Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical and Literary Memorials of Presbyterianism in Ireland: 1623-1731 Notwithstanding all the care which has been spent on the preparation of this work, the Author cannot say that he is satisfied. Though he has done all in his power to collect information, the book must appear to his readers, as it appears to himself, defective in execution and often meagre in details. But had he waited till he could make it perfect, it would never have been printed. It is now given to the public, in the hope that it may interest those who wish to know our Presbyterian history, and that it may help to bring to light some additional facts, not yet known to the writer, but which may serve to enrich some subsequent edition. Most of the gentlemen, to whom the Author has been indebted for assistance less or more in gathering the material, are named in the notes; but there are two entitled to special recognition and thanks. The first is the Rev. Dr. Killen of Belfast, who, either from the library of the Belfast Presbyterian College, or from his own private library, most kindly gave the use of every pamphlet marked with the letters "A. C. B."

This book was released on 2017-05-14 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Historical and Literary Memorials of Presbyterianism in Ireland (1731-1800): Second Series IN the present volume the reader will notice some deviation from the original plan. That plan was to give a distinct chapter to each writer, without regard to the importance of the work which he published, or to the position which he filled. This was found on experience to be attended with some practical dis advantage. But in the present volume, to each of the more prominent writers only a separate chapter is given, while all the others are grouped together in a single chapter at the end. By this means space is economised, and a longer period of time is compre hended in the volume. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Irish Presbyterian Mind

Download or read book The Irish Presbyterian Mind written by Andrew R. Holmes and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-09-13 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Irish Presbyterian Mind considers how one protestant community responded to the challenges posed to traditional understandings of Christian faith between 1830 and 1930. Andrew R. Holmes examines the attitudes of the leaders of the Presbyterian Church in Ireland to biblical criticism, modern historical method, evolutionary science, and liberal forms of protestant theology. He explores how they reacted to developments in other Christian traditions, including the so-called 'Romeward' trend in the established Churches of England and Ireland and the 'Romanisation' of Catholicism. Was their response distinctively Presbyterian and Irish? How was it shaped by Presbyterian values, intellectual first principles, international denominational networks, identity politics, the expansion of higher education, and relations with other Christian denominations? The story begins in the 1830s when evangelicalism came to dominate mainstream Presbyterianism, the largest protestant denomination in present-day Northern Ireland. It ends in the 1920s with the exoneration of J. E. Davey, a professor in the Presbyterian College, Belfast, who was tried for heresy on accusations of being a 'modernist'. Within this timeframe, Holmes describes the formation and maintenance of a religiously-conservative intellectual community. At the heart of the interpretation is the interplay between the Reformed theology of the Westminster Confession of Faith and a commitment to common evangelical principles and religious experience that drew protestants together from various denominations. The definition of conservative within the Presbyterian Church in Ireland moved between these two poles and could take on different forms depending on time, geography, social class, and whether the individual was a minister or a member of the laity.

Book The Shaping of Ulster Presbyterian Belief and Practice  1770 1840

Download or read book The Shaping of Ulster Presbyterian Belief and Practice 1770 1840 written by Andrew R. Holmes and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2006-11-02 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A historical study of the most influential and important Protestant group in Northern Ireland - the Ulster Presbyterians. Andrew R. Holmes argues that to understand Ulster Presbyterianism is to begin to understand the character of Ulster Protestantism more generally and the relationship between religion and identity in present-day Northern Ireland. He examines the various components of public and private religiosity and how these were influenced by religious concerns, economic and social changes, and cultural developments. He takes the religious beliefs and practices of the laity seriously in their own right, and thus allows for a better understanding of the Presbyterian community more generally.

Book The Presbyterians of Ulster  1680 1730

Download or read book The Presbyterians of Ulster 1680 1730 written by Robert Whan and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2013 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive survey and analysis of the Presbyterian community in its important formative period. The Presbyterian community in Ulster was created by waves of immigration, massively reinforced in the 1690s as Scots fled successive poor harvests and famine, and by 1700 Presbyterians formed the largest Protestant community in the north of Ireland. This book is a comprehensive survey and analysis of the Presbyterian community in this important formative period. It shows how the Presbyterians formed a highly organised, self-confident community which exercised a rigorous discipline over its members and had a well-developed intellectual life. It considers the various social groups within the community, demonstrating how the always small aristocratic and gentry component dwindled andwas virtually extinct by the 1730s, the Presbyterians deriving their strength from the middling sorts - clergy, doctors, lawyers, merchants, traders and, in particular, successful farmers and those active in the rapidly growing linen trades - and among the laborious poor. It discusses how Presbyterians were part of the economically dynamic element of Irish society; how they took the lead in the emigration movement to the American colonies; and how they maintained links with Scotland and related to other communities, in Ireland and elsewhere. Later in the eighteenth century, the Presbyterian community went on to form the backbone of the Republican, separatist movement. ROBERT WHAN obtained his Ph.D. in History from Queen's University, Belfast.
