volume 15, number 2(1990) A Newsletter published by University of Toronto Press in association with Erindale College, University of Toronto . JoAnna Dutka, editor Records ofEarf~q English Drama MARY BLACKSTONE A Survey and annotated bibliography of records research and performance history relating to early British drama and minstrelsy for 1984 - 8. (continued) 418 Kendall, Ritchie D. The Drama ofDissent: The Radical Poetics ofNonconformity, 1380 - 1590. Studies in Religion Series . Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 1986 . [A study of the dramatic qualities of nonconformist dissent, which draws on occasional references to theatrical performance from printed sources . Chapters are: 1) `The Lollards : The Unmasking of Mystery,' 2) `The Lollards: Displaced Drama,' 3) `John Bale : The Cloistered Imagination,' 4) `Thomas Cartwright : The Drama of Disputation,' 5) `Martin Marprelate : Syllogis- tic Laughter.'] 419 Kent, Joan R The English Village Constable 1580 -1642: A Social andAdministra- tive Study. Oxford: Clarendon, 1986. [Discusses the powers and duties of con- stables, their procedures and problems, their place in and relation to their commu- nity, and their conduct . Through substantial primary research (especially with constables' account books), she demonstrates that although constables in some locations had important roles in local rituals and festivities ('drawinge the fend' on Plough Monday in Waltham, drink at the bonfire on the `kings holydaie' in Pattingham and Branston, `expenses' from the `perambulation' in Waltham, pp 52, 294), they were frequently pitted against popular customs in their role of enforcing increasingly Puritan social decorum : a constable at Fincham confronted the village clerk and minstrels carousing on Midsummer Night in the alehouse (p 257); one at Alton, Hampshire suppressed Sunday dancing and arrested the minstrel (pp 257-8) ; one at Brinklow, Warwickshire tried to stop the setting up of a Maypole and arrest the minstrel ; one at Longdon, Worcestershire attempted to 1 suppress May games and morris dancing and arrest the minstrel (p 258) ; and one in Wells, Somerset tried to suppress May games, morris dancing, and pageants and arrest the minstrels involved, but the townsmen responded by mounting three pageants ridiculing the constable and circulating satirical ballads (pp 258-9, 261) . Some constables, however, supported local customs : the wake involving minstrels and `vagrant rogues' at Walsall, Staffordshire, 1610 and the church ale involving minstrelsy and dancing in the church house on Sunday at Yeovil, Somerset, 1607 (p 294).] 420 Ker, N. R. `The Provision of Books .' In The Collegiate University. Ed. James McConica. Vol 3 of The History ofthe University of Oxford Gen. ed. T. H. Aston . Oxford: Clarendon, 1986. 441- 78 . [Draws attention (p 473) to a new tran- scription by Walter Mitchell of 6,000 book titles drawn from book lists in univer- sity inventories 0506 - 14, 1527 - 43, 1545 -1661) and wills (1506 -1720) . The typescript is available at the University Archives .] 421 Kimball, Elisabeth G. Oxfordshire Sessions ofthe Peace in the Reign ofRichardu Oxfordshire Record Society 53 (1983) . [Transcribes three documents relating to an attack on Oxford scholars and the robbery of many items including cithers in 1389 (pp 97 -100, 103 - 6, 110 -13).] 422 Kindermann, Heinz. Das Theaterpublikum der Renaissance . Vol 1. Salzburg. Otto Muller, 1984. [A study of the Renaissance theatre audience which focuses prima- rily on continental performance but which includes some English examples (drawn from printed primary and secondary sources) . Chapter 2 on the audience for street-theatre considers triumphal and royal entries-including those of Charles v into London, 1522 (pp 72 - 5); Elizabeth i into London, 1558 (pp 82 - 3, fig. 16) and the Field of the Cloth of Gold, 1522 (p 76)-and tournaments (under Richard r, Edward iii, and Henry viii, pp 102 - 3) . Chapter 3 on ballet and dancing at court devotes some attention to records of English masques (pp 147 - 8) and their precursors in revels, disguisings, and other entertainments (particularly under Henry viii and Elizabeth, pp 144 - 7). Unfortunately, this volume is not indexed .] 423 King, Pamela M . 'Dunbar's The Golden Targe: A Chaucerian Masque.' Studies in Scottish Literature 19 (1984) 115 - 31 . [Argues that this poem is related in a metaphorical sense to the masque rather than simply to court festivities as an occasional poem . In exploring its borrowings from the presentational form of court entertainments she cites previously printed records for tournaments (1501, 1503, 1507, 1508 ; pp 121, 124 - 6), the royal entry of Margaret Tudor into Edinburgh (p 123), disguisings at Richmond Palace and Edinburgh (p 124), and the Fishmongers' pageant at the birth of Edward in in 1313 (p 125)- the last two with particular reference to pageant cars in the shape of a ship .] 424 - `Spatial Semantics and the Medieval Theatre .' In The Theatrical Space. Themes 2 in Drama 9 . Ed. James Redmond. Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 1987. 45 - 58. [Examines the different theories concerning the staging of medieval theatre (with reference to the Castle of Perseverance drawing) and concludes that a `multi-systems approach' is desirable and `not at all incompatible with the traditional figural method' (p 57) .] 425 King, T. J. `The King's Men on Stage : Actors and Their Parts, 1611 - 1632.' The Elizabethan Theatre IX. Papers given at the Ninth International Conference on Elizabethan Theatre held at the University of Waterloo, in July 1981 . Ed. G. R. ' Hibbard . Port Credit, Ontario : P.D. Meany, nd. 21 - 40. [Draws from Henslowe's papers and Diary as well as other records from Bentley and Chambers to support his analysis of the casting of 11 plays performed by the king's men in this period . He concludes that parts were assigned on the basis of the size of the part- not character traits- and that actors had to be flexible enough to play very different roles . He provides a chart for king's men identified in principal parts during this period.] 426 Kipling, Gordon . `The Queen of May's Joust at Kennington and the Justes of the Months ofMay andJune.' Notes and Queries 229 (1984) 158 - 62 . [Corrects the date of a joust held at Kennington in honour of the Queen of May - previously transcribed by Richard Firth Green, `A Joust in Honour of the Queen of May, 1441,' Notes and Queries, 225 (1980), 386 - 9 - to May 1507 and identifies it as that performed by Charles Brandon, Thomas Knyvet, Gyles Capell, and William Hussy and documented in the poem `The Justes of the Moneths of May and June' . Also quotes passages from the poem identifying Richard Grey, earl of Kent and Charles Brandon as participants in the 'Justes of the Moneth of June' . Makes occasional reference to other jousts (1494, 1501, 1506, 1509) in which Sir Rowland Vielvill participated.] 427 - `Richard ii's "Sumptuous Pageants" and the Idea of the Civic Triumph.' In Pageantry in the Shakespearean Theater. Ed. David M. Bergeron . Athens : Univer- sity of Georgia Press, 1985 . 83 - 103 . [With reference to descriptions of Richard it's reconciliation triumph by Holinshed and Maydiston (as well as occasional reference to descriptions of similar pageants), he examines the nature and purpose of such pageantry, placing more emphasis on connections with the biblical and liturgical entries of Christ into Jerusalem and heaven than with the pageantry of cycle plays or pageants used as trade-symbols in civic processions and shows . Reference in Henry vii's Household Ordinances (1494) to 'a sight with angelles singing' to be erected on city conduits whenever a queen was received into London suggests that particular scenic features became traditional .] 428 Knapp, Margaret and Michal Kobialka . `Shakespeare and the Prince of Purpoole : The 1594 Production of The Comedy ofErrors at Gray's Inn Hall.' Theatre History Studies 4 (1984) 70 - 81 . [Examines the Gesta Grayorum records of festivities 3 04 accompanying the Comedy ofErrors performance during the Prince of Purpoole's Christmas Revels, December 20 through Shrove Tuesday, for information regard- ing the nature of staging. Records concern the erecting of scaffolding for seating ; the seating of the lord of misrule, his train, and important dignitaries on the dais ; the riding of a horse around the hall fireplace ; the staging of the Masque ofAmity at the side of the hall using a curtain (p 78) and a reference to the area between the dais and the fireplace as the `Stage' (p 77) . Knapp concludes that an area 9' by 34'8" may have been used for the performance of Comedy ofErrors, and it may have been seen from four sides . Other staging records from the Inner Temple (p 75) and Middle Temple (p 78) are also used to suggest that there was no single method of staging plays at the Inns and that Elizabethan players had to be flexible in their staging expectations . Accompanied by an engraving of the Hall, a ground plan of the Hall during term and a list of events during the 1594/5 Revels .] 429 Knowles, James D . `Identifying the Speakers : "The Entertainment at Ashby" (1607) .' Notes and Queries233 (1988) 489 - 90. [Draws attention to frequent mistranscriptions and incorrect identification of speakers amongst editors of the 14 verses attached to John Marston's `Entertainment at Ashby' in the Huntington Library. The speakers for this gift-giving ceremony for the betrothal of Anne Stanley and Grey Brydges would have involved three servants, most likely gentle- women waiting on Elizabeth Countess of Huntingdon : Katherine Fisher; her sister, Mary Fisher; and Mistress Clavers .] 430 - `WS MS.' Times Literary Supplement 29 April 1988 : 472, 485 . [An examina- tion of Peter Levi's edition of the Ashby gift-giving verses with a point by point refutation of his arguments (both paleographical and circumstantial) which leads to the conclusion that William Skipwith is the more likely author of the verses .

  • Tavistock Abbey

    Tavistock Abbey

    TAVISTOCK ABBEY Tavistock Abbey, also known as the Abbey of Saint Mary and Saint Rumon was originally constructed of timber in 974AD but 16 years later the Vikings looted the abbey then burned it to the ground, the later abbey which is depicted here, was then re-built in stone. On the left is a 19th century engraving of the Court Gate as seen at the top of the sketch above and which of course can still be seen today near Tavistock’s museum. In those early days Tavistock would have been just a small hamlet so the abbey situated beside the River Tavy is sure to have dominated the landscape with a few scattered farmsteads and open grassland all around, West Down, Whitchurch Down and even Roborough Down would have had no roads, railways or canals dividing the land, just rough packhorse routes. There would however have been rivers meandering through the countryside of West Devon such as the Tavy and the Walkham but the land belonging to Tavistock’s abbots stretched as far as the River Tamar; packhorse routes would then have carried the black-robed monks across the border into Cornwall. So for centuries, religious life went on in the abbey until the 16th century when Henry VIII decided he wanted a divorce which was against the teachings of the Catholic Church. We all know what happened next of course, the Dissolution of the Monasteries, when along with all the other abbeys throughout the land, Tavistock Abbey was raised to the ground. Just a few ruined bits still remain into the 21st century.

The village takes its name from having been part of the original endowment of Tavistock Abbey and possesses a fine 15th Century church. Many of the houses and cottages were built as a “model village” for the local workers by the Duke of Bedford’s estate and designed in the Lutyens style. In the village there is also a pub, shop and primary school. The nearby ancient stannary town of Tavistock possesses a full selection of local facilities including shops and restaurants, and private education with Kelly College and Mount House Preparatory School. Just beyond Tavistock is the western boundary of the Dartmoor National Park, renowned for its spectacular scenery and providing many opportunities locally for walking, riding and fishing. Nearby is the beautiful, partly wooded River Tamar Valley and to the south the estuaries of the Rivers Tamar and Tavy and the beautiful South Devon and Cornwall coast with its beaches, estuaries and excellent opportunities for sailing.

  • To Anthon Van Rappard. the Hague, on Or About Sunday, 22 October 1882

    To Anthon Van Rappard. the Hague, on Or About Sunday, 22 October 1882

    To Anthon van Rappard. The Hague, on or about Sunday, 22 October 1882. on or about Sunday, 22 October 1882 Metadata Source status: Original manuscript Location: Amsterdam, Van Gogh Museum, inv. no. b8349 V/2006 Date: In De brieven 1990 this letter is dated on or about 29 October 1882, which results in a very high density of letters to Van Rappard in the last days of October. Moreover, it leads to the strange situation that, at a time when Van Gogh and Van Rappard are corresponding with great frequency about illustrations, for four weeks (roughly from the end of September to the end of October) no letters pass between them. This is why we have placed the letter a little earlier in October. Van Gogh wrote on or about 23 September that within 14 days (perhaps even sooner) he expected to have a collection of prints in his possession (letter 268, ll. 49-50). The postscript in letter 274 of 22 October shows that by then he had received the new woodcuts, whereas in letter 272 of 15 October he doesnt yet mention them, so we assume that the acquisition came into his hands in the intervening week. The obvious conclusion is that the list of monograms in the present letter was drawn up wholly or partly because of this acquisition. Whether this was done after Sunday, 22 October (and thus before or after letter 274) is impossible to determine, but it must have been around then, so we date the letter to on or about Sunday, 22 October.

Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief.
  • 2 the Seven Deadly Sins</Em>

    2 the Seven Deadly Sins</Em>

    Early Theatre 10.1 (2007) ROBERT HORNBACK The Reasons of Misrule Revisited: Evangelical Appropriations of Carnival in Tudor Revels Undoubtedly the most arresting Tudor likeness in the National Portrait Gallery, London, is William Scrots’s anamorphosis (NPG1299). As if mod- eled after a funhouse mirror reflection, this colorful oil on panel painting depicts within a stretched oblong, framed within a thin horizontal rectangle, the profile of a child with red hair and a head far wider than it is tall; measur- ing 63 inches x 16 ¾ inches, the portrait itself is, the Gallery website reports, its ‘squattest’ (‘nearly 4 times wider than it is high’). Its short-lived sitter’s nose juts out, Pinocchio-like, under a low bump of overhanging brow, as the chin recedes cartoonishly under a marked overbite. The subject thus seems to prefigure the whimsical grotesques of Inigo Jones’s antimasques decades later rather than to depict, as it does, the heir apparent of Henry VIII. Such is underrated Flemish master Scrots’s tour de force portrait of a nine-year-old Prince Edward in 1546, a year before his accession. As the NPG website ex- plains, ‘[Edward] is shown in distorted perspective (anamorphosis) …. When viewed from the right,’ however, ie, from a small cut-out in that side of the frame, he can be ‘seen in correct perspective’.1 I want to suggest that this de- lightful anamorphic image, coupled with the Gallery’s dry commentary, pro- vides an ironic but apt metaphor for the critical tradition addressing Edward’s reign and its theatrical spectacle: only when viewed from a one-sided point of view – in hindsight, from the anachronistic vantage point of an Anglo-Amer- ican tradition inflected by subsequent protestantism – can the boy king, his often riotous court spectacle, and mid-Tudor evangelicals in general be made to resemble a ‘correct’ portrait of the protestant sobriety, indeed the dour puritanism, of later generations.
  • Challenging the Whiteness of Britishness: Co-Creating British Social History in the Blogosphere

    Challenging the Whiteness of Britishness: Co-Creating British Social History in the Blogosphere

    Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Special Issue – September 2015 Challenging the Whiteness of Britishness: Co-Creating British Social History in the Blogosphere Deborah Gabriel, Bournemouth University, UK Abstract Blogs are a valuable medium for preserving cultural memory, reflecting the various dimensions of human life (O’Sullivan, 2005) and allowing ordinary individuals and marginalised groups the opportunity to contribute to the ‘dialogue of history’ (Cohen, 2005:10). The diverse perspectives to be found in the blogosphere can help deepen understanding of historical moments. Such examples include 9/11 (Cohen, 2005), the London bombings in 2005 (Allan, 2006) and Hurricane Katrina (Brock, 2009). Using critical race theory (CRT) as a theoretical framework and cultural democracy as the conceptual framework, this study examines the symbolic power of counter-storytelling through the blogosphere. The findings reveal that in relation to coverage of the UK ‘riots’ in 2011 and the Stephen Lawrence verdict in 2012, African Caribbean bloggers advanced alternative perspectives of the events and appropriated blogs as a medium for self-representation through their own constructions of Black identity. In so doing they performed a vital role as co- creators of British social history. 1 Online Journal of Communication and Media Technologies Special Issue – September 2015 Introduction Historical archives in Britain often exclude or fail to capture the presence and experiences of people of colour (which dates back to the 17th century with the first arrival of slaves from the west coast of Africa), resulting in a ‘whitenening of Britishness’ Bressey (2006:51). The term is defined as a process through which the exclusion of a person’s skin colour in historical records results in the assumption of a white identity (Bressey, 2006).

Date published August 2020 Please note that the research for this report took place prior to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Although the report refers to long standing health and wellbeing issues which have and will continue to impact upon residents, we would encourage you to read them alongside the COVID-19 Health Impact Assessment which is available on the Warwickshire JSNA webpage (from July 2020). This assessment identifies key health and wellbeing indicators that have been affected by the Coronavirus outbreak. The pandemic has, and will continue to have, direct and indirect impacts on individuals and communities across Warwickshire. Some who suffered from COVID- 19 illness are facing a period of recovery of unknown trajectory. Many of those who lost loved ones during the pandemic are having to grieve without having been able to say goodbye, or to be close to others while they grieve. Additionally, economic and mental health impacts are already being felt as a result of the pandemic response, with these impacts disproportionately affecting people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic Groups and those with lower incomes, who have often been at the frontline of the response in essential worker roles.

It has assumed a central and vital role on the cultural stage, with a history that spans the most inventive decades in fashion and taste, and in the arts and society. Published to mark the magazine’s centenary, and accompanying a major exhibition, this book celebrates the twentieth century and beyond with an authoritative and discriminating eye. In more than 2,000 issues, British Vogue has acted as a cultural barometer, putting fashion in the context of the wider world – how we dress, how we entertain, what we eat, listen to, watch, who leads us, excites us and inspires us. The century’s most talented photographers, Lee Miller, Norman Parkinson, Cecil Beaton, Irving Penn, David Bailey, Snowdon and Mario Testino among them, have contributed to it. In 1916, when the First World War made transatlantic shipments of American Vogue impossible, its proprietor, Condé Nast, authorised a British edition. It was an immediate success, and over the following ten decades cover Provisional of uninterrupted publication continued to mirror its times – the austerity and optimism that followed two world wars, the ‘Swinging London’ scene 310 x 254 mm, 304 pages of the sixties, the radical seventies, the image-conscious eighties – and in Over 300 illustrations its second century remains at the cutting edge of photography and design.
