  • Of St Cuthbert'

    Of St Cuthbert'

    A Literary Pilgrimage of Durham by Ruth Robson of St Cuthbert' 1. Market Place Welcome to A Literary Pilgrimage of Durham, part of Durham Book Festival, produced by New Writing North, the regional writing development agency for the North of England. Durham Book Festival was established in the 1980s and is one of the country’s first literary festivals. The County and City of Durham have been much written about, being the birthplace, residence, and inspiration for many writers of both fact, fiction, and poetry. Before we delve into stories of scribes, poets, academia, prize-winning authors, political discourse, and folklore passed down through generations, we need to know why the city is here. Durham is a place steeped in history, with evidence of a pre-Roman settlement on the edge of the city at Maiden Castle. Its origins as we know it today start with the arrival of the community of St Cuthbert in the year 995 and the building of the white church at the top of the hill in the centre of the city. This Anglo-Saxon structure was a precursor to today’s cathedral, built by the Normans after the 1066 invasion. It houses both the shrine of St Cuthbert and the tomb of the Venerable Bede, and forms the Durham UNESCO World Heritage Site along with Durham Castle and other buildings, and their setting. The early civic history of Durham is tied to the role of its Bishops, known as the Prince Bishops. The Bishopric of Durham held unique powers in England, as this quote from the steward of Anthony Bek, Bishop of Durham from 1284-1311, illustrates: ‘There are two kings in England, namely the Lord King of England, wearing a crown in sign of his regality and the Lord Bishop of Durham wearing a mitre in place of a crown, in sign of his regality in the diocese of Durham.’ The area from the River Tees south of Durham to the River Tweed, which for the most part forms the border between England and Scotland, was semi-independent of England for centuries, ruled in part by the Bishop of Durham and in part by the Earl of Northumberland.

    THE MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI AND FRIENDS OF DURHAM UNIVERSITY 2018 ISSUE 04 ISSUE 04 2018 DUNELM MAGAZINE 3 Dear alumni of Durham Durham, as it always has, is continuing to develop. Major advances have been made on the plans laid out in the University Strategy, 2017-2027. As you will see in your magazine, we have begun work on a new Centre for Teaching and Learning near St Mary’s and we now have planning permission for our 17th college, the first in ten years, which will be built near Van Mildert on South Road. The developments at Maiden Castle and in Computer Science are also moving forward quickly. You can see the artists’ drawings of some of these projects over the next few pages. In order to prepare the way for the transition of colleges and departments into Durham from Queen’s Campus Stockton, Ustinov College has now moved into a first-class new home at Sheraton Park (the old Neville’s Cross college site), and John Snow and Stephenson Colleges have established bases in Durham City in preparation for their move into Durham over the summer. Meanwhile in Queen’s, our new International Study Centre (ISC) has enjoyed a successful first term, and we are looking forward to a large number of ISC students joining Durham University degree courses next year. All of this work is designed not only to keep Durham at the pinnacle of UK education but also to expand our global reputation and reach; and so I am also pleased to let you know that we have a new Pro-Vice-Chancellor, Professor Claire O’Malley, who will lead on globalizing Durham.
