  • A Thing As the Inactivity of Christ, and Therefore He, Who Is the Same
    472 Sam·ijicc : a Study in Oornparctti·ve Religion. a thing as the inactivity of Christ, and therefore He, who is the same yesterday, to-day, and for ever, was active among His creation when as yet they were but children in under­ standing. Who shall say when revealed religion began ? It has been there from all time, for how can the presence of God in the universe be ineffective ? ToW; fl'ev ovv xp(wov-: Tij~ a"fVO[ar; lJ7Teptaeov 0 8eor;. [It will have been noticed by those who are conversant with the subject that in dealing with the essential elements of sacrifice the writer has not taken into consideration the theory recently put forth by the late lamented Professor S. I. Curtiss. Professor Curtiss maintains that the essential element in sacrifice is the "bursting forth " of blood. He bases his theory on certain observations made during three journeys in Syria and. the Sinaitic Peninsula. The writer hopes, in a subsequent article, to deal somewhat in detail with the two theories championed respectively by Professor W. Robertson Smith and Professor Curtiss. It must suffice at present to say that there is rea.son for regarding both theories as correct ; they do not exclude one another; the facts support both, and it may well turn out that each theory witnesses. to the truth, and that they are complementary. It should be mentioned that Professor Curtiss' theory does not affect the general argument of the above article; this will be clear when we deal with it more fully.] W. 0.

  • Widows and Property in Late Medieval London
    ‘IN MY PURE WIDOWHOOD’: WIDOWS AND PROPERTY IN LATE MEDIEVAL LONDON DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Valerie Emanoil, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2008 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Barbara Hanawalt, Adviser Professor Joseph Lynch ________________________________ Professor Daniel Hobbins Adviser History Graduate Program 0 1 ABSTRACT Women in late medieval London received significant portions of their husbands’ estate as dower – anywhere from one-third to one-half. Laws may have limited the widows’ ownership to their lifetimes, but the widows were free to collect any financial interests the property accrued during their possession. I have followed a specific group of London women, citizens’ widows, to determine how they used their dowered property. In the Court of Husting, men enrolled wills that tracked the devolution of their estates. Using a sample of 1, 868 wills, I have found that the men conformed to borough customs, bequeathing their wives significant property holdings. These dowers consisted of both commercial and residential properties, land meant to sustain women throughout their widowhood and even into their next marriages. As single women, widows also enjoyed the privilege of enrolling their wills in the Court of Husting. In a sample of 276 widows’ wills, my analysis has shown that the majority of widows did not attempt to gain free title of their dowered lands. On their own deaths, the widows instead bequeathed property that they had inherited or purchased, either separately or with their husbands. How then, did the widows utilize these property holdings during their lives? The Court of Husting can again provide an answer.

  • John De Stratford and the Becket Chantry Chapel
    John de Stratford and the Becket Chantry Chapel Holy Trinity’s medieval Becket Chantry Chapel was built in 1331 by John de Stratford for the offering of prayers in perpetuity for himself, the souls of his parents, brother, deceased English kings and Bishops of Worcester and Winchester and all the departed faithful. Until Shakespeare achieved fame, de Stratford was without question the town’s most celebrated son. He served the ill-fated Edward II, and rose from Rector of Holy Trinity to become Archbishop of Canterbury in 1333, during the reign of Edward III. Like Thomas Becket, he challenged royal authority, but unlike Becket, he survived, concentrating his Marble effigy of John de Stratford on his tomb in Canterbury Cathedral final years on spiritual duties as Archbishop, until his death in 1348. He is buried at Canterbury Cathedral, close to the site of Becket’s shrine. Chancel window, Guild Chapel, Stratford-upon-Avon The Holy Trinity Chapel attracted so many pilgrims from Stratford and further afield, that John’s kinsman Ralph de Stratford founded the ecclesiastical college in 1353, to provide accommodation for the increased number of priests required to serve the chapel. John and Ralph de Stratford kneeling before the altar of the Becket chantry chapel. Window in Holy Trinity Church Eventually the College became so powerful and wealthy that it took control of the whole church, collecting the tithe money and appointing its priests. It thrived until the 1538 edict of Henry VIII de-canonised Becket, followed in 1547 by Edward VI’s Chantries Act, which abolished all chantries and colleges.
