Book excerpt: This third volume of Mr. Crookshank's standard history includes the period between 1820 and 1859.... and summarizes the history of the Wesleyan Methodist organizations in Ireland, of the majority who (twenty years later) followed the example of English Methodism by rendering their societies independent of the sacramental ministrations of other churches, whether Anglican or Presbyterian, and the minority who still adhered to the earliest Methodist rule of regarding their preachers as only evangelistic laymen, whose duty it was to awaken and keep alive evangelical life in already established and fully organized churches. "A final and fruitless effort was made in 1820 to unite the two bodies," Joseph Butterworth, Esq., of London, the brother-in-law of Dr. Adam Clarke, having visited Ireland expressly for this purpose. This schism endured till after the disestablishment of the Irish Church. There being then no Established Church in Ireland, the raison d'ètre of the "Primitive Wesleyans" (the Irish Church Methodists of the "old way" were so called) ceased to exist; and, accordingly, they could do nothing so reasonable or so respectable as reunite themselves to the majority of Irish Wesleyan Methodists. This was happily effected ten years ago, a large sum of money being subscribed to cover the necessary expenses, and make certain compensations to Connexional funds. Throughout this volume the historical lines of the two bodies run side by side. The characteristics of this third volume are the same as of the volumes preceding-most painstaking research, minute accuracy as to matters of fact, careful writing, and a fine spirit. It is especially a book for a Methodist library, whether private or public. --The London Quarterly and Holborn Review, Volume 71

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If the first volume of this work was good, this, we think, is better. The interest attaching to Wesley's movements is lacking, but the material is fresher; it relates to subjects more entirely new and unfamiliar to 'the general or even to the Methodist reader. The work is very well done--clear, succinct, and well-written. The most characteristic points in the history of Irish Methodism are included within the scope of this volume. The separation, as to certain points, between English and Irish Methodism, after the death of Methodism, is here explained. Irish Methodism was identified, far more strictly than English Methodism ever was, with the English Church. In Ireland there was no such organized independence of the Church of England as English Methodism maintained in London and in Bristol. Irish Methodism included no Dissenters nor .any tendencies in the direction of Dissent. It was deeply Tory in Church and State. Hence when English Methodism separated itself from the sacraments of the Church of England after 1795, Irish Methodism refused to follow the example. Similarly, the new regulations by which an ecclesiastically defined status was in 1797 given to the laity of English Methodism were not accepted in Ireland. Irish Methodism, in fact, insisted on the privileges of "home rule." Mr. Crookshank lets us understand that to a certain extent this was the all but inevitable result of the special circumstances of Ireland in Church and State, though he evidently regrets that Ireland was so tardy in following the English example. Twenty years later, Ireland took the step which English Methodism took in 1795.... Many distinctions, and some more or less serious divergences, of the present day are the consequences of the initial divergences of ninety years ago. Nevertheless, all the time the English Conference has embraced in its general jurisdiction the Irish province of Methodism, and a due proportion of the "Legal Conference," the " Legal Hundred,' have always been Irish Ministers nominated by the Irish Sub-Conference. We say sub-conference, for affiliated conference would be an improper and misleading description. He who desires to understand these matters in their historical detail must study Mr. Crookshank's history.... The "Primitive Wesleyans," or "Clonites," were absorbed into the Wesleyan Methodist, or, as the Irish prefer to call it, the Methodist Church. These subjects, however, we must add, though of fundamental importance, occupy comparatively but a small part of this interesting volume. The histories of such men as Gideon Ouseley and as the founder of the Shillington family, and of such women as Mrs. Tighe, with many another less celebrated but not less worthy or useful, make up the tissue of the volume, which we warmly recommend to our readers.--The London Quarterly and Holborn Review, Volume 66

This book was released on 2018-06-04 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have read with much interest this first volume of Mr. Crookshank's history. The author's industry of research and competency as a narrator were already known from his former works. Till the work, of which this volume is only the first installment, is completed, it would be premature to attempt a review of it. We observe, however, one error relating to what is spoken of the "corporate status", of the Irish Conference in 1782, which is as quaint as it is characteristic -- not of the writer in particular, but of certain ideas which struggle for existence in the sister island. Even the British Conference had no "corporate status" or existence till 1784, and, when it was incorporated, Irish Methodism was folded in, together with British Methodism, under the jurisdiction of its Anglo-Irish -- or, perhaps we should say, British-Irish -- Legal Conference. --The London Quarterly and Holborn Review, Volume 64

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Methodism in Ireland, Vol. 1: Wesley and His Times Records of Christian Work "What said the past? A thousand spirits rushed To scan its records as they flitted by; And e'en as if a seraph's voice had hushed Each earth-born passion's wayward revelry, They looked with awe upon the hallowed scroll, Unfolding brightly to their inmost soul. "It spake of men, of holy men, who stood As angels 'mid the dreary waste around; Who sought to stem the wild and angry flood That spurned control and burst through every bound'; Of men who gloried in reproach and shame, And all things counted loss for Jesu's name. "And think ye, as they traced these annals o'er, And marked the path this suffering phalanx trod, No burning zeal for Him whoso name they bore Inflamed their hearts, their spirits raised to God? That no sweet songs of grateful love arose To Him who vanquished all their fathers' foes?" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "With this volume the publication of A History of the Methodist Church in Great Britain comes to its appointed end. The project of writing it was initiated by the Methodist Conference of 1953, and the lapse of time since then has made it possible to include at appropriate points the results of the continuing research into the origins and nature of Methodism; but 'the chance and changes of this mortal life', which are bound to impinge on the progress of so complex an enterprise, together with the heavy involvement of all the contributors in ecclesiastical, ecumenical and academic affairs, have made this period much longer than the General Editors would have wished." -- From the Preface

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This major new book represents the first serious study of Irish evangelicalism. The authors examine the social history of popular protestantism in Ulster from the Evangelical Revival in the mid-eighteenth century to the conflicts generated by proposals for Irish Home Rule at the end of the nineteenth century. Many of the central themes of the book are at the forefront of recent work on popular religion including the relationship between religion and national identity, the role of women in popular religion, the causes and consequences of religious revivalism, and the impact of social change on religious experience. The authors draw on a wide range of primary sources from the early eighteenth to the late nineteenth century. In addition, they display an impressive mastery of the wider literature on popular religion in the period.
