Two Diplomas Awarded to George Joseph Bell Now in the Possession of the Royal Medical Society
Res Medica, Volume 268, Issue 2, 2005 Page 1 of 6 Two Diplomas Awarded to George Joseph Bell now in the Possession of the Royal Medical Society Matthew H. Kaufman Professor of Anatomy, Honorary Librarian of the Royal Medical Society Abstract The two earliest diplomas in the possession of the Royal Medical Society were both awarded to George Joseph Bell, BA Oxford. One of these diplomas was his Extraordinary Membership Diploma that was awarded to him on 5 April 1839. Very few of these Diplomas appear to have survived, and the critical introductory part of his Diploma is inscribed as follows: Ingenuus ornatissimusque Vir Georgius Jos. Bell dum socius nobis per tres annos interfuit, plurima eademque pulcherrima, hand minus ingenii f elicis, quam diligentiae insignis, animique ad optimum quodque parati, exempla in medium protulit.

The Life and Teaching of William Sharpey (1802-1880) 'Father of Modern Physiology' in Britain
THE LIFE AND TEACHING OF WILLIAM SHARPEY (1802-1880) 'FATHER OF MODERN PHYSIOLOGY' IN BRITAIN by D. W. TAYLOR PART I I. INTRODUCTION THE TITLE-PHRASE was used by E. A. Schifer,1 one of Sharpey's latest and most distinguished pupils, who throughout his life acknowledged his debt to his old teacher and who eventually added the name of Sharpey to his own.2 Such a phrase may be historically suspect but it represents an opinion subscribed to by many others, not only his pupils and colleagues. Burdon Sanderson, who succeeded him, wrote: 'If I, or any of the men I have mentioned, were asked to what circumstances the un- questionable productiveness of the University College School in scientific men is due, all would I think unhesitatingly attribute it to the influence of one man, Dr. Sharpey.'3 Much later, A. V. Hill said of him: 'by Sharpey's example, other medical schools were encouraged to start proper laboratories and adequate instruction in Physiology . to his fine judgement of men and to his power of inspiring them to original work, the present high position of British Physiology is due . .'.4 The British Medical Journal in its obituary notice, stated that 'for years he was the greatest teacher of anatomy and physiology in the country, occupying a position here equal to that held by Johannes Miiller in Germany.'" In his History of the Physiological Society, Schiifer (by then, Sir Edward Sharpey-Schafer) wrote that during a period when other experimental sciences were rapidly progressing, Physiology in this country could show no names worthy to be mentioned with those of Magendie, Bernard, MUller, Helmholtz or Ludwig... -

BY SIR EDWARD SHARPEY-SCHAFER, F.R.S. Other
HISTORY OF THE PHYSIOLOGICAL SOCIETY, I876-I926 BY SIR EDWARD SHARPEY-SCHAFER, F.R.S. (Professor of Physiology in the University of Edinburgh.) IN the middle part of the nineteenth century Great Britain was far behind France and Germany in the development of Physiology. We had no pure physiologists and it was considered that any surgeon or physician was competent to teach the science. Indeed, long after this, the subject was in many medical schools left in the hands of a member of the hospital staff, usually a young man, who carried on clinical teaching as well. Hence, during a period of time when other experimental sciences were rapidly progressing, Physiology in this country could show no names worthy to be mentioned with those of Magendie, Bernard, Muller, Helmholtz, or Ludwig, to mention but a few of the brilliant physiologists of France and Germany. In one place only- University College, London-was a lamp kept burning; the lamp was that of William Sharpey. Although Sharpey had received a purely anatomical training, he had manifested his physiological leaning by his investigations regarding the action of cilia, and he early familiarised himself with the microscopic appearances of, and changes in, living cells, as well as with the structure of animal tissues. This led to his having a wider outlook than that of the pure anatomist of that day, and it was a happy event for the future of Physiology in England that Sharpey was invited to occupy the newly instituted chair of General Anatomy and Physiology at University College, London, in 1836. -

The year 1985 marks the third centenary of the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes, which by removing the right to freedom of worship stimulated a mass migration of the French Protestant community, and is also the centenary of the foundation of the Huguenot Society of London. The Religious Background The term Huguenot, of doubtful etymology, had become established by the 1560s as a popular name for the French Protestants, or, more accurately, Calvinists. In England, however, it has customarily been used in a wider sense as a generic term to cover all Protestant refugees , including those from the Low Countries; this usage has been followed for the purposes of this exhibition. It has seemed reasonable to include refugees who arrived from the 16th century onwards, preceding the main wave of the late 17th century, and to say something about Protestant medical men who never left France, including some who eventually abjured their faith. Protestant emigration from the Low Countries in the late 16th century was in reaction to persecution by the Spanish rulers of the provinces. -
Building the Westminster Clock
Big Ben and the history of the clock tower at the Palace of Westminster. (updated) By Heather Hobden, The Cosmic Elk. Part One The first clock tower at the Palace of Westminster was built between 1365 and 1367. It stood by the north wall at the end of the King's Gallery, immediately opposite the entrance to the Great Hall. The bell of the Westminster clock weighed just over 4 tons and was one of three ordered by King Edward III from (apply named) John Belleyetere. The charge in the Pipe Roll 41 of 1366-7 was £246-l6s.-8d. The clock was replaced by a new one by Agnes Dalavan in 1427. (An early example of a lady clockmaker, and not the only one). A large part of Westminster palace burned down in 1512. Just after King Henry VIII and Queen Katherine had moved in. They moved to Wolsey's residence of York House which was nearby. Wolsey did not own it, he was occupying it as he was Archbishop of York. That did not stop Henry VIII from taking it over permanently, and rebuilding it. He did this regardless of the neighbours. A people were living nearby were upset and angry at the road, their houses and their shops being destroyed to make York House more palatial. The palace was later called Whitehall. Westminster Palace had been rebuilt but was no longer used by the King as his residence. It was now used only for Parliament meetings and government offices. As part of the rebuilding, in 1530, the clock was renovated, and its four clock faces were painted and re- guilded. -

Following this, the practice of town planning enters as a providential and cultivating force, guiding and articulating a scientific adjustment of the disorder created by industrial urbanisation, in the direction of an ordered and governable environment. This narrative forms the basis for what I will call the ‘developmentality’ of town planning. This thesis is a comprehensive critique and re-examination of the historical concepts of planning and urbanisation from the standpoint of ‘developmentality’. The thesis takes a critical approach to the history of British urbanisation, going against the grain of conventional planning histories, which tend to emphasise a liberal narrative of teleological progression and achievement, with clear institutional and juridical markers. On the contrary, the following thesis argues for a new epistemology of town planning that emphasises the extent to which it has been a discourse on the very biological nature of the modern city and the biopolitical governance of its spaces. -
