Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Account of the Worshipful Company of Skinners of London: Being the Guild or Fraternity of Corpus Christi The following pages have grown out of a Paper which was read at a Meeting of the London and Middlesex Archaeological Society, held at Skinners' Hall, on the 28th April, 1874. It was afterwards published in the Transactions of the Society, with considerable additions, and privately distributed, principally among members of the Court of the Skinners' Company. It is now out of print. In response to requests of many friends that an enlarged and revised edition should be prepared, it seemed to me desirable to improve upon my original publication by adding extracts from the old Court Books and the Renter Wardens' accounts of the 16th and 17th centuries, and to supplement the early memorials of the Skinners' Company (which form the greater part of the volume) with some account of the Company's latter-day work, in connection chiefly with education. I have much pleasure in acknowledging my obligation to the Court of the Company for assisting in the publication of the book, and in expressing my sincere and hearty thanks to all who have individually taken part in its compilation. Among my colleagues on the Court I wish to mention the present Master of the Company, Mr. John Poland F.R.C.S., and Mr. H. A. Wix, L.L.B., Mr. L. B. Sebastian, B.C.L., M.A., His Honour Judge Masterman, D.C.L., and Mr. C. H. Dorman, Past Masters. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Romance and Its Contexts in Fifteenth century England

Download or read book Romance and Its Contexts in Fifteenth century England written by Raluca L. Radulescu and published by Boydell & Brewer Ltd. This book was released on 2013 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although the anonymous pious Middle English romances and Sir Thomas Malory's 'Morte Darthur' have rarely been studied in relation to each other, they in fact share at least two thematic concerns, vocabularies of suffering and genealogical concerns, as this book demonstrates. By examining a broad cultural and political framework stretching from Richard II's deposition to the end of the Wars of the Roses through the prism of piety, politics and penitence, the author draws attention to the specific circumstances in which Sir Isumbras, Sir Gowther, Roberd of Cisely, Henry Lovelich's 'History of the Holy Grail' and Malory's 'Morte' were read in fifteenth-century England. In the case of the pious romances this implies a study of their reception long after their original composition or translation centuries earlier; in Lovelich's case, an examination of metropolitan culture leads to an opening of the discussion to French romance models as well as English chronicle writing.

Download or read book Lydgate Matters written by L. Cooper and published by Springer. This book was released on 2007-12-25 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection re-evaluates the work of fifteenth-century poet John Lydgate in light of medieval material culture. Top scholars in the field unite here with critical newcomers to offer fresh perspectives on the function of poetry on the cusp of the modern age, and in particular on the way that poetry speaks to the heightened relevance of material goods and possessions to the formation of late medieval identity and literary taste. Advancing in provocative ways the emerging fields of fifteenth-century literary and cultural study, the volume as a whole explores the role of the aesthetic not only in late medieval society but also in our own.

Book Plantation and Civility in the North Atlantic World

Download or read book Plantation and Civility in the North Atlantic World written by Aonghas MacCoinnich and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 598 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The settlement of the Hebrides is usually considered in terms of the state formation agenda. Yet the area was subject to successive attempts at plantation, largely overlooked in historical narrative. Aonghas MacCoinnich’s study, Plantation and Civility, explores these plantations against the background of a Lowland-Highland cultural divide and competition over resources. The Macleod of Lewis clan, ‘uncivil’, Gaelic Highlanders, were dispossessed by the Lowland, ‘civil,’ Fife Adventurers, 1598-1609. Despite the collapse of this Lowland Plantation, however, the recourse to the Mackenzie clan, often thought a failure of policy, was instead a pragmatic response to an intractable problem. The Mackenzies also pursued the civility agenda treating with Dutch partners and fending off their English rivals in order to develop their plantation.
