Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ballads of the English Reformation Of the five ballads contained in the following pages, those of John Brown's martyrdom and Hugh Latimer are the only ones in which I have taken leave to draw upon my imagination. The others are simply versified history. And in the case of the two where I have employed a certain amount of fiction, I have followed, nevertheless, the facts of history so far as they go, as the, reader may see by referring to the Notes. I would bespeak an indulgent criticism for these verses, on the plea that a writer of ballads is not bound to achieve a high poetic flight. I conceive that the cadence of metre will of itself do something to heighten the effect of a striking narrative; and that, for this reason alone, it is worth while to versify a tale which one would have to abide in the memory and heart of the reader.

This book was released on 2016-09-02 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from English Church and the Reformation This movement had been very greatly accelerated by the mortal struggle with feudalism which had occupied such a large part of the fifteenth century. In France and England the dis integrating force of an increasingly powerful semi-independent feudal aristocracy had succumbed to a new and more powerful monarchy personifying national unity and consolidation. The practical anarchy entailed by a disastrous period of civil war led Englishmen to welcome the prospect Of settled order and peace under the absolute rule of a new monarchy. Thus the termina tion of the Wars of the Roses with the battle of Bosworth Field enabled the Tudors to build up a strong and despotic government on the ruins of the old feudal nobility.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Female Martyrs of the English Reformation Who does not love, at the calm still hour of even ing, to pace around some venerable church, marking the dents and fissures in its old grey stone-work, which tell how many an age it has withstood the shocks of time; to gaze upon the outline of its antique tower, or tapering spire, as they rise towards heaven - a lively type of hope resting on faith's foundation - and then to glance upon the neighboring yew or elm, coeval in date with its hallowed companion There is that in the fashion of our old church es, and the scenery generally surrounding them, which appeals alike to devotional and national feeling and could we withdraw from these venerable piles the oblivious veil. Cast over their history by the supine thanklessness of suc cessive generations, we should view in each of them an emphatic memorial, a victorious trophy of the war waged by Papery against the Lamb: of the might whereby He who is King \of kings and Lord of lords overcame his blasphemous assailant; and of the deeds of his called, and chosen, and faithful followers, whpse voice from within those walls sent forth the sound of the gospel trumpet, through the length and breadth of the land.

This book was released on 2018-03-16 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Historians and the English Reformation When Cecil Rhodes looked beyond imperial to racial unity, he saw that it would be of advantage to all if Americans could be brought to live and study in the Mother-land. The writer of this page claims the distinction of having been a kind of Rhodes pilgrim before the Rhodes Scholarships were invented. Led by a gentle and well-wishing influence, he went to seek the advantages of interchange. And these he estimates as the main advantages of interchange: To abominate war between these kindred nations; to diminish prejudice; to promote something like a scheme of reciprocal free trade in institutions and ideals, in scholarship, in traditions, and initiative. I have, therefore, made a collection and reprint of some results in American historical work which I ask English people to exam ine, and of some English scholarship that I wish to introduce to a large class of my American fellow-citizens.

Download or read book The English Reformation and Puritanism written by Eri B. Hulbert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Reformation and Puritanism: With Other Lectures and Addresses Since his departure many students and friends have urged the publication of his manuscripts. There has been some hesitation about consenting to publish his lectures because of his well-known aversion to this while living, and also because much of his available material had not been written for publication. Furthermore, a number of his lectures were written years ago, and from time to time, as new facts were discovered to modify or amplify previous conceptions, notes were inserted, some of which were not elaborated and consequently had to be omitted in preparing the material for the press. Dr. Hulbert's method of classroom work was the use of an outline of his course for individual study, and the prepa ration of special subjects by students, while his lectures served as a preview or gave a resume of periods that were studied. It is not deemed expedient to reprint his syllabus of The English Reformation and Puritanism, as it is avail able for those who may specially desire it. Acknowledgment is made to his colleagues, Professors Franklin Johnson and J. W. Moncrief for their kind assist ance in seeing this volume through the press, as well as for their labor of love in teaching his classes during his illness and finishing for him his term's courses. It is hoped by his children that the publication of these lectures and addresses, with a brief memoir of the author, may not only serve as a worthy memorial of our honored teacher and father, but that in printed form they may help to continue his life-work.

Download or read book Thomas Cranmer written by Albert Frederick Pollard and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thomas Cranmer: And the English Reformation, 1489-1556 If an author might frankly review his own book in his Preface, the following pages would take as their text the caution, "Beware of too much explaining lest we end by too much excusing." For the present volume seeks to explain as much as possible. To extenuate nothing is a golden rule, but the grossest injustice ensues upon a neglect of extenuating circumstances. All the proverbs notwithstanding, explanation is the first duty of the historian and the biographer; and Cranmer has been termed the most mysterious figure in the English Reformation. The obscurity is not in his character, but in the atmosphere which he breathed, and atmosphere is the most difficult of all things to re-create. As a rule there are no materials; for to people who live in it, a political or religious atmosphere is a familiar thing, which needs no explanation and therefore is not re corded in documents. Then the atmosphere changes, and can only be recalled to posterity by an observation and reflexion compared with which the mere ascertainment of facts is easy.
