Book The Book of Faith

Download or read book The Book of Faith written by Reginald Pecock and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-20 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reginald Pecock (ca. 1390-1459) was the cause of a great scandal for the late medieval Church. In the autumn of 1457, the bishop of Chichester confessed, among other things, that the Church itself could err in matters of faith. On the eve of the Protestant Reformation, however, a high-ranking cleric making such a claim was both embarrassing and a big liability. The Book of Faith, finished just months before Pecock's disgrace, is the only record of this claim. Whether Pecock wrote portions of the treatise in anticipation of an assault that he already saw being set in motion against him, or whether it unintentionally foreshadowed what the highest levels of clerical dissent could look like, this book nonetheless represents a unique attempt to reconcile a critical laity with a conservative Church.In the only modern English translation of Pecock's work, the impassioned, earnest, and often exasperated bishop comes to life-and along with him the drama of religious dissent in the pre-Reformation English Church.

Book Reginald Pecock s Vision of Religious Education for  alle Cristen Peple  in Fifteenth century England

Download or read book Reginald Pecock s Vision of Religious Education for alle Cristen Peple in Fifteenth century England written by Kirsty Campbell and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 742 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While a range of religious works written for lay-folk in late medieval England are prefaced by the author's hesitance to add to the growing "multitude of bokes and tretees drawne in englische, "1 the surviving works of Reginald Pecock boldly announce that they are the only necessary books for both lay and religious audiences, and furthermore, that they must be studied daily. This dissertation points to the ambitious nature of Pecock's comprehensive program for lay education, investigating the reasons why Pecock felt so strongly about the need for his rational, philosophical texts among pious lay readers. The first two chapters examine continuities between the sophisticated religious prose of the late fourteenth century and Pecock's corpus in terms of the way that these works sought to influence the pious laity through instruction on devotional practices: these chapters work from the understanding that critical focus on Pecock's rational approach to lay religion has obscured his commitment to challenging lay readers to develop spiritual practices rooted in both stirring the affect and stimulating the intellect. Chapter three analyzes Pecock's position on the controversial issue of lay Bible reading, highlighting his efforts to draw readers away from the Lollard textual community into a new community structured around the authoritative book of reason. Chapter four focuses on the relations that Pecock envisions between members of this textual community: Pecock's vision of friendship, love, and "felawlik comunycacioun" 2 between clergy and laity in his imagined textual community is situated within a range of late fourteenth- and fifteenth-century ideas about how to define proper relations between the clergy and laity at a time when knowledge and learning is passing out of the hands---and the control---of the trained clergy and into the hands of the untrained laity. The fifth chapter studies Pecock's views on the best way to educate the lay reader to ensure the most stability, spiritual profit, and harmony within the community, focusing on the way Pecock structures his works to facilitate the integration of various groups in the community through the progress and evolution of the lay reader.1 "Orologium Sapientiae or The Seven Poyntes of Trewe Wisdom aus MS Douce 114," ed.

Book Broken Idols of the English Reformation

Download or read book Broken Idols of the English Reformation written by Margaret Aston and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-26 with total page 1994 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why were so many religious images and objects broken and damaged in the course of the Reformation? Margaret Aston's magisterial new book charts the conflicting imperatives of destruction and rebuilding throughout the English Reformation from the desecration of images, rails and screens to bells, organs and stained glass windows. She explores the motivations of those who smashed images of the crucifixion in stained glass windows and who pulled down crosses and defaced symbols of the Trinity. She shows that destruction was part of a methodology of religious revolution designed to change people as well as places and to forge in the long term new generations of new believers. Beyond blanked walls and whited windows were beliefs and minds impregnated by new modes of religious learning. Idol-breaking with its emphasis on the treacheries of images fundamentally transformed not only Anglican ways of worship but also of seeing, hearing and remembering.

Book English Preaching in the Late Middle Ages

Download or read book English Preaching in the Late Middle Ages written by H. Leith Spencer and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary study of English sermons written in the late fourteenth and fifteenth centuries focuses on material recorded in English and relates the surviving texts to their historical and cultural background. H. Leith Spencer shows how the use of the vernacular to explore ideas hitherto expressed in Latin anticipated the better-known developments of the sixteenth century. His detailed and original study, drawing on the most up-to-date research, uncovers the pluralism of the medieval English church that anti-heretical legislation and Reformed propaganda sought to deny.
