Index of Heads Cambridge University Press 0521804523 - The Heads of Religious Houses: England and Wales, 940-1216 - Second Edition Edited by David Knowles, C. N. L. Brooke and Vera C. M. London Index More information INDEX OF HEADS This index is solely a list of heads, the information being kept to a minimum for convenience in use. The order is based on Christian names, with abbots before priors, abbesses before prioresses, and in alphabetical order of their houses: surnames are always in parentheses and ignored in the order. The arrangement means that heads who moved from house to house occur twice: thus Adam, pr. Bermondsey, later abb. Evesham, appears under each, but with a cross-reference. Square brackets enclosing the name of a house indicate that the head moved to it later than and his name is not, therefore, to be found in the list for that house. Names occurring in earlier printed lists which we have eliminated are in italics; names due to scribal error are in inverted commas (with cross-reference to the correct form); and names queried in the lists are queried here.

  • Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education
    Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education by Youngmin Song A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Theology of the University of St. Michael’s College and the Graduate Centre for Theological Studies of the Toronto School of Theology. In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology awarded by the University of St. Michael’s College. © Copyright by Youngmin Song 2018 Toward an Ecological Conversion: Ecospiritual Literacy for Developing Roman Catholic Ecological Education Youngmin Song Doctor of Philosophy in Theology University of St. Michael’s College 2018 Abstract The root of the current ecological crisis is a spiritual one and demands a genuine ecological conversion. In response to this call, the dissertation attempts to develop a model of Roman Catholic ecological education which seeks an integral development of thoughts, feelings, and actions. For this purpose, the study proposes ecospiritual literacy as a conceptual foundation of Roman Catholic ecological education and develops its basic principles which collectively inspire ecological conversion. Based on an evolutionary cosmology which is concerned with both the physical and spiritual dimensions of the larger reality, the concept of ecospiritual literacy encourages learners to understand how they are deeply embedded within the larger world, to sense the divine sacredness which all of creation reveals, and to participate in their role for enhancing the sacred community of creation. With its emphasis on seeing the whole aspect of the larger reality, ecospiritual literacy enables Roman Catholic ecological education to highlight Earth as an active subject (i.e., as our primary teacher) that reveals ecological and spiritual messages.

  • The Dissemination of Visions of the Otherworld in Thirteenth-Century
    The dissemination of visions of the otherworld in England and northern France c.1150-c.1321 Christopher Thomas John Wilson Submitted by Christopher Thomas John Wilson to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in April 2012. This thesis is available for library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approvedfor the award of a degree by this or any other University. Abstract This thesis examines the dissemination of visions of the otherworld in the long thirteenth century (c.1150-1321) by analysing the work of one enthusiast for such visions, Helinand of Froidmont, and studying the later transmission of three, contrasting accounts: the vision of the monk of Eynsham (c.1196), the vision of St. Fursa (c.656) and the vision of Gunthelm (s.xiiex). It relies on a close reading and comparison of different versions of these visions as they appear in exempla collections, religious miscellanies, history chronicles and sermons. In considering the process of redaction, it corrects two imbalances in the recent scholarship: a focus on searching for, then discussing ‘authorial’ versions of the narratives and a tendency among students of literature to treat visions of the otherworld as an independent sub-genre, prefiguring Dante’s later masterpiece. Instead, by looking at the different responses of a number of authors and compilers to visions of the otherworld, this thesis shows how they interacted with other elements of religious culture.

    INTRODUCTION The Vita Wulfstani is here printed in full for the first time. In the first edition, that of Henry Wharton, published in 1692, about two- fifths of the Life were omitted.1 Most of the portions suppressed are accounts of miracles which contain some valuable information, but a number of other passages were left out without notice to the reader. Wharton's text was reprinted by Mabillon 2 and Migne,3 but no attempt has been made hitherto to examine the Life with the care required to show its relation to other historical literature of the period. The plan of this edition is to print first the full text of the Vita as preserved in MS. Cott. Claud. A.v. in the British Museum * 1 Anglia Sacra, II, pp. 239 seq. 'Ada Ord. Bened., Saec. VI, ii., p. 836. 3 Patrologia Latina, Vol. 179, p. 1734. 4 MS. Cott. Claud. A.v. is a small volume, 9! in. by 6| in., originally somewhat larger than at present, and seems to comprise three books which once existed separately. The first two are a fourteenth-century Peterborough Chronicle and a twelfth-century copy of William of Malmesbury's Gesta Pontificum, per- haps the best.extant MS. of the first recension. The former is certainly and the latter probably from the Library of Peterborough Abbey. The proven- ance of the third—fo. 135 to the end—is unknown.

  • The Classics in the Middle Ages
    The Classics in the Middle Ages Papers of the Twentieth Annual Conference of the Center Jor Medieval and Early Renaissance Studies Edited by Aldo S. Bernardo Saul Levin meDieval & Renaissance 'texts & scoöies Center for Medieval & Early Renaissance Studies Binghamton, New York 1990 PLENARY LECTURE "Potens in opere et serrnone": Philip, Bishop of Bayeux, and His Books * R. H. ROUSE AND M. A. ROUSE In contrasting the world of monastic learning with that of the cathedral schools, Sir Richard Southern said of the twelfth-century student, "He not only knew where to study, he also knew that his studies would have a market value." The schools, in Southern's words, "brought the idea of ... order and rationality into every area of human experience!' In the early twelfth century, "slowly the ruling households of Europe, at alllev- els from the papal court to the household of a minor baron, were penetrat- ed by men calling themselves masters, or as we should say, university men." This theme, the significant place of the schools in the formation of the twelfth-century state, permeates Southern's study of the period. I The key role of the northern French cathedral schools in the growth of Anglo- Norman administration - civil and ecclesiastic - is a near text- book example, which no doubt was very much in Southern's thinking when he wrote these statements. Names come to mind almost unbid- den: John of Salisbury, Arnulf of Lisieux, Hugh of Amiens, Rotrou of Rouen, Gilbert Foliot, Gerald of Wales-men whose ascent up the Anglo- Norman ladder depended on schooling as well as (or even instead of) birth.

  • THE ARCHBISHOPRIC of YORK 1139-1154 Thurstan Was a Successful and Energetic Archbishop Who Had Welcomed the Cistercians to Yorkshire at Rievaulx and Fountains in 1132
    LIONEL GREEN tells the strange story (which has Merton connections) of THE ARCHBISHOPRIC OF YORK 1139-1154 Thurstan was a successful and energetic archbishop who had welcomed the Cistercians to Yorkshire at Rievaulx and Fountains in 1132. After serving for a quarter of a century he wished to resign in 1139, and had in mind to stand down in favour of his brother Ewan, bishop of Evreux. Thurstan sent Richard, the second abbot of Fountains, to Rome to attend the second Lateran Council and to obtain from Innocent II permission for Ewan’s election to the primacy. Ewan was a good and popular choice, as he was “ranked amongst the most learned men of his day”.1 He had been a favourite of Henry I, and at his death accompanied the king’s body from Normandy to Reading in December 1135. Ewan the elect came to Merton to await the decision of the pope, and took the habit of a canon of Merton, but died on 2 July 1139 “in the college of the canons of Merton where he was buried”.2 England was denied the services of an eminent man as archbishop of York. Seven months later, on 6 February 1140, Thurstan also died, and this is the story of how the Church suffered to find a suitable successor. Although “a small beginning, the strife came to involve almost every person of importance in England, and many on the continent, and lasted in its ramifications for some twenty years”.3 Waldef prior of Kirkham (Augustinian) was a favoured candidate but was vetoed by king Stephen on political grounds, as he was a stepson of king David of Scotland.4 Henry de Sully, abbot of Fécamp, was then put forward with the support of the pope’s legate Henry of Winchester, but Sully was reluctant to leave his abbey, and Innocent II refused to allow him to hold two offices.
