Book Description
Excerpt from Letters of John Mason Neale IT was hoped that many of the letters in this volume would have had a place in Mrs. Charles Towle's Memoir of John Mason Neale, published three years ago but the author found that the limitations of one volume forbade their inclusion, and it was then suggested that, if the book met with a favourable reception, it might be followed by a supplementary volume of letters. This idea has met with the warm approval of many of Dr. Neale's old friends and admirers, who, whilst charmed with the Memoir, have regretted that the subject Of it should not oftener speak for himself. Encouraged by this approval, his daughters, whilst conscious of their lack of literary skill, and of the difficulty of selection from so large a number of letters written upon such a variety of subjects, are emboldened to try and com plete in some measure the portrait of their father's Character, the outline of which has been drawn by the graceful pen of Mrs. Towle.

Masculinity and Spirituality in Victorian Culture
Author: Andrew Bradstock
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 0230294162
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 244
Book Description
In its specially-commissioned fourteen chapters, this important book discusses an impressively wide range of issues around the theme of male spirituality in the nineteenth century, drawing from history, cultural studies, art history and literary criticism. Topics explored include: ideological and iconographical representations of masculinity across the major Christian denominations; militarism and hymnody; male homosexuality and homoeroticism. The book is not afraid to explore controversial areas, nor to go beyond the generally acknowledged 'canon' of prescribers of gender identity: it includes, for example, leading nonconformist figures like William Booth and Charles Haddon Spurgeon, and early gay writers like John Addington Symonds.

The Image of the Middle Ages in Romantic and Victorian Literature
Author: Kevin L. Morris
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 0429576161
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Originally published in 1984, The Image of the Middle Ages in Romantic and Victorian Literature looks at the impact of medievalism in the 18th and 19th centuries and the importance of post-Enlightenment literary religious medievalism. The book suggests that religious medievalism was not a superficial cultural phenomenon and that the romantic spirit with which it was chronologically connected, was intimately associated with the metaphysical. The book suggests that this belief gave birth to the metaphysical yearning and cultural expression of the eighteenth and nineteenth century. The book seeks to clarify the post-Enlightenment relationship between aesthetic culture and ‘aesthetic’ religion, romanticism, medievalism and religious trends.

O Sing Unto the Lord
Author: Andrew Gant
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022646962X
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 481
Book Description
In this expansive cultural history, Andrew Gant traces English sacred music from the Latin chant of late antiquity to the great proliferation and diversification of styles seen in contemporary repertoires. The book explores church music in its great variety of forms and performance contexts: cathedral music and music performed at small country parishes, hymns sung in church and at gatherings, all the way up to today’s mixture and hybridization of the traditional and contemporary styles. Most of all, it illuminates how political battles and sweeping changes in worship affected the church music profession; how musicians, clergy, and worshipers responded; and how the repertory was reinvented many times over as a result. This work was first brought out by Profile Books in 2015. The author has contributed a new preface for our edition, offering reflections on English church music in its American contexts.
