Crescendo also means ldquoincreasing in loudnessrdquo and it has certainly done that When I was given the job of chairing the Anniversary on the 9th of October 2009 worldwide little did I know that it would take over my life and have as Irsquod hoped it would a life of its own You can see the culmination of othersrsquo efforts listed in this June issue of the Magna Carta Newsletter at least of some of those things happened of which we are aware Hundreds of activities in hundreds of villages such as Odiham towns such as Faversham and cities like Durham Lincoln Salisbury and Canterbury and the City of London by a constitutionalist like the University of Virginiarsquos Professor Dick Howardrsquos lectures in the British Libraryrsquos Eccles Centre at the American Embassy and elsewhere in academic symposia in Grenada and Barbados Amiens and Luxembourg Canterbury and Lincoln Washington and

Beijing and in many cathedrals castles and universities throughout the world

Address by Her Majesty from 1953

Lest we fail to remember in the ldquopicnic in the parkrdquo and ldquoLiberTeasrdquo celebrations of the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta let us also Commemorate the ldquoAddress by Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Second at the unveiling of the Runnymede Memorial 17th October 1953rdquo adjacent to the Runnymede Meadow

ldquoThis memorial has been built in proud memory of the men and women of the Air Forces of the British Commonwealth and Empire who lost their lives serving from bases in the United Kingdom and North-West Europe in the Second World War and who have no known graves

ldquoThey were part of a glorious and far larger company who laid down their lives for freedom and this memorial is one of many others built wherever the battle raged so that they may not be forgotten Twenty thousand four hundred and fifty-five names are recorded on these stones and all races and countries of the British Commonwealth have here their representatives

ldquoIt is very fitting that those who rest in nameless graves should be remembered in this place For it was in those fields of Runnymede seven centuries ago that our forefathers first planted a seed of liberty which helped to spread across the earth the conviction that man should be free

and not enslaved And when the life of this belief was threatened by the iron hand of tyranny their successors came forward without hesitation to fight and if it was demanded of them to die for its salvation As only free men can they knew the value of that for which they fought and that the price was worth paying

ldquoThey were alone in this knowledge and in this sacrifice At this very hour a memorial porch is being unveiled in Chelmsford Cathedral to commemorate some of those American airmen who fought together with us against the same aggression

ldquoWith prophetic insight Pope wrote of this hill on which we stand

ldquolsquoOn Cooperrsquos Hill eternal wreaths shall grow While lasts the mountain or while Thames shall flowrsquo

ldquoIndeed the heroism of each be remembered for as long as this memorial shall stand But that which was done by all will with Godrsquos help still be remembered when these stones have crumbled into dust For wherever and for as long as freedom flourishes on the earth the men and women who possess it will thank them and will say they did not die in vain This is their true and everlasting memorialrdquo

Arundel Castle Celebrates Magna Carta

Arundel Castle in West Sussex (pictured) is to host an exhibition exploring the role that Magna Carta has played throughout its history

The famous clause 13 lsquoTo no one will we sell to no one deny or delay right of justicersquo came to be seen as the foundation of English Liberty and freedom in subsequent centuries ndash with Charles Howard the 11th Duke of Norfolk a keen supporter of this

With his political ideals of liberty and justice in mind the 11th Duke opted for a Gothic restoration of Arundel Castle in the 1790s including a carved stone relief of King Alfred instituting Trial by Jury The great Baronsrsquo Hall at Arundel Castle was originally built by the Duke in commemoration of the Magna Carta Barons He also hosted a lavish party at Arundel Castle in 1815 to commemorate the 600th anniversary or Magna Carta

Keen to maintain the Castlersquos reverence for Magna Carta this year its exhibition will be dedicated to the historic Charter The exhibition will contain letters photographs and other material from the Duke of Norfolkrsquos Library and Archives

Castle Manager Bryan McDonald comments ldquoThe significance of Magna Carta has not waned in the 800 years since its confirmation It feels particularly fitting that Arundel Castle should commemorate its 800th anniversary even if not on the same scale as Charles Howardrsquos celebrations of the 600th anniversary in 1815 We hope that our visitors will enjoy the opportunity to explore some of the treasures from Arundel Castlersquos Archives and learn more about how Magna Carta influenced the Castlersquos historyrdquo
