So sorry to miss the launch of this handsome MUP volume in the place itself on Monday. Contains my account of the history between 1830 and 1914 explaining both why Dean Cowie thought it possessed scarce any features of a cathedral beyond the name and why he was wrong!

1/2 Very sad to hear of the death of John Walsh. For a whole generation of Oxford trained historians of modern British religion he was our mentor, friend and supporter, modelling a kind and generous approach to scholarship with no sacrifice of rigour. I owe him so much.

Excited about our festive seminar this evening (mince pies and mulled wine on offer!) to discuss Bill Jacob’s 'Religious Vitality in Victorian London'. 17:15, KCL - Virginia Woolf Building (VWB) and hybrid (DM if you need the link)!

You can now read @MBinAmsterdam's introduction to our latest special issue 'Historians in the Study of Religion\s' Wiley Humanities onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/14…

On 29 March, we welcome the authors of the new important study "The Humanist Movement in Modern Britain" to the ISHASH Webinar Series. Brown, Nash & Lynch will present and discuss their work on a 1 hour zoom seminar. As always: all are welcome!

Of interest to many historians of religion who follow us, I am sure.
