Book excerpt: Excerpt from Legends of the Saxon Saints Many years ago a friend remarked to me on the strangeness of the circumstance that the greatest event in the history of a nation, its conversion to Christianity, largely as it is often recorded in national legends, has never been selected as a theme for poetry. That event may indeed not supply the materials necessary for an Epic or a Drama, yet it can hardly fail to abound in details significant and pathetic, which especially invite poetic illustration. With the primary interest of that great crisis, many others, philosophical, social, and political, generally connect themselves. Antecedent to a nation's conversion, the events of centuries have commonly either conduced to it, or thrown obstacles in its way; while the history as well as the character of that nation in the.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Garner of Saints: Being a Collection of the Legends and Emblems Usually Represented in Art When the story they represent is made known. Of the legends themselves, they belong to many periods, but taken as a whole they may be said to represent the ideas and aspirations of mediaeval Christianity. When the vast majority of men could neither read nor write, the churches they frequented contained in their storied walls and windows the body of their religious teaching in perhaps its most vivid form. This is an oft-treated subject and one into which it is unnecessary to enter here. If this volume serves to create new interest in the minds of those devoted to art, it will have fully answered its purpose.

This book was released on 2018-08-02 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives and Legends of the Evangelists, Apostles, and Other Early Saints Full of interest, too, is the way in which certain legends have been restored to their rightful owners, after having been filched from them and given to other Saints by devotees more eager to glorify the memory of their own favourite patrons than to adhere strictly to the truth. As one instance amongst many may be quoted the quaint story of the resuscitation of a man who had been hanged, in which a cock and hen play a curious part, generally related in connection with St. James the Elder, but really originally told of St. Dominick de la Calzada, who lived many centuries later than the Apostle, and made, or mended, the road used by pilgrims to the shrine of St. James of Compostella, a fact which may perhaps account for the confusion which has sometimes arisen between him and the patron Saint of Spain. Amongst the Saints noticed in the present volume will be found some few whose names are scarcely known in England, yet whose claims to recognition are undoubted on account not only of their sanctity, but because they have all their distinc tive emblems, and are occasionally introduced in Church decora tion and other works of sacred art.

This book was released on 2017-12 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lives and Legends of the English Bishops and Kings, Mediaeval Monks, and Other Later Saints A very noteworthy feature of the first half of the period treated in this, the third and last volume of 'the Saints in Christian Art, ' is the great number of anglo-saxons who have been admitted to the hierarchy of the saints. To this fact due prominence has been given, although, unfortunately, there exist but few works of art in which they are introduced, the result, of course, to a great extent, of the ruthless destruction after the Reformation of all that could recall the memory of the men who had upheld the rights of the Church, but still more to there having been no national school of religious art in England, such as was so long the glory of Italy, and in a minor degree of Germany and of the Netherlands. Beginning with the first Bishops of Canterbury, the narrative in the present volume passes on to tell of the great work, in the North of England, of Saints Paulinus and Aidan, aided by their royal converts Saints Edwin and Oswald, and of their successors.
