  • Chirico’S Research Has Directly Shaped the Work of the John Clare Trust
    Impact case study (REF3b) Institution: University of Cambridge Unit of Assessment: UoA29 Title of case study: The John Clare Trust 1. Summary of the impact (indicative maximum 100 words) Dr Paul Chirico’s research has directly shaped the work of the John Clare Trust. Dr Chirico has played a leading role in the work of the Trust, which he founded in 2004 with a view to the purchase of the poet’s birthplace in Helpston, near Peterborough. Through the John Clare Cottage and the work of the Trust on which it depends, he has since 2008 achieved direct impact on the conservation, preservation and understanding of culture. He has had an impact on education through the materials he has developed for visitors to the Cottage, both school parties and the general public. 2. Underpinning research (indicative maximum 500 words) The research was undertaken while Chirico was a member of the Faculty of English at the University of Cambridge: in 2000 he was awarded a Research Fellowship in open competition based on his research on Clare; he held this Fellowship (2000 and 2004-6) and a Lectureship (2001-4) at Jesus College. He then held a one-year appointment at the University of York (2006-7), and since 2007 has been Lecturer in English at Fitzwilliam College, Cambridge. The son of a labourer, the poet John Clare (1793–1864) has in recent decades attracted a great deal of critical and scholarly attention. Chirico’s (2007) book John Clare and the Imagination of the Reader [1] makes a major contribution to the understanding of Clare’s place in social, cultural, and literary history by investigating Clare’s own sustained interest in ‘the historical complexity of his own geographical and cultural world’.

This led to his gaining a place to study piano and composition birds, plants and animals through the seasons. at London’s Guildhall School of Music under a Major Award from the County Borough of Brighton. ‘Clare’s Journey’ traces John Clare’s story from the point where, for a short while, he became a fashionable poet favoured by London Society. Indeed, the peasant poet. But London society was Deadman has since developed a strong interest in setting fickle and soon his poetry was forgotten.

  • Chapter 28 Reminiscences – People and Places
    Chapter 28 Reminiscences – People and Places There was once a musical, later a film, called ‘Brigadoon’, about a mythical Scottish Highland village where its entire community awoke for one day every hundred years. Talking about this one day to Joan Marriott, we tried to imagine what it would be like if all those folk our generation knew, quite suddenly appeared. Those characters had helped to shape our lives and had played, in some cases, no small part in helping to make our friendly community what it is today. Old Homes Lottie Kent (97) and her sister Phyllis Sawyer aged (92) were two of eight children of George and Sarah Dudley. They well remember their early home in one of the cottages at the end of Splash Lane. Today these cottages are two dwellings; however my generation will remember them as four. How did they cope? Folk in those days were resourceful. Mr Dudley bought and erected a wooden hut on the opposite side of the lane for the boys to sleep in. At that time their father, George, was horse keeper for Mr Darby. Four out of five of the Dudley boys had worked on one or other of the local farms. Mrs Dudley with her two sisters, Mrs Kate Neal and Mrs Louie Woodward were members of the Pywell family who have lived in this community for many generations. Sheila Crane (Favell) is now the only resident of Sutton to have been born there. Although she moved to her present home soon after she married Gordon, she was born at a house called ‘Cross Keys’, reputedly a pub, which stood at the junction of Manor Road and Nene Way.
