Our Platform Magazine: A Celebration of History, Culture, and Modern Rural Life
Welcome to our magazine, a glossy weekly on the newsstand that has been captivating readers for over three decades. Established in Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee year, our magazine has a rich history rooted in providing high-quality, diverse content with a focus on primary sources and critical engagement.
Originally founded as Adam Matthew, the company has evolved from providing physical microfilm collections to pioneering digital archives for primary historical sources. Today, we continue to digitally reimagine primary source access, combining authoritative content with innovative technology to fuel critical thinking and historical scholarship.
Our magazine is dedicated to publishing and delivering primary sources that enable academic research and teaching. We emphasize access to historically significant materials, empowering users to critically analyse, debate, and engage with original documents and collections. Our unique features include a high-quality content platform specifically built to highlight and facilitate interaction with unique digital assets, expanding accessibility to archives, and supporting a multidisciplinary approach by integrating various types of primary sources across fields and formats.
In this issue, we delve into various topics that reflect our magazine's mission. Kate Green lauds Leicestershire farmer Robert Bakewell's lasting influence on livestock breeding. Russell Higham reveals how Guernsey inspired Victor Hugo and Renoir, while Hetty Lintell highlights juicy pink picks creating a raspberry ripple in the accessories world.
We also celebrate modern rural life, with Charles Harris recalling the remarkable characters who led the campaign in the Far East on the 80th anniversary of victory in Japan. William Aslet explores the history of The King's Observatory at Kew in London, and Tim Robinson chooses a work that explores the tyranny of power.
Join us as we commemorate the 80th-anniversary Liberation Day celebrations with Adam Hay-Nicholls, applaud the remarkable rescue and restoration of the historic 35-acre gardens at Ballynure House in Co Wicklow with Jane Powers, and follow the trail of the 12 stone crosses built by Edward I as a monument to his Queen Consort with Alice Loxton.
For those with an interest in property, gardening, arts, and interior design, our magazine features witty and informative content. Mark Cocker hones his senses to take in the magnificent sight and sound of a buzzard in flight, as the great white bird, a symbol of rebirth, is experiencing a renaissance in Britain. Holly Kirkwood shares the top properties for sale.
Our magazine is a unique treasure trove of information, accessible only through our digital platform. It's the only magazine that has been guest-edited by His Majesty The King twice, and it still cannot be found in print or online anywhere else. We invite you to explore our digital pages and immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of history, culture, and modern rural life that our magazine offers.
