Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Monastic Life in the Middle Ages: With a Note on Great Britain and the Holy See 1792-1806
HE Essays contained in this small volume were printed in various periodicals many years ago. From time to time I am asked by friends and fellow students where they could be obtained, but I have been unable to satisfy their requests to have copies. I have consequently been advised to collect these fugitive papers in another volume of Miscellaneous Essays, in the hope that they may be found useful and of interest to others besides those who have asked to have them. The first of these papers, Abbot Wallingford, was printed separately a few years ago, but as it has been for some time out of print I have included it in the volume. The last, Great Britain and the Holy See, 1792 has, I fear, no connexion with Monastic Life in the Middle Ages, under which title these essays are grouped, and which it must be confessed only in a rough and general way represents the Contents Of the volume. But this paper, having been printed abroad, has so far been little known in England, and so it seemed useful to include it.
