"John Cosin (1595-1672) was a leading cleric in seventeenth-century England who rode the changing tides of preference under James I and Charles I, exile during the Interregnum, becoming Bishop of Durham at the Restoration. Inspired by the architecture of Dr. Caius at his undergraduate college in Cambridge, Cosin was encouraged to value the architecture of the English Church by his patron Richard Neile. Under Bishop Neile, Cosin became a prebend of Durham Cathedral and Rector of Brancepeth in the Bishopric of Durham during the 1620s, as well as Master of Peterhouse and Vice Chancellor at Cambridge University during the 1630s. Cosin spent the years 1643 to 1659 in exile in Paris before returning to become Bishop of Durham in 1660 till his death in 1672. Cosin was actively involved in church architecture, fulfilling the "beauty of holiness" agenda of the English Arminian clergy, from the 1620s through to the 1670s."--

Explores the impact of legal ideas and legal consciousness on early modern English society and culture.
This case study of two rural parishes in County Durham, England, provides an alternate view on the economic development involved in the transition from medieval to modern, partly explaining England's rise to global economic dominance in the seventeenth century. Coal mining did not come to these parishes until the nineteenth century; these are an example of agrarian expansion. Low population, favourable seigniorial administration, and a commercialised society saw the emergence of large farms on the bishopric of Durham soon after the Black Death; these secure copyhold and leasehold tenures were among the earliest known in England. Individualism developed within a strong parish and village comm...
The story of Cory, a young woman trying to find her place in her world. In doing so, she meets various supernatural beings, and finds that her place is not necessarily where she thought it was, and home is where you make it.
From super spy to farm girl - join Jessica McCauley as her past and present violently collide, threatening to devastate her life for a second time.
Socialist and republican Frank Ryan is best remembered for his leadership of Irishmen in the Spanish Civil War and his collusion with Nazi Germany against Britain. But his earlier life is equally revealing of the man and his times. This is a biography of his life from his birth in 1902 to his death in 1944.
Humans have the option of separation, divorce, and heartbreak-for Corinne Carol-Anne Kirkpatrick, sorceress and queen of the vampires, the choices are limited to love or death. Now that she is back at Green's hill and assuming her duties as leader, her life is, at best, complicated. Bracken and Nicky are rivalling for her affections, Green is gone taking care of his people, and a new supernatural enemy is threatening the sanctity of all she has come to love. Throw in a family reunion gone bad, a supernatural psychiatrist and a killer physics class, and Cory's life isn't just complex, it's psychotic. Cory needs to get her act and her identity together, and soon, because the enemy she and her lovers are facing is a nightmare that doesn't just kill people, it unmakes them. If she doesn't figure out who she is and what her place is on Green's hill, it's not just her life on the line. She knows from hard experience that the only thing worse than facing death is facing the death of someone she loves. Because loving people is easy-living with them is what takes the real work, and it's even harder if you're BOUND.
Green: "If someone gives their life for you, it is because they can not bear to live in a world without you. This is a great gift and a terrible burden, and if you are going to live, you need to be grateful for the gift and prepared to bear the burden." Cory: "I do fearsome things, when I'm touching people who love me..." Cory fled the foothills to deal with the pain of losing Adrian, and Green watched her go. Separately, they could easily grieve themselves to death, but when an enemy brings them together, they find out what a great and terrible force love can be.
