The Window Volume 20, Issue 70 December 1, 2014 The Episcopal Church of the Nativity The Window Volume 20, Issue 70 December 1, 2014 From the Rector: “Sshhh! Quiet. It’s Advent” read the sign in the hallway. I found it weird to read those words. Certainly, Advent is a season of preparation, of anticipation, of making room in our hearts for the im- pending Nativity of the Lord. Yet, I never really regarded it as a time that was meant for silence. Truthfully, I bristled when I read those words. I’ve never especially liked being shushed. It always feels as though I’m being chastised by a pa- rental figure. I have resisted mightily the urge to tell our children to use their inside voices. But as they grow and the volume level of two toddlers shouting becomes more common at our house, I find myself falling into those same patterns that my parents, and theirs before them, and generations of moms and dads have used. Asking them to hush while others speak has become a regular phrase. I find myself needing some peace in the din. Increasingly, our Christmas season is stretched out before us. By the day the Nativity finally arrives, many of us are almost sick to death of Jingle Bells in the stores, Salvation Army ringers, holiday specials on television, and every other facet of our lives which are penetrated by the Christmas advertising blitz. The noise surrounding this blessed event has grown and grown. I recall fondly a time from my early childhood when stores at least waited until after Thanksgiv- ing to put out Christmas decoration. This year, when I went out shopping for Halloween candy, there were already Christmas displays in multiple stores. Over the years I have found myself becoming more and more of an Advent Grinch, grumbling and complaining about the encroachment of Christ- mas outside of its twelve day season beginning on December 25th. But rather than curse the darkness of the overwhelming drive in our culture to start Christmas in the summer time, this year, I hope to light a candle. In the midst of finalizing the remodeling and then moving into the rectory, Christmas parties, various gift ingatherings, and everything else, I am carving out some intentional time to be quiet. I am making some time to be quiet in the presence of my Father in heaven, so I can tune in to the words he is speaking to his people. I invite you to the same. I pray that in the “busy-ness” of your December that you will join us for worship. Come and hear the stories that make this feast of the church such an extraordinary time. The Old Testament lessons on the Sundays of Advent speak to us of the desire for God to return. The New Testament selections remind us of how to live as though that return were imminent. The Gospel takes us through the ways in which the world was made ready for the coming of the Messiah, the incarnation of our Living God. Each Sunday offers some way to reflect on the annual celebration of the Incarnation of our sav- ior Jesus Christ. Lessons and Carols on December 7th will rehearse the story which we prepare to hear again. If we take our time to prepare, then we can hear the stories as if they were being told for the first time. If we will be quiet and allow the tender voice of God to proclaim the coming of the Lord, then the story of the Nativity can be rich and powerful. If our lives and schedules crowd out our ability to listen intently to the voice of God calling us to “let every heart prepare him room” then we lose the fullness of the joy which comes with this season. May you find the time to prepare to receive the Word made flesh this Christmas.

  • Law, Counsel, and Commonwealth: Languages of Power in the Early English Reformation
    Law, Counsel, and Commonwealth: Languages of Power in the Early English Reformation Christine M. Knaack Doctor of Philosophy University of York History April 2015 2 Abstract This thesis examines how power was re-articulated in light of the royal supremacy during the early stages of the English Reformation. It argues that key words and concepts, particularly those involving law, counsel, and commonwealth, formed the basis of political participation during this period. These concepts were invoked with the aim of influencing the king or his ministers, of drawing attention to problems the kingdom faced, or of expressing a political ideal. This thesis demonstrates that these languages of power were present in a wide variety of contexts, appearing not only in official documents such as laws and royal proclamations, but also in manuscript texts, printed books, sermons, complaints, and other texts directed at king and counsellors alike. The prose dialogue and the medium of translation were employed in order to express political concerns. This thesis shows that political languages were available to a much wider range of participants than has been previously acknowledged. Part One focuses on the period c. 1528-36, investigating the role of languages of power during the period encompassing the Reformation Parliament. The legislation passed during this Parliament re-articulated notions of the realm’s social order, creating a body politic that encompassed temporal and spiritual members of the realm alike and positioning the king as the head of that body. Writers and theorists examined legal changes by invoking the commonwealth, describing the social hierarchy as an organic body politic, and using the theme of counsel to acknowledge the king’s imperial authority.

This trio, together with he had just returned to his post in Naples after four three others born slightly earlier – the Frenchman months in Florence and was busy composing his first Jean-Philippe Rameau and two other Germans (the two operas.

During the first decade of the eighteenth century, Italian opera successfully penetrated the English theatrical tradition, and by 1711, with the premiere of Handel’s Rinaldo, the foreign art had conquered its English audience.2 However, this was not a peaceful conquest. The importation of Italian opera provoked British criticism, censure, and ridicule as it emerged on the London stage. British authors approached their arguments in different ways, some verging on or even embracing xenophobia, others attempting to laugh Italian opera out of the country.

  • 1 Early Years, 1685–1703
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-13925-1 — Bach Peter Williams Excerpt More Information – 1 Early years, 1685 1703: background, family, studies The Obituary is headed ‘the Honourable Johann Sebastian Bach, world- famous in organ-playing, Royal Polish and Electoral Saxon Court Com- poser and Music Director in Leipzig’, and begins Johann Sebastian Bach belongs to a family in all of whose members equally a love for and skill in music seem, as a common gift, to have been imparted by nature. Emanuel Bach, presumably responsible for these words, was familiar with the outlines of his family’s musical history, since quite apart from any anecdotes about it that circulated in the family, his father had spent time around the age of fifty compiling on paper a selective genealogy. This is the ‘Origin of the musical-Bach family’, Ursprung der musicalisch-Bachischen Familie (Dok. I, pp. 255–61), a Genealogy known to Emanuel in whose household it was later copied: a unique source of information about the family tree and, in the sparseness of other evidence, used ever since in all kinds of connections. This is a document, often since referred to as a ‘table’, into which something can be read about the composer, his interests, his industry, even now and then his opinions. Although for reasons that can only be guessed Bach contributed little to the published biographies and autobiographies of the day, he did compile a genealogical list either from scratch after many time-consuming enquiries or, more likely, by revising and enlarging an older document begun by a previous member of this large family.

  • The Hidden Lives of Helen Leishman by Thomas W. Campbell
    The Hidden Lives of Helen Leishman By Thomas W. Campbell Originally published in Women Church: An Australian Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion (No. 33, Spring, 2003), pp. 13-17. ARY HELEN MARGARET LEISHMAN was born at Bunbury Western Australia on 17 April 1902. She died on 7 May 1995 in Launceston, Tasmania. M Helen's fascinating life journey included 22 years of service to the Anglican Church's Melanesian Mission in the Solomons and New Hebrides (now Vanuatu), and then more than 38 years in a Carmelite Monastery, where she died. Along the way nursing Sister Helen Leishman became Sister Madeleine of the Cross, a member of the Anglican Sisterhood, the Community of the Cross, then Sister Mary of the Cross, Carmelite nun within the Roman Catholic church. This is the story of her life up to the time she joined the Carmelite community in Longford Tasmania on 7 December 1953. Helen Leishman was born into a strongly religious family at Bunbury. Several generations of the ancestors of both her father and mother had filled significant positions as clergymen in the Church of Scotland, while some were well known and respected in the medical profession; at least one was an early missionary in Melanesia. Helen was the fifth of nine children (six girls, three boys), one older brother, a twin, not surviving infancy. After early childhood years spent in Coolgardie the family settled on a property near Highbury, a small farming village about 250 kilometres to the south east of Perth WA, the nearest large community being the service town of Narrogin.

  • Mediaeval Monumental Effigies Remaining in Cheshire
    iletttlnl: TITUS WILSON & SON, PRINTERS, 28, HIGHGATE. 1925. TRANSACTIONS. MEDIAEVAL MONUMENTAL EFFIGIES REMAINING IN CHESHIRE. By Fred. H. Crossley, F.S.A., F.R.A.I. Read 14 February, 1924. HE English mediaeval effigy had its beginnings in the T twelfth century, when the pictorial representation on the coffin lid grew, with the artist's power of delineation, from incised work into relief. At first only a flat modelling of the figure cut in arbitrary lines in a sunk panel on the slab, it gradually developed into an effigy surrounded by an architectural setting; then as the influence of the mason ceased to be felt, the setting gradually disappeared and in later periods is but seldom found. During the early part of the mediaeval period mason- craft predominated in effigy making, and during the first half of the thirteenth century no attempt was made to give the effigy a recumbent attitude, the figure being treated as architectural statuary, upright in character, the attitude and drapery being facsimiles of the mason's formula, used in the decoration of the great west fronts of the monastic and cathedral churches erected at that time. The bishops hold a staff and give the benediction, the knights are straight-legged and grasp a sword, the animal at the feet suggesting the corbel upon which the figure stood; the only note of recumbency is a pillow placed beneath the head. After 1240 the recumbent attitude was frankly adopted, and knights were carved with their legs crossed, partly to strengthen the figure at its weakest place, and also to show ease of position.
