What's New This Week

ALL THE NEW URLS we receive each week are here. We list two (sometimes three) weeks' worth, cycling the old ones off each week. As they disappear from this page, you'll find the links moved to their natural home categories in our resource pages.

If you can't find something that was once here, you can look in our archives or try the AO search engine. It searches our entire site, and it can also search all of the sites that we link to.

Worth Noting
The Church in an Age of Danger: Parsons and Parishioners, 1660-1740: A review in the Church Times of the new book by Donald A. Spaeth. 'A quick glance at the title of this new study might lead one to think the book is yet another lament about the Anglican Church’s descent down the plug-hole of liberalism. However, it is a fascinating and scholarly look at parochial life in what—current prophets of doom, please note—is the Church of England’s most unfashionable and least admired period'.

French cathedrals exhibit their treasures: Marcus Binney writes in The Times about the 'sumptuous exhibition in Rheims, 20 Siècles en Cathédrales'.
