Design: davewalshcreative.co.uk Print: Modus Print, Independent House, Farrier Street, Worcester WR1 3BH From the Dean The past year has seen the completion of all the repair projects funded by the Government’s English Cathedrals First World War Repair Fund, from which we were fortunate to secure nearly £900,000. This Fund was the first – and so far the last – time that the treasury has directly funded repairs in cathedrals, and there is at present little sign that anything like this will be repeated. The two major projects funded under this scheme were the repairs of the East and West Windows, both carried out to the highest possible standard, on time and practically within budget. Each window was blessed on completion at a liturgy involving some heavenward ascension on the part of different cathedral clergy, but there were no mishaps. Having necessarily been involved in the two window repair projects, our Stonemasons team now resumes work on the Edgar “...the Friends have Tower. Many of you have kindly ‘made your mark’ by sponsoring committed themselves a stone. Gifts from individuals and from trusts, including a major grant from Historic England, mean that we can now to funding the confidently see our way to completing work on the Tower conservation of (including, we hope, the restoration of the great gates) in the ‘Christ in Majesty...” next two years. Alongside this are our plans for the conversion of the Undercroft as our new community learning centre. This is being generously supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund, but as you may know, the Cathedral community has £500k to find. As well as bringing the Undercroft back into use, we will (in collaboration with the King’s School) be installing a lift from down to the Undercroft and up to College Hall. We were warmly encouraged both by the Cathedrals Fabric Commission for England and the Heritage Lottery Fund to include the conservation of the ‘Christ in Majesty’ sculpture in College Hall in the project. I am delighted that having invited the Friends, at last year’s AGM, to become a substantial partner in the Undercroft project, the Friends have committed themselves to funding the conservation of ‘Christ in Majesty’ at a cost of £50,000. On behalf of my colleagues of the Chapter, I express my thanks to the Friends for this, and indeed for the ongoing support of the Friends in so many ways. 3 From the Chairman and Cathedral representatives support of the Cathedral’s group, and so an amendment Undercroft Project.

  • The Canterbury Association
    The Canterbury Association (1848-1852): A Study of Its Members’ Connections By the Reverend Michael Blain Note: This is a revised edition prepared during 2019, of material included in the book published in 2000 by the archives committee of the Anglican diocese of Christchurch to mark the 150th anniversary of the Canterbury settlement. In 1850 the first Canterbury Association ships sailed into the new settlement of Lyttelton, New Zealand. From that fulcrum year I have examined the lives of the eighty-four members of the Canterbury Association. Backwards into their origins, and forwards in their subsequent careers. I looked for connections. The story of the Association’s plans and the settlement of colonial Canterbury has been told often enough. (For instance, see A History of Canterbury volume 1, pp135-233, edited James Hight and CR Straubel.) Names and titles of many of these men still feature in the Canterbury landscape as mountains, lakes, and rivers. But who were the people? What brought these eighty-four together between the initial meeting on 27 March 1848 and the close of their operations in September 1852? What were the connections between them? In November 1847 Edward Gibbon Wakefield had convinced an idealistic young Irishman John Robert Godley that in partnership they could put together the best of all emigration plans. Wakefield’s experience, and Godley’s contacts brought together an association to promote a special colony in New Zealand, an English society free of industrial slums and revolutionary spirit, an ideal English society sustained by an ideal church of England. Each member of these eighty-four members has his biographical entry.

The Reformation questioned the value of and justification for the use of representations of Jesus Christ, the Virgin Mary and the saints found in medieval Catholic churches. This investigation focuses on how and why ideas about images written mostly by clergymen played themselves out differently in each country. The interaction of doctrine, official policy, audience, and practice is central to this analysis as it reveals the character of the religious culture of each country. This analysis argues that unlike Trent that considered the doctrine of images as non- essential, the Church of England viewed images as a key component of their fight against Catholicism because images symbolized all the external and ceremonial aspects that had to be reformed.
