Slctccstcvsljtvc Antr
Slctccstcvsljtvc antr 10th January, 1855. A MEETING was held in the Town Library, Guild Hall, Leicester, for the purpose of establishing this society. The Venerable the Archdeacon of Leicester was in the chair. He requested Mr. Ingram (the honorary secretary, pro tempore) to read the letters received from various persons who had signified their desire to become members.—The first was from the Bishop of the Diocese, who also expressed his willingness to promote the objects of the society. The second was from Earl Howe, regretting his inability to attend. In a previous letter his lordship stated " I shall be very happy to be enrolled a member, and I assure you I take a decided interest in your proceedings/' Letters from the Rev. G. E. Gillett (mentioning that the Duke of Rutland would accept the office of Patron); from Sir F. G. Fowke (excus ing his non-attendance on the ground of ill health, which con fined him to his room); and from Mr. Geoffrey Palmer (apolo gizing for his inability to be present)—were also laid before the meeting. This part of the business being concluded, the venerable Chairman called on Mr. W. Perry-Herrick, who rose to move the first resolution. He expressed his gratification at being able to take part in the formation of a society which he felt certain would be attended with many beneficial effects, in conducing to the study of eccle siastical architecture and general antiquities in the county. He stated his regret that he was so little acquainted with either Archaeology or Architecture ; but that he knew sufficient to enable him to appreciate the value of the labours of those who had leisure to devote themselves more particularly to these interesting pur suits, and he hoped, by associating with them at the meetings of the society, he might improve his knowledge, and receive much information and instruction.

Antique French Altar Corpus Christi Hardwood Cross & Base
anticSwiss 01/10/2021 06:45:41 http://www.anticswiss.com Antique French Altar Corpus Christi Hardwood Cross & Base FOR SALE ANTIQUE DEALER Period: 20° secolo - 1900 Regent Antiques London Style: Altri stili +44 2088099605 447836294074 Height:28cm Width:18cm Depth:9cm Price:300€ DETAILED DESCRIPTION: This is a distinctive antique French dark patinated altar Corpus Christi of Christ crucified on a hardwood cross, circa 1900 in date. The details are very impressive, the Corpus Christi is very life-like, wearing a flowing linen cloth, his eyes closed and head upper-turned. The hardwood cross and stepped base are highly evocative featuring suggestive stylized thorns - hence, recalling the woven crown of thorns that was placed on the head of Jesus during the events leading up to the crucifixion. Pieces like these really are in a class of their own, as such, work beautifully anywhere. The craftsmanship is second to none throughout all aspects of this magnificent altar Corpus Christi which is sure to add an unparalleled touch of sacred art to your home. Condition: In excellent condition, please see photos for confirmation. Dimensions in cm: Height 28 x Width 18 x Depth 9 Dimensions in inches: Height 11.0 x Width 7.1 x Depth 3.5 The Christian cross, seen as a representation of the instrument of the crucifixion of Jesus, is the best-known symbol of Christianity. It is related to the crucifix (a cross that includes a corpus, usually a three-dimensional representation of Jesus' body) and to the more general family of cross symbols, the term cross itself being detached from the original specifically Christian meaning in modern English (as in many other western languages).

THE ARMS OF THE ROYAL AND PARLIAMENTARY BURGHS OF SCOTLAND. BY JOHN, MARQUESS OF BUTE, K.T., J. R. N. MACPHAIL, AND H. W. LONSDALE. With 131 Engravings on Wood and 11 other Illustrations. Crown 4to, 2 Guineas net. ABERCHIRDER. Argent, a cross patee gules. The burgh seal leaves no doubt of the tinctures — the field being plain, and the cross scored to indicate gules. One of the points of difference between the bearings of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs on the one hand and those of the I Police Burghs on the other lies in the fact that the former carry castles and ships to an extent which becomes almost monotonous, while among the latter these bearings are rare. On the other hand, the Police Burghs very frequently assume a charge of which A 079 2 Aberchirder. examples, in the blazonry of the Royal and Parliamentary Burghs, are very rare : this is the cross, derived apparently from the fact that their market-crosses are the most prominent of their ancient monuments. In cases where the cross calvary does not appear, a cross of some other kind is often found, as in the present instance. We are informed that in assuming this device no special allusion was intended by the authorities of Aberchirder ; we should therefore conjecture that the charge was obtained by some course of syllogistic reasoning such as — burghs have crosses : this is a burgh ; therefore it ought to have a cross.

Ing Items Have Been Registered
ACCEPTANCES Page 1 of 26 March 2004 LoAR THE FOLLOWING ITEMS HAVE BEEN REGISTERED: ÆTHELMEARC Adriana vander Brugghe. Name change from Fiona Harpar and badge. (Fieldless) A furison sable. Submitted as Odriana vander Brugghe, the submitter requested authenticity for Flanders and allowed minor changes. Odriana was documented from Walraven van Nijmegen’s article "Dutch Womens’ Names before 1100" (http://www.geocities.com/Athens/1336/name1100vr.html). The byname vander Brugghe is dated to 1465 in Loveday Toddekyn’s article "Flemish Names from Bruges" (http://www.s-gabriel.org/docs/bruges/). As submitted, the elements of this name had a weirdness for a temporal disparity of greater than 300 years. In that amount of time, most languages in our period evolved and changed to some degree. Therefore, a name authentic for pre-1100 would likely have at least minor changes to spelling of the byname. A name authentic for 1465 would likely have at least minor changes to the given name. In this case, the College found information regarding authentic forms of this given name appropriate for late period. The submitted given name Odriana was only found in Walraven’s article (dated to pre-1100). The form Adriana is found dated to 1391-1428 in Guntram von Wolkenstein’s article "Vlaamse Vrouwennamen" ’Dutch Women’s Names’ (http://www.s-gabriel.org/names/guntram/vlaamse.htm). Adriana is also found dated to 1589 in Loveday’s article cited above. As the form Odriana seems to have fallen out of use by the 15th C (the date for the submitted byname), we have changed the given name to the form Adriana in order to make this name temporally consistent for a single time period in Flanders in order to meet the submitter’s request for authenticity.

Concerning the Evolution of Some Reverse Types of the Anglo-Norman Coinage
CONCERNING THE EVOLUTION OF SOME REVERSE TYPES OF THE ANGLO-NORMAN COINAGE. BY WILLIAM SHARP OGDEN. HE object of this paper is to draw attention to the patterns or devices displayed on the reverse faces of a number of the early post-Conquest pennies, and, by remarking their distinctive features, to show how in some instances designs apparently quite distinct from each other are merely variants traceable to a remote but evident prototype. Again, others will be shown to have arisen from the adoption and multiplication of religious symbols or emblems, grouped around or attached to a special central figure. Some of these display considerable ingenuity and variety of fancy in the elaboration of designs constructed from purely symbolic detail. These symbols, although limited in number, are in their own proper forms treated with great elasticity and boldness. Location of mint, lapse of time, and local method of expression are, however, all factors in producing really surprising varieties of an originally simple form ; so that it. is easy to see that when these multiple divergencies are used as decorative and intentionally symbolic detail, we may expect an artistic, if somewhat intricate, result; and certainly nowhere in the wide field of Numismatics can there be found such infinite license and variety of pattern, produced by simple forms enriching a dominant central figure, at once the most conservative and austere. It is worthy of note that in the infancy of Numismatic art, when it first adventured on its most interesting career, the little ungainly clumps of metal were impressed on one side only with the seal or badge of the sovereign, as the sole charge ; thus the newly invented coin 58 Concerning the Evolution of some Reverse possessed an obverse but no reverse, unless the rude punch mark of the standard die may be considered as such.
