Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Theological Tracts, Vol. 2: Selected and Original Jeremy Tatlor, one of the great names in English theology and literature, was born at Cambridge in 1613. His parents were in humble circumstances, but he had the honour of being a lineal descendant of Dr. Rowland Taylor, who suffered death at the stake on Aldham Common, near Hadleigh, in the third year of Queen Mary," amid the blessings and lamentations of his parishioners, and with a courageous and kindly cheerfulness which has scarcely its parallel even in those days of religious heroism." At three years of age he was sent to the Grammar school, and when thirteen years he was entered at Caius College, in his native city, as a sizar or poor scholar. Shortly after becoming Master of Arts in 1633, having previously been admitted to Holy Orders, he was for a time employed as Lecturer in St. Paul´s Cathedral, London, and from his youth as well as his eloquence excited great attention. In 1636 he procured a fellowship in All Souls College, Oxford, through the influence of Archbishop Laud, who also nominated him one of his Chaplains, and obtained for him the living of Uppingham, where, having married, he settled in 1640. In 1612, he was created D. D., previous to which he had been made Chaplain in Ordinary to Charles I., before whom he frequently preached, and whom he attended in several of his campaigns against the Parliament. - On the Parliament becoming victorious his living was sequestered, and he retired to Wales, and was hospitably received by the Earl of Carberry at Golden Grove, where he produced many of the works by which he has immortalized himself and enriched British literature.
