Book Description
Excerpt from The Life and Works of Arthur Hall of Grantham: Member of Parliament, Courtier and First Translator of Homer Into English The appearance of this book, begun in 1912, has been delayed by the many vicissitudes it has undergone. For upwards of a year the MS. lay at the American Embassy in Berlin, and even when it had reached the author again, the upheavals of the war were not conducive to its completion. It aims at giving a thorough account of one whose literary abilities and achievements were small, but who by his manysidedness brings us into contact with various aspects of the Elizabethan age, and therefore repays study. The idea of such a study of Arthur Hall was first suggested to me by Professor O. L. Jiriczek, to whom I am greatly indebted, not only for this, but for many other kindnesses shown to me during the four years we were colleagues. From my friend Mr. L. L. Mackall I have received valuable assistance in matters bibliographical, whilst Dr. Ernest Classen has put me under an obligation by collating quotations from various rare works at the British Museum. To Mr. A. E. Prince for his help in deciphering certain of Hall's letters, when my work was in its early stages, I would also express my thanks. Miss Greta Linder and Miss B. Smythe rendered me great service by copying the translations of Hall and Salel at a time when these were inaccessible to me. I would also mention my indebtedness to Canon Carr Smith and Colonel Alfred Welby for information concerning the Hall family, as also to Mr. W. A. White for details of his copy of Hall's "Homer." My cordial acknowledgments are also due to Professor T. F. Tout for invaluable suggestions and much kind encouragement.

Writing the history of parliament in Tudor and early Stuart England
Author: Paul CavillPublisher: Manchester University Press
ISBN: 1526115913
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
This volume of essays explores the rise of parliament in the historical imagination of early modern England. The enduring controversy about the nature of parliament informs nearly all debates about the momentous religious, political and governmental changes of the period – most significantly, the character of the Reformation and the causes of the Revolution. Meanwhile, scholars of ideas have emphasised the historicist turn that shaped political culture. Religious and intellectual imperatives from the sixteenth century onwards evoked a new interest in the evolution of parliament, framing the ways that contemporaries interpreted, legitimised and contested Church, state and political hierarchies. Parliamentary ‘history’ is explored through the analysis of chronicles, more overtly ‘literary’ texts, antiquarian scholarship, religious polemic, political pamphlets, and of the intricate processes that forge memory and tradition.
