ED I NB U RG H AND LO N DON PREFACE THE letters of whi ch thi s volume consists had ’ begun to appear in my brother s lifetime , with hi s l fu l consent and approval , as a series of s e criti articles . He had indeed him elf se n and e ci se d the earliest of them . The recipi nt of the letters consulted me as to their publication in - book form , and as my brother left me in his will the whole of his papers and manuscripts , I feel that he intended me to have the full responsibility of using my discretion as to publication . In the present case it is perfectly clear to me that it was his wish and intention that the letters should appear , while I have no doubt that he would have sanctioned their appearance in the form of a book . Moreover , on reading them , it seemed to me that they illustrate in a very peculiar way some ’ not of my brother s most marked characteristics , only his enthusiasm and swift expressiveness , but vi SPIRITUAL LETTERS TO A CONVERT his eager desire to respond to every call and claim for sympathy and interest , as well as his i grace of loyal and continuous kindness . He sa d once that he could not prop -that people came to him and passed on . This may sometimes have been true , but I think it was generally his ! consultants who passed on , and not himself I have been allowed to see more than one series of his letters , and there is never any Sign of his so care and sympathy failing , long as they were needed and desired . It is not here my concern to endorse all the Opinions my brother expressed ; but I was never hi m out of sympathy with , though I do not think and believe as he did . I do in any case most heartily desire the frankest expressions of faith and belief , and especially when anyone not only holds a creed , but translates it into daily life as - eagerly and single heartedly as my brother did . We ought to do all we can to understand and ’ appreciate another s point of view , and most of all when that corresponds to a faithful and beautiful handling and interpreting of life . That is our best and only chance of arriving at a substantial Christian unity and an active fellow i n ship noble aims . And thus I am glad that PREFACE this glimpse should be given of an inner life full ’ um both of fire and music , as my brother s life e e doubtedly was , and as thes lett rs most clearly testify .

EDITO R ’ S I NT RODU CTI ON MAY I explain very shortly how this book comes to be published About a year ago I was asked by the Editor ri Rosar M a azi ne of the Ame can y g , as an old and friend early convert of Monsignor Benson , to s write a paper about him for the Ro ary . It was a commission from whi ch I should certai nly have shrunk had it not occurred to me that it would — - be possible remembering a long ago perm i ssion — he had given me to let Monsign or Benson speak for himself in words far more effective than any of mine , by quoting certain ex tracts from the letters which it had been my l privi ege to receive from him , as friend and ! Spiritual Director, since the days when we were o b th Anglicans . The proofs of this article , Monsignor Benson ” - as a Letter Writer, were approved by him in New York in April 1 9 1 4 ; and when I sent him the si x a copy of magazine , some weeks later, he wrote (a nd I h 0pe -I almost dare to b e x SPIRITUAL LETTERS TO A CONVERT — lieve he would say the same of this book to-day) I think it is perfectly delightful a great deal : too kind and appreciative , of course but in excellent taste . I have no criticisms ; but only ” gratitude . After this , the Editor asked for more such 1v1n hi s articles ; and , in g g permission (at the 1 1 end of June 9 4) for me to compile several more , Monsignor Benson approved unreservedly of the i al lines which I had la d down , and on which one it was possible to proceed . The recipient of the letters must be anonymous , and entirely conceal ri all clues to identity . Nothing personal or p vate was ! to be published , but only such passages as might have been written to any convert , gener l a al y spe king .

  • Debating National Identity in Utopian Fiction (Morris, Benson, Read)
    TRAMES, 2011, 15(65/60), 3, 300–316 DEBATING NATIONAL IDENTITY IN UTOPIAN FICTION (MORRIS, BENSON, READ) Maxim Shadurski University of Edinburgh Abstract. This paper explores the mechanism of interaction between major themes and concerns which featured in discussions of national identity, and their interpretation in the utopian novels of William Morris, Robert Hugh Benson, and Herbert Read. Arguing that News from Nowhere, The Dawn of All, and The Green Child (and, by extension, utopian fiction as a genre) contain mediated responses to current debates about the nation, the paper analyses the historical context of the timeframe between 1891 and 1935, and the methodological dichotomy of utopia and ideology which it attempts to overcome. The next three sections examine how organization of time lends itself to the interpretation of the utopian novels vis-à-vis major issues and stresses of debates surrounding national identity. It is concluded that utopian fiction as a conventional mouthpiece of radical transformations is capable of giving voice to the mutable discourse of a dominant ideology and debating the national agenda with nearly equal force. Keywords: utopian fiction, national identity, utopia, ideology, organization of time, temporal finality DOI: 10.3176/tr.2011.3.05 1. Introduction The utopian fiction authored by William Morris (1834–1896), Robert Hugh Benson (1871–1914), and Herbert Read (1893–1968) spans several decades of British political and socio-cultural history. Insofar as the years between the publication of Morris’s News from Nowhere in 1891, Benson’s The Dawn of All in 1911 and Read’s The Green Child in 1935 encompassed such conventionally complete and arguably sufficient epochs as the Victorian Age, the Edwardian period, and the inter-war years, the whole timeframe from 1891 till 1935 resists being designated as one period.

Focusing on the period of 1910-1939, the present study explores the terms and strategies whereby utopian visions of a World State, premised on religion or universal governance, engage with, and contribute to, constructions of England as a specific topography, with a political culture, social hierarchies, religious sensibilities, and literary tradition.

  • Unenglish and Unmanly: Anglo-Catholicism and Homosexuality
    UnEnglish and Unmanly: Anglo-Catholicism and Homosexuality By David Hilliard ESPITE THE TRADITIONAL teaching of the Christian Church that homosexual behaviour is always sinful, there are grounds for believing Dthat Anglo-Catholic religion within the Church of England has offered emotional and aesthetic satisfactions that have been particularly attractive to members of a stigmatised sexual minority. This apparent connection between Anglo-Catholicism and the male homosexual subculture in the English-speaking world has often been remarked upon, but it has never been fully explored. In 1960, for example, in a pioneering study of male homosexuality in Britain, Gordon Westwood stated: Some of the contacts maintained that the highest proportion of homosexuals who are regular churchgoers favoured the Anglo-Catholic churches. ... It was not possible to confirm that suggestion in this survey, but it is not difficult to understand that the services with impressive ceremony and large choirs are more likely to appeal to homosexuals.1 More recently, in the United States, several former priests of the Episcopal church have described some of the links between homosexual men and Catholic forms of religion, on the basis of their own knowledge of Anglo-Catholic parishes.2 This essay brings together some of the historical evidence of the ways in which a homosexual sensibility has expressed itself within Anglo-Catholicism. Because of the fragmentary and ambiguous nature of much of this evidence only a tentative outline can be suggested. I Until the late nineteenth century homosexuality was socially defined in terms of certain forbidden sexual acts, such as “buggery” or “sodomy.”3 1 Gordon Westwood, A Minority: A Report on the Life of the Male Homosexual in Great Britain (London; Longmans, 1960), pp.

  • Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson
    MONSIGNOR ROBERT HUGH BENSON Father Martindale is to be trusted on this. His life puts before us a chainsmoking, novel­writing man of God, incapable of treachery. The clerical novelist is scarcely a latter­day phenomenon. Not only priests but Princes of the Church have turned to fiction. In the last century, both Newman and Wiseman wrote novels, as in this did Cardinal Spellman (The Foundling), though with somewhat less effect. One of the most gifted and energetic of priest story tellers was Monsignor Robert Hugh Benson. Benson was born in 1871, his father was to become Archbishop of Canterbury and Hugh himself took Anglican Orders but eventually was drawn to the Roman Catholic Church. At first disdainful of Rome, he followed a route that had been charted earlier by Newman and the scores of converts who came in his wake. Newman and his fellows in the Oxford Movement sought to see the English Church as part of the Catholic Church, emphatically not a Protestant sect, but, for many, history and theology eroded this position until there was nothing left to do but turn to Rome. Half a century later, Robert Hugh Benson began with the same conviction about the Anglican Church as Catholic, but in his case too, gradually © Ralph McInerny, 2005. and painfully, he gave it up. He became a Roman Catholic in 1903 and was ordained a priest a year later, in Rome. Any appreciation of Benson as a writer must take into account his devotional and apologetic works, but it can be said that the single motive of all his writing was to put the Roman Catholic faith compellingly before his reader.
