On the Abbey of S. Edmund at Bury by Montague Rhodes James Pdf

Excerpt from On the Abbey of S. Edmund at Bury: I, the Library, II, the Church Useless, however, I cannot think it, unless the gauging of the intellectual resources or the mental equipment of the men of old time be useless. In a modern biography it is often a chief point of interest to know what books the subject of the biography liked best - to what authors he owed most. And in a case like the present we are but extending the field a little, and ascertaining what authors were studied by a whole body of men who in their time were a mighty power in Eastern England, nay, at the ruling centre of England itself. I am not a historian, but I feel certain that it is worth while to know something about the literary and religious influences under which the members of so great a society as was the Abbey of Bury were educated. But I must approach the subject. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

The Abbey of Bury St Edmunds by Francis Kendrick Young Pdf

The Abbey of St Edmund was founded around the relics of St Edmund, king and martyr, patron saint of England in the Middle Ages, and grew to be one of the great religious establishments of medieval England. It controlled the adjoining town of Bury St Edmunds, owned vast riches, and its Abbots were major forces in the Church. The Abbey Church was one of the largest in Christendom, and the Abbey hosted kings and parliaments. Among the many influential monks was the poet John Lydgate. Relations with the town the Abbey dominated and controlled were often far from easy, and at times exploded into violence. A disastrous fire, and the collapse of the great tower, were among the catastrophes the monks had to endure, yet the Abbey became a European centre of art, culture and learning. â In this first complete history of the Abbey from foundation to dissolution, Francis Young draws on a wide variety of sources to explore the development of the Abbey over the centuries, disentangling the complex ruins that surround the surviving churches of St Mary and St James (the Cathedral). He considers the religious and political influence of the Abbots, the Abbey's wealth and regional power, and the draw of its relics. Five centuries after the Reformation, as the millennium of the Abbey's foundation in 1020 approaches, its impact on Bury St Edmunds and the country at large is still palpable. The book is fully illustrated, with plans and sketches of the Abbey in centuries past as well as modern photographs of its remains.
