This studentship builds upon connections between Bluecoat and the Department of History at the University of Liverpool that date back more than a century. Bluecoat - dedicated in 1717 as the Blue Coat Charity School and, transformed in the early 20C as the UK's first arts centre - is one of the few surviving buildings dating to Liverpool's early 18C commercial expansion and reflects the town's growing self-confidence and the civicmindedness of its mercantile elite. The studentship will use the records of the Blue Coat School, the papers of influential donors, and church and Corporation sources to revisit the history of the building in the first half of the 18C and situate it in emergent urban networks of charity, piety and commerce that put politeness to pragmatic ends. This application generally refers to the building as a single word - 'Bluecoat' - usage adopted when the Blue Coat School moved to larger suburban premises in 1906.

该学生奖学金建立在一个多世纪以来的利物浦大学与利物浦大学历史系之间的联系。 Bluecoat - 于1717年作为蓝色外套慈善学校专门，并在20C年代初期作为英国的第一个艺术中心进行了转变 - 是少数可追溯到利物浦早期的18C商业扩张的尚存建筑之一，反映了该镇日益增长的自信，也反映了其商业上的Elite。这些学生将使用蓝色外套学校的记录，有影响力的捐助者的论文以及教堂和公司的资料来重新审视18C上半年建筑物的历史，并将其置于新兴的城市慈善，虔诚和商业网络中，这使礼貌地赋予了务实的目的。该应用程序通常将建筑物称为一个单词 - “蓝oe装饰” - 当蓝色外套学校在1906年移居更大的郊区房屋时采用的用法。
