THE ARMORIAL PLAQUES IN THE ROYAL SALOP INFIRMARY Janet Verasanso In the eighteenth century Shrewsbury, like most English towns, was crowded and unhealthy. 'Contagious', 'sweating' and 'putrid' fevers were rampant; death was ubiquitous, not only among the old and young but also among those in the prime of life.1 By the 1730s a number of socially conscious country gentlemen realised that the conditions in which the poor lived required an urgent solution.

  • FROM RIOTS to REVIVALISM: the Gordon Riots of 1780, Methodist Hymnody, and the Halevy Thesis Revisited
    • Methodist History. 26:3 (April 1988) FROM RIOTS TO REVIVALISM: The Gordon Riots of 1780, Methodist Hymnody, and the Halevy Thesis Revisited RALPH E. REED, JR. The Gordon Riots of 1780 were the most violent outbreak of mob violence in the history of eighteenth-century England. For seven days Il'l::l I (June 2-9, 1780) riots convulsed London and a mob of sixty thousand Itrill I l';lIJ I rioters burned and looted the city. Eyewitnesses to the destruction [~r;~ I ;Ilt included George III, Horace Walpole, Edward Gibbon, and Charles Wesley. These and other onlookers described the Riots as the worst calamity to strike London since the Great Fire of 1666. I The Gordon Riots also represented a turning point in the history of Methodism, a critical moment in which Methodist antipathy for social reform and revolution from below became irreversably deter­ mined and unyielding. This raises Elie Halevy's famous thesis that Methodism acted as an antidote to radicalism among the working class of England, preventing the French Revolution from having an English counterpart. The Gordon Riots provide a testing-ground for the Halevy thesis, and reveal that Charles Wesley and other key figures in the Methodist connection in London engaged in a deliberate attempt to turn the city's populace from riots to revivalism after 1780. In addition, this study undertakes an inquiry into the language of Methodist hym­ nody, suggesting that the eighteenth-century Methodist mind was both ~,tnlrti nr1i.J unwilling and unable to conceive of radical political agitation as a \::f,~dl F\l:t,~ remedy for the conditions of Britain's working poor.

  • Collection on Methodism in the United Kingdom and Ireland
    Collection on Methodism in the United Kingdom and Ireland A Guide to the Collection Overview Creator: Bridwell Library Title: Collection on Methodism in the United Kingdom and Ireland Inclusive Dates: 1740-1917 Bulk Dates: 1790-1890 Abstract: The letters, images, and other documents in this manuscript collection were created or received by Methodist leaders who lived in Great Britain, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales. Materials in the collection date from 1740 to 1917. The collection contains information about the lives of ministers, Wesleyan Conference presidents, and their correspondents. Accession No: BridArch 303.74 Extent: 3 boxes (3 linear feet) Language: Material is in English and Welsh Repository Bridwell Library, Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University 1 Bridwell Library * Perkins School of Theology * Southern Methodist University Historical Note The British Isles are the homeland of Methodism, a religious and social holiness revival movement that began within the Church of England during the 1730s. John Wesley (1703- 1791), whose theological writings and organizational skills drove the movement, traced Methodism’s origins back to the Holy Club, a worship, study, and benevolent service group founded at Oxford University by his brother, Charles Wesley (1707-1788). In the summer of 1738 both John and Charles Wesley underwent dramatic conversions that resulted in a newfound religious enthusiasm that offended many fashionable churches in London. Excluded from their pulpits, John Wesley found a more receptive audience among the poor and laboring classes of England when he adopted field preaching at the urging of George Whitefield. John Wesley’s theology emphasized the work of the Holy Spirit in awakening a desire for God, assuring the Christian of God’s grace, and perfecting one’s love for God and neighbor.

    THE JOURNAL of the UNITED REFORMED CHURCH HISTORY SOCIETY (incorporating the Congregational Historical Society, founded in 1899, and the Presbyterian Historical Society of England, founded in 1913). EDITOR; Dr. CLYDE BINFIELD, M.A., F.S.A. Volume 5 No 10 June 1997 CONTENTS Editorial . 573 Pennar Davies (12 November 1911-29 December 1996): Complexio Oppositorum by Geoffrey F.

Groth.. 636 EDITORIAL Wales and Independency were equally and powerfully represented in Pennar Davies, who died at the end of December 1996 and whose life is recollected by Geoffrey Nuttall. Presbyterianism was a motive force for John Macdonald Ross, who died at the end of March 1997, and who served this society and its Presbyterian predecessor distinctively and incisively. Davies and Ross were not more contrasting than the contributors to this issue or their subjects. Among new contributors we welcome Ian Randall, who teaches Church History at Spurgeon's College, Richard Goldring and Martin Camroux, who are ministers of the United Reformed Church, Alan Tovey, who is General Secretary of an Evangelical Fellowship of Congregational Churches, and Eileen Groth, who teaches at Florida State University.

    “The Palmy Days of Trade”: Anglo-American Culture in Savannah, 1735-1835 A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate School of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History of the College of Arts and Sciences 2013 By Feay Shellman Coleman M.A., University of Georgia, 1977 B.A., Connecticut College, 1971 Committee Chair: Professor David Stradling ABSTRACT This dissertation is a transnational study that traces the religious, economic, and cultural factors that kept the bonds between Savannah, Georgia and Great Britain strong and vital long after the United States achieved political independence. Through an analysis of Savannah’s pre-eminent merchant family, the Boltons, and their associates, this study demonstrates that enduring connections to Great Britain influenced both the built environment and cultural spaces that Savannahians occupied for about a century-- from Georgia’s founding in 1735 until 1835. Evidence drawn from material culture as well as a fresh reading of traditional sources support this thesis. In addition to documents, primary sources that anchor the analysis include buildings and neighborhoods where Savannahians worshiped, lived, and worked in England and America. Because material culture embodies the social meanings of the economic, religious, and domestic purposes it serves, analysis of specific buildings and neighborhoods in Savannah as counterparts to English prototypes proves the case for common culture. Throughout the dissertation, both material culture and a traditional array of documentary sources reinforce the arguments. Since this study embraces material culture and urban spatial relationships as potent sources, resulting insights break boundaries that have limited scholarship in the past.

ABSTRACT This thesis assesses how negative attitudes towards the Methodist movement and one of its’ leaders, John Wesley (1703-1791), impacted on image making in the late- eighteenth century. The thesis focuses upon one title page illustration and six frontispieces from a series of anti-Methodist publications produced in London in 1778-9: The Fanatic Saints; or, Bedlamites Inspired. A Satire, Perfection. A Poetical Epistle, The Temple of Imposture; a poem, Sketches for Tabernacle-frames, a poem, The Love-Feast, a poem and Fanatical Conversion; or, Methodism displayed. A satire, which exists in two versions. It provides the first in-depth analysis of these images. It is argued that the foci images had a discursive function, coding vast bodies of knowledge into a compact form through the use of visual symbols and embedded textual labels, captions and intertextual references.
