  • Reflections of Anglo-Saxon England
    Reflections of Anglo-Saxon England Exhibit Checklist Department of Special Collections | 976 Memorial Library University of Wisconsin–Madison | 728 State Street http://specialcollections.library.wisc.edu/ Exhibit July through September 2011 in conjunction with the biennial conference of the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists ©2011 Board of Regents of the University of Wisconsin System Image: Saxon chief from Sir Samuel Rush Meyrick, The costume of the original inhabitants of the British islands (London, 1815). Thordarson Collection Reflections of Anglo-Saxon England This exhibit in the Department of Special Collections explores the history, artifacts, and myths of Anglo-Saxon England and their many political and cultural uses. Featuring printed books from the 16th century through the present, the exhibit is designed to complement the biennial conference of the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists in Madison in summer 2011. Books on display, as listed here, highlight reflections of (and on) Anglo-Saxon England, including renderings of language of the period, depictions of archaeological finds, chronicles of the Christianization of Anglo-Saxon kingdoms, and accounts — whether sober or fanciful — of custom, dress, and battle. The impetus for the exhibit came from now professor emeritus John D. Niles, president in 2011 of the International Society of Anglo-Saxonists, who also brought numerous exhibit-worthy titles to our attention. The exhibit’s curator was Lynnette Regouby, dissertator in the Department of History of Science, University of Wisconsin-Madison, who was able to uncover many an illustrated treasure among the holdings of Special Collections, Memorial Library, and other campus libraries. Exhibit installation was the work of staff members and student assistants in Special Collections, especially Barbara Richards, Susan Stravinski, Steven Lange, Lotus Norton-Wisla, Rachael Page, Crystal Schmidt, and Alex Sorensen.

In July 2017, the two listed buildings on the Site (including Nos. 13 & 14) were the subject of an enhanced listing review (see Appendix A). 1.03 This review concluded that due to fire damage Nos. 13 & 14 Castle Street, were no longer considered to be of special interest and were excluded from the listing. An application was subsequently made for the demolition of Nos. 13 & 14 and this was implemented in late 2018. The review also concluded that the north (rear) section and the interior of the Earl de Grey Public House were not of special interest and they were excluded from the listing. 1.04 The purpose of this statement is to satisfy the requirement of paragraph 189 of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), which indicates that applicants should provide a description of the significance of any heritage assets affected by their proposals (including any contribution made by their setting).

  • Kingston Upon Hull City Council Historic Environment Strategy 2010
    Kingston upon Hull City Council Historic Environment Strategy 2010 – 2015 1 Part One Strategy The Purpose of this document is to set out a comprehensive and integrated Historic Environment Strategy for the City of Kingston upon Hull. The Strategy is primarily concerned with the planning, development, regeneration and management issues affecting the historic environment within the City of Kingston upon Hull. The scope of the strategy does not include heritage assets in their broader sense – assets such as museums, galleries, archives and collections, or local traditions and festivals, which are also important aspects of the City’s heritage. However, the future aspiration has to be to bring all aspects of the City’s heritage, under a single holistic all- encompassing strategy, so that a greater understanding of the historic asset can be formed. The Council has in the past been extremely successful in securing substantial levels of external funding for heritage-led regeneration activities and has supported these projects through its own capital programme. These projects have been managed and delivered by the City Council and its Partner organisations. Changing national policy, limited resources and funding opportunities dictate that in the future clear priorities must be established both in terms of developing the Council’s own heritage projects as well as providing support for projects led by others. It is therefore necessary for the Conservation strategy to provide a clear framework for investment in the City’s built heritage over the next few years. As future applications are made for external funding, a clear strategy will send an important message to funding bodies that the Council has a clear vision, established priorities and a framework for implementation in place.

  • EAST RIDING of YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave
    EAST RIDING OF YORKSHIRE HEARTH TAX ASSESSMENT MICHAELMAS 1672 by David and Susan Neave 1. INTRODUCTION This volume comprises the hearth tax returns for the historic East Riding of Yorkshire and the town and county of Hull.1 The East Riding, the smallest of the three Yorkshire ridings, covers some 750,000 acres (303,750 hectares). It is almost totally bounded by water with the Humber estuary to the south, the North Sea to the east, and the river Ouse to the west and south and river Derwent to the north. The boundary, around 200 miles in length, is only land- based for seven miles between York and Stamford Bridge and eight miles between Binnington Carr and North Cliff, Filey (Map 1).2 Hull, more correctly Kingston-upon-Hull, stands at the confluence of the river Hull and the Humber estuary. The riding divides into four main natural regions, the Yorkshire Wolds, Holderness, the Vale of York, and the Vale of Pickering (Map 2). The Yorkshire Wolds, a great crescent of chalk stretching from the Humber to the coast at Flamborough Head, is the most distinctive relief feature of the region. Essentially a high tableland of gently rolling downs dissected by numerous steep-sided dry valleys it reaches a maximum height of around 808 feet (246 metres) above sea-level near Garrowby Hill. At the coast the chalk cliffs rise up to 400 feet (120 metres). Along the western edge of the Wolds are the Jurassic Hills, a narrow band of limestone that broadens out to the north to form an area of distinctive scenery to the south of Malton.

  • Kingston Upon Hull Heritage Evidence Base
    Kingston upon Hull Heritage Evidence Base April 2014 Executive Summary It is generally agreed that the city of Hull has a distinct character, identity and sense of place, however it is more difficult to pinpoint exactly what it is that makes the city distinctive. To help in this task, the City Council and the Architecture Centre for Hull and the Humber Region (Arc) organised various events during summer 2009 to explore the concept of ‘Hullness’. Perhaps not surprisingly, no definitive view was reached and the debate continues. However, the responses to the events have highlighted some recurring themes and factors that contribute to the distinct character of the city. These are set out below. ‘Hullness’ has been concerned with ‘character’ in all its senses, including cultural, social, economic, environmental and physical aspects. However, for the purposes of this study, ‘character’ is concerned with the impact of the above elements on the built form of the city. The physical setting of Hull in a flat landscape where the River Hull joins the Humber Estuary means that expanses of water and sky are characteristic features of the city. Hull is an industrial port city located some distance away from other large towns and set in the rural East Riding of Yorkshire. Traditionally it has looked to the sea and continental Europe rather than the rest of England. Unlike most other northern and midland cities, it is not part of a conurbation. This relative isolation has given it an independent and distinctive character. Trade with Baltic, Dutch and French ports over the centuries has influenced the built form, architecture, economy and culture of the city.

  • The Reception of Ancient Greek Tragedy in England 1660- 1760
    THE RECEPTION OF ANCIENT GREEK TRAGEDY IN ENGLAND 1660- 1760 Michael Waters, University College London Submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 1 I, Michael Waters confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT The dissertation enquires into some of the forms that the reception of ancient Greek tragedy took in England between 1660 and 1760. It looks at those critics and translators who engaged most with ancient Greek tragedy and whose engagement was accompanied by an interest in ancient theory and native English literature. Chapter 1, after examining works by George Gascoigne and Francis Kinwelmershe, Thomas Goffe, Thomas May and Christopher Wase, considers William Joyner’s original tragedy The Roman Empress (1670) in order to see what use Joyner made of Sophocles’ Oedipus and Euripides’ Hippolytus and Medea. Chapter 2 turns to the writings of, especially, John Dryden, Thomas Rymer, John Dennis and Charles Gildon, who were the most prolific and interesting commentators on dramatic theory in England at this time, and assesses their different perspectives on the questions of tragedy and the modern stage. Chapter 3 addresses separately comments on ancient Greek tragedy contained in Jeremy Collier’s attack on contemporary English theatre in A Short View of the Immorality, and Profaneness of the English Stage (1698) and in replies to him. Chapter 4 concentrates on Lewis Theobald’s translations of Sophocles’ Electra (1714) and Oedipus (1715) and how his views of ancient Greek tragedy influenced, and were influenced by, his interest in Shakespeare, an edition of whose plays he published in 1733.

By Colonel Sir Charles H. Nugent, K.C.B., R.E. Sir CnAELES Nugent : Before I commence, I should say, in justice to those who have worked on this subject, that I hare availed myself largely of the labours of those who have gone before me, especially of General Collinson and of Captain in justice to myself I say I am no plagiarist, inasmuch as I <3olomb ; but may commenced to consider this subject some eight or nine years ago, under the directions of our Chairman, with whom it is pleasant to me to be associated again, after a brief interval, on this occasion. Four years ago, a noble lord who had been Under-Secretary of State for War, and who is now Viceroy of the Dominion of Canada, presiding in this Institution at a discussion which followed a paper upon "The Adaptation of Ocean Steamers to War Purposes," made use of these words, " I am not going to enter into party politics, particularly at a moment when the political atmosphere is so bracing and invigorating as it is now, but I am bound to say, it is not so much "party feeling from which these (defensive) questions suffer, as the apathy and indifference of a large section of the English public." The state of the political atmosphere is to the full as bracing and invigorating now as when these words were uttered, but by the salutary practice of this Institution party politics are excluded from these meetings, and I am actuated by no party motive to take advantage of the present occasion, which seems opportune for an attempt to stir up the English Public to throw off the apathy and indifference with which they habitually regard all matters connected with " The Defence of the Empire." When I reflect upon the gravity of the issues involved, I am lost in amazement at the indifference of the Public.

Finglass The start of Sophocles’ Electra sees the return of Orestes to his native Mycenae, accompanied by his faithful slave, the Paedagogus. Years before, Orestes’ mother, Clytemnestra, together with her lover, Aegisthus, had killed his father, Agamemnon, on his return from the Trojan War; the young Orestes was spirited away to friends in Phocis by his elder sister, Electra. Now he has returned, ordered by Apollo to avenge by stealth his father’s murder. He declares that he and the Paedagogus will now make offerings at his father’s tomb; after that, the Paedagogus will come back to the house and announce that Orestes had been killed at the Pythian Games at Delphi.
