they are known certainly to have resided. A number of chapters cover the Elizabethan and Jacobean periods. First, Jane Eade delineates the important convergence of portraiture and heraldry, a link that she underscores with the little-known fact that William Segar, Garter King of Arms (d. ), was both a herald and a portrait painter. Eade provides some interesting examples of heraldic symbolism from this context, beautifully illustrated. KathrynWill demonstrates that the wide interest in, and study of, heraldry by the aspiring new men of this era led to a popularisation of heraldic parody in literature, some of it with decidedly sexual undertones. Adrian Ailes considers how popular awareness of heraldic symbolism spilled over into satirical artwork well into the eighteenth century. Continuing the literary theme, Fiona Robertson notes the popular use of heraldry in nineteenth-century fiction, making the interesting observation that the sloppy use of the term ‘crest’ instead of coat of arms saw its origins in Sir Walter Scott’s novels. Shaun Evans deals with the Five Courts of Mostyn in Tudor Wales. Michael Snodin provides a synthesis of Horace Walpole’s interest in heraldry as displayed at Strawberry Hill; Walpole enjoyed creating heraldic ‘pedigrees’ for his cherished objects as a means of vaunting previous distinguished owners. Peter Lindfield considers what drove the eighteenthcentury Lancashire saddler Thomas Barritt to become an important collector of heraldic art. Clive Cheesman gives us a fascinating insight into the rising interest in the swastika in the early twentieth century, such that it rather unexpectedly came to be used in English heraldry. Interest was sparked by Schliemann’s discoveries at Troy, following which the device became elevated to ‘an unprecedented pitch of semiotic potency’. This led the Norfolk historian, Walter Rye, to adopt a shield charged with three swastikas, which to modern eyes appear disturbingly National Socialist. The volume is rounded off by Patric Dickinson’s consideration of personal symbolism displayed on coats of arms, with examples ranging from the medieval to the modern. This beautifully illustrated volume both titillates and inspires. It successfully captures the theme of the symposium, which sought to bring together historians frommany different disciplines in an appreciation of the diverse roles that heraldry has played over the centuries.
众所周知,他们确实居住过。许多章节涵盖了伊丽莎白和雅各宾时期。首先,Jane Eade描绘了肖像画和纹章学的重要融合,她强调了这一联系与鲜为人知的事实,即Garter King of Arms(d。), 既是传令官又是肖像画家。Eade从这个背景中提供了一些有趣的纹章象征主义的例子,插图精美。KathrynWill证明,这个时代有抱负的新人对纹章学的广泛兴趣和研究导致了纹章学模仿在文学中的普及,其中一些带有明显的性色彩。阿德里安·艾尔斯(Adrian Ailes)思考了大众对纹章象征主义的认识是如何渗透到18世纪的讽刺艺术中的。Fiona•罗伯逊(Fiona Robertson)继续文学主题,指出了19世纪小说中流行使用的纹章,并提出了一个有趣的观察,即草率使用“徽章”一词而不是盾徽,这一术语起源于沃尔特·斯科特爵士的小说。肖恩·埃文斯(Shaun Evans)与都铎王朝威尔士的莫斯廷五法庭(Five Courts of Mostyn)打交道。Michael Snodin在草莓山展示了Horace Walpole对纹章学的兴趣;沃波尔喜欢为他心爱的物品创造纹章“谱系”,以此来炫耀以前的杰出主人。彼得·林德菲尔德(Peter Lindfield)思考了是什么驱使18世纪的兰开夏郡鞍匠托马斯·巴里特(Thomas Barritt)成为纹章艺术的重要收藏家。克莱夫·奇斯曼(Clive Cheesman)让我们深入了解了20世纪初人们对纳粹标记日益增长的兴趣,以至于它出人意料地被用于英国纹章学。Schliemann在特洛伊的发现引发了人们的兴趣,随后该设备被提升到“前所未有的符号效力”。这导致诺福克历史学家Walter Rye采用了一个带有三个纳粹党徽的盾牌,在现代人看来,这看起来令人不安的国家社会主义者。帕特里克·狄金森(Patric Dickinson)对盾徽上显示的个人象征意义的思考为这本书画上了句号,从中世纪到现代都有例子。这本插图精美的书既令人兴奋又令人振奋。它成功地抓住了研讨会的主题,该研讨会试图将来自许多不同学科的历史学家聚集在一起,以欣赏纹章学在几个世纪以来所扮演的不同角色。

This paper examines the story, hitherto neglected by scholarship, of the antiquarian artist and architect John Buckler (1770–1851) through a remarkable cache of his letters at the Bodleian Library. Most of the letters relate to Buckler’s attempts to be elected a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries. Having twice been blackballed in 1808 and 1809, he canvassed Britain’s leading antiquarian figures for support. With the blackballing of the architect James Wyatt in 1797 frequently alluded to, Buckler’s blackballing was the result of a cabal against him led by Sir Joseph Banks and Samuel Lysons, which had to do with both factionalism – ie his closeness to the preservationist faction led by Richard Gough and John Carter, termed the Carter school – and the Society’s onslaught against professionals. His eventual success in 1810 institutionalised his practice, allowed him entry into polite society and brought him closer to aristocratic patronage. The remainder of the Bodleian letters relate to Buckler’s topographical work recording medieval buildings across the UK, showing how he took on the revisionist medievalist project promoted by the Carter school. The article will explain Buckler’s role in the developing discourses of antiquarianism and the Gothic Revival, and how his association with the Carter school laid the foundations for the work of the Buckler dynasty. Over three generations, in line with the family name (meaning ‘to protect’), they sought to embody the idea of the architect-antiquary as a protector.
本文通过博德利图书馆收藏的一批著名的古董艺术家兼建筑师约翰·巴克勒(John Buckler,1770–1851)的信件,探讨了迄今为止被学术界忽视的故事。大多数信件都与巴克勒试图当选为古董协会会员有关。在1808年和1809年两次遭到反对后,他游说英国顶尖的古董学家支持。1797年,建筑师詹姆斯·怀亚特(James Wyatt)经常被提及对巴克勒的反对,巴克勒的抵制是由约瑟夫·班克斯爵士(Sir Joseph Banks)和塞缪尔·莱森(Samuel Lysons)领导的反对他的阴谋集团的结果,这既与派系斗争有关,也与他与理查德·高夫(Richard Gough)和约翰·卡特(John Carter)领导的被称为卡特学派的保护主义派系的亲密关系有关,以及协会对专业人士的攻击有关。他在1810年的最终成功使他的实践制度化,使他进入了上流社会,并使他更接近贵族的庇护。博德利信件的其余部分与巴克勒记录英国中世纪建筑的地形工作有关,展示了他是如何接受卡特学派推动的修正主义中世纪主义项目的。本文将解释巴克勒在古物主义和哥特式复兴话语发展中的作用,以及他与卡特学派的联系如何为巴克勒王朝的工作奠定基础。在三代人的时间里,根据姓氏(意思是“保护”),他们试图体现建筑师古董作为保护人的理念。

Sir Henry Spelman, a founding member of the Society of Antiquaries of London who may be considered the doyen of English antiquaries, made a substantial contribution through his many publications, particularly his Glossarium of 1626, his Concilia of 1639 and, together with his son John, the Psalterium Latino-Saxonicum of 1640. He pioneered the methodical study of historical documents, compiling a guide to the abbreviations and contractions found in medieval manuscripts, and, because some of the documents are in Old English, he made a plan to prepare an Anglo-Saxon grammar and established a lectureship in Anglo-Saxon at the University of Cambridge. After his death his books and papers were dispersed in stages, many of them being bought by subsequent antiquaries. The printed part of this paper surveys the history of his books and papers, with particular attention to his letters, which have never been listed or presented in an organized form despite calls for this to be done since 1930. The supplementary part (online) offers a conspectus of the letters in chronological order with indications of where they are found and of their more important contents. They throw considerable light on how he worked and on his relationship with those who helped him. Themes running through the letters include Spelman’s publications and the preparations for them, the Glossarium, the Concilia and the Anglo-Saxon Psalterium, the reading and transcription of Anglo-Saxon manuscripts, the preparation of an Anglo-Saxon grammar and dictionary and various scholarly enquiries.

Lord Frederick Campbell Charter xxi 5 is the only surviving English document that still has an authentic, legible, pre-Conquest seal attached to it. The text purports to be a writ of Edward the Confessor (1003x5–1066) granting a slew of rights to Christ Church Cathedral, Canterbury. We examined the writ using multispectral imaging to recover layers of erased text. Many scholars have noted that the text of the writ was altered on at least one occasion. Now, multispectral imaging confirms that there were multiple layers of erasures, even more than previously anticipated. The original writ may have been inscribed on reused parchment. This can be used as evidence for the conditions (and even the immense quantity) in which writs were produced during Edward’s reign. Alternatively – or additionally – the writ’s multiple alterations could suggest that it was rewritten repeatedly after the Conquest, during various phases of Canterbury’s post-Conquest property disputes. The results confirm Nicholas Brooks’ hypothesis that at one stage the text was altered from referring to the rights to the archbishop alone (in the singular), to instead refer to the whole community at Christ Church (in the plural). Taken together, these results reveal shifts in legal thinking in Canterbury between 1066 and 1100, while demonstrating the enduring authority of Edward the Confessor’s seal. These results also show the potential for using multispectral imaging to illuminate – literally – the history of manuscript production.

Billy Smith and Charley Eaton were mudlarks in London. In 1857 they began to manufacture counterfeit antiquities. Their creations displayed many significant errors and anachronisms, and some archaeologists were immediately sceptical. Nevertheless, other leading experts were convinced that Billy and Charley’s supposed discoveries were authentic archaeological finds. The ensuing debate resulted in an inconclusive court case. Eventually a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of London used subterfuge to expose the fraud. Even after this, Billy Smith and Charley Eaton continued producing forgeries for another decade. This paper explores how the forgeries were made, why they generated controversy, how the fraud was detected and how Billy Smith and Charley Eaton could produce their forgeries over such a long time-span.

In 1998 a massive gold signet ring was found by metal detecting in the parish of Raglan, Monmouthshire (Gwent), close to Raglan Castle. Now generally known as the Raglan ring, it is a remarkable example of late medieval goldsmiths’ work. This paper considers its motifs, legend, date and stylistic affinities. Its findspot is close to the castle-building programme at Raglan continued by William Herbert (executed 1469), who projected his position as premier supporter of the House of York in a variety of ways. Possible ownership is discussed, as is its wider context (including newly discovered signet rings from Wales).

Anglican Worship, published in , and found expression in the innovative layout of St Paul’s, Bow Common, , by Robert Maguire and Keith Murray, where the use of a ciborium and corona defines the sacred space without being a barrier. Those churches that have retained their screen now tend to use them as a reredos, or backdrop to the nave altar, which relegates the chancel to being a weekday chapel or simply unused space. In the High Middle Ages the object that was most visible to the laity was not the high altar but the great rood, flanked by St Mary and St John, above the chancel screen. Changing liturgical fashions over the subsequent centuries (initiated by the Reformation) and what the writer Aymer Vallance, in his English Church Screens (), called ‘the incontinent lech for vistas’, something alien to the medieval mind, have gradually rendered the chancel screen obsolete to modern liturgical requirements, although in the process something vital has been lost. Peter Doll ends his piece with this appeal to those charged with the internal ordering of our churches:
