This book was released on 2015-07-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Monumental and Other Inscriptions in Halifax Parish Church An attempt has been made in the following pages to give a copy of all the Inscriptions on the Monuments and Grave Covers which are now to be seen inside the church; and also of all Inscriptions of both classes, of which there is any record in printed books, or in the manuscripts of private individuals. Many inscriptions on grave covers, which are now either covered by pews or are lost, have been preserved to us by two industrious Halifax antiquaries, Messrs. E. J. Walker and S. T. Rigge, F. S. A. Apparently, Mr. Walker began to make his copies in the third quarter of the nineteenth century, for on folio 7 of his MS., which has been generously placed at my disposal by Mr. William Farrer, F. S. A., in reference to the inscriptions in the Holdsworth Chapel, occurs the following note: "Upon the floor of the chapel - some of these were taken by my son, C. J. W., when the chapel was cleaned; the bulk by myself in June, 1865, when the old unsightly pews adjoining the screen were all pulled away and the whole floor levelled, hot water pipes put in, and the entire chapel filled with open stalls. - E. J. W." There appears to be no other indication in the MS. as to when these copies of the inscriptions were taken. This MS. passed into the hands of the late John Stansfeld, of Leeds, and bears his autograph signature and the date 3. Perhaps more accurate copies of the inscriptions are those made by Mr. Rigge, which have been kindly lent to me by Mr. J. W. Clay, F. S. A., who also sent me copies of most of the monumental inscriptions which were taken by him and Mr. Lister a good many years ago, with a view to their publication in the Yorkshire ArcheBological Journal, in a similar way to what was done in regard to those in Elland Church. The task, however, was never completed. The editor has personally checked or copied every inscription now visible in the church, all of which are included in this work.

Download or read book Medieval Manuscripts in Post-Medieval England written by Andrew G. Watson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-07-07 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Two themes uniting the essays in this collection are the provenance and history of medieval manuscripts during the Middle Ages, and the fates that befell them in England in the period after the invention of printing and the 16th-century dissolution of the religious houses and visitations of the universities. The section 'Libraries and collectors' includes papers on seven major English collectors of the 16th and 17th centuries, and the section 'Manuscripts' concerns the fates of five manuscripts or groups of manuscripts from England, Belgium and Italy. Of the other chapters one is concerned with the post-medieval history of the library of All Souls College, Oxford, and another with the provenance of hundreds of manuscripts in the Harleian collection in the British Library. For this volume Andrew Watson has provided extensive additional notes and indexes.

Book Synopsis Memorializing the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902 by : Valerie B. Parkhouse
Download or read book Memorializing the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902 written by Valerie B. Parkhouse and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2015-01-28 with total page 792 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memorializing the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902 is a study of a group of memorials to soldiers who fought in a now nearly forgotten war, and deals with the many factors influencing why there was such an unprecedented number of memorials compared to those to previous conflicts like the Crimean War, fifty years earlier. One of the most important issues was the impact of changes in the organization of the British Army in the late 1800s, particularly the creation of locally-based regiments, heavily manned by volunteers drawn from local communities. The book includes a detailed commentary on the social conditions in England that also account for the unprecedented number of commemorations of this conflict. It discusses the variety of forms memorials took: informal – drinking fountains, ‘Spion Kop” stands at football stadiums; formal – stained glass windows, statues, etc., and the numerous and diverse places where they were located: cathedrals, town squares, public schools and universities. The growth of the national press and the rise of literacy is dealt with in detail, as well as the telegraph, whose invention meant that news became available overnight. Space is given to discuss the expression of Victorian prosperity in public works. The part played by the established church is well documented and an insight is given into the contribution of Imperialism, patriotism and jingoism. All these factors explain the motivation for the memorials’ creation. The book is illustrated with photographs and articles from newspapers of the day. Appendices cover those who are not commemorated, lost memorials, those who unveiled the memorials, colonial involvement and more. Memorializing the Anglo-Boer War of 1899-1902 will appeal particularly to social historians and students of military and social history.
Download or read book Sir Thomas Browne written by Reid Barbour and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Thomas Browne: A Life is the first full-scale biography of the extraordinary prose artist, physician, and polymath. With the help of recent archival discoveries, the biography recasts each phase of Browne's life (1605-82) and situates his incomparable writings within the diverse intellectual and social contexts in which he lived, including London, Winchester, Oxford, Montpellier, Padua, Leiden, Halifax, and Norwich. The book makes the case that, as his contemporaries fervently believed, Browne influenced the intellectual and religious direction of seventeenth-century England in singularly rich and dynamic ways. Special attention is paid in the biography to Browne's medical vocation but also to his place within the scientific revolution. New information is offered regarding his childhood in London, his European travels and medical studies, the setting in which he first wrote Religio Medici, his impact on readers during the English civil wars, and the contemporary view of his medical practice. Overall, the image of Browne that emerges is far bolder and more cosmopolitan, less complacent and provincial, than biographers have assumed ever since Samuel Johnson doubted Browne's claim that his life up to age thirty resembled a romantic fiction filled with miracles and fables. The biography has extensive material for anyone interested in the histories of religion, education, science and medicine, seventeenth-century England, and early modern philosophy and literature.
