		His address was entitled "The Writing on the Wall: London's Old Jewry and John Stow's Urban Palimpsest." Dr. Harris received his Ph.D. from the University of Sussex and is currently a professor in the English Department at George Washington University.
		In the terms of Freud's mystic pad, Stow reads London's Protestant present as the magically clean sheet that disavows but cannot fully conceal the multiple inscriptions of a non-Protestant and even Jewish past that is legible in the material substrate of the city's architecture.
		That Stow feels nostalgic for pre-Reformation rituals and monuments erased by several decades of Protestant iconoclasm is hardly a radical claim.

	John Stow and the Survey of London in The AnswerBank: Arts & Literature
		John Stow was a 16th-century London tailor, who, among other things, was one of the first writers in England to use what we would consider proper documentary evidence to produce well-researched historical works.
		Stow expressed his hope, in his dedication to the Lord Mayor, that similar works might be organised into a 'whole body of the English chorography'.
		All of this Stow regarded with suspicion and unease, but what really angered him was the disappearance of open spaces and the destruction of church monuments, as old graves were emptied to make room for the new dead.

	What's in a Name? The Transmission of "John Skelton, Laureate" in Manuscript and Print
		Such instances suggest that the title laureate may have been adopted equally unthinkingly and that its sheer frequency in Stow's edition is the result of his use of a number of editions of individual works as copy-text for a single printed book.
		X is a relatively late binding of earlier material, at least some of which was in the possession of John Stow, whose signature appears on folio 2V.
		In Tab's edition as well as Stow's, Elynour Rummyng is given a double title that perhaps suggests the reproduction of the wording on both the title page and the first leaf of an earlier individual edition (possibly that of 1521, STC 22611.5).
