Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Antiquities of the Cathedral Churches of Great Britain, Vol. 3 of 4: Illustrated With a Series of Highly-Finished Engravings, Exhibiting General and Particular Views, Ground Plans, and All the Architectural Features and Ornaments in the Various Styles of Building in Our Ecclesiastical Edifices All the records of the original foundation of Carlisle, and the introduction of Christianity here, have perished in the lapse of ages. It has been a border habitation from time immemorial. In so fine a situation, at the confluence of three rivers, and the grand estuary of the Frith, it was probably a place of some strength and distinction before the Roman invasion; hence it must have had a name long prior to the building of Severus's wall, or the vallum of Hadrian. In the Chronicle it is stated that this city was built by a British prince called Luell, or Lu-all, and as the Romans afterwards made it a place of residence, there can be no doubt that it received a knowledge of the Christian faith about the same period, and in a similar manner to that of other cities occupied by those conquerors. Its situation, however, on the departure of the Romans, rendered it the first victim of the northern marauders; and it had been desolated many years when Egfrid, king of Northumberland, caused it to be rebuilt, and fortified with a wall. It appears, from Simeon Dunelm, that he repaired the church, restored divine worship, and placed in it a college of secular priests. When visited by the famous St. Cuthbert, according to Bede, the citizens carried this prelate to see the walls of their city, and a well of admirable workmanship, built by the Romans.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Antiquities of the Cathedral Churches of Great Britain, Vol. 4 of 4: Illustrated With a Series of Highly-Finished Engravings, Exhibiting General and Particular Views, Ground Plans, and All the Architectural Features and Ornaments in the Various Styles of Building Used in Our Ecclesiastical Edifices It isnot recorded that this church was often repaired, although it was repeatedly desolated by domestic as well as foreign soldiers. In 67 6 it was plundered by fethelred, king of Mercia; by the Danes in 839; and unsuccessfully besieged by them in 885: in 986 it was attacked by king Ethelred in revenge at the bishop; and in 998 it was again pillaged by the Danes; so that at the time of the Norman invasion, the church, according to our historians, was in such a stateof poverty that divine worship was entirely neglected in it. The cathedral and priory, indeed, were marked objects of spoliation on every occasion bishop Putta was driven from his see by the Mercians and hecame bishop of Hereford. His successor also abandoned his charge; but, whatever injury the building may have sustained, we have no account of its being rebuilt, only some slight repairs and additiohs were made, as by bishop Tobias 1, who built St. Paul's porch to the church of St. Andrew, for the place of his interment. During the prelacy of Bardulph, the cathedral establishment somewhat recovered its losses, and it received from kings Od'a and Sigered grants of Frindsbury, Wickham, and Bromley. The record of these donations, however, is extremely confused. Bishop Swithulf was appointed one of the guardians of the realm, and bravely discharged the duties of this important office, by compelling the Danes, who then infested the coast, to raise the siege of Rochester.

Book Synopsis Historic Real Estate by : Whitney Martinko
Download or read book Historic Real Estate written by Whitney Martinko and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2020-05-15 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A detailed study of early historical preservation efforts between the 1780s and the 1850s In Historic Real Estate, Whitney Martinko shows how Americans in the fledgling United States pointed to evidence of the past in the world around them and debated whether, and how, to preserve historic structures as permanent features of the new nation's landscape. From Indigenous mounds in the Ohio Valley to Independence Hall in Philadelphia; from Benjamin Franklin's childhood home in Boston to St. Philip's Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina; from Dutch colonial manors of the Hudson Valley to Henry Clay's Kentucky estate, early advocates of preservation strove not only to place boundaries on competitive real estate markets but also to determine what should not be for sale, how consumers should behave, and how certain types of labor should be valued. Before historic preservation existed as we know it today, many Americans articulated eclectic and sometimes contradictory definitions of architectural preservation to work out practical strategies for defining the relationship between public good and private profit. In arguing for the preservation of houses of worship and Indigenous earthworks, for example, some invoked the "public interest" of their stewards to strengthen corporate control of these collective spaces. Meanwhile, businessmen and political partisans adopted preservation of commercial sites to create opportunities for, and limits on, individual profit in a growing marketplace of goods. And owners of old houses and ancestral estates developed methods of preservation to reconcile competing demands for the seclusion of, and access to, American homes to shape the ways that capitalism affected family economies. In these ways, individuals harnessed preservation to garner political, economic, and social profit from the performance of public service. Ultimately, Martinko argues, by portraying the problems of the real estate market as social rather than economic, advocates of preservation affirmed a capitalist system of land development by promising to make it moral.

This book was released on 2017-02-28 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Montague Rhodes James authored some of the most highly regarded ghost stories of all time—classics such as “Oh, Whistle, and I’ll Come to You, My Lad” that have been adapted many times over for radio and television and have never gone out of print. But while James is best known as a fiction writer and storyteller, he was also a provost of King’s College, Cambridge, and Eton College, and a legendary and influential scholar whose pioneering work in the study of biblical texts and medieval manuscripts, art, and architecture is still relevant today. In Medieval Studies and the Ghost Stories of M. R. James, Patrick J. Murphy argues that these twin careers are inextricably linked. James’s research not only informed his fiction but also reflected his anxieties about the nature of academic life and explored the delicate divide between professional, university men and erratic hobbyists or antiquaries. Murphy shows how detailed attention to the scholarly inspirations behind James’s fiction provides considerable insight into a formative moment in medieval studies, as well as into James’s methods as a master stylist of understated horror. During his life, James often claimed that his stories were mere entertainments—pleasing distractions from a life largely defined by academic discipline and restraint—and readers over the years have been content to take him at his word. This intriguing volume, however, convincingly proves otherwise.
