While the melding and inclusion of both Mediterranean and Teutonic elements in Anglo-Saxon poetry has been the subject of extensive research, until relatively recently, scholars have attributed this dynamic largely to a central manipulation of the Christian message by the Roman church with a view towards making it compatible with the societal mores of the (relatively) newly convt..rted Northern Europeans.

  • Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Illinois Digital Environment for Access to Learning and Scholarship Repository APOSTOLIC DISCOURSE AND CHRISTIAN IDENTITY IN ANGLO-SAXON LITERATURE BY SHANNON NYCOLE GODLOVE DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2010 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Charles D. Wright, Chair Associate Professor Renée Trilling Associate Professor Robert W. Barrett Professor Emerita Marianne Kalinke ii ABSTRACT “Apostolic Discourse and Christian Identity in Anglo-Saxon Literature” argues that Anglo-Saxon religious writers used traditions about the apostles to inspire and interpret their peoples’ own missionary ambitions abroad, to represent England itself as a center of religious authority, and to articulate a particular conception of inspired authorship. This study traces the formation and adaptation of apostolic discourse (a shared but evolving language based on biblical and literary models) through a series of Latin and vernacular works including the letters of Boniface, the early vitae of the Anglo- Saxon missionary saints, the Old English poetry of Cynewulf, and the anonymous poem Andreas. This study demonstrates how Anglo-Saxon authors appropriated the experiences and the authority of the apostles to fashion Christian identities for members of the emerging English church in the seventh and eighth centuries, and for vernacular religious poets and their readers in the later Anglo-Saxon period. iii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am indebted to many people for their help and support throughout the duration of this dissertation project.

  • Lancelot Andrewes' Life And
    LANCELOT ANDREWES’ LIFE AND MINISTRY A FOUNDATION FOR TRADITIONAL ANGLICAN PRIESTS by Orville Michael Cawthon, Sr. B.B.A, Georgia State University, 1983 A THESIS Submitted to the Faculty in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Religion at Reformed Theological Seminary Charlotte, North Carolina September 2014 Accepted: Thesis Advisor ______________________________ Donald Fortson, Ph.D. ii ABSTRACT Lancelot Andrewes Life and Ministry A Foundation for Traditional Anglican Priest Orville Michael Cawthon, Sr. This thesis explores Lancelot Andrewes’ life and ministry as an example for Traditional Anglican Priests. An introduction and biography are presented, followed by an examination of his prayer life, doctrine, and liturgy. His prayer life is examined through his private prayers, via tract number 88 of the Tracts for the Times, daily prayers, and sermons. The second evaluation made is of Andrewes’ doctrine. A review of his catechism is followed by his teaching of the Commandments. His sermons are examined and demonstrate his desire and ability to link the Old Testament and the New Testament through Jesus Christ and a review is made through examining his sermons for the different church seasons. Thirdly, Andrewes’ liturgy is the focus, as many of his practices are still used today within the Traditional Anglican Church. His desire for holiness and beauty as reflected in his Liturgy is seen, as well as his position on what should be allowed in the worship of God. His love for the Eucharist is examined as he defends the English Church’s use of the term “Real Presence” in its relationship to the body and blood of Christ in the Eucharist.

  • Chapter Five the Physically Impaired
    Chapter Five The Physically Impaired !" : aa! Fig I: Marc Quinn, `Alison Lapper Pregnant' (photograph: Matthew Phillpott, 16/10/05) Responding to Marc Quinn's `Alison Lapper Pregnant', erected on the Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in September 2005, Robin Simon, editor of the British Art Journal, said I think it's horrible. Not because of the subject matter, I hasten to add. I think is brave, it's she very very wonderful. But just a rather repellent artefact - very 241 shiny, slimy surface, machine-made, much too big... it's just rather ugly. Not because of her, I hasten to add. It's just a bad piece of sculpture. Simon expressed his dislike of the sculpture in uncompromising tones, giving his professional judgement on Radio 4's `Today' programme. But why did he feel the need twice to `hastento add' that his criticisms of the sculpture were not due to its subject, Alison Lapper and, almost in the way of a further apology, describe her as `very brave. very wonderful'? And why did a member of the public, on observing the statue, qualify her assessment of it as `grotesque' with the words `[t]his is not meant as a slur on 2 Alison herself and yet another claim that she did not like to use the word 'disabled' in reference to Alison Lapper `because I think everyone is normal, and everyone's good at 3 something'? At the time of its unveiling, Quinn's sculpture caused something of a furore, with opinions split between those who welcomed it as a `very powerful sculpture 5 of a disabled woman'4 and those who dismissed it as `all message and no art'.

  • THE STORY of an ENGLISH SAINT's CULT: an ANALYSIS of the INFLUENCE of ST ÆTHELTHRYTH of ELY, C.670
    THE STORY OF AN ENGLISH SAINT’S CULT: AN ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF ST ÆTHELTHRYTH OF ELY, c.670 – c.1540 by IAN DAVID STYLER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of History School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law University of Birmingham August 2019 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation. Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged.

ABSTRACT This thesis charts the history of the cult of St Æthelthryth of Ely, arguing that its longevity and geographical extent were determined by the malleability of her character, as narrated within the hagiographical texts of her life, and the continued promotion of her shrine by parties interested in utilising her saintly power to achieve their goals. Arranged chronologically and divided into five distinct periods, the thesis demonstrates that this symbiotic relationship was key in maintaining and elongating the life of the cult. Employing digital humanities tools to analyse textual, archaeological, material, cartographic, and documentary sources covering the cult’s eight-hundred-year history, the study charts its development firstly within East Anglia, and subsequently across the whole country, and internationally.

  • AN INTRODUCTORY HISTORY of the ORTHODOX CHURCH in BRITAIN and IRELAND from Its Beginnings to the Eleventh Century
    1 AN INTRODUCTORY HISTORY OF THE ORTHODOX CHURCH IN BRITAIN AND IRELAND From its Beginnings to the Eleventh Century By Aidan Hart PART I (until 600 AD) “In all parts of Spain, among the diverse nations of the Gauls, in regions of the Britons beyond Roman sway but subjected to Christ... the name of Christ now reigns.” (Tertullian in “Adversus Judaeos” Ch. 7, circa 200 AD) Introduction There is a saying on Mount Athos that it is not where we live that saves us but the way we live. This is a play on the Greek words topos and tropos . One could add that neither is it when we live that saves us. And yet on reading the lives of saints who lived in other epochs and other lands it is easy to feel that it is impossible for us, in our circumstances, to approach their level of repentance and humility. This is one reason why many British and other English speakers are being attracted to the saints of the British Isles: although these saints lived over a millennium ago they lived on our own soil, or at least on that of our ancestors. It is as though these local saints are not only supporting us from heaven, but are also with us here, on the same soil where they once struggled in the spiritual life. How eagerly the saints of Britain must await our prayers that the land in which they so mightily laboured should again become a garden of virtue! It is difficult to be inspired by saints about whom we know little.

  • The Preces Privatae of Lancelot Andrewes, Bishop of Winchester
    THE PRECES PRIVATAE OF LANCELOT ANDREWES BISHOP OF WINCHESTER TRANSLATED WITH AN INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY F. E. BRIGHTMAN, M.A. FELLOW OF S. MAKY MAGDALEN COLLEGE, OXFORD CANON OF LINCOLN METHUEN & CO. 36 ESSEX STREET W.C. LONDON 1903 30857 PREFACE A DESCRIPTION of the character of the present volume will perhaps at the same time serve as an excuse for a new version of an old and famous book. 1. The text which has been translated is that of the Oxford edition of 1675, corrected and supplemented by the MSS., especially the Laudian MS., which contains a considerable mass of Hebrew matter that was not represented in the edition of 1675, an&amp;lt;^ *he Harleian MS., the contents of which are almost wholly outside the scope of the edition of 1675 and have never as a whole appeared in English. To this is added the matter recovered from Stokes Verus Christianus, which, while in many cases it represents only a preliminary form of what is contained in the other sources, yet includes some new passages, and throughout offers points of interest which seem worth preserving. The sources of 1 the text are indicated in detail on the inner margin. 2. In the translation the aim has been, where the original is drawn from the Septuagint or the Vulgate, to use the language of the Authorised Version and of the Psalter of the Book of Common Prayer, except in cases in which for any reason correction seemed necessary or desirable, or his Andrewes elsewhere supplies a corrected rendering of own.

  • ABSTRACT Pulpit Rhetoric and the Conscience: the Gunpowder Plot
    ABSTRACT Pulpit Rhetoric and the Conscience: The Gunpowder Plot Sermons of Lancelot Andrewes Neil Barclay Johnston, Ph.D. Mentor: Robert H. Ray, Ph.D. Sermons were the dominant form of literature during the seventeenth century; thus, their role in shaping many aspects of England’s literary, social, and political history warrants more thorough exploration. Too often, in an effort to highlight dynamics of power struggles at various political and ideological levels, we tend to ignore the power of the individual conscience to rise above the immediate context’s power struggle. Lancelot Andrewes’ sermons were among the most frequently printed in that period, and this study opens the door of exploration slightly wider by considering the role that conscience plays in a portion of his state-mandated sermons. The modern era’s relationship to the conscience differs considerably from the Renaissance and the Reformation understanding, and thus, I provide an overview of how the conscience worked in that period. Further, to provide a context for the development of his conscience, two other aspects of his work are examined: his treatment of the Decalogue, and his private devotions. These two works display both a public and a private expression of Andrewes’ convictions, illuminating crucial commitments to theological and moral tenets. This significant background material supplies what is lacking in the sermons themselves: historical antecedents for the apparent exaltation of the king and the state ground these expressions in gratitude and obedience to God. Moreover, as is seen from the shift in emphasis that Andrewes’ rhetoric takes in these ten sermons, they are much more than anti-Catholic and pro-English propaganda.
