Cambridge Camden Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Cambridge Camden Society held tremendous influence in the architectural and ecclesiastical worlds because of the success of this argument: that the corruption and ugliness of the 19th century could be escaped by the earnest attempt to recapture the piety and beauty of the Middle Ages. The society’s advice soon found a forum in the Ecclesiologist, the Cambridge Camden Society’s newsletter, the first issue of which was published in October, 1841. Although the Camden Society claimed to be solely concerned with architecture, its criticism and praise of designers was often based as much on their personal convictions as it was on Gothic correctness. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Cambridge_Camden_Society   (1713 words)

The Camden Society was named in his honour in 1838. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/William_Camden   (908 words)

AIM25: Royal Historical Society: Camden Society Membership of the Society was by annual subscription of £1, and an annual meeting was to be held on the 2 May - the birthday of William Camden (1551-1623, historian and antiquary). The Camden Society was facing financial difficulties by the early 1880s, exacerbated by a failed project to compile a general index to the first 100 volumes that it had printed. In 1896 it was suggested that the Society amalgamate with the Royal Historical Society, and that united membership of the two societies would be large enough to support the annual publication of two Camden volumes and one of the RHS proceedings. www.aim25.ac.uk /cats/78/7224.htm   (971 words)
