Capuciis Furruratis cum Serico Duplicatis
Beginning in the fifteenth century, silk linings were introduced into the academic hoods of the senior degrees for use during the summer (officially between Easter and All Saints) as a cooler alternative to the expensive fur. Bachelors (other than those in Divinity and Canon Law) were still required to line their hoods with cheap fur throughout the year. Although the 1443 foundation statutes of All Souls College, Oxford, require graduate fellows …
The Academic Dress of Doctors of Philosophy at the University of London
The introduction at the University of London of the Doctor of Philosophy degree led to the need for appropriate academic costume. The Senate was formally responsible for regulating the academic dress of the University, but Convocation traditionally took the lead in the matter, and prepared reports for consideration by the Senate. Accordingly, the Establishment and General Purposes Committee of the Senate wrote to the Standing Committee of Convoca…
Coloured Velvet is Too Gaudy
The University of London’s original system of academic dress was adopted by the Senate in 1844, and made extensive use of velvet on both gowns and hoods. In 1861 London adopted a radically new system, which eliminated the use of velvet and which has (with various amendments and additions) remained recognizably in use to this day. This article tells the story of how the revision came about, by tracing its progress through the Minute Book of Convoc…

Not Just Cyberwarfare
Living in an Impossible World
Many accounts of online trust are based upon mechanisms for building reputation. Trust is portrayed as desirable, and handing off trust is easier if trust is modelled to be transitive. But in the analysis of cyber-security protocols, trust is usually used as a substitute for certain knowledge: it follows that if there is no residual risk, then there is no need for trust. On this grimmer understanding, the less that users are required to trust, th…
Wearing Mummy’s Clothes
This note is based upon the observation that the academic dress (AD) adopted by (former) British colonies and dominions potentially provides an archaeological record of UK AD. Court and legal dress became fossilized in the eighteenth century and have remained largely (indeed almost completely) unchanged since then. In contrast, AD in the UK has continued to evolve in response to demands made by its wearers and by the authorities which imposed its…
