Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new publication, illustrated with specially commissioned photography, draws on archaeology, archives and imagery to illuminate the fascinating history of Exeter Cathedral. Nine hundred years ago, foundations were dug for a great church in Exeter which would develop into the beautiful cathedral that still marks the heart of the city. It is distinctive among English cathedrals for its twin transept towers, and unbroken vault stretching from the entrance to the high altar, and the sheer profusion of carving of plants and animals throughout. Exeter is a heavenly garden in stone, and this new book, illustrated with specially commissioned photography, draws on archaeology, archives and imagery to explain what its builders in a surprisingly cosmopolitan city were trying to tell us about their understanding of the world, and the realm they envisioned beyond us.

Download or read book Tiggs and the Midnight Choir written by Julie Claire-Carney and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-27 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Tiggs and The Midnight Choir' is contemporary ghost story. Although aimed at 8-12-year olds, this middle grade fiction is a good read for both young and old... a comedy suspense in which a mythical creature, a young boy and ancient choir prove that modern and medieval mischief can be just as much fun. The book features James, aged 9. James is poor, with nothing except a good heart, bags of enthusiasm and a singing voice that earns him a place as a Cathedral Chorister. James loves his new boarding school life but, while exploring a secret passage leading to the Cathedral, he stumbles upon a ghostly Midnight Choir, unearths a sinister plot to threaten the Cathedral's concerts and befriends the Guardian of the Cathedral, a magnificent but mischievous Griffin called Tiggs. Together, they must resolve a mystery that could damage not only the Midnight Choir but the Cathedral itself.... Right, that was the blurb! So, apart from the fun and thrills, what's so special about our book that would make you want to buy it? Well, we've mixed fiction, reality and history into a really exciting adventure. The place where it all happens is real... you can visit Exeter Cathedral and even see the hatch where the secret passage lies... and imagine climbing through to join the ghostly Midnight Choir. Even the graffiti on the effigy of Bishop Stafford is real... all we've done is to create names for the initials etched into the poor old Bishop, which date back hundreds of years. Historical dates are true too - like the bombing of Exeter Cathedral in World War II. But most of all, our 'unlikely hero' is real. James really did gain a Choristership to this amazing boarding school... and it really is another world. He loved it so much that he even illustrated our book with over 140 of his own quirky drawings. OK, so the mythical Griffin, the 'sinister plot' and the Midnight Choir are imaginative add-ons, but to a life that really exists. The dusky smells, haunting sounds and chill air of the ancient Cathedral are part of everyday life for the Choristers. They gave rise to a sense of imagination and adventure in us... and we hope that they will for everyone who reads our book. This is a good all-year-round book with a Christmassy ending that makes it a perfect gift. What makes it even more special is that 50% of the profits are going to Exeter Cathedral and Exeter Cathedral School, enabling them to offer other children the exciting life that they've given to James. With warm wishes from us both, Julie and James

Download or read book The History of England's Cathedrals written by Nicholas Orme and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-01 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first history of all the English cathedrals, from Birmingham and Bury St Edmunds to Worcester and York Minster England's sixty-two Anglican and Catholic cathedrals are some of our most iconic buildings, attracting millions of worshippers and visitors every year. Yet although much has been written about their architecture, there is no complete history of their life and activities. This is the first such book to provide one, stretching from Roman times to the present day. The History of England's Cathedrals explains where and why they were founded, who staffed them, and how their structures evolved. It describes their worship and how this changed over the centuries, their schools and libraries, and their links with the outside world. The history of these astonishing buildings is the history of England. Reading this book will bring you face to face with the Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Normans, Reformation, Civil War, Victorian England, World War Two, and finally modern democracy.
