  • The Lowell Lectures on the Ascent of Man
    The Lowell Lectures on the Ascent of Man Author(s): Drummond, Henry Publisher: Grand Rapids, MI: Christian Classics Ethereal Library Description: As well as an evangelist and missionary, Henry Drummond was a naturalist. After Darwin published his monumental On the Origin of Species, controversy exploded across Christendom, and Drummond was one of the first to address it effectively. Fiercely dedicated to both Christian faith and scientific progress, he sought to reconcile Darwin's theory of evolution with the teachings of the Bible. In 1893, Drum- mond delivered a series of lectures on perhaps the most controversial suggestion of Darwin's theoryÐthat humans shared a common ancestor with apes. Today, Drummond's words remain just as controversial as they were a century ago, and human evolution remains hotly debated throughout the church.

Indeed, they have become so prevalent of late years, as to approach very nearly to the nature of a trade wind. They forced us to lie to twelve, out of the forty-four days we spent on our passage.

  • A Study of Winifred Knights, 1915-1933
    A Study of Winifred Knights, 1915-1933 Rosanna Eckersley Department of Art History and World Art Studies University of East Anglia A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2015 © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any formation derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract Winifred Knights, 1899-1947, was a student at the Slade School of Art from 1915, where she developed a decorative manner of rhythmic, repetitive forms, one form of cautious modernism. In 1920 she was the first woman to win the Rome Prize in Decorative Painting. The award was for three years at the British School at Rome. Knights often chose to base her paintings on biblical subjects, or the lives of saints.
