First live streamed during the 2021 Winchester Heritage Open Days festival, this talk is given by Alex Beeton, a second year PhD student in history at Oxford University researching education in the Civil Wars. The 1640s and 1650s were a time of Roundheads and Cavaliers, Charles I and Oliver Cromwell. It was a time of great battles and the only public execution of an English monarch for treason in history. But what did you do if you were on the losing side? This was the question facing Winchester College, which had been resolutely royalist in the 1640s and found itself having to live under a new English republic. In this talk, drawn from research for Alex's PhD, he delves into local archives to explain how the school survived with its royalist staff in place. After discussing the City of Winchester and Hampshire in the Civil Wars, he details how the school authorities were able to use friends in high places to secure immunity from any attempts to replace them. Alex looks into the deeply human stories of friendships and alliances across the political divide and how a canny political operator was able to survive under a hostile government using any means at his disposal. As Alex will show, even a sugarloaf could be a valuable weapon in the right hands. Please note the first 14 minutes have been re-recorded, due to recording issues at the time of the live stream.
