The Diocese of Carlisle, 1814-1855

The notebooks of bishops of Carlisle reveal a wealth of detail concerning clerical life at the time. The volume presents three nineteenth-century manuscripts originally created for the use of bishops of Carlisle: Walter Fletcher's "Diocesan Book", written between 1814 and 1845, and Bishop Hugh Percy's two parish notebooks, compiled between 1828 and 1855. Based on visitations, and on articles of enquiry now lost, they add to a growing body of knowledge relating to the condition of the Church in the first half of the nineteenth century, providing a unique record of livings in the Carlisle diocese prior to its expansion in 1856. In particular, they illuminate the concerns of two significant cle...

Was the century of Voltaire also the century of women?

Some of these developments caused immense confusion and suffering; others greatly expanded women’s opportunities and worldview – long before the various women’s suffrage movements were more than a glimmer on the horizon. This study pays attention to queens as well as commoners; respectable working women as well as prostitutes; women physicists and mathematicians as well as musicians and actresses; feminists as well as their critics. The result is a rich and morally com...

Hitting Town and City Sugar

'Hitting town' opens with Ralph, a student drop-out from Birmingham University, dropping in unexpectedly on his sister, Clare, in her Leicester bed-sit. Together they decide to 'hit the town'. But against a background of commercial radio, city-centre precincts, Wimpy Bars and dangerous practical jokes, the incestuous relationship that develops between them seems the only way of affirming their vitality... | 'City sugar', a companion piece, focuses on Leonard Brazil, the local disc-jockey heard briefly in the first play, as he dispenses milk chocolate pap over the Leicester air-waves. The worlds of commercial radio and teeny-boppers collide with the mounting of the grotesque Competition of the Century, into which Brazil pours all his self-haltred and his contempt for his Miss Average Listener.
