Another highlight from my perspective will be the lecture on the 20<sup>th<\/sup>-century tithe \u2018war\u2019 in Kent, these disputes shine an excellent light on social relations in the countryside in the inter-war years at a time when local as well as national politics were extremely volatile. Talking of politics, there will be a bumper clutch of events associated with the celebration of Magna Carta in June 2015, including a two-day conference on the 5 and 6 June, and there are more details on the Centre\u2019s webpages. The following weekend will see further activities and these will involve a procession on Saturday 13 June. Finally, I don\u2019t want to leave out the Centre\u2019s archaeologists who will be launching the first of an annual series of lectures in February. So as well as the Becket lecture, the Centre will have the new Lambarde lecture on 18 February 2015 \u2013 fantastic!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having attended a planning meeting of the Centre yesterday, I thought it was highly appropriate to record that things are moving on the Great War study day scheduled for a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6665,"featured_media":96,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[822,817],"tags":[25,85,9,29,13,37,89,17,77,21],"class_list":["post-94","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog-posts","category-news","tag-agrarian-history","tag-archaeology","tag-canterbury","tag-community-history","tag-first-world-war","tag-joan-thirsk","tag-magna-carta","tag-martin-watts","tag-workshops","tag-wwi"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"authorName":"Sheila Sweetinburgh","featuredImage":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/445\/2014\/12\/cantcathshrine2.jpg","postExcerpt":"Having attended a planning meeting of the Centre yesterday, I thought it was highly appropriate to record that things are moving on the Great War study day scheduled for a [&hellip;]","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6665"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=94"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":925,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/94\/revisions\/925"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/96"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=94"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=94"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/kenthistory\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=94"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
