Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruined Abbeys of Great Britain "I humbly crave leave, before I advance any farther, publickly to profess myself to be a sincere, though very unworthy Member of the Church of England, and that I have as true and as hearty Affection for her Interest as perhaps any other Person whatsoever. And yet I cannot but here publickly declare that I think it would have been more happy for Her, as well as for the Nation in general had King Henry VIII. only reformed and not destroyed the Abbeys and other Religious Houses. Monastic Institution is very ancient, and it had been very laudable had he reduced the Manner of Worship to the Primitive Form."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruined Abbeys of Yorkshire In revising these sheets for a second edition I have been, once more, largely indebted to the kindness of antiquarian friends. In particular I have been allowed to anticipate in some points a forthcoming work on Fountains Abbey by Mr. Micklethwaite and Mr. W. S. John Hope. Within the last seven years much fresh light has been thrown on monastic antiquities by minute examination and patient inquiry, and the impossibility of dealing exhaustively with even a section of this subject in anything short of a large and technical work has become proportionately evident.

Book Scotland s Ruined Abbeys  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Scotland s Ruined Abbeys Classic Reprint written by Howard Crosby Butler and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Scotland's Ruined Abbeys The mediaeval architecture of Scotland has been amply treated in books of more or less scientific character. Accurate descriptions of every historic edifice in the ancient realm can be found, and historical sketches are not lacking. But the material at hand dealing with this subject exists only in a form too bulky for general use. The pamphlets, on the other hand, which are to be had at the site of many of these ruins, are often too superficial and sometimes incorrect and not suited to the purpose of more deeply interested persons, while both classes have ignored the romantic interest which centres about these places from the roles they play in the poetry and fiction for which Scotland has long been so famous. It is the purpose of this book to place in convenient form, at the disposal of interested travellers among the ruins of North Britain, and of all to whom these ancient buildings are an object of pleasant memory, an accurate, though necessarily brief, history of each of the more important abbeys, with a careful description of its structure in the light of the most recent study and criticism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ruins of Fountains Abbey It was this command to build monasteries in remote districts which made the Cistercian monks so famous for agriculture. They had to cultivate the soil or die of hunger, and thus became excellent farmers.
