  • A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD
    A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine.

  • Christopher John Gibbs – an Old Man Remembers
    An Old Man Remembers Memories of the early life of Christopher John Gibbs, b. December 1902 d. June 1985. Contents Foreword Childhood and London before the Great War Summer Holidays Durnford Prep School Goddards Winchester Years University Land Agency, Territorials, London between the wars 1 An Old Man Remembers Foreword Writers of autobiographies are inevitably conceited. Often the more conceited they are the better the story! As we grow older we become more and more self-centred. This attitude of mind does nothing to help the reader to understand and deal with the ever-changing problems of the modern and future world. The only justification for re-awakening old memories may be that some of the old experiences may be found to be relevant to present day circumstances. My life though insignificant by national standards, has been full of variety. Although I have found every moment of interest, I fear have lacked the gaiety and as can be seen from this note I often verge on pomposity. When I started to consider writing these reminiscences I made a list1 of the important or interesting people with whom I had, usually very fleeting, contact. Most of them would have laughed at such vulgar "names droppings"! However I hope I may be forgiven for mentioning some to enliven the otherwise dull story. It may be that reverence for "the great" started from the reading of the "Told to the Children" stories2 when Lord Roberts who was still living became one of my heroes. I made up my mind to become a Field Marshall.

One of the pioneers of K-theory, he was knighted in 1983 and received the Order of Merit in 1993. He was Master of Trinity College, Cambridge from 1990 to 1997, and served as President of the Royal Society, London from 1990 to 1995 (exactly one hundred years after William Thomson, Lord Kelvin, President of the Royal Society 1890–95). Elected an Honorary FRSE in 1985, Sir Michael served as RSE President from 2005 to 2008. He is only the second person ever to have been sometime President of both the Royal Society of Edinburgh and the Royal Society in London – the first being Lord Kelvin. During his Presidency of the RSE, Sir Michael was the driving force behind the commissioning of the James Clerk Maxwell statue, which now stands at the east end of George Street. This portrait was commisioned by the RSE’s Council, and unveiled by Lord Mackay of Clashfern on 5 June 2007. A small version was bought by the Scottish National Portrait Gallery.
