Excerpt from The Greater Abbeys of England: Thomas Crumwell was Henry's vicar-general in Spirituals, and acting in this capacity he projected a royal visitation of all religious houses in the autumn of 1535. The subordinates chosen by the vicar-general for the work were worthy instruments of their master and their letters prove them to have been utterly unscrupulous and entirely reckless in their accusations. At the same time preachers were sent over the country to prepare the popular mind for the contemplated seizure of monastic property. These emissaries of Crumwell were instructed to orate against the monks as hypocrites, sorcerers and idle drones, etc.; to tell the people that the monks made the land unprofitable and that if the abbeys went down, the King would never want for any taxes again. The destruction of the monasteries consequently was not only an item in the general policy of Henry and his minister, but it was certainly determined upon before the Visitors were sent on their rounds, and hence was quite independent of any reports they sent in. It would be out of place to enter here into the details of the visitation. The work was done so rapidly that it was quite impossible that there could have been any serious inquiry into the moral state of the houses visited. That these men who acted for Crumwell in this matter. Suggested in their letters and reports all manner of evil against the good name of the monasteries, is true, and was quite what was to be expected. ., Chatto & Widus, 1908, 2.5, New. After the establishment of the Turkish Republic, Turkey's secularized society disdained the ney, the Sufi reed flute long associated with Islam. The instrument's remarkable revival in today's cities has inspired the creation of teaching and learning sites that range from private ney studios to cultural and religious associations and from university clubs to mosque organizations.Banu enay documents the years-long training required to become a neyzen-a player of the ney. The process holds a transformative power that invites students to create a new way of living that involves alternative relationships with the self and others, changing perceptions of the city, and a dedication to craftsmanship. enay visits reed harvesters and travels from studios to workshops to explore the practical processes of teaching and learning. She also becomes an apprentice ney-player herself, exploring the desire for spirituality that encourages apprentices and masters alike to pursue ney music and its scaffolding of Islamic ethics and belief., 6, Olschki. cm. 17 x 24, 240 pp. con 10 tavv. f.t. Historiae Musicae Cultores - Biblioteca Questi madrigali spirituali erano in parte da eseguirsi all?interno della basilica mantovana di Santa Barbara, in parte da cantarsi in lode di S. Francesco. Una considerazione ravvicinata dei testi poetici e musicali - proposti integralmente e in edizione critica - rivela sia l?adesione a certe rilevanti tendenze compositive dell?epoca, sia il legame saldissimo con il pi? ampio contesto teologico e culturale proprio della Controriforma. These spiritual madrigals were partly to be executed inside the Mantuan basilica of St Barbara and partly to be sung in praise of St Francis. A closer look at the poetical and musical texts - integrally proposed and in a critical edition - reveals both the adherence to certain composition tendencies of that period and the strong bond with the diffuse theological and cultural context of the Counter-Reform. 478 gr. 240 p. . nuovo.
