General Temenos Academy files

Scope and Content

A series of general files relating to the Temenos Academy, predominantly dating from 1995-2006 and typically including: internal and external memoranda, correspondence and copy letters; flyers, leaflets and printed matter issued by the Temenos Academy and other organisations with which the Academy had links, such as the Nehru Centre; and agendas, minutes and reports.

The material provides a good insight into the way the Academy was run, the individuals involved, the philosophy and agenda of the organisation, its academic and events programme, and its relationships with other organisations such as the Prince's Foundation and the Nehru Centre (the Cultural Wing of the Indian High Commission in London). Lindop's role in the Academy, as editor of the Temenos Academy Review, Chair of the Academic Board, and Raine's successor as Director, is also well documented.

Arrangement

Lindop's own folder divisions are retained here, and the files have been arranged in broadly chronological order.
