Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Irish Church Perhaps the greatest interest of all will be felt by those who, rejoicing in the liberty of a reformed faith and an emancipated Church, will see in Ireland the last of the Western Churches to acknowledge the supremacy of, the pope. When all other parts of Western Europe had already for centuries acknow ledged his sway, Ireland was still independent.

Download or read book Saint Patrick and the Early Church of Ireland Classic Reprint written by Wm M. Blackburn and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Saint Patrick, and the Early Church of Ireland Was there ever such a man as Saint Patrick? It was wise to consider this question before attempting to write his life. By some it has been doubted, by a few others denied. But in such cases there has usually been a strong party feeling, or an ignorance of certain original sources of history. There is a distinction to be made between the myth and the man. Imagination has given us a Robinson Crusoe; the real man was Alexander Selkirk. The Saint Patrick of the ordinary Irish heart is certainly very mythical. The portrait of him was drawn from imagination; the colours are not those of the fifth, but those of the twelfth or fourteenth century. The deeds are manufactured to order and by the job, and the life is made of the baldest legends. This Patrick is a fully-developed Papist of the time, when certain errors pre vailed, which he could not have known in the fifth century. He is constantly working miracles, some of them very trifling, and some of them astounding, beyond all that was ever recorded of a mere man. For his especial benefit divine revelations are made to him, which cause a greater amazement than any ever made to Moses or Paul. He is too wonderful to be real. The myth business was entirely overdone. The manufacturers did not perceive that com mon sense might some time be restored to the human race. In the Middle Ages it was customary with the monks to exercise their scholars in writing the lives of imaginary saints; asserting that it was a pious and very improving way of exercising the imagination! L The best of these fanciful biographies were laid aside for future use; and after the lapse of a few ages, when their statements could not be disproved, were produced and published as genuine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Celtic Church in Ireland: The Story of Ireland and Irish Christianity From Before the Time of St. Patrick to the Reformation The study of the organisation of the Celtic Church in Ireland has suffered greatly from having been pursued almost invariably in the light of modern Church systems, and with a constant effort to recon cile it with them. The effect has been to obscure or to keep out of sight its altogether unique features. If any justification is needed for another book on Irish history, the best apology the present writer can offer is that he has at least tried his utmost to regard and represent the facts with an unbiassed mind, and from an independent point of view.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Primer of the History of the Holy Catholic Church in Ireland, Vol. 1: From the Introduction of Christianity to the Formation of the Modern Irish Branch of the Church of Rome The Papacy, says he, maintains its ascendancy by artful system 0 accommodation to the natural princi Ice and motives of man. Of these, it has chiefly taken to its ai in Ire land that national spirit and pride of ancestry by which the lower classes of our countrymen are so amiably, yet so dangerously dis tiaguished. The Irish are a fondl national people they know li e of their ancestors, but they b eve of them everything which enters into their conceptions of worth and greatness; and they feel a h although mournful consolation, in turning from their own con °tion to the supposed freedom and glory and hap iness of other times. These principles have been incorporate into their creed - they receive their religion as the last bequest the last token, of their almost canonised forefathers, and they cling to it with a devoted and desperate fidelity.

Download or read book The Ancient Irish Church written by John Healy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-24 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ancient Irish Church The History of the Ancient Irish Church has an importance of its own. It concerns not merely the Irishman who naturally desires to learn how Christianity came to be preached in his own land, for the subject is of scarcely less interest to the dweller in England or Scotland. The former finds in Ireland the counterpart of the old British Church, and traces to that island, besides, the source whence much of the Christianity of the Anglo-Saxon was first derived. As he marks how from time to time the English Church struggled for liberty - how, long before the time of the Reformation, the authority of the Pope was resisted or rendered only a grudging recognition - he will rightly trace this independent spirit to the tone originally given to the Church by the Celtic missionaries. The latter looks to the Church of Ireland as the parent Church of his Own. The story of Iona, and of the conversion of the tribes of Caledonia, is as much Irish as it is Scotch. But to the student of general Church History, Ireland is also important. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Catechism of the History of Ireland written by James J. Brennan and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Catechism of the History of Ireland: Ancient, Mediaeval, and Modern Most writers on this subject have confined themselves almost entirely to the more recent events, but this is an oversight, for, as Dr. Johnson remarks, they begin too late. The ages, says he, which deserve an exact inquiry are those - for such there we're - when Ireland was the school of the West, the quiet habitation Of sanc tity and literature. In'the beginning of the book there is a separate chap ter explaining the plan Of the work, and before each Of the three parts there is another to prepare the way for what follows it. The chapters indeed are brief, but, on an average, each Of them includes the events Of a generation. In the third part, they have been grouped according to events, because the reigns of the English sovereigns mark no epochs in our history. The form into which the work has been put, seems best adapted for the Object in View, as we see from the practice Of the Church, which always makes use of the Catechism in imparting elementary instruction.

Download or read book The Church of Ireland Classic Reprint written by Thomas Olden and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Church of Ireland While these sheets were passing through the press the Church of Ireland suffered a grievous loss in the death of the learned and accomplished Dr. Reeves, Bishop of Down, Connor, and Dromore, who was without a rival in his acquaintance with the ecclesiastical literature of Ireland. Up to the last, notwithstanding his many engagements, he found time with his usual kindness to read the proofs of this work for me. The essay on S. Patrick (Appendix A.) had not then been reached by the printer, but before any part of the work went to the press I had sent this to the Bishop in manuscript. I felt doubtful as to how he would receive it, as it differs considerably from previous theories on the subject. I was, however, much gratified when he assured me of the pleasure with which he read the argument. I hope it will be found to throw some light on a difficult subject. The Bishop has been taken from us, in the Providence of God, when he could ill be spared, and I deeply regret that it is now not in my power to thank him for the help he so willingly gave me.
