Term 2: The Renaissance reviewed:Florence, Rome and Venice 14001520. The

revival o interest in all aspects o classical

culture that constituted the Renaissance in

Italy altered the way in which man saw himsel

in 19th-century Britain. In Victorian Britain,

conict emerged between those artists and

key themes o population, religion, social

groupings, education, agriculture and local and

Term 1: The medieval town. The two

centuries ollowing the Norman Conquest saw

a huge escalation in urban growth in England

with both the expansion o established

towns and the creation o new settlements.

Ater the population crises o the early 14th

century, this was ollowed by two centuries

o urban restructuring as the economy came

to terms with the drastic decline in people

and with changes to trade patterns. This unit

will consider urban development throughout

the medieval period with a particular ocuson the lives o medieval town-dwellers and

how these diered rom those o their country

cousins. There will also be an emphasis on the

experience o East Anglian towns including

Cambridge, Newmarket and Thetord.

Term 2: Religious identities and social

change 17001900. From the cradle to the

grave, religion was an almost inescapable

element o Georgian and Victorian lie, itsinuence extending ar beyond rites o passage

into education, welare, politics, economics,

even leisure and entertainment. This unit

examines the way in which the near monopoly

o the State Church gradually gave way in

most localities to a multiplicity o religious

identities Dissenter, Methodist, Catholic and

Jew and explores how religious language and

organisation were used to give expression to

regional, ethnic, amily, social and aspirationalidentities. Was this the engine that drove Britains

evolution into a diverse and democratic society?

Term 3: Researching your local

community. Understanding the history

o local communities involves coming to

grips with both a long period o time and

a wide variety o subjects. This unit aims to

help you rise to this challenge by enhancing

your understanding o how our towns andvillages developed rom their beginnings to

the present day. It explores the key themes o

population, religion, social groups, education,

agriculture and local and regional industries.

The unit is aimed at all who want to improve
