2009 Lecture
2009 THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURE The Quaking Meeting Transforming our selves, our meetings and the more-than-human world Helen Gould In Meeting for Worship we may sense a mystical communion with God through each other. This is the gift of the ‘gathered meeting’. THE JAMES BACKHOUSE LECTURES The lectures were instituted by Australia Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) on its establishment in 1964. They are named after James Backhouse who, with his companion, George Washington Walker, visited Australia from 1832 to 1838. They travelled widely, but spent most of their time in Tasmania. It was through their visit that Quaker Meetings were first established in Australia. Coming to Australia under a concern for the conditions of convicts, the two men had access to people with authority in the young colonies, and with influence in Britain, both in Parliament and in the social reform movement. In meticulous reports and personal letters, they made practical suggestions and urged legislative action on penal reform, on the rum trade, and on land rights and the treatment of Aborigines. James Backhouse was a general naturalist and a botanist. He made careful observations and published full accounts of what he saw, in addition to encouraging Friends in the colonies and following the deep concern that had brought him to Australia. Australian Friends hope that this series of Lectures will bring fresh insights into the Truth, and speak to the needs and aspirations of Australian Quakerism. This particular lecture was delivered at the Australian National University, Canberra, on Monday, 5 January 2009, during the annual meeting of the Society. -
Of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014
Index of Pendle Hill Pamphlets 1934 - 2014 Introduction Many remarkable gifts have come out of the Pendle Hill experience, but few are more remarkable than the series of Pendle Hill Pamphlets, ongoing now for eighty years. Conceived as the published equivalent of messages spoken in a Friends’ meeting for worship, these brief essays reflect the range and vision of unprogrammed Quaker religious thought and practice. Among the authors represented here are a handful of famous names, such as Toynbee, Weil, and Buber. But for the most part the pamphlets are the works of a “cloud of witnesses” distinguished primarily for their spirit and expressiveness. And while there are recurring themes among them (peace, worship, art), the four hundred-plus titles cover almost as many topics. Over the years, many readers have commented on the richness of spiritual resources and information represented in these essays. Many have also asked for help in using them in study, reflection, and research. This index is designed to answer that need. It includes four sections: • Section I is an annotated list of the pamphlets. This list is in numerical order, and the pamphlet number serves as a cross-reference tool throughout the index. Each listing includes title, author, date of publication (in parentheses), a brief summary of the essay, and its subjects. • Section II groups the pamphlets alphabetically by author. • Section III lists the pamphlets alphabetically by title. • Section IV offers a subject index for the pamphlets. Index by Number Cooperation and Coercion as Methods of Social Change Nicholson, Vincent De Witt (1934) 1 The author asks if the consequences of differences and conflicts can be creative instead of devastating. -

Henry Larcom Abbot 1831-1927
NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS VOLUME XIII FIRST MEMOIR BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIR OF HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARLES GREELEY ABBOT PRESENTED TO THE ACADEMY AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, 1929 HENRY LARCOM ABBOT 1831-1927 BY CHARGES GREKLEY ABBOT Chapter I Ancestry Henry Larcom Abbot, Brigadier General, Corps of Engi- neers, U. S. Army, member of the National Academy of Sciences, was born at Beverly, Essex County, Massachusetts, August 13, 1831. He died on October 1, 1927, at Cambridge, Massachusetts, aged 96 years. He traced his descent in the male line from George Abbot, said to be a native of Yorkshire, England, who settled at Andover, Massachusetts, in the year 1642. Through early intermarriage, this line is closely con- nected with that of the descendants of George Abbott of Row- ley, Essex County, Massachusetts. The Abbots of Andover were farmers, highly respected by their townsmen, and often intrusted with elective office in town, church, and school affairs. In the fifth generation, de- scended through John, eldest son of George Abbot of An- dover,1 Abiel Abbot, a great-grandfather of General Abbot, removed from Andover to settle in Wilton, Hillsborough County, New Hampshire, in the year 1763. He made his farm from the wilderness on "Abbot Hill" in the southern part of the township. Having cleared two acres and built a two-story house and barn, he married Dorcas Abbot and moved into the house with his bride before the doors were hung, in November, 1764. They had thirteen children, of whom the fourth, Ezra Abbot, born February 8, 1772, was grandfather to our propo- s^tus. -

Bibliotheca Sacra [July, Their Membership
CRITICAL NOTES UNITARIANISM IN AMERICA, PAST AND PRESENT UNITARIANISM in America in the first half of the nine teenth century had little resemblance to that which goes under the name at the present time. The Unitarianism of which Channing was the representative maintained the inspiration and the authority of the Bible, defended mir acles, accepted the historical evidences of Christianity as satisfactory and conclusive, believed in the p~istence of the Divine Word which became incarnate in Jesus, ac cepted the miraculous conception of Christ, and defended these views not, on purely rationalistic grounds, but by interpretation of ,what was accepted as the Word of God incorporated in the books of the Bible. No abler state ments of the evidences of Christianity have been made than those by Unitarians during the first three quarters of the nineteenth century. No stronger defense of the gen uineness of the Fourth Gospel has been published than that by Professor Ezra Abbot. No more original, powerful, and satisfactory defenses of the early date and the historical accuracy of the four Gospels have been written than" The Internal Evidences of the Genuineness of the Gospels," by Professor Andrews Norton, of the Harvard Divinity School, and "Indirect Testimony of History to the Genuineness of the Gospels," by Professor Frederic Huidekoper, of the Meadville Theological School. For the first seventy-five years of the nineteenth cen tury the controversies between the Unitarians and the evangelical scholars of New England were over the inter pretation of the Bible in its bearing upon the doctrine of the real divinity of Christ.
