The Window Volume 21, Issue 7 July 2015 The Episcopal Church of the Nativity The Window Volume 21, Issue 7 July 2015 From the Rector: Three weeks of intense classes, two weddings, a funeral, a bap- tism. Three thousand more miles on the RAV4 from four round trips to Sewanee, old friendships renewed, new ones forged, and as I write this I am on a plane out of Atlanta bound for Salt Lake City and the Triennial General Convention of the Episcopal Church. June has been a month of transition and travel, of new begin- nings, of resurrection. But to be perfectly candid with you, I am dreading the prospect of 10 days worth of legislative sessions, committee meetings, reports, receptions and resolutions which lack the teeth to transform the church or the world. Why on earth, then, did I allow myself to stand for election to this body? Why would I subject myself to 10 days of budget for- mulating, liturgical revisions and all the hoopla that goes along with General Convention? There have been moments when I am not entirely certain. There have been moments when I thought this was a grave error in judgment. It has certainly put additional strain on the staff, on my family and on the parish as a whole. I stood for election because when the body gets together, we are made stronger by our com- mon bonds. I stood for election because of the opportunity for transformation through relation- ship, the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ. The resolutions, the budget processes, the commit- tee reports and all the hoopla that goes along with General Convention are not the most important thing that we will do in Salt Lake City. We will stand together to worship a God who chose to come and be among us. And just as God chooses to be among us, he calls us to be with one an- other. Now, there will be news reports out of General Convention. There will be issues that may un- settle you. There will be pundits and projections and all manner of reasons for handwringing. What will draw the media attention will be controversy. But this is not the first time that contro- versy has embroiled this gathering. This is not the first time that General Convention has under- taken difficult issues, nor will it be the last. This is the 78th General Convention of the Episcopal Church and we have not been able to kill her yet. Because we cannot kill the church! Regardless of what we do as a body in our legislative sessions or committee meetings, we will lift our voices in praise and worship, hear the Word of God proclaimed, and we will celebrate the Eucharist reminding us all of what is always primary for us as Christian people. While the world focuses on trouble, what should draw the attention of the people of the church is our unity in Christ. Nothing that happens in Salt Lake City is going to dramatically change the work we are doing with one another at Nativity. Nothing that you hear on the news or see on television should in- form you more about our common life of worship and our common work of ministry than Sunday mornings and the daily worship of the church. Whatever the world believes, whatever the world says about us, does not change who we are. We are the people of Christ. We are His disciples. We are the body of Christ making His life and presence known in the world, and nothing that the world does will overcome that mission in this life, or in the world to come. Peter + From the Curate: My sermon on June 21 included the reminder that we, as Chris- tians, are called to speak Peace in lifes storms and to bring the comfort of Jesus Christs abiding love to those experiencing pain, grief or crisis. The following day the church campus was filled with songs and laughter as children gathered for Vacation Bible School. These sounds of joy and lighthearted fun reminded me that we are to accompany one another through all of lifes experiences. The Apostle Paul tells us in Romans chapter 12 that we are to rejoice with those who rejoice, and weep with those who weep. As some- one who tends to seek out people who need consoling, I find Pauls words to be a wonderful reminder to not allow myself to become so narrowly focused that I forget that I am also called to share in others joy. Paul tells us that we should Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering and persevere in prayer. In each of these exhortations from Romans 12, Pauls focus is first on joy! Our VBS theme this year was 123 The Holy Trinity. I found talking about the mystery of the Trinity to be another wonderful reminder to keep our hearts and minds open to experiencing the fullness of shared life in community. Each day stories, songs and activities focused on one aspect of the person of God. We are made in Gods image mind, body and spirit. Listening to the children learn about Gods desire for creation, I pondered how our intellects mirror, though imperfectly, this creative impulse and energy. When we are healthy we are seeking to grow and develop each day, broadening our understanding. In our flesh we are a reflection of Jesus, the Word made flesh who dwelt among us, sharing our nature and healing our wounds by reconciling us to God. Jesus bids us to use our hands to serve others. We have been given the gift of a consciousness that af- fords the ability to sympathize and empathize with others. Like the Holy Spirit, we can be moved by Gods love through the impulse of our spirit as we walk with one another through life. We can, by Gods grace, be knit to one another in love. As I write this, members of the congregation are busily preparing for a memorial service. They are mov- ing tables and carrying items from the kitchen to the library and choir room. As they go they are walking on images written in sidewalk chalk leftover from yesterdays VBS fun. The Bridge club that meets in the par- ish hall will arrive close to the same time that others are gathering in another part of the campus for the sched- uled service. There are still props leftover from VBS on the tables in the parish hall, left there so those attend- ing services on Sunday can see them. Some might see dissonance in all this, the quick movement from joy to grief to joy; I see the life God calls us to live together as a community of faith. I see the family of God living life in all the fullness we are meant to experience, together as the one body. So we, who are many, are one body in Christ, and individually we are members of one another.

  • Law, Counsel, and Commonwealth: Languages of Power in the Early English Reformation
    Law, Counsel, and Commonwealth: Languages of Power in the Early English Reformation Christine M. Knaack Doctor of Philosophy University of York History April 2015 2 Abstract This thesis examines how power was re-articulated in light of the royal supremacy during the early stages of the English Reformation. It argues that key words and concepts, particularly those involving law, counsel, and commonwealth, formed the basis of political participation during this period. These concepts were invoked with the aim of influencing the king or his ministers, of drawing attention to problems the kingdom faced, or of expressing a political ideal. This thesis demonstrates that these languages of power were present in a wide variety of contexts, appearing not only in official documents such as laws and royal proclamations, but also in manuscript texts, printed books, sermons, complaints, and other texts directed at king and counsellors alike. The prose dialogue and the medium of translation were employed in order to express political concerns. This thesis shows that political languages were available to a much wider range of participants than has been previously acknowledged. Part One focuses on the period c. 1528-36, investigating the role of languages of power during the period encompassing the Reformation Parliament. The legislation passed during this Parliament re-articulated notions of the realm’s social order, creating a body politic that encompassed temporal and spiritual members of the realm alike and positioning the king as the head of that body. Writers and theorists examined legal changes by invoking the commonwealth, describing the social hierarchy as an organic body politic, and using the theme of counsel to acknowledge the king’s imperial authority.

This trio, together with he had just returned to his post in Naples after four three others born slightly earlier – the Frenchman months in Florence and was busy composing his first Jean-Philippe Rameau and two other Germans (the two operas.

During the first decade of the eighteenth century, Italian opera successfully penetrated the English theatrical tradition, and by 1711, with the premiere of Handel’s Rinaldo, the foreign art had conquered its English audience.2 However, this was not a peaceful conquest. The importation of Italian opera provoked British criticism, censure, and ridicule as it emerged on the London stage. British authors approached their arguments in different ways, some verging on or even embracing xenophobia, others attempting to laugh Italian opera out of the country.

  • 1 Early Years, 1685–1703
    Cambridge University Press 978-1-107-13925-1 — Bach Peter Williams Excerpt More Information – 1 Early years, 1685 1703: background, family, studies The Obituary is headed ‘the Honourable Johann Sebastian Bach, world- famous in organ-playing, Royal Polish and Electoral Saxon Court Com- poser and Music Director in Leipzig’, and begins Johann Sebastian Bach belongs to a family in all of whose members equally a love for and skill in music seem, as a common gift, to have been imparted by nature. Emanuel Bach, presumably responsible for these words, was familiar with the outlines of his family’s musical history, since quite apart from any anecdotes about it that circulated in the family, his father had spent time around the age of fifty compiling on paper a selective genealogy. This is the ‘Origin of the musical-Bach family’, Ursprung der musicalisch-Bachischen Familie (Dok. I, pp. 255–61), a Genealogy known to Emanuel in whose household it was later copied: a unique source of information about the family tree and, in the sparseness of other evidence, used ever since in all kinds of connections. This is a document, often since referred to as a ‘table’, into which something can be read about the composer, his interests, his industry, even now and then his opinions. Although for reasons that can only be guessed Bach contributed little to the published biographies and autobiographies of the day, he did compile a genealogical list either from scratch after many time-consuming enquiries or, more likely, by revising and enlarging an older document begun by a previous member of this large family.

  • The Hidden Lives of Helen Leishman by Thomas W. Campbell
    The Hidden Lives of Helen Leishman By Thomas W. Campbell Originally published in Women Church: An Australian Journal of Feminist Studies in Religion (No. 33, Spring, 2003), pp. 13-17. ARY HELEN MARGARET LEISHMAN was born at Bunbury Western Australia on 17 April 1902. She died on 7 May 1995 in Launceston, Tasmania. M Helen's fascinating life journey included 22 years of service to the Anglican Church's Melanesian Mission in the Solomons and New Hebrides (now Vanuatu), and then more than 38 years in a Carmelite Monastery, where she died. Along the way nursing Sister Helen Leishman became Sister Madeleine of the Cross, a member of the Anglican Sisterhood, the Community of the Cross, then Sister Mary of the Cross, Carmelite nun within the Roman Catholic church. This is the story of her life up to the time she joined the Carmelite community in Longford Tasmania on 7 December 1953. Helen Leishman was born into a strongly religious family at Bunbury. Several generations of the ancestors of both her father and mother had filled significant positions as clergymen in the Church of Scotland, while some were well known and respected in the medical profession; at least one was an early missionary in Melanesia. Helen was the fifth of nine children (six girls, three boys), one older brother, a twin, not surviving infancy. After early childhood years spent in Coolgardie the family settled on a property near Highbury, a small farming village about 250 kilometres to the south east of Perth WA, the nearest large community being the service town of Narrogin.

  • Mediaeval Monumental Effigies Remaining in Cheshire
    iletttlnl: TITUS WILSON & SON, PRINTERS, 28, HIGHGATE. 1925. TRANSACTIONS. MEDIAEVAL MONUMENTAL EFFIGIES REMAINING IN CHESHIRE. By Fred. H. Crossley, F.S.A., F.R.A.I. Read 14 February, 1924. HE English mediaeval effigy had its beginnings in the T twelfth century, when the pictorial representation on the coffin lid grew, with the artist's power of delineation, from incised work into relief. At first only a flat modelling of the figure cut in arbitrary lines in a sunk panel on the slab, it gradually developed into an effigy surrounded by an architectural setting; then as the influence of the mason ceased to be felt, the setting gradually disappeared and in later periods is but seldom found. During the early part of the mediaeval period mason- craft predominated in effigy making, and during the first half of the thirteenth century no attempt was made to give the effigy a recumbent attitude, the figure being treated as architectural statuary, upright in character, the attitude and drapery being facsimiles of the mason's formula, used in the decoration of the great west fronts of the monastic and cathedral churches erected at that time. The bishops hold a staff and give the benediction, the knights are straight-legged and grasp a sword, the animal at the feet suggesting the corbel upon which the figure stood; the only note of recumbency is a pillow placed beneath the head. After 1240 the recumbent attitude was frankly adopted, and knights were carved with their legs crossed, partly to strengthen the figure at its weakest place, and also to show ease of position.
