From the Director of Development It’s my pleasure to welcome you to this, the eighteenth edition of Once a Caian..., in which we mourn the loss of our best-known Fellow, probably the most famous scientist in the world, and mark with gratitude the retirement of our Master and Senior Bursar. Earlier this academic year we also lost Professor Roger Carpenter (1973). At Roger’s memorial service in June, the President read from one of John Donne’s Devotions upon Emergent Occasions, ‘No man is an island...’. The College is diminished by such losses, but it continues, now for 670 years. Individuals are shaped by it and play their part in shaping it for a year or three – or, like our Senior Fellow, Michael Prichard, for almost 70 years. Caius is so much greater than the sum of its parts because we all remain part of it for the rest of our lives. Once a Caian... ...always a Caian. The College’s continuity is reflected in our mutual sense of belonging. The main themes of this issue are history and travel. We reappraise the achievements of John Caius (1529) and William Harvey (1593); we learn about a Roman theatre and sundial unearthed by our DoS in Classics, Alessandro Launaro (2013); we hear the story of the meeting our man at the UN, Francis Vendrell (1964) had with the fearsome founder of the Taliban in Afghanistan. I report on some continuing responsibilities of the College which date back to medieval times. We hear from two young scientists who have been on a life-changing voyage to Antarctica and we celebrate the rare award of the Pushkin Medal to Professor Polly Blakesley, for arranging a rich cultural exchange with Russia. We congratulate Duncan Maskell (1979) on his appointment as Vice-Chancellor of the University of Melbourne. Closer to home, we marvel at the spectacular winter light show, e-luminate Cambridge, curated by James Fox (2010) and we unveil a multi-million pound plan to equip the College with brand new kitchens fit for the 21st century. About the time you receive this issue, Caius will install Dr Pippa Rogerson as the College’s 43rd Master, the first woman ever to hold the position, only 40 years after the first admission of women as students and Fellows. Pippa inherits a College that is stronger and surer than ever about its purpose and values – and deeply grateful for the loyal and generous support it receives from Caians all around the world.

To the world at large, Stephen Hawking (1965) was a legend, an inspiration and the most celebrated scientist of our age, who defied medical science to fulfil his own destiny. www.gozerog.com

To Caians, he was also the most loved and treasured member of our College family.

ost of us need pen and paper or a calculator to solve any but the simplest mathematical problems. Stephen had to carry out incredibly complex calculations in his head. His imagination admitted no limits, reaching out to the edges of the universe and back to the beginning of time. His disability was a savage personal tragedy, but it seemed to open windows to other, compensatory abilities, denied to lesser mortals. In his own field of cosmology, he combined fresh insights in gravitational physics and quantum mechanics, to reassess

Royal Society, to call for urgent action on climate change, which he saw as the most serious threat to our planet and human existence. Space travel was another fascination. He believed humanity must establish settlements on other planets – and eagerly accepted an invitation to experience weightlessness in person, on a space travel training course in the USA. For that, he even missed the official opening of the Stephen Hawking Building at Caius by the University’s Chancellor, Prince Philip – but filmed a handsome apology for his absence, which was shown on screen at many times life-size. Stephen really was larger than life. He was well aware that he had become, for his grandchildren’s generation, almost a character from science fiction, with his mechanical voice and ubiquitous wheelchair. Several appearances as a cartoon character in The Simpsons and Futurama and one as the only living person ever to feature in Star Trek: The Next Generation conferred iconic, almost superheroic status on him, which appealed enormously to his sense of humour. Alan Fersht

the nature of black holes, those forbidding prisons which were once supposed to be so deep and dense that no matter, nor even light, could ever escape from them. Lecturing to alumni in Cambridge, thirty years ago, Stephen wondered fancifully if black holes might be a gateway to another universe, but then he found a chink in their armour: since they emit radiation (now fittingly known as Hawking Radiation) he showed that even black holes must inevitably shrink and fade away in the course of time. As his student and friend, Professor Fay Dowker, pointed out, in an eloquent tribute at his funeral in Cambridge, ‘This brilliant, creative, transformative discovery means that black holes – objects made of pure spacetime – obey the same laws of thermodynamics that govern chemical reactions and steam engines’. Time was a constant fascination for Stephen. In 1963, when he was 21, the doctors who first diagnosed his amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (or Lou Gehrig’s disease), gave him two years to live. Stephen added 53 years to that estimate – the exact span of his Fellowship at Caius. Time was also the subject of his best-selling book, A Brief History of Time, which he described as ‘probably the least-read, most-bought book ever’. He was generous with his own time, always ready to encourage anyone else who had been stricken by a disability. Indeed, he became a public champion for the rights of the disabled, always grateful for any help he had received, such as that from the National Health Service, which he supported strongly throughout his life. He was grateful to Caius, not only for his Fellowship, but for making special efforts to accommodate his needs, such as the lift that enabled him to dine regularly at High Table. He never forgot that, when he was taken ill in Switzerland in 1985 and lost the ability to speak, the College chartered a plane to fly him home and organised a roster of students to read to him in Addenbrooke’s Hospital. He repaid that debt many times over by agreeing to host an intimate, annual dinner for members of the Stephen Hawking Circle, donors who had given Caius at least £50,000. Each year, he spoke to about a dozen members and their partners about his life at Caius, sat patiently for photographs with each couple and presented them all with personally thumb-printed copies of A Brief History of Time. He used his celebrity to gain support for the many causes he believed in. This rather shy, reserved undergraduate, deprived of mobility and speech, became one of the great science communicators of our time. He joined forces with his old friend, Professor Martin Rees, the Astronomer Royal and former Master of Trinity and President of the

Notwithstanding his public persona and the statesmanlike support he gave to serious causes, Stephen was also a family man and dedicated to his children and grandchildren. The exceptional stresses he endured would have tested any marriage and his story was sympathetically told in the feature film The Theory of Everything, starring Eddie Redmayne and based on Jane Hawking’s memoir. After his death, his children chose to remember one of his gentler reflections: ‘It would not be much of a universe if it wasn’t home to the people you love’. The College was Stephen’s second home and it was wonderfully appropriate that six Caius Porters, led by the Head Porter Russell Holmes, carried his coffin into Great St Mary’s for the funeral, attended by the Master, Master-elect and most of the Fellowship. There will be many memorials to this remarkable man, in Cambridge and elsewhere. The tribute from Caius will take the form of a simple engraved flagstone set outside his old room, K2 in Caius Court, bearing, as he wished, his equation on the entropy of a black hole and the admonition: ‘Remember to look up at the stars ... and not down at your feet’. Stephen followed Isaac Newton in serving as Cambridge University’s Lucasian Professor of Mathematics, for thirty years, from 1979 to 2009. It is fitting that his mortal remains now lie beside Newton’s, in Westminster Abbey. At an age when most are setting out on life’s journey, Stephen was cruelly condemned to live in a black hole that few can truly imagine. He believed, however, not in God, but in the proposition: ‘where there is life, there is hope’ and he triumphed over adversity by proving that, however black the hole, a little radiation can escape from it. Stephen radiated more warmth, wit and wisdom than most of us could manage in a thousand lifetimes. We shall not see his like again.

Passing the I

n the coming academic year, Caius will have not only a new Master, Dr Pippa Rogerson (1986), the first woman to be Master in the 670 years of the College’s history, but also a new Senior Bursar, Robert Gardiner, who has been Bursar at Murray Edwards College (formerly New Hall). Their predecessors, Professor Sir Alan Fersht (1962) and Dr David Secher (1973) have been a formidable team for the past six years. As they both fully intended, they leave the College in an even stronger position than they found it. Alan says his first task as Master was to make sure David agreed to be Bursar: ‘I worked very hard to persuade him, because I thought he was the ideal choice’. David says: ‘I never aspired to be Bursar, because I don’t have the financial qualifications that most Colleges look for, but Alan was very persuasive. He said we would make a good team and he thought at that stage it would be helpful to have a Bursar who knew the College well.’ Both men are Caians through and

through. Alan says: ‘Caius has had an enormous effect on me, both in terms of success and in the happiness I’ve had in my life’. With impeccable timing, Alan became Master exactly fifty years after coming up to Caius as an undergraduate and he addressed graduands at his final Dr Caius Dinner fifty years after receiving his PhD here. He has an excellent rapport with students and at the start of the academic year, he exhorted all final year students to do especially well in the Tripos: ‘if not for you, then for me, because I want to go out in a blaze of glory!’ The tactic worked brilliantly because, as he announced at the Dinner, 93% of them graduated with either a First or a 2:1. Alan says he is ‘a long-term supporter of equal opportunities for women and I’m proud that we now fly the Rainbow Flag at Caius. I’m also particularly proud of the increase in the number of women Fellows during my time as Master and the election of four Honorary Fellows who are women:

each is distinguished in different ways, in academic and non-academic spheres.’ They are: the late Professor Patricia Crone (1990), the Islamic historian; Julie Deane (1984), the entrepreneur and founder of the Cambridge Satchel Company; Carolyn Fairbairn (1980), Director-General of the Confederation of British Industry; and Christine Langan (1984), Head of BBC Films. Alan was surprised to realise that what he will miss most is conferring degrees on graduates: ‘especially as I now have the Latin word-perfect! Well, you try saying “Te etiam admitto ad eundum gradum” 150 times!’ He is, however, looking forward to the next phase of his life ‘with real enthusiasm’. He is moving across Caius Court to K2, Stephen Hawking’s old room, where he hopes to be doing some teaching and organising seminars for undergraduates in Natural Sciences. ‘I’ll also be active on the Research Fellowship Committee and I’m setting up a fund to support Caian undergraduates and postgraduates in research projects and conference travel.’

For David Secher, looking back on his time as Senior Bursar, financial considerations were naturally uppermost, but he was also keen to use his experience in management to improve the managerial structure of the College. He appointed the College’s first communications officer, who has been most influential in modernising the College website and communications all round; and David rationalised the administration elsewhere. When the Domestic Bursar left, the College took the opportunity to change the system, so that the new Operations Director, Jennifer Philips (1996) would be independent on a day-today basis, but ultimately responsible to the Senior Bursar. Jennifer coxed the University Women’s Blue Boat and various Caius VIIIs. Her husband, Patrick Heck (1994), a consultant at Papworth Hospital, is also a Caian, as is her brother, so she too knew the College well. David has also ‘worked hard to ensure that communications between the Tutorial Office and the Bursary work efficiently’. He believes a top priority for any

Bursar is ‘to ensure that tutors can support students in need’. Early in his six years as Bursar, David declared, in the College’s campaign brochure, Caius to the Future: ‘Caius needs at least £200 million more in its endowment, at current valuations, if it is to continue to offer its students the same benefits that previous generations have enjoyed.’ He knew from day one that he would be retiring when he reached the statutory age of 70, so there was never any question of achieving the whole of that target during his own tenure, but he wanted to set the College on an ambitious and strategic course, based on sound principles of financial management. Caians of all ages rose to this challenge and gave generously. Over 27% make donations to the College every year – a higher percentage than any other Oxbridge college. Alan and David are hugely appreciative of this generosity. David also pays tribute to ‘the invaluable help of the Endowment Manager, Nicky Robert, and the

dedication of the Investments Committee. Six years on, the endowment has grown by £80 million, restoring Caius to its position as one of the four or five wealthiest Cambridge colleges.’ Another of the successes of their joint terms of office is the development of twelve new houses at Gillies Close, in east Cambridge. The name commemorates Sir Harold Gillies (1901) who developed many of the techniques of modern plastic surgery, when treating wounded soldiers in the First World War. The endowment has always held a mix of financial investments and property, but David joined forces with Alan, whose time on the Investment Committee had been marked by a strong preference for the latter, to exploit the College property, which has proved successful. When they took office, the endowment was worth about £120 million. It has grown every year and is now over £200 million, so considerable progress has been made – but they have thoughtfully left some work for their successors to do!

Windows of Opportunity by Mick Le Moignan (2004)

The Peacemaker: Francis Vendrell (1964) Dan White

ost of us have views on international affairs and world politics but few are able to play a significant part in the great game. Francis Vendrell (1964) used his studies in History and International Law to do just that, in the course of his 34-year career with the United Nations. In diplomacy and conflict resolution, Francis believes the windows of opportunity are few and farbetween: they tend to open without warning and will soon slam shut if they are not seized at once. For Francis, the highlights of a life spent trying to bring peace to some of the world’s bloodiest warzones included receiving personal threats from Chile’s murderous dictator, General Pinochet, mediating between combatants in Guatemala, Nicaragua and El Salvador, helping to win independence for East Timor, and acting as the UN Secretary-General’s Personal Representative to Taliban-ruled Afghanistan. In 2000, Francis was one of the few Christians ever to meet the founder, supreme commander and spiritual leader of the Taliban, Mullah Mohammed Omar, who immediately asked him: ‘Why does the world hate the Taliban?’ Realising he would have only one chance to answer this question, Francis gave him four reasons: ‘First, you’ve given refuge to the world’s most wanted fugitive, Osama bin Laden. I understand the Pashtun duty to be hospitable to a guest, but he has exceeded your hospitality. Secondly, your country produces most of the world’s opium poppies, the basis of heroin. This is destroying our young people. Thirdly, some of the punishments you impose, even if approved by Sharia law, offend most of the rest of the world – especially when carried out in public. And finally, there is your unconscionable treatment of women, who

Francis Vendrell (1964) with Dr Anne Lyon (2001) the College’s previous Director of Development

after all constitute half of humanity.’ Three weeks after this meeting, Omar issued a fatwa banning the farming and trading of opium poppies as unIslamic. As Francis sees it, the unique window of opportunity for peace in Afghanistan came in September 2001, when terrorists flew hijacked passenger planes into the twin towers of the World Trade Center. At the time, he was conducting a mediation between the Taliban, the Northern Alliance leadership in Tajikistan, the former Afghani King, who was in Rome, and other Afghan exile groups. After 9/11, he realised it was only a matter of time before the Taliban fell, and told UN-HQS they needed to have a multi-national force ready to step in before the Northern warlords could seize power. For whatever reasons, his request fell on deaf ears. ‘I was very upset by the way the Americans handled it. They just filled the coffers of the warlords. They should have told them: “You can keep your money and not go to jail, but give up your weapons and stay out of politics.” To bring about disarmament, you need a well-armed and disciplined force with authority. The US became distracted by Iraq. Afghanistan was left to fester and it was promoted as a success, which it was not. To effect change, you have to have the support of the people: you need to improve their lives and end corruption. And put an end to impunity. Instead, we’ve spent hundreds of billions of dollars in that country and achieved so little.’ Asked to evaluate the relative merits of the Taliban and the warlords, Francis returned to the yardstick of corruption, saying that when he visited the former Taliban Foreign Minister, he found him living in a modest house, with none of the trappings of wealth, whereas members of the Northern Alliance tended to have extravagant lifestyles with

expensive cars, large mansions and second homes in Dubai and elsewhere. The Taliban believed they were not oppressing women but protecting them: in the mid-1990s, they gained popular support by saving young girls and boys from being raped by the warlords. They then punished the perpetrators. The UN’s power is quite limited – and Francis learned to acknowledge those limitations early in his career. The SecretaryGeneral has ‘an inherent right of good offices’ whenever there is a dispute between states or within a state. In 1983, Javier Perez de Cuellar offered his good offices to mediate on the question of East Timor between Portugal, the former colonial power, and Indonesia, which had invaded the Territory and annexed it in 1976. For many years Indonesia adamantly opposed a UNorganised referendum. They claimed that the inhabitants had chosen to be part of Indonesia through an ‘Act of Free Choice’ conducted in 1969, following the Netherlands transferring West New Guinea to Indonesia. In fact, only Indonesianappointed district councils had been asked to express their views on the Territory’s future. The UN never recognised Indonesia’s annexation of East Timor, although several member states did, including Australia and Canada. The window of opportunity came 15 years later, with the Asian financial crisis of 1997. President Suharto was replaced by the less experienced Habibi. Francis and his team mediated an agreement between Portugal and Indonesia, providing for a ‘popular consultation’ (a referendum by another name, to save face for Indonesia) in which all adult Timorese, including those in exile, could vote. In August 1999, 99.6% of those eligible voted and 79.5% chose to break away. ‘Then all Hell broke loose! Because it seemed the Indonesians had believed their own propaganda. The Indonesian army-

backed militias burned much of Dili and forced a third of the population into West Timor. In reaction, two weeks later, the Security Council authorised the deployment of an Australian-led multinational force. In this case, the UN played a vital role. Nothing has given me greater satisfaction than this outcome. And it happened because we seized that window of opportunity. They don’t remain open for long – and if you miss the moment, the opportunity is gone.’ Francis had been a traveller and a citoyen du monde from his youth: his childhood at a Jesuit School in Franco’s Spain instilled a deep distrust of authoritarian regimes. He says he was ‘always a hopeless Anglophile’ and got into trouble at school for rubbing out the slogan ‘Gibraltar for Spain’ that another pupil had chalked on the blackboard. As a Law student at Barcelona University, he joined a clandestine political party, the Catalan Christian Democrats. He completed a second Law degree at King’s College, London and Part I of the UK Bar exams. Then his father, a Spanish barrister, asked Lord McNair (1906) to facilitate his admission to Caius to do a Master’s in International Law. Francis did that but first completed Part II of the History Tripos under the supervision of Neil McKendrick (1958). He remembers that time as ‘the two happiest years of my life.’ After so many years of education, the need for gainful employment was looming larger. He spent his summer vacations working as a junior at a law firm in South Africa, but he didn’t want to move there permanently because of apartheid. ‘With qualifications in Spanish and British law, I feared being pigeon-holed as a commercial lawyer – and I didn’t particularly care for this.’ He applied to the UN but was told there was ‘no position available’, so he went to Papua New Guinea for a year, to lecture on British and Australian constitutional law. It was his supervisor in International Law, Eli Lauterpacht, a Fellow of Trinity, who wrote to a friend and secured him a position with the UN. He started there on 1 February 1968 and stayed till 1 February 2002, leaving disappointed with the tragically missed window of opportunity in Afghanistan – but he bounced back and became Special Representative of the EU to Afghanistan in July of that year and continued until 2008. These days, he divides his time between homes in London and New York, where he has been a Director of the Caius Foundation, the College’s US charity, for fourteen years. And he still travels widely, being much in demand as a lecturer on international affairs, whose knowledge is based on personal experience, rather than textbooks.

‘‘

he College has been remarkably fortunate in the skills and dedication of its inhouse historians, who have told us not only what happened and when, but also how and why our College evolved as it did. John Caius (1529) himself brought the Annals of the College up to date, as well as writing the Annals of the Royal College of Physicians and a History of the University. John Venn (1853) made a comprehensive study of all available archival materials, culminating in the publication of the first three volumes of the Biographical History between 1897 and 1901. Venn included the Latin texts of both Gonville’s and Bateman’s Statutes as well as Caius’ Statutes in Vol. III.

a rip-roaring tale of financial manipulation and corruption.

Only a brave historian would have risked following in Venn’s footsteps, but Christopher Brooke (1945) was that man, painting what William Wade (1936) called ‘a splendid panorama of college society’ in his highly informative 1985 History, now available free of charge for download as an ebook from the Caius website. In 2010, the quincentenary of Caius’ birth prompted an invitation to the Senior Fellow, Michael Prichard (1950) to prepare the first English translation of the Latin Statutes of Gonville, Bateman and Caius, with a commentary. The result is a magnificent, 640-page book whose dimensions, at first sight, put me in mind of the Omnibus edition of Jeeves and Wooster stories, which P G Wodehouse himself described as ‘a trackless desert of print... almost the ideal paperweight’. Potential readers can be assured that Michael’s book is no desert and far from trackless – it is, in fact, a rip-roaring tale of financial manipulation and corruption. Seemingly arid subject matter, the house-rules devised for the College in pre-Shakespearean times become a gateway to the past, a fascinating insight into the medieval world and the minds of Caius and his contemporaries, leavened with enlightening comments and asides.

Michael describes Caius’ statutes as characteristically rigid, to the point of fussiness. They demanded practices which were already becoming old-fashioned in Caius’ own day and in due course were consigned to oblivion, such as the requirements to converse in Latin and dress in a manner which Caius unrealistically deemed appropriate for all future time. For failure to speak Latin, the penalty was ‘loss of commons’ – a serious deprivation for a hungry young man. In addition, all members were required to live in perpetual and honest celibacy and junior members had to be back in their rooms by eight o’clock every evening. The uniform required was an anklelength black gown, worn over a cassock, with a surplice, the appropriate academic hood, if the wearer had a degree, and a square black cap, all to be worn in town as well as in College. Frilly shirts, loose boots, conspicuous ruffles and pointed hats were all outlawed on pain of a fine, for major pensioners, of 6s 8d, or for scholars, of 3s 4d. ‘We decree that no member of your college shall frequent backstreet taverns or wine-shops, except on the occasion of a visit by a parent or guest, and then only once or twice a year at most... We also decree that they shall not go to inns to see travelling players (who for the sake of gain perform foolish plays for the foolish rabble); nor shall they attend bullfights, bear-fights or dog-fights.’ Library books were not to be torn, maltreated, left open or off their shelves or marked in any way. (This rule has stood the test of time and still applies.) No animals could be kept in college, whether for hunting or fowling or as pets ‘lest the minds of the students are distracted from their studies’. There was a prohibition on putting up archery targets, laying out tennis courts or tossing an axe within the boundaries of the college, the latter offence on pain of Michael Prichard making a point in characteristically forceful fashion

The same statute also contains the first approval of college sports: ‘It shall be permissible, however, to practise with bows in the fields, or play with balls in college, provided it is done in suitable places and without causing a nuisance to the college.’ Equally detailed governance was applied to the senior members and even the Master (the usual English term was ‘keeper’). Claims for travel expenses on occasional forays to inspect the College’s manorial lands were only allowed: ‘provided that the college is not charged for more than the expenses of the keeper, one fellow, one manservant for the keeper and three horses. For if the keeper is not well off, one manservant will suffice: if he is affluent and wants more, he is to pay for the rest himself.

Most Caians have unconsciously The trouble, then, was not religious, but absorbed the picture of Caius proposed by bursarial: the Fellows whom Caius Venn and not really contradicted by Brooke:

dismissed had been responsible for the College’s money, and he had lost confidence in their care of that money. In 1545, when Caius returned from Padua and resigned his fellowship, there had been £600 in pure gold in the Treasury. When he assumed the Mastership, fourteen years later, he was outraged to find only £4 -16s left. His overriding concern during the first seven years as Master – the period when the disputes and expulsions occurred – was to restore a comforting balance to the Treasury. Michael’s view of Caius, the man, is much more sympathetic than Venn’s. He sees Caius as a remarkably vigorous worker, deeply hurt by the criticism he suffered over the expulsions. He felt those who had broken the Statutes no longer belonged. He spent most of his time in London earning money, (for he’d given much of his money to the College), visiting patients, running the Royal College of Physicians and doing a great deal of work for the College in the capital, managing the estates he’d given the College, fighting actions in court with tenants who’d become obstreperous – so he had to have Fellows in Cambridge whom he could rely on. He’d been a loyal citizen under Henry VIII, Edward VI, Mary and Elizabeth. He was friends with the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Burghley, and Matthew Parker. They didn’t regard him as a threat, just an antiquary with a love of the past. With characteristic thoroughness, Michael made a forensic examination, not only of the Statutes, but of the Pandects, the series of records of College resolutions and decisions which was started by Caius and is one of the very few records surviving from his time. The Pandects tell a very clear story. Michael believes the atmosphere changed radically from the first half of Caius’ Mastership to the second: once he had expelled the unsympathetic, old guard, college life became much more harmonious. Caius now had Fellows he could trust while he was away in London, like Henry Holland (1556), who controlled the finances impeccably as Bursar for four years, between 1566 and 1570, and handed over some of those duties to Stephen Perse (1565) when he stepped down.

In reply, he questioned their entitlements and provoked a disdainful, cocksure riposte: ‘The College chest hath a proper allowance to itself, which as it was ever sufficient for the common charge so the fellows never diminish it, therefore they have always thought that pensions designed for the maintenance of scholars or fellows are not to be converted to the filling of chests!’ The sense of personal entitlement is striking, especially in the context of a formal response to a charge of serious misconduct. They have clearly forgotten Caius’ definition of ‘the college as a corporate entity’, if indeed they ever understood it. Little wonder, that in the two centuries following Caius’ death, the College failed to attain the prosperity that his meticulous statutes were designed to promote. One shining exception Michael notes as having been undervalued by Venn is John Smith (1731), who did much to repair the College finances as Bursar, then President and finally Master over the period 1750 to 1795. Smith, who will be familiar to Caians from his portrait by Joshua Reynolds, shared the third founder’s insistence on strict accounting and the maintenance of a sufficient surplus to meet repairs and other necessary calls (usus extraordinarios) upon the college’s finances. Sad to say, only eight years after Smith died, Martin Davy became Master and proceeded to squander the Perse Fund on Martin Davy! Awareness of irregularities reached Henry Bickersteth KC (1802), (later Lord Langdale), a non-resident senior Fellow who had become one of the four managers of the trust in 1823. Appalled by what he learned, Bickersteth went to Cambridge at once, tried and failed to persuade Davy and the other managers to cease the illegal distributions and immediately paid back every farthing of excess he had received, with interest at 4%. This is a rare example of the sort of behaviour John Caius expected from his beneficiaries. The book is a triumph of scholarship and a great pleasure to read. The College owes a huge debt of gratitude to Michael for completing a long labour that few others could have performed at all, let alone with such distinction. First elected to a Fellowship

Michael Prichard (1950), the Senior Fellow

at the age of 22, in 1950, Michael served as Director of Studies and College Lecturer in Law until 1990, succeeding Philip Grierson (1937) as President in 1976 and as Senior Fellow in 2006. He also directed law studies for Newnham, so, he says: ‘I had mixed supervisions from 1960!’ He was a long-term Praelector Rhetoricus, Senior Tutor from 1980 to 1989 and principally instrumental in introducing computers into the College in the early 1980s. ‘The Bursary kept their quill pens!’ he adds, with a smile. It was his work on Vol VII of the Biographical History that convinced him that the College must computerise its record-keeping. He gave up teaching, he says, not because he didn’t want to go on, but because the character of the law taught had changed. Undergraduates now felt they needed

yesterday’s Law Reports in The Times, mostly European Directives and so on. He regards current judgments, compared with those of Lords Denning, Wilberforce and Diplock, for example, as distinctly less attractive to study. In 1995, when he retired from his University position, Michael was invited to return to the legal chambers he left in 1952, at 4 Stone Buildings, Lincoln’s Inn, to help a Caian QC with a case involving Elizabethan and Stuart Exchequer documents. He had to become familiar with Elizabethan Secretary Hand, the hand in which most of the college’s records were written in Caius’ time. So, almost by chance, the Senior Fellow was one of the few persons in College well-suited to take on this formidable task – effectively, giving a twenty-first century voice to Dr Caius and the other founders. How could he refuse?

he radical scientific breakthrough achieved by William Harvey (1593) was extraordinary. Through careful observation and research, Harvey overturned medical dogma that had been universally accepted for more than 1,500 years. Harvey came up 64 years after John Caius (1529) and had an almost identical career. Like Caius, after graduating from Cambridge, he went to Italy, to study medicine at Padua University. He graduated as MD there, returned to take his Cambridge MD and was elected to a College Fellowship. He moved to London, served as a Royal Physician to James 1 and Charles 1, became (like Caius) the finest British anatomist of his generation and a major benefactor to the Royal College of Physicians (RCP). It was due to Harvey’s influence (and his generous gift of £20,000 for building works) that the RCP became the leading institution of British medical research. What pleasure it would have given Caius to know how spectacularly well Harvey used the opportunities he had provided. When Harvey began his studies, medical science accepted almost without question the precepts attributed to Hippocrates (c.460-375 BC) and later advanced and expanded by his disciple, Galen of Pergamum (c.129-216 AD), physician to successive Roman Emperors. Galen regarded anatomy as the basis of all medical knowledge and used dissection and vivisection of primates and pigs to develop his theories (since dissection of human corpses was forbidden by the Roman religion). He accepted Hippocrates’ theory that illness resulted from an imbalance of the four humours (blood, black bile, yellow bile and phlegm) and proved that the arteries carried blood, not air, as people had believed for 400 years. He also distinguished between arterial and venous blood, conducted brilliant, pioneering, experimental studies of the nervous and respiratory systems and observed the workings of the valves of the heart.

A corrosion cast of the blood vessels of the heart. The blood is replaced with resin and the surrounding tissue is then dissolved away, leaving an accurate 3-D model of the veins and arteries. This image is reproduced by kind permission of the Royal College of Surgeons of England

Galen believed blood was concocted (‘cooked’) in the liver and then carried through the veins to all other parts of the body, where it was completely consumed, as its nutrients were used to create flesh and other matter. He thought some blood was regenerated in the heart, considered the seat of emotions and the essential human spirit, and dispersed through the arteries to bring ‘life’ to other parts of the body. The Flemish physician, Andres Vesalius (1514 -1564), a contemporary of Caius at Padua who studied anatomy and dissected human bodies, questioned some of Galen’s hypotheses, but it was Harvey who first proved, against implacable opposition, that the heart was solely responsible for circulating the blood. Harvey’s scientific methods were impeccable: he made no assumptions, instead basing all his conclusions on experiment and observation. He did not rush to publish, but circulated his revolutionary ideas for several years among his colleagues and invited them to test, question or refute them. When Harvey first joined the RCP in 1604, its principal function was to prosecute unqualified physicians. He was elected to a Fellowship (FRCP) three years later and in 1609 accepted the position of Physician in charge at St Bartholomew’s Hospital, where he was expected to care for the poor and to

‘take no gift or reward’ for his services. He lived modestly in London with his wife (they had no children) and continued to work at Bart’s for most of the rest of his life. In 1615, he was appointed the Lumleian Lecturer, which required him to ‘spread light’ on the subjects of anatomy and surgery in a series of public lectures for an initial period of seven years. Harvey conducted public dissections of the bodies of recently executed criminals, for the benefit of large numbers of students, in three separate sessions, starting late in the day to delay decomposition, since there was no refrigeration. He also vivisected animals because he believed the behaviour of the heart could only be understood by studying it in action. He encouraged Fellows and students at the RCP to carry out their own investigations. He proved his theory by using a ligature on the upper arm to restrict blood flow – and then demonstrated by tracing a finger along the main artery and vein that blood can only flow away from the heart in arteries and only towards it in veins (see illustration). The publication, at the book fair in Frankfurt in 1628, of his treatise on the circulation of the blood, De Motu Cordis, attracted a storm of criticism from his peers but Harvey weathered it and eventually enjoyed the satisfaction of seeing his contentious arguments widely accepted. In 1649, he published De Circulatione Sanguinis, to answer the attack of one of his most persistent critics, Jean Riolan, and a book he published two years later, Essays on the Generation of Animals, is considered the basis of modern embryology. In 1654, Harvey made a further donation to the RCP, to pay for an annual oration that would encourage its members

The fine portrait (above, centre) bears the name William Harvey and was once thought to be by Rembrandt. It was given to the College in 1798. Sir Geoffrey Keynes (brother of Maynard and the authority on Harvey portraiture) discovered the only authenticated portrait of Harvey in mid-life (above left) by Daniel Mytens and exhibited it at the Royal College of Physicians (RCP) in 1948. Caius contributed to its purchase for the National Portrait Gallery in 1976. The third portrait (above, right) is thought to have been painted after Harvey’s death by an unknown artist from the studio of Peter Lely in the 1670s and is part of the RCP’s collection. Sadly, Keynes dismissed the College’s portrait as ‘bearing no resemblance to Harvey’. Dr John Casey (1964) reasons that, as with Christian iconography, by long association and familiarity, the Harvey portrait has ‘become Harvey’ for the Caian community James Howell

their great predecessor and benefactor. Between January and July this year, the 500th anniversary of its foundation, the RCP presented a magnificent exhibition as a tribute to Harvey’s achievements. In this year, when we mourn the loss of one of the

most courageous Caians of our own time, it is fitting to recall what courage Harvey displayed in challenging the prevailing doctrine of the medical establishment. A few years earlier, such unorthodox views could put a man in mortal danger.

Duncan Maskell (1979) has never been one to refuse a challenge. He believes ‘you’ve got to take your opportunities when they come along’.

A New by Mick Le Moignan (2004)

Challenge

aving already risen to dizzy heights on the Cambridge University career ladder, as Pro-Vice-Chancellor (PVC) Planning and Resources, with overall oversight of a turnover of about £2 billion and the University’s massive building programme, including the North-West Cambridge Development and Cavendish III, the new home for the Department of Physics, Duncan has now accepted an invitation to be the new Vice-Chancellor of the University of Melbourne from October 2018. According to the current Times Higher Education rankings, Melbourne is Australia’s top university and the fourth-best in Asia. Duncan will not divulge his plans for the University just yet, because he wants to base them on what he sees and hears when he gets there, but, although it is already riding high, he’s sure there is still ‘room for improvement’. His own journey began in Barnet, at a time when his father could still claim it was in Hertfordshire, rather than North London. His parents were a plumber and an audio typist in the radiology department of the local hospital, who both rose to highly responsible positions. He categorises his background as ‘aspirational working class’. He went to Queen Elizabeth’s School when

it was a comprehensive school and thinks ‘It was very good for me, meeting all sorts of people from all walks of life.’ The school had previously been a grammar school, so some of the staff still had an Oxbridge mindset and encouraged him to apply. He knew of Gonville & Caius from University Challenge: he’d been intrigued by the pronunciation of Caius. He came up in the first year of coeducation. He remembers meeting ‘a small cohort of absolutely amazing women’, is still in touch with one or two of them and formed lasting, deep friendships with quite a few of the men. ‘The best thing about college life was meeting all sorts of different people – and of course, I learned that the differences are often more interesting than the similarities.’ He and his friends trialled for the College’s football team, found they were not good enough and so set up a 2nd XI, which he now describes as something of a ‘Band of Brothers’. ‘I was never any good at sport,’ he says, ‘but it was always a big part of my life.’ One highlight was refereeing the football Cuppers Final at Grange Road and he is looking forward to attending the highly athletic, ‘Australian Rules’ (AFL) variant of the game that is practically a religion in Melbourne. He knows he’ll have to choose allegiance to an AFL team and suspects it will have to be bottom-of-the-league Carlton, the suburb

where he and his wife will be living. His mother played piano to grade 8 and encouraged him to learn clarinet and saxophone, which led to other interesting experiences at Caius. Early on, Michael Law (1979) put together a jazz band, the Eight Hot Keys, which included Duncan and seven other Caians from the same year, including Peter Cowlett on trombone and Julian Flowers on guitar. A band was formed that went to the Edinburgh Festival to play for a show that sank without trace, but which featured Simon Russell Beale (1979). The band played a late-night slot which was very popular, so on coming back to Cambridge it was expanded into the 78RPM Big Band, in which Caians David Grubb and Grant Llewelyn also played. 78RPM was very popular, playing many gigs, and usually every night during May Week, including once managing four May Balls in one night. By then, Duncan was a veteran of stage performance, having sung in the Good Friday performance of the St Matthew Passion at the Festival Hall and in particular a solo at the age of 11 in the Queen Elizabeth Hall in a concert for Benjamin Britten’s sixtieth birthday. ‘Nothing else’ he says, ‘has ever seemed so daunting! But something clicked. That was the cathartic first time that helped me not to fear being on stage in front of a large audience, and

...Always a Caian 15 this has stood me in good stead for giving talks at scientific conferences and all sorts of other things.’ Having gone straight from the sixth form to Caius, he admits he found the transition difficult and ‘failed to thrive’ in his first term and a half, but after one supervision on the Biology of Cells, Tom ap Rees (1964) asked him to stay behind and gave him a gentle but telling piece of advice: ‘You’ve got a lot of talent but you’re not working hard enough!’ By his third year, Duncan had worked out what he really wanted to do and spent most of his time at the Department of Pathology, working on a Part II project on Salmonella. He stayed at Caius to do a PhD in the same area, supported by Wellcome Biotech, which was set up like a university research lab, but with an industry budget. They appointed him as a research scientist when he finished, and he says: ‘I felt like I never left academia.’ A postdoctoral project at the Institute for Molecular Medicine in Oxford followed, on the bacteria that cause childhood meningitis, and then he took up a University Lectureship in Biochemistry at Imperial College, London, where he started a major programme on the bacteria that cause whooping cough. Bacteria are his

focus: he took care to explain that a bacterium, unlike a virus, which cannot exist outside a host, is ‘a proper, independent, living entity’. He was enjoying himself at Imperial, living in Kew with his wife and new-born son, but, not for the first or the last time, ‘head-hunters’ called to ask him back to Cambridge. ‘And you don’t turn down your alma mater when it invites you to be a Professor at 35!’ So he became the first Marks & Spencer Professor of Farm Animal Health, Food Science and Food Safety in the Department of Veterinary Medicine. Previously, he had researched the pathogens that cause disease in humans, but ‘humans are just another animal!’ so he branched out into this new area. ‘It’s not so different: understanding how infection happens in humans helps you to understand how it happens in other animals and vice versa.’ It turned out to be a particularly fruitful field because ‘This was 1996 and the start of the genome revolution.’ In 2004, his colleagues invited Duncan to apply to be Head of the Department of Veterinary Medicine. ‘Of course, I said no, on the grounds of not being a veterinary surgeon! But they asked again, so I

thought long and hard about it and said I’d do it for five years.’ Nine years later, in response to another approach, he took the next step and became Head of the School of Biological Sciences. He enjoyed the job and says he would like to have continued but, two years later, the position of Senior PVC came up and he found that challenge irresistible. Three years later he has now been appointed as the VC at the University of Melbourne. Both VCs he served under at Cambridge paid generous tributes to his contribution to the University and wished him well in his new appointment. Duncan is not the first Caian to take up a senior position in the Antipodes. The celebrated statistician and geneticist, Sir Ronald Fisher (1909) joined the Australian CSIRO and the University of Adelaide when he retired in 1956. More recently, Professor Tony Smith (1972) went back to New Zealand to be PVC and Dean of the Law School at the Victoria University of Wellington. At least one other VC in the ‘Group of Eight’ top Australian universities is also a Cambridge graduate. Running the University of Melbourne is probably Duncan’s biggest challenge yet – but if any of those head-hunters calls to ask for his phone number, it might be wise for them not to pass it on ...

r Caius would be delighted: Latin has not yet replaced English as the lingua franca around the Courts, but the study of Classics is undergoing a renaissance, under the guidance of a dynamic Director of Studies, Dr Alessandro Launaro (2013). When Alessandro joined Caius, there were seven undergraduates reading Classics across the three and four-year courses; now, there are 14 and there will be 18 in the coming academic year. Caius students have had no Lower Seconds since he became Director of Studies and there were two First Class degrees last year and two more this year. Alessandro believes: ‘Classics is not just about reading the ancient texts: it involves thinking about the whole civilisation and looking at the whole range of clues people left to the way they lived and viewed the world. Sure, I can read Cicero – but I’m equally interested in learning about the lives of people we don’t know about yet. New knowledge is available and there are a vast range of avenues to finding it. Then we can read the ancient texts again, casting them under new light and achieving a further level of understanding.’ His way of breathing new life into Classics is to combine ancient history with archaeology, ‘to try to make sense of disparate evidence’. Students are invited to work as volunteers for four weeks each summer on an archaeological dig at Interamna Lirenas on the River Liri, about 80 miles southeast of Rome, within sight of the Benedictine Abbey of Monte Cassino. Together with his colleague Martin Millett, Alessandro started work on this project in 2010, examining a 25 hectare site with geophysical prospection and field surveys – literally, walking over ploughed fields, looking for evidence of ancient, buried settlements. Because of its prominent, strategic position, the Abbey has been demolished many times over, first by the Lombard invaders in 580 and most recently by Allied bombers in 1944. Leftover shrapnel from the latest conflict did interfere a little with the magnetometry Alessandro’s team used to detect subtle variations in the soil (bricks that have been exposed to high heat, for example, are more magnetic). Once, they detected what they thought was a very big building, with a huge magnetic anomaly at one corner. At first, they thought it must be an unexploded bomb from World War Two, but after further tests with ground-penetrating radar, they now think it was a lime kiln, used to process stone when the town was demolished at the end of antiquity as its population was moving to safer places. By 2012, that large building was confirmed to be a theatre. They still thought

it must have been ‘a town of no great importance, with the usual forum, theatre, public buildings, etc.’ They started digging a small trench to test results – and only 30 cm under the surface, they found the tops of high walls, with scratchmarks from the ploughs that had gone over them repeatedly. Further down, there were the seats and steps of what turned out to be a sizable theatre (55m x 31m) that might have seated 1,500 people (equivalent to almost the whole population of today’s Comune). Moreover, it was clear that it once had a roof – and of the 160+ Roman theatres excavated in Italy, only about a dozen were covered over in this way. Alessandro observed a dramatic change in

the attitude of the local people: at first, they had said ‘We’re glad you’re here, so you can prove there’s nothing there and then we can get on with developing the land.’ He remembers a farmer who came to see the ancient walls emerging from the earth – and started to weep at the realisation that his own plough had caused the damage. ‘So the local community not only accepted but started caring about their own history.’ There are clearly implications for the town’s future prosperity as a tourist destination, as the dig uncovers more and more about its distant past. Funding is always an issue for what has turned out to be a major project, which will

The Faculty of Classics of Cambridge University, with generous support from several other charitable bodies, including the Leverhulme Trust, the Arts & Humanities Research Council, the British Academy, the Isaac Newton Trust, the McDonald institute for Archaeological Research and the British School at Rome, has so far contributed twothirds of the overall funding and the Italian government, through the local office of the Soprintendenza (SABAP-LAZIO) and the local council of the Comune Pignataro Interamna have provided the remaining one-third. Nevertheless, there are always going to be hard times, and Alessandro was

particularly moved when one of the local contractors, asked to stop work because of a shortage of funds, chose to continue and donate his own fees to the project, to the value of € 8,000. ‘It was,’ he says, ‘a wonderful example of a non-professional sharing the excitement, not an academic, but an enthusiast.’ Alessandro’s alma mater in his native Italy was Pisa University, but he came from an Anglophile family and spent time as an Erasmus Exchange Student at Leicester University and a Visiting Graduate Student in Cambridge University.

Fellowship at Darwin College, first as a British Academy Postdoctoral Fellow and later as a Leverhulme Early Career Fellow. He knew Caius as one of the founders of Darwin (with Trinity and St John’s) and supervised some Caius students. In 2013, when he accepted a permanent position as a University Lecturer, the College invited him to be a Fellow and Director of Studies in Classics. The College’s long-retired classicist, Richard Duncan-Jones (1963) was delighted with the appointment. Alessandro won more admirers when he gave a special presentation about his work to the College’s major donors before the Benefactors’ Dinner in 2017. The most exciting discovery made to date at Interamna Lirenas has a curious relevance to Caius. It is a 2,000-year-old sundial, intact, well preserved and recording the name and details of the benefactor who provided it for the town: M(arcus) NOVIUS M(arci) F(ilius) TUBULA {Marcus Novius Tubula, son of Marcus}. The engraving on the curved rim of the dial records that he held the historic Roman office of TR(ibunus) PL(ebis) {Plebeian Tribune} and paid for the sundial D(e) S(ua) PEC(unia) {with his own money}.

For Alessandro and his students, this is exciting, not only because they have uncovered the identity of a hitherto unknown public official, but because it tells them that such men from the outlying towns could make a name for themselves in the imperial capital. ‘Various considerations about the name and style of lettering place the sundial’s inscription at a time (mid 1st century BC onwards) by which the inhabitants of Interamna had already been granted full Roman citizenship.’ Other evidence suggests they may have been under the patronage of Julius Caesar himself. The sundial even gives a clue about the donor’s character: as Alessandro observes, the advantage of choosing a sundial to celebrate his promotion was that his fellow-citizens would often look at it, to check the time! When they first discovered it, the sundial, carved from a limestone block (54 x 35 x 25 cm) was lying face-down on a layer of clay. As he lifted one edge, Alessandro could not see the engraved surface of the stone, but a perfect mirror image of it, imprinted on the clay. It was one of those precious, magic moments of discovery that make all the hard work of archaeology worthwhile.

rom 9-14 February this year, the sixth annual e-luminate Cambridge festival was guest curated by Caius Fellow and Director of Studies in the History of Art, Dr James Fox (2010). James is well-known for opening people’s eyes, hearts and minds to the joys and excitement of colour. His ground-breaking BBC-TV series A History of Art in Three Colours (Once a Caian ... Issue 12, p.12) was recently repeated and his book The Meaning of Colour is also being published this year by Penguin (Allen Lane). James said: ‘I’ve been dazzled and delighted by e-luminate Cambridge since it started in 2013. It floods Cambridge with light at a dark time of the year and makes us see this beautiful city with fresh eyes.’ James worked alongside Founder and Artistic Director of the festival, Alessandra Caggiano. The installation The Colours of Caius College was designed by French light artist Patrice Warrener, using the Chromolithe technique to give the impression that the façade had been painted with vibrant, glowing colours, thus enhancing the beauty and splendour of Alfred Waterhouse’s design and showing the nineteenth century building in a spectacular new light. Pioneered by Warrener 30 years ago, the Chromolithe technique highlights architectural features by painting them in light, rather than masking them with a projected image. This unique process transforms buildings into bold frescos, bursting to life with colour and light. Other Cambridge landmarks to be bathed in light and colour included the Senate House and the Fitzwilliam Museum. Sadly, at the time of going to press, there is doubt about continuing funding for the festival into 2019.

Why Antarctica?

n February and March 2018, two young Caian scientists went on a life-changing expedition to Antarctica. It was the second voyage of the Homeward Bound scheme, founded by Australian leadership activist, Ms Fabian Dattner, with three experienced women Antarctic scientists, to encourage and extend participation and leadership by women in the STEMM subjects (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics and Medicine) on a global scale. The aim is ‘to heighten the influence and impact of women in making decisions that shape our planet’. Competition for places on the Homeward Bound program is intense. Only 80 or so are chosen each year, from all over the world, and the experience is likely to lead to a lifelong commitment. Over the one-year program, which culminates in the Antarctic expedition, participants form bonds with each other and are inspired with a new sense of their own abilities and potential. They become part of a global network of women scientists who expect to support each other for the rest of their lives.

A moment of quiet contemplation in an icy landscape

Hannah Laeverenz-Schlogelhofer (2010) has been at Caius for the past eight years, first as a Natural Sciences undergraduate specialising in Chemistry and then at the Nanoscience and Nanotechnology Doctoral Training Centre (NanoDTC). She is just completing a multi-disciplinary PhD in microbial ecology, exploring how algae and bacteria mutually exchange nutrients. Based in the Physics Department’s Biological and Soft Systems research group, she also collaborates with researchers in the Department of Plant Sciences and at Stockholm University. Hannah uses experiments and mathematical modelling to trace how carbon flows between two different organisms, with the aim of designing communities of micro-organisms for more efficient algal growth. The aim of this research is to explore the potential of algae to solve a multitude of problems, particularly for the production of food supplements or pharmaceuticals. Madeline ‘Maddie’ Mitchell (2010) came to Caius at the same time as Hannah, but as a postgraduate, to take a PhD in Plant

Dr Madeline ‘Maddie’ Mitchell (2010)

Sciences. Maddie grew up in regional Australia and completed her first degree at one of Melbourne University’s residential colleges. She appreciated the strong MCR at Caius, where she made friends working in many different fields. Maddie is a plant molecular physiologist: she studies how plants grow and respond to their environment, including at the level of genes and proteins. At Cambridge, she investigated the super-efficient photosynthesis processes achieved by algae, with the eventual aim of re-engineering the photosynthesis of other crops to improve yields. After gaining her PhD, Maddie returned to Australia, where she is a Postdoctoral Fellow at Australia’s CSIRO in Canberra. The aim of her current research is to develop novel plant-based fibres that will provide a biodegradable alternative to artificial, synthetic textiles. The Homeward Bound program aims to help women scientists to develop the network, skills, tools and confidence they need to take the next steps on their ‘leadership journey’. The women selected had a wide variety of ages, nationalities and

backgrounds. They included social entrepreneurs, policy makers, teachers, vets and doctors. About a third were early career researchers, one third mid-career and one third well established. One of the top scientists on the ship was Susan Scott, from the Australian National University in Canberra. She was one of the principals of the large team that shared the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physics for detecting gravitational waves, the minute distortions of space-time predicted by Albert Einstein 100 years earlier. In February 2017, once their places were confirmed, the participants started getting to know each other via monthly conference calls run by experts in leadership, science communication and the Antarctic. A year later, they convened in South America to set sail for the Southern Ocean. Both Hannah and Maddie were conscious of the Caius connections with Antarctica via Edward Wilson (1891), who died with Scott on the return journey from the South Pole, and another Australian, Frank Debenham (1913), Founder Director of the Scott Polar Institute. Hannah had always

been fascinated by Wilson’s Antarctic flag, still preserved in a wooden frame next to High Table in Hall. Before setting off, she visited the College Archive to see Wilson’s paintings of Antarctica. The voyage was not an official research trip, so no samples could be collected, but the Antarctic element was important to both of them – and not only because of the connection with their own research. Much of Antarctic research is related to the crucial issues of climate change and sustainability, so they had group discussions on renewable energy and plastic pollution and discussed what they, as women and scientists, could contribute to resolving such problems. Significantly, the first woman to visit Antarctica got there more than a hundred years after the first man! As Hannah explained: ‘Antarctica has no indigenous people, so anyone who goes there becomes a spokesperson for it. Everyone on the ship was aware of that responsibility. We all became disconnected from our everyday lives, so we were completely present with each other. That helped us to reach a new

Penguins expressing their feelings and keeping each other warm

level of awareness and connectedness. I live at a very fast pace. This trip has shown me how important it is to take time for reflection, to externalise your insights through others and share those reflections.’ Maddie also felt the predominance of women on board helped to create space for participants to contribute where they could and learn from each other: ‘The official leadership group provided course content but wasn’t hierarchical. Feedback was welcomed. It was a safe space. We formed strong connections and took decisions together, taking in other people’s perspectives. One example was the way we debated whether to risk rough seas to visit the remote British Antarctic Survey Station at Rothera (67° S.) Some were sick, so at first we decided not to go. Instead, we went out in Zodiacs and saw Orcas. The next day, the weather had cleared so we went after all and had a great time. We also analysed and learned from the decision-making process. We formed some very strong relationships, individually and collectively. I’m sure we’ll keep in touch, over the years to come, and we’ll always have each other’s backs.’

she came up to Caius to study Russian and Italian, though she switched in the second year when the call of History of Art became too strong to resist. Her love of Russia was already embedded, however: she had taken up Russian with the encouragement of her linguist godmother while at school in the 1980s, ‘in the midst of Gorbachev mania.’ Taught by an inspiring former GCHQ Russianist who would pack his young linguists into an ageing Morris Traveller to attend Russian talks, plays and exhibitions, she was smitten further by a visit aged 17 © State Tretyakov Gallery, Moscow

he prestigious medal, granted by the Russian government, recognises contributions to Russia in the arts and culture, education, humanities and literature, as well as ‘the rapprochement and mutual enrichment of cultures of nations and peoples’. For Polly, a specialist in Russian art, the honour reflected two highly significant contributions: the exhibition Russia and the Arts: The Age of Tolstoy and Tchaikovsky, which she curated at the National Portrait Gallery (NPG) in 2016, and her prize-winning book The Russian Canvas, an account of the remarkable rise of Russian painting in the 18th and 19th centuries. Both achievements have won widespread acclaim: the exhibition – which saw the NPG partner with Moscow’s State Tretyakov Gallery for a pioneering portrait-swap – attracted almost 70,000 visitors (far exceeding its target) and generated warm cross-cultural diplomacy at a time of frosty political relations between Russia and the UK. Meanwhile the book, with its focus on a neglected yet seminal period in which Russia’s artists developed from underrated craftsmen to proud professionals, was equally ground-breaking in setting these uniquely Russian painters squarely in their pan-European context. The closeness of the UK-Russian cultural connection underpinning Polly’s work is embodied in her own academic background:

Achieving a state honour is a great achievement in one’s own country: decoration by another nation is a still rarer accolade. So much the more exceptional, then, the award of a Pushkin Medal of the Russian Federation to art historian Professor Rosalind Polly Blakesley (1989)

Fyodor Dostoevsky by Vasily Perov, the only portrait of the author painted from life

to still-Communist Russia: ‘I was mesmerised by the mysterious riches of this slightly grey space – by the preposterous scale of it all.’ At Caius, where she followed in the footsteps of her father Peter Gray (1956), she was ‘incredibly happy as a student – I made the friends who are now my children’s godparents, rowed in the first eight and was rag rep, which was a licence to do mischievous and joyous things’. A summer stay in Voronezh, where she was able to write her dissertation on a local artist, confirmed her taste for scholarship, and – her course firmly set – after graduation she moved to Oxford to pursue a PhD in Russian 19thcentury painting. Now Head of the Department of History of Art at Cambridge and a Fellow of Pembroke College, she has spent much of her academic career seeking to rebalance Western perceptions of Russian art that ‘too often focus only on icons or Kandinsky. The most cursory glance at these two poles reveals that some pretty remarkable stuff must have taken place in between.’ The Russian Canvas, the product of a decade of work (‘my daughter’s lifetime’), focuses on the period from the foundation of the Academy of Arts in 1757 to the assassination of Alexander II in 1881. In this book, Polly sought to draw attention back in time from the Avant Garde to reveal to nonRussian audiences an astonishing history of complicated, conflicted, often spectacular

painting that emerged in Russia over the preceding two centuries. ‘I aim to get away from this idea of Russia either being out in the cold doing its own thing, or desperately trying to follow a lodestar of artistic innovation in the West.’ In fact, she argues, those decades saw remarkably accelerated artistic growth, as artists such as portraitist Ivan Vishniakov and landscape painter Arkhip Kuindzhi tested their local and national identities while working in ‘close and often competitive dialogue with European developments’. While her book uncovered past connections between Russia and the West, the Russia and the Arts exhibition aimed to build new links and understanding through the exchange of art. As a trustee of the National Portrait Gallery, Polly raised the prospect of a possible Russian portrait exhibition as long ago as 2011. Under inspired guidance from then NPG Director Sandy Nairne, her initial ‘wildly ambitious vision’ covering decades gradually focused down to a period from the 1860s to 1914, ‘when all the artistic disciplines came together in unprecedented dialogue involving musicians, performers, writers, painters and patrons. I ended up curating a tightly conceived show which highlighted those collaborations and the myriad ways in which these various artists sparked off each other in the closing decades of imperial rule.’ As plans developed to borrow 26

paintings from the Tretyakov, the idea of a partner exhibition emerged – particularly appropriate as both galleries were celebrating the 160th anniversary of their foundation in 1856. The Moscow gallery opted to explore a much broader timeframe, borrowing 49 paintings – including the celebrated Chandos portrait of Shakespeare – for a show spanning three centuries, From Elizabeth to Victoria. ‘It was consistently productive and exciting,’ Polly recalls. ‘We asked for some of Russia’s most cherished paintings, including Vasily Perov’s Dostoevsky, the only portrait of the author done from life, and Ilya Repin’s unforgettable painting of Mussorgsky on his deathbed. These are iconic Russian works that any Russian school child knows. I remember thinking we’re being pretty feisty asking for all of this. The Tretyakov curators rightly wanted to know why we had selected each portrait, but with one exception [a painting on metal withheld only because of concerns over its condition] they let us borrow everything we wanted. There was real trust.’ At the opening of the NPG exhibition, even before sky-high attendance figures confirmed huge public interest in Russian art, top-level political support for the project was clear. Despite deep tensions between the two countries over Moscow’s interventions in Eastern Ukraine and Crimea, the Russian deputy prime minister and ambassador to

the UK and the latter’s British counterpart all attended the event. ‘It was a constellation of people who were unable to have that sort of meeting on a public stage,’ Polly recalls. ‘An exhibition like that generates knowledge and understanding of its subject matter, but it can also enable forms of human interaction that might not otherwise take place. Cultural dialogue provides a vital way of understanding another society, and never more so than when the political situation is strained.’ In an age frequently characterised by mutual misunderstanding and political mud-slinging, the connection between communities that the exhibition built is more precious than ever. Just as many England fans found their World Cup travels in Russia provided cultural as well as sporting insights, so Polly’s book and exhibition have highlighted the fact that Russians, who venerate Pushkin, are not always so very different from Brits, with their love of Shakespeare. The award of the Pushkin Medal – ‘an incredible honour and very unexpected’ – was a richly deserved recognition of the work of one art historian and the gallery that took a risk on her enlightened vision. But it also represents the potential of artworks to challenge misleading perceptions and foster mutual understanding and new lines of communication between people – a symbol of hope in difficult times.

Cramped conditions in the current Caius kitchens

f an army marches on its stomach, does a college think on its stomach? Or to put it more elegantly, intellectual and physical activities are equally dependent on proper sustenance. Replacing the kitchen in a domestic home can be a traumatic upheaval for the residents. Refurbishing the College kitchens is more like a military operation – and that is how the Kitchen Build Sub-Committee is approaching it, well-armed, with good intelligence, proper preparation and plenty of time for reconnaissance. Occasional visitors and guests who come to Caius for winter feasts and summer buffet lunches may be surprised to learn how urgently the proposed new facilities are needed. For many years, successive teams of chefs and kitchen staff have worked heroically to provide course after course of mouth-watering delicacies – but behind the scenes, it has been a challenging task to prepare, store and serve several hundred meals simultaneously, at the right time and temperature, because of the outdated design of the kitchens. The College kitchens were last refurbished half a century ago, in the 1960s. According to the Chairman of the SubCommittee, Professor Axel Zeitler (2005): ‘The ovens now heat the kitchens more than

1 Once a Caian Issue 18 8-18.qxp_Once a Caian... 9-12 Issue 12 28/09/2018 11:24 Page 25

they heat the food!’ The number and complexity of meals produced has increased considerably, putting extra strain on inadequate ventilation systems and causing unacceptable levels of humidity for the staff. Food prepared on the ground floor must be transported to the first and second floors and kept warm until served. There are a number of important benchmarks to be applied to the proposed facilities. They must enable the College to comply easily with current safety standards and working conditions for staff and with all current regulations on food hygiene and preparation. The new kitchens are intended to serve the College for the next fifty years: there is no doubt that all these legal and other requirements will grow more exacting in the years to come, so there must be room for manoeuvre and further improvements. Think how tastes and standards have changed over the past few years: everyone values fresh food more highly. Caterers must offer vegetarian or Vegan alternatives, they must cope with religious diets, allergies to

nuts, seafood, gluten and dairy products and other rapidly changing needs. The whole task has become much more complex and the Caius Catering Manager, Ricardo Soares, and his team, have succeeded in rising to these challenges despite the serious failings of existing facilities. For Caius, it is not simply a matter of feeding staff, Fellows and students. Members of the Sub-Committee are keenly aware of the importance of the tradition of dining in Hall, how it shapes the community and helps it to prosper. Unlike some other colleges, Caius has continued a minimum dining requirement (MDR) under which students pay for and attend a certain number of dinners each term to maintain a collegiate dining atmosphere. The kitchen project is ‘a catalyst to encourage dining in College’ and the Sub-Committee has engaged with students to ensure that their preferences will be met by the new arrangements. The plan at this stage is for work to start in the summer of 2019, immediately Jennifer Philips (1996), Director of Operations

after the Open Days in the first week of July. Most catering will move to Harvey Court, with a possibility that the Cavonius Centre may be temporarily adapted to house formal Hall. First Hall will be replaced by a cafeteria service in a marquee outside the Harvey Court JCR. Once the refurbishment is completed, the plan is to offer a cafeteria-style option at Harvey Court on a handful of nights each week and to bring new life to the JCR for students by providing a daytime café service. Since most first and second year students either live on the West Caius site or gravitate to it, there is an opportunity to provide additional service there and possibly to extend it to members of other colleges working on the Sidgwick site. The main kitchens at the Old Courts will switch from gas to electric induction cooking, to reduce humidity and the need for ventilation, so there will be a dramatic change in power requirements. Axel advises that ‘Sustainability is a big item on the agenda. The aim is to come up with a design

that will cut demand by avoiding waste of energy.’ They are reluctant to put additional ventilator and extraction systems on the roof because of noise pollution. Staff facilities will be improved, the storage areas will be rationalised and the inward/outward flow from the main entrance to the kitchen will be brought up to modern standards. The lift system will be completely upgraded and the curiously angled ‘dumb waiter’ currently used to serve High Table decommissioned. If the City Conservation officers and Historic England permit, the Servery beside the Hall will be enlarged and adapted with a new roof design to improve working conditions and doors at the far end to facilitate service flow. The Pantry on the first floor, which serves the Fellows’ Dining Room, the Panelled Combination Room and, out of term, the ‘White’ Room, will also be redesigned and made more fit for purpose. This is a massive undertaking and not one the College has entered into lightly. The cost of building works and the improvements to facilities will run to many millions. The Sub-Committee is doing all in its power to minimise expenditure, while not exactly cutting corners, as they are determined to build state-of-the-art kitchens, to serve the College for half a century. Their first major decision was to postpone the project by a full year, in order to save substantial fees for outside consultants and instead to employ a considerable amount of in-house expertise from both Fellows and staff members. As Axel says: ‘It’s a great journey we’re on – and it will become tremendously more nerve-wracking and exciting next year!’.

Doing the Dab Dining with graduands at the traditional Dr Caius Dinner, before Graduation in June 2018, the Master, Professor Sir Alan Fersht (1963), took the opportunity to familiarise himself with one or two of the latest disco-dance moves. Students watching Sir Alan’s valedictory address were delighted by the natural ease with which he performed a dramatic manoeuvre know as ‘the dab’, where the dancer drops his head into one crooked elbow while stretching out the other arm in triumph. Usain Bolt does a version of the dab, which has become an Internet meme. Sir Alan congratulated graduands on completing their various courses, in which 93% of Caians achieved Firsts or 2:1s. The congratulations were mutual. The students were hugely impressed that the Master was so adept in executing a move that few people over 21 would know about. The next day, they demonstrated their affection again: realising it was the last time Sir Alan would be graduating students, they waited to give him a rousing round of applause as he left the Senate House.

The President of the Royal Albert Hall, Jon Moynihan, has kindly provided information on the provenance of the Caius Box, which is available for a wide range of performances by Members and Associate Members of the Court of Benefactors. Box 22, in the centre of the Grand Tier, is regarded as the finest in the house. The Hall’s Archivist, Suzanne Keyte, has revealed that the Box was originally purchased in 1871 by the 2nd Duke of Wellington, the son of the victor of Waterloo. On his death in 1884, it was passed down through the family until the 4th Duke sold it in 1924 to William Tapp (1877). When Tapp died in 1936, his Will established a Trust into which he put the Box and property in London, valued at more than £200,000, to provide for his surviving family members and to endow Scholarships and Fellowships at Caius, particularly in Law and Jurisprudence. Today, the Tapp Trust is worth £16 million and is the largest restricted fund in the College endowment.

Arguing the Point Michael Barratt (1955) attended the Reception at the State Library in Sydney in April 2018 and presented a couple of historic documents to be conveyed to the College Archivist, James Cox. The first was his Bumps Supper programme from 1956, a time when the Boat Club Treasurer was one M J Prichard, Esq. LLB. The menu features an intriguing delicacy ‘Grassy Corner Pudding’, the recipe for which is sadly lost. Michael also handed over a flyer for the Cambridge Union, advertising the third debate of the Easter Term of 1959: ‘This House disapproves of Her Majesty’s Government’s policy in Africa’. This prompted the Proposer, Lord Tugendhat (1957) to recall how the subject arose: ‘The debate was a memorable one that I doubt could happen now. Some months beforehand my mother fetched me at the end of term and we had lunch at a pub – the Bath, I think, then very upmarket. As I was inveighing against the wickedness of British policy in Nyasaland, the man at the next table turned round and told me I was speaking nonsense. It was Alan Lennox-Boyd. We chatted for a while and I asked him to continue the debate at the Union, which he did. In the event Gordon Walker scratched and Arthur Bottomley took his place. I can’t see a cabinet minister behaving today as Lennox-Boyd did then. My side won the debate and it was that, I think, which enabled me to go on to become President.’

A True Blue Dr Mike Franklin (1975), CUBC Archivist, writes: No Caians rowed in the four famous victories over Oxford on Boat Race Day 2018, but one made a major contribution from beyond the grave. A legacy from Ian Lang (1946) paid most of the cost of the gleaming, new Empacher shell in which the men’s Blue Boat glided to their three-length victory. Ian was Captain of Boats at school and rowed at six in the victorious Blue Boat of 1947, a rare distinction for a freshman at the time. The next year, he was not selected for the Boat Race, although later chosen to be ‘spare man’ for the British eight at the Olympic regatta in Henley in August 1948. Cambridge had a surfeit of stroke-siders and CUBC’s records reveal that Ian failed to make the transition to bow-side.

Nevertheless, he was elected President for 1948-9, when three Olympic medallists were available for selection. He was destined never to row again in the Race, being forced by the new National Service Act to resign the Presidency in January 1949, on call-up to the RAF. He returned in Lent 1951, took his BA in one of the precursors of Land Economy and became a land agent. Ian’s major legacy was to CUBC, but he also left money to the Caius Boat Club and the Chapel. The new CUBC shell arrived in time for use in practice and was formally named by Ian’s daughter at a ceremony on ‘the hard’ in Putney at the start of Tideway week. CUBC

Winning the Cold War The Hon John Lehman, President of the US Caius Foundation, is so far the only Captain of the Caius Boat Club who has managed to row his way to an appointment as Secretary to the US Navy (1981-87), although others are hoping to emulate this attractive career path. John has just published a fascinating book about the period of world history in which he had a close personal involvement, Oceans Ventured – Winning the Cold War at Sea. John details the strategy carried out under Ronald Reagan’s presidency, to build the US Navy ‘s strength back to 600 ships and 15 aircraft carriers and then to deploy them close enough to the USSR to provoke a similar investment in response. He argues that the additional pressure on the Soviet economy produced precisely the result intended, bankrupting the whole system and leading directly to the fall of the Berlin Wall and ultimately the USSR itself. John’s message is crystal clear: ‘The lesson of this book is that we must restore the capability of our naval forces and sailors not because we might have to go to war with North Korea, Russia, Iran or some other adversary but because we must prevent having to go to war at all.’ Readable Realpolitik from a genuine insider.

n the 21st century our College has active relationships that date back to the middle of the 14th century. In 1354 William Bateman, Gonville’s Bishop and executor, arranged for the appropriation of the rectories at Mutford, Foulden and Wilton to the College. These advowsons, the right to present a nominee for appointment to a vacant ecclesiastical benefice or church living, also gave the College control over the income that was derived from the parish. Bateman’s purpose was to shore up the finances of Gonville Hall, as

Advowsons & Livings

two thirds of the tithes from these parishes would come to the College, with the final third being used to support the vicar. A tithe was traditionally one tenth of the produce of each parishioner, either from the agricultural harvest or output from other trades. These three parishes were in Bateman’s own Diocese of Norwich, though Wilton, which was enlarged to become the parish of Hockwold with Wilton and Weeting in the seventeenth century, is now in the Diocese of Ely. Following on from Bateman’s gift, which places him amongst our greatest benefactors as well as being our second Founder, further parishes became associated with the College. In 1370, the advowson of Mattishall was acquired and these four Norfolk parishes became the mainstay of the endowment of the College, until it began to attract benefactions from individuals, such as the three wealthy women, Elizabeth Clare, Anne Scroop and Joyce Frankland, who provided for Fellows and students, mainly in divinity, to sing masses for their souls. What was designed to provide the College with an income is now, six centuries later, a responsibility. The right of Lay Rectors to collect a tithe from a parish has been abolished and instead clergy stipends are now funded by the giving of congregations through the Parish Share. As Patron, Caius does retain the right to be involved whenever the parish is seeking to appoint a new minister. This is handled by the College’s Chapel and Patronage Committee, usually

through the Dean, the Revd Dr Cally Hammond. A recent challenge is how to exercise this responsibility when there is pressure to consolidate a number of rural parishes into a single joint benefice, looked after by a single priest. In the past if two parishes were merged, patronage would be exercised by rotation but increasingly this is being replaced by having a single vote on a board. This dilutes the role of the Patrons, in favour of the Bishop, and erodes the relationship the College has had with the parish for centuries. Interestingly, the parishes often appreciate the value of an independent voice in making appointments. In cases where the College is Lay Rector there is also a financial liability for the upkeep of the Chancel, that portion of the building near the altar, typically separated from the nave by steps or a screen. I saw examples of this when I visited Foulden and Mutford in June and July this year. In 2013 the College paid for the restoration of the Chancel roof at Foulden, but more recently when the Parochial Church Council wanted to install bird screens in the North and South entrances to the Church, they were obliged to finance them themselves through local fundraising and the generosity of a

benefactor, as the doors are located in the nave of the church. By contrast at Mutford, the congregation were delighted to show me the recently installed new chancel door which has been paid for by the College. Over the centuries, the College has acquired further livings, both large and small. The Perpendicular Church of St Peter and St Paul in Lavenham is one of England’s largest wool churches, whilst St Margaret’s Worthing is a smaller example of a Norfolk Round Tower Church. Although there is a concentration in the Norwich Diocese, outlying parishes include Bincombe in Dorset where the College also has a significant landholding as a result of a Manor purchased by Dr Caius; another is Bratton Flemming in Devon where Bartholomew Wortley (1670) was Rector for 44 years following his retirement from the Fellowship; St Mary the Virgin in Beachampton is now on the edge of Milton Keynes; and St Mary’s Church in the market place of Stockport, Greater Manchester, is one of the livings most recently acquired by the College, in 1910. In many of these churches there are visible signs of the connection to Caius. These can be lists of previous incumbents, often indicating those who were members of

...Always a Caian 37 the College, or the College crest appearing in stained glass windows or embroidered on hassocks (kneelers). In some cases Ministers have been interred in their Churches, and their association with the College is prominently recorded. At Wilton, a gravestone in the chancel floor reads ‘Sacred to the Memory of Edward White Clk, A.M, Late Fellow of Caius & Gonville Coll, Cambridge. Rector for 23 years of Hockwold cum Wilton, who departed this life Octbr 21st. 1805.’ Some years ago, Geoffrey Smeed (1959) sent me a picture of a memorial to the Rev William Atthill (1790) in Brandiston Church in Norfolk, where the College was also referred to as Caius & Gonville. The most potent demonstration of these important historic relationships can be experienced on a daily basis in the College Chapel during term time, when all our parishes and their incumbents feature in the College’s monthly cycle of prayer used at Morning Prayer.
