  • THE BRITISH ARMY in the LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 By
    ‘FAIRLY OUT-GENERALLED AND DISGRACEFULLY BEATEN’: THE BRITISH ARMY IN THE LOW COUNTRIES, 1793-1814 by ANDREW ROBERT LIMM A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY. University of Birmingham School of History and Cultures College of Arts and Law October, 2014.

ABSTRACT The history of the British Army in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars is generally associated with stories of British military victory and the campaigns of the Duke of Wellington. An intrinsic aspect of the historiography is the argument that, following British defeat in the Low Countries in 1795, the Army was transformed by the military reforms of His Royal Highness, Frederick Duke of York. This thesis provides a critical appraisal of the reform process with reference to the organisation, structure, ethos and learning capabilities of the British Army and evaluates the impact of the reforms upon British military performance in the Low Countries, in the period 1793 to 1814, via a series of narrative reconstructions. This thesis directly challenges the transformation argument and provides a re-evaluation of British military competency in the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars.

  • Baptist North American Phase Communiqué
    North American Phase 2003 Communiqué The North American phase of the international theological conversations between Anglicans and Baptists was held at Acadia University, Wolfville, Nova Scotia, from 10 - 12 September 2003. This regional meeting follows five previous phases held in Norwich (for Europe) in 2000, Yangon (for Asia/Pacific) in 2001, Nairobi (for Africa), in 2002, Santiago,Chile (for Latin America) and Nassau (for the Caribbean) in January 2003. Participants came from the United States and Canada, representing their respective Churches and joined the members of the "Continuation Committee" which is conducting these regional gatherings on behalf of the Baptist World Alliance and the Anglican Communion. The Anglican and Baptist representatives gave an overview of the life of their respective communions in North America. Seven substantive papers were presented on Common Challenges facing Anglicans and Baptists in North America, Baptist Life in North America, A North American Baptist Understanding of Continuity, two papers on The Nature and Role of the Church from Anglican and Baptist perspectives and paired papers on Authority. The plenary discussion drew together insights from the American and Canadian contexts and related them to the themes emerging from previous regional conversations, namely: continuity and story; the meaning of recognition; mission and ministry; baptism and Christian initiation; membership of the Church; the Eucharist or Lord's Supper; oversight and episcope; and confessing the apostolic faith. Discussion focussed on how each tradition handled diversity of views within their tradition, and the nature of denominational allegiance as well as the diversity between the two communions. The meeting began with a celebration of an Anglican Eucharist in the local parish church, and included shared prayer and devotions conducted by Baptists and Anglicans.

  • RELIGION and EDUCATION an ABBPAST PUBLICATION Introduction
    THE ABBOTSKERSWELL VILLAGE HISTORY SERIES, 3 RELIGION AND EDUCATION AN ABBPAST PUBLICATION Introduction he Abbotskerswell Village History Series, is now well under way, with this being the third in the series; if you have missed the first two Task in the shop as they should still have copies. We now move on to the story of the hugely significant village institutions of churches, chapels and schools. The Abbotskerswell of 2016 is a very different place from the nineteenth century village that features in this edition, when the various religious institutions held great importance in most people’s lives; the fact that a village of under 500 people had five separate religious groups represented here was remarkable. Of course many people rarely left the village and had simple views on life, they were poorly educated and many would have been illiterate. Our village’s story continues with the changes brought about by compulsory education and children no longer leaving school aged ten to go to work. In writing each booklet we have tried to make each one readable on its own, whilst trying not to end up repeating ourselves. They probably make more sense read in sequence, as names such as Mrs Hare do keep reappearing. From the research team’s point of view the exciting thing is the wealth of material that has emerged as more people have learnt of our project. The emergence of village histories going back nearly a century has been fascinating, in this edition we feature two more of them. ABBOTSKERSWELL VILLAGE HISTORY Religion and Education 1 Chapter 1 A Religious Heritage These are two church histories, with our village’s vicar Rev.

  • U DX9 Letters from Edward Augustus Freeman 1868-1892 to Edith Thompson
    Hull History Centre: Letters from Edward Augustus Freeman to Edith Thompson U DX9 Letters from Edward Augustus Freeman 1868-1892 to Edith Thompson Biographical Background: Edward Augustus Freeman was born at Harborne, Staffordshire in 1823, the only son of John Freeman and Mary Anne Carless. His parents died while he was still an infant and he was schooled by the Reverend Browne at Cheam in Surrey and then privately-tutored by the Reverend R Gutch at Segrave in Leicstershire, whose daughter, Eleanor, he ultimately married. His tertiary education was not totally smooth; he was turned down at Balliol College, Oxford, before being accepted at Trinity College, Oxford, where he obtained a second class in the schools in 1845. He married in 1847 and in 1849 published his first book, A history of architecture Architecture was to remain an abiding interest, particularly ecclesiastical architecture. In 1855 he moved to Lanrumney Hall near Cardiff, the year of the foundation of the Saturday Review, a journal to which he contributed for 22 years. In 1856 he went on a continental tour for the first time and from then on he travelled as an extension of his eclectic historical interest, writing articles on places he visited and adding to his knowledge of Greek and Roman political and architectural history (Dictionary of National Biography). In 1860 the Freeman family moved to a house and park called Somerleaze near Wells and most of the letters in the collection were posted from Somerleaze or abroad. During the 1860s Edward Freeman made two unsuccessful bids for chairs at Oxford and published on constitutional history and the history of the Norman Conquest.
