SCHOOL LETTER. UR First Duty This Time Is to Apologise Most Humbly to the Public for the Lateness of Our Last Number TH , PETERITE. VOL. XX. JUNE, 1907. No. 180. SCHOOL LETTER. UR first duty this time is to apologise most humbly to the public for the lateness of our last number. This being done, we make our bow and begin. The term began on the 7th of May, that happiest of all months, generally so full of smiles and sun , shine. We say " generally "—we have good cause to do so. The Fates, whose unkindness we were foolish enough to bewail in a recent number, are wreaking manifold revenge for the slight. Each day has seen us shivering at the icy winds which have been blowing, or when it was warm, sheltering from the rain, to which we have now become quite attached. True it is that we have had two fine days—both Sundays. The Cricket has naturally suffered. Three matches have been missed on account of rain, and at the time of writing it seems that others will have to be postponed. Altogether, matters are faring badly with us, and even the Editors feel down- hearted. An account of the Gymnasium Competition and the Sports, both of which took Place last term, will be found elsewhere. An " extra half" was taken on Monday, 27th May, and the Natural History took this opportunity of doing business, and made an expedition to Goathland. Full details of their gambols are chronicled in this number. We are looking forward to the opening of the New Organ. The old Organ is greatly missed, as the " locum tenens" hath not a sweet tongue, although it is most skilfully manipulated. We hope to see a great gathering of Old Boys on Commemoration Day. They will receive a very hearty welcome. In conclusion we would wish the Eleven all success. If the keenness which has been displayed hitherto is anything to go by, a good Cricket season is in prospect for the school. E. D. EDE. R. 0. F. FlusBAND. M. T. CLEGG. W. INGHAM. R. D. FOSTER. D. H. KENNEDY. J. R. SCO-!nr. D. ANDERSON. A. A. PHILLIPS. M. W. PETERS (Capt.) W. H. COLLEY. S. W. PENTY C• TOO THE ANNUAL LONDON O.P. DINNER. TO OLD PETERITES. As announced in the last number of the Peterite, it is intended to hold a social gathering of Old Peterites on the evening of Commemoration Day (29th June). The Headmaster has kindly placed the Gymnasium at the service of the Committee of the Old Peterite Club for this occasion. The special Sub-committee who have the arrangements in hand particularly desire it to be understood that all Old Peterites will be welcome, whether members of the Club or not, and invitations will be sent to any O.P.'s whose names are forwarded to the Secretary for this purpose. The programme of the evening's proceedings will include a short business meeting of the O.P. Club, Music, &c., but it is intended that there shall be ample facilities for free social intercourse. Light refreshments will be provided, a special grant having been made at the last Annual General Meeting to defray the expenses. Old Peterites at a distance who would like to be put up for St. Peter's Day, or for the Prize-giving at the end of term (when it is hoped the new organ will be ready), are asked to communicate with the Headmaster about a week in advance. THE ANNUAL LONDON O.P. DINNER. The Annual London O.P. Dinner is fixed for 7-3o p.m. on Friday, July 5th, at the Holborn Restaurant, W., Professor A. W. Reinold in the chair : Tickets (without wine) 7/6. Further information may be obtained from any one of the Hon. OXFORD LETTER. T or Secretaries :—F. P. Fausset, 1 Essex Court, Temple, E.C. ; R. H. Bailey, 3o Bennett Park, Blackheath, S.E. ; C. H. Chadwick, Stone Buildings, Lincoln's Inn, W.C. It is hoped that all Old Peterites able to attend will do so : also that they will notify any change of address to the Hon. Secretaries at once. OXFORD LETTER. DEAR EDITORS, Since it is fated that I should give some news of Oxford—here it is. I suppose all Peterites have noticed the increasing brilliance of that leader of the Press, the " Daily Mail," but on the morning after " Eight's Week " it surely surpassed itself. It tells how shrieking bands of face-blackened students went forth to burn the Pageant stand. How armies of stealthy-footed policemen, with truncheons drawn, were " shattered and scattered like drifting snow" before the rush of yelling undergrads. How firemen turned streams of darkling Isis on innocent law-abiding undergrads. But we do not do this sort of thing at Oxford. Rags are not the fashion here. Though the " Daily Mail " states that [300 worth of damage was done, the net result of all was, one man hurt by a policeman, many half-drowned by the fire-hose, a few dozen chairs and one small bridge burnt, and two hoses cut. The cause of all this was the regaining of the Headship of the river by Christ Church after 58 years. And now to O. P.'s. Fisher is just about to enter the Schools for the last time. We wish him luck. He has been seen batting at a net on the Queen's ground lately, so his shoulders are evidently getting stronger. It will no doubt be interesting to Peterites, past and present, that E. J. Walton has returned from Burma. He stayed a few IO2 CAMBRIDGE LETTER. days at Oxford during " Eights' Week." The School would do well to get him to play with them next looter season if he is still here and could be persuaded. Baldwin is also taking Finals this term, and will no doubt cover himself with glory. Raimes is working hard, and Lincoln will have the joy of seeing him emerge from Schools successfully. Greenhow is working for Mods., but is also distinguishing himself in the cricket. field. He plays regularly for the First XI. of Hertford, which is very strong this year. Schroeder attempts in his own way to uphold the honour of Hertford in the Second XI. We hear of mammoth scores, but they are no doubt creatures of his own fertile piscatorial brain. Kirby is much occupied by his books, but nevertheless, finds time to play cricket for the Second XI. of Hertford, and bats with his characteristic caution. At tennis he is one of the greatest exponents. Punting is also one of his favourite pastimes, but he has yet to learn the art of steering. The Varsity do not seem to be such a bad side after all. Foster's 163, and Gilbert's eight wickets against a powerful M.C.C. team, which included Trott, Tarrant and Braund, speak for themselves. Our Cambridge friends must look to their laurels. Good luck and better weather to you is the wish of OXON. CAMBRIDGE LETTER. DEAR SIRS, The chief event this term has been the visit of Prince Fushimi to receive an honorary degree. The C.U.R.V. were in great evidence, and Roy and Yeats might have been seen destricto ense ' surrounding the Senate-house. We have heard ORGAN FUND. 103 that Yeats particularly took the Prince's fancy. Little else of importance has taken place this term. The May races commence on June 5th. Roy has just been released from the drudgery of the classical trip. He is at present engaged in making up his arrears of drills. The early riser may see him about 6 a.m., scantily clad and swinging a rifle, hurrying to the drill-ground with a set smile on his face and murder in his eyes. Occasionally he has assisted Jesus at cricket, and he is in his best bowling form. Phillips has seldom been on view this term. We presume he is working. Occasionally, we hear, he tears himself from his books for a short cycle ride, or a game of fives. Yeats is also seldom seen abroad, as the exigencies of his tripos allow him little leisure. He has, however, occasionally indulged in a little tennis, usually on the Sidney courts. His knee is giving him less trouble this term, owing to assiduous massage. Fisher has been smitten with the early-rising fever, and may be seen any hour of the morning from 5-3o eagerly perusing his Hebrew bible. His collection of pottery and china is the delight of his friends and the despair of his bedmaker. He has occasionally been seen at cricket, always fielding. Peters naturally spends the greater part of his time on the cricket field, and has made for himself quite a reputation at Christ's. He is taking the general in June, and as we hear that Yeats has been coaching him, his prospects are decidedly rosy. Tendall is reading law, and has therefore little time to spare for athletics. We have, however, occasionally seen him enjoying a training walk. Jupiter Pluvius is having it all his own way up here, but we trust the school are having a dry season. Yours, O.C. 1 04 THE ORGAN FUND. THE ORGAN FUND. The contract for rebuilding the Organ has been entrusted to Messrs. Compton & Son, Nottingham. The pipes of the old organ, revoiced, which were in excellent condition, will be used : otherwise it will be a new instrument having pneumatic action throughout. It has been found necessary to add automatic blowing worked by an electric motor, as it would have been difficult for a man, and impossible for a boy, to blow the organ by hand.

  • 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.

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.

  • 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.
