  • The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575
    The Implementation and Impact of the Reformation in Shropshire, 1545-1575 Elizabeth Murray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts United Faculty of Theology The Melbourne College of Divinity October, 2007 Abstract Most English Reformation studies have been about the far north or the wealthier south-east. The poorer areas of the midlands and west have been largely passed over as less well-documented and thus less interesting. This thesis studying the north of the county of Shropshire demonstrates that the generally accepted model of the change from Roman Catholic to English Reformed worship does not adequately describe the experience of parishioners in that county. Acknowledgements I am grateful to Dr Craig D’Alton for his constant support and guidance as my supervisor. Thanks to Dr Dolly Mackinnon for introducing me to historical soundscapes with enthusiasm. Thanks also to the members of the Medieval Early Modern History Cohort for acting as a sounding board for ideas and for their assistance in transcribing the manuscripts in palaeography workshops. I wish to acknowledge the valuable assistance of various Shropshire and Staffordshire clergy, the staff of the Lichfield Heritage Centre and Lichfield Cathedral for permission to photograph churches and church plate. Thanks also to the Victoria & Albert Museum for access to their textiles collection. The staff at the Shropshire Archives, Shrewsbury were very helpful, as were the staff of the State Library of Victoria who retrieved all the volumes of the Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society. I very much appreciate the ongoing support and love of my family.

  • 1 Chapter One Introduction to the Study in the Spring
    Chapter One Introduction to the Study In the spring of 1989, a 9-year-old boy was gunned down in the streets of a major city in The United States. The horror of this homicide was that both the victim and the assailant were children. During the 1980s this city, like most other large urban cities, was besieged by a growing number of violent acts: assaults, thefts, rapes, homicides, suicides, hate crimes, extortions, and destructions of property, but the murder of this young child became the catalyst which propelled specific action. In this case, a community educational organization called The Cottage Family and Child Care Center, which is the subject of this study, was created. Curcio and First (1993) write that “we can do more than just cope” in our “efforts to proactively defuse and prevent violence” (p. 50). As an antidote to growing violence in our schools and communities, they support the concept of community involvement and the relatively new notion of full-service schools (p. 35). School-linked services, full-service schools, or school community connections are terms which have been surfacing during the last decade and mean different things to people, depending upon their background and experience. While recognizing the semantic challenge that exists and the diversity of actual program designs represented by these terms, some commonality is beginning to surface in the literature. Adler (1994) identifies a number of common threads that weave through various definitions of school-linked or community-linked services: neighborhood accessibility, collaboration for holistic purposes, prevention rather than crises orientation, new systems, flexibility of funding, staff development, and system-wide changes (p.

She knew God was calling her to service for the church, and she wanted to pursue this call and be trained here with faculty and students who were committed to the church. But she never could have afforded the tuition on her own. That’s where the supporters to Divinity Annual Fund come into the picture. With help from the annual fund, Goodie is about to graduate and go into ministry—a ministry made possible by friends and donors who believe in the importance of God’s church and well-prepared ministers. Every gift makes a difference. Every gift is welcome. Join us today with a gift to Divinity Annual Fund, and make ministry possible.

  • 11 Women of the Reformation Cornelia Schlarb 1. Introduction Since The
    Women of the reformation Cornelia Schlarb 1. Introduction Since the EKD (Evangelical Church in Germany) has proclaimed a Luther or reformation decade in 2008 in order to celebrate the beginning of the reformation 500 years ago, the interest in what and how women contributed to the spreading of the new reformatory ideas and live style has been increasing in Germany. The situation has been completely different when I was studying evangelical theology in Marburg and Heidelberg in the beginning of the 1980th. In that time German scholars, or rather female scholars, only started to research the bible and church history about women's contribution, although in other countries, like in the USA, Roland H. Bainton (1894-1984) had already published his book “Women of the Reformation in Germany and Italy” in 1971. It is very significant that it took 24 years to translate this book into German. In 1995 it had become available as paperback issue with the title “Frauen der Reformation. Von Katharina von Bora bis Anna Zwingli”. It contains seven biographies and a summarized description of women of the Anabaptist movement. It quickly became very popular and in 1996 already the third edition was published. In our lectures and seminars we only heard about Martin Luther, his life as monk and his conversion, about Luther´s posting of theses in 1517 in Wittenberg, about his central reformatory scriptures in the 1520th and the bible translation. We had to learn the important milestones of the reformation like the Imperial Diets / Reichstage in Worms 1521 and

  • John Bale's Prefaces to Anne Askew's Examinations
    Framing the Reformation Woman Writer: John Bale’s Prefaces to Anne Askew’s Examinations Patricia Pender As a site in which the cultural meanings of female authorship are contested and negotiated, the preface is a key feature of the authorial apparatus that introduces the woman writer to her early modern reading public. John Bale’s prefaces to The Examinations of Anne Askew (1546/7) articulate a strident defence of Askew’s Reformist convictions, positioning her as an exemplary martyr in a ‘primitive’, proto-Protestant English tradition. Providing historical precedent and scriptural justification for both Askew’s authorship and his own role as editor, Bale’s prefaces provide valuable insights into the ways women’s writing was produced, framed, circulated, and promoted for its earliest print audiences. Spatially, formally, and historically, the preface occupies a unique role in the apparatus of authorship. Over the past thirty years, developments in the material history of the book, in formalist literary analysis, and in critical theory have championed the preface as a crucial component of the printed book, as a primary site for authorial self-fashioning, and as a location that most clearly marks and yet also problematizes the complex relationship between text and paratext. In early modern literary studies, these developments have revivified interest in a genre previously neglected as marginal, and renewed attention to the preface’s multiple roles in the production, transmission, and reception of early modern texts.1 In its focus on the preface, this article 1 Wendy Wall’s The Imprint of Gender: Authorship and Publication in the Renaissance (Chicago: Chicago University Press, 1993) offers a fascinating exploration of the preface’s role in negotiating the early modern stigma of print, elaborating allegories of reading and writing, and encoding the erotics of the commodified book.

DESCRIPTORS *Archives; *Authors; *Females; Modern History; Presidents of the United States; Primary Sources; Resource Materials; Social History; *United States History IDENTIFIERS *First Ladies (United States); *Personal Writing; Public Records; Social Power; Twentieth Century; Womens History ABSTRACT This collection of essays about the Presidential wives of the 20th century through Nancy Reagan. An exploration of the records of first ladies will elicit diverse insights about the historical impact of these women in their times. Interpretive theories that explain modern first ladies are still tentative and exploratory. The contention in the essays, however, is that whatever direction historical writing on presidential wives may follow, there is little question that the future role of first ladies is more likely to expand than to recede to the days of relatively silent and passive helpmates. Following a foreword and an introduction, essays in the collection and their authors are, as follows: "Meeting a New Century: The Papers of Four Twentieth-Century First Ladies" (Mary M.
