The Soul of Doubt
If Martin Luther’s early, post-conversion, exploits marked him out as an idealistic liberator of the human conscience, then his later reform agenda inevitably brought about the kind of pragmatic qualifications that were seen as nothing short of a betrayal of principle by some would-be sympathisers. The ensuing controversy renewed a sense of ‘doubt’ as a function of Christian morality. This book by Dominic Erdozain considers the rise in religious …
Sympathetic Puritans
In English Puritanism, 1603–1689 (1998; rev. ante, cxiv [1999], 984–5) John Spurr suggested that ‘Puritanism might be defined as that which puritans recognized in each other’. This claim has now been fleshed out by Abram Van Engen in his captivating and challenging debut. Grounded in the discipline of English Literature and based upon a 2010 doctoral dissertation from Northwestern University, Van Engen’s account of ‘Calvinist fellow feeling’ bene…
Reformation and the Wickedness of Port Royal, Jamaica, 1655-c.1692
In March 1664, John Tillotson (1630–94) delivered a cautionary sermon against the ‘wickedness’ of practical and speculative ‘atheism’ at St Paul’s Cathedral, London. 1 Along with denouncing the wild ideas and licentious behaviour of unbelievers, Tillotson emphasised the role of testimony in identifying religious truths by drawing upon a topical analogy (at least in the printed version of the sermon): ‘No man can demonstrate to me that there is su…

Accusations of Blasphemy in English Anti-Quaker Polemic, C. 1660–1701
This paper investigates the conviction amongst zealous English Protestants, living between 1660 and 1701, that Quakerism constituted a form of blasphemy. Through an analysis of the accusation of blasphemy in anti-Quaker polemic it develops a cultural history of blasphemy as representation, illuminating a spiritual critique of Quakerism as enthusiastic antitrinitarianism and a sense of blasphemy commensurate with Thomistic theology. In so doing, t…
Anti‐Providentialism as Blasphemy in Late Stuart England
This article develops a cultural history of blasphemy as representation by exploring the nexus between conceptions and perceived manifestations of blasphemy in a theological context. Specifically it uses a case study of “the stage debate”, a controversy about the viability of the theatre in England at the turn of the eighteenth century, to argue that contemporary perceptions of anti‐providentialism informed a sense of practical blasphemy that was…
Vaughan Williams on music
Concert audiences have an enduring affection for the music of Ralph Vaughan Williams; a composer of dance, symphony, opera, song, hymnody, and film music, serious scholarship on his music is currently enjoying a revival. 2008 marks the 50th anniversary of Vaughan Williams passing. This collection brings together a host of lively writings, some for the first time, and many for the first time since their initial publication by one of the most artic…
Heroic Eleg and Triumphal Epilogue
This chapter describes in detail the heroic elegy and the triumphal epilogue. The first section consists of a long melody given to the trombone, accompanied by a persistent syncopated figure on the strings. This melody is further developed by the horns, and the section ends with a long-drawn cadence founded on the last bar of the melody. The chapter also states that the theme of the middle section is given to the violins, divided into four parts,…

Industrial Organization and the Technological Time Trap
Ideological persuasion and technological determinism
The philosophical foundations of liberal ideology
This article sets out to idealize the liberal understanding of a ‘civil society’ after the fashion exploited by the philosophical idealist Michael Oakeshott in his account of the conservative features of what he understood to be a ‘civil association’.1 As a tradition of ideological writing liberalism has no more than the thematic continuity of an evolving doctrine that is subject to the changing historical circumstances of its teaching. However, …
The Domain of Professional Business Ethics
This article attempts to further the discussion of Iain Mangham's (1995) consideration of Alistair MacIntyre's reflections on the moral character of the manager in Vol. 2(2) of this journal. In the same volume, Anthony suggests that, after the denigration of this moral character effected by MacIntyre and his ilk, both professors and practitioners of business management `need new ethics' (Anthony, 1995: 293). Other contributions by Rundles (1995),…
The ideology of technology and the birth of the global economy
The Ideologics of Modern Politics
It is a platitude that a political ideology is an organized set of ethical beliefs that authorize the political commitment of a group of people. This article addresses the question: how is the distinctive ideologic of such an organization of ethical ideas related to the political decisions of adherents? The suggestion made is that the distinctive psychological reaction of a group of people to economic and social change plays an important part in …
