There were few villages and towns in Lancashire that were left untouched by the ‘iniury of the tymes’ when Catholicism was driven underground and her adherents were persecuted mercilessly, some condemned to death. At that time Lancaster was the seat of the assizes in North West England and in recent years the Church has recognised the heroic virtue of 14 priests and laymen from the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered on account of their faith on the outskirts of the city. The prayers within this book have been collected from devotional tracts and books of that time, all of which would have been considered contraband.

The period covered is the six centuries from the beginning of the fifth century to c.1100. The area covered is Anglo-Saxon England, with reference to the Celtic west. Occasionally reference is made to continental sites for archaeological evidence to verify points in the literary sources, when, by the accidents of (non) recovery, such evidence is unknown in the archaeological record here. The primary source material is of two kinds: literary and archaeological. Material in Anglo-Saxon manuscripts in the vernacular has been supplemented on occasion by that in Latin manuscripts. There was no pre-selection of manuscripts, and references to food come from all types of writings: legal, religious, literary and medical.

  • Toward a Renewed Theology and Practice of Confirmation
    Toward a Renewed Theology and Practice of Confirmation by Charles Pierson Shaw A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the University of St. Michael’s College and the Theology Department 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 C. Pierson Shaw, Jr. 2015 Toward a Renewed Theology and Practice of Confirmation C. Pierson Shaw, Jr Doctor of Philosophy in Theology Degree University of St. Michael’s College 2015 Abstract Confirmation has often been viewed as a rite in need of a theology. Whether it is understood as a sacrament within Roman Catholicism or a reaffirmation of Baptism in Protestant denominations, there is no clear command in the New Testament directing the Church to confirm its baptized members. A commonly held view is that Confirmation developed in the Western Church from a gradual separation of handlaying and chrismation from the baptismal washing. This dissertation, while reflecting the author’s Lutheran context and convictions, seeks to make an original contribution towards the renewal of the theology and practice of Confirmation. It begins by suggesting Biblical images from Scripture which, while not commanding that the Church confirm, may nevertheless inform the practice and the theology of the rite. Next, it undertakes a comprehensive examination of the history of the development of Confirmation in the West by reviewing the relevant historical, theological and liturgical sources in order to offer new insights on older commonly held assumptions. It then suggests new perspectives by both Catholics and Protestants concerning a broader Sacramental economy which, through ecumenical dialogue, the Church’s Western traditions might come to welcome and appreciate more fully the role of Confirmation in the Church’s life and ministry.
