FOREIGN INFLUENCES ON AND INNOVATION IN ENGLISH TOMB SCULPTURE IN THE FIRST HALF OF THE SIXTEENTH CENTURY by Nicola Jane Shilliam B.A. (Warwick) Ph.D. dissertation Warwick University History of Art September 1986 SUMMARY This study is an investigation of stylistic and iconographic innovation in English tomb sculpture from the accession of King Henry VIII through the first half of the sixteenth century, a period during which Tudor society and Tudor art were in transition as a result of greater interaction with continental Europe. The form of the tomb was moulded by contemporary cultural, temporal and spiritual innovations, as well as by the force of artistic personalities and the directives of patrons. Conversely, tomb sculpture is an inherently conservative art, and old traditions and practices were resistant to innovation. The early chapters examine different means of change as illustrated by a particular group of tombs. The most direct innovations were introduced by the royal tombs by Pietro Torrigiano in Westminster Abbey. The function of Italian merchants in England as intermediaries between Italian artists and English patrons is considered. Italian artists also introduced terracotta to England. -

This book cannot be expected to please everybody, and it makes no attempt to conciliate those who prefer sentiment to truth, or who allow their reading of historical events to be distorted by present-day controversies, whether ecclesiastical or political. In that respect it tries to live up to the dictum of Samuel Butler that 'he excels most who hits the golden mean most exactly in the middle'. -

Songs and Music of the City of London: a New Pocket Guide to the City of London’S Contemporary Activities Involving Music in All Its Facets
June 2021 Dear Clerks to the several City of London Livery Companies, Following the culmination of a two-year project, we are pleased to announce the publication of Songs and Music of the City of London: a new pocket guide to the City of London’s contemporary activities involving music in all its facets. We are delighted that Alderman Sir Andrew Parmley, Lord Mayor of London (2016-17), has written the Foreword. The guide covers education, performance and composition of music, whether in the City’s churches, schools, in the Barbican Centre, on the City’s streets such as during the Lord Mayor’s Show, or through sponsorship by the Livery Companies through education and awards. It also includes the various anthems, songs and sung graces of the City’s Livery Companies. In our research for content, we have been constantly surprised at every turn by such a rich abundance of musical talent, events, venues, and performing groups concentrated in such a small geographic area. In our belief that hitherto no single existing publication has captured the immense array of ways in which the City benefits wider society through the medium of music, the aim of our guide is to fill this gap by means of a concise, accessible guide for all. The publication takes the form of a pocket guide, equally suited to the needs of the tourist, the City worker, and those among the Livery Companies and affiliated organisations who have an interest in the musical events and activities within the City. The material is intended for a generalist audience rather than the music aficionado. -

Together, they have launched a nationwide ‘Carbon Fast’, a forty-day journey through Lent, towards a lighter carbon footprint, with a simple energy saving action per day. Participants have been asked to begin the Carbon Fast by removing one light bulb from a prominent place in the home and live without it for 40 days, as a constant visual reminder during Lent of the need to cut energy. On the final day of the Fast, people are encouraged to replace the missing bulb with an energy-saving bulb. Over its lifetime that one bulb will save 60kg of carbon dioxide per year and up to £60. Tearfund and the Bishops have launched the fast because of the urgent need to reduce carbon emissions, and to protect poor communities around the world who are already suffering from the ravages of climate change. Bishop Richard said: “We all have a pivotal role to play in tackling the stark reality of climate change. A whole host of scientific studies have made clear that it is no longer possible to find excuses for doing nothing. Nor it is not enough to point the finger of blame at others and to demand that somebody should act for us. -

City of London Churches Introduction All Hallows by the Tower
City of London Churches Introduction The following pages are a series of written by Mark McManus about some of his favourite churches in the City of London All Hallows by the Tower Barking Abbey, the remains of which still be seen, was founded by Erkenwald in the year 666. Owning land on the eastern edge of the City, the Abbey constructed the Saxon church of All Hallows Berkyngechirche on Tower Hill in 675. Over the centuries, the name mutated to All Hallows Barking. The exterior of the building is quite large and imposing, but its different architectural styles bring attention to its historic troubles: medieval masonry dominated by the brown brickwork of the post-Blitz restoration, its tower of 1659 being a rare example of a Cromwellian rebuild. Despite the somewhat forbidding exterior, the inside of the church is a spacious and light surprise. This is due mostly to Lord Mottistone's post-WWII rebuild, which replaced the previously gloomy Norman nave with concrete and stone, blending well with the medieval work of the aisles with a grace that the cluttered exterior can only dream off. The plain east window allows light to flood into the church, and the glass placed in the recently reopened southern entrance also helps to maintain this airy atmosphere. All Hallows is eager to tell its story. As you first step in through the main entrance in Great Tower Street, you are greeted by a large facsimile showing Vischer's famous engraving of pre- Great Fire London seen from the South Bank, and a gift shop which is the largest I've seen in a City church.
