AbstractThe story of King Edgar being rowed on the River Dee at Chester in 973 by eight subordinate kings was once well known. This article examines how it was used in popular history writing from the eighteenth century onwards, with greatest development in the mid nineteenth century, and subsequent decline into its present obscurity. It served English political and cultural ends, being used to demonstrate the natural superiority of that race over the others in the Union, particularly the Scots. Decline of imperial sentiment and ignorance of pre-Conquest history have relegated it to incidental mention in county histories. 相似文献

This paper seeks to highlight the content and context of the conversion narratives written by Jews converting to Christianity in late sixteenth- and seventeenth-century England. It will be demonstrated that a non-Pauline pattern of conversion writing emerges. The content of these conversion treatises will be contextualized by looking at a whole range of English treatises concerning Jewish conversion, in particular those containing voices of “hermeneutical” Jewish converts. It will be argued that the period under scrutiny evinced a waning of the barriers surrounding Jewish conversion. 相似文献

The political and religious symbolism of buildings is of enduring interest in historical archaeology. Similarly, ideal concepts
in urban planning, and utopian communities have been of recent concern. This paper moves beyond iconography and ideology to
examine how a new, post-Civil War English elite tried to implement a policy of reforming their town as a New Jerusalem. A
group of merchant houses reveals an attempt to build Scripture into the physical environment, and establish the elite as Elect
“watchmen” over the lives and souls of the townspeople. Contemporary sermons are integral to the analysis, as are the agency
and inter-relationships of a tightly-knit social group. 相似文献
