2565524 February 1836. A document of some historical significance. The context of is described in Chalmers' entry in the Oxford DNB: 'In 1835 the whig government of Viscount Melbourne appointed a royal commission of inquiry to investigate church accommodation in Scotland but the commission moved slowly about its work and angered Chalmers and the church extensionists by what they perceived as stalling methods and a bias towards the dissenters.' Lister's entry explains his involvement stating that on 19 July 1835 'he was one of those commissioned to investigate the opportunities for religious worship and the means of religious instruction in Scotland.' From the papers of Lister's wife the future Lady Theresa Lewis 1803-1865. 4pp 12mo. Forty-five lines. On bifolium. In good condition lightly aged. Folded for postage. Signed ‘Thos Chalmers. / With Dr Chalmers most respectful acknowledgments to Mr Lister.’ Dated in pencil by Lister ‘Feb 24. 1836.’ Chalmers dives straight in without a salutation: ‘1. It is most desired that an interim report on the Statistics of those localities for which New Churches are now in preparation and their claims to an endowment - should be completed as soon as possible.’ In the second point Chalmers states ‘That an endowment should in every instance be accompanied by the enactment of a low rent rent and a district be assigned to the place of worship with a preference to its sittings in favour of the people who reside in that district.’ The third and last point covers two pages of close text. It goes into greater detail about ‘a low-rent rent and a territorial district’ with respect to ‘dissenting ministers’ ‘established church’ ‘Legislature’ and ‘meeting-houses’.

A9783111657837Hardback. New. <p> Welche Bedeutung hat die Gliederung der Geschichte in Epochen für die historische Forschung und welche Differenzierungen können als plausibel gelten Die Beiträge des Bandes gehen davon aus dass Epocheneinteilungen – oder ihr Fehlen – die Perspektive auf die Quellen und ihre Interpretation maßgeblich beeinflussen können. Die Basis für diese Argumentation bieten die in den Beiträgen diskutierten Definitionen und Kriterien für Epocheneinteilungen. Bei aller Unterschiedlichkeit votieren die Texte für die „Vormoderne" als Epochenbezeichnung für den Zeitraum vor 1800 und relativieren damit die übliche Differenzierung zwischen Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit. Beteiligt sind Kolleginnen mit Forschungsschwerpunkten in Antike Mittelalter und Früher Neuzeit. Drei Kolleginnen mit Expertise im 19. und 20. Jahrhundert haben die Beiträge kommentiert und aus ihrer Perspektive eingeordnet. Der Band verdankt sich einer Vortragsreihe in der Bielefelder Kolleginnen sich anlässlich der Einrichtung des Profilbereichs ‚Vormoderne‘ an der Universität Bielefeld zu dem Konzept Stellung bezogen. Im Ergebnis zeigen die Beiträge dass ein differenziertes Bild der Gesellschaft der Gegenwart ganz wesentlich in ihrer Bezogenheit zur Vormoderne gewinnen lässt. </p> hardcover
