Book excerpt: Excerpt from Iconography of the West Front of Wells Cathedral: With an Appendix on the Sculptures of Other Medieval Churches in England The sculptures Of Wells Cathedral were designed to illustrate in the most ample and striking manner, the great and fundamental doctrines of the Christian Faith, its happy advent to this country, and its subsequent protection under the several dynasties to the date of their execution in 1214. For reasons hereafter to be explained, they relate also in a peculiar manner to the anglo-saxon originators of those laws and institutions which, under favouring Providence, have spread them selves together with Our race over vast portions Of the globe. They were conceived and executed by minds which enforced Magna Charta, and with Roger Bacon, Greathead, Scotus, and others, raised the intellectual character of our country to the highest grade of European civilization at that period. Fraught at once with the gravest and most important interests of religion, history, and archaeology, according to the learning and the taste of their day, they demand the best attention which can be bestowed upon them.

Download or read book The Royal Image and the English People written by Nicola Smith and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-12 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title was first published in 2001. For the English people, the image of the monarchy is deeply bound up with the idea of nationhood. This book surveys aspects of England's royal heritage dialogue from the late middle ages to the 19th century. It concentrates on monumental sculpted portraits because that was the way in which the image of the monarchy was customarily presented in the most immediate and permanent form at large scale in the public arena. The aim of such memorials was to consolidate and commemorate shared loyalties and beliefs, focusing on the monarchs. They were sometimes protected by railings, more often than just by their talismanic value. There was widespread resistance to the idea that Oliver Cromwell should be commemorated by public memorial. The English generally remained uncomfortable with the idea of republicanism. The monarchial government of the middle ages, thought to be sanctioned by God, was very different from the figurehead the monarchy has become.
