Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The English Church in the Middle Ages This book is intended to illustrate the relations of the English Church with the papacy and with the English State down to the revolt of Wyclif against the abuses which had gathered round the ecclesiastical system of the Middle Ages, and the Great Schism in the papacy which materially offected the ideas of the whole of Western Christendom. It was thought expedient to deal with these subjects in a narrative form, and some gaps have therefore had to be filled up, and some links supplied. This has been done as far as possible by notices of mutters which bear on the moral condition of the Church, and sere to show how far it was qualified at various periods to be the example and instructor of the nation. No attempt, however, has Ix en made to write a complete history on a small scale, and I have designedly passed by many points, in themselves of interest and importance, in order to give as much space as might be to my proper subjects.

Download or read book The Early and Middle Ages of England Classic Reprint written by Charles Henry Pearson and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 698 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early and Middle Ages of England In the present volume I have tried to give the last results of enquiry into the early history of England. Perhaps no period has been more profoundly studied, or less generally understood. The true explanation of this apparent anomaly is, I believe, that the great works of Sir F. Palgrave, Mr. Kemble, and their followers, have suffered in popular estimation from the elaborate treatment and profuse illustration which make their writings invaluable to scholars. I have condensed the history of twelve hundred years into a single volume, with a view to the large class who want time or inclination to pursue English history as an exclusive study. I think, too, that the labours of antiquarians, essayists, and philologists require from time to time to be reduced to order, for the mere purpose of comparison. An imperfect, even a false, theory of the connection and interdependence of events, is better than none at all. Without regard to the powers of arrangement, and vivid narrative style that make M. Thierry's "Conquest of England" a work of genius, I am sure the theory of races which it developes, however unsound it may be in its principles and application, has had results of the last importance in stimulating enquiry.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of England During the Early and Middle Ages, Vol. 2 The student will perceive at a glance, that I have confined myself exclusively to the political side of history. In the chapter on the English Church, for in stance, I have not attempted to sketch the variations of religious thought, or even to appropriate the labours, by which I have tried to profit, of Professor Brewer and Professor Stubbs, on the inner life of the great religious orders. It is necessary to my plan that I should treat such matters only in their results on secular society and those who have leisure and inclination for fuller re searches can easily refer to the sources I have indicated. It is difficult to be quite consistent in these matters, but, at the hazard of occasional meagreness, I have thought it better to confine myself to a single subject.

Download or read book Medieval Europe written by Charles Bémont and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medieval Europe: From 395 to 1270 The text-book which is here by permission presented in an English dress is by two of the most distinguished of the modern school of French historians. It is remarkable among text-books on this diflicult period for its great sim plicity of statement, and for the fulness with which it treats of t0pics not usually taken up in detail, notably of the medieval church. Of their purpose in the book the authors say in their introduction: We have attempted to give to this volume a certain unity, not to make a simple chronological enumeration of events, but to group the de tails around the more important facts - the formation of the feudal system in succession to the Germanic inva sions, the development of the Catholic Church, the strife of Christian Europe against the Mussulman Orient, the struggle between the Papacy and the Empire leading to the fall of the German power, the formation of strong monarchies in France and in England. We have in par ticular given a large place to the role and to the history of the Church which dominates all this period, and which has been ordinarily so neglected in our schoolbooks, and have sought to make clear how France obtained in the thirteenth century a sort of political and intellectual hegemony in Europe. We hope those who read will under stand what were the great ideas and directive tendencies which determined the historical evolution of the Middle Ages. We have always kept in mind in writing the con elusion to which we were advancing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book An Historical Sketch of the Christian Church During the Middle Ages Classic Reprint written by Samuel M. Janney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-14 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Historical Sketch of the Christian Church During the Middle Ages The following work was begun with a view to give a brief History of the Waldenses, and was afterwards ex tended by introducing sketches of the history and doctrines of other dissenters from the Greek and Roman Churches, who appeared previous to the Reformation. The writer does not profess to give a regular Ecclesias tical History, but merely sketches of some events which had an important bearing upon the progress or declension of Christian principles. It will be perceived that the Church of Christ is here viewed in a very different light from that in which it has been presented by some historians;-its vitality depends, not upon the form of its organization, the creed it has adopted, or the ceremonies it employs; but rather upon the indwell ing of the Spirit of Christ, and the manifestation of that Spirit by wor ks of charity and love. The highest evidence we can give of our love to God, is by-loving our fellow-men and laboring or suffering for their good.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Leading Events in the History of the Church, Vol. 2: The Early Middle Ages The great Teutonic, Gothic, or Germanic branch of the human race which, during the fifth and sixth centuries, overran Europe was made up of several distinct peoples. Little by little they divided among them the broad Roman Empire, but not by any friendly arrangement; each tribe seized what it could, and kept possession by force of arms, unless driven off by some more powerful new-comers. As time went on, the different European nations began to be formed, and it is possible to say to which of the tribes each owes its origin, though it must not be thought that the countries had the same boundaries or the same names as they have now, or that the people of to-day are the direct descendants of these old Gothic tribes alone.
