KENT Around whose "radiant fireplace" "We sped the time with stories old" PREFACE HE Maltby or Maulsby history is the result of long years of research. At first in carefully picked steps T generation after generation backward, and then by leaps and bounds to that grand old record, the Domesday Book. Owing to our Quaker ancestry and the careful preserva­ tion of the Quaker records, this for 230 years was a compar­ atively easy matter, and William Maltby, the convert to Quakerism, was soon located in Nottinghamshire, England, in the little village of Orston, where some of the family still live, and from which C. W. Maltby writes: "My father, Thomas Maltby, died March 8, 1881, aged 101 years and 101 days." Before 1676 we have not attempted a connected history, although it could doubtless be traced much further by the aid of the long list of Maltby wills, going back many years be­ fore the sailing of Columbus, and by other records that carry us back to the Domesday Book, with which "Malteby" our history will begin. We look backward with pride, and justly, to the early Quaker settlement of Pennsylvania, but are apt to forget or scarcely realize the great changes that have taken place dur­ ing these years. That our Quaker ancestors suffered many privations and dwelt in rude abodes, that school houses were of later origin, and that education was within the reach of very few, comparatively speaking, is hard to realize. They truly lived "The Simple Life." Our history takes us back to still ruder conditions in England. Even into the history of the 'old ''Manor house,'' whose name seems to carry a certain glamor of distinction with it, it is not wise to examine too closely, or the wooden (i) THE MAULSBY FAMILY structure of one or two rooms, with dirt floor and thatched roof with opening for the escape of smoke, would dispel many of the illusions to which we cling. Our modern society is all too prone to judge a man by his possessions, and his ability to gain more, and so value him, overlooking the things of greater worth.

Un ringraziamento speciale va a Danilo Zardin (per il paziente lavoro di lettura in qualità di coordinatore del Dottorato), a Dermot Fenlon (per i numerosi e preziosissimi consigli), a Evandro Botto e a Cesare Mozzarelli (compianto amico e maestro) che di questa tesi sono stati ispiratori. 2 INTRODUZIONE Il lavoro che presentiamo su John Henry Newman riguarda una delle personalità forse maggiormente poliedriche della storia intellettuale dell’Europa, in quanto egli, oltre a essere stato (a un tempo) teologo e filosofo, predicatore ed educatore, sacerdote e apologeta, romanziere e poeta, fu anche (come è noto) un grande anglicano e un grande cattolico, nel senso che passò la prima metà della vita nella Chiesa anglicana e la seconda metà in quella cattolica, dimostrando di averle a cuore entrambe. Consapevoli quindi del fatto che chiunque volesse accostarsi a Newman (a meno di scrivere una biografia) non poteva non delimitare il campo di indagine a un aspetto della sua figura e della sua riflessione, abbiamo scelto di iniziare la ricerca dalla tematica politica, ad oggi non ancora particolarmente studiata.

    206 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING. FEBRUARY 5th, 1875. ROBERT ETHERIDGE, Esq., F.R.S., F.G.S., &c., Vice-President, in the Chair. The following Report was read by the Honorary Secretary :- REPORT OF THE GENERAL COMMITTEE FOR 1874. The General Committee have much pleasure in congratulating the Association upon the results of the past year. A considerable number of new Members have been added to the list, and several of these are already well known throughout the country, by their study and practice of Geological Science. There have been a few losses by death, and, if the number of those who have retired is somewhat more numerous than has been the case of later years, they consisted, with few exceptions, of Members whose interest in the proceedings of the Association was never very ardent. Members elected during 1874 49 Withdrawals 14, Deaths 4 . 18 Increase 31 The Census of the Association on the 1st January, 1875, gave the following results :- Honorary Members 12 Life Members. 42 Old Country Members 28 Other Members 257 339 The lamented death of Professor Phillips, reduces the number of Honorary Members to 12. A short notice of the sad occurrence, which deprived the Association of one amongst the most eminent 206 ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING. of its body, will be found in the forthcoming number of Vol. iv. of the" Proceedings." The financial position of the Association is very satisfactory, and the large number of Members now contributing has yielded a sum which amply provides for an increased expenditure, the benefits of which are shared by all.

' Note on Ovibos moschatus, Blainville.' By M. E. Lartet, For. Mem.G.S. Translated by the late H.Christy, Esq., F.R.S., F.G.S.— A hoof-phalange found by Mr. Christy and the author in the Gorge d'Enfer was stated to be identical in form and dimensions with the corresponding bone of the existing Ovibos moschatus, to which species M. Lartet therefore referred it. With it were found remains of Ursus speleeus, Felis spelaa, Wolf, Reindeer, and Aurochs, as well as worked flints differing from those found in any other of the Dor- dogne caves. The author remarked that the Gorge d'Enfer is the most southern locality at which remains of Ovibos moschatus have yet been found, and is 15° south of its most southern limit at the present day; but the Reindeer has been found by Mr. Christy and himself farther south still—on the northern slope of the Pyrenees. 2.

  • The Geology of the District Around St. David's, Pembrokeshire
    121 THE GEOLOGY OF THE DISTRICT AROUND ST. DAVID'S, PEMBROKESHIRE. By J. FREDERICK N. GREEN, B.A., F.G.S. [Read March 3rd, 191f.1 Advance copies of this Paper and of the Paper on Ramsey Island were printed and issued to Members in connection with the Easter Excursion of IgII. The two Papers are now reprinted with a few additions and alterations. INTRODUCTION. ---HE Council of the Geologists' Association have done me 1 the honour of appointing me Director of an excursion to St. David's.'*' My experience of the district is not extended, and during my stay there I have devoted myself wholly to the struc• tural problems, leaving on one side the zonal paheontology and surface geology. Most of what follows must therefore be looked upon as a compilation from the papers mentioned in the Biblio• graphy (p. 136). Further, the area has been very insufficiently worked, especially in respect of its remarkable glacial geology, so that in these notes there must be many imperfections, the elimination of which may, I hope, be advanced by our excursion. The structure of this region, properly named" Dewisland," has occasioned one of the most severe disputes in the history of British geology. This controversy attained grave proportions owing to its bearing on other areas and on the generalisations drawn therefrom. I should not have ventured to assume in these notes the correctness of the interpretation given by myself in 19°8, which substantially upheld the main contentions of the late Henry Hicks, who made this corner of Wales a classical district for the study of our oldest rocks, had I not been authorised by the kindness of Mr.

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.

To a number of these, references are given in the text. But I wish to acknowledge how much I owe to the very careful and original research provided by Professor Willis, in his "Architectural History of the Cathedral"; by Precentor Walcott, in his "Early Statutes" of Chichester; and Dean Stephen, in his "Diocesan History." The footnotes, which refer to the latter work, indicate the pages in the smaller edition. But the volume could never have been completed without the great help given to me on many occassions by Prebendary Bennett. His deep and intimate knowledge of the cathedral structure and its history was always at my disposal. It is to him, as well as to Dr. Codrington and Mr. Gordon P.G.
