Aspects of the Public Debate about Praying in Early Modern England: Printed Sources in English for the Anglican Theology of Prayer 1641 -1700 Richard John Ginn University of Durham Department of Theology M. Litt. Thesis 2003 OCT 2004 2 Richard John Ginn: Aspects of the Public Debate about Praying in Early Modern England: Printed Sources in English for the Anglican Theology of Prayer 1641 - 1700 ABSTRACT This thesis investigates Anglican understandings of prayer, as expressed in printed material originating from the years 1641-1700. Besides surveying the range of comment and teaching, this enquiry gathers the concerns of the period into categories within which historical and theological reflection reveal the vitality and the shortcomings of the parochial life of the Church of England. The development of the theology of prayer in the Anglican Church throughout this era is charted and analysed. The life of the Church of England is presented as an amalgam of official requirements and local custom. It is shown that far from Anglican worship being stereotypical, the actual reality of congregational life was of great variety across the parishes. The interpenetration of formal and popular culture in the life of the local parish church is presented in the enthusiasm for both the Book of Common Prayer and the Sternhold and Hopkins Metrical Psalter. The concern of the Church of England for the devotional lives of the population is shown to have reached beyond the doors of the churches. Support, teaching and advice was provided on private and family prayer. It is emphasised that family and private prayer were regarded as being obligatory. After the turmoil of the Civil War and Interregnum, the theological instinct of the Church of England was for a renewed society anchored in the devotional experience of the presence of God. The dimensions of the congregational apprehension of the divine presence are investigated within the constructs of a posited aural community. A model is suggested by which it could have been regarded that the interweaving of so many elements of prayer and worship on earth were bound up with the perceived offering of eternal praise in heaven. 3 Declaration All of the material contained in this thesis is the work of the author.

When the Church engages in heart-searching about its mission and its role in a changing world, it can learn from its history. Just as our identity as individuals is the product of all our experiences and relationships, so, too, the Church's identity is the product of all it has passed through in its history. That history, critically reflected upon and selectively assimilated, becomes tradition - the very blood-stream of the Church's life.

Somehow my supervisor, Professor Alan Ford, did not give up on my remarkably protracted labours, and the University of Durham has been graciously flexible in accommodating the successive and severe personal problems that delayed writing and completion. I am pleased to record the support and encouragement that I received from my late mother, Dorothy, whose gentle words often sustained my commitment to these studies. This research has principally used the collections at the Bodleian Library, the British Library, Cambridge University Library, Canterbury Cathedral Library, Dr Williams's Library, Lambeth Palace Library, and York Minster Library. The patience and helpfulness of their staffs have been enormously appreciated. Living and working about one hundred miles from the nearest national libraries of London or Cambridge has entailed frequent recourse to local library facilities. Acknowledgement must therefore be made to the staff at Saxmundham Public Library who excelled in their cheerful willingness to deal with my enquiries and requests for Inter-Library Loans. 7 Foreword A personal element has been present in this study since its inception. A comment made by Canon David Wheaton during a chapel address whilst he was Principal of Oak Hill Theological College in London, in about 1976, to the effect that: 'Parishes are always asking for us to send them people who can teach them how to pray', lodged in my mind and resurfaced again and again. Over the years, the question gradually emerged for me as to whether it was possible to delineate an Anglican doctrine of prayer. When this question was coupled with my excitement at the personal discovery of the pastoral writing of the second half of the seventeenth century, it seemed natural to want to explore the identity of Anglican theology of prayer within that historical period I also felt that the investigation of the contours of this subject in the second half of the seventeenth century would have the added benefit of yielding a richer understanding of the Prayer Book of 1662, the use of which is very much part of my life. The results of this enquiry have enriched my awareness of my vocation as a parson in rural Suffolk, and have enabled me to appreciate the heritage and devotional practices of a significant segment of the Church of England. The fact of ongoing liturgical revision can be more effectively embraced from a basis of the understanding acquired through this study. 8 Chapter 1 : Introduction This thesis derives from a survey of printed literature containing evidence of the Anglican perspectives of prayer in the period 1641-1700. The themes, concerns and leading ideas of this large deposit of material have been given a structure and related to features of the life of the parochial system of England. The many angles of perception reflected in this study include the voices of centralised authority within diocese and nation, as well as haphazard indications of life at parish level. Accordingly there emerges an interesting interpenetration of official requirement and voluntary sincerity. RATIONALE FOR THIS STUDY Given the layout of events in the last fifty years of the seventeenth century, it was clearly necessary to phase in this study from the introductory perspective of the 1640's. Within the period 1641-1700, the Church of England was faced with rapidly changing circumstances which compelled exploration of its own identity and which required the explanation of Anglican practice. A recent study has affirmed that there was a definite shift in the presentation of material after 1660. Religious teaching was simplified to aid popular communication.1 Within the period 1641-1700, Anglican practice was successively proscribed, then established as a monopoly, and was finally plunged into a legitimated Protestant pluralism Within such a sequence of rapid change, it is possible to examine Anglican understanding from many different perspectives. A political investigation might explore the whole ambit from the constitutional significance of the Established Church at a national level to the teaching of submission to those in authority from local pulpits.

  • Stoic Enlightenments
    Copyright © 2011 Margaret Felice Wald All rights reserved STOIC ENLIGHTENMENTS By MARGARET FELICE WALD A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in English written under the direction of Michael McKeon and approved by ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2011 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Stoic Enlightenments By MARGARET FELICE WALD Dissertation Director: Michael McKeon Stoic ideals infused seventeenth- and eighteenth-century thought, not only in the figure of the ascetic sage who grins and bears all, but also in a myriad of other constructions, shaping the way the period imagined ethical, political, linguistic, epistemological, and social reform. My dissertation examines the literary manifestation of Stoicism’s legacy, in particular regarding the institution and danger of autonomy, the foundation and limitation of virtue, the nature of the passions, the difference between good and evil, and the referentiality of language. Alongside the standard satirical responses to the ancient creed’s rigor and rationalism, seventeenth- and eighteenth-century poetry, drama, and prose developed Stoic formulations that made the most demanding of philosophical ideals tenable within the framework of common experience. Instead of serving as hallmarks for hypocrisy, the literary stoics I investigate uphold a brand of stoicism fit for the post-regicidal, post- Protestant Reformation, post-scientific revolutionary world. My project reveals how writers used Stoicism to determine the viability of philosophical precept and establish ways of compensating for human fallibility. The ambivalent status of the Stoic sage, staged and restaged in countless texts, exemplified the period’s anxiety about measuring up to its ideals, its efforts to discover the plenitude of ii natural laws and to live by them.

  • A Treasure of Christian Devotion’: the Book of Common Prayer and Domestic Piety in Georgian England
    ‘A TREASURE OF CHRISTIAN DEVOTION’: THE BOOK OF COMMON PRAYER AND DOMESTIC PIETY IN GEORGIAN ENGLAND Andrew Braddock Introduction Georgian England saw the golden age of The Book of Common Prayer. In the words of Jeremy Gregory, this was a period during which the Prayer Book ‘shaped English religious and social life in ways which it had not done before and has not done since’.1 Far more than simply a book of services, its familiar words marked key moments in people’s lives as they brought their children to be baptised, exchanged their marriage vows, or buried their dead. The Prayer Book was the touchstone of the Church’s doctrine and, in its Catechism, provided instruction in the Christian faith. It offered spiritual counsel for the sick, the penitent and the dying, and through its prayers and rubrics reminded the whole community of their duties to God and one other. In addition, as Jonathan Clark seminal work English Society 1660-1832 highlighted, the close relationship between the monarchy, the aristocracy and the Church of England meant that the political establishment was an Anglican establishment in which fidelity to the Prayer Book was presented as a mark of political as well as religious loyalty.2 In exploring this period, historians have, unsurprisingly, been drawn to examining the Prayer Book’s defining role in public worship and to exploring the lively debates that surrounded eighteenth-century proposals for its revision.3 By contrast, far less attention has been given to the role of the Prayer Book in domestic devotion. A number of historians, including Norman Sykes, Charles Smyth, William Jacob, Jeremy Gregory, and William Gibson, have highlighted its use for family prayers.

  • The 1641 Lords' Subcommittee on Religious Innovation
    A “Theological Junto”: the 1641 Lords’ subcommittee on religious innovation Introduction During the spring of 1641, a series of meetings took place at Westminster, between a handful of prominent Puritan ministers and several of their Conformist counterparts. Officially, these men were merely acting as theological advisers to a House of Lords committee: but both the significance, and the missed potential, of their meetings was recognised by contemporary commentators and has been underlined in recent scholarship. Writing in 1655, Thomas Fuller suggested that “the moderation and mutual compliance of these divines might have produced much good if not interrupted.” Their suggestions for reform “might, under God, have been a means, not only to have checked, but choked our civil war in the infancy thereof.”1 A Conformist member of the sub-committee agreed with him. In his biography of John Williams, completed in 1658, but only published in 1693, John Hacket claimed that, during these meetings, “peace came... near to the birth.”2 Peter Heylyn was more critical of the sub-committee, in his biography of William Laud, published in 1671; but even he was quite clear about it importance. He wrote: Some hoped for a great Reformation to be prepared by them, and settled by the grand committee both in doctrine and discipline, and others as much feared (the affections of the men considered) that doctrinal Calvinism being once settled, more alterations would be made in the public liturgy... till it was brought more near the form of Gallic churches, after the platform of Geneva.3 A number of Non-conformists also looked back on the sub-committee as a missed opportunity.
