George Richardson Lecture: ‘Idiot’—Questions around Early Quaker Identity in Light of a Legal Dispute
Might cognitive impairment, being an ‘idiot’, disqualify you from ‘belonging’ as a Quaker, in an age before membership? What was idiocy in seventeenth-century terms and, as the Age of Reason dawned, where would the idiot have stood among Friends? These and other questions come to mind from study of a case in the Court of Chancery in the early 1680s. It concerned land and property in Glamorgan and the son of a notable dissenter. The case brings in…
‘Mildred Said she’d do it’: A Quaker Child Psychiatrist and Autism Pioneer
The life of Dr Mildred Creak spanned almost the whole of the twentieth century (1898–1993) and enormous changes in the understanding of mental disorders and of how children’s wellbeing might be ensured. She made her mark as a psychiatrist despite prevailing prejudices against her sex and she was significant both in establishing the discipline of child psychiatry and for the early history of autism diagnosis. Her life and work intersected with gre…
Montanism
The term “Montanism” derives from the name of its founder Montanus and describes a Christian movement of prophesying and reform which began in second century ce Roman Phrygia. Its earliest Catholic critics called it pseudo‐prophecy, and one anonymous source said that Montanus was a recent convert to Christianity (Eusebius Hist. eccl . 5.16.7) ( see Eusebius of Caesarea). It goes beyond the evidence to suggest it owed much to Phrygian paganism, th…

Asia Minor and Achaea
Asia Minor and Achaea were nurseries for Christianity, as the New Testament shows. Asia Minor is important for understanding the development and diversification of the Christians religion. Civic rivalry and civil unrest played their parts in the 'webs of power' which bound the rulers and the ruled. Cities might be melting-pots of Greeks and Anatolians, Romans and Jews. Well-established Jewish communities might be strongly ambivalent in response t…
I Have Heard from Some Teachers’: The Second-Century Struggle for Forgiveness and Reconciliation
In the close-knit valleys communities of South Wales where I was brought up, some fingers are still pointed at ‘the scab’, the miner who, for whatever reason, did not show solidarity in the strike of 1984-5, cement the definition between ‘them’ and ‘us’. In trouble-torn Palestine of the twenty-first century, or among the paramilitary groups of Northern Ireland today, suspected informers are summarily assassinated. In South Africa, the Truth and R…

Fingers up Noses and Pricking with Needles: Possible Reminiscences of Revelation in Later Montanism
Les Tascodrougitae sont mentionnes par Epiphane de Salamine au IV e siecle. Ils sont associes aux cataphrygiens qui sont en fait des montanistes. On accuse les montanistes de marquer les nourrissons au moyen d'aiguilles. Une telle pratique permet sans doute de distinguer un groupe de fideles.

The women around James Nayler, Quaker: A matter of emphasis
This study concerns the events and people associated with an incident involving Quakers in Bristol on October 24th 1656. What happened was presented as a great scandal and helped to precipitate change in Quakerism. It notes in particular (i) how popular presentations of the events are often simplistic and misleading, not least in their concentration on the role of women in what happened and (ii) that there has been a lack of scholarly concern to …

Apocalypse, Ignatius, Montanism: Seeking the Seeds
Montanism (a later appellation) or the New Prophecy (Eusebius HE v. 16, 4; v. 18, 2) was the flowering of tendencies already present. The New Prophets' teachings would have engendered less interest were there not already in Asia an atmosphere conducive to their acceptance. In this study I propose to draw attention to Asian Christian beliefs and practices which offered fertile ground for Montanism and in particular to consider the region of Philad…

Prophecy and Anti-Episcopal Activity: A Third Error Combatted by Ignatius
Discussion of the errors combatted by Ignatius of Antioch of centred on the question of whether they were one or two in number. While some scholars have discovered opposition to a single, composite Judaeo-Christian-Docetic error, others have argued that Ignatius opposed two groups, viz. Docetists and Judaisers. Here I intend to discuss a third error which appears to be connected with the continuing tension, observable in other writings of the tim…
