Homelessness is worse than ever with approximately 300,000 homeless people in the UK at the moment and over 5,000 sleeping rough. On the evening of Saturday 8th December, 23 Ampleforth students slept- out in solidarity with the homeless. Braving near freezing temperatures and submerged in large puffer jackets, fleeces and trackies we faced the unsympathetic night ahead. Fortunately, the CCF armed us with sleeping bags, bivvy bags and mats, so we were not entirely exposed to the elements. When I mentioned the sleep-out to my friends they dismissed it. I was met with “Why would you want to sleep outside?” Usually followed by “do you know how cold it is?” I personally wanted to realise what it was like being exposed to the elements and hopefully grasp, to some extent, what emotions are triggered as a result of being exposed to such conditions; to understand what homeless people go through on a daily basis.

  • A Society Wedding in Newport, Rhode Island, in 1910
    A society wedding in Newport, Rhode Island, in 1910. By the end of the 17th century, white had become identified with maidenly innocence. But pink, blue, and yellow bridal dresses persisted until the late 19th century, when "white weddings1'-with bridesmaids, the best man, and composer Richard Wagner's "Bridal Chorusw-became an established tradition. Defining "tradition" is no easy matter. Sociologist Edward Shils called it "anything which is transmitted or handed down from the past to the present." In Chinese weddings as in the U.S. Ma- rine Corps, beliefs, images, social practices, and institutions may all partake of the traditional. Yet the symbols and rituals are less important than the human motives that guide their transmission down through the ages. Tradition may simply function as a means of promoting social stability and continuity. On the other hand, scholars note, it may be deliberately developed and culti- vated as a way of rewriting the past in order to justify the present. Here, in two case studies, Hugh Trevor-Roper and Terence Ran- ger suggest that what we now regard as "age-old" traditions may have their origins in inventive attempts to "establish or legiti- mize . status or relations of authority." by Hugh Trevor-Roper Today, whenever Scotsmen gather together to celebrate their national identity, they wear the kilt, woven in a tartan whose colors and pattern indicate their clan. This apparel, to which they ascribe great antiquity, is, in fact, of fairly recent ori- gin. Indeed, the whole concept of a distinct Highland culture and tradition is a retrospective invention.

  • Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851
    Antiquaries in the Age of Romanticism: 1789-1851 Rosemary Hill Queen Mary, University of London Submitted for the degree of PhD March 2011 1 I confirm that the work presented in this thesis and submitted for the degree of PhD is my own. Rosemary Hill 2 Abstract The thesis concentrates on the work of fourteen antiquaries active in the period from the French Revolution to the Great Exhibition in England, Scotland and France. I have used a combination of the antiquaries’ published works, which cover, among other subjects, architecture, topography, costume history, Shakespeare and the history of furniture, alongside their private papers to develop an account of that lived engagement with the past which characterised the romantic period. It ends with the growing professionalistion and specialisation of historical studies in the mid-nineteenth century which left little room for the self-generating, essentially romantic antiquarian enterprise. In so far as this subject has been considered at all it has been in the context of what has come to be called ‘the invention of tradition’. It is true that the romantic engagement with history as narrative led to some elaboration of the facts, while the newness of the enterprise laid it open to mistakes. I have not ignored this. The restoration of the Bayeux Tapestry, the forged tartans of the Sobieski Stuarts and the creation of Shakespeare’s Birthplace are all considered. Overall, however, I have been concerned not to debunk but as it were to ‘rebunk’, to see the antiquaries in their historical context and, as far as possible, in their own terms.

But these ‘roots’ are still a matter of contention. How deep do they really go? Do they derive from an ancient culture that was truly Gaelic? Or was this culture created in the Romantic era? We see weaponry, tartans, a painting and a bagpipe. To an extent each item is a new creation: the new tourist view over Loch Katrine in about 1815; sword designed in the 18th century; a dress sense growing out of army uniforms in the years when Highland dress and tartan was proscribed; and a Highland bagpipe in a new style created about 1790. Certainly, the impact of recent fashions was clear to see. But Gaels would still recognise that each piece, to a greater or lesser extent, formed part of their heritage.

  • PICKLE the SPY Or the Incognito of Prince Charles 'I
    PICKLE THE SPY or The Incognito of Prince Charles ‘I knew the Master: on many secret steps of his career I have an authentic memoir in my hand.’ THE MASTER OF BALLANTRAE PREFACE This woful History began in my study of the Pelham Papers in the Additional Manuscripts of the British Museum. These include the letters of Pickle the Spy and of JAMES MOHR MACGREGOR. Transcripts of them were sent by me to Mr. ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON, for use in a novel, which he did not live to finish. The character of Pickle, indeed, like that of the Master of Ballantrae, is alluring to writers of historical romance. Resisting the temptation to use Pickle as the villain of fiction, I have tried to tell his story with fidelity. The secret, so long kept, of Prince Charles’s incognito, is divulged no less by his own correspondence in the Stuart MSS. than by the letters of Pickle. For Her Majesty’s gracious permission to read the Stuart Papers in the library of Windsor Castle, and to engrave a miniature of Prince Charles in the Royal collection, I have respectfully to express my sincerest gratitude. To Mr. HOLMES, Her Majesty’s librarian, I owe much kind and valuable aid. The Pickle Papers, and many despatches in the State Papers, were examined and copied for me by Miss E. A. IBBS. In studying the Stuart Papers, I owe much to the aid of Miss VIOLET SIMPSON, who has also assisted me by verifying references from many sources. It would not be easy to mention the numerous correspondents who have helped me, but it were ungrateful to omit acknowledgment of the kindness of Mr.

  • Don't Take the High Road: Tartanry and Its Critics David Goldie If You W
    Don’t take the High Road: Tartanry and its Critics David Goldie If you were of a religious persuasion and had a sense of humour you might think tartan to be one of God’s better jokes. To match up this gaudy, artificial, eye- strainingly irrational fabric with a countryside characterised by its mists and rains and a correspondingly rather dour people known throughout the world for canniness, pragmatism, and rationality, seems a rather sublime piece of audacity and one that can hardly be explained by the normal historical means. It’s true that there may be material historical reasons for tartan, that an impoverished people might weave a kind of textile bricolage from whatever stray fibres might come to hand, for example, and it’s also plausible that muted tartans might have a practical role as an effective camouflage. But this is still quite far from explaining how a piece of such abstract and unwarranted extravagance as ‘Ye principal clovris of ye clanne Stewart tartan’ might have come into being.1 In a similar vein it’s entirely credible to argue that the heady collision of Sir Walter Scott, King George IV, and European Romanticism in Edinburgh in 1822 explains much about tartanry’s sentimental vulgarity and its weird mixture of ostentation and supplication. But what remains seemingly beyond the range of explication (and what Scott already sensed in his fiction) is the fundamental, almost ridiculous mismatch between this impractical concoction and its symbolic importance to a nation seeking to build an international reputation on its hard practical skills in engineering, industrial chemistry, and finance.

Beginning with the 1707 Act of Union between Scotland and England, a moment cemented in history, literature, and popular memory as the beginning of a Scottish rebirth, this thesis traces the evolution of Scottish national identity and the tropes employed for its assertion to paint a clearer picture of the power of strategic selectivity and the effects of sacrifice in the process of community definition.
