  • Autistic adults’ experiences of managing wellbeing and implications for social prescribing

    Open AccessCharlotte Featherstone, Richard Sharpe et al.ARTICLEDisability & Society2023Cited by: 2References: 12

    Autistic people demonstrate poor outcomes on objective measures of wellbeing, yet research centring lived experience provides a more nuanced picture. There is growing support for person-centred, holistic and community approaches to enhancing wellbeing for autistic people. Social prescribing may be one such approach. This qualitative study explored the concept of wellbeing for autistic adults - including barriers and self-management - and the impl…

  • Subversive Acts

    Open AccessDavid X Carpenter, David Carpenter et al.ARTICLEHistory2018

    Three charters for the men of Beverley, in Yorkshire, appear at first sight to be products of the first half of the twelfth century, and so among the oldest surviving borough charters. As such, they have been repeatedly printed or referenced in books which consider the origins of English civic institutions. Careful analysis of their script and text, however, reveals that they were forged during the last quarter of the twelfth century. This articl…

  • The Earliest Norman Sheriffs

    Open AccessRichard SharpeARTICLEHistory2016

    Before the Norman Conquest the Latin word used for sheriff is usually praepositus , and after the Conquest it is uicecomes . The article focuses on two Latin diplomas from the beginning of William I's reign in which minister is used for sheriff, a word which was otherwise in transition from signifying thegn before the Conquest to reeve or bailiff after. This crossover in the words used in royal charters reflects Norman thought as to the character…

  • Tadhg Gaelach Ó Súilleabháin's Pious Miscellany

    Richard Sharpe, Richard Bowdler SharpeARTICLEProceedings of the Royal Irish…2014

    A selection of 25 Irish poems, first printed at Clonmel in 1802, became a bestseller with several different booksellers in Cork issuing competing editions, especially during the 1820s and 1830s. Usually known as Tadhg Gaelach's Pious Miscellany, it sold more copies than any other literary work in Irish, so that the bookseller Seán Ó Dálaigh could call it in 1848 ‘work at the present day in the hands of almost every peasant in Munster’. Its succes…

  • The last years of Herbert the Chamberlain

    Open AccessRichard SharpeARTICLEHistorical Research2009

    C. W. Hollister identified H. the chamberlain, punished with mutilation for his part in a plot against the life of Henry I around 1118, with Herbert the Chamberlain, long connected with the king's treasury at Winchester. Herbert's death in 1129 had long ago been inferred from the Pipe Roll of 31 Henry I, but Hollister had already developed an argument against too easy acceptance that a relief in a pipe roll provided evidence for a person's very r…

  • The use of writs in the eleventh century

    Open AccessRichard SharpeARTICLEAnglo-Saxon England2003Cited by: 2

    The central subject of this discussion is a particular diplomatic form that lasted in England for at most some two hundred years, the writ-charter. When it first appeared is obscure for want of surviving examples, but the reign of King Edgar would be a plausible guess. Its extinction in the 1160s is less obscure, and we may even hazard why it came about at that time, when Henry II's government was changing both the role of local courts and the us…
