Book Description
Excerpt from Six Years a Priest and a Decade a Protestant It is impossible for a really Protestant mind not to feel a respect for those religious catholics who retain the title only from the accidents of birth and education, and not from ill-feeling toward the evangelical church, or on account of any sin or error of their own. There are a number of these to be found, both in Europe and America, in the present day; and, for my part, I entertain an esteem and regard for them, and should be happy to have it in my power, under any circumstances, to enlighten and console them. Since I have been lecturing on Romanism many Roman Catholics called upon me, either in person or by letter, asking for advice. I attended to their Spiritual wishes and shall most cheerfully comply with them hereafter. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Archbishop Ramsey
Author: Peter WebsterPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317179676
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Archbishop Michael Ramsey’s archiepiscopate from 1961 to 1974 saw profound renegotiations of the relationship of the Church of England with its own flock, with the nation more widely, with the Anglican church worldwide, and with the other Christian churches. Drawing from unique source material in the Lambeth Palace Library archives and reproducing many original writings of Ramsey for the first time, this book explores key questions which surround Ramsey’s tenure. How did Ramsey react to the rapid hollowing-out of the regular constituency of the church whilst at the same time seeing sweeping changes in the manner in which the church tried to minister to those members? What was his role in the widening of the church's global vision, and the growing porousness of its borders with other denominations? And how did the nature of the role of archbishop as figurehead change in this period?

Book Description
If you thought you knew the story of Anna in The King and I, think again. As this riveting biography shows, the real life of Anna Leonowens was far more fascinating than the beloved story of the Victorian governess who went to work for the King of Siam. To write this definitive account, Susan Morgan traveled around the globe and discovered new information that has eluded researchers for years. Anna was born a poor, mixed-race army brat in India, and what followed is an extraordinary nineteenth-century story of savvy self-invention, wild adventure, and far-reaching influence. At a time when most women stayed at home, Anna Leonowens traveled all over the world, witnessed some of the most fascinating events of the Age of Empire, and became a well-known travel writer, journalist, teacher, and lecturer. She remains the one and only foreigner to have spent significant time inside the royal harem of Siam. She emigrated to the United States, crossed all of Russia on her own just before the revolution, and moved to Canada, where she publicly defended the rights of women and the working class. The book also gives an engrossing account of how and why Anna became an icon of American culture in The King and I and its many adaptations.
