Book A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth  Classic Reprint

Download or read book A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth Classic Reprint written by T. Fairman Ordish and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-16 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of London in the Reign of Queen Elizabeth Under the tide "Shakespeare's London" I delivered a lecture in 1886, and again in the winter of 1887. Another lecture on the same subject, delivered at the Working Men's College in 1893, I entitled "Elizabethan London," partly because, in this lecture, I drew a contrast between Victorian London and the London of Shakespeare, but chiefly for the reason that I was then meditating the book which now sees the light, and reserved the title for this occasion. The book has grown out of these lectures, and it covers all the ground specially emphasised in each of them. Its scope may be readily indicated by the themes of the lectures. In the first, I dealt chiefly with the theatres in Shakespeare's London. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Intolerance in the Reign of Elizabeth

Download or read book Intolerance in the Reign of Elizabeth written by Arthur Jay Klein and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-15 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Intolerance in the Reign of Elizabeth: Queen of England IN the preparation of this study the writer has attempted to make the text interesting and intelligible to the average reader. He has, therefore, relegated the dry bones and paraphernalia of study to the footnotes and a bibliograph ical appendix. The material for the reign of Elizabeth is so voluminous, however, that footnotes and bibliography are not complete. The footnotes do not represent all the material upon which statements in the text are based, but the writer believes that the authorities given amply sup port the opinions and conclusions there expressed.

Book Parish Life Under Queen Elizabeth

Download or read book Parish Life Under Queen Elizabeth written by W. P. M. Kennedy and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-12-23 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Parish Life Under Queen Elizabeth: An Introductory Study My object in this little book is to present a broad picture of Elizabethan life. I have called it an Introductory Study, as it would require a larger volume than this to deal with the details of such a complicated subject. The book is intended for the general reader, who may wish to know some thing of how the Elizabethan Reformation affected the every-day life of the people. As there is so much in dispute, I have thought it best to add references, and these may be of some aid to students of the period: In addition, they will serve to give some support to my posit'wns and to clear the air amid the dust of controversy. I have done my best to eliminate prejudice. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book The Reign of Elizabeth  1558 1603

Download or read book The Reign of Elizabeth 1558 1603 written by Prof. J. B. Black and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1936, this is a classic account of the reign of Elizabeth Tudor during the Sixteenth Century. The book provides a comprehensive account of the political, economic, social, literary, artistic, scientific, and cultural features that made it one of the richest periods in British history. It ranges from the Religious Settlement, England's relations with France, and the succession to Catholic and Puritan challenges to the establishment, the execution of Mary Stuart, the Armada, the Irish problem, and the later years of Elizabeth’s reign. “Professor Black brought to his task the knowledge and experience of a scholar who is a specialist in the period, the balance and wisdom of a philosophical mind, and the skill of a distinguished stylist. Need one be surprised that his book is not merely a first-rate text-book but a work which any serious-minded person will read with abounding pleasure.”—Sunday Times “This volume is one of those books which are so packed with information that its value can only be discovered in use. For those about to make a serious study of a difficult and complex period of English history it should be a most useful introduction, for Professor Black has the rare virtue of being impartial, even on the most controversial topics....The best advanced text-book of the Elizabethan period that has yet been written.”—Listener “Professor Black’s book is a solid achievement of sound and accurate scholarship, whose clearness of thought and balance in judgement make it a pleasure to read.”—Oxford Magazine “A most moderate, well-balanced, and ably written work, which should form a useful corrective to the many biased and unscholarly publications associated with the period it covers.”—Glasgow Herald

Book The Reign of Elizabeth  Vol  3  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Reign of Elizabeth Vol 3 Classic Reprint written by James Anthony Froude and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Reign of Elizabeth, Vol. 3 Twice already, during the progress of the Reformation, the advance of the new opinions had been checked by reaction. The Act of Supremacy and the dissolution of the monasteries had been followed by the fall of Cromwell, the Six Articles, and the burning of Barnes and Lambert. The anarchy, social and spiritual, which had broken loose under Edward VI., was brought to an end by the hard and heavy hand of Mary and Pole. From the moment that Elizabeth declared against the pope it was inevitable that, sooner or later, the Catholics would make a third effort to recover their ascendancy. In number they still exceeded the Reformers, although in energy and enthusiasm the Reformers had a corresponding advantage. The strength of the two parties, to outward appearance, was nearly equal, and neither one nor the other had become as yet accustomed to the practical working of the formulas of the establishment, where each might hold their own opinions under the show of uniformity. The statesman of the nineteenth century, with the conditions before him which presented themselves to the council of Elizabeth, - would have left religion to the individual conscience would have insisted only on general submission to the laws, and within that limit would have permitted Catholic and Protestant the free use of their own chapels and services. But this solution of the problem has been made possible only by a gradual change of sentiment. Before a government can act on principles of toleration, the people to be governed must have become themselves at least outwardly tolerant. The attempt was made in France without this necessary preparation, and the result was universal disorder, interminable outbursts, and civil war, and when circumstances were specially unfavourable, those monstrous massacres, which have made the reigns of Catherine de Medici and her sons so infamous in history.

Download or read book The Age of Elizabeth Classic Reprint written by Mandell Creighton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-16 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Age of Elizabeth Some men were content with the 'old state of things, either from interested motives, or from real love' for that M form of worship in which they had been born meaning and bred. Others wished to, keep the old system but make a few alterations in it: they believed the government of the Church to be the right one, and to be, moreover, quite necessary, though they thought that it had been carelessly carried on, and needed improvement. Others declared that they could find no authority' in Scripture for the existing system of the Church, and wished to'change it altogether. Gradually men had to range themselves on one side or the other. Either they thought that in and through the Church only did man have communion with God; or they thought that Grid would receive any man who faithfully turned to Him. This was the broad distinction between the two parties we shall call Catholics and Protestants. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
