Uebersicht Der in Den Jähren 1877, 1878 Und 1879 Auf Dem Gebiete Der Englischen Philologie Erschienenen Bttcher Und Aufsätze Uebersicht der in den jähren 1877, 1878 und 1879 auf dem gebiete der Englischen philologie erschienenen bttcher und aufsätze. Auch diese übersieht schließet im allgemeinen diejenigen bttcher und kleineren Schriften aus, welche lediglich zwecken des unterrichte und der Unterhaltung dienen. Damit ist in- dessen nicht gesagt, dass alles aufgenommene wissen*cha,ft- Uchen wert hat. „ Sollte hie und da wichtiges übersehen sein, so trifft dte schuld ausser mir auch die Verfasser und Verleger, welche es unterlassen haben, die betreffenden Schriften einzusenden. Nur in bezug auf diejenigen bttcher und aufsätze, welche entweder an den Verleger der 'Anglia', herrn Max Niemeyer j Halle */S., gr. Steinstrasse, oder direkt an mich eingeliefert werden, tiber- nehme ich die gewähr, dass sie in der Übersicht nicht uner- wähnt bleiben, und dass die angaben über preis, Seitenzahl, format u. w. vollkommen genau sind. Eine Shakespeare-bibliographic ist nicht gegeben worden und wird auch in zukunft nicht gegeben werden, so lange das Shakespeare-Jahrbuch die sorgsamen arbeiten von Albert Cohn bringt. Ich habe schliesslich herrn Otto W. Fütterer in Neu York zu danken, der mich wieder auf das zuvorkommendste bei der Zusammenstellung der in Amerika erschienenen bttcher und aufsätze unterstützt hat.

  • Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018
    Lesser Feasts and Fasts 2018 Conforming to General Convention 2018 1 Preface Christians have since ancient times honored men and women whose lives represent heroic commitment to Christ and who have borne witness to their faith even at the cost of their lives. Such witnesses, by the grace of God, live in every age. The criteria used in the selection of those to be commemorated in the Episcopal Church are set out below and represent a growing consensus among provinces of the Anglican Communion also engaged in enriching their calendars. What we celebrate in the lives of the saints is the presence of Christ expressing itself in and through particular lives lived in the midst of specific historical circumstances. In the saints we are not dealing primarily with absolutes of perfection but human lives, in all their diversity, open to the motions of the Holy Spirit. Many a holy life, when carefully examined, will reveal flaws or the bias of a particular moment in history or ecclesial perspective. It should encourage us to realize that the saints, like us, are first and foremost redeemed sinners in whom the risen Christ’s words to St. Paul come to fulfillment, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” The “lesser feasts” provide opportunities for optional observance. They are not intended to replace the fundamental celebration of Sunday and major Holy Days. As the Standing Liturgical Commission and the General Convention add or delete names from the calendar, successive editions of this volume will be published, each edition bearing in the title the date of the General Convention to which it is a response.

Bishop Lynch said: "I am deeply concerned over the deepening humanitarian crisis involving thousands of migrants unfolding in Calais. The crisis has developed over a decade and challenges us all, both as Christians and as Europeans. We must face up to this reality at various levels. First, in solidarity with the most vulnerable migrants we recognise the local pastoral, humanitarian, and compassionate response from the French Church and call on the French authorities to redouble their efforts in providing adequate reception facilities for migrants. We acknowledge the work done by faith organisations in France and the UK together with charities, agencies and the great generosity of families and individuals to the relief efforts. The task is immense and their contributions are most valued. The Catholic Bishops' Conference of England and Wales will be making a material contribution to those efforts. Second, at an international level we are aware that the answer to the current migrant crisis lies beyond Calais.

  • The Norman Conquest: Ten Centuries of Interpretation (1975)
    CARTER, JOHN MARSHALL. The Norman Conquest: Ten Centuries of Interpretation (1975). Directed by: Prof. John H. Beeler. The purpose of this study was to investigate the historical accounts of the Norman Conquest and its results. A select group of historians and works, primarily English, were investigated, beginning with the chronicles of medieval writers and continuing chronologically to the works of twentieth century historians. The majority of the texts that were examined pertained to the major problems of the Norman Conquest: the introduction of English feudalism, whether or not the Norman Conquest was an aristocratic revolution, and, how it affected the English church. However, other important areas such as the Conquest's effects on literature, language, economics, and architecture were observed through the "eyes" of past and present historians. A seconday purpose was to assemble for the student of English medieval history, and particularly the Norman Conquest, a variety of primary and secondary sources. Each new generation writes its own histories, seeking to add to the existing cache of material or to reinterpret the existing material in the light of the present. The future study of history will be significantly advanced by historiographic surveys of all major historical events. Professor Wallace K. Ferguson produced an indispensable work for students of the Italian Renaissance, tracing the development of historical thought from the fifteenth to the twentieth century. V Professor Bryce Lyon performed a similar task,if not on as epic a scale, with his essay on the diversity of thought in regard to the history of the origins of the Middle Ages.

  • How Anglicans Tipped the Brexit Vote Page 1 of 2
    LSE Brexit: How Anglicans tipped the Brexit vote Page 1 of 2 How Anglicans tipped the Brexit vote Two-thirds of Anglicans voted for Brexit, a much higher proportion than in the country as a whole. Greg Smith (William Temple Foundation) and Linda Woodhead (Lancaster University) look at the reasons for the disparity and note the divergence between the beliefs of UK evangelicals – including the Archbishop of Canterbury – and ‘normal’ Anglicans. The Archbishop of Canterbury, Justin Welby, has been busy again attacking the markets and calling for more welfare. His views are at variance with those of ordinary Anglicans, two-thirds of whom think that welfare spending is too high. Research we have just published reveals an equally significant ‘values gap’ when it comes to the EU. ‘In the run up to the referendum of 2016 Welby was against Brexit but in the vote Anglicans strongly supported it. Our exit poll of 3,242 UK adults, commissioned by Linda Woodhead immediately after the referendum, shows that exactly two-thirds (66%) of the Anglicans in England who cast a vote, voted to leave the EU. That’s higher than for England as a whole, where just over half of voters (53%) chose Leave. Stained glass at St Mary’s Church, Godmanchester. Photo: Steve Day via a CC-BY-NC-SA 2.0 licence Anglicans are more enthusiastically pro-Brexit than affiliates of other major religions. In England, 55% of Catholics voted Leave, 45% Remain. Amongst other non-Christian faiths – though sample sizes are small – the tendency was to favour Remain over Leave.

  • Behind the Study Door: the Study of Church History
    BEHIND THE STUDY DOOR 149 of all the books of the New Testament, and devotionally it is the most peaceful. At no point is the fatal divorce between criticism and devotton easier to make and at no point has it such an obvious and specious appeal. Yet this divorce reduced Evangelical Anglican scholarship to stagnation for over a generation, and the results in a devotional sugary pietism replacing the true salty tang of the Gospel are plain for all to see. Either we must worship the Lord out God with our whole being, intellect, emotion and will, or we cannot for long worship Him at all. Let us, then. despite all difficulties, tackle the Fourth Gospel. Temple's Reading$ will start us off, and Hoskyn's great commentary will urge us on, and E. F. Scott's pioneering venture, The Fourlh Gospel, will be perhaps best of all, but it is strong meat and not everyone will be able to digest it. Perhaps before long C. H. Dodd will have written the commentary we are still waiting for on St. John, and if T. W. Manson would complete his studies so as to include all the contents of the first three Gospels, then indeed there would be time to give thanks for that splendid and fascinating redis­ covery of the faith and life and worship of the Early Church, which we owe to contemporary biblical and liturgical scholarship. " These are great days, great in opportunity, great in opposition, glorious in triumph," Bishop Linton wrote home from Persta about 1930. His words may be echoed as we survey the Bible and realise how wonderfully we are being led to a rediscovery of the Gospel as adequate to our needs of to-day as it ever was to the needs of the first century Christians.

  • The See of Canterbury
    The See of Canterbury STEPHEN NEILL THE ARCHDEACON OF WESTMINSTER is well known for his humane, indeed urbane, historical scholarship. I can think of no one, except perhaps Canon Charles Smyth, who could have produced so engaging a panorama of a hundred archbishops of Canterbury.* Dr. Carpenter has wisely resisted the temptation to string his arch­ bishops out on a line-to make a hundred brief biographies interesting would overtax the resources of the most skilled historian and writer. He has depicted a number of them in groups. Even so the Anglo­ Saxons remain shadowy figures, and few of the medievals are really interesting. When we come to the Reformation, it seems to me that Dr. Carpenter has not fully understood the greatness of Cranmer, has been a little too kind to Pole, a little indecisive on Laud. And I do not know how anyone could make the Georgian bishops interesting; they were on the whole a poor lot, and the best of the bishops of that time, Joseph Butler, never attained to the primacy. As we approach modern times the sketches become more individual and more alive. Dr. Carpenter is very good on Tait and Davidson, good on Benson and Lang, a little weak on the two Temples. I judge it to have been a mistake to include Geoffrey Fisher-the time has not yet come at which it will be possible to see in perspective that enigmatic figure. His remarks on the present holder of the office are thin and unrevealing. So a more than competent job. My real question, however, is whether the Archdeacon was put by his publishers on to a really rewarding enterprise.

  • The Church of the Incarnation
    THE CHURCH OF THE INCARNATION A hundred years ago, in the early 20th century, it seemed inevitable that William Temple would one day become Archbishop of Canterbury. Everybody said so. He was generally thought to have the finest mind of his generation, and (though it’s no sort of qualification) he was … the son of a previous Archbishop. But to become Archbishop of Canterbury you have, first, to become a priest, and young William Temple found it uncommon hard to find a bishop who would ordain him. When he was 25, already an Oxford don, he applied to the Bishop of Oxford, who turned him down flat – on grounds that Temple had told him (a) that he didn’t believe in the Virgin Birth, and (b) that his belief in the bodily (that is, the physical) Resurrection of Jesus was shaky at best. Now you may well be thinking that the Bishop of Oxford was right. Aren’t those two rather essential doctrines of Christianity? Well, I’m not so sure. You can certainly make a case for saying that Mary did not have to be a virgin when she gave birth to Jesus (indeed, many of my confirmands have argued that case most vigorously, though I don’t personally subscribe to it). And as to the Resurrection, Temple certainly believed in the Resurrection. What he wasn’t so sure about was whether it had been a physical bodily resurrection or just a spiritual resurrection – the sort of thing you and I hope for after our deaths. At all events, William Temple (and we’ll come back to him later, because he did, indeed, become Archbishop of Canterbury) … young William Temple believed these were arguable matters for Christians – interesting and highly debatable, but paling into insignificance beside the supreme doctrine of Christianity, which is the Incarnation.
