Book Description
Excerpt from Devotions From Ancient and Medieval Sources In other words, the object of the book throughout is not scientific, but practical; not to furnish exact translations of liturgical texts, but to assist devotion. Hence I have not scrupled to modify the texts translated where it seemed to me de sirable to do so. In ninety-nine cases out of a hundred the modification consists merely in omission. In some cases the omission was dictated by the feeling that the things omitted were at variance with the teaching or practice of the English Church, but in the majority of cases it has been due simply to a desire for brevity and compression. Many of the Moz arabic prayers in particular are, in the original. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Devotions in the Ancient Way of Offices: With Psalms, Hymns, and Prayers, for Every Day of the Week, and Every Holy Day in the Year Besides, they objected, that Mr. Dorrington had contracted the four daily offices into two, that he had omitted the Lessons; as many of which as are Canonical Scripture, the devout Author of this reform hath continued in the version of the Church of England that he had not reformed the Office for the Dead; that in the other he had left out many things, which they think as useful as any he had taken in, together with the Versicles, Responsories, and Antiphons, as such; which with the Psalms make up that alternate way of devotion; which, as being the most edifying and excellent way of worship, was used in the best and purest ages of Christianity, and truly resembles the worship and devotions of the great choir of saints and angels in the Church triumphant, that most glorious Jeru salem, which is above.

Book Description
In her study Chaoluan Kao offers a comprehensive investigation of popular piety at the time of the European Reformations through the study of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Protestant prayerbooks. It pursues a historical-contextual approach to spirituality by integrating social and religious history in order to yield a deeper understanding of both the history of Christian piety and of church history in general. The study explores seven prayerbooks by German authors and seventeen English prayerbooks from the Reformation and post-Reformation as well as from Lutheran, Anglican, and Puritan traditions, examining them as spiritual texts with social and theological significance that helped disseminate popular understandings of Protestant piety. Early Protestant piety required intellectual engagement, emphasized a faithful and heartfelt attitude in approaching God, and urged regular exercise in prayer and reading. Early Protestant prayerbooks modeled for their readers a Protestant piety that was a fervent spiritual practice solidly grounded in the social context and connections of its practitioners. Through those books, Reformation could be understood as redefining the meanings of people's spiritual lives and re-discovering of a pious life. In a broader sense, they functioned as a channel of historical and spiritual transition, which not only tells us the transformation and transmission of Reformation historically but also signifies the development of Christian spirituality. The social-historical study of the prayerbooks furthers our understanding of continuity, change, and inter-confessional influence in the Christian piety of early modern Europe.

Book Description
Domestic devotion has become an increasingly important area of research in recent years, with the publication of a number of significant studies on the early modern period in particular. This Special Issue aims to build on these works and to expand their range, both geographically and chronologically. This collection focuses on lived religion and the devotional practices found in the domestic settings of late medieval and early modern Europe. More particularly, it investigates the degree to which the experience of personal or familial religious practice in the domestic realm intersected with the more public expression of faith in liturgical or communal settings. Its broad geographical range (spanning northern, southern, central and eastern Europe) includes practices related to Christianity, Judaism and Islam. This Special Issue will be of interest to historians, art historians, medievalists, early modernists, historians of religion, anthropologists and theologians, as well as those interested in the history of material religious culture. It also offers important insights into research areas such as gender studies, histories of the emotions and histories of the senses.
