Novel-related news Devil May Care, written by Sebastian Faulks ("writing as Ian Fleming"), has become Penguin Books fastest selling hardcover fiction title. It is the latest installment in the book series about British secret agent James Bond and was released to coincide with the 100th anniversary of late Bond creator Ian Fleming's birthday on May 28, 1908.

I saw your comment (2007) on merging the 42 Articles into the article on the 39 Articles. Do you know of any controversial debate wihtin Anglican church in the 19th century (especially before 1876 in Oxford) where the 42 articles could have been an issue? I think especially of 2 Artickes:

• 27. The Wickedness of the Ministers doth not take away the effectual Operation of God's Ordinance.
  Although in the visible Church the evil be ever mingled with the good, and sometime the evil have chief authority in the ministration of the Word and sacraments: yet forasmuchas they do not have the same in their own name but do minister by Christ's commission, and authority: we may use their ministry both in hearing the Word of God, and in the receiving the sacraments. either is the effect of God's ordinances taken away by their wickedness, nor the grace of God's gifts diminished from such, as by faith, and rightly receive the sacraments ministered unto them, which be effectual because of Christ's institution and promise, although they be ministered by evil men. Nevertheless it appetaineth to the discipline of the Church, that inquiry be made of such (evil ministers), and that they be accused by those that have knowledge of their offences, and finally, being found guilty by just judgement, be disposed.
• 42. All men shall not be saved at the length.
  They also are worthy of condemnation, who endeavour at this time in restore the dangerous opinion that all men, by they never so ungodly, shall at length be saved, when they have suffered pains for their sins a certain time appointed by God's justice.

The background of my strange question is an even stranger assumption: http://thecarrollforum.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=carrollphil&thread=29&page=1#877 Best regards from Munich --DL5MDA (talk) 21:08, 5 March 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thank you for the quick and helpful answer. Lewis Carroll was very interested in F.D.Maurice (http://www.google.com/search?q=Frederick-Denison-Maurice+Lewis-Carroll+Dodgson). Your hint also led me to chapter The Angelican Tradition: From Thomas Cranmer to F.D. Maurice in in Ryan D. Spinks, Reform and modern rituals and theologies of baptism, 2006. As an Anglican priest (re)reading The Hunting of the Snark perhaps could be quite interesting for you: http://www.snrk.de/snarkhunt/. After using one of Henry Holiday's illustrations to the Snark for my work (as a German I didn't know too much about the Snark in 2007) I accidentally run into his puzzles in December 2008. Holiday's illustrations (http://holiday.snrk.de) perhaps can help a bit to interpret Carroll's nonsense poem, where (I think) nonsense served as a means to address controversial issues without getting Carroll/Dodgson into trouble. This may be a crackpot idea, but some of holiday's puzzles are very clear once you understand, how he worked, e.g. http://lc.snrk.de/BankersFate.cgi. Some puzzles are more complex, e.g. http://holiday.snrk.de/Boojum.cgi --DL5MDA (talk) 09:34, 6 March 2010 (UTC)Reply
