George Gilbert Scott: the family that built Gothic Britain (1hr 16 min) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViJgigV6lLM Historian and TV presenter Dan Cruickshank presents The Churches Conservation Trust’s 2015 Annual Lecture, exploring the triumphant and tragic story of the greatest architectural dynasty of the 19th century – Sir George Gilbert Scott, his son George Junior and grandson Giles. Following on from the 2014 BBC documentary, Dan Cruickshank and the Family That Built Gothic Britain, this lecture explores the impact of the Gilbert Scott family on our nation’s architecture, with a particular focus on the churches in the care of The Churches Conservation Trust, the national charity protecting historic churches at risk. Medieval Architects of the Divine: The First Gothic Age (59:02min) deo unavailable https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x3ybrf9 Medieval historian Dr Janina Ramirez looks back to a time when British craftsmen and their patrons created a new form of architecture. The art and architecture of France would dominate England for much of the medieval age. Yet British stone masons and builders would make Gothic architecture their own, inventing a national style for the first time - Perpendicular Gothic - and giving Britain a patriotic backdrop to suit its new ambitions of chivalry and power. From a grand debut at Gloucester Cathedral to commemorate a murdered king to its final glorious flowering at King's College Chapel in Cambridge, the Perpendicular age was Britain's finest. 1 U3A Clitheroe ~ Architecture Group Georgian What defines Georgian architecture? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZz8zQe-zKU Architect Alex Oliver highlights the features one would expect on a Georgian-style property and discusses the subtle nuances that really make a difference when it comes to a successful design Classical The Classical Orders A conversation with Dr. Steven Zucker & Dr. Beth Harris https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrRJkzXl4a4 In classical architecture, the Orders consist of variations of an assembly of parts made up of a column (usually with a base), a capital, and an entablature. These structural units may be repeated and combined to form the elevation of a building and its architectural vocabulary. There are eight Orders in total: Doric (Greek and Roman versions), Tuscan, Ionic (Greek and Roman), Corinthian (Greek and Roman), and Composite. The simplest is the Tuscan, supposedly derived from the Etruscan-type temple. It has a base and capital and a plain column. The Doric is probably earlier, however, its Greek version having no base, as on the Parthenon. The Ionic Order, with its twin volute capitals, originated in Asia Minor in the mid-6th century B.C.E. The Corinthian Order was an Athenian invention of the 5th century B.C.E. and was later developed by the Romans. The Composite Order is a late Roman combination of elements from the Ionic and Corinthian Orders. Classical Architecture: Three Fallacies Article in the Architects Journal, 7 May 2010 Classicism has been wronged, argues Architect, Professor Robert Adam. Although its longevity proves people still want classical buildings, three fallacies about style, relevance and authenticity are used to justify the hostility it receives from the profession. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azM0MzgjvnM Classical City Guide: New York https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbZhyQ0op-w The ICAA is pleased to introduce the Classical City Guide, a new series of videos showcasing architecture in cities and regions across the United States and around the world.

In this eloquent talk, Michael Murphy shows how he and his team look far beyond the blueprint when they're designing. Considering factors from airflow to light, theirs is a holistic approach that produces community as well as (beautiful) buildings. He takes us on a tour of projects in countries such as Rwanda and Haiti, and reveals a moving, ambitious plan for The Memorial to Peace and Justice, which he hopes will heal hearts in the American South. Professor Simon Thurley, Chief Executive of English Heritage (Gresham College Lectures) Making England in the Shadow of Rome, 410-1130 (56:42) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsHl48Wnudc&t=76s When the English nation rose out of the ruins of the Roman Province of Britannia, people remained obsessed with their Roman past. Seismic social and political change in 1066 barely upset the vision of patrons and architects and Rome remained England's cultural capital driving the imagination of its architects. Reaching for Heaven 1130 – 1300 (56:16) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8zPMIzw08Y During the thirteenth century Jerusalem surplanted Rome as the inspiration for English architecture. Huge national wealth led to an outburst of building of great creativity and individuality. The new gothic style which emerged by the 1220s was a national style for England creating some of the most remarkable buildings in European history. How the Middle Ages were built: Exuberance to Crisis 1300 – 1408 (59:33) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KaPCPIAMek England's economic success peaked in 1300 amidst a riot of architectural excess and was followed by a series of disasters which lasted much of the fourteenth century. Yet against a catastrophic background English architectural individualism flourished and out of radically changed social structures an architectural consensus emerged. How the Middle Ages were built: Coming of Age 1408 – 1530 (63:34) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rwjWmt5768 Against a background of political instability architectural initiative was captured by a new class of patrons who built in a style that expressed confidence in their worldly position and fear of the afterlife. On the eve of the Reformation English architecture reached a perfection to be destroyed by Henry VIII and new world order. The End of the Old World Order 1530 – 1650 (59:27) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OBSmYzoHNXc The Reformation and the Civil War, two events a century apart, created an astonishing originality and independence in English Building.

  • Mick Aston Archaeology Fund Supported by Historic England and Cadw
    Mick Aston Archaeology Fund Supported by Historic England and Cadw Mick Aston’s passion for involving people in archaeology is reflected in the Mick Aston Archaeology Fund. His determination to make archaeology publicly accessible was realised through his teaching, work on Time Team, and advocating community projects. The Mick Aston Archaeology Fund is therefore intended to encourage voluntary effort in making original contributions to the study and care of the historic environment. Please note that the Mick Aston Archaeology Fund is currently open to applicants carrying out work in England and Wales only. Historic Scotland run a similar scheme for projects in Scotland and details can be found at: http://www.historic-scotland.gov.uk/index/heritage/grants/grants-voluntary-sector- funding.htm. How does the Mick Aston Archaeology Fund work? Voluntary groups and societies, but also individuals, are challenged to put forward proposals for innovative projects that will say something new about the history and archaeology of local surroundings, and thus inform their future care. Proposals will be judged by a panel on their intrinsic quality, and evidence of capacity to see them through successfully. What is the Mick Aston Archaeology Fund panel looking for? First and foremost, the panel is looking for original research. Awards can be to support new work, or to support the completion of research already in progress, for example by paying for a specific piece of analysis or equipment. Projects which work with young people or encourage their participation are especially encouraged. What can funding be used for? In principle, almost anything that is directly related to the actual undertaking of a project.

But if we set aside these stories, do we really know what happened when, and why it's so important? Which came first, the Bronze Age or the Stone Age? Why did the Romans play such a significant role in our past? And how did a nation as small as Britain come to command such a vast empire?

Katy Ganino Reddick Frank Ward Middle School e f Our primary role as educators is to help our students make connections- between themselves and our content material, between our content material and their lives. This paper, based on a talk given at the 2015 CANE Annual Meeting, is not didactic or exhaustive. Instead it is a collection of different ways you can help your secondary students to connect to Tacitus, specifically his short work,Agricola . Many of these ideas could also apply to other authors or may inspire you in other directions; feel free to use these as a starting point to make your own connections. Although Tacitus is often perceived as a challenging author, his short work the Agricola is a wonderful companion text for Caesar’s Bellum Gallicum. As a short text it is quickly read in English and has very serviceable translations available free both online at various websites and as a Kindle download.

    1 From Artefacts to Anomalies: Papers inspired by the contribution of Arnold Aspinall University of Bradford 1-2 December 2006 “It’s only Geofizz” – popularising archaeological geophysics on Time Team John Gater GSB Prospection Ltd (With thanks to Chris Gaffney) In the past 15 years (since Arnold officially ‘retired’) dramatic things have happened in archaeology in the UK: the subject has become “sexy”, especially in television terms; new stars have emerged on our small screens and one individual in particular has become a role model for hundreds, if not thousands of people; in fact he was described by no less an organ than the Daily Telegraph as probably one of the nicest people on television – instantly recognisable in millions of homes – in a poll of fans he was voted the sexiest person time team – of course we are talking about Phil Harding. In the same poll of fans (JAG) got a single vote - but this momentary glory for geophysics was only dashed when it was discovered that the team landrover got two votes... 15 years ago very few people outside of the profession had heard of archaeological geophysics, now, largely as a result of Time Team (TT) the subject can boast one of the highest public profiles of any specialist scientific discipline. In fact the subject has coined its own language: geophys or geofizz has become a widely recognised term. Prof Timothy Darvill, of Bournemouth University, has even advocated that the word should be included in the Oxford English Dictionary.... At geophysical conferences we have attended, delegates have expressed their envy of the exposure archaeological geophysics receives; there can been few times that geophysicists have made the 1 front cover of a magazine (albeit in New Electronics ) 7 .
