Aubin is m e centre of important coal-mines worked in the middle ages, St d also has iron-mines, the product of which supplies iron works th )se to the town. Sheep-breeding is important in the vicinity. cc fe church dates from the 12th century. in AUBREY, JOHN (1626—1697), English antiquary, was born at lvi aston Pierse or Percy, near Malmesbury, Wiltshire, on the 12th ry from him. He took no active share in the political troubles e left the task of verification largely to Wood. As a hanger-on N great houses he had little time for systematic work, and he rote the “ Lives “ in the early morning while his hosts were 5~i leping off the effects of the dissipation of the night before. F e constantly leaves blanks for dates and facts, and many ai ieries. He made no attempt at a fair copy, and, when fresh in- in rmation occurred to him, inserted it at random. He made some a-I stinction between hearsay and authentic information, but had w pretence to accuracy, his retentive memory being the chief sli ithority. The principal charm of his “Minutes” lies in the to nusing details he has to recount about his personages, and in Sc e plainness and truthfulness that he permits himself in face of flu tablished reputations. In 1592 he complained bitterly that hc ‘ood had destroyed forty pages of his MS., probably because of A Le dangerous freedom of Aubrey’s pen. Wood Was prosecuted Wi ‘entually for insinuations against the judicial integrity of the Sc rl of Clarendon. One of the two statements called in question ar as certainly founded, on information provided by Aubrey. ar his perhaps explains the estrangement between the two anti- ed iaries and the ungrateful account that Wood gives of the elder TI an’s character. “ He was a shiftless person, roving and fri agotie-headed, and sometimes little better than crased. And gc ing exceedingly credulous, would stuff his many letters sent

    Extractions: Merry we meet. Merry we meet. Merry we meet. Merry we meet. Controverscial.Com Welcome Stonehenge A Mystical Temple? Written and compiled by George Knowles. Me at Stonehenge with a girlfriend (circa - 1975) Stonehenge is one of the most famous megalithic monuments in the world and may once have been an observatory for predicting important astronomical events. But what is not clear is who built it, when, why and how? What was the extent of the architect's knowledge and was it designed as a center for religious ritual? These are just some of the questions raised about Stonehenge and here I shall attempt to find some answers. Stonehenge is a strange and powerful magnet, attracting people of all kinds, from all across the world to view and sense the mystical and magical aura of its huge and ancient stones. Many people of all faiths and religious denomination now make it an annual pilgrimage, particularly during the summer solstice. Yet the original purpose of Stonehenge is still an enigma, one that even the best brains in the world have failed to unravel. Lord Byron in his poem 'Don Juan' echoed one of the questions many have sought to answer: “The Druid's groves are gone - so much the better.

    Extractions: Among the ancients, biography was not specifically cultivated until comparatively later times. The lost “Lives” of Critias were probably political pamphlets. We meet first with deliberate biography in Xenophon’s memoirs of Socrates, a work of epochmaking value. Towards the close of the 1st century, Plutarch wrote one of the most fascinating books in the world’s literature, his Parallel Lives of 46 Greeks and Romans. In later Greek, the Life of Apollonius of Tyana was written by Philostratus, who also produced a Lives of the Sophists. In the 3rd century, Diogenes Laertius compiled a Lives of the Philosophers, which is of greater interest than a Lives of the Sophists composed a hundred years later by Eunapius. Finally in the 10th century, Suidas added a biographical section to his celebrated Lexicon. In Latin literature, the earliest biography we meet with is the fragment of the Illustrious Men of Cornelius Nepos. Memoirs began to be largely written at the close of the Augustan age, but these, like the Life of Alexander the Great, by Q. Curtius Rufus, were rather historical than biographical. Tacitus composed a life of his father-in-law, Agricola; this is a work of the most elegant and stately beauty. Suetonius was the author of several biographical compilations, of which the Lives of the Twelve Caesars is the best-known; this was produced in the year I 20. Marius Maximus, in the 4th century, continued the series of emperors down to Heliogabalus. but his work has not been preserved. The Augustan History, finished under Constantine, takes its place, and was concluded and edited by Flavius Vopiscus.
