MDCCXXVII. ii iii To all those who have enter’d into the Work and Office of the MINISTRY, amongst the PROTESTANT DISSENTERS, since we have been favour’d with a LEGAL TOLERATION. My Dear Brethren, I MUST own it a great Pleasure to me, (and I am apt to persaude myself it will be so also to you) that under so many Disadvantages, I have been able to make such a Collection towards the preserving the Memory of those Worthy persons that were Calamy_1727_Volume_1_Text.qxp:Calamy 1713 Volume 2 15 12 2008 11:54 Page 4 4 edmund calamy ejected or silenc’d by the Act of Uniformity, who deserv’d so well at our Hands. And I am very thankful for that Assistance which so many of you have kindly given me, both in rectifying a Number of Mistakes formerly committed, and gathering up the additional Characters here publish’d. A 2 As iv As I have heartily cast in my Lot with you that adhere to that despised interest, which they thought it their Duty to support, not out of mere inclination, but upon Principle, and after the maturest Consideration; and been at some Pains to serve you; I cannot but hope that not only the Present which I here make you will be kindly taken, but that also if I embrace the Opportunity with which I am this Way furnish’d, of offering some Things to your Consideration, that appear to be of Consequence, you will forgive my Freedom, and candidly ascribe it to the sincere Good Will of one that is unfeignedly desirous of Your true Prosperity, and growing Usefulness. Allow me then Brethren, to remind you of the Spirit and Temper that generally prevail’d among our Deceased Fathers, who after having acted their Part with Faithfulness and Honour, have quitted this earthly Stage, and rest from their Labours. Remember their Faith and Holiness; their Zeal for GOD, and Love to the Souls of Men: Their Diligence and Activity in their painful Labours, and their signal Patience under great Hardships and Sufferings. Consider their Care to adorn their Character, and their watchfulness against any Thing that they could foresee might be apt to cause the Ways of GOD to he evil spoken of. The Account of them that is here given, joined with what went before, may help in this Respect to put you in Remembrance. And if it does but at the same Time provoke to a careful Imitation, it will be the readiest way I know of, to our reaching such Success in our Labours, such Tokens of a special Divine Presence, and such Appearances of the Almighty in our Favour, as they had, as we may have Occasion for them. The most eminent Prophets live not for ever. Our Fathers are gone; and we are come into their Rooms and Places, serving the same Master, and carrying v carrying on the same Design, for the Furtherance of the common Salvation. And if we have but the same Spirit prevailing among us, and the same Assistances and Encouragements from above afforded us, as were to them so great a Matter of Rejoicing, we also may hope at length to finish well, and obtain a good Report as they have done; and meet them again with great Comfort and Joy at the last, in a better World. That we may be the more effectually quicken’d, excited, and animated, to and in the Service that is before us, let us consider, Calamy_1727_Volume_1_Text.qxp:Calamy 1713 Volume 2 15 12 2008 11:54 Page 5 1727 edition volume 1 5 I. The Times that have been, and the Times that now are: and compare them together. Considering the Treatment which they who went before us met with, we cannot pretend to say, that the former Times were better than these: For they were evidently much worse. To those of our Sentiments, the former Times were very perilous; whereas to us that come after them, the present Times are very safe, which is a comfortable Difference. They whom we succeed, had many Hindrances, and Discouragements, while we may be as good and religious as ever we will, and as devout in worshipping the Great GOD and our Blessed SAVIOUR as our own Hearts can desire. Our Fathers were much in the complaining Strain, and considering how they were used we have not the least Occasion of being surpriz’d at it. They (among other Things) had a most horrid Law against them (call’ d the Act against Conventicles, that passed in 1663, and was renewed, and made yet more severe, in 1670) by which Magna Charta was torn in Pieces, and the worst and most infamous amongst Mankind, were as it were hir’d to accuse them: Multitudes of Perjuries were committed; Convictions made without a Ju A 3 ry, vi ry, and without any Hearing of the Persons accused; Penalties inflicted; Goods rifled; Estates seized and embezzled; Houses broken up; Families disturbed, often at most unseasonable Hours of the Night, without any Cause, or Shadow of Cause, if only, a malicious Villain would pretend to suspect a Meeting there: Whereas we now for eight and thirty Years together have had great Tranquility and peaceable Liberty, and it would be hard to find better Times in this Land and Nation, in any Period, than we have liv’d in. Had we been so traduced, and exposed, and insulted, and pillag’d as they were that went before us, we should have thought ourselves very hardly dealt with, and that we might well enough make sorrowful Complaints. And were they to have lived in such Times as ours, I doubt not but they would have thought themselves exceeding happy. What they did secretly, in private Corners, and with great Hazard, may we now do freely and openly, and without Fear. The Government under which we live instead of straitning is so good as to shelter us, and it is Openly insulted, by any that offer to give us Molestation. Had our Pious Fathers had such Halcyon Days as these, what Pains would they have taken in Preaching the Gospel! And what can be mentioned that came within their Reach, that they would have stuck at in order to greater Usefulness! How earnest and fervent would they have been in all the Parts of their Service! How diligent and unwearied in their Endeavours to do good to the Souls of Men! And how watchful against Jealousies and Animosities amongst themselves! And how careful to be unanimous, and to strengthen one another’s Calamy_1727_Volume_1_Text.qxp:Calamy 1713 Volume 2 15 12 2008 11:54 Page 6 6 edmund calamy Hands, and jointly to promote Truth and Love, and hearten, animate and encourage, and so a good Example to, such as were to rise up after them in the same Service! And why then should vii should not we use like Diligence, Application, and Care! The Times are most evidently in some Respects better than they have been, and the present Age is improv’d beyond the foregoing. We are much more generally, Enemies to all Force and Violence in Matters of Conscience, than heretofore: And tho’ as Bishop Burnet observes, there is no Principle that is more hated by bad ill-natured Clergymen than that;† yet I think it cannot be contested, that many more of the Clergy of the Established Church do stand up for that Principle now than formerly; and the Body of the Gentry fall in with it too.

Their values may well have been shaped or influenced by the speakers each heard; the documents they read; the doctrines, customs and traditions of the Christian and other organisations they belonged to; the beliefs and attitudes of their families, friends, teachers, neighbours, employers and opinion formers of their time; the lives they all led and the contemporary national and world events that touched them. It seems to me impossible to write a history of Roundhay Methodist Church without describing something of the lives of those who participated in Church Life and shaped what we now enjoy. I confess I find people more interesting than documenting bricks and mortar, or recounting decisions recorded in minute books, but they all play a part in our history. I am not a trained historian but have tried hard to base my description in contemporary evidence rather than hearsay.

  • John Wesley and the Religious Societies
    JOHN WESLEY AND THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES JOHN WESLEY AND THE RELIGIOUS SOCIETIES BY JOHN S. SIMON, D.D. AUTHOR OF * A SUMMARY OF METHODIST LAW AND DISCIPLINE,' * THE REVIVAL OF RELIGION IN ENGLAND IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY,' ETC. LONDON THE EPWORTH PRESS J. ALFRED SHARP First edition, 1921 PREFACE Canon Overton, in his Life in the English Church, 1660- ' 1714, says that there is no doubt that John Wesley intended his Societies to be an exact repetition of what was done by Beveridge, Horneck, and Smythies sixty-two years before.' ' He continues : How it was that the Methodist Societies took a different course is a very interesting, and, to a church- man, a very sad question.' In this book I have given descrip- tions of the first Rehgious Societies, and have shown their development under the influence of Dr. Woodward and John Wesley. From those descriptions my readers wiU be able to judge the accuracy of Canon Overton's statement concern- ing John Wesley's intentions. There can be no doubt, how- ' ' ever, that the relationship between the Religious Societies ' ' and the United Societies of the People called Methodists was so close that the latter cannot be understood without an intimate knowledge of the former. In writing this book, I have kept the Methodist Church in view. My eyes have been fixed on John Wesley and the England in which his greatest work was done. We can never understand the revival of religion which glorified the eighteenth century until we see Wesley as he wls, and get rid of the false impressions created by writers who have had an imperfect acquaintance with him and his evangelistic work.

  • Dissenters' Schools, 1660-1820
    Dissenters' Schools, 1660-1820. HE contributions of nonconformity to education have seldom been recognized. Even historians of dissent T have rarely done more than mention the academies, and speak of them as though they existed chiefly to train ministers, which was but a very; small part o:f their function, almost incidental. Tbis side of the work, the tecbnical, has again been emphasized lately by Dr. Shaw in the " Cambridge History of Modern Literature," and by Miss Parker in her " Dissenting Academies in England ": it needs tberefore no further mention. A 'brief study of the wider contribution of dissent, charity schools, clay schools, boarding schools, has been laid before the members of our Society. An imperfect skeleton, naming and dating some of the schoolmasters, may be pieced together here. It makes no 'P'r·et·ence to be exhaustive; but it deliberately: excludes tutors who were entirely engaged in the work of pre­ paring men for the ministry, so as to illustrate the great work clone in general education. It incorporates an analysis of the. I 66 5 returns to the Bishop of Exeter, of IVIurch's history of the Presbyterian and General Baptist Churches in the West, of Nightingale's history of Lancashire Nonconformity (marked N), of Wilson's history of dissenting churches in and near London. The counties of Devon, Lancaste.r, and Middlesex therefore are well represented, and probably an analysis of any county dissenting history would reveal as good work being done in every rplace. A single date marks the closing of the school. Details about many will be found in the Transactions of the Congregational Historical Society, to which references are given.

It incorporates comparable data from the reigns of Edward VI, Mary I, and the Elizabeth I. Much of the analysis is quantitative in nature: chapters compare the appointments of justices of the peace during the reigns of Edward VI, Mary I, and Elizabeth I, and reveal that purges of the commissions of the peace were far more common than is generally believed. Furthermore, purges appear to have been religiously- based, especially during the reign of Elizabeth I. There is a gap in the quantitative data beginning in 1569, only eleven years into Elizabeth I’s reign, which continues until 1584. In an effort to compensate for the loss of quantitative data, this dissertation analyzes a different primary source, William Lambarde’s guidebook for JPs, Eirenarcha. The fourth chapter makes particular use of Eirenarcha, exploring required duties both in and out of session, what technical and personal qualities were expected of JPs, and how well they lived up to them.

  • The Movement for the Reformation of Manners, 1688-1715
    THE MOVEMENT FOR THE REFORMATION OF MANNERS, 1688-1715 ANDREW GORDON CRAIG 1980 (reset and digitally formatted 2015) PREFACE TO THE 2015 VERSION This study was completed in the pre-digital era and since then has been relatively inaccessible to researchers. To help rectify that, the 1980 typescript submitted for the degree of PhD from Edinburgh University has been reset and formatted in Microsoft “Word” and Arial 12pt as an easily readable font and then converted to a read-only PDF file for circulation. It is now more compact than the original typescript version and fully searchable. Some minor typographical errors have been corrected but no material published post-1980 has been added except in the postscript (see below). Pagination in the present version does not correspond to the original because of computerised resetting of the text. Footnotes in this version are consecutive throughout, rather than chapter by chapter as required in the 1980 version. The original bound copy is lodged in Edinburgh University Library. A PDF scan of it is available at https://www.era.lib.ed.ac.uk /bitstream/handle/1842/6840/254333.pdf A further hand-corrected copy is available together with my research archive in the Special Collections Department at St Andrews University Library. http://www.st- andrews.ac.uk/library/specialcollections/ A note for researchers interested in the movement for the reformation of manners 1688-1715 and afterwards has been added as a postscript which lists other studies which have utilised this work and its sources in various ways.

  • Birthright Democracy: Nationhood and Constitutional Self-Government in History
    BIRTHRIGHT DEMOCRACY: NATIONHOOD AND CONSTITUTIONAL SELF-GOVERNMENT IN HISTORY By Ethan Alexander-Davey A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Political Science) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-MADISON 2013 Date of final oral examination: 8/16/13 The dissertation is approved by the following members of the Final Oral Committee: Richard Avramenko, Political Science Daniel Kapust, Political Science James Klausen, Political Science Howard Schweber, Political Science Johann Sommerville, History i Abstract How did constitutionally limited government and democracy emerge in the West? Many scholars from many different perspectives have attempted to answer this question. I identify the emergence of these forms of self-government with early modern nationalism. Broadly speaking, nationalism of the right sort provides indispensable resources both for united popular resistance against autocratic rule, and for the formation and legitimation of national systems self- governance. Resistance and self-government both require a national consciousness that includes a myth of national origin, a national language, a common faith, and, crucially, native traditions of self-government, and stories of heroic ancestors who successfully defended those traditions against usurpers and tyrants. It is through national consciousness that abstract theories of resistance and self-government become concrete and tenable. It is though national fellowship that the idea of a political nation, possessing the right to make rulers accountable to its will, comes into existence and is sustained over time. My arguments basically fall under two headings, historical and theoretical. By an examination of the nationalist political thought of early modern European countries, I intend to establish important historical connections between the rise of nationalism and the emergence of self-government.

Daniel Defoe’s Moral and Political Thought in Its Religious Context Chienyuen Chen PhD Thesis The University of Edinburgh 2019 2 Abstract This thesis aims to provide a comprehensive picture of the religious ideas of the famous English journalist and novelist Daniel Defoe. Today, Defoe is best remembered as a novelist, but most of his works are non-fictional works including a sizable number of didactic or supernatural writings. Even though there is a rising scholarly interest in Defoe’s thoughts on subjects such as politics or Puritanism, there is hardly a single monograph devoted to Defoe’s religious ideas. This thesis aims to fill the gap by examining Defoe’s works throughout his career. It demonstrates that Defoe’s Presbyterian upbringing was influential in his emphasis on the ideas of good work, practical godliness, and the development of good habits.

Newkome, Ph.D. ____________________________ ____________________________ Faculty Reader Date Howard Ducharme, Ph.D. ____________________________ Faculty Reader Matthew Crawford, Ph.D. ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is about death and its relationship to religion in late seventeenth- century England. The primary argument is that while beliefs about death stemmed from the Reformation tradition, divergent religious reforms of Puritanism and Arminianism did not lead to differing approaches to death. People adapted religious ideas on general terms of Protestant Christianity and not specifically aligned with varying reform movements. This study links apologetics and sermons concerning spiritual death, physical death, and remedies for each to cultural practice through the lens of wills and graves to gauge religious influence. Readers are reminded of the origins of reformed thought, which is what seventeenth-century English theologians built their ideas upon. Religious debates of the day centered on the Puritan and Arminian divide, which contained significantly different ideas of soteriology, a key aspect of a good death in the English ars moriendi.
