A proper dyaloge betwene a Gentilman and a Husbandman eche complaynynge to other their miserable calamite through the ambicion of the clergye was printed in two versions by Hans Luft i.e., Johannes Hoochstraten of Antwerp in 1529. This book appears in Robert Steele s list of books banned in Henry s reign Steele refers to it as Dialogue between gentleman & plowman. While clearly in the Piers Plowman Tradition , Piers does not appear as a character. The first version has a 684 line acrostic poem opening and dialogue that was written in the sixteenth century invention. Following this, there is an authentic, late fourteenth century Lollard anti clerical text, written ca. 1375 85. It is included in Matthew, ed. The English Works of Wyclif . To all this, the second version adds another prose tract probably from the late fifteenth century, which argues in favor of vernacular Bible translations. The dialogue begins with the gentleman lamenting how his class has fallen low and is unable to help the poor, because long ago they were fooled into giving their lands and wealth to the church. The husbandman then argues for confiscating the possessions of a corrupt clergy which preys upon the poor. Belief in purgatory and indulgences is singled out as the favorite swindle of the clergy, who are ultimately to blame for rising rents. The husbandman suggests taking the issue to parliament the 1529 Reformation Parliament , but the gentleman demurs, alluding to Simon Fish s A Supplicacyon for the Beggers and Thomas More s rebuttal and defense of purgatory in The Supplycacyon of Soulys 1529 .

Orphan date October 2008 Haloa or Alo was an Attic festival, but celebrated principally at Eleusis , in honour of Demeter and Dionysus, the inventors of the plough and protectors of the fruits of the earth. It took place every year, during the month Attic calendar Poseideon , after the harvest was over, and only fruits were offered on this occasion, partly as a grateful acknowledgment for the benefits the husbandman had received, and partly that the next harvest might be plentiful. We learn from Demosthenes c. Neaer. p. 1385 , that it was unlawful to offer any bloody sacrifice on the day of this festival, and that the priests alone had the privilege to offer the fruits. The festival was also called Thalysia or Syncomesteria.

Wikify date July 2011 general improvements needed plsu links Anthony Fothergill 1685? 1761 , was an English theological writer. Fothergill was the youngest son of Thomas Fothergill of Brownber, Ravenstonedale, Westmoreland. Like his forefathers and descendants for many generations he owned Brownber, and lived and died there. Though he is said to have had no liberal education, he published several theological works, the largest of which is entitled Wicked Christians Practical Atheists or Free Thoughts of a Plain Man on the Doctrines and Duties of Religion in general, and of Christianity in particular compared and contrasted with the Faith and Practice of Protestants of every Denomination so far as either have come under the observation or to the knowledge of the Author By Anthony Fothergill, a husbandman in the county of Westmoreland, 8vo, 1754. The description husbandman is no doubt an attempt at a translation of the Lake country statesman. This work was followed by two pamphlets A Modest Inquiry how far the Thirty nine Articles of the Church of England and the Creed ascribed to St. Athanasius are consistent with and supported by one another and how far they are also consistent with the Declarations of Jesus Christ and the Doctrines of His Apostles, 1755 and The Fall of Man an Enquiry into the Nature of that Event and how far the Posterity of Adam are involved in the guilt of his Transgression, addressed to all, but particularly preachers who embrace the doctrine of original sin, 1756. It is stated that he also wrote some things in verse, and contributed to the Monthly Review. He seems to have acted as the parish lawyer. The parishioners put up in Ravenstonedale church a brass plate to his memory, bearing an inscription, which concludes his integrity of heart, social disposition, and uncommon abilities gained him general esteem. He departed this his chequered life, June 13, 1761, aged 75. References reflist DNB wstitle Fothergill, Anthony 1685? 1761 Persondata Metad ... more details
