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.

This book was released on 2018-04-18 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18th century was a wealth of knowledge, exploration and rapidly growing technology and expanding record-keeping made possible by advances in the printing press. In its determination to preserve the century of revolution, Gale initiated a revolution of its own: digitization of epic proportions to preserve these invaluable works in the largest archive of its kind. Now for the first time these high-quality digital copies of original 18th century manuscripts are available in print, making them highly accessible to libraries, undergraduate students, and independent scholars. The Age of Enlightenment profoundly enriched religious and philosophical understanding and continues to influence present-day thinking. Works collected here include masterpieces by David Hume, Immanuel Kant, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau, as well as religious sermons and moral debates on the issues of the day, such as the slave trade. The Age of Reason saw conflict between Protestantism and Catholicism transformed into one between faith and logic -- a debate that continues in the twenty-first century. ++++ The below data was compiled from various identification fields in the bibliographic record of this title.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Three Chancellors: Or Sketches of the Lives of William of Wykeham, William of Waynflete, and Sir Thomas More We hope that in the following sketches we have shown that they meant much, and that education in the minds of these great men was understood in even a larger sense than it has been in later times. With them it was considered as the train ing of the entire being, as the perfect formation and develop ment of the intellectual, moral, and spiritual nature of man. Their aim was to introduce a system which should elevate every part of that nature to its highest Christian ideal; and whilst all things were kept in harmony and proportion under the control and governance of the faith, Science and Piety went hand in hand, and Learning and Humility were made to embrace one another. The lives of these great Prelates are useful also as affording evidence of the manner in which the ecclesiastical revenues were expended by them, and, we may add, by hun dreds like them. How constantly do we hear of the overgrown riches of the Church in the ages immediately preceding the Reformation! How little are we ever told of the objects on which those riches were lavished, and that, moreover, during the life time of their owners! Yet when we come to know the real extent of their munificence, we are forced to own, that in this point at least they have found no imitators in later centuries. Not without some purpose, however, have their memorials, as we fondly trust, been hitherto preserved among us. The stranger who wanders through the desecrated aisles of Winches ter passes from the chantry of Wykeham to that of Fox, and a little further on finds himself standing between the tombs of Waynflete and Beaufort. Eloquent are the lessons which they preach to his heart; and as he gazes at the marvellous beauty of those rich and canopied chapels, the memories of Winton, and Corpus Christi, and Magdalen, and St. Cross rush upon his soul, filling him with great thoughts of charity to man, and boundless generosity to God.
