  • August Letter Dear Friends, for the Past 3-4 Weeks I Have Had Plenty Of
    August Letter Dear Friends, For the past 3-4 weeks I have had plenty of time to sit and think, both when I was in hospital and now that I’m back home. Inevitably, my thoughts have turned to the stumble which brought on this enforced idleness. From time to time, misfortune strikes, but how do we deal with it? It is tempting to feel sorry for oneself but that doesn’t get us very far. I tend to follow the philosophy of the Monty Python team and ‘Always look on the bright side of life’. So many things could have gone disastrously wrong following the fall but didn’t and I feel so fortunate that this was so. In the Old Testament, we often read of individuals (or tribes or nations) who suffer some calamity - illness, defeat in battle or widespread famine - and the cause is put down to people having offended God. We don’t tend to think that way these days (though I have been examining my conscience). I hope we don’t need the prospect of divine retribution to prompt us to do what is right; our conscience and our faith should keep us on the right track.

CONOGRAPHY, as the derivation of the word shows, is the Science or Art of representation by images. By the study of I iconography not only can the artist invest his work with in- creased i nterest and meaning through the employment of appropriate emblems and attributes, but also the archaeologist, searching back through the pi0ture-book of ancient art, is enabled to read the mysterious and involved language in which our forefathers expressed their imagination and their beliefs, and so obtain a knowledge of their customs, their art and their religion. The artist, for his knowledge, goes to the great monuments of the Middle Ages—the West Front of Wells Cathedral, the sculptured portals of Rheims, Chartres and Amiens. The archaeologist relies on the translation of these remains given him by that great storehouse of mediaeval lore, the Golden Legend. This work, which was such a powerful fadtor in the religious life of the Middle Ages, is a compilation made about the year 1275 by a Dominican monk, Jacopo de Voragine, Archbishop of Genoa, his chief sources of information being the Ecclesiastical History of Eusebius, the Martyrologies of St.

It is the old term for what is now called interest of collectors. But these spoons are most fascinating to brass, an alloy of copper and zinc, made by the calamine process. study and possess. The pioneering work by Hilton Price is The terminology is rather confusing because in the Middle Ages excellently recorded in his book 'Old Base Metal Spoons' the word 'brass' was used to include bronze, an alloy of copper (Batsford, 1908). This deals with both pewter and latten spoons and tin. In the twelfth, thirteenth and fourteenth centuries, latten (in fact, it is not always clear to which he is referring).

Everybody knows that the phrase "born with a silver spoon in one’s mouth” means that a baby has ben born into a wealthy family. However, not everyone is aware that this phrase is rooted in the Catholic past of the UK and is almost 600 years old. In the Middle Ag- es, it was firmly believed that silver could drive out disease and new-born babies often had a piece of silver run around their gums to protect them. By the mid 1400’s it became fashionable for godparents to present their godchild with a silver spoon at their baptism. This fashion may have had its roots in the very distant past when it was not unusual for a child to be given its first Holy Communion on a spoon moments after Baptism. Spoons made of wood or pewter were also given as baptismal gifts by those who could not afford anything made out of silver, which was enormously expensive. Those therefore, who had godparents wealthy enough to give a silver spoon were seen as having been born into a privileged way of life and hence the phrase “born with a silver spoon in the mouth” began to circulate.

  • Ardaviciute Ramanauskiene Sp
    SPOONS WITH APOSTLE FIGURES IN LITHUANIA SKAISTĖ ARDAVIČIŪTĖ-RAMANAUSKIENĖ BALTICA 25 BALTICA Abstract Ten apostle spoons have been found in Lithuania during archaeological excavations and site surveys, and two have been brought to the museum by people who found them on their land. This article discusses their identification, material, context and provenance. Additionally, it is argued that apostle spoons, which for a long time were thought to be only used as chris- tening gifts, had other purposes. The distribution map reveals that all the apostle spoons were found inland, with the largest ARCHAEOLOGIA number concentrated in Vilnius, the capital of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. The apostle spoons that were found in Lithuania were probably made in the 17th century, and used until the first half of the 18th century. The features of the figures indicate that they were made in and imported from England and continental Europe. Of the 12 spoons analysed, only five apostles could be identified with certainty, and they correspond well with the most popular saints and names in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania in the 16th and 17th centuries. Key words: apostle spoon, Lithuania, christening present, Post-Medieval, England, German-speaking regions. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15181/ab.v25i0.1837 Introduction Post-Medieval Europe. The lack of systematic in-depth studies on apostle spoons has led to many unanswered The saints played an important role in Late Medieval questions, making it difficult primarily to provenance and Early Post-Medieval daily life.

    . an Jnnentorp of Cfturcft Plate in ©omeroet* Part VIL BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A., AND T, S. BUSH. "FN bringing out the seventh and final portion of the In- “L ventory, I gratefully acknowledge the valuable assist- ance given by a fellow-member of the Society, Mr. T. S. Bush, who undertook to collect information in the complicated ecclesiastical areas of the Bath and Keynsham Deaneries. His notes were handed over to be reduced to uniformity with my own. Without this help the work must have lagged for at least another year. Owing to the distance of the district worked over, practically Somerset trans-Mendipiana, I have been unusually dependent upon friends who have allowed me to use their houses as headquarters | and with my coadjutor have accumulated many pleasant memories of the willing spirit in which, with hardly an exception, the custodians of the plate helped our enquiries. * Part i in Vol. XLIII—Deaneries of Bruton, Castle Cary, Merston, Milborne, Port, Shepton Mallet „ ii in Vol. XLIV „ of Frome, Martock. „ iii in Vol. XLV „ of Crewkerne, Ilchester, Ilminster, Wiveliseombe. „ iv in Vol. XLVI „ of Dunster, Taunton, Wellington. „ V in Vol. XLVII „ of Bridgwater, Pawlett, Quantoekshead. „ vi in Vol. XLVIII „ of Axbridge, Burnham, Glastonbury. „ vii in Vol. XLIX „ of Bath, Chew, Keynsham, Locking, Midsomer Norton, Portishead.

Perhaps the first place is due to the inventor of the modern safety bicycle.
