Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Feodary Of Glastonbury Abbey With the issue in this volume of the Feodary the Society has returned to the attack on the documentary history of Glaston bury Abbey. In this case the history is not that of a religious foundation, but rather of a great feudal landowner, whose rights and liabilities were very closely connected. Previous efforts include the printing of the Inquisition of Abbot Henry de Sully drawn up in 1189; and of the Rentalia of Abbots Ambresbury and Ford, dated 1235 - 1261, which formed Volume V of the Society's works. To this is now added a Feodary of the succeeding century. For permission to print this valuable document the Society is greatly indebted to the Curators of the Bodleian Library, and for the labour of editing to the Rev. F. W. Weaver and to Canon Mayo, of Long Burton, Dorset, who has contributed the Introduction. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Chapters on the Early History of Glastonbury Abbey In making a short contribution to the early history of Glastonbury Abbey I feel that I need offer no apology, as the old Tor itself, although 20 or 25 miles distant as the crow flies, is visible from my windows, and invites the attempt. More often than not it is draped in the mists that sweep up the Severn Sea from the north-west and lies half hid in the mirage of the moorlands. To write about the birth of Grlastonbury is to write about a creation that has sprung from the sea, that has grown up silently in the weird marshes and meres of the "sea-moor-saetas," and that loves to entangle itself in the magic mists of antiquity. Must we always adhere to the litera scripta in speaking of Glastonbury? It is the land of legend, romantic figures, and shadowy heroes, and there is sometimes more substance to be found in these, especially when place-names, topography, dedications, and the consentanea vox of antiquity confirm them, than in the litera scripta of the monastic scriptorium, where the greatest efforts of the Benedictine pens were directed to invent, to simulate, and to forge, so that the detective genius of a Stubbs can hardly winnow the true record from the false.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Abbot of Glastonbury and His Companions: An Historical Sketch The history 'of Glastonbury is the history of its abbey without its abbey Glastonbury were nothing.1 Even among those great ecclesias tical institutions, the Benedictine abbeys of medieval England, the history of Glastonbury has a Character all its own. I will not insult its venerable age, says a recent historian, by so much as contrasting it with the foundations of yesterday which arose under the influence of the Cistercian movement, for they play but a small part indeed in the history of this church and realm. Glastonbury is something more than N etley and Tintern, Rievaux and F oun tains. It is something more again than the Benedictine houses which arose at the bidding of the Norman Conqueror, of his race and of his companions; more than Selby and Battle.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Recent Discoveries at Glastonbury Abbey: An Account of the Excavations Undertaken by Mr. F. Bligh Bond, With His Notes Upon the Discoveries; Together With a Short History of the Abbey This Booklet is intended to present a narrative, as complete as possible up to the date of issue, of the result of the researches within the Abbey enclosure made by Mr. Bligh Bond, who in 1908 commenced the work of exploration, under the auspices of the Somerset Archaeological Society. The reason for it being undertaken was the considerable confusion of ideas as to the exact plan of the Abbey in its missing parts, such plans as had been published being of a contradictory nature. Therefore, the details of the remarkable discoveries that have been made, and the description of the remains, are of the greatest interest and value, both to the student and the casual visitor to the Abbey. The various reports concerning the discoveries that have appeared from time to time have been incorporated into the booklet and, for the benefit of the uninitiated, headed with a brief sketch of the Abbey history. G.E.M. For a fuller and more technical description of the architecture of the Abbey, with illustrations of several parts, readers are referred to Mr. Bonds "Architectural Handbook of Glastonbury Abbey."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Abbot of Glastonbury: A Tale of the Dissolution of the Monasteries The Author humbly ventures to offer the ninth of his series of original tales, illustrating Church History, to the public; encouraged by the favourable reception the previous volumes have found, In the tales, "AEmilius," "Evanus," and "The Camp on the Severn," he has endeavoured to describe the epoch of the Pagan persecutions, under the Roman Empire; in the "Three Chronicles of AEsccndune," successive epochs of Early English history; in the "Andredsweald," the Norman Conquest; in "Fairleigh Hall," the Great Rebellion; and in the present volume, one of the earliest of the series of events ordinarily grouped under the general phrase "The Reformation," the destruction of the Monasteries. It is many years since the writer was first attracted and yet saddened by the tragical story of the fate of the last Abbot of Glastonbury, and amongst the tales by which he was wont to enliven the Sunday evenings in a large School, this narrative found a foremost place, and excited very general interest, A generation ago, few English Churchmen cared to say a good word for the unhappy monks, who suffered so cruel a persecution at the hands of Henry the Eighth and his vicar-general, Thomas Cromwell.

Download or read book History of the Abbey of St Alban Classic Reprint written by L. F. Rushbrook Williams and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Abbey of St. Alban In the following pages an attempt is made to present, within reasonable compass, the history of one of the greatest of English Abbeys. Should excuse be sought for a book so small which deals with a subject so large, it may be found in the fact that the treatment of authorities is eclectic rather than exhaustive. By the sacrifice of much that is curious and of a little that is important, it has been possible to construct a duly-balanced, if summary, narrative of the life-history of St. Albans. In accordance with this plan matters economic, despite the masses of material which are in existence concerning them, have not been allowed to usurp more than their due share of attention. They are treated only in such detail as suffices to ensure an appreciation of the part they played among the other activities of the Abbey. At the risk of some infringement of the continuity of history, it has seemed best to emphasize the break caused by the death of each abbot, not because the end of an abbot's rule, like the termination of a king's reign, is a convenient point at which to conclude a chapter, but because the history of a Benedictine House is primarily a resultant of the various impulses supplied by the personalities of those individuals who guided its destinies.

And yet I cannot but here publickly declare that I think it would have been more happy for Her, as well as for the Nation in general had King Henry VIII. only reformed and not destroyed the Abbeys and other Religious Houses. Monastic Institution is very ancient, and it had been very laudable had he reduced the Manner of Worship to the Primitive Form."
