Part II explores the constitution, bishops and archbishops, clergy, and laity. Part III examines doctrine, liturgy, rites of passage, and relations with other faith communities. Part IV deals with the church and culture, education, the Welsh language, and social responsibility. Part V discusses the changing images of the Church and its future. Around themes of continuity and change, the book questions assumptions about the Church, including its distinctive theology and Welshness, ecumenical commitment, approach to innovation, and response to challenges posed by the State and wider world in an increasingly pluralist and secularised Welsh society over the century.
Book Synopsis Mynydd Du and Fforest Fawr The Evolution of an Upland Landscape in South Wales by : David K. Leighton
Download or read book Mynydd Du and Fforest Fawr The Evolution of an Upland Landscape in South Wales written by David K. Leighton and published by RCAHMW. This book was released on 1998-04-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wales is essentially an upland country where mountains and moorlands are the dominant components of the rural scene. The form and character of these landscapes are the consequence of a long history of change. Their distinctiveness is the result of complex interaction between the natural environment and human intervention. Based on the results of an archaeological field survey, this book attempts to unravel the many strands in the evolution of one particular upland area of South Wales, Mynydd Du and Fforest Fawr, part of the Brecon Beacons National Park. The history of human activity in this area can be traced back to the earliest stages of climatic warming after the end of the last Ice Age when Mesolithic hunters followed migrating herds onto the less densely wooded high ground. Seasonal visiting was continued by early farmers until, from the beginning of the Bronze Age, more intensive patterns of land use emerged. After the end of the Roman military presence evidence for mainly seasonal occupation once again becomes widespread, during the Medieval and Post-Medieval periods. This was followed by the intensive exploitation of the area's mineral wealth during the Industrial Revolution and after, giving rise to some of the most dramatic features of the present-day landscape.
Book Synopsis Nineteenth-century Anglican Theological Training by : David A. Dowland

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: David Dowland presents one of the first analytical accounts of Anglican theological training during its formative period, the nineteenth century. Until this time Oxford and Cambridge had been recognized as the most desirable sources of Anglican clergymen, but there was to be an upsurgence oflittle-known colleges attended by lower-middle-class ordinands which cut across the assumption that the training received at the fashionable colleges was superior. Dowland discusses the official attitudes towards the innovation of training large numbers of middle-class and lower-middle-class menfor the ministry in an industrial age where a shift of power to the lower classes was widespread.

Book excerpt: "Founded in 1920, the University College of Swansea was the product of a long and, at times, dramatic struggle. How this movement for what was seen as a technologically-based college intended to meet the limited needs of local industry has resulted in a university college of international standing, embracing a multitude of disciplines, is the essence of this history. It is told within the context of the institution's relationship with the local community as well as its place in the broader field of British university development generally. At the same time, the emphasis is laid not only on the story of the institution, but also on the individuals who have given the University College its lifeblood and character." "Comprehensively illustrated with over 100 black-and-white illustrations, this book will prove fascinating reading for all those who are, or ever have been, involved with the University College of Swansea."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Synopsis Swansea University by : Sam Blaxland
Download or read book Swansea University written by Sam Blaxland and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2020-06 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swansea University: Campus and Community in a Post-War World, 1945–2020 marks Swansea University’s centenary. It is a study of post- Second World War academic and social change in Britain and its universities, as well as an exploration of shifts in youth culture and the way in which higher education institutions have interacted with people and organisations in their regions. It covers a range of important themes and topics, including architectural developments, international scholars, the changing behaviours of students, protest and politics, and the multi-layered relationships that are formed between academics, young people and the wider communities of which they are a part. Unlike most institutional histories, it takes a ‘bottom-up’ approach and focuses on the thoughts, feelings and behaviours of people like students and non-academic staff who are normally sidelined in such accounts. As it does so, it utilises a large collection of oral history testimonies collected specifically for this book; and, throughout, it explores how formative, paradoxical and unexpected university life can be.

Download or read book Life on the Edge written by Geraint Coles and published by Symposia of the Association fo. This book was released on 1998 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout history some areas have been less attractive for living and farming than others. These areas are identified as marginal because of environmental, economic or socio-political factors. How can we recognise marginality in the archaeological record? How particularly can environmental remains be interpreted? And how can we interpret human strategies when faced with a marginal environment? Most of the papers in this volume focus on Scottish contexts, reflecting their origins at the 1992 meeting of the Association for Environmental Archaeology in Edinburgh. However Greek pastoralism and the problems of food supply in the Egyptian and Syrian deserts are also examined.
Download or read book The Greek World written by Anton Powell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2002-09-11 with total page 637 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studying from the Mycenean to the late Hellenistic period, this work includes new articles by twenty-seven specialists of ancient Greece, and presents an examination of the Greek cultures of mainland Greece, Asia Minor, Egypt and Italy. With the chapters sharing the theme of social history, this fascinating book focuses on women, the poor, and the slaves – all traditionally seen as beyond the margins of powerand includes the study of figures who were on the literal margins of the Greek world. Bringing to the forefront the research into areas previously thought of as marginal, Anton Powell sheds new light on vital topics and authors who are central to the study of Greek culture. Plato’s reforms are illuminated through a consideration of his impatient and revolutionary attitude to women, and Powell also examines how the most potent symbol of central Greek history – the Parthenon – can be understood as a political symbol when viewed with the knowledge of the cosmetic techniques used by classical Athenian women. The Greek World is a stimulating and enlightening interaction of social and political history, comprehensive, and unique to boot, students will undoubtedly benefit from the insight and knowledge it imparts.
