Haunted lives
This study is the first to investigate the relationship between biomedical concepts of trauma and local understandings of mapepo (resentful spirits) in Ituri province, northeastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Drawing on ethnographic research with affected families, healers, and health workers, we argue that trauma and mapepo function as co-constitutive elements within a syndemic of suffering. These are mutually reinforcing afflictions int…
Charles II and ‘Liberty to Tender Consciences’
A newly discovered unpublished declaration of Charles II on ‘ecclesiastical affairs’ of November 1661 allows us to reassess the making of the religious settlement of 1660–3. The declaration contains a review of developments since his return to England and demonstrates the king’s unwavering commitment to honour his promise at Breda of a ‘liberty to tender consciences’ to accompany the return of episcopal government and worship with the Prayer Book…
Witnessing Health and Place
The death of Brazilian photographer and photojournalist Sebastião Salgado in May 2025 invites renewed reflection on photography's role in shaping global health narratives. Celebrated for his evocative black‐and‐white images that document human suffering and resilience, Salgado's work has addressed international issues, such as labour, migration, indigeneity and environmental degradation. Among an extensive portfolio, his documentation of global p…
Novel risk assessment framework to compare shark‐bite mitigation strategies
Human–wildlife conflicts (HWCs) are increasing globally and are some of the most pervasive problems for the conservation of terrestrial and marine species. Stakeholders often hold different values and concerns surrounding HWCs, and understanding these values and their relative importance among stakeholders allows for more effective decision‐making. We developed a multi‐objective decision analysis framework to compare and assist in determining pre…
Co-creating cultural narratives for sustainable rural development
Place-based social-ecological research is crucial for understanding local sustainability challenges. However, lack of transferability of insights to other locations and to larger scales remains challenging. In this paper, we present a novel transdisciplinary learning framework that links notions of cultural heritage, landscape, and social-ecological systems thinking to support sustainable rural development. Continuous dialogue, learning, and coll…

Unbracketing the multiplicity of trauma in North Kivu, Democratic Republic of Congo
As international health organizations have increasingly acknowledged the global burden of psychological trauma, global health experts have sought to appraise and organize the treatment of trauma through objective, neutral forms of classification and calculation. Rather than see trauma as a singular thing whose biological, social and psychological formation is bracketed by expert perspectives, this paper focuses on how psychological trauma is enac…
The English Presbyterian Conundrum of 1660-1
This article aims to explain the failure of the English presbyterian programme to reform the church at the Restoration. Specifically, it analyses the period between March 1660, when the Long Parliament reaffirmed the Solemn League and Covenant, and May 1661, when the Cavalier Parliament ordered that document to be burned by the common hangman. This striking transformation is what we refer to as the ‘presbyterian conundrum’. Focusing primarily on …
The Challenge of Sustaining Effective Teaching
Predictors of Suicide Ideation and Attempt Planning in a Large Sample of New Zealand Help-Seekers
Risk factors were identified for both suicide ideation and for suicide attempt planning. While some of these risk factors have been reported in existing literature, there are also risk factors unique to the present study that could inform and improve suicide-screening procedures administered by clinicians or helplines

The tyranny of empty shelves
At the margins of the global scale‐up of antiretroviral treatment for HIV, the Democratic Republic of the Congo has experienced severe regional stock‐outs of essential medicines.

Attention to the local consequences of scarcity in the east of the cou…

From Estate under Pressure to Spiritual Pressure Group
This essay traces the mutating place of the anglican bishops within the house of lords to explore revolutionary changes in the relationship between religion, parliament and political pressure from the late 17th to the 20th centuries. After the Restoration, the lords spiritual reoccupied a contested position in the upper chamber as representatives of the clerical estate of the realm. During the 18th century, they began to act as representatives of…
Failing to catch up in reading in the middle years
To understand and be understood
Whilst interdisciplinarity has become a central concern of research and learning in geography, few from the discipline have considered the practical facilitation of interdisciplinarity in the classroom. Module convenors, I argue, must pay greater attention to how learners engage and negotiate with peers and perspectives from other disciplines. In this paper, I focus on my own efforts in designing and teaching a second year undergraduate course on…
Making space for restoration
Global health policymakers have recently begun to focus their attention on high levels of untreated mental illness in low‐ and middle‐income countries. They have, in turn, initiated a series of interventions intended to reduce the global ‘treatment gap’ that has emerged between those requiring treatment and those able to access it. Yet critics have challenged the questionable epistemological assumptions embedded in these interventions and have de…
Pre-exposure prophylaxis to prevent the acquisition of HIV-1 infection (PROUD)
BACKGROUND: Randomised placebo-controlled trials have shown that daily oral pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) with tenofovir-emtricitabine reduces the risk of HIV infection. However, this benefit could be counteracted by risk compensation in users of PrEP. We did the PROUD study to assess this effect. METHODS: PROUD is an open-label randomised trial done at 13 sexual health clinics in England. We enrolled HIV-negative gay and other men who have sex…

The politics of self-help
Sir Robert Walpole, the Church of England, and the Quakers Tithe Bill of 1736
The Church of England has received little attention either as an issue or as a force in mid-eighteenth-century politics. The contrast with the immediate post-revolutionary decades, when the Church and churchmen were at the centre of political debate, is striking. This development has been explained in terms of the achievement of political stability, one manifestation of which was the transition from the whig–tory dichotomy of the reign of Anne in…

William Warburton and the Alliance of Church and State
In January 1736 an anonymous pamphlet appeared under the title, The Alliance between Church and State, or the Necessity of an Established Religion, and a Test Law demonstrated . Its author was William Warburton, a well-to-do but still comparatively obscure country clergyman. Although this was only his second publication in the field of divinity, he was already revealing the taste for controversy which was to characterise his literary career. The …
Whigs, bishops and America
The eighteenth century is traditionally seen as an interlude between two vigorous movements of church reform. This article explores the problems and attitudes which underlay the absence of major structural reform of the Church in this period. To do so, it examines the failure of attempts, especially those of the 1740s and 1750s, to create an anglican episcopate in the American colonies. The leaders of the Church of England were agreed that the ne…

Generalizability of a Cluster Solution Over Time
This study investigated the generalizability across time of a cluster analysis that identified five groups with differing motivations for visiting a National Historic Landmark. Replication of the initial study after a one-year time period suggested the same visitor types (i.e., clusters) were present in both study years; however, the relative size of the clusters varied by up to ten percent. A group defined by motivations scores in the middle of …

The Church of England c.1689–c.1833
After decades of neglect there has been a resurgence of interest in the history of the Church of England in 'the long eighteenth century'. This volume of essays brings together the fruits of some of this research. Most of the essays have been written, not by traditional ecclesiastical historians, but by political, social and cultural historians, a fact which reflects the diversity of approaches to the study of the Church of England in the eightee…
Introduction: The Church and Anglicanism in the ‘long’ eighteenth century
Despite some valuable recent studies, most notably Jonathan Clark's influential English Society 1688–1832 (1985), the history of the eighteenth-century Church of England has long been neglected. In 1860 Mark Pattison wrote that ‘the genuine Anglican omits that period from the history of the Church altogether. In constructing his Catena Patrum he closes his list with Waterland or Brett, and leaps at once to 1833, when the Tracts for the Times comm…

Queenship in Britain, 1660-1837
This is an important book, which has been attractively produced by Manchester University Press. It is, indeed, as Clarissa Campbell Orr claims in her introduction, a ‘pioneering’ attempt to link ‘court studies with women's history’ (p. 1). The volume works well because it brings together the work of some of the most interesting scholars in the field; it thus provides an excellent overview of the current state of scholarship, elegantly contextuali…
The Imperial Origins of the King's Church in Early America, 1607-1783
Perhaps the most surprising thing about this book is that no one has written it before. There are, of course, many studies of aspects of Anglicanism in the colonial period, especially the controversy over proposals to create an episcopate. But no one has attempted, as Bell does, to delineate the structures and organisation of the Church of England—‘the King's Church’, as he describes it—in the mainland colonies of North America. He discharges the…
