Hardcover. Condition: New. A new unused book. About the book >.>.> There follow two main parts. Part II describes the posts and offices and names the ministers who filled them, with some circumstances of the association. Much of this is not new material, though it is hoped that it will be convenient to have it all in one place. But the treatment of parish ministry over the period of the Civil War and Interregnum is, I believe, new and needed. What with ejections, sequestrations, and intrusions, not to mention the neglect or destruction of records, any historian may struggle to pin a named minister to his living, or find who was ministering at a given parish. Thus Latimer and Lyon Turner describe Matthew Hassard as having been at St Mary Redcliffe in 1639 while Sacks has him as minister of St Philip's; a position filled until 1650, according to Mortimer (following Wood), by Thomas Speed; and all of them are wrong. This is offered as the first full and correct guide to parish ministry and lecturers in this awkward period. (LL).…

Hardcover. Condition: New. A new unused book. About the book >.>.> First, though Bristol was clearly the second trading port of England in the later seventeenth century and its merchants were the dominating group, this is the only Bristol merchant's ledger of the period known to survive. There is no other source which gives such a detailed picture of a Bristol merchant's trading at this time. It is especially valuable because Speed was engaged both in the old trade with Southern Europe and the new with the Americas. More fundamentally, the ledger also supplies an insight into the rationale and ethos of overseas trading. Moreover, the detailed picture which it affords over nine years can be fitted into an outline of Speed's trade over forty years. In fact, Speed is by far the most fully documented of all the merchants and of all the Quaker leaders in the city where both so flourished in the second half of the seventeenth century. The historical significance of his ledger thus parallels that of John Smythe, another man of consequence, over a century earlier (Bristol Record Society vol. XXVIII 1974). The Ledger itself is one of the main sources for the life of the man as well as the merchant. This is.…

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Immediate dispatch from Somerset. Nice book in great condition. Pages in excellent unused condition. No notes or highlighting. See images. Fantastic book. About the book >.>.> The seventeenth century saw non-conformist denominations spring up and eventually survive savage persecution to achieve the right to operate outside the official Church of England. Bristol, with a cathedral, seventeen parishes, six gathered churches and two Quaker meetings, was heavily involved in this struggle. It was a confusing period and one of the aims of this volume is to sort out, for the first time, just who was ministering where and when; placing and documenting some 150 names. But the other aim is to show, by excerpt, something of the content of religious ministry over this century. This draws much on sermons, then regarded as the major function of ministry, and a staple of publishers. From sermons and other devotional works a rather surprising but interesting conclusion emerges: that the non-conformists, except perhaps the Quakers, did not differ greatly on the central tenets of their faith. Rather it was disputes over organisation and hierarchy, the forms of worship, the provenance of mi.…
