The manuscript remained in the hands of the York guild through until the late eighteenth century by which time the guild was largely defunct. The subsequent history of the manuscript until it came into the hands of the British Library in 1881 is well-traced. Medical historians would wish there to be more detail on the medieval images; there are only a few pages on each of them despite their vividness and wide usage in publications. It really did not make sense to compare the image of the four temperaments with a very odd series of images from the much earlier Liber Cosmographiae of John de Foxton, despite it being also a York product. There are contemporary continental examples that might have been more useful to examine. The editor often complains that there are mistakes throughout the manuscript, for example in the labels to images, but it might have been more productive to see them as meaningful variations. The royal portraits seem to get more historical and artistic analysis than the medieval medical images. Both medical historians and York specialists would like to know more about the early-modern careers of the practitioners who left their names in these folios. At times the reluctance to provide more examples of guild business in York is frustrating. There is an intriguing graph in an appendix showing the fluctuating numbers of apprentices in the guild over three centuries, but it is not really analysed. The manuscript would seem to be a gold mine for future prosopographical studies of York medics, especially in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The provision of the names as an alphabetized list of people, including all their mentions together, does make the book very useful for further research, although the decision to take them out of their context in the manuscript does break normal conventions of editing a manuscript. Despite a few oddities, which might suggest some underlying competing goals, this is a fascinating volume that is after all an edition, not a monograph, meaning that space was limited. It comes out as one of the first publications in an attractive new series in medical history, a joint venture by Boydell and York Medieval Press. These volumes are beautifully printed and bound, with very good quality reproductions of images. This book would be a handsome addition to any shelf, especially for anyone interested in the guild history of York.","PeriodicalId":53945,"journal":{"name":"Northern History","volume":"59 1","pages":"309 - 311"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43819030","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, the factors shaping new academic developments, especially in the humanities, are under-researched. This paper looks at the development of teaching and research in the Modern Languages at the University of Leeds during the First World War, a period that was pivotal in the creation of new departments and programmes in many universities. Using extensive archival sources, the paper examines the pressures that led to the creation of new departments and the interplay of local and national influences that stimulated such change. Tensions are identified, such as that between employers urging an emphasis on the spoken language necessary for trade and commerce, and an ‘academic’ perspective that favoured more linguistic study and work on literature or history. Other factors, such as funding issues, institutional leadership, links with other educational institutions, staffing and student recruitment are also considered. In conclusion, the paper sheds light not only on developments in the Modern Languages, but also on the working of universities in the first half of the twentieth century.","PeriodicalId":53945,"journal":{"name":"Northern History","volume":"59 1","pages":"116 - 136"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-03-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41343014","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Further, it also played an important but overlooked part in the transition to a county-wide police force following the 1856 County and Borough Police Act. Rather than being on the wrong side of history, the superintending constable system in the West Riding was an important part of a complex and evolving pattern of policing. Misleading distinctions between ‘old’ and ‘new’ policing obscure the realities of police reform in which continuities, downplayed by reformers at Westminster, played a crucial role.","PeriodicalId":53945,"journal":{"name":"Northern History","volume":"59 1","pages":"98 - 115"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45996096","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As such it was produced and intensively used at the peak of the popularity of Bede’s historical text in medieval England, which Antonia Gransden and R.H.C. Davis long ago linked to the renewal of monasticism in the North in the long twelfth century. This essay explores how this manuscript, which has been accepted to be of northern provenance, fits into this wider context. It interrogates the evidence provided by additions to the manuscript and annotations of the text itself to argue that this copy of the Historia Ecclesiastica, which has hitherto not been linked to a specific religious house, was in the possession of the canons at Hexham from shortly after their re-formation as an Augustinian community in 1113 until the Dissolution. In doing so it demonstrates how, against the wider backdrop of the Historia Ecclesiastica as an inspiration for religious renewal in the North, the interests of the canons of Hexham in the text in the twelfth century were motivated by specific issues of jurisdiction.","PeriodicalId":53945,"journal":{"name":"Northern History","volume":"59 1","pages":"28 - 51"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-01-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43664789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
