JOHN BAMPTON, CANON OF SALISBURY. “I give and bequeath my Lands and Estates to the Chancellor, Masters, and Scholars of the University of Oxford for ever, to have and to hold all and singular the said Lands or Estates upon trust, and to the intents and purposes hereinafter mentioned; that is to say, I will and appoint that the Vice-Chancellor of the University of Oxford for the time being shall take and receive all the rents, issues, and profits thereof, and (after all taxes, reparations, and necessary deductions made) that he pay all the remainder to the endowment of eight Divinity Lecture Sermons, to be established for ever in the said University, and to be per- formed in the manner following: “I direct and appoint, that, upon the first Tuesday in Easter Term, a Lecturer be yearly chosen by the Heads of Colleges only, and by no others, in the room adjoining to the Printing-House, between the hours of ten in the morning and two in the afternoon, to preach eight Divinity Lecture Sermons, the year following, at St. Mary’s in Oxford, between the commencement of the last month in Lent Term, and the end of the third week in Act Term. “Also I direct and appoint, that the eight Divinity Lecture Sermons shall be preached upon either of the following Subjects—to confirm and establish the Christian Faith, and to confute VI all heretics and schismatics—upon the divine authority of the holy Scriptures—upon the authority of the writings of the primitive Fathers, as to the faith and practice of the primitive Church—upon the Divinity of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ—upon the Divinity of the Holy Ghost—upon the Articles of the Christian Faith, as comprehended in the Apostles’ and Nicene Creeds. “Also I direct, that thirty copies of the eight Divinity Lecture Sermons shall be always printed, within two months after they are preached, and one copy shall be given to the Chancellor of the University, and one copy to the Head of every College, and one copy to the Mayor of the city of Oxford, and one copy to be put into the Bodleian Library; and the expense of printing them shall be paid out of the revenue of the Land or Estates given for establishing the Divinity Lecture Sermons; and the Preacher shall not be paid, nor be entitled to the revenue, before they are printed. 4 Extract from The Last Will and Testament of the Rev. John Bampton, Canon¼ “Also I direct and appoint, that no person shall be qualified to preach the Divinity Lecture Sermons, unless he hath taken the degree of Master of Arts at least, in one of the two Uni- versities of Oxford or Cambridge; and that the same person shall never preach the Divinity Lecture Sermons twice.” VII 5 Publisher's Advertisement to the American Edition. Publisher’s Advertisement to the American Edition. PUBLISHERS’ ADVERTISEMENT TO THE AMERICAN EDITION. The work, here offered to the American public, has been received with the most marked attention in England, and has already reached a third edition, though but few months have elapsed since the issue of the first. It is believed that its great merits will command for it a like attention wherever it is known; the rare learning and metaphysical ability with which it discusses problems, no less profound in their philosophical nature than practical in their religious applications; the devout reverence for the authority of the Bible, and the truly Christian spirit with which it is imbued, must gain for it a cherished place in the minds and hearts of all who wish well to a sound philosophy, and a pure, and we may add, a real, Christianity. In its more immediate aspect, it is eminently a work for the present times; so closely is it connected with the higher thinking of the present generation, and so boldly and triumphantly does it carry the Christian argument through the entire course of recent, and especially German, speculation. But rightly viewed, these Lectures of Mr. Mansel have a far wider scope than this; for, in unfolding his great theme, the author aims to lay the foundations of a sound religious philosophy in the laws of the human mind, and in the general conditions to which it is thereby necessarily subject in the attainment of all truth and knowledge; his work therefore belongs, in its principles and applications, to all periods of human inquiry, and is thus invested with a universal interest and a permanent value. But without enlarging upon the general merits of this work, the Publishers have only to mention the single change of any importance, which it has undergone in the present re- VIII print. This change is the translation in the author’s learned Notes—a most valuable portion of his work—of the numerous passages from foreign writers, Greek, Latin, French, and German, which in the English edition appear in the original languages. It has been thought best to translate these passages, in order to bring them within the reach of all general readers; and it is hoped that this proceeding will be regarded by scholars with indulgence at least, if not with entire approval. The translations have been made by Prof. John L. Lincoln, of Brown University, whose reputation as a scholar is deemed by the Publishers a sufficient guaranty for the execution of the work. It has been the translator’s endeavor to reproduce the original with as much fidelity as possible; and to make only such departures, even in the form of the thought, as the English idiom seemed to require. The difficulties belonging to the task of translating isolated passages from so many and so different writers, will doubtless be best understood by those who are most familiar with the languages in which they are written, and with the abstruse subjects which they discuss. An Index of the Authors, quoted in the work, has been also prepared for the American edition, which will be of great service to readers, and will indicate the wide and various range of Mr.

I have many people to thank for helping bring this nearly-decade long sojourn to a successful conclusion. To begin, I want to remember Dr. Emory Elliott. His first book, Power and the Pulpit in Puritan New England, was one I discovered when I was first applying to PhD programs, and it gave me hope that there would be a professor at UCR who could relate to my interest in studying the sermon. After taking a course from him, I approached Dr. Elliott about chairing my committee; a journal entry I wrote the following day reads, “Dr. Elliott on board and enthusiastic.” But, not long afterwards, I received word that he unexpectedly and suddenly passed away. I trust that this work would have met with the same degree of enthusiasm he displayed when I first proposed it to him. With Dr. Elliott’s passing, I had to find someone else who could guide me through the final stages of my doctorate, and Dr.

    Lesbian Justice: Erín Moure’s O Cidadán and Rachel Zolf’s Neighbour Procedure Judith Butler decisively unzips her leather jacket. The audience laughs, and Rachel Zolf grins and holds her blazer open. Reading Zolf’s poem “Jews in space (a lunacy),” the philosopher and the poet perform a discussion between “Two women, age fifty to sixty-five, partially clad, in the locker room of the downtown ‘Hebrew Y.’”166 Affecting stereotypical Jewish accents and intonations, they exchange lines about a trip to Israel, and about Israelis buying land on the moon. Zolf explains the virtues of both spots: while Israel has “great spas and bomb shelters cum guestrooms,” the moon is “the only place we’re safe from anti-Semitism.” “Is it safe to go now?” Butler asks. “Yes,” Zolf tells her, “spas are much cheaper — Israelis own ten percent of the moon already.” “Then go!” Butler urges, with a glint in her eye, “I imagine it will bring up philosophical thoughts about manifest destiny.” Zolf informs Butler that she will travel with her (fictional) daughter and niece, and that she has pitched the story to the Globe, “so I can get it paid for.” Butler responds enthusiastically: That’s your angle! Write it from your perspective, your daughter’s perspective and your niece’s perspective floating and looking at our peaceful planet while eating kosher nosh and reciting Israel’s Declaration of Independence! This reading of the poem, which Zolf declares “the best yet,” obviously accentuates the poem’s ample potential for comedy. However, the humorous conversation in the locker room of the Hebrew Y is not merely comical; it does evoke “philosophical thoughts.” Its 166 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C50MjBN7a5A The video records Rachel Zolf’s reading in the Holloway Series in Poetry at UC Berkeley, 19 October 2010.

    The Fitness of Scripture: Richard Chenevix Trench and Victorian Doctrines of Scripture by Cole William Hartin A Doctoral Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wycliffe College and the Graduate Centre for Theological Studies of the Toronto School of Theology. In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theological Studies awarded by Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto. © Copyright by Cole William Hartin 2019 The Fitness of Scripture: Richard Chenevix Trench and Victorian Doctrines of Scripture Cole William Hartin Doctor of Philosophy in Theological Studies Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto 2019 Abstract This thesis outlines Archbishop Richard Chenevix Trench’s theology of Scripture, showing that he reads the Bible distinctively by situating him within the broader Victorian Church of England. Furthermore, it argues that because of the clarity with which Trench apprehends the character of Scripture and the interpretive implications of this, he offers a comprehensive paradigm from which one can articulate a coherent understanding of “the fitness of Holy Scripture for unfolding the spiritual life of men.” I examine Trench’s theology of Scripture by way of comparison with other prominent thinkers in the Church of England during his time. First, Charles Simeon’s devout but unidimensional interpretation, which aims to discover the full range of biblical teaching, is set beside Trench’s layered Christological reading of the text. The next chapter discusses Benjamin Jowett’s attempts to uncover the original meaning and context of each passage of Scripture. Trench’s doctrine of the Holy Spirit’s authorship juxtaposes with Jowett, opening room for a further future unfolding of the meaning inherent in Scripture.

    The Theology of Henry Mansel

    Scripture, Skepticism and the Character of God: The Theology of Henry Mansel By Dane Neufeld A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Wycliffe College and the Theology Department of the Toronto School of Theology. In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Theology awarded by Wycliffe College and the University of Toronto. © Copyright By Dane Neufeld 2015 Digital copy downloaded from http://anglicanhistory.org Scripture, Skepticism and the Character of God: The Theology of Henry Mansel. ThD, Wycliffe College, 2015. Dane Neufeld. Abstract Henry Mansel’s Bampton Lectures The Limits of Religious Thought have primarily been remembered both for their defense of orthodox Christianity and their unintended incorporation into the Agnostic philosophy of Herbert Spencer. But Mansel’s theology belongs more securely in the tradition of Anglican theology that combines a skepticism toward speculative theology and an intense devotion to the centrality of Scripture in the Church’s common life. Critics argued that Mansel’s skepticism and theory of regulative truth separated the reality of God from the language and narrative of Scripture. However, it can be argued that Mansel’s skepticism provides a context in which the entire canon of Scripture can speak truthfully and coherently about the character of God’s action in the world. Mansel’s theological skepticism provides a method for examining theological and philosophical frameworks that seek to encompass or improve the language of Scripture in order to ensure that the Scriptures themselves form the context through which the Church apprehends God and interprets reality. ii Table of Contents Introduction ................................................................................................................................ 1 Chapter One: Kant and Anglican Theology in the 19th Century ........................................

The work, however, made little progress until it was resumed by the present editor, Mrs. Angela Conyers, in 1968. Mrs. Conyers wishes to thank Professor Pugh for making a number of suggestions during the course of editing. For help and encouragement in other directions she is no less grateful to Dr.
