From Florentine painter Plautilla Nelli to the rise of Chat GPT and the reality of the mind, the 2023 edition of Camden covers as broad a range of topics and ideas as ever.

There is also a particular focus towards America, with articles on 2024 US presidential election field, capital punishment, US tipping culture, and checks and balances in the nation’s democratic institutions, as well as a reflection on Westminster School’s 1950s CCF, written by OW Raymond Bell, who became a Brigadier-General in the US military.

With pupil writers from Lower Shell, aged 15 to Remove, aged 18, and Westminsters who left the school in the 1950s and 60s, the breadth of experience and experiences comes across in each essay.
