13th Century Pubs in OXFORD | Vlog #4
Oct 16, 2017
We toured Oxford & Bampton, where a lot of Downton Abbey was filmed! It was such a great day!! *Sorry about the poor picture quality. I am still just using my iPhone 5s for filming & it was a very hazy day due to the hurricane blowing in dust.

Observations from inside the pub. A very nice little place, I wanted to capture the mood of the Pub after we had had lunch there.

We had lunch at the Eagle and Child, which has been an inn since 1650. The literary group known as the Inklings, which included C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, met here between 1939 and 1962 in the Rabbit Room. Apparently you weren't allowed to join the group unless you reduced your first and middle names to initials.
We also ate (and drank, of course) at the Bear, one of Oxford's smallest and oldest pubs, dating to 1242.
Our last pub in Oxford was the Turf Tavern, where we enjoyed the outdoor seating area. Dating back to 1381, it is hidden at the end of a long, twisting alley.
I've shared the story of the Protestant martyrs Latimer, Ridley, and Cranmer in previous videos, but I'll remind you of it once more as we pay a visit to the Martyr's Memorial, erected in 1843. On October 16, 1555, two leaders of the Protestant movement, Bishop Ridley and Bishop Latimer, were burnt at the stake on the orders of the Catholic monarch, Mary Tudor. Latimer's famous last words to his comrad were: Be of good comfort, Master Ridley, and play the man. We shall this day light such a candle by God's grace in England as I trust shall never be put out. Thomas Cranmer, the Protestant-leaning Archbishop of Canterbury, was forced to watch. Terrified at the prospect of facing a similar fate, Cranmer signed a recantation of his beliefs. He was later brought to the Church of St Mary the Virgin, where he was supposed to publicly renounce his Protestant views, but instead he renounced his recantation and reaffirmed his true theological convictions. Ultimately he was taken to the same spot where Latimer and Ridley had been executed and himself burned at the stake. As a final gesture of piety, he thrust the hand with which he had signed the earlier recantations into the flames so that it would burn first, declaring: This hand hath offended! His final words were: Jesus, receive my spirit. I see the heavens open and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. The actual site where all three of the Oxford Martyrs were burned at the stake is marked with a cobblestone cross in the middle of the street.
A block further down the same street is the Sheldonian Theater. The “bearded ones,” installed in 1669, stare down menacingly from atop the railings that separate the theater from the street. Busts like these were used to mark boundaries in antiquity. The faces had become badly weathered over the centuries so they were re-sculpted in the 1970s. The Sheldonian, commissioned in 1662, was Christopher Wren’s first architectural project at the age of 30. Originally built as an assembly hall for university ceremonies, today it is most often used for concerts, a tradition that began with a performance by Handel in 1733.
In another block (you can see the Sheldonian in the background) we reach the so-called Bridge of Sighs. Loosely based on the Venice original, it links two parts of Hertford College.
A few steps further brings us to the home of Edmund Halley, the astronomer who discovered Halley’s Comet. His personal observatory is still visible on the roof.
The video ends with a peek at Carfax Tower, the remnant of a 12th c. church. Mechanical guards ring the two bells every quarter hour, followed by the full chorus of bells in the tower. No, it wasn't renamed as part of a marketing campaign for the vehicle report company. Instead, the name derives from the Latin quadrifurcus, which mean crossroads, because the tower marks the center of Oxford where the two main roads, High Street and Saint Aldates, intersect.

Duns Scotus
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written
language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through
audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio
while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using
a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
John Duns, commonly called Duns Scotus (; c. 1266 – 8 November 1308), is generally considered to be one of the three most important philosopher-theologians of the High Middle Ages (together with Thomas Aquinas and William of Ockham). Scotus has had considerable influence on both Catholic and secular thought. The doctrines for which he is best known are the univocity of being, that existence is the most abstract concept we have, applicable to everything that exists; the formal distinction, a way of distinguishing between different aspects of the same thing; and the idea of haecceity, the property supposed to be in each individual thing that makes it an individual. Scotus also developed a complex argument for the existence of God, and argued for the Immaculate Conception of Mary.
Duns Scotus was given the scholastic accolade Doctor Subtilis (Subtle Doctor) for his penetrating and subtle manner of thought. He was beatified by Pope John Paul II in 1993.
