  • God's Own Country Is Francis’ First Feature Film Project
    GOD’S OWN COUNTRY A film by Francis Lee UK • 104 min. • 2017 OFFICIAL SELECTION: Sundance Film Festival 2017 Berlin International Film Festival 2017 San Francisco International Film Festival 2017 Provincetown International Film Festival 2017 Outfest Los Angeles 2017 (Opening Night) Distribution Contacts: Samuel Goldwyn Films Ryan Boring, [email protected] ​ New York Publicity Contacts: Cinetic Marketing Ryan Werner, [email protected] ​ Courtney Ott, [email protected] ​ Bingham Bryant, [email protected] ​ God’s Own Country Production Notes ​ Logline Francis Lee’s feature film debut is a contemporary tale of self-discovery and emotional-awakening set on the sheep farming hills of rural England. Synopsis Johnny Saxby works long hours in brutal isolation on his family’s remote farm in the north of England. He numbs the daily frustration of his lonely existence with nightly binge-drinking at the local pub and casual sex. When a handsome Romanian migrant worker arrives to take up temporary work on the family farm, Johnny suddenly finds himself having to deal with emotions he has never felt before. An intense relationship forms between the two which could change Johnny’s life forever. Long Synopsis Spring. Yorkshire. Johnny Saxby (24) carries the weight of his family’s dilapidating sheep farm alone. His formidable grandmother Deirdre (70) is now too old to work the land, whilst his father Martin (50), once a capable farmer, struggles in the aftermath of a stroke. Socially and geographically isolated and overwhelmed by the responsibility, yet too proud to accept any help, Johnny numbs his frustration with drink, dope and casual sex.

  • Alfred the Great and the Pursuit of Wisdom in Anglo-Saxon Spirituality
    THE CATHOLIC UNIVERSITY OF AMERICA Wisdom’s Missionary: Alfred the Great and the Pursuit of Wisdom in Anglo-Saxon Spirituality A DISSERTATION Submitted to the Faculty of the School of Theology and Religious Studies Of the Catholic University of America In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree Doctor of Philosophy By James Andrew Estes Washington, DC 2016 Wisdom’s Missionary: Alfred the Great and the Pursuit of Wisdom in Anglo-Saxon Spirituality James Andrew Estes, PhD Director: Joshua Benson, PhD Co-Director: Lilla Kopár, PhD Abstract Alfred, King of Wessex (r. 871-899), is commonly studied as a military, political, and educational leader and reformer in Anglo-Saxon England, but not as a religious leader, and his cultural reform program’s translation of Latin works into Old English receives little attention in scholarship on Christian spirituality or medieval English vernacular theology. Such inattention is a symptom of the larger problem that Anglo-Saxon Christianity, particularly with regard to its vernacular literature, is often overlooked in the study of medieval Christian spirituality. This dissertation repositions Alfred as an Anglo-Saxon spiritual authority dedicated to teaching and learning for the purpose of Christian spiritual formation. It interprets two texts from Alfred’s reign: the Vita Ælfredi by Asser, and Alfred’s Old English translation of Gregory the Great’s Cura pastoralis. These works are treated as primary theological sources for examining Alfred’s role as a wisdom seeker and spiritual authority. The Vita Ælfredi intentionally depicts Alfred as a kingly wisdom figure with a lifelong devotion to the study of religious literature.

Smith Frontmatter More information THE HEADS OF RELIGIOUS HOUSES ENGLAND AND WALES 1377–1540 This final volume of The Heads of Religious Houses: England and Wales takes the lists of monastic superiors from 1377 to the dissolution of the monastic houses ending in 1540 and so concludes a reference work covering 600 years of monastic history. In addition to surviving monastic archives, record sources have also been provided by episcopal and papal registers, governmental archives, court records, and private, family and estate collections. Full references are given for establishing the dates and outline of the career of each abbot or prior, abbess or prioress, when known. The lists are arranged by order: the Benedictine houses (independent; dependencies; and alien priories); the Cluniacs; the Grandmontines; the Cistercians; the Carthusians; the Augustinian canons; the Premonstratensians; the Gilbertine order; the Trinitarian houses; the Bonhommes; and the nuns. An intro- duction discusses the use and history of the lists and examines critically the sources on which they are based. david m. smith is Professor Emeritus, University of York. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86508-1 - The Heads of Religious Houses England and Wales III, 1377-1540 Edited by David M.

    BFI London Film Festival announces first ever Premiere outside London with Manchester Special Presentation of Mike Leigh’s PETERLOO Embargo: Thursday 16th August – Wide 10:00am LONDON, Thursday 16th August: The 62nd BFI London Film Festival in partnership with American Express® is thrilled to announce the UK Premiere of Mike Leigh’s PETERLOO live from HOME in Manchester, followed by a Q&A, simulcast to cinemas around the UK, on Wednesday 17 October. The premiere will be attended by Leigh and members of the cast. On Friday 19th October the film will also screen in London, with a Q+A afterwards with Mike Leigh. Distributed by Entertainment One (eOne), PETERLOO tells the story of the Peterloo massacre, which took place 199 years ago today, on 16 August 1819, and stars Rory Kinnear, Maxine Peake, Neil Bell, Philip Jackson, Vincent Franklin, Karl Johnson and Tim McInnerny. The screening represents the first time the BFI London Film Festival has premiered a film outside of the capital, offering audiences in Manchester and nationwide the opportunity to preview a major release with Manchester’s history at its forefront. Written and directed by Mike Leigh, PETERLOO is an epic portrayal of the events surrounding the infamous 1819 Peterloo Massacre, where a peaceful pro-democracy rally at St Peter's Field in Manchester turned into one of the bloodiest and most notorious episodes in British history. The massacre saw British government forces charge into a crowd of over 60,000 that had gathered to demand political reform and protest against rising levels of poverty. Many protestors were killed and hundreds more injured, sparking a nationwide outcry but also further government suppression.

    ~~1on1inie-,its nncl Tombs in Olcl St. Pciul's Oatheclral. 23[) ART. III.-THE MONUMENTS AND TOMBS IN OLD ST. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL. T. PAUL'S CATHEDRAL, with its exquisitely pro­ portioned dome, a grand conception nobly carried out, mayS well be, as it, is, the pride of the citizens of London. The spectacle of the vast congregation, filling choir and nave, crowding the central area, and overflowing into the transepts, and even into the choir aisles; hushed into entire silence when, in the midst of the great Passion music, there is a pause for private lJtayer, or joining with heart and voice in some familiar hymn, is a sight that probably cannot be t:iur­ passed in Christendom. The building lacks but one thing- the charm of antiquity. · When the "Great and Dreadful Fire" of 16li6 desolated London the destruction of Old St. Paul's inflicted upon the history of the country, upon lovers of architecture and art, a loss which is simply irreparable. But for Dugda,le's "History of St. PauPs," with its rich store of illustrations by Hollar, we sboulcl not be able to appreciate the extent of that loss, or the grandeur of the ancient structure. In his pages we can see tbe massive nave, the lofty spire, the tombs of kings, of warriors, statesmen, bishops, filling the solemn aisles, monu­ ments of remarkable beauty and of rich historic interest. Kindly. reader, will you let me be your guide round Old St. Paul's? May I lay aside all formality, and take you by the band, and pass leisueely around the long-drawn aisles, pausing at each important monument, and trying to recall some of its venerable associations.
