Note:
The Ramsay Murray lecture is an annual event organised by Selwyn College following a bequest from
the late Lt Col Ramsay Murray, a loyal alumnus of the College, who was resident at Selwyn during
the 1930s. Since the series began in 1994 we have attracted a number of well-known academics to
speak at this event, such as Sir Michael Howard, Sir Keith Thomas, Professor Roy Porter, Professor
Ian Clark, Professor Lawrence Freedman, Dr Onora ONeill, Professor Niall Ferguson, Professor Ian
Kershaw, Professor David Cannadine, Professor Jonathan Riley-Smith and last year Professor Quentin
Skinner, formerly Regius Professor of Modern History
