Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Cathedral in the American Church Having made this explanation, it may be right for him to state something of the way in which he has executed it. He has not indulged the least hesitancy in the freest use of what others have said. He has adopted their words when they have answered his pur pose, and their great names seemed to add authority to their Opinions; and he has appropriated their views when for any reason, such as brevity, he could not quote their language. He wishes here in this general way to disclaim all originality or pretense of it. At the same time, when the conditions of our country and generation have come into view he has expressed his own opinion with reference to them. Many matters which might well be given a place in a book on the subject have been passed over; others which might well be given a large place have been only touched upon. This has been necessary in the writer's view of the practical usefulness of the book. He has thought that next to such a book being written it was most desirable that it should be small. He hopes, however, that it may suggest to the interested reader more than is written out at length. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Building of a Cathedral This little book is sent forth in response to the ever-growing demand for more definite and detailed information concerning the Cathedral of ss. Peter and Paul in Washington. It has been a labour of love to write it; not only in grateful remembrance of those Cathedral workers in Washington, who have gone before us, but because the ideal of a cathedral, like its majestic watch tower, soars so high toward God and His Heaven above the crowded streets of the city and the noisy din of earthly life. And this ideal has been inspired by Christ Himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Episcopal Church: Interpreted for English Churchmen The scope of this book is limited to the presentation of the history of the American Church in those aspects Which help towards an understanding of its peculiar problems and local and national environment. The Catholic Church is one and the same everywhere. The life of the Catholic Church at different periods and among various nationalities and political cir cumstances emphasises certain related features. The drawing together during the war of allied nations has deepened or created a desire on the part of the Church among such nations to under stand better the characteristics Which underlie the Christian presentation of the Church. This volume is intended to be a contribution to such fuller appreciation and understanding, rather than a, detailed history of the American Church, Written primarily for American Churchmen.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Exeter Cathedral In outline and character generally, this fine church is unique. There are larger churches and loftier churches there are, as at Wells and Salisbury, cathedral churches more picturesquely situated, but nowhere is there a cathedral of greater originality, of more complete harmony, of more obvious and striking unity. The church of Exeter, says Dr. Freeman, who by the breadth of his knowledge was more than most men competent to say it, forms a class by itself. As far as detail goes, he adds, no building of its age shows us the taste of that age in greater perfection. It does not hold its high place in the hierarchy of churches in virtue of the area of ground which it covers. It does not rank in magnitude with the great cathedral of Wessex, or the greater church of Canterbury, or with Lincoln, or with York. But in originality, in harmony, in unity, it bears comparison with the proudest of them all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Secret of Progress Buckle1 regarded it as clear that militarism and high intellectual development were not compatible: till recently, many people were prepared to believe that warfare was alien to the interest of civilised peoples and could only occur among half civilised or backward races. But this war has shown that these hopes were vain, and that the last result of civilisation was not to render war impossible, but to give the means of carrying it out on a vastly extended scale. The increase of knowledge and of power over nature, and the sense of the benefits of intercourse and inter-communication have not sufficed to give us any immunity from war.

Download or read book Notes on the Cathedrals Classic Reprint written by William H. Fairbairns and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-28 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Notes on the Cathedrals The object, then, of these Notes is not merely to give tables of building dates, but also to show how closely the cathedrals are knit with the general history of the land. The lives of the bishops, many of them the leading statesmen of their day, are full of interest, and their monuments, together with those of others not less worthy, arrest attention with an endless variety of story. We stand at the shrine of St. Alban, as thousands of pilgrims have stood before, and the early history of Christianity in Britain is recalled. Not that We are quite at the b 'nuing, for Chichester, with its interesting legend of Pu ens and Claudia, carries us back to a still earlier time. But both remind us that the Christian reli ion came to our country with the Romans. At Durham, t e name of Cuthbert is romantically linked with thoughts of Iona, the Celtic missions, and the coming of the Danes. Canterbury tells of Augustine, of the Norman Conquest, of the establishment of foreign prelates in England, of the subsequent contests between the secular powers and the Church, of Chaucer and his Pilgrims. And so we might go on, associating different periods of history with different cathedrals: Salisbury, and Lichfield, and York with the great building age; Winchester with the growth of public schools, and the Universities Gloucester with the martyrs; Worcester with Cromwell; St. Paul's, and Wakefield with modern times. It would perhaps be best to link Liverpool with the future. For Liverpool is a diocese waiting for its faithful, and its rich, to endow it with a cathedral worth of themselves, of their great city, and of the Church. Ut although periods or epochs of history be coupled with particular cathedrals, it must be remembered that each can tell nearly the whole history of England in its own way. At St. Albans for instance, just as the very stones zpeak of every date from Roman times to that of the mo ern restorer, so its associations take us back to the earliest period in the history of our country, and carry us thence, through the Conquest, the Middle Ages, the story of Becket, the Peasant Rising. The Wars of the Roses, the Reformation, to the trans formation of the old monastic church into the cathedral of to-day.
