Excerpt: ... circuit of visitation round her happy residence, when her presence carried joy and consolation, and instruction, to the scenes of want and woe, and brutal ignorance, we feel a sort of kindred cord which binds us to her, together with the whole human race."--British Review, vol . xviii., pp. 102, 109. [January 1821.] My Dear Feiend, --I send some doggerel verses. I think they are below Hannah, but may be about equal to Margaret's attainments. I wrote, or rather spoke them, of an evening, while I was nursing the sick child, * who, at the worst, was always crying out for poetry, and I wrote them down on the following mornings. The "New Testament" shall follow soon. I have been quite alone above a month, during which I had a severe attaek . A violent shivering fit was prelude to a high fever; but, through the mercy of God, it did not last many days. I am tolerably again. I have many things I wish to say, but have been overdone with petty cares, which make up in number what they want in weight. I was never more busy even when I was better qualified for business. This is always the case at Christmas, and solitude was no bad thing for me. I don't see either in Hatchard's or Cadell's bill the two copies of the works I promised to send your General. I fear you have forgotten it. Pray recollect "Hints to a Princess," and "Strictures on Education." Miss Roberts's are coming to me. I hope you are all enjoying your Christmas, with your children, in health and comfort. * A child of one of her servants, whom Mrs More kindly befriended. Do things at all mend, either in the world of politics or commerce? I fear not. Tell Mrs M. I have just had three letters to announce the death of old Mr V. in Park Street. He was the oldest friend I had; much above half a...

Download or read book Evangelicals and Culture written by Doreen Rosman and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2011-04-01 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nineteenth-century evangelicals have often been dismissed as anti-intellectual and philistine. This book draws on periodicals, memoirs, and letters to discover how far this was true of British evangelicals between 1790 and 1833. It examines their leisure pursuits along with their enjoyment of art, music, literature, and study, and concludes that they shared the thought and taste of their contemporaries to a far greater extent than is usually acknowledged. What is more, their theology encouraged such activities. Evangelicals regarded recreations which engaged the mind or which could be pursued within the safety of the home as more concordant with spirituality than "sensual" or "worldly" pleasures. Nevertheless, their faith did militate against culture and learning. Some evangelicals dismissed all non-religious pursuits as "vanity," since their deep-rooted otherworldliness made them suspicious of anything that did not contribute to eternal well-being. A new generation adopted a more rigid attitude to the Bible, which made them unwilling to examine new ideas. In the last resort, even the most cultured evangelicals were unable to reconcile their delight in the arts with their world-denying theology.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " ... Explores the emothional, intellectual, and political roots of Zachary Macaulay, the leading abolitionalist, and his son Thomas's visions of race, nation and empire. The story moves from late eighteenth-century Scotland to the plantations of Jamaica, from the new colony of Sierra Leone to India, from Leeds and Edinburgh to London. The Macaulay family with its intense dynamics and complex relationships provides one thread while the politics of abolition, of reform, of empire and of history writing is another. The contrasting moments of evangelical humanitarianism and liberal imperialism are seen through the writings and careers of father and son."--P [2] of cover.

Download or read book Coelebs in Search of a Wife written by Hannah More and published by Broadview Press. This book was released on 2007-05-24 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this, Hannah More’s only novel and an early nineteenth-century best-seller, More gives voice to a wealthy twenty-three-year-old bachelor, who styles himself “Coelebs” (unmarried), but seeks a wife. After the death of his father, Coelebs journeys from the north of England to London, where he encounters a fashionable array of eager mothers and daughters before he visits the Hampshire home of his father’s friend, Mr. Stanley. Lucilla Stanley, Mr. Stanley’s daughter, is both an intellectual and a domestic woman, and Coelebs’ ideal partner. In this intelligent novel about the meeting of two minds, More shows the ways in which a couple becomes truly “matched” as opposed to merely “joined.” Along with a critical introduction, this Broadview edition includes a wide selection of historical documents, from reviews, imitations, and sequels of Coelebs in Search of a Wife to related contemporary writings on conduct, courtship, and women’s education.
