Nicholas Dixon November 2018 ii Thesis Summary The Activity and Influence of the Established Church in England, c. 1800-1837 Nicholas Andrew Dixon Pembroke College, Cambridge This thesis examines the various ways in which the Church of England engaged with English politics and society from c. 1800 to 1837. Assessments of the early nineteenth-century Church of England remain coloured by a critique originating in radical anti-clerical polemics of the period and reinforced by the writings of the Tractarians and Élie Halévy. It is often assumed that, in consequence of social and political change, the influence of a complacent and reactionary church was irreparably eroded by 1830.

  • Former Fellows Biographical Index Part
    Former Fellows of The Royal Society of Edinburgh 1783 – 2002 Biographical Index Part One ISBN 0 902 198 84 X Published July 2006 © The Royal Society of Edinburgh 22-26 George Street, Edinburgh, EH2 2PQ BIOGRAPHICAL INDEX OF FORMER FELLOWS OF THE ROYAL SOCIETY OF EDINBURGH 1783 – 2002 PART I A-J C D Waterston and A Macmillan Shearer This is a print-out of the biographical index of over 4000 former Fellows of the Royal Society of Edinburgh as held on the Society’s computer system in October 2005. It lists former Fellows from the foundation of the Society in 1783 to October 2002. Most are deceased Fellows up to and including the list given in the RSE Directory 2003 (Session 2002-3) but some former Fellows who left the Society by resignation or were removed from the roll are still living. HISTORY OF THE PROJECT Information on the Fellowship has been kept by the Society in many ways – unpublished sources include Council and Committee Minutes, Card Indices, and correspondence; published sources such as Transactions, Proceedings, Year Books, Billets, Candidates Lists, etc. All have been examined by the compilers, who have found the Minutes, particularly Committee Minutes, to be of variable quality, and it is to be regretted that the Society’s holdings of published billets and candidates lists are incomplete. The late Professor Neil Campbell prepared from these sources a loose-leaf list of some 1500 Ordinary Fellows elected during the Society’s first hundred years. He listed name and forenames, title where applicable and national honours, profession or discipline, position held, some information on membership of the other societies, dates of birth, election to the Society and death or resignation from the Society and reference to a printed biography.

  • Queen Anne's Bounty and the Augmentation of Leicestershire Livings in the Age of Reform by Simon Barratt
    Queen Anne's Bounty and the Augmentation of Leicestershire Livings in the Age of Reform by Simon Barratt In 1827 Francis Merewether, writing on the duties of the nobility and gentry towards the church, stated that Queen Anne's Bounty had 'done more for Religion and the Church in this kingdom, within the last twenty years, than any that can be named'; 1 the purpose of this paper is to estimate the overall effect of Queen Anne's Bounty in the augmentation of Leicestershire's poor livings. Augmentation progress is examined against the background of contemporary dissatisfaction with the Established Church and the role of the Bounty, both with respect to this criticism and to its effectiveness as an agency of reform and improvement. Recent historians have generally favoured an optimistic account of the Bounty's early progress, Dr Green attributes what he calls the 'the success of the scheme' to the fact that 2 the Governors 'struck just the right note' , indeed, its very success fuelled Whig alarm, hastening the Mortmain Act of 1736. 3 Historians have quite naturally concentrated on the administrative procedures of the Bounty, paying little attention to the local context; the broad conclusions which emerge from an analysis of the Bounty's own statistics tending to be rather more optimistic than the regional evidence will sometimes allow. In South Wales argues John Guy, augmentations gave independence to a needless number of inadequately endowed perpetual curacies. 4 In the West Riding of Yorkshire, however, where large parishes with poor dependant chapelries abounded augmentations were successfully promoted under the auspicies of a general act of enclosure, much to the delight of Arthur Young.

  • The Church of All Saints, Clayton West 1875 - 1975
    THE CHURCH OF ALL SAINTS, CLAYTON WEST 1875 - 1975. On Thursday, 1st. April. 1875, Dr. Bickersteth, Bishop of Ripon consecrated the new church of All Saints to serve the prosperous and expanding village of Clayton West in the parish of High Hoyland. This year we celebrate the centenary of this event and it cannot be allowed to pass without recording the reason for the building of this Church, the part it has played in the life of the parish, together with an account of the part it has to play in the next century. No one knows when the Christian gospel first came to this parish, but archeological evidence points to a preaching station being established at High Hoyland by 800 A.D. The early mission priest, if the account of the Venerable Bede is correct, came from the Columban monastery situated in the wood between Dewsbury and Leeds. Before the Norman Conquest, High Hoyland, in common with Kirkburton and Emley, were in the parish of Dewsbury, in which parish it remained until the twelfth century. Whether there was a church building in these early days is unknown and, contrary to many popular reports, there is no reference to a church in the Doomsday Book, but that does not mean such a building was non existent. It was no part of the Domesday commissioner’s duties to record churches unless such a building was directly concerned with landowning. The first concrete evidence comes from the early years of the reign of Henry II. The period from 1150 to 1170 was one in which a large number of churches were erected in this area.

PREFACE The Blackwall frigates form a connecting link between the lordly East Indiaman of the Honourable John Company and the magnificent P. & O. and Orient liners of the present day. They were first-class ships—well-run, happy ships, and the sailor who started his sea life as a midshipman aboard a Blackwaller looked back ever afterwards to his cadet days as the happiest period of his career. If discipline was strict, it was also just. The train- ing was superb, as witness the number of Blackwall midshipmen who reached the head of their profession and distinguished themselves later in other walks of life. Indeed, as a nursery for British seamen, we shall never see the like of these gallant little frigates. The East still calls, yet its glamour was twice as alluring, its vista twice as romantic, in the days of sail; and happy indeed was the boy who first saw the shores of India from the deck of one of Green's or Smith's passenger ships. Fifty years ago, the lithographs of the celebrated Blackwall liners to India and Australia could be bought at any seaport for a few shillings.

    WELLES AND ALLIED FAMILIES GENEALOGICAL AND BIOGRAPWICAL Prepared and Privately Printed for CATHEI\INE J. WELLES and FRANCES S. WELLES BY THE AMERICAN HISTORICAL SOCIETY, Inc. NEW TOllK 1927 WeHes Arms-Or, a lion rampant double queued sable:­ Crest-A demi-lion rampant double queued sable. Motto-Semper paratus. (Always ready.) HE Well es family has been traced back to the Vaux family which derived its name from a district in Nor- 1nandy. The name comes from Norman-French val) or vale) and its plurals, vals or vaux) from the Latin vallis. The orthography passed through many changes: Wallys (1220), Wellys (1475), \Vyllys (1463), De ~c::----..;;::~-=s Well (1401-89), De Welles, \Velles (1293), and Wells. The Vaux family is of record in Provence as early as 794, and is recognized as one of the most illustrious in history, having from that period held the highest rank in its own right and by royal intermarriages. Hai:-old de Vaux, a near connection of William the Conqueror, founded the family in England about 1120. He was accompanied by his three sons, Barons Hubert, Ran­ ulph, and Robert, all surnamed de Vallibus. Robert de Well es, born about 1145, was the great-grandson of Robert de Vallibus. He held the manor of Little Rayne, in Essex, England, and was the founder of the Welles family in that county. There were numerous branches of the family founded in England and, wealthy and powerful in their own right, their marriages were with the leading :families of the realm, among these that of Dymoke, in which is held the title of Hereditary Cham­ pion of the King of England.

INTRODUCTION. Many people think a genealogist is "queer," or in a temporarily queer condition when he is ancestry hunting. One says, "Skip " " Dried dates don't interest but I like the genealogy ; another, me, dates of the Phoenix dactylifera (date palm)"; another, "Better not go back too far, —you may find a persona -non grata." But these little jocosities produce no permanent effect on the genea- logist who is hunting like "Japhet in search of a father." "Looking backward" a little way, say as far as the Pilgrims, is on the whole rather interesting.

  • The Anglican Mind in Caroline and Tractarian Thought Arthur Middleton
    The Anglican Mind in Caroline and Tractarian Thought Arthur Middleton Ressourcement Theology Let me begin in the mid-twentieth century in France with some French theologians, that included Henri de Lubac, Jean Danélou, Henri Bouillard, Yves Congar, Louis Bouyer and Marie-Dominique Chenu, and the Swiss, von Balthasar. They initiated a remarkable theological movement termed ressourcement theology. It was not a unified school of thought but these theologians shared a common belief that the writings of the early church constitute an incomparable source for the contemporary renewal of the Church. Here were sources for a deeper understanding of the gospel in our world and for the renewal of liturgy and the sustaining of our spiritual life. In a post-Christian Europe, these ressourcement theologians turned to the work of great patristic and medieval theologians such as Origen, Ignatius of Antioch, Cyprian, Chrysostom, Cyril of Alexandria, Augustine, John of Damascus, and Thomas Aquinas. Here they recovered crucial sources for the revitalization of contemporary theology and pastoral life. This movement emphasized the central role of the biblical text in theological argument. This emphasis on a return to the sources offered a vision of Catholic theology that differed subtly but radically from what was almost universally available in the textbooks of the time. It was a theology that was deliberately crafted to break out of the clerical, apologetic, largely anti- Protestant and anti-modern forms of thinking that had bound it for a century and more. Their aim was to find in the textual roots of the Christian tradition inspiration for a theology more open to ecumenical dialogue, more engaged with the social needs of the modern world and more nourishing for the spiritual hunger of lay people.
