Book excerpt: Excerpt from Annals and Stories of Colne: And Neighbourhood This is, I believe, the first published History of Colne, a town on which, considering its antiquity, it has always occurred to me that Whitaker and Baines might, with justice, have said more. Written for the working classes, to the vast majority of whom, if they ever see them, the ponderous History of Whalley and the somewhat costly Baines must be mere works of reference, I have felt it incumbent on me to employ homely language, and in other respects to endeavour to make this a readable book. The scheme of the work is this: It opens with a chapter seeking to show that Colne is a town of Roman origin. Chapters II. And III. Deal with its mediaeval and modern history, and contain a large amount of information, hitherto unpublished. Chapter IV. Relates to the old church, a building on whose history antiquaries rightly love to linger. Chapter V. Is devoted to the Colne incumbents, men who in their time have played an important part in local history. Myself a Churchman, I have not hesitated to point out the faults and frailties of some of them. Chapter VI. Gives the history of some of our best-known buildings, and contains a short account of good Archbishop Tillotson, whose name is inseparably associated with our Grammar School. Chapter VII. Contains the poetry of the neighbourhood. Poetry appeals to some minds with a force and power of which its more sober sister Prose is incapable.

Download or read book The Parson's Daughter of Oxney Colne written by Anthony Trollope and published by Lindhardt og Ringhof. This book was released on 2021-09-06 with total page 38 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This enjoyable short story from Anthony Trollope follows the arrogant Captain John Broughton as he seeks to cement his place as heir to his wealthy aunt Miss Le Smyrger. Set in Devonshire, love and romance are also in the air for Captain Broughton, but will his ego ultimately be his downfall? Anthony Trollope (1815 – 1882) was a Victorian writer and author of 47 novels. He also wrote an autobiography, short stories and plays, travel articles, reviews and lectures. A prolific writer, he made no secret of the fact that money was his motivation for writing – an admission which raised eyebrows among his literary contemporaries at the time. The amount of works Trollope authored are testament to his belief in hard work. His first successful novel was The Warden followed by its sequel, Barchester Towers. The Chronicles of Barsetshire are perhaps his most well-known series of novels, though many of his works have been adapted for TV and radio, starring many familiar faces such as Alan Rickman, David Tennant, Bill Nighy and Tom Hollander. Alongside his literary career, Trollope also worked for some time for the Post Office and is credited with the introduction of the iconic post box to Britain. A memorial to Anthony Trollope was unveiled in Poets’ Corner in Westminster Abbey in 1993.

Book excerpt: Although the displacement of oral forms by written occurred over several centuries in Europe, even late in nineteenth century published tales, sketches, legends, parables, and anecdotes continued to evidence the traces of spoken as opposed to written narrative, the most obvious of these oral residues being the persona of the tale-teller and his or her tendency to use vernacular expressions and a digressive method of recounting the events of the story. Lacking a traditional sense of the art and culture fostered by the aristocratic patron since the Middle Ages, the rising eighteenth-century middle class, buoyed up by capitalism and commerce, required entertainment to fill its leisure hours, but failed to find a satisfactory image of itself in contemporary drama and poetry, and so turned instead to prose fiction.

Download or read book Earls Colne's Early Modern Landscapes written by Dolly MacKinnon and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Essex village of Earls Colne boasts one of the most comprehensive collections of historical documents in Britain, and has been the subject of an intensive and ongoing research project to collate and computerise the surviving records. As such, Earls Colne is undoubtedly one of the most studied parishes in England. Yet whilst much is now known about the village and its inhabitants, little work has been done on the social relationships that bound the community together within its mental and physical landscape. As such, scholars will welcome Dr MacKinnon’s investigation into the social, political and cultural world of early modern England as represented by Earls Colne. The book provides a fresh approach to the study of the landscape of a seventeenth-century village by focussing on the relationships between political power and cultural artefacts. It examines how private, public and communal spaces within society were generated, gendered and governed, and how this was recorded and perpetuated in the records, names, and monuments of the parish and surrounding landscape. Yet whilst the ’elites’ tried to represent a select social landscape through their control of the local records and documents, these attempts were always counterbalanced by the less powerful members of the community who occupied and contested these spaces. By reconstructing the dynamics of Earls Colne through a careful reading and cross-referencing of the surviving documents, buildings and place names, this book offers a fascinating insight into how the sights and sounds of early modern society were imbued with the social relations of parish politics. As well as deepening our understanding of Earls Colne itself, the book offers historians the potential to revisit other local studies from a fresh perspective.
