Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Hierurgia Anglicana, Vol. 1: Documents and Extracts Illustrative of the Ceremonial of the Anglican Church The old plates are numbered vi. vii. and xiv. Of the testimony contained in the following pages, too much as well as too little may be made. The extracts are ´illustrative´ of post-Reformation usages. That, in certain particulars, they record universal or even widespread practice cannot be affirmed: for, historically considered, the facts recorded are in some cases obviously exceptional and abnormal. But it may be fairly maintained, that, broadly speaking, the extracts given bear witness to the continuance and survival of traditions, more or less strong, which have never been suffered to die out - traditions which happily are being recognised and invigorated on a considerable scale in our own day, as truer notions of liturgiology and ecclesiology prevail. It seems needful to add, that the existence of ornaments at a given date does not necessarily imply that they were then in use: in some cases, we have positive evidence to the contrary. As to the significance of the Hierurgia Anglicana, in its bearing on the continuity of English usages, nothing need be added to the admirable preface to the original edition which immediately follows. In the judgment of the present editor, the extracts from Puritan writers still remaining in the present edition should be read with caution; allowance being made for prejudice and exaggeration in statements drawn from such sources. As far as possible, all extracts have been carefully collated with the originals, and minor defects remedied.
