CCCU History

"Not many Universities are on a World Heritage Site with access to Cathedral archives." History postgrad story #cccu canterbury.ac.uk/study-here/pos…

Dr Doreen Rosman will tell the stories of martyrs of different religious persuasions: what they had in common and where they differed, why the state punished them and why some were forgotten for centuries while others were commemorated.

Lily-Belle and Iva asked if they could have a graduation photo with the Mary Elizabeth Braddon Archive #Braddon @ICVWW and of course we were happy to oblige @ccculibrary @CCCUArtsHumsEd Well done!

These are the moments that make it all seem special - two of my wonderful archive volunteers Lily-Belle and Iva came to find me for this photo #cccuproud
