This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Chartulary or Register of the Abbey of St. Werburgh, Chester, Vol. 2: Edited With Introduction and Notes The present volume completes the publication of the Chester Chartulary, the first part of which appeared three years ago. It includes more than five hundred documents (a few being specially numbered as not in the abbey register), and of these sixty-four are full texts with witnesses, gathered from various sources to replace the usually meagre abstracts of the register. The general proportion is slightly less than in Part I., but while that included no more than four taken from surviving originals, and one of these of contested authenticity, thirty-two, exactly half the total number of complete texts in the present part, are copied from originals. Of the thirty-two, twenty-four form part of the Mainwaring collection of charters which Sir Harry Mainwaring, when giving up Over Peover recently, placed in the John Rylands Library, Manchester, on loan for an indefinite period, for the use of students.1 Ormerod and his editor Helsby do not seem to have had access to these deeds, and did not make full use of the transcripts of many of them which the antiquaries of the seven teenth century have left. Until the middle of the eighteenth century they belonged to the Kermincham branch of the Main warings, which had acquired the abbey manor of Barnshaw-cum Goostrey and with it the deeds relating to the various estates included in the manor. On the sale of the manor to the main line between 1752 and 1757 2 the charters were transferred to Peover. There is reason to believe, however, that some deeds which originally formed part of the collection had become.

Book The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church

Download or read book The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church written by Frank Leslie Cross and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 1842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniquely authoritative and wide-ranging in its scope, The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church is the indispensable one-volume reference work on all aspects of the Christian Church. It contains over 6,000 cross-referenced A-Z entries, and offers unrivalled coverage of all aspects of this vast and often complex subject, including theology, churches and denominations, patristic scholarship, the bible, the church calendar and its organization, popes, archbishops, saints, and mystics. In this revision, innumerable small changes have been made to take into account shifts in scholarly opinion, recent developments, such as the Church of England's new prayer book (Common Worship), RC canonizations, ecumenical advances and mergers, and, where possible, statistics. A number of existing articles have been rewritten to reflect new evidence or understanding, for example the Holy Sepulchre entry, and there are a few new articles. Perhaps most significantly, a great number of the bibliographies have been updated. Established since its first appearance in 1957 as an essential resource for ordinands, clergy, and members of religious orders, ODCC is an invaluable tool for academics, teachers, and students of church history and theology, as well as for the general reader.

Book Mapping the Medieval City

    Book Details:
  • Author : Catherine A M Clarke
  • Publisher : University of Wales Press

  • ISBN : 1783164611
  • Pages : 359 pages

Download or read book Mapping the Medieval City written by Catherine A M Clarke and published by University of Wales Press. This book was released on 2011-05-15 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ground-breaking volume brings together contributions from scholars across a range of disciplines (including literary studies, history, geography and archaeology) to investigate questions of space, place and identity in the medieval city. Using Chester as a case study – with attention to its location on the border between England and Wales, its rich multi-lingual culture and surviving material fabric – the essays seek to recover the experience and understanding of the urban space by individuals and groups within the medieval city, and to offer new readings from the vantage-point of twenty-first century disciplinary and theoretical perspectives. The volume includes new interpretations of well-known sources and features such as the Chester Whistun Plays and the city’s Rows and walls, but also includes discussions of less-studied material such as Lucian’s In Praise of Chester – one of the earliest examples of urban encomium from England and an important text for understanding the medieval city – and the wealth of medieval Welsh poetry relating to Chester. Certain key themes emerge across the essays within this volume, including relations between the Welsh and English, formulations of centre and periphery, nation and region, different kinds of ‘mapping’ and the visual and textual representation of place, borders and boundaries, uses of the past in the production of identity, and the connections between discourses of gender and space. The volume seeks to generate conversation and debate amongst scholars of different disciplines, working across different locations and periods, and to open up directions for future work on space, place and identity in the medieval city.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Uniquely authoritative and wide-ranging in its scope, The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church is the indispensable reference work on all aspects of the Christian Church.

In this new edition, great efforts have been made to increase and strengthen coverage of non-Anglican denominations (for example non-Western European Christianity), as well as broadening the focus on Christianity and the history of churches in areas beyond Western Europe. In particular, there have been extensive additions with regards to the Christian Church in Asia, Africa, Latin America, North America, and Australasia. Significant updates have also been included on topics such as liturgy, Canon Law, recent international developments, non-Anglican missionary activity, and the increasingly important area of moral and pastoral theology, among many others. Since its first appearance in 1957, the ODCC has established itself as an essential resource for ordinands, clergy, and members of religious orders, and an invaluable tool for academics, teachers, and students of church history and theology, as well as for the general reader.
