I am a writer (mainly on industrial subjects in recent years) now winding
down towards retirement in six or seven years time. This gives me an
opportunity to study subjects which have interested me for years, thanks
to the Internet (in my wildest dreams I couldn't, when younger and haunting
local authority libraries, visualise anything so comprehensive and
immediate!). I may yet take a University course if my meagre, 1950s,
educational qualifications permit.
I am interested in the liturgy and choral music of Tudor/Stuart times, but
of course this only becomes fully relevant given a broader knowledge of
ecclesiastical history before (and probably) after these periods.
I am also becoming interested in the evolution of the Anglican church in
the Victorian period, and would appreciate information on any list covering
this subject (I have been a member of the Victoria list for some years;
this is general.)
Initially I hope to learn from this list; if, as a curious novice, I can
contribute, I will be delighted.
