George Abbot 1562-1633 Archbishop of Canterbury
English Book Owners in the Seventeenth Century: A Work in Progress Listing How much do we really know about patterns and impacts of book ownership in Britain in the seventeenth century? How well equipped are we to answer questions such as the following?: • What was a typical private library, in terms of size and content, in the seventeenth century? • How does the answer to that question vary according to occupation, social status, etc? • How does the answer vary over time? – how different are ownership patterns in the middle of the century from those of the beginning, and how different are they again at the end? Having sound answers to these questions will contribute significantly to our understanding of print culture and the history of the book more widely during this period. Our current state of knowledge is both imperfect, and fragmented. There is no directory or comprehensive reference source on seventeenth-century British book owners, although there are numerous studies of individual collectors. There are well-known names who are regularly cited in this context – Cotton, Dering, Pepys – and accepted wisdom as to collections which were particularly interesting or outstanding, but there is much in this area that deserves to be challenged. Private Libraries in Renaissance England and Books in Cambridge Inventories have developed a more comprehensive approach to a particular (academic) kind of owner, but they are largely focused on the sixteenth century. Sears Jayne, Library Catalogues of the English Renaissance, extends coverage to 1640, based on book lists found in a variety of manuscript sources. Evidence of book ownership in this period is manifested in a variety of ways, which need to be brought together if we are to develop that fuller picture. -

A knowledge of the conditions of his task should make the historian of Jesus take a modest view of its importance ; for, though the tree sprung from Alcock"s acorn has now grown to some size and not a little vigour, for the best part of its existence it was overshadowed by taller neighbours in the academic grove. In fact, except in some short periods of unwonted prosperity, Jesus was, until recent ' 1 times, emphatically a small college, low in revenues, and in numbers competing with Peterhouse and Magda- lene rather than with Caius or Christ's. -

Sir Christopher Wren and the Rebuilding of the City Churches After the Great Fire of London Transcript
Sir Christopher Wren and the Rebuilding of the City Churches after the Great Fire of London Transcript Date: Tuesday, 30 June 2015 - 6:00PM Location: Barnard's Inn Hall 30 June 2015 From Astronomy to Architecture: Sir Christopher Wren, Gresham College, And the Rebuilding of the City Churches After the Great Fire of London Anthony Geraghty I would like to begin my lecture with another lecture delivered in Gresham College. This other lecture was delivered in 1657, obviously not in this room, but within the very institution that was kind enough to invite me to speak to you this evening. That other occasion was the inaugural lecture of the ninth Gresham Professor of Astronomy. His name was Christopher Wren and he was 25 years old. This was his first academic position and great things were expected of him; he was, as John Evelyn put it, a ‘miracle of a youth’. Wren, who was to live for another 66 years, is best known as the architect of St Paul’s Cathedral, the City of London churches, numerous royal palaces, and much else besides. Before all this achievement in architecture, however, he enjoyed a distinguished career as a scientist – what the period termed a mathematician. To be a mathematician in the seventeenth century denoted a wider range of interests than it does today, and this was especially true of Wren. It was as an astronomer that he built his academic career, but his academic interests’ encompassed cosmology, mechanics, microscopy, surveying, medicine and meteorology. He published comparatively little, but his contemporaries regarded him as one of the foremost scientists of the age, praised by no less a figure than Isaac Newton. -

It is not substantially the same as any that I have submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for a degree or diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. I further state that no substantial part of my dissertation has already been submitted, or, is being concurrently submitted for any such degree, diploma or other qualification at the University of Cambridge or any other University or similar institution except as declared in the Preface and specified in the text. This dissertation is 76,245 words long, excluding footnotes and bibliography. It does not, therefore, exceed the prescribed word limit, of 80,000 words, for the Degree Committee of the Faculty of History. ………………………….….………………… Mrs Alice Soulieux-Evans Tuesday 19th March, 2019 i ii CATHEDRALS AND THE CHURCH OF ENGLAND, C.1660-1714 ALICE SOULIEUX-EVANS Early modern cathedrals have often found themselves falling between the historiographical cracks. While antiquarians and art historians have seen their early modern pasts as nothing more than periods of ‘desecration and pillage’, early modern historians have dismissed cathedrals as medieval ‘fossils’, irrelevant and impermeable to the religious upheavals of the English Reformation. -
London Parish Life and the Great Fire of London A
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA RIVERSIDE The Parish Exposed: London Parish Life and the Great Fire of London A Dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History by Stephen Arthur Teske March 2015 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Thomas Cogswell, Chairperson Dr. Randolph Head Dr. Jonathan Eacott Copyright by Stephen Arthur Teske 2015 The Dissertation of Stephen Arthur Teske is approved: __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________ Committee Chairperson University of California, Riverside ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Throughout the process of writing this dissertation I have often been asked how I cope with the solitude of academic research. Reflecting on the process now, as it nears its end, it is abundantly clear how much writing a dissertation is a team sport. None of this could have been accomplished without Dr. Thomas Cogswell, who patiently guided me through this process from start to finish. If the reader finds any part of this dissertation engaging, it is almost certainly the result of Tom’s ear for a good story, and his never-ending drive to see that story completely extracted from the source material. I owe Dr. Randolph Head a significant debt, not only for his support of this project, but also for modeling the kind of diligence and rigor that makes academic research possible. I must thank Dr. Malcolm Baker for helping me to see structure and space as primary sources, and to Dr. Kristoffer Neville, for teaching me to engage with these sources. I cannot forget to thank Professor Jonathan Eacott who provided some much need last minute support for this project. -

Protestants Bishops in Restoration England
This is the Accepted Post-print version of: Harmes, Marcus (2009) Protestant bishops in Restoration England. Parergon, 26 (1). pp. 175-196. ISSN 0313-6221. Available from USQ ePrints http://eprints.usq.edu.au/19859/ Protestant Bishops in Restoration England Marcus Harmes The reconstruction of the Church of England‟s hierarchy after 1660 has attracted extensive scholarly attention. Scholars have evaluated how far the doctrinal and ecclesial positions of the Laudian Church shaped the reconstruction of the episcopal hierarchy up to and beyond 1660, especially the Laudian recourse to theories of Jure divino episcopacy as justifying episcopal status and power. Detailed analysis of two texts, John Gauden‟s The Looſing of St Peters Bands and Arthur Duck‟s Life of Henry Chichele (a medieval archbishop of Canterbury) will demonstrate how the restored episcopate was prepared to appeal to its late-medieval past and to its immediate context in order to justify its authority and demonstrate its self-conception as being an agent of reformed authority. Introduction During the seventeenth century in England individual bishops and the episcopate in general came under increasingly intense censure for being a popish dreg. As a Romanist relic, the episcopate was perceived by its detractors more as a problem than a solution to the settlement of the English Church. Attacks against bishops culminated in the abolition of episcopal government by the Long Parliament in the 1640s, leaving episcopacy in abeyance until the Restoration of 1660. During the seventeenth century, other challenges came from the often drastic reductions in episcopal revenues made by royal authorities, which themselves impacted on the capacity of bishops to fulfill their functions and exercise their authority.1 Censure provoked defence; from the 1570s onwards, the English episcopate had faced various demands for further reform or else its total extirpation. -

R. Elrington, honorary editor of the Society 1962-72, and was completed under that of Dr. D. A. Crowley, honorary editor 1972-6. The editor of the volume, Mr. Wil- liams, wishes to thank them for their advice and encouragement. Warm thanks are also extended to Mr. P. V. McGrath of the University of Bristol, who first suggested an edition of the subscription book, to Miss K. Pamela Stewart and the staff of the Salisbury Diocesan Record Office, and to Mr. R. A. Read of the Salisbury Diocesan Registry. The subscription book is published by permission of the Diocesan Registrar. Generalizations about the clergy in the period preceding the Civil Wars must be tested against such a body of facts as Mr. Williams has provided in this edition. Here is material for investigation of the social standing, education, and personal connexions of hundreds of individuals in a considerable part of western England.
