Seconde Parte of a Register - Being a Calendar of Manuscripts Under That Title Intended for

Klappentext In 1593, in response to strict censorship in England, English Puritans in Scotland printed a volume of letters, petitions and arguments titled Parte of a Register, which was smuggled into England. Manuscripts for a second book were collected but never published, and were later acquired by Roger Morrice (1628-1702), the Puritan diarist. They are now housed at Dr Williams's Library in London. This is a two-volume study of the 257 documents, which date from 1570 to 1590. They include Puritan letters, petitions, arguments and records of persecution by ecclesiastical authorities, and together constitute valuable evidence of the aims and concerns of the early Puritan movement. Compiled by the ecclesiastical historian Albert Peel (1886-1949) and first published in 1915, this catalogue itemises the contents of the collection. Volume 1 contains an introduction discussing the history of the manuscripts and the first part of the list of documents. Zusammenfassung In 1593 documents for a sequel to the Puritan work Parte of a Register were collected, but never published. Edited by the ecclesiastical historian Albert Peel (1886–1949) this study contains a list of these manuscripts, which provide valuable evidence of the concerns of the early Puritan movement in England.
