Book excerpt: Excerpt from Canterbury As we stand upon the summit of Bell Harry Tower - more happily called the Angel Steeple of Canterbury Cathedral, looking down upon city and countryside, much of the history of England lies spread beneath our feet: the Britons were at work here before the Romans came marching with their stolid legions here to Ethelbert, Saxon King of Kent, St Augustine preached the gospel of Christ; in the church below, Becket was murdered and the Black Prince buried; to this city, to the shrine of St Thomas, came innumerable pilgrims, one of them our first great English poet; then the crash of the Reformation swept away shrines and pilgrims, the mirk and romance of mediaeval ism vanished into the mists of history, and the city to-day lives chiefly in the past.

Download or read book Memorials of the Cathedral and Priory of Christ in Canterbury Classic Reprint written by C. Eveleigh Woodruff and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memorials of the Cathedral and Priory of Christ in Canterbury The aim of the authors of the present book is to give a trustworthy, readable, and compendious account of the Cathedral from the earliest times to the present day. To do this within the compass of a single octavo volume it has been necessary to confine the range of view strictly to the church and its custodians. Thus, since the book does not claim to be a history of the See of Canterbury, little is said about the Archbishops except when they came into contact with the defacto governing body - prior and convent before, and dean and chapter after, the Reformation. To write a history of the great Benedictine priory of Christ Church would require a separate volume; but its fortunes and internal economy are sketched in the following pages with some fulness of detail, and this we believe to be a distinctive feature of the present book. Throughout an honest attempt has been made - to go to first-hand sources of information, and the recent rearrangement of the Cathedral archives has Opened out some which have not hitherto been avail able. Full advantage has been taken of this Oppor tunity, with the result that the authors have been able to incorporate in their book some fresh matter, and much more which, if not absolutely new, has hitherto been known only to a few.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exeter Cathedral In outline and character generally, this fine church is unique. There are larger churches and loftier churches there are, as at Wells and Salisbury, cathedral churches more picturesquely situated, but nowhere is there a cathedral of greater originality, of more complete harmony, of more obvious and striking unity. The church of Exeter, says Dr. Freeman, who by the breadth of his knowledge was more than most men competent to say it, forms a class by itself. As far as detail goes, he adds, no building of its age shows us the taste of that age in greater perfection. It does not hold its high place in the hierarchy of churches in virtue of the area of ground which it covers. It does not rank in magnitude with the great cathedral of Wessex, or the greater church of Canterbury, or with Lincoln, or with York. But in originality, in harmony, in unity, it bears comparison with the proudest of them all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical Memorials of Canterbury In July 1851, Arthur Penrhyn Stanley, the future Dean of Westminster, was appointed a Canon of Canterbury. About a year before, on the death of his eldest brother Owen, he became the heir to a small landed property and had to give up his fellowship at University College, Oxford. This prepared the way for his Canterbury charge. He was much involved at this time in his exacting work on the Oxford University Commission (which engaged him till July 1852); but he threw himself whole-heartedly into his new work at Canterbury, and he felt the interest and immemorial charm of the place profoundly from his first real acquaintance with it. He had dreaded the change, when it was first proposed. In his days of parting with Oxford, he asked one of his pupils to think of him as lost in "that huge Cathedral." But once established he found the quiet, the rare and gentle antiquity, and the peace-giving associations of Canterbury healing to his mind. They were at the same time most quickening to his historical imagination. He actually became Canon in residence towards the end of November. On December the 29th, the anniversary of Becket's death, he went at five o'clock, the fatal hour, to the spot which every Canterbury pilgrim visits. He found the great, solemn church full of "history and ghosts," as he put it. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
