The Norfolk Archaeological & Historical Research Group
Norfolk Archaeological & Historical Research Group N.A.H.R.G. Text Box: The History of Norwich Edited by Carole Rawcliffe and Richard Wilson Two Volumes, Hambledon & London 2004 An introduction to the project. Celebrated for centuries as England's second city, as a major centre for the production of some of the country's finest cloth and as the capital of a prosperous agricultural region, Norwich boasts a truly remarkable history. Its unrivalled combination of archival, archaeological and architectural sources offers a treasure trove of information about a long and fascinating past, yet, surprisingly, the last full-scale study to exploit this rich material appeared over 250 years ago. A team of 33 historians and archaeologists has now made good these years of neglect to produce a comprehensive two-volume study, which traces the city's s development from Anglo-Saxon times to the present day. The first volume, entitled Medieval Norwich, takes us from the very earliest settlement of the site as a successor to the Roman Venta Icenorum through to the middle of the sixteenth century, marked by the turbulent and bloody events surrounding Kett’s Rebellion. The second volume, perhaps unimaginatively entitled Norwich Since 1550, brings the story right up to date, culminating in Peter Townroe’s chapter on Norwich since 1945. The work has been edited by Carole Rawcliffe and Richard Wilson, both of whom have previously written and produced a number of individual studies on aspects of the city’s history. Richard Wilson is Professor Emeritus of Economic and Social History at UEA and is chairman of the Norfolk Record Society. He was also for many years Director of the Centre of East Anglian Studies at UEA. Carole Rawcliffe is Professor of Medieval History and a former Director of the Centre of East Anglian Studies at UEA, having previously worked in London as co-editor of the medieval volumes of The History of Parliament. Locally Carole is perhaps best known for her history of the Great Hospital, Norwich, one of England's oldest charitable institutions. Amongst the other thirty or so contributors to both volumes the membership will be gratified to find many names they will recognize. Volume one, the slimmer of the two works, contains chapters by Brian Ayers, David King, Elizabeth Rutledge and Andy Wood. The second volume, containing no less than nineteen chapters, includes the work of Christopher Barringer, John Pound, Mark Knights, Michael Sanderson and Steven Cherry. With chapters covering subjects as diverse as Norwich before the Black Death (Elizabeth Rutledge) and Medical Care since 1750 (Steven Cherry) the true scope of the project becomes apparent. The History of Norwich paints a compelling picture of survival through periods of boom and slump, rise and decline. It describes the environment, religious lives, politics, health, pleasures and pastimes of generations of residents, great and small. The city's great medieval heritage, its later tradition of radicalism and of "doing different", its contribution to education, medicine, commerce and sport figure prominently among the many topics covered in over a thousand pages. As can be imagined with such as wide ranging study it was felt that it would be impossible to do justice to the work by reviewing it in the normal manner. Instead it was decided to select a number of chapters from each volume and have each reviewed individually. The resulting selection of reviews may at least go some way to giving NAHRG members a clearer picture of the variety and depth of research involved in this monumental work. Text Box: Q57 INDEX
