Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Life of William of Wykeham The Schoolboy and Architect There are probably few localities in England round which still lingers so much of Catholic association, or which - externally at least - preserve so many memorials of the ages of faith, as the city of Winchester. Of all our cathedral towns it may indeed be said, that they stand like so many monuments, continually suggestive of the power and spirit of our old religion; but of none is this more true than of Winchester, which still retains the wrecks of so many ancient institutions of piety, and where neither the decay of faith nor the lapse of time has been able entirely to efface the memory of their founders. The history of the city, moreover, is closely connected with that of the kingdom; we might even say that it was there that our national existence began, in that great assembly of nobles and clergy summoned by Egbert after the submission of the other states of the Heptarchy, which, as some writers tell us, decreed that the whole island should be called England, and that thenceforth all its inhabitants should be known as Englishmen. There, in the old monastery of Winchester, was nursed the great St. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Life of William of Wykeham: Sometime Bishop of Winchester and Lord High Chancellor of England; With Appendices I owe the Wykehamical public some apology for the present attempt to write the life of their Founder, seeing that this has been done many times in the five centuries which have elapsed since he lived. But many as have been his biographers, there is but one life of Wykeham which is at the same time exhaustive and critical, that by Dr. Robert Lowth, afterwards bishop of London. This formed the first real epoch in the knowledge of the subject, and really left nothing to be desired. But this appeared more than a hundred years ago; and meanwhile our knowledge of the general history of England, with which Wykeham had such special relations, has grown rapidly by the publication of such authorities as are contained in the Series published by the Master of the Rolls, and of such critical histories as that of the Constitution by bishop Stubbs, of Chester: a work to which I am deeply indebted, more than, I fear, would appear to be the case by the frequency of the references to his volumes in my notes.
