  • Sailing in Company
    SAILING IN COMPANY People played a vital role in Newman's spiritual life. He loved them, appreciated them and needed them. He needed human ties and the circle of friends. When the bond with the University and the Church was torn asunder, he retired to Littlemore in company with some of his friends. One of the major reasons for the heartaches he experienced at the collapse of the Oxford Movement was that great loss of his closest friends and companions in the Anglican Church. Hence his valedictory sermon to Oxford, to the Church of England and to his Anglican friends, is soaked in pathetic passion and in the pathetic tenderness of his ^ fever-1 roubled' heart'. His longing to hold on to his old and valued friends, in spite of the theological differences, is clearly expressed even in the title of the sermon The Parting of Friends. The pensiveness of tone which pervades this sermon reveals the pain which the poet experiences at the loss of such human ties. In his solemn lament there resides an almost painful emotional tension. Such is the closing of the sermon: And, 0 my brethren, 0 kind and affectionate hearts, 0 loving friends,should you know anyone whose lot it has been, by writing or by word of mouth, in some degree to help you thus to act; if he has ever told you what he knew about yourself, or what you did not know; has read to you your wants or feelings, and comforted you by the very reading; has made you feel that there was a higher life thanthis daily one, and a brighter world than that you see; or encouraged you, or sobered you, or opened a way to the inquiring, or soothed the perplexed; if what he has 116 said or done has ever made you take interest in him, and feel well inclined towards him; remember such a one in time to come, though you hear him not, and pray for him, that in all things, he may know God's 2 will and at all times he may be ready to fulfil itr'' The style and sound of these words are slow, weary, faltering, sighing, rising only to fall again in weakness, doubt and blank despair.

  • ARCHITECTURE, POWER, and POVERTY Emergence of the Union
    ARCHITECTURE, POWER, AND POVERTY Emergence of the Union Workhouse Apparatus in the Early Nineteenth-Century England A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Gökhan Kodalak January 2015 2015, Gökhan Kodalak ABSTRACT This essay is about the interaction of architecture, power, and poverty. It is about the formative process of the union workhouse apparatus in the early nineteenth-century England, which is defined as a tripartite combination of institutional, architectural, and everyday mechanisms consisting of: legislators, official Poor Law discourse, and administrative networks; architects, workhouse buildings, and their reception in professional journals and popular media; and paupers, their everyday interactions, and ways of self-expression such as workhouse ward graffiti. A cross-scalar research is utilized throughout the essay to explore how the union workhouse apparatus came to be, how it disseminated in such a dramatic speed throughout the entire nation, how it shaped the treatment of pauperism as an experiment for the modern body-politic through the peculiar machinery of architecture, and how it functioned in local instances following the case study of Andover union workhouse. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Gökhan Kodalak is a PhD candidate in the program of History of Architecture and Urbanism at Cornell University. He received his bachelor’s degree in architectural design in 2007, and his master’s degree in architectural theory and history in 2011, both from Yıldız Technical University, Istanbul. He is a co-founding partner of ABOUTBLANK, an inter-disciplinary architecture office located in Istanbul, and has designed a number of award-winning architectural and urban design projects in national and international platforms.

MY MOTHE R P R E F A C E As on eZo f the Secretaries of the Methodist - Hymn book Committee , I have been asked to write a few words of introduction to the book Miss Champn ess has compiled . I do so with the greater pleasure because of the intention which has inspired the writing . Miss Champ ness has not attempted an exhaustive account - of the new Hymn Book . That may be ex pecte d shortly from another hand and in another form . This is a more modest , and certainly a more popular, service rendered to - the Church , the class room , and the Christian home . The writer has specially desired to help local preachers and members of Wesley ll Guilds . She wi really help also a much larger circle . To know who wrote the hymns we sing , and under What circumstances they were written , and for what purpose , cannot fail to assist devotion and enrich experience . VI PREFACE A local preacher or class - leader who is familiar s with the hymns he uses , who know their origin , and at least some of their associations , will make a selection more suggestive of hol y thought , and more appropriate to the needs of the moment , than if he knew only the d wor s on the actual page .

  • All Saints Church Boyne Hill Maidenhead Parish News
    ALL SAINTS CHURCH BOYNE HILL MAIDENHEAD PARISH NEWS www.allsaintsboynehill.org.uk Issue 26 9 September 2020 Dear Parishioners and Friends of All Saints, Boyne Hill, Last Saturday Rod Broad, as a member of the House of Laity, and myself as a member of the House of Clergy joined via zoom about 130 other members of the Oxford Diocesan Synod. In this newsletter I am attempting to share with you some of the content of Bishop Steven’s presidential address and the ‘Shed Talk’ that we were encouraged to listen to from the Bishop’s Chaplain, Fr Paul Cowan. I begin with some of Bishop Steven’s thoughts. Steven began by encouraging us to think about the words from scripture that will be the Diocesan ‘Dwelling in the Word’ this year. The text is from Philippians 1: 27- 2:13. As I listened to the text I was struck by the reading that I had done in preparing the recorded service on St Aidan, The Bishop of Lindisfarne, last week. Aidan was from the monastic community at Iona and travelled to Northumbria where he used Holy Island as a place of prayer that led to missional action. The Island, as anyone that knows it will be aware, is at some points an Island for prayer and retreat from the mainland and then when the tide goes out becomes a place to reach out to the mainland for missional activity. Verse three of the text says ‘Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves.

  • Backgrounds to Some Popular Carols, Their Authors and Composers
    Backgrounds to some popular carols, their authors and composers “Angels from the realms of glory” by James Montgomery (1771 – 1854) This carol often causes embarrassment for the unwary, because the ‘come’ in the chorus takes a lot of breath and the chorus is often printed as, ‘Come and worship, / Worship Christ, the new-born King’, whereas when it is sung the first time, we only sing, ‘Come and worship, / Christ, the new-born King’, so someone, usually me, insists on trying to fit in ‘Worship’ – and fails. Having said that, the hymn is a favourite of mine and it was written by a remarkable man, James Montgomery, whose statue still stands in Sheffield, where he spent most of his life as a radical newspaper editor and proprietor. James’ parents were missionaries who moved from Scotland to the West Indies where they died of Yellow Fever. James was sent to a strict Moravian boarding school near Leeds, where he failed to shine academically and so found himself apprenticed in a bakery, but hated it so much that he ran away and eventually became a clerk at a radical newspaper, known as “The Sheffield Register”. The owner, Joseph Gales was a plain-speaking liberal and was forced to flee the country when his opinions led to his persecution. James admired Mr. Gales, so he first took over as editor, then became the owner, changing the paper’s name to “The Sheffield Iris” He was no respecter of authority and was twice imprisoned, once for celebrating the fall of the Bastille and, later, for condemning the brutality of the militia when it dealt with a riot in Sheffield.

His father wa3 a banker; his mother was Jemima Froudrinier, descended from a well-known Huguenot family. He attended Ealing, a school for boys, and there came under the influence of Calvinism. At sixteen, he entered Trinity College, Oxford, and later was elected to a Fellowship of Oriel, the highest honor his University could bestow upon him. He was a brilli­ ant ‘student, but quiet and shy, making few friends. He took Orders in the Church of England, in 1824; he became curate at St. Clement’s; and four years later, Vicar of St. Mary's, the college church. Here it was that his sermons attracted large congregations. Religion w,as the most vital thing in his life. He "wanted to bring out in a substantive form a living Church of England, in a position proper to herself, and founded on distinct principles."1 By his preaching and writings, he influenced others to take up this cause, which terminated in the Oxford Movement.
