A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD
A Brief History of Christ Church MEDIEVAL PERIOD Christ Church was founded in 1546, and there had been a college here since 1525, but prior to the Dissolution of the monasteries, the site was occupied by a priory dedicated to the memory of St Frideswide, the patron saint of both university and city. St Frideswide, a noble Saxon lady, founded a nunnery for herself as head and for twelve more noble virgin ladies sometime towards the end of the seventh century. She was, however, pursued by Algar, prince of Leicester, for her hand in marriage. She refused his frequent approaches which became more and more desperate. Frideswide and her ladies, forewarned miraculously of yet another attempt by Algar, fled up river to hide. She stayed away some years, settling at Binsey, where she performed healing miracles. On returning to Oxford, Frideswide found that Algar was as persistent as ever, laying siege to the town in order to capture his bride. Frideswide called down blindness on Algar who eventually repented of his ways, and left Frideswide to her devotions. Frideswide died in about 737, and was canonised in 1480. Long before this, though, pilgrims came to her shrine in the priory church which was now populated by Augustinian canons. Nothing remains of Frideswide’s nunnery, and little - just a few stones - of the Saxon church but the cathedral and the buildings around the cloister are the oldest on the site. Her story is pictured in cartoon form by Burne-Jones in one of the windows in the cathedral. One of the gifts made to the priory was the meadow between Christ Church and the Thames and Cherwell rivers; Lady Montacute gave the land to maintain her chantry which lay in the Lady Chapel close to St Frideswide’s shrine. -

Unification Church of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Unification_Church_of_th... Unification Church of the United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The Unification Church of the United States is a new religious movement in the United States of America. It began in the 1950s and 1960s when missionaries from Japan and South Korea were sent to the United States by the international Unification Church's founder and leader Sun Myung Moon. It expanded in the 1970s and then became involved in controversy due to its theology, its political activism, and the life style of its members. Since then it has been involved in many areas of American society and has itself gone through substantial changes. Contents 1 Early history 2 Political involvement The New Yorker Hotel, 3 Criticism, opposition, and controversy purchased by the Unification 3.1 "Moonie" Church of the United States 4 Changes in the 1980s, 1990s, and 2000s in 1976 and now the site of 5 Church presidents national church headquarters 6 Military service offices. 7 Neologisms 8 References 9 External links Early history In the late 1950s and early 1960s Unification Church missionaries were sent from South Korea and Japan to the United States in order to establish the church there. Among them were Young Oon Kim, Sang Ik-Choi, Bo Hi Pak, David S. C. Kim, and Yun Soo Lim. Missionary work took place in Washington D.C., New York, Oregon, and California.[1] The church first came to public notice in the United States after sociology student John Lofland studied Young Oon Kim's group and published his findings as a doctoral thesis entitled: The World Savers: A Field Study of Cult Processes , which was published in 1966 in book form by Prentice-Hall as Doomsday Cult: A Study of Conversion, Proselytization, and Maintenance of Faith. -
GOLD TRIED 550 TIMES in the FIRE Timothy Alborn
GOLD TRIED 550 TIMES IN THE FIRE Timothy Alborn Historians inevitably face the challenge of selecting a subset of primary sources to stand for a much larger body of research. This challenge is magnified in the case of the history of ideas, where the need to provide closer readings tends to diminish that already small sample size. My article, “The Greatest Metaphor Ever Mixed,” distilled hundreds of sources from numerous genres down to a few dozen. A section on the various uses of the metaphor of gold tried in the fire, for instance, quotes twenty-eight sources that employ that metaphor, or roughly five percent of the sources I consulted. To find all these sources, I pursued two parallel tracks. The first was part of a larger project on the cultural and economic history of gold in Britain from 1780 to 1850, which will soon be published by Oxford University Press. For this project, I spent the last eight years looking for references to gold wherever they showed up: in treatises, novels, sermons, speeches, and newspaper articles, among many other sources. The bulk of my research utilized such online databases as Eighteenth Century Collections Online, Making of the Modern World, and Google Books. After realizing, a few years into this research, that gold appeared frequently and with interesting variations in numerous religious contexts, I did more targeted search in these databases (see my full list of search terms below for “gold tried in the fire”). In a blog post accompanying a different article I published two years ago in the Journal of Victorian Culture, I made a first foray into providing access to the larger cultural world that historians must curtail in order to “see the forest for the trees.” (link). -
The Unificationist Funerary Tradition
religions Article The Unificationist Funerary Tradition Lukas Pokorny Department of Religious Studies, University of Vienna, 1010 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] Received: 22 April 2020; Accepted: 17 May 2020; Published: 20 May 2020 Abstract: This paper explores the distinctive funerary tradition of the Unification Movement, a globally active South Korean new religious movement founded in 1954. Its funerary tradition centres on the so-called Seonghwa (formerly Seunghwa) Ceremony, which was introduced in January 1984. The paper traces the doctrinal context and the origin narrative before delineating the ceremony itself in its Korean expression, including its preparatory and follow-up stages, as well as its short-lived adaptation for non-members. Notably, with more and more first-generation adherents passing away—most visibly in respect to the leadership culminating in the Seonghwa Ceremony of the founder himself in 2012—the funerary tradition has become an increasingly conspicuous property of the Unificationist lifeworld. This paper adds to a largely uncharted area in the study of East Asian new religious movements, namely the examination of their distinctive deathscapes, as spelled out in theory and practice. Keywords: Unification Church; funeral; death; ritual; new religious movement; Korea; East Asia 1. Introduction “‘Death’ is a sacred word. It is not a major expression for sorrow and pain. [ ::: ] The moment one enters the spiritual world is a time that one enters a world of joy and victory with the earthly life having blossomed, the fruits borne, and the grain ladled. It is a moment we [i.e., those staying behind] should rejoice. It should be a time when we celebrate wholeheartedly. -

Henry Chadwick 1920–2008
HENRY CHADWICK Reproduced by permission of The Times Henry Chadwick 1920–2008 I THE ACCUMULATED DISTINCTION of the Chadwick family is something of a byword. Henry Chadwick was the son of a notably brilliant and success- ful barrister (a former Wrangler in the Cambridge Tripos) who wrote a landmark book on property law; the brother of one senior economist and diplomat and one prolifi c, universally respected and loved academic histor- ian; and, not least, the father of a charismatic headmistress and educa- tionalist. But this was not a typical Oxbridge academic dynasty: the family’s roots lay in Lancashire, and Henry’s grandfather was a mining engineer, whose untimely death in a pit accident meant that John Chadwick senior was brought up by his mother (who came from a farming family at Westleigh) and, after an education at Rossall School, proceeded to Pembroke, Cambridge, studying fi rst Mathematics and then Law, moving to the Inner Temple. He married Edith Horrocks, from another solidly Lancashire line (her father had been Mayor of Leigh), a fi ne pianist and a woman of culture and education, and six children, four boys and two girls, were born to them. They made their home in Bromley, Kent, where their fourth child, Henry, was born on 23 June 1920. John Chadwick survived service in the RNVR during the First World War only to die of meningitis at the age of 51, when Henry was ten. Henry thus came to share his father’s experience of being brought up by a widowed mother, and it is not fanciful to see his extraordinary musical talent as a mark of his mother’s encouragement and inspiration. -

WOOD•MASS•ll'•S•A Jn £!1!}emotiam EVEREI I SELDEN GEER 23 FEBRUARY 1850-24 OCTOBER :i:917 FOREWORD N PRESENTING a revised and enlarged edition of the Geer Genealogy, it may be of interest to place on I record some facts in relation to the two works already published, and also tell the story of one which never appeared. In 1856, James Geer, of Ledyard, Connecticut, pub lished a little book of eighty-four pages, entitled His torical Sketch and Genealogy of George and Thomas Geer from r62r to r856. James Geer was then seventy-two years of age. He was a descendant in the fifth generation of George Geer, through his fourth son, Robert. His family had always lived on the homestead of George Geer, which is also still the home of his own descendants. As much of the material contained in the First Part of this volume is taken ~rom the Genealogy published by James Geer, we quote here a part of his Introduction in which he states the origin of his work: " Living as the writer does upon the homestead of George Geer, and having in his possession many of th~ original papers belonging to him and his children, it very naturally prompted frequent inquiries respecting the pa:.'t history of the Geer Family on the part of those de scendants who visited the spot once trodden by our honored and revered sire. -
'To Restore This Nation': the Unification Movement in Austria
161 ‘To Restore This Nation’: The Unification Movement in Austria. Background and Early Years, 1965–1966 Lukas Pokorny and Simon Steinbeiss 1. Introduction The Unification Movement (UM, t’ongil undong) is a global religious organisation, spanning five continents and being vigorously engaged in various peace promotion and social welfare initiatives. Its millenarian agenda rests on a sophisticated doctrinal foundation that entails the establishment of God’s Kingdom on Earth, that is, world peace through the creation of ideal families centred on God. Rising to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s, the UM has been widely stigmatised, often labelled pejoratively as a ‘destructive cult’ and connected to sinister brainwashing techniques and the like.1 The severity of the polemics against the UM has corresponded to the success of its proselytising and publicity. Proselytising is crucial for Unificationists as a way of bringing about harmony into a world of dissonance and conflict. Unification thought, as promulgated by Acknowledgments: The authors are grateful for the valuable support received from the members of the Unification Movement in Austria and Germany, and the Department for Questions about World Views of the Catholic Archdiocese of Vienna (Referat für Weltanschauungsfragen der Erzdiözese Wien). For reasons of confidentiality, the authors cannot name all those who have provided kind assistance during their research. The authors express their gratitude to (in alphabetical order): Elisabeth Cook, Karl Ebinger, Peter Haider, Hans-Jürgen Hutzfeld, Heinrich Krcek, Romana Kunkel, Stefan Lorger- Rauwolf, Ulrike Schütz, Winfried Schwarzl, Johannes Sinabell, Ingeborg Sorgenicht, Christel Werner, and Peter Zöhrer. The authors would also like to thank the Austrian UM for their permission to reproduce documents and personal photographs found in various archives. -
