http://www.mindmagi.demon.co.uk/Bacon/Life/contents.htm

Extractions: Overview of the life of Francis Bacon Rawley's Life of Bacon William Rawley(1588-1667) became Bacon's domestic chaplain and secretary shortly after the latter was made Lord Keeper. After Bacon's death Rawley edited a number of his works and became the (self-appointed) guardian of Bacon's legacy. His life of Bacon was published in 1657 alongside a collection of Bacon's English works in the Resuscitatio Aubrey's Description of Verulam and Gorhambury The antiquary John Aubrey (1626-1697) visited Verulam and Gorhambury in 1656 and provided the fullest account we have of the house on which Bacon lavished great attention. Ben Jonson, 'Lord Bacon's Birthday' Ben Jonson wrote this ode in 1621, to celebrate the sixieth birthday of the Lord Chancellor. A lavish banquet was held on the occasion at York House, which was leased by the Archbishop of York to the incumbent Lord Keeper. As Jonson mentions in the poem, Bacon was born in the house, during his father's tenure as Lord Keeper. Aubrey's Account of the Death of Bacon The first printed account of Bacon's death, by Pierre Amboise (1631) described him as staying out of doors too long while conducting experiments into the effects of cold. The celebrated account given by Aubrey, on the authority of Thomas Hobbes, is far more picturesque. Bacon's Letter to the Earl of Arundel This letter written by Bacon to Thomas Howard, earl of Arundel, to explain his presence in the earl's house where he had been taken after being taken ill on a journey lends some credence to Aubrey's account. It was printed by Tobie Matthew in his

http://www.terrynorm.ic24.net/sin eating.htm

Extractions: Pages 70 - 76. A biography which recently proved to be of considerable interest to me was that written by Paxton Hood on the life and times of that fiery Welsh preacher, Christmas Evans (1). In the first chapter of the work, the author deals with the characteristics of Welsh preaching during the period 1750-1850, and also deals in a somewhat romantic manner with the Welsh language and its speakers' superstitions. Whilst dealing in detail with some of these superstitions, he says: "No doubt the proclamation of the Gospel and the elevated faith which its great truths bring in its train, broke the fascination, the charm and power of many of these superstitions, but they lingered even until the last forty or fifty years-indeed the superstition of the sin-eater is said to linger even now in the secluded vale of Cwmaman in Carmarthenshire." (2) Being a native of the Amman Valley, my interest and curiosity in the sin-eater were naturally aroused. Subsequent research revealed that the duty of the sin-eater was to take upon himself the sins of a deceased person. Upon the death of an inhabitant of a locality, the sin-eater would be summoned and would place a plateful of salt covered with a slice of bread upon the breast of the deceased. After the recitation of appropriate charms over the body, the sin-eater would then proceed to eat both bread and salt, and wash them down with a tankard of beer. It was generally believed that the sins of the deceased were transferred to the unfortunate wretch through his consumption of the salt and bread. A paltry sum of sixpence or a shilling would then be paid to him before he was driven over the threshold to the sound of oaths, and threats never to return again.

Wieder andere verspüren diese Liebe in so überreichem Maße, dass sie nicht bei der bloßen Bewunderung verharren, sondern versuchen, sie in neuen Formen auszudrücken. Diese Schöpfung von Schönheit nennt man Kunst. ( Ralph Waldo Emerson) Unter der Rubrik WER? finden Sie etwas über die Geschichte und die Erbauer von Stonehenge. Unter dem Abschnitt WIE? ist erklärt, wie man sich den Bau von der Anlage vorzustellen hat.

Edited by Robert M. Vermaat , it features narrative histories, original source documents and important texts, extensive bibliographies, reading lists, informative articles by guest writers, maps, polls and more. This section has some articles about the more scholarly aspects of Wansdyke, such as its probable date, purpose, alingmentments and ways of construction. Also, about the strategic questions that arise: who were the enemy, is this earthwork anything like Hadrian's wall, etc. But the human element will not be forgotten: who gave the order to undertake this massive project? Were it the concerned Late Roman citizens of Wiltshire? Or a powerful landowner, such as Ambrosius? Or might it have been Arthur himself?

Extractions: En estos tiempos de depravación literaria, no estaría mal volver la vista a libros olvidados como 'Architectonica Sacra' y 'Miscellanies' (1696), que demuestran que Aubrey, además de gran arqueólogo era también un gran escritor, aunque demasiado lúcido quizá como para ser leído en la postmodernidad. Lectores Opinan No encontre nada interesante en los amores de Shakespeare, creo k más allá de si era gay o no, o si era adultero, más importante es su obra literaria. Creo k has caido precisamente en el amarillismo en tu escrito. Mejor comenta a "La Fierecilla Domada" o "Sueño de una noche de verano", k en mi humilde opinión, merecen más tus reflexiones.

Extractions: KÉPEK A XVII. század közepén John Aubrey állította elsõként, hogy a brit kõkörök druida templomok voltak. Egyikkortársa ,,ügyefogyott, kalandozó, szeszélyes, néha csaknem õrült" személyként írta le , de ez nem tántorította el a késõbbi romantikus költõket és mûvészeket. A Stonehege-t ábrázoló festményeket, mint pl. John Constable mûve , hogy fokozzák a kövek félelmet keltõ voltát, kegyetlen idõjárási környezetben örökítették meg. John Aubrey (1626-1697), a régész írt elõször Stonehege és a druidák közötti esetleges kapcsolatról. Geoffrey of Monmouth középkori író szerint Merlin, a varázsló szálította Stonehenge köveit a Salisbury-fennsíkra. A XIV. századi kódex illusztrációján látható, amint két riadt csodáló alak között minden erõlkedés nélkül helyez el egy súlyos áthidaló gerendát. A néphagyomány másik elterjedt hiedelme szerint kõvé dermedt óriások alkotják a kõköröket.

Extractions: Biography (from the Grek bios , life, and graphia , writing), that form of history which is applied, not to races or masses of men, but to an individual. The earliest use of the word biographia To Switzerland appears due the honour of having given birth to the earliest biographical dictionary ever compiled, the Bibliotheca Universalis of Konrad Gesner (1516-1565), published at Zurich in Latin, Greek and Hebrew, from 1545 to 1549. Avery rare work, by a writer of the greatest obscurity, the Prosopographia of Verdier de Vauprivas, published at Lyons in 1573, professed to deal with the lives of all illustrious persons who had flourished since the beginning of the world. In Spanish literature Fernan Perez de Guzman (1378-146o), with great originality, enshrined, in his Generations and Likenesses, a series of admirable literary portraits; he has been called the Plutarch of Spain.. But, in spite of numerous lives of saints, poets and soldiers, Spanish literature has not excelled in biography, nor has it produced a single work of this class which is universally read. In Germany there is little to record before the close of the 18th century. Yenra provides feature news about emerging trends, technologies, and products. A complete list of topics can be found in

http://www.catarchive.com/detailPages/741215.html

Extractions: Roy Dotrice performs excerpts from his one-man show "Brief Lives", based on the diaries of John Aubrey, 17th century wit, gossip, antiquarian and writer. "Brief Lives" had two good runs on Broadway in the 60's and 70's. Here is Aubrey at the end of his life, an old man in a room cluttered with his collections, recalling Elizabethan customs, personalities and folklore and what the objects he has carefully saved tell about the past. It is a monologue with lots of stage business; funny, informative, and touching. Aubrey (1626-1697) was well educated and made it his business to know and write about the eminent men of his time. Yet he died unknown and his "Lives" was not even discovered for another century. 1974.
