion not only shapes how communities organise, but is integral to any understanding of why people are who they are and what motivates them to act in the way that they do.’ This year’s double winner, David Suchet, took both the Radio Times Readers’ Award and the Trust’s Premier TV Award for his programme, ‘In the Footsteps of St Paul’, made for BBC One. The winner of the Trust’s Premier Radio Award was ‘Hearing Ragas’ on BBC Radio 4, which told violinist Professor Paul Robertson's remarkable story of the Indian ragas he heard from within a coma, and the healing effect on him of the late Sir John Tavener's music.

There are separate judging panels for the radio and television awards.

The Trustees’ Award is decided by trustees of the Sandford St Martin Trust. This award recognises a piece of work on broadcast, electronic or social media that trustees consider has done most in the previous year to raise the profile of religion in broadcasting. In some years trustees also make a Personal Award to an individual who has made a significant contribution to religious broadcasting. In total, prize money of around £8,000 is awarded as follows: • £2,000 for each of the winning programmes in the TV and Radio categories • £1,500 for each of the runners-up in the TV and Radio categories • £1,000 for the best entry from a local/community station or online source 2.

  • Wabuda on Diarmaid Macculloch, 'The Reformation' and Macculloch, 'The Reformation: a History'
    H-Albion Wabuda on Diarmaid MacCulloch, 'The Reformation' and MacCulloch, 'The Reformation: A History' Review published on Tuesday, November 1, 2005 Diarmaid MacCulloch. The Reformation. New York: Viking Press, 2003. xxiv + 792 pp. Diarmaid MacCulloch. The Reformation: A History. New York: Viking, 2003. xxiv + 750 pp. $34.95 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-670-03296-9; $20.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-14-303538-1. Reviewed by Susan Wabuda (Department of History, Fordham University) Published on H-Albion (November, 2005) Reformation Resurgens The Reformation was such a startling break in the cultural and political fabric of Europe that it has often had to be understood in slices. So vast in its consequences, historians and theologians have frequently chosen to explore it in terms of their own discreet specialties. The lives and writings of its leaders, and the efforts of its opponents, have been examined in countless works. Nearly every religious affiliation has used it to focus on its own history, until the Reformation has sometimes seemed like a hostage to denominational studies. To explore the entire breadth of the Reformation without partiality or favor, to come to grips with the challenges of source material that stretches across several linguistic boundaries, and to deal with the historiographical and denominational issues of interpretation, are all enormous tasks. In The Reformation, Diarmaid MacCulloch has written a superb, nuanced account of what he terms "the greatest fault line to appear in Christian culture since the Latin and Greek halves of the Roman Empire went their separate ways a thousand years before" (p. xviii). As an editor of The Journal of Ecclesiastical History, one of the premier quarterlies in the field, MacCulloch is well placed to survey that fault line through the latest scholarly trends.

  • 4 'He Who Has Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear
    ‘He Who Has Ears to Hear, Let Him Hear’: Christian Pedagogy and Religious Broadcasting During the Inter-War Period Michael Bailey Leeds Metropolitan University Keywords : Broadcasting, BBC religion, Christian Morality, Civilising Mission, Nation and Culture, Secularisation, Sabbatarianism, Ecumenicalism, Popular Religion and Entertainment. Abstract What I mean to demonstrate in this essay is the way in which early public service broadcasting developed as an extension of Christian pastoral guidance. Understood thus, early broadcasting can be seen to function as a socio-religious technology whose rationale was to give direction to practical conduct and attempt to hold individuals to it. The significance of this is that Christian utterance was a broadcasting activity to which the BBC, and its first Director-General particularly, John Reith, ascribed special importance. The BBC was determined to provide what it thought was for the moral good of the greater majority. In spite of overwhelming criticism from the listening public and secular public opinion, the BBC was unswerving in its commitment to the centrality of Christianity in the national culture. By the end of the 1930s the ‘Reithian Sunday’ was among the most enduring and controversial of the BBCs inter-war practices. Introduction In the entrance of Broadcasting House is a statue by the well-known sculptor, Eric Gill, depicting The Sower casting his seed abroad. Though the act of sowing is nowadays commonly associated with primitive farming methods, the iconography of the sower was in fact used to illustrate a well-known parable from the New Testament (Matthew 13; Mark 4; Luke 8). For just as Jesus told his disciples that the farmer goes out to sow his seed in order to yield a crop, so too do the agencies of religion sow the word of God in order that, ‘He who has ears to hear, let him hear’.

  • Theos Annuallecture09lordsac
    Annual Lecture 2009 Religion in Twenty-first Century Britain Lord Sacks of Aldgate what Theos is Theos is a public theology think tank which exists to undertake research and provide commentary on social and political arrangements. We aim to impact opinion around issues of faith and belief in society. We were launched in November 2006 with the support of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, and the Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor. Our first report "Doing God": A Future for Faith in the Public Square examined the reasons why faith will play an increasingly significant role in public life. what Theos stands for Society is embarking on a process of de-secularisation. Interest in spirituality is increasing across Western culture. Faith is on the agenda of both government and the media. In the arts, humanities and social sciences there are important intellectual developments currently taking place around questions of values and identity. Theos speaks into this new context. Our perspective is that faith is not just important for human flourishing and the renewal of society, but that society can only truly flourish if faith is given the space to do so. We reject notions of a sacred-secular divide. what Theos works on Theos undertakes research across a wide range of subject areas. We analyse social and political change and offer interesting new angles and alternative perspectives on the issues that matter. what Theos provides Theos provides: • a research and publishing programme, • conferences, seminars and lectures, • outreach to university, college and school students, • news, information and analysis to media companies and other opinion formers, with a one-stop information line available to journalists, • regular email bulletins, • other related activities.

  • Winner of the Wolfson History Prize 2017 Announced
    PRESS RELEASE For immediate release Monday 15 May 2017 WINNER OF THE WOLFSON HISTORY PRIZE 2017 ANNOUNCED The winner of this year’s Wolfson History Prize, awarded for excellence in accessible and scholarly history, has been announced as Dr Christopher de Hamel for his book Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts. De Hamel, who receives the £40,000 prize, is Fellow and former librarian of Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. He was one of six authors shortlisted for the Prize earlier this year. Awarded annually by the Wolfson Foundation for over forty years, the Wolfson History Prize has become synonymous with celebrating outstanding history. Established in 1972, it has awarded more than £1.1 million in recognition of the best historical writing being produced in the UK, reflecting qualities of both readability and excellence in writing and research. Sir David Cannadine, Chair of the Prize Judges, said: “Christopher de Hamel's outstanding and original book pushes the boundaries of what it is and what it means to write history. By framing each manuscript of which he writes as the story of his own personal encounter with it, he leads the reader on many unforgettable journeys of discovery and learning. Deeply imaginative, beautifully written, and unfailingly humane, Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts distils a lifelong love of these astonishing historical treasures, which the author brings so vividly to life. It is a masterpiece.” About the Prize-winning book: Part travel book, part detective story, part conversation with the reader, Meetings with Remarkable Manuscripts conveys the fascination and excitement of encountering some of the greatest works of art in our culture which, in the originals, are to most people completely inaccessible.
