Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of Sir Robert Moray, Soldier, Statesman and Man of Science (1608-1673) His appointment as Lecturer in History in the University of Sheffield in January, 1914, realised his long cherished ambition to secure an academic post but when, eight months later, the war broke out, the path Of honour and duty was clear to him. With his usual conscientiousness, he refused a commission on the ground that he did not know one end Of a ri e from the other, and enlisted, in September, 1914, as a private soldier in A (university) Company Of the Sheffield University and City Battalion, afterwards the 12th (service) Battalion Of the York and Lancaster Regiment. He was no athlete, and to a man of his nervous and sensitive temperament, military duties were totally uncongenial. But his indomitable will power enabled him to overcome his aversion, and he found compensation in the friendships he formed among his comrades Of A company. In December, 1915, he was ordered to Egypt, Where, as the historian of the battalion notes, many of the members Of A company spent their scanty hours of leisure in learning Italian and reading Dante. When the battalion proceeded to France in the following March, Robertson was detained for five weeks in hospital at Marseilles. He rejoined his unit on the eve of the Battle Of the Somme, and fell with many of his comrades in the attack on 'serre on the Ist of July, 1916.

Download or read book Letters of Sir Robert Moray to the Earl of Kincardine 1657 73 written by David Stevenson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-12-05 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sir Robert Moray (1608-1673) was one of the most active of the twelve founding members of the Royal Society, and as a close friend of King Charles, was a key figure in obtaining the royal patronage that was crucial to its status and growth. Whilst not an active or original researcher, Moray's role as enthusiastic and widely read participant in, and inspirer of, the Society's activities, place him at the centre of the seventeenth-century British scientific scene. As well as being an active member of the Royal Society, Moray was a prolific letter writer, sending a steady stream of news and correspondence to his friend Alexander Bruce, Earl of Kincardine, whose ill-health often kept him away from events. Providing a complete modern edition of the letters written between 1657 and 1673, this collection offers a unique insight into the attitudes and aspirations of the early scientific community. Ranging widely across a broad range of subjects, including medicine, magnetism, horology, politics, current affairs, the coal and salt industries, fishing, freemasonry, literature, heraldry and symbolism, the letters display Moray's knowledge of a formidable range of subjects and authors. As well as being a lively example of the letter writers art, they are a rich source for anyone with an interest in early modern medical and scientific history, as well as those investigating the broader social and cultural milieu of Restoration society.

Download or read book The Secrets of Freemasonry written by Robert Lomas and published by Robinson. This book was released on 2011-09-01 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people are curious about the existence of secret societies which claim to hold arcane religious or esoteric knowledge and pass it down through the generations via selected adepts. Classic Masonic writers including William Preston, Robert Gould, JSM Ward, AE Waite and WL Wilmshurst have written about secret traditions connected to the Temple of Sion. Each has different ideas about how mystical knowledge came into Freemasonry. Some say that the Charter of Larmenius reveals an underground line of Knight Templar Grand Masters who survived down to the nineteenth century. All agree there is a Secret Lodge or House of Adepts who continue to teach "true" knowledge of the ancient mysteries and that The Craft transmits beliefs linked to the Earls of Rosslyn, the Knights Templar, and Lodge Mother Kilwinning. Masonic expert Robert Lomas has collected together this thread of belief from old Masonic writers and rewritten it in modern English to make the ideas accessible to modern readers.
