ABSTRACT The prayerbook of the early Tudor abbot of St. Peter’s, Westminster, John Islip, remains as Manchester, John Rylands Library, MS Latin 165. Textually and artistically, the volume culminates in an unusual prayer, the Marian Ave cuius conceptio. Islip’s unparalleled decision to illustrate the piece with a complete narrative cycle shows his remarkable devotion to this prayer. Yet, Islip may have experienced Ave cuius conceptio most commonly not as a prayer, but as a motet sung in the same chapels that he spent his career renovating. In his highly personal prayerbook, Islip’s illustrated Ave cuius conceptio offers visual and textual cues that build on a mental musical setting for the abbot’s private Marian devotions.
摘要都铎王朝早期威斯敏斯特圣彼得修道院院长约翰·伊斯利普的祈祷书仍保存在曼彻斯特约翰·赖兰德图书馆,MS Latin 165。在文本和艺术上,该卷以一种不同寻常的祈祷达到高潮,即玛丽安大道的概念。伊斯利普无与伦比地决定用一个完整的叙事周期来说明这篇文章,这表明了他对这篇祈祷的非凡奉献。然而,伊斯利普可能经历过Ave cuius的概念,最常见的不是祈祷,而是在他职业生涯中翻修的同一座小教堂里唱的一首歌。在他高度个人化的祈祷书中,Islip的插图Ave cuius概念提供了视觉和文本线索,这些线索建立在修道院院长私人玛丽安祈祷的心理音乐背景之上。

ABSTRACT This article presents important new evidence of the ways in which sermons could be passed down within Protestant clerical families entrenched in the parishes. These sermons were re-delivered to generations of congregants in order to advance the Reformation in early modern England. This paper draws attention to the reuse of sermons even where there were denominational differences within clerical dynasties, raising crucial questions surrounding the strength of family ties and filial piety in the face of complex and changing attitudes towards both Church of England and nonconformist doctrine. Moreover, in questioning the reception of these repurposed sermons, I suggest that sentimental value was a powerful tool which was utilized to convert parochial congregations. This fresh perspective on post-Reformation sermon culture argues that individual sermons could be artifacts of generational memory, representing continuity and lineage within the long English Reformation and beyond.

ABSTRACT This essay examines Archbishop Matthew Parker’s prefaces to the 1568 Bishops’ Bible. It illustrates how these prefaces supported the attempts made by Parker (1504-75) to link the fledgling Elizabethan Church to the Anglo-Saxon Church. Particular attention is given to the use of the Venerable Bede (673/4-735) and King Alfred (848/49-99) as precedents for the existence of vernacular Bibles within the English Church. It is suggested that the prefaces can only be understood properly if they are seen as a part of Parker’s antiquarian project and that, in turn, they develop our understanding of Parker’s antiquarian methods and his construction of new histories for the English Church. Questions are also raised about the motives Parker had for printing some medieval works but not others, namely Bede’s Ecclesiastical History. Ultimately, it is contended that the Bishops’ Bible prefaces are an important, but hitherto overlooked, part of Parker’s corpus of antiquarian works.
