He is an author of the western facade of the monastery church (1722–24). The monkish community was probably the biggest at that time. During Josephines reforms the community was not disbanded, but the numbers of monks were reduced and were further more descending. Following reparations were completed in 19th century and in 30's of 20th century. The monkish community was disbanded because of “Action K” (Illegal brute liquidation of monasteries and male regular orders) in May 1950.

From the age of six, it seems, Niccolò was destined for the monkish life. His first teacher was his uncle, the priest of S. Andrea.Fietta, p. 225 and n. 1. He entered the Order of Preachers in 1254, at the age of fourteen, taking the habit of a novice in his native Treviso.

Sozomen used many other authorities. These include sources relating to Christianity in Persia, monkish histories, the Vita Martini of Sulpicius Severus, the works of Hilarius, logoi of Eustathius of Antioch, the letter of Cyril of Jerusalem to Constantius concerning the miraculous vision of the cross, and Palladius. He also used oral tradition, adding some of the most distinctive value to his work.

On the other hand, I'm very sympathetic to religious emotion. If I'd lived in the Middle Ages, I probably would have been a monk. I would have been a very bad monk because I would have been tormented by lots of non-monkish desires. But I'm very drawn to spirituality, and I'm very drawn to those people who live a truly spiritual life.

In 1969 Shipton wrote that, but for the serendipity of being able to be together at the right time, the course of both their lives would have been profoundly different. Shipton was a very gregarious, sociable person who was attractive to women. According to George Band, "Eric slung his ice axe beside many a memsahib's bed". Tilman was taciturn and monkish and he avoided society, particularly that of women.

They were allotted "a whole week" to record the album, according to Dreja, resulting in a "crammed" albeit eclectic mix of blues, hard rock, monkish chanting ("Turn into Earth", "Ever Since the World Began") and African tribal rhythms ("Hot House of Omagararshid"). Beck's guitar lines were a unifying constant throughout. Roger the Engineer was ranked at number 350 on Rolling Stone magazine's "500 Greatest Albums of All Time".

Thomas Ι (Tommaso I; 1178 – 1 March 1233) was Count of Savoy from 1189 to 1233. He is sometimes numbered "Thomas I" to distinguish him from his son of the same name, who governed Savoy but was not count. Thomas was born in Aiguebelle, the son of Humbert III of Savoy and Beatrice of Viennois. His birth was seen as miraculous; his monkish father had despaired of having a male heir after three wives.

He would give his priests detailed instructions on everything, including clothes, sports (he did not want them in sports) and bicycles. He told the Catholic parents to send their children to Catholic schools only under the threat of excommunication, even as the Vatican pleaded him to keep a softer line. But Fallize also had failures. The Constitution of 1814 had enshrined the ban against "the Jesuit and other monkish orders" for all of Norway.

In the third part (551-837), each faculty (having exchanged monkish, acetic robes for more fashionable and luxurious ones) devotes himself to sin and dances wildly with six followers. In the final part (838-1108), Wisdom returns to chastise the three faculties for falling into temptation. Anima, Will, Mind and Understanding repent, and the devils are chased from the stage. Recognizing that redemption requires more than her remorse, Anima asks for God’s mercy and grace.

He had met her in 1166 and had begun their liaison in 1173, supposedly contemplating divorce from Eleanor. This notorious affair caused a monkish scribe to transcribe Rosamund's name in Latin to "Rosa Immundi", or "Rose of Unchastity". The king had many mistresses, but although he treated earlier liaisons discreetly, he flaunted Rosamund. He may have done so to provoke Eleanor into seeking an annulment, but if so, the queen disappointed him.

The regency was not particularly successful altogether, however. Philip's lack of strength and "monkish virtues" put him at odds with the small state's communes and feudatories. The young king also grew to heartily resent his uncle, who assigned the guardianship over the boy to his favourite Adhémar de Mosset. Upon taking the reins of government into his own hands in 1329, the not-so- pious James III had his former guardian tried for heresy.

Hugh and the Poitevin bishop Isembart then sent letters to Pope John XIX to beg exemption for his monasteries from all authority save that of Nouaillé. Said exemption was granted. At his monastery of Notre-Dame de Lusignan, a monkish chronicler wrote the Conventum inter Guillelmum ducem Aquitaniae et Hugonem Chiliarchum celebrating Hugh's warmaking. According to the Conventum, Hugh died a year after his final agreement with the duke, probably in 1026 or thereabouts.

The Aldbar (or Auldbar) Stone, which dates from the ninth or tenth century, came from the chapel at Aldbar Castle, a sixteenth-century tower house two miles southwest of Brechin. The stone is carved from red sandstone and displays relief carvings on both sides. On the front, an endless cross with the Celtic knotwork design, representing eternity, stands atop a base of two concentric squares. The cross is flanked by two monkish figures, each of whom holds a book.

The authors, John O'Donnell, Toby Creswell and Craig Mathieson, described "Under the Milky Way" as "[The Church's] signature track ... [which] caught them at their peak of guitar-fuelled creativity ... [it is] the elegiac centrepiece of the record ... sounded like an induction, with its soft, monkish keyboard washes and ringing guitar chords, but it never reaches the point of transition where one world gives way to the next ... possibly concerned with drugs, but it transcends any single setting or worldview".

Baluze notes (p. 892) that the Franciscan Luke Wadding reported that Pasteur had tried to refuse the office, and that subsequent writers had followed Wadding. The story partakes of the 'Great Refusal' topos, however, in which a member of the regular clergy is elected to some high office, but refuses out of monkish modesty; this person then goes on to be pope, or cardinal, or some other high official. That was the case with Pasteur, who is immediately found in office.

An oil painting, a portrait, hanging at Kentchurch Court and said to be dated to c.1400 by the National Gallery, is said to depict Siôn Cent. The portrait shows a man in late middle age, wearing monkish robes, holding an open book in his left hand and what is possibly a writing implement in the other. Behind him is a view towards a distant ruined castle on a hill and a fortified house approached via a bridge in the middle distance.

The usurper Constantine III had taken the last Roman troops from Britain in 407 and the civilian administration had been expelled by the natives a little later, leaving the inhabitants to fend for themselves during increasingly fraught times. Parts of the plea were recorded:"The Works of Gildas, Surnamed 'Sapiens,' or the Wise", in: John Allen Giles, ed., Six Old English Chronicles, of Which Two Are Now First Translated from the Monkish Latin Originals (London: Henry G. Bohn, 1848), pt. 1, ¶20.

Despite her austere lifestyle, it did not affect her health; Jerome wrote that "with a sound body and even sounder soul, she found for herself a monkish cell in the midst of a busy Rome".Dunbar, p. 86 Fleury also said about Asella: "Her life was simple and regular, and in the midst of Rome led a life of perfect solitude". Jerome also cited Asella as an example and role model for young women, widows, and virgins, calling her "a flower of the Lord".

The piece itself is haunting in nature, featuring wordless vocals from Bowie that are described by Doggett as reminiscent of a "monkish vocal chorale". Buckley calls it the "most startling" piece on the album. Bowie stated in 1977 that "Art Decade", a pun on "art decayed," is about West Berlin, "a city cut off from its world, art and culture, dying with no hope of retribution." Greatly influenced by Eno's ambient work, the piece gives visual impressions and evokes feelings of melancholy and beauty.

The Kurdish Muslim Saladin retook Hebron in 1187 – again with Jewish assistance according to one late tradition, in exchange for a letter of security allowing them to return to the city and build a synagogue there.. Note to editors. This account, always in Moshe Gil, refers to two distinct events, the Arab conquest from Byzantium, and the Kurdish-Arab conquest from Crusaders. In both the manuscript is a monkish chronicle, and the words used, and event described is identical. We may have a secondary source confusion here.

His hair is not tightly held back as in the Pisanello portrait of his father, but falls over his ears and across his forehead in an almost monkish style. He holds a hammer and a ring in his right hand. Their exact significance is unknown although they are thought by art historians to be allusions to court ritual and society. The hammer is maybe a symbol of his authority as a knightly nobleman, related to his privileges and duties as a prince of his realm, perhaps connected with tournament ritual.

Alex then uses her own powers of telekinesis to force Legion out of Mara and into Miss Pearce before ramming the demon's head through a crucifix. Mara and Alex collapse and, presumably several hours later, Mara awakes and heals herself, but is unable to heal Alex in time. She begins to leave and encounters Virgil (a man in monkish robes, who appears to be a type of groundskeeper and is seen briefly throughout the movie). Elizabeth comes running down the stairs, whole and alive, and greets him as father (cue Mara's exit).

Because Bernard's family had attachments to the monastery of Saint-Evroul-sur-Ouche, the monkish chronicler Orderic Vitalis of that foundation had special knowledge of him and his family, though this still does not reduce the general obscurity of his origins or his life when compared to the richer Marcher lords, like the great Roger of Montgomery.Nelson, 83. Bernard was the son of the minor Norman baron Geoffrey de Neufmarché and Ada de Hugleville, and he was born at the castle of Le-Neuf- Marché-en-Lions on the frontier between Normandy and Beauvais.Nelson, 84.

In 1812, also Edward D. Clarke rejected the traditional location as a "mere delusion, a monkish juggle"Edward Daniel Clarke, Travels in various countries of Europe, Asia and Africa: Part II - Greece, Egypt, and the Holy Land, section I (vol. IV), 4th edition (London 1817), p. 335 and suggested instead that the crucifixion took place just outside Zion Gate. During the 19th century travel from Europe to the Ottoman Empire became easier and therefore more common, especially in the late 1830s due to the reforms of the Egyptian ruler, Muhammad Ali.

According to legends which arose in later years around the St. Martial cycle, that saint, who had been sent by St. Peter to preach, is said to have restored to life at Tulle the son of the Roman governor, Nerva, and to have covered the neighbouring country with churches. The building of churches, however, was not possible until the fourth century. Some legends name St. Martin of Tours as founder of the Abbey of Tulle, others St. Calmin, Count of Auvergne (seventh century).These early monkish foundations are dismissed by Baluze, p. 3-4.

The inside of the Burnhams' home was shot at a house close to Interstate 405 and Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles; the inside of the Fitts' home was shot in the city's Hancock Park neighborhood. Ricky's bedroom was designed to be cell-like to suggest his "monkish" personality, while at the same time blending with the high-tech equipment to reflect his voyeuristic side. The production deliberately minimized the use of red, as it was an important thematic signature elsewhere. The Burnhams' home uses cool blues, while the Fitts' is kept in a "depressed military palette".

The new diocese had expensive gifts at the synod confirmed by documents, in order to place it on a solid foundation. Henry wanted the celebrated monkish rigour and studiousness of the Hildesheim cathedral chapter – Henry himself was educated there – linked together with the churches under his control, including his favourite diocese of Bamberg. The next seven bishops were named by the emperors, after which free canonical election was the rule. Eberhard's immediate successor, Suidger of Morsleben, became pope in 1046 as Clement II. He was the only pope to be interred north of the Alps in the Bamberg Cathedral.

John makes enough noise to attract the attention of the Host, who is happy to greet his monkish friends. The Hostess, very dissatisfied, denies that there is any good cheer to be had in the house. The crafty John pretends to conjure the demon Asteroth to supply a magic meal; he exposes, item by item, the Constable's hidden delectables, which the Host and friars enjoy. Finally, John tells the Host that he will conjure the demon Asteroth in person, in the guise of the local Constable; the Host must not be fooled be this appearance, but must beat the demon soundly.

The "fat comma" forces the word to its left to be interpreted as a string.perldoc.perl.org – perlop – Comma Operator Thus, where this would produce a run-time error under strict (barewords are not allowed): %bad_example = ( bad_bareword, "not so cool" ); the following use of the fat comma would be legal and idiomatic: %good_example = ( converted_to_string => "very monkish" ); This is because the token `converted_to_string` would be converted to the string literal `"converted_to_string"` which is a legal argument in a hash key assignment. The result is easier-to-read code, with a stronger emphasis on the name-value pairing of associative arrays.

Giosia was born in Montreal, Quebec to a family of Italian immigrants and grew up in the borough of St. Leonard, Quebec. Nadia's unique blend of comedy and cooking is a product of her upbringing where family gatherings typically centered around food and laughter. She has no professional training as a chef and is mostly self-taught with recipes developed from family tradition and trial and error. Bucking the traditional "monkish" demeanor of the celebrity chef, Giosia has a decidedly edgy look replete with tattoos and at least one pair of leather pants with a zip-out crotch.

Croker was contemptuous of Irish annals such as the Annals of the Four Masters, and manuscripts such as the Book of Ballymote which contained narratives and poetry, calling them "the monkish chronicles" or "relics", and stating in a cavalier manner that Irish history would not suffer at all at "the total loss of the legendary records of an age of ignorance and superstition"., citing Researches in the South of Ireland: chap. xviii, P. 334 He claimed to be capable of reading Irish manuscripts, but it is doubtful whether he had any real proficiency in the Irish language.

A page from the Pepys Manuscript, showing its notable lack of embellishment The Pepys Manuscript is a late fifteenth-century English choirbook, in the library of Magdalene College, Cambridge, MS Pepys 1236. Along with the Ritson Manuscript it is much less elaborate than the Eton, Lambeth and Caius Choirbooks; it contains shorter and simpler pieces which appear to have been written for smaller and less able choirs. The book received its name because it was part of the collection owned by Samuel Pepys. He described it as containing "monkish music of Edward IV's time, " but it appears on internal evidence to have been begun a year or two earlier.

Equestrian seal of Louis VII Following the death of Duke William X of Aquitaine, Louis VI moved quickly to have his son married to Eleanor of Aquitaine, who had inherited William's territory, on 25 July 1137. In this way, Louis VI sought to add the large, sprawling territory of the duchy of Aquitaine to his family's holdings in France. On 1 August 1137, shortly after the marriage, Louis VI died, and Louis VII became king. The pairing of the monkish Louis and the high-spirited Eleanor was doomed to failure; she reportedly once declared that she had thought to marry a king, only to find she had married a monk.

The novel is a dark and disorienting tale of the self-destructive character of totalitarian thinking. A writer for the Spectator described it as: "Appalling, magnificent ... [It] screams and bellows of evil, out of which a supremely mad, unfaceable book is orchestrated ... of which we dare not deny the genius."Canetti, Elias, "Auto-da-Fé", trans. C. V. Wedgewood, Continuum, 1981, New York, NY, fourth cover The protagonist is Herr Doktor Peter Kien, a famed and famously reclusive forty-year-old philologist and Sinologist who is uninterested in human interaction or sex, content with his monkish, highly disciplined life in his book-lined apartment in Vienna.

They formed in turn a new province attached to Toulouse and therefore became Carolingian vassals. A widely circulated monkish account of 1078 from the Abbey of Santa María de Alaón contains the earliest foundation myth of any of the counties of the Hispanic March. Written at a time when the independence of Pallars and Ribagorza was threatened by the hegemony recently created by the personal union of the Kingdom of Navarre and Kingdom of Aragon (1076). It records that Count Bernard and Bishop Ato, both of Ribagorza and descended by tradition from Charlemagne, spearheaded the conquest and repopulation of Sobrarbe and Pallars respectively and that the bishop held ecclesiastical rule over all three counties.

Their 'shared journey of discovery' had become, by Milton's time, an academic exercise so divorced from the practical realities of life as to render medieval education repulsive to Renaissance humanists in general, and to Milton in particular, for whom "the scholastic grossness of barbarous ages" did little more than immerse students in "unquiet deeps of controversy", leaving them with "ragged notions and babblements" and "such things chiefly as were better unlearned" (Milton 54; hereafter cited by page number alone). Milton dismissed the medieval curriculum which produced such scholars as the "scragged and thorny lectures of monkish and miserable sophistry" (Lewalski 208), and sought to liberate it from the scholastic yoke from which he believed it desperately needed rescuing.

Diriks is credited with formulating §100, concerning freedom of speech, and §102, guarding against unreasonable searches and seizures. The constitution shows a curious mix of radical and traditional values. The principle of separation of powers between the executive, legislative and judicial branches was directly inspired by radical ideas from the US and French systems. The retention of a king, a constitutional church, defined as Evangelical-Lutheran, and the banning of Jesuits, monkish orders, and Jews, which latter were not allowed to travel to Norway, in the face of Republicanism was a traditionalist move; however, the king's power was severely curtailed, and the church very much under the control of the elected body.

Brinton in his review of an exposition in America in 1909, he states that: > It is this racy and picturesque life which Zuloaga seeks above all else to > place on record, and it is these popular types unspoiled by ruthless > modernism which he pursues into the farthest corners of his native land. In > this zealous quest of congenial models he hesitates at nothing.

The tract contains a second title-page and pagination, which is the Declaration and Confession published by the impostor under the name of Joseph ben Israel. The Baptist minister of Hexham, Thomas Tillam, supposed himself unfairly treated in this pamphlet, and replied to it by‘Banners of Love displayed …; or an Answer to a Narrative stuffed with Untruths, by four Newcastle Gentlemen. Hammond also helped to write a tract attacking the Quakers, entitled The Perfect Pharise, under Monkish Holines, opposing the Fundamental Principles of the Doctrine of the Gospel, … manifesting himself in the Generation of men called Quakers. Hammond's name comes third among five Newcastle ministers who sign this tract. An introductory epistle ‘to the Reader’ by Hammond appears in a book called God's Judgements upon Drunkards, Swearers, and Sabbath-Breakers.

The painting can be approximately dated to from the late 1450s to early 1460s by de Croÿ's haircut, which is long at the front and above the ears but shaved at the side and below the ears. He wears a clipped and straight length fringe; a monkish fashion popular amongst male Burgundian nobles during this period. The high cut below the ear is similar to that seen worn by Nicolas Rolin in Jan van Eyck's c 1935 Madonna of Chancellor Rolin, however de Croÿ's side cut is not as severe or pronounced, and is accompanied by a longer fringe too daring for even a few years earlier. This is assuming that the sitter is Burgundian and not a foreign visitor; the identifying crest on the outer wings as well as his pointed Northern European facial features argue against this possibility.

However, music critic Dave Thompson has said, regarding Splodgenessabounds' 1981 album: Other punk pathetique bands included Television Personalities, Half Man Half Biscuit, the Shapes, the Gonads, the Adicts, Notsensibles, the Postmen, Desert Island Joe, the Hoopers, Pierre the Poet (Garry Butterfield), Paul Devine, Lord Waistrel & the Cosh Boys, Stephen Louis Knoche Jr & His Raging Cronies, the Alaska Cowboys, Percy Throwers Man Eating Plans, SexyCows, and the Orgasm Guerrillas. Later, the mantle was inherited by the Bus Station Loonies, Monkish and Macc Lads, who performed comic punk singalongs in very much the same style. Toy Dolls, Peter and the Test Tube Babies, the Gonads, and Splodgenessabounds continue to tour and record. In Germany, the similar Fun-Punk genre emerged in the mid-1980s as a response to hardcore punk, which at that time was marked by political correctness and negative imagery.

Scotland, iii. 1670 ie document 1670 (p 308) in The Lanercost Chronicle says instead that Selby accepted that he was to die; the favour he asked of David was to be given a weapon that he might die by combat as befitted a knight; not only did David refuse him this but he had him executed unshriven, that is, without opportunity to confess his sins to a priest."with an aggravated vindictiveness unworthy of chivalry" says Neilson; if the Lanercost Chronicle is to be believed (the whole tale is not one of the standard monkish inventions) Selby as good as told David his conduct was unworthy of a king (which may have provoked him to conduct unworthy of a Christian) The castle was never rebuilt. When Thomas Wake died in June 1349, the manor of Liddel was valued at £70 16s. 2d.

Castelmonte (UD) On the morning of November 29, 1738 the nonzolo the Shrine of Our Lady of Castelmonte, complained that he had found that morning opened the doors of the sanctuary and has verified the theft of sacred objects. The track for the identification of the thief was already the next day, when it appeared in the chapter of Cividale Paravano George, dean of the village of Codromaz, carrying a piece of candlestick and black skirt with a button thread color "monkish". Veliscigh Michele, one of the two boys, had reported that the button that seemed to come from the habit of the cleric Martin, his brother, who was living at the sanctuary. Fled from the castle, in the Veneto region, the two thieves were so direct in imperial territory, surpassing with end in the valley of Idrija, where they stayed for some time, and they headed the investigation, the chapter entrusted to the archdeacon Tolmin.

The school was expressly exempted by the Act of Uniformity to allow it to continue saying Latin prayers despite the Reformation. Every Wednesday there is an assembly Up School known as Latin Prayers, which opens with the Head Master leading all members of the school in chanting prayers in Latin, followed by notices in English. The school's unique pronunciation of formal Latin is known as 'Westminster Latin', and descends from medieval English scholastic pronunciation: Queen Elizabeth I, who spoke fluent Latin, commanded that Latin was not to be said "in the monkish fashion", a significant warning upon loyalties between Church and State. The School commemorates its benefactors every year with a service in Westminster Abbey in Latin in which the Captain of the Queen's Scholars lays a wreath of pink roses on the tomb of Elizabeth I: the service alternates between 'Little Commem' which is held in Henry VII's Chapel and involves just the Queen's Scholars and the much larger 'Big Commem' to which the whole school community is invited.

Above and beyond these accomplishments Fredericks’s greatest achievement is his Journal, a personal diary that is unprecedented in its length, continuity, detail, and candor. The Journal of Claude Fredericks, begun in 1932 when he was eight years old, and written by him over the course of more than eighty years, up until a week before his death, is a document of some 65,000 pages in length, one of the longest personal narratives in the language. In his 2015 biography of the poet James Merrill (James Merrill: Life and Art, Knopf, 2015) Langdon Hammer at Yale, one of the trustees of The Claude Fredericks Foundation, writes: “...Over time The Journal would become a unique archival record and a massive literary work in its own right––a project of self- knowledge tirelessly pursued. It was purchased by the Getty Research Institute (at The Getty Center in Los Angeles) in 1988, at which point it consisted of more than 30 million words.” In a prospectus printed by The Stinehour Press in 1997, Fredericks described The Journal in this way: > It is a book that is peopled with literally thousands of people but > documents a life often passed in monkish solitude.
