Book The Life of Bishop Jewel  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Life of Bishop Jewel Classic Reprint written by Charles Webb le Bas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-17 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Bishop Jewel At the end of the Life, will be found as copious an account of Jewel's voluminous controversy with Harding, as appeared to be compatible with the de sign and limits of this publication. It is hoped that the Notice of that most memorable con ict may not be wholly uninteresting or unprofitable. Jewel is principally known and honoured, at the present day, as the author of the immortal Apology for the Church of England. But full justice cannot be done to his memory, without some knowledge of the extent and value of his other gigantic labours.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Writings of John Jewel, Bishop of Salisbury, Died 1571 Those words which have become unintelligible or offensive, are exchanged for others, or are explained by notes when it is desirable that they should be retained. These variations, if they may be so called, were as necessary to render this work generally useful, as the adoption of modern orthography. The utmost care has been taken that the meaning of the author should be strictly preserved, and the various pieces have been collated with the best and earliest editions, or with manuscript copies. This has been done, that the meaning of the author might be given as nearly as possible, not from the first editions being the most correct, as they often abound with errors, from which the hurried or careless manner in which they were for the most part passed through the press, will readily account. The present reprints, it it believed, will be found to present the most correct text of these writers that has hitherto appeared. More than half of the pieces included in this collection, have not been reprinted since the sixteenth century, and a considerable portion is now printed for the first time."

Book John Jewel and the English National Church

Download or read book John Jewel and the English National Church written by Gary W. Jenkins and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Jewel (1522-1571) has long been regarded as one of the key figures in the shaping of the Anglican Church. A Marian exile, he returned to England upon the accession of Elizabeth I, and was appointed bishop of Salisbury in 1560 and wrote his famous Apologia Ecclesiae Anglicanae two years later. The most recent monographs on Jewel, now over forty years old, focus largely on his theology, casting him as deft scholar, adept humanist, precursor to Hooker, arbiter of Anglican identity and seminal mind in the formation of Anglicanism. Yet in light of modern research it is clear that much of this does not stand up to closer examination. In this work, Gary Jenkins argues that, far from serving as the constructor of a positive Anglican identity, Jewel's real contribution pertains to the genesis of its divided and schizophrenic nature. Drawing on a variety of sources and scholarship, he paints a picture not of a theologian and humanist, but an orator and rhetorician, who persistently breached the rules of logic and the canons of Renaissance humanism in an effort to claim polemical victory over his traditionalist opponents such as Thomas Harding. By taking such an iconoclastic approach to Jewel, this work not only offers a radical reinterpretation of the man, but of the Church he did so much to shape. It provides a vivid insight into the intent and ends of Jewel with respect to what he saw the Church of England under the Elizabethan settlement to be, as well as into the unintended consequences of his work. In so doing, it demonstrates how he used his Patristic sources, often uncritically and faultily, as foils against his theological interlocutors, and without the least intention of creating a coherent theological system.

Book A Brief History of Printing in England

Download or read book A Brief History of Printing in England written by Frederick W. Hamilton and published by BEYOND BOOKS HUB. This book was released on 2021-01-01 with total page 63 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A BRIEF HISTORY of PRINTING IN ENGLAND England was slow to take up printing and slow and backward in the development of it. It was 25 years after the invention of printing before any printing was done in England. It was many years after that before the work of the English printers could compare with that done on the continent. The reason for this is to be found in the conditions of the country itself. Although the two great universities had long been in existence, Oxford dating back to 1167 and Cambridge to 1209, England as a whole was a backward country. In culture and the refinements of civilization, as well as in many more practical things, England was not so far advanced as the rest of Europe nor was it to be so for many years to come. England at this time was an agricultural and grazing country. A colony of Flemings had been brought over to start the cloth industry. There was still, nevertheless, a large export of wool to Flanders, which was there woven and sent back as cloth. The English nobles lived largely on their estates, looking after their tenants, hunting for diversion, and doing a little fighting occasionally when life became otherwise unbearably uninteresting. They were not an educated class and the peasantry were profoundly ignorant. The cities which, as always, depended upon manufacture and commerce were just beginning to grow, with the exception of some of the seaport towns which were already prosperous and wealthy. Not only was this general condition true, but there were special conditions which rendered the middle of the fifteenth century unfavorable to culture and to the introduction of a new invention auxiliary to culture. In 1450 England was shaken and horrified by the bloody insurrection of peasants, with its attendant outrages, known as Jack Cade’s Revolt. Scarcely had order been restored when a disputed succession to the crown plunged the country into the bloody civil war between the adherents of the Houses of York and Lancaster, known as the Wars of the Roses. This period of civil strife lasted for thirty years and affected the general welfare of England very seriously. It was especially marked by mortality among the noblest families in the realm, many of which were actually exterminated. Some time within this bloody half-century the art of printing was introduced into England. There is in existence a book printed in Oxford and dated on the title page 1468. Upon the existence of this book, and upon a somewhat doubtful legend, has been built a claim that English printing originated in Oxford. This claim, however, has practically ceased to be maintained. The legend appears to be baseless, and it has been generally concluded that the date is a misprint and that it should be 1478, an X having been dropped in writing the Roman date, a not uncommon error in publications of this period. Historians have now generally agreed that the introduction of printing in England is due to William Caxton, one of the most interesting figures in the whole annals of printing.

This book was released on 2018-01-22 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reformers of the Anglican Church, and Mr. Macaulay's History of England God raised up Apostles and prophets, and gave them power extra ordinary, as the gift of tongues, the gift of healing, the gift of government, &c., in place whereof, He hath given now bishops, archbishops, &c. Bishop Jewel was also one of the disputants on the Protestant side at a disputation in 1559, between the Papists and Protestants at Westminster, when the latter maintained against the former, who were anxious to lower the episcopal in favour of the papal dignity, that the Apostles' authority is derived upon after ages, and conveyed to the bishops, their successors. The eminent names of Scory, Grindal, Cox, Aylmer, Guest, Jewel, and Horn, may be mentioned as the Protestant disputants who maintained the above proposition. (see Note at the end.)

This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoir of the Life of the Right Reverend George Burgess, D.D: First Bishop of Maine A few words of introduction, besides those in Section I. Of this Memoir, are thought necessary. Three and a half years have elapsed since the death of Bishop Burgess, and yet only now is this Memorial Volume completed. Those interested in its preparation are not entirely in fault for this delay. It has been caused chiefly by failure in their efforts to secure as its author some friend, whose occupations would release sufficient time for its care ful writing, and whose relations to the Bishop, and other qualifications, would ensure a true delineation of his noble character and his saintly life.
