Download or read book Dismembering the Body Politic written by Paul D. Halliday and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-11-13 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a major survey of how towns were governed in late Stuart and early Hanoverian England. A new kind of politics emerged out of England's Civil War: partisan politics. This happened first in the corporations governing the towns, and not at Parliament as is usually argued. Based on an examination of the records of scores of corporations, this book explains how war unleashed a cycle of purge and counter-purge which continued for decades. It also explains how a society that feared a system of politics based on division found the means to absorb it peacefully. As conflict sharpened in communities everywhere, local competitors turned to the court of King's Bench to resolve their differences. In doing so, they prompted the court to develop a new body of law that protected local governments from the divisive impulses within them.

Download or read book The Life and Times of Samuel Prideaux Tregelles written by Timothy C. F. Stunt and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book sheds light on the career of Samuel Prideaux Tregelles, and in doing so touches on numerous aspects of nineteenth-century British and European religious history. Several recent scholars have celebrated the 200th anniversary of the German textual critic Tischendorf but Tregelles, his contemporary English rival, has been neglected, despite his achievements being comparable. In addition to his decisive contribution to Biblical textual scholarship, this study of Tregelles’ career sheds light on developments among Quakers in the period, and Tregelles’s enthusiastic involvement with the early nineteenth-century Welsh literary renaissance usefully supplements recent studies on Iolo Morganwg. The early career of Tregelles also gives valuable fresh detail to the origins of the Plymouth Brethren, (in both England and Italy) the study of whose early history has become more extensive over the last twenty years. The whole of Tregelles’s career therefore illuminates neglected aspects of Victorian religious life.

Download or read book Falmouth written by Ann Sears and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002-02-25 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For hundreds of years, people have been drawn to Falmouth, the town of the "shining sea," immortalized by Falmouth native Katherine Lee Bates in her poem America, the Beautiful. Quakers, farmers, whaling captains, marine scientists, Coast Guardsmen, summer residents, Portuguese immigrants from the Azores and Cape Verde Islands, vacationers, and retiring World War II veterans have all found a special place in Falmouth. The photographs in Falmouth celebrate these people and the town they have built. Through the eyes of nearly fifty photographers, these views capture the glorious natural and architectural heritage that has defined the three-hundred-and-forty-year history of this Cape Cod community. From the spare lines of the Quaker meetinghouse and the poorhouse to the spires of churches and the elaborate summer "cottages" of Falmouth's golden age in the 1880s, these vintage photographs offer a rich visual tour through the town's history. Unforgettable images of people-whalers posing for the camera on rare trips home, fishermen returning to port, cranberry pickers, and wealthy summer residents playing croquet in summer whites-combine to show the unique community that is Falmouth.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Lectures on the Early History of the Town of Falmouth: Covering the Time From Its Settlement to 1812 The Material in this volume forms three lectures on the Early History of Falmouth, which were written and delivered by Mr. Charles W. Jenkins, in Falmouth, about the year 1843. They were afterwards lent and lost for many years, but were recovered by me a few years ago, and are now printed as an addition to the literature of the two hundredth anniversary of the incorporation of the town. Only slight verbal changes have been made in the text of the lectures. Mr. Jenkins devoted much time and careful study to the records of the town, church and society, and also learned much town tradition from the older inhabitants; information which could not be gathered now, nearly fifty years later. It is to be hoped that some one may be interested to take up immediately the history where these lectures leave it, 1812, and carry it on to the close of the war of the Rebellion. The difficulty of getting the data for such a record will increase rapidly from now on. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
