  • Anointing the King Hallowing Hope for the World in the English Coronation
    ANOINTING THE KING HALLOWING HOPE FOR THE WORLD IN THE ENGLISH CORONATION A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Liberal Studies By Susan E. Bond, M.A.T.S. Georgetown University Washington, D.C. November 27, 2018 ANOINTING THE KING HALLOWING HOPE FOR THE WORLD IN THE ENGLISH CORONATION Susan E. Bond, M.A.T.S. D.L.S. Chair: Gregory C. Havrilak, Ph.D. ABSTRACT By means of her anointing, in an order of service that dates to the anointing and crowning of King Edgar at Bath in 973 as the first King of All England, Elizabeth II carries into the present age a profound theology of kingship first articulated in the early 1100s by the Norman Anonymous and more fully by John Wycliffe in the fourteenth century, in which the sovereign is the living embodiment of Christ the king: Rex imago Christi. Great Britain is the last Christian monarchy to anoint its sovereign. The thesis is that the ideal of Christological kingship continues to obtain today although in a radically different historical and political context than that of its beginnings. History and liturgical theology are the methods of approach. As a history, the paper looks to the historical context of anointing, which leads to an examination of anointing the king in the modern context. As liturgical theology, the paper examines the meaning of imago Christi as it pertains to the anointing and hallowing of the image of the human person (imago hominis) in the eternal image of Christ the king.

  • The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 2 Editorial
    Nineteenth Ce ntury The Magazine of the Victorian Society in America Volume 40 Number 2 Editorial Something to be Grateful for As many of us are spending more time cooking on account of the pandemic, we thought it would be a good opportunity to reflect back on dining and cooking in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. As Leela Outcalt writes in our lead feature, “During the nineteenth century, the home became the locus of middle-class respectability and hosting, and attending dinner parties offered prime opportunities to display one’s social status.” In the case of her article, that display was often happening in the American ex-patriot community in London. Two of our other contributors offer in-depth detail about hosting in the new American city of Chicago. These, along with our fourth feature, are an outgrowth from a November 2019 symposium held at Glessner House, in that city. It was sponsored jointly by Glessner House and the Victorian Society in America and the topic was servants, kitchens, and dining in the Victorian Era. While some may not be as enthusiastic as others about having to spend a great deal more time preparing meals at home, at least none of us are likely to be putting in the eighteen hours days of one Mattie Williamson, described in this issue by Justin Miller.
