Download or read book Yvain written by Chretien de Troyes and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 1987-09-10 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twelfth-century French poet Chrétien de Troyes is a major figure in European literature. His courtly romances fathered the Arthurian tradition and influenced countless other poets in England as well as on the continent. Yet because of the difficulty of capturing his swift-moving style in translation, English-speaking audiences are largely unfamiliar with the pleasures of reading his poems. Now, for the first time, an experienced translator of medieval verse who is himself a poet provides a translation of Chrétien’s major poem, Yvain, in verse that fully and satisfyingly captures the movement, the sense, and the spirit of the Old French original. Yvain is a courtly romance with a moral tenor; it is ironic and sometimes bawdy; the poetry is crisp and vivid. In addition, the psychological and the socio-historical perceptions of the poem are of profound literary and historical importance, for it evokes the emotions and the values of a flourishing, vibrant medieval past.

Book Synopsis Scotland in the Age of Two Revolutions by : Sharon Adams
Download or read book Scotland in the Age of Two Revolutions written by Sharon Adams and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2014 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventeenth century was one of the most dramatic periods in Scotland's history, with two political revolutions, intense religious strife culminating in the beginnings of toleration, and the modernisation of the state and its infrastructure. This book focuses on the history that the Scots themselves made. Previous conceptualisations of Scotland's "seventeenth century" have tended to define it as falling between 1603 and 1707 - the union of crowns and the union of parliaments. In contrast, this book asks how seventeenth-century Scotland would look if we focused on things that the Scots themselves wanted and chose to do. Here the key organising dates are not 1603 and 1707 but 1638 and 1689: the covenanting revolution and the Glorious Revolution. Within that framework, the book develops several core themes. One is regional and local: the book looks at the Highlands and the Anglo-Scottish Borders. The increasing importance of money in politics and the growing commercialisation of Scottish society is a further theme addressed. Chapters on this theme, like those on the nature of the Scottish Revolution, also discuss central government and illustrate the growth of the state. A third theme is political thought and the world of ideas. The intellectual landscape of seventeenth-century Scotland has often been perceived as less important and less innovative, and such perceptions are explored and in some cases challenged in this volume. Two stories have tended to dominate the historiography of seventeenth-century Scotland: Anglo-Scottish relations and religious politics. One of the recent leitmotifs of early modern British history has been the stress on the "Britishness" of that history and the interaction between the three kingdoms which constituted the "Atlantic archipelago". The two revolutions at the heart of the book were definitely Scottish, even though they were affected by events elsewhere. This is Scottish history, but Scottish history which recognises and is informed by a British context where appropriate. The interconnected nature of religion and politics is reflected in almost every contribution to this volume.SHARON ADAMS is Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Freiburg.

Book Synopsis Rethinking the Scottish Revolution by : Laura A. M. Stewart
Download or read book Rethinking the Scottish Revolution written by Laura A. M. Stewart and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The English revolution is one of the most intensely-debated events in history; parallel events in Scotland have never attracted the same degree of interest. Rethinking the Scottish Revolution argues for a new interpretation of the seventeenth-century Scottish revolution that goes beyond questions about its radicalism, and reconsiders its place within an overarching 'British' narrative. Laura Stewart analyses how interactions between print and manuscript polemic, crowds, and political performances enabled protestors against a Prayer Book to destroy Charles I's Scottish government. Particular attention is given to the way in which debate in Scotland was affected by the emergence of London as a major publishing centre. The subscription of the 1638 National Covenant occurred within this context and further politicized subordinate social groups that included women. Unlike in England, however, public debate was contained. A remodelled constitution revivified the institutions of civil and ecclesiastical governance, enabling Covenanted Scotland to pursue interventionist policies in Ireland and England - albeit at terrible cost to the Scottish people. War transformed the nature of state power in Scotland, but this achievement was contentious and fragile. A key weakness lay in the separation of ecclesiastical and civil authority, which justified for some a strictly conditional understanding of obedience to temporal authority. Rethinking the Scottish Revolution explores challenges to legitimacy of the Covenanted constitution, but qualifies the idea that Scotland was set on a course to destruction as a result. Covenanted government was overthrown by the new model army in 1651, but its ideals persisted. In Scotland as well as England, the language of liberty, true religion, and the public interest had justified resistance to Charles I. The Scottish revolution embedded a distinctive and durable political culture that ultimately proved resistant to assimilation into the nascent British state.

Book Synopsis Patrick's Places by : Patrick Hamilton
Download or read book Patrick's Places written by Patrick Hamilton and published by . This book was released on 2019-01-09 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Patrick Hamilton was a Scottish Reformer who, at the age of 23, was the first martyr of the Reformation in Scotland. While studying in Germany, Patrick was influenced by the teachings of Martin Luther and Philip Melanchthon, particularly Luther's "Freedom of a Christian Man" and Melanchthon's "Loci Communes" or "Common Places in Theology." Under the tutelage of Francis Lambert at the University of Marburg, Patrick authored a treatise for discussion and disputation which he named after Melanchthon's "Common Places." Hamilton's good friend John Frith translated Patrick's work from the Latin and named it "Patrick's Places." In this little treatise, Master Patrick profoundly elucidates the distinction between the Law and the Gospel, faith and works by way of eighteen propositions proven via deductive reasoning. This work is taken from volume eight of John Foxe's "Acts and Monuments," better known as "The Book of Martyrs." Foxe adds an introduction and a very valuable commentary on "Patrick's Places." A brief biography of Patrick Hamilton by Lutheran Pastor Jordan McKinley is also included. McKinley, a Scotsman, regards Patrick Hamilton as one of his "fathers in the faith." Every Christian will gain great benefit by reading and meditating upon "Patrick's Places."

Download or read book Montrose written by Edward J. Cowan and published by Canongate Books. This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first modern biography of James Graham, Marquis of Montrose. One of the most famous and dashing figures in Scottish history, his heroic struggle in the face of hopeless odds still excites the imagination. For three years Montrose was in the vanguard of the fight against Catholicism and Stuart despotism. Yet during this time, extremists among the Covenanters became ever more influential and Montrose, sickened by their excesses, defected to the king. Under Charles I he enjoyed his 'glorious year' of dazzling victories, routing the rebels in a series of battles. But his dramatic success was shortlived, and in quick succession he was defeated, exiled and finally betrayed. Montrose was hanged in 1650, yet his legendary victories remain to this day one of the most astonishing military episodes in British history.
