They are portrayed as never so happy as when they are preaching, and so it is not sUrprising that a centUry later in 1853 W. J. Conybeare caricatUred the evangelical clergyman as being ‘oUt of his element in a parish … what he likes is, not a parish, bUt a congregation. The possession of a chapel in a large town, which he may fill with his disciples, is his idea of clerical UsefUlness’. 2 This statement may reflect the fact that at that time the rise of Anglo- Catholicism and introdUction of the trappings of the Unreformed ChUrch of Rome had caUsed many evangelical lay people to petition for a chUrch where the style of worship woUld continUe to reflect the simplicity of the Book of Common Prayer. In many cases bishops were relUctant to allow new parishes to be carved oUt of the existing ones, and so if we take the case of Jesmond Parish ChUrch in Newcastle it was initially proposed that the new chUrch shoUld be foUnded as a proprietary chapel. Similarly, at the other end of the coUntry, when an evangelical philanthropist desired to endow a chUrch, vicarage and school in the parish of Ware becaUse the incUmbent had adopted Anglo-Catholic practices, the diocesan aUthorities initially sUggested that a proprietary chapel woUld be preferable.

  • Runaway Wives: Husband Desertion in Medieval England
    RUNAWAY WIVES: HUSBAND DESERTION IN MEDIEVAL ENGLAND By Sara Butler Loyola University New Orleans Scholars of the medieval family would generally agree that the lot of the me- dieval wife was not an easy one. Medieval husbands held the upper hand in the power relationship, both legally and socially. Although Lawrence Stone's view of niarried life in the Middle Ages as "brutal and often hostile, with little communication, [and] much wife-beating" has since been called into question, more recent historians have still painted a somewhat unflattering picture.' Ju- dith Bennett writes that "[m]edieval people thought of conjugality as a hierar- chy headed by a husband who not only controlled his wife's financial assets and public behavior, but also freely enforced his will through physical violence."^ Indeed, she argues that wife-beating was "a normal part of marriage."^ Even Bar- bara Hanawalt, who has optimistically described peasant marriage in medieval England as a partnership, still concedes that occasional violence was acceptable and expected in marriage.'' What is more, the rules of coverture, which adhered to the biblical principal of husband and wife as one flesh represented at law by the husband, left a wife economically vulnerable. Because all real and movable property legally belonged to the husband as head of the household, a wife who fell out of favor with her husband might well find herself expelled from the family home, without any resources to fall back on.^ From a modern perspective, mari- tal practices hardly provided any sense of reassurance. At a time when families, more often than individuals, took the lead in spousal selection, and inheritance and status were the chief criteria, strong bonds of affection were not guaranteed.

  • There Are Few Books on Depression That Draw Together Insights from the Fields of Pastoral Care, Biblical Teaching and Clinica
    ‘There are few books on depression that draw together insights from the fields of pastoral care, biblical teaching and clinical psychiatry with such straight- forward clarity and practical wisdom. Written with the everyday needs in mind of those who battle with this condition, Encountering Depression is a one-stop resource for both sufferers and carers and all those who seek to offer them pastoral counsel and support.’ Glynn Harrison MD FRCPsych, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, University of Bristol ‘Many therapists, myself included, have often found their depressed Christian clients among the most difficult to help. For such clients, it has often seemed that their belief system and the practice of their faith have proved impedi- ments rather than aids to accepting the reality of their predicament and to finding through it a new humility, a hope which goes beyond despair and a freedom from destructive guilt and stubborn autonomy. Andrew and Elizabeth Procter’s book provides a powerful antidote to the false theology and the ingrained attitudes which intensify for many Christians the suffering which depression inevitably brings. In simple and direct language they address key questions, provide a mine of information, offer helpful guidance for both scripture reading and private meditation, and list a host of reliable resources. This is a book not only for Christians who know the burden of depression in their own lives but also for their relatives, friends, pastors and co-religionists. The Procters have provided a treasure house of wisdom which, if taken seriously, could transform many a congregation into a truly empathic community where God’s love could permeate into the darkest recesses of the depression experience.’ Brian Thorne, Emeritus Professor of Counselling, University of East Anglia, and Lay Canon of Norwich Cathedral ‘I just couldn’t put it down! This is a “must have” book and, almost frustrat- ingly, I agreed with every word.

  • 318 the MONTH. 'THE Second Reading of the Burials Bill Was Carried, As We Expected, by a Decisive Majority. the Bishop of Lincol
    318 THE MONTH. 'THE second reading of the Burials Bill was carried, as we expected, by a decisive majority. The Bishop of Lincoln, in -0pposing the Bill, was supported by Viscount Cranbrook in an eloquent speech; but the Archbishops, followed by eight Bishops,1 voted for the second reading. In introducing the Bill in the Upper House, the Government showed a wise discretion. Lord Chancellor Selborne is greatly respected among loyal Church­ men, particularly, perhaps, among the majority of the clergy ; and his conciliatory speech smoothed the way for a consideration of the Bill, which as it stood was by no means a mere reprint of the Liberationist programme. The clerical relief provisions were welcomed by many Church Reformers as at the least a step in the right direction. In Committee, on the 1 5th, several amendments were proposed. ·The Earl of Mount-Edgcumbe proposed the insertion in line 13, after " place," of the words " where there is no unconsecrated burial-ground or cemetery in which the parishioners or inhabitants have rights of burial." The Lord Chancellor objected that this amendment would draw a line between parish and parish through­ out the kingdom. In one parish a Nonconformist would be able to avail himself of the provisions of the Act; in an adjoining parish a Nonconformist would not be able to do so. The Archbishop of York, in supporting the amendment, remarked that a line be­ tween parish and parish already existed. On a division there appeared-Contents, 130; Non-contents, ro6; by a majority of 24, therefore, this important amendment was carried.

Lucien D. Houle When Thomas Bisson, one of the foremost scholars in the field of medieval lordship, wrote about medieval power and politics, he mused about how the study of this kind of history changed from one generation to the next. Between the time of his parents’ generation and that of his own, historians who were concerned with power began to recognize the importance of women and started to ask questions about regular people, not just kings. His awakening came when he read the primary sources themselves.

  • Richard of Chilham and an Inheritance in Kent

The discovery of the heart in 1939, during excavations at the abbey, and its re-interment in 1952, were recorded in tMs journal.1 Rose's life, her stmggles to hold on to her inheritance, and her difficulties with her feckless husband, the royal bastard Ricliard of CMlham, are not only a little-known chapter in the history of an important Kent estate; they also illuminate the problems of an heiress in the tMrteenth century, who lost control of her lands to her husband, and the unusual measures wMch the king took to protect Rose from her husband's financial d i f f i c u l t i e s . In addition, it may be useful to try to disentangle the confusion about Richard, who was also known as Richard son of the king, Richard de Warenne and Ricliard of Dover (leading writers like Hasted to tMnk that Rose had several husbands named Richard, wMle Dugdale confused Ricliard with Ms half-brother, Ricliard of Cornwall). There is a further problem of distinguisMng Richard from Ms son and grandson, both called Ricliard of Dover.2 Fortunately, Rose of Dover's ancestiy is fairly clear, linking her to two families who were sigmficant landowners in Kent (Fig.

Ph.D. thesis, Canterbury Christ Church University. Contact: [email protected] THE DAUGHTERS OF HENRY III by Abigail Sophie Armstrong Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2018 ii Abstract This thesis examines Henry III and Eleanor of Provence’s three daughters: Margaret, Beatrice and Katherine. It is a comparative study of their lives and relationships with their parents, arguing that the English king and queen cared greatly for the welfare and prosperity of their daughters from birth. These close family bonds continued after the daughters’ marriages and departures for their husbands’ courts, and both Henry and Eleanor continued to be strong influences in their daughters’ adult lives. This study contributes to the historiography concerning the role of medieval royal daughters. It demonstrates that Margaret and Beatrice were not forgotten about by their natal family following their nuptials but, rather, these relationships continued, and their new marital families were quickly integrated within the larger English royal family.
