  Stuart Holroyd: The Elements of Gnosticism
Stuart Holroyd's *Elements of Gnosticism* is a book that sets out to present the teachings of the ancient gnostics and to trace the legacy of their beliefs over the centuries.
Holroyd's attempts to demostrate the centrality of gnosticism as a sort of underground driving force in Western literature are wrongly conceived.
For example, if we are to believe Holroyd's frequent hints, there was something inherent in classical gnostic systems that would have precluded their followers from ever seeking and abusing temporal power the way the orthodox churches did.

 "Basil Street Blues: A Memoir" by Michael Holroyd - Salon   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
M ichael Holroyd's massive four-volume biography of Bernard Shaw was published between 1988 and 1992; following his equally distinguished lives of Lytton Strachey and the painter Augustus John, it confirmed his reputation as the consummate British biographer, seamlessly weaving narrative from the utterances of his subjects.
Holroyd calls "Basil Street Blues" a "vicarious autobiography." Starting with his parents and tracing his family back into the 19th century, he tries to explain who he is by turning the biographer's art on his own people.
Despite the abundance of oddities in the Holroyd attic, though, what should be an elegant exercise -- part memoir, part "behind the scenes with the biographer" -- fails to transcend the glittering bits of the past that Holroyd has collected.

 Amazon.com: Basil Street Blues: Books: Michael Holroyd   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Affectionate and wry, Holroyd's memoir of his dysfunctional family contrasts sharply with his lives of Lytton Strachey, Augustus John and Bernard Shaw, which have earned him a major reputation as a biographer.

This portrait of Benjamin Holroyd has been provided by Bob Holroyd, of Wisconsin, a descendant of Benjamin's son, William.
If we assume he was between twenty and thirty years old when he was married in 1773, then he would have been born between 1743 and 1753 and the portrait would have been painted between 1812 and 1822 when he was 69 years old.
No further record of Benjamin's daughter, Sarah, has been found, but his sons, William and John, were both married, at Leeds, on the same day in 1802.
