Three case studies clarify this relationship between intellectual standards and practical moral duty. The first shows that the Victorians adapted a universal conception of sainthood to the responsibilities specific to class, gender, social rank, and vocation. The second illustrates how these ideals of self-discipline achieved their form and cultural vigor by analyzing the eighteenth-century moral philosophy of Joseph Butler, John Wesley, Samuel Johnson, and William Paley. The final reinterprets conflict between the liberal Anglican Noetics and the conservative Oxford Movement as a clash over the means of developing habits of self-denial.History of science and medicine library.Scientific and learned cultures and their institutions ;Volume 14.Self-denialSocial aspectsGreat BritainHistoryVirtueSocial aspectsGreat BritainHistoryPatienceSocial aspectsGreat BritainHistoryHumilitySocial aspectsGreat BritainHistoryEthicsGreat BritainHistoryOxford movementHistoryGreat BritainIntellectual life18th centuryGreat BritainIntellectual life19th centuryGreat BritainMoral conditionsElectronic books.Self-denialSocial aspectsHistory.VirtueSocial aspectsHistory.PatienceSocial aspectsHistory.HumilitySocial aspectsHistory.EthicsHistory.Oxford movementHistory.941.07Bellon Richard(Historian),235530MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910463626003321A sincere and teachable heart2049546UNINA00984nam a2200265 i 450099100437083830753620250305112809.0250305s1954 -uk er 001 0 lat dBibl.
