Download or read book History of the Abbey of St Alban Classic Reprint written by L. F. Rushbrook Williams and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-05 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Abbey of St. Alban In the following pages an attempt is made to present, within reasonable compass, the history of one of the greatest of English Abbeys. Should excuse be sought for a book so small which deals with a subject so large, it may be found in the fact that the treatment of authorities is eclectic rather than exhaustive. By the sacrifice of much that is curious and of a little that is important, it has been possible to construct a duly-balanced, if summary, narrative of the life-history of St. Albans. In accordance with this plan matters economic, despite the masses of material which are in existence concerning them, have not been allowed to usurp more than their due share of attention. They are treated only in such detail as suffices to ensure an appreciation of the part they played among the other activities of the Abbey. At the risk of some infringement of the continuity of history, it has seemed best to emphasize the break caused by the death of each abbot, not because the end of an abbot's rule, like the termination of a king's reign, is a convenient point at which to conclude a chapter, but because the history of a Benedictine House is primarily a resultant of the various impulses supplied by the personalities of those individuals who guided its destinies.

This book was released on 2018-02-04 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the Architecture of the Abbey Church of St. Alban: With Special Reference to the Norman Structure The present Volume, devoted more particularly to an inquiry into the History of the Norman Architecture of the Abbey Church of St. Alban, is the fulfilment of an intention intimated so long since as the year 1883, in a letter upon the same subject, published in the pages of the Gentleman's Magazine. From that time until now, this venerable and very interesting structure has engaged the attention of the writers, but not without intervals of considerable length, occasioned by employment of a more urgent nature: the delay, however, has proved beneficial, inasmuch as it has afforded ample opportunities for repeated examinations of the Building, and mature investigations of those portions of its earlier architecture which remain, and much of which is so singularly intermingled with later works of different ages, that too great care could not have been bestowed in collecting evidence in support of the notion that the figure or ground plan of this Church did, when entire, exceed both in form and dimensions the opinion current upon the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Restoration of St. Alban's Abbey: Report of George Gilbert Scott, Esq. R. A As my report may fall into the hands of many who are unacquainted with this most venerable structure, I will beg your Lordship's permission brie y to detail what you know so well as to the general outline of its architectural history and characteristics. Of the romano-british Church erected in the days of Constantine over the grave of the proto-martyr it is need less to say that we have no existing remains. It was standing in the time of Bede, and still later in that of Offa; indeed it is not certain that it was wholly rebuilt by that King when he founded the Monastery; so that it may have remained incorporated in the anglo-saxon Church till the period when the present gigantic structure was erected; and its fragments, indistinguishable from the mass of Roman material of which the Church is so largely constructed, may yet form part of its venerable walls.
