Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Manuscripts of Westminster Abbey In the chapter house at Westminster there is exhibited a document in which Abbot Gervase and the Convent assign a sum of eight shillings a year from the tithes of Rothing to the Precentor, for the repair of books in the library and for other requirements of his office. Gervasius abbas beati Petri Westmonasteriensis totusque conventus ejusdem ecclesiae omnibus hominibus suis tam praesentibus quam futuris salutem. Manifestum vobis eri volumus nos amore dei pro reparandis libris armarii, et pro ceteris negotiis quae ad cantoris nostri pertinent oicium, communi assensu et consilio concessisse et dedisse cantariae viii. solidos de decima de Roinges quam tenet Aluricus presbiter: et his terminis, ad annuntiationem sanctae Mariae iiii. solidos, et ad festivitatem Sancti Petri ad vincula iiii. solidos. Quapropter volumus et praecipimus ut cantor ecclesiae beati Petri VVestmonasteriensis, quisquis ille fuerit, praedictos habeat solidos bene et honorice et in pace, ne quis eum super hac nostra donatione et praedicta elemosina ullo modo inquietetl. Gervase was Abbot from 1140 to about 1159. Accordingly we see that in the twelfth century the books of the monastery at Westminster were under the charge of the Precentor. This was in accordance with the Constitutions drawn up for all Benedictine monasteries in England by Lanfranc at the end of the eleventh century. In his chapter De Oantore we read: De universis monasterii libris curam gerat, et eos in custodia sua habeat, si ejus studii et scientiae sit ut eorum custodia ei commendari debeatz.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive and authoritative history that explores the significance of one of the most famous buildings and institutions in England Westminster Abbey was one of the most powerful churches in Catholic Christendom before transforming into a Protestant icon of British national and imperial identity. Celebrating the 750th anniversary of the consecration of the current Abbey church building, this book features engaging essays by a group of distinguished scholars that focus on different, yet often overlapping, aspects of the Abbey's history: its architecture and monuments; its Catholic monks and Protestant clergy; its place in religious and political revolutions; its relationship to the monarchy and royal court; its estates and educational endeavours; its congregations; and its tourists. Clearly written and wide-ranging in scope, this generously illustrated volume is a fascinating exploration of Westminster Abbey's thousand-year history and its meaning, significance, and impact within society both in Britain and beyond.

Download or read book Showing of Love written by Julian (of Norwich) and published by Liturgical Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Showing of Love, Julia Bolton Holloway provides a complete translation of Julian of Norwich's ground-breaking text, opening windows of insight into her medieval world. As a female mystic and theologian who was uniquely recognized (in a time when most women were not) for her holiness, Julian of Norwich also came to be known as a catechist, prophet, and spiritual director. Showing of Love records her own healing encounter with divine love and has for many centuries been a source of healing and inspiration for others. Readers of Julian's work find her belief that God sits in our soul as a fair city to be of profound value. That city is every city, Mary its queen, Christ its king. Julian offers these layers in rich text and variant readings. Julian dedicated years of her life to shaping Showing of Love, at the end rewriting it to preserve it from censorship. The anchoress lived in St. Julian's churchyard in Norwich. Her text was saved from destruction by nuns in Brigittine and Benedictine convents, first in England, then in exile after the Reformation. Julian's writings were later published by the Benedictines in 1670. They reveal her strong links with Benedict that continue to have lasting value for readers today. Includes two-color ink on inside pages. Julia Bolton Holloway, PhD, is a vowed hermit living in Florence, Italy. She has published seventeen other works on important historical figures.
