Excerpt from Undercurrents of Church Life in the Eighteenth Century The object of this volume is to show that, notwithstanding the great changes which have taken place during the late centuries in the condition of the Church of England, its principles have remained the same, its doctrines and its general usages unchanged. An immense crisis arose after the fall of the Stuarts, when a new condition of things accompanied the reign of the Georges. Its result was a lowering of the line of teaching, and consequently a decline of the general tenor of Church life. What are known as the Broad and Low Church lines then arose; the higher school being steadily discountenanced by authority, and many being forced to withdraw, surrendering their cures, and continuing to minister, under the greatest possible difficulties, as Nonjurors.

This is the first book to explore the formation of musical 'classics' in regard to repertory and social context. It examines the performance of old music in eighteenth-century England, from the interest in music of the Elizabethan period at the beginning of the century, through the performance of works by Henry Purcell, Arcangelo Corelli, and other English and Italian composers, and the development of festivals that featured choral-orchestral works of Purcell and Handel. It concludes with the establishment of the Concert of Antient Music in 1776, where the traditions of performing old works came together as a self-conscious canon focused upon the work of Handel. The book examines closely the political and social reasons for these developments. In addition, it shows how they laid the groundwork for the classical-music tradition of the nineteenth century.

A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
