Book Synopsis Metrical Psalmody in Print and Practice by : Dr Timothy Duguid
Download or read book Metrical Psalmody in Print and Practice written by Dr Timothy Duguid and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2014-07-28 with total page 329 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the Reformation, the Book of Psalms became one of the most well-known books of the Bible. This was particularly true in Britain, where people of all ages, social classes and educational abilities memorized and sang poetic versifications of the psalms. Those written by Thomas Sternhold and John Hopkins became the most popular, and the simple tunes developed and used by English and Scottish churches to accompany these texts were carried by soldiers, sailors and colonists throughout the English-speaking world. Among these tunes were a number that are still used today, including ‘Old Hundredth’, ‘Martyrs’, and ‘French’. This book is the first to consider both English and Scottish metrical psalmody, comparing the two traditions in print and practice. It combines theological literary and musical analysis to reveal new and ground-breaking connections between the psalm texts and their tunes, which it traces in the English and Scottish psalters printed through 1640. Using this new analysis in combination with a more thorough evaluation of extant church records, Duguid contends that Britain developed and maintained two distinct psalm cultures, one in England and the other in Scotland.
Book Synopsis The Reformation in Rhyme by : Beth Quitslund
Download or read book The Reformation in Rhyme written by Beth Quitslund and published by Ashgate Publishing, Ltd.. This book was released on 2008 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Whole Booke of Psalmes was one of the most published and widely read books of early modern England, running to over 800 editions between the 1570s and the early eighteenth century. It offered all of the Psalms paraphrased in verse with appropriate tunes, together with an assortment of other scriptural and non-scriptual hymns, and was rapidly (if unofficially) adopted by the established English Church. Yet, despite the significant impact of the Whole Booke of Psalmes upon English culture and literature, this is the first book-length study of it, and the first sustained critical examination of the texts of which it comprises. By tracing the ways in which historical contingency, religious fervor and the print marketplace together created and were changed by one of the most successful books of English verse ever printed, this study opens a new window through which to view the intellectual and ecclesiastical culture of Tudor England.

Download or read book How to Pray written by Pete Greig and published by NavPress. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pete Greig is a worldwide authority and the face of a generation when it comes to prayer. One of the founders of the 24-7 prayer movement, he has seen, experienced, and chronicled amazing works of God in the world. While you might imagine him to be puffed up, Pete Greig is entirely the opposite. He is enchanting, down-to-earth, friendly, and most of all, very normal–and yet he tells preposterous tales about prayer (and they’re true). He is basically a regular dude who loves to talk with God. How to Pray is written to evoke a passion for prayer in everyone—the committed follower of Jesus as well as the skeptic and the scared. The enormous blessing of How to Pray is that it is accessible, full of surprising stories of answered prayer, and tremendously engaging. The basic idea is that prayer is a conversation between you and God. Pete Greig demystifies and reenchants prayer, helping you to find prayer achievable and enjoyable, and ultimately life-giving and life-changing. How to Pray is designed to be used together with The Prayer Course (a free video curriculum associated with the Alpha course), making it useful for personal and group or church-wide reading.

Book Synopsis Psalms for the Common Era : Complete Psalter Anglican Edition by : Adam Carlill
Download or read book Psalms for the Common Era : Complete Psalter Anglican Edition written by Adam Carlill and published by . This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If the Psalms really are -as we often say - the primary hymnbook of the Church, as they were the primary hymnbook of Jesus, it seems pretty important that we have ways of singing them that involve congregations singing them in ways they can feel at home with. Adam's fresh and lively versions provide just that opportunity, and I hope many churches will want to take advantage of them and spread the word about their availability." Rowan WilliamsEver wanted to sing the psalms but not able to cope with Anglican chant, plain chant or responsorial chant? Here is the answer: an unabridged, faithful rendition of the entire Hebrew Psalter in accessible metrical English.Following the successful publication of Psalms for the Common Era : Complete Psalter Anglican Edition, and in response to clear demand this large print edition provides the same content and the same page numbers so that it can be used in tandem with the standard format edition.The intention of this translation of the psalms is to encourage more people to sing more psalms more often. By choosing hymn tunes from widely-used hymn books, this translation increases the likelihood that some people will sing psalms who otherwise would miss out. Most psalms were meant to be sung and there are several tunes mentioned in the ancient Hebrew titles. These suggest that the tunes existed independently of the psalms, as they do here. The choice of tune for the psalms takes into consideration primarily the structure and metre of the Hebrew psalm, but also the mood and theme. This psalter is unabridged. As such it is intended as a metrical equivalent of the 'Parish Psalter' (Nicholson; The Faith Press: Leighton Buzzard, 1932) and its successors. There are no conflations. Every verse has been rendered so that the richness of the psalter may be experienced in its fulness.Adam Carlill was brought up with one foot in the Methodist Church and the other in the Church of England. He joined the local choir aged eight, and hated singing psalms at Matins and Evensong. However, hatred gradually turned to love. He received his BA in theology at Keble College, Oxford in 1987, before spending a year as the Dean's volunteer at St George's Anglican Cathedral in Jerusalem. He trained for Anglican ministry at Lincoln Theological College and was made deacon in 1990, serving in St Edward's Romford and being ordained priest in 1991. After a second curacy in Uckfield (East Sussex), Adam became Vicar of St George's Tilehurst (Berkshire) in 1998 where he has been serving ever since, becoming Vicar of the neighbouring parish of St Mary Magdalen's Tilehurst a few years later.Adam received his DPhil in Old Testament Theology in 2013 at St Peter's Hall, Oxford, under the supervision of Prof. John Day, subsequently becoming a member of the Society for Old Testament Study. His thesis, 'Cherubim and Seraphim in the Old Testament', was summarised in an article in the Journal for the Study of the Christian Church.For years Adam felt frustrated at not being able to use the psalms in worship more widely, so, in 2015, he decided to do something about it, systematically working through the Hebrew psalter, translating each one into modern metrical English. Three drafts later, and with the help of numerous colleagues with Hebrew and mucial interest, this volume is now offered to congregations, individuals and choirs to use as they see best.The addition of metrical versions of the Christian canticles contained in the Book of Common Prayer in this volume make it ideal for Anglican congregations who wish to maintain the centuries-old practice of daily sung worship, twice a day throughout the year.
