COVER PHOTOGRAPH This Term’s cover photograph is the grave cross of Corporal Joshua Strong of the 29th Canadian Infantry Battalion, killed in action on 28 April 1918. This original grave marker was replaced after the war by an inscribed headstone provided by the Imperial (now Commonwealth) War Graves Commission. The year 2018 marks the centenary of the Armistice which concluded the First World War – that conflict which was supposedly to end all wars. The plaque in the Ante Chapel and the presence of Clare’s Memorial Court are permanent reminders of the cost borne by our own College community. During Lent 2018, we will explore the broad theme of peace in a variety of ways. We open and close the Term with presentations from two distinguished figures, our Eric Lane Fellow Matt Waldman on the role of empathy in peacemaking, and the Vatican Foreign Secretary, Archbishop Paul Gallagher, on the peacebuilding activities of the Holy See. Further details can be found later in the Termcard.

Peter Hain was raised in South Africa, where he was a well-known campaigner against apartheid. He became an MP in 1991, and served in many departments including the FCO, the DTI and the Welsh Office. Between 2005–07, he was Secretary of State for Northern Ireland, and was a key figure in negotiating the settlement which brought old enemies into the sharing of power from May 2007. He was created a Life Peer in 2015. Gemma Simmonds is a sister of the Congregation of Jesus, and from 2005 was a Senior Lecturer in Pastoral and Social Studies and Theology at Heythrop College, London. She is Director of the Religious Life Institute, coordinator of the Erasmus Exchange Programme and a past President of the Catholic Theological Association of Great Britain. Since her return from study and work among women and street children in Brazil in 1992 she has been a volunteer on the chaplaincy team in Holloway Prison. Harriet Lamb is the CEO of International Alert, one of the world’s leading peacebuilding organisations working across 20 countries whose key themes, range from gender relations to the role the private sector can play in supporting peace. Prior to this, Harriet was CEO of Fairtrade International. She was appointed CBE in 2006, and has also been Credit Suisse Business Woman of the Year. Elizabeth Berridge read Law at Cambridge before becoming a barrister. She was created a life Peer in 2011, was a member of the Advisory Council of the Foundation for Relief and Reconciliation in the Middle East, is a founding member of the International Panel of Parliamentarians for Freedom of Religion or Belief, and chairs the All Party Group on International Religious Freedom. Peter Selby was Bishop of Worcester from 1997–2007 and in 2001 was also appointed as Bishop to HM Prisons, a post from which he also retired in September 2007. He is the son of refugees, and served for a time as the Chair of the Asylum Committee of the Refugee Council. He has served in posts involving adult education and policy development, as well as in pastoral and consultancy work, and undertook research into international and personal debt as the William Leech Professorial Fellow in Durham from 1992–97. Peter was President of the National Council for Independent Monitoring Boards of Prisons from 2008–13. Hew Strachan is one of the world’s leading scholars of the First World War, and between 2001–15 was the Chichele Professor of the History of War and a Fellow of All Soul’s College, Oxford. He has been heavily involved with preparations for the centenary of the First World War, serving on the UK and Scotland national advisory committees and on the Comité Scientifique of the Mission du Centenaire in France. He has also chaired the Imperial War Museum’s academic advisory committee for its new First World War galleries and the Commonwealth War Graves Commission’s 2014–18 Committee. We look forward very much to hearing all our speakers, and to engaging with them over drinks and dinner after Evensong.

SERVICES THE EUCHARIST is celebrated every Sunday morning at 9.30 a.m. – a simple service with a short address, followed by croissants and coffee in E3. On Sunday 11 February, we will go to Trinity Hall for the Eucharist in their Chapel, and then return to Clare for breakfast.

Monday 29 January, 6.00 p.m., Clare College Chapel The Role of Empathy in Peacemaking Matt Waldman, Eric Lane Fellow, founding Director of the Centre for Empathy in International Affairs, special adviser to the UN Special Envoy for Syria, 2014/5

Matt Waldman is Clare College’s Eric Lane Visiting Fellow for Lent 2018, a senior adviser to the European Institute of Peace, and founding director of the Center for Empathy in International Affairs. Based in Beirut, he has been involved in several mediation initiatives in the Middle East, including in relation to the Syria conflict. From 2014–15 he was an adviser to the UN Special Envoy for Syria.

Formerly an international lawyer, he has held a range of foreign affairs positions in the UK and European parliaments, and worked in Afghanistan between 2006 and 2012, including as a senior UN official covering reconciliation with the Taliban. He was a fellow at Harvard’s Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs from 2012–14, where his research focussed on foreign policy-making, empathy, and conflict resolution. From 2013–15 he co-directed the Chatham House Opportunity in Crisis project on Afghanistan.

Monday 5 March, 6.00 p.m., The Riley Auditorium The Role of the Holy See in international Peacebuilding Archbishop Paul Gallagher, Secretary for Relations with States, The Vatican

Archbishop Gallagher is the Vatican’s Foreign Minister, responsible for coordinating the extensive diplomatic work of the Holy See. He is the most senior Englishman currently working in the Vatican. Prior to his current role, he worked in diplomatic missions in Tanzania, Uruguay, the Philippines, and Strasbourg, and as Nuncio (ambassador) to Burundi, Guatemala and Australia. He is an immensely engaging speaker, with a wide-ranging expertise in global affairs.

Booking is essential for this lecture, and priority will be given to Clare members until mid- February. Please email Nicola Robertson (nr399) to reserve your (free) ticket.

BAPTISM AND CONFIRMATION Anyone interested in exploring baptism or confirmation is very welcome to speak to the Dean or to one of the Chapel Wardens. There will be a confirmation service during the Easter Term.

ART WALK The Fitzwilliam Museum is one of Cambridge’s greatest but often under-appreciated treasure houses. On Saturday 27 January, the Dean will introduce and reflect on three items from the collection. The morning will conclude at 12.15 p.m. with coffee and soup in the Fitzwilliam’s excellent café! We will depart from Old Court Porters’ Lodge at 10.30 a.m. All are very welcome.

READING GROUP On Tuesday evenings at 7.30 p.m., there will be a short informal reading and discussion group in E3, lasting for one hour. This term we will be exploring Rowan Williams’ recent book God With Us: The Meaning of the Cross and Resurrection, Then and Now. Wine, cheese and other refreshments will be provided and all members of College are very welcome.

THE CAROLINE DIVINES AND THE CHURCH OF ROME, TUESDAY 20 FEBRUARY, 7.15 P.M. Monsignor Mark Langham, formerly responsible for relations between the worldwide Anglican Communion and the Catholic Church at the Pontifical Council for Christian Unity in the Vatican, and currently Catholic Chaplain to the University, will speak about his new book on the creative and erudite early 17th century scholars known as the Caroline Divines, and the themes of the Anglican/Roman Catholic dialogue. There will be plenty of time for questions and conversation. This talk will conclude with a wine reception at 8.00 p.m.

BEDE HOUSE PLACEMENT Each year, because of an historic connection with the parish, Clare supports a placement for a graduate of the College to work at Bede House in Bermondsey. Bede is an established, local charity in south London providing practical and emotional help for clients experiencing domestic violence who also have complex needs. The small team works with 150 individuals each year using a flexible, creative casework approach and providing peer support through the Freedom Programme and Survivors’ Groups. This year, an opportunity has arisen to work as an assistant domestic violence caseworker from September 2017. Harriet Alexander (CL 2012) is the current Clare graduate working at Bede, and she will come and speak about her work at Evensong on Tuesday 30 January at 6.15 p.m. This will be followed by a glass of wine for any current students who wish to meet Harriet and discuss the placement. Details of other events that day will be circulated in due course.

MCR VISIT TO WESTMINSTER On Friday 16 February, there will be a special trip to London for members of the MCR. This will include an opportunity to view the beautiful Wilton Diptych in the National Gallery, before heading for a tour of Westminster Abbey led by the Dean, and Choral Evensong in the Abbey. Places are limited for this trip. Members of the MCR are invited to email Cloe Legrand (cjl79) to reserve their place.

ORTHODOX LITURGY This Term, the Orthodox Christian service of Paraklesis will be held on Wednesdays at 7.30 p.m. in Chapel as a ministry that is hosted by both Clare College and The Institute for Orthodox Christian Studies. The Paraklesis service was compiled in the ninth century and has been chanted by Orthodox Christians since then in petition for comfort (Gk. paraklesis). The service consists of the chanting of a supplicatory cannon to the Theotokos, the reading of psalms, and multiple litanies. As a supplicatory service, there is an opportunity at the beginning of each service for participants to submit the names of those for whom they wish prayer to be offered during the service. All are very welcome.

COLLECTIONS This term’s charity is Combat Stress. See www.combatstress.org.uk for details of their work.

RECITALS Each Sunday during full term there is a recital in Chapel at 5.25 p.m. before Evensong. Visitors are welcome, and admission is free. The recital is a preparation for the worship to follow, and those present are invited to reflect and meditate silently during the musical offering.

MUSIC This Lent Term the Choir sings Victoria’a Missa Ave Regina caelorum for the Presentation of Christ in the Temple (Candlemas) on Thursday 1 February, and James MacMillan’s setting of the Miserere at the Sung Eucharist and Imposition of Ashes for Ash Wednesday on Wednesday 14 February. We sing Choral Evensong for College Parents’ Day in Clare Chapel on Saturday 27 January, welcome Farnham Youth Choir for a joint service on Thursday 15 February, and sing a joint service with the Choir of St John’s College, Cambridge on Tuesday 13 March in their College Chapel.

Throughout the term the Choir will perform works by Clare alumni William Denis Browne, John Rutter, former Composer-in-Residence Giles Swayne, Graham Ross and Joshua Pacey, as well as former Choir commissions from Nico Muhly and Tarik O’Regan. On Sunday 11 March the Choir gives the première performance of a new set of canticles by Clare undergraduate and Choral Scholar Toby Hession.

On Friday 23 March the Choir give two performances of Dieterich Buxtehude’s seven-part cantata Membra Jesu Nostri which focuses on different parts of Christ’s crucified body. In- between each 10-minute cantata, author Sebastian Faulks will read extracts from 1918 poetry and movements from his celebrated novel Birdsong. The Choir will be joined by period instrumentalists, including lutenist and Clare alumna Elizabeth Kenny, and the Chelys Consort of Viols.

Outside of Cambridge, the Choir performs at Bridgewater Hall on Wednesday 31 January in a concert performance of Mozart’s Requiem with the Manchester Camerata. Much of the music in Chapel throughout this academic term centres on the theme of ‘peace’, and the Choir presents a new programme entitled ‘In peace’ at Loughborough (Saturday 10 March), Stowe (Saturday 17 March), Bedford (Thursday 22 March) and Warrington (Saturday 24 March). At the end of the Easter vacation the Choir returns to Bury St Edmunds in concert on Tuesday 17 April before touring to Rome from 18–22 April.
