Proceedings Of The British Academy
The ''Proceedings of the British Academy'' is a series of academic volumes on subjects in the humanities and social sciences. The first volume was published in 1905. Up to 1991, the volumes (appearing annually from 1927) mostly consisted of the texts of lectures and other papers read at the academy, plus obituary notices or "memoirs" of Fellows of the British Academy. From 1992 the ''Proceedings'' became an irregular series through the addition of thematic volumes of papers, typically derived from academic conferences held at the academy. After 2011–2012, the publication of the texts of lectures was transferred to the new online open access '' Journal of the British Academy'', and the publication of obituary notices was transferred to a separate ''Biographical Memoirs of Fellows of the British Academy'' series. The ''Proceedings of the British Academy'' series therefore now focuses on the publication of themed volumes of essays, and is open to proposals from prospective volume edi ...

Wyggeston Grammar School for Boys was a grammar school in Leicester, England, in existence from 1876 to 1976. It was succeeded by the present-day Wyggeston and Queen Elizabeth I College. History After William Wyggeston's death in 1536, his brother Thomas Wyggeston, as a trustee, used part of the money to establish a school for boys known as the Elizabethan Grammar School. This eventually became defunct in the 19th century, but was re-founded on the site of the old Wyggeston Hospital as the Wyggeston Hospital School, which took its first pupils on 30 April 1877. This school passed its name to the later Wyggeston Grammar School for Boys. In 1927, new buildings were built, designed by James Miller. In 1970/1971, the school won the national ''Top of the Form'' radio quiz show, beating Harris Academy, Dundee, in the final on 2 January 1971.
