  • John Ogilvie: the Smoke and Mirrors of Confessional Politics
    journal of jesuit studies 7 (2020) 34-46 brill.com/jjs John Ogilvie: The Smoke and Mirrors of Confessional Politics Allan I. Macinnes University of Strathclyde [email protected] Abstract The trial and execution of the Jesuit John Ogilvie in 1615 is located within diverse political contexts—Reformation and Counter-Reformation; British state formation; and the contested control of the Scottish Kirk between episcopacy and Presbyterian- ism. The endeavors of James vi and i to promote his ius imperium by land and sea did not convert the union of the crowns into a parliamentary union. However, he pressed ahead with British policies to civilize frontiers, colonize overseas and engage in war and diplomacy. Integral to his desire not to be beholden to any foreign power was his promotion of religious uniformity which resulted in a Presbyterian backlash against episcopacy. At the same time, the Scottish bishops sought to present a united Protes- tant front by implementing penal laws against Roman Catholic priests and laity, which led to Ogilvie being charged with treason for upholding the spiritual supremacy of the papacy over King James. Ogilvie’s martyrdom may stand in isolation, but it served to reinvigorate the Catholic mission to Scotland. Keywords British state formation – ius imperium – penal laws – recusancy – Presbyterians – episcopacy – lingering Catholicism – treason 1 Introduction Constant harassment by the Protestant Kirk in the wake of the Reformation, reinforced by threats of civil sanctions against regular clergy, practicing Ro- man Catholics and those who aided them, certainly restricted the scope for © Allan I.

  • The Enthronement of the 56Th Bishop of Bristol
    The Enthronement of THE RIGHT REV EREND VIVIENNE FAULL th The 56 Bishop of Bristol in her Cathedral Church of the Holy and Undivided Trinity, Bristol THE SERVICE AT WHICH THE NEW BISHOP IS WELCOMED INTO THE DIOCESE Saturday 20 October, 2018, 2.30pm THE DEAN’S WELCOME Welcome to your Cathedral Church. The first Bishop of Bristol, Paul Bush, was consecrated on 25 June 1542 and came to a monastery that had been deserted for two years, newly made a Cathedral. The demands of city and diocese were too much for a reclusive scholar and he quickly withdrew to his manor at Abbots Leigh. At her consecration, Bishop Viv was reminded that bishops lead us, knowing their people and being known by them. Before this service began she was met in the heart of the city by its people. In this service you will hear again and again +Viv’s resolution to be servant of diocese and city and to be with us. Successive bishops have been great friends and supporters of their Cathedral Church. Robert Wright raised huge sums for repairs and a new organ in 1630. At other times, the relationship between bishop and Cathedral has been more difficult. In the eighteenth century Bishop Newton despaired of his absent dean. Today, we rejoice in the fact that the Cathedral is the Bishop’s Church. When +Viv knocks, three times, at the great west door and waits for entry, we will act out the fact that she recognises the Cathedral has a life and ministry of its own and yet is also hers.

  • Episcopal Tombs in Early Modern England
    Jnl of Ecclesiastical History, Vol. 55, No. 4, October 2004. f 2004 Cambridge University Press 654 DOI: 10.1017/S0022046904001502 Printed in the United Kingdom Episcopal Tombs in Early Modern England by PETER SHERLOCK The Reformation simultaneously transformed the identity and role of bishops in the Church of England, and the function of monuments to the dead. This article considers the extent to which tombs of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century bishops represented a set of episcopal ideals distinct from those conveyed by the monuments of earlier bishops on the one hand and contemporary laity and clergy on the other. It argues that in death bishops were increasingly undifferentiated from other groups such as the gentry in the dress, posture, location and inscriptions of their monuments. As a result of the inherent tension between tradition and reform which surrounded both bishops and tombs, episcopal monuments were unsuccessful as a means of enhancing the status or preserving the memory and teachings of their subjects in the wake of the Reformation. etween 1400 and 1700, some 466 bishops held office in England and Wales, for anything from a few months to several decades.1 The B majority died peacefully in their beds, some fading into relative obscurity. Others, such as Richard Scrope, Thomas Cranmer and William Laud, were executed for treason or burned for heresy in one reign yet became revered as saints, heroes or martyrs in another. Throughout these three centuries bishops played key roles in the politics of both Church and PRO=Public Record Office; TNA=The National Archives I would like to thank Craig D’Alton, Felicity Heal, Clive Holmes, Ralph Houlbrooke, Judith Maltby, Keith Thomas and the anonymous reader for this JOURNAL for their comments on this article.

  • Address by Rt Revd Vivienne Faull, Bishop of Bristol Bristol Diocesan Synod 17 November 2018
    Address by Rt Revd Vivienne Faull, Bishop of Bristol Bristol Diocesan Synod 17 November 2018 This address seems to me the end of the beginning of the episcopate of Bishop Viv: as Archdeacon Graham’s licence concluded, I am now well embarked on this first year of my consecration. So this is an opportunity for me to set out not my vision for the Diocese (the Diocese has that already), but some of the ways we will together reflect on and implement that vision to create connections with God, with each other and with our communities. Last Sunday was, I suspect, for many of us, a day not just of remembrance but of encouragement and surprise. Over the four years of commemoration of the Great War, local communities have engaged with immense imagination with the story of their community between 1914 and 1918 and of individuals within it, particularly those named on our war memorials and in our churchyards. Last Sunday, there were large congregations in many of our churches and our civic spaces. We connected with our past, with our neighbours, and I believe we saw God at work. The City of Bristol observance is held at the cenotaph, which stands a few metres from Colston’s statue, and so is part of the geography of the city which has become a stage for the playing out of our contested public life. Yet last Sunday was a day for a gathering ritual, with its marching and wreath laying, its silence and its prayers. The liturgical framework was somewhat sketchy, yet in small details the presence of God was felt.

    Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86508-1 - The Heads of Religious Houses England and Wales III, 1377-1540 Edited by David M. Smith Frontmatter More information THE HEADS OF RELIGIOUS HOUSES ENGLAND AND WALES 1377–1540 This final volume of The Heads of Religious Houses: England and Wales takes the lists of monastic superiors from 1377 to the dissolution of the monastic houses ending in 1540 and so concludes a reference work covering 600 years of monastic history. In addition to surviving monastic archives, record sources have also been provided by episcopal and papal registers, governmental archives, court records, and private, family and estate collections. Full references are given for establishing the dates and outline of the career of each abbot or prior, abbess or prioress, when known. The lists are arranged by order: the Benedictine houses (independent; dependencies; and alien priories); the Cluniacs; the Grandmontines; the Cistercians; the Carthusians; the Augustinian canons; the Premonstratensians; the Gilbertine order; the Trinitarian houses; the Bonhommes; and the nuns. An intro- duction discusses the use and history of the lists and examines critically the sources on which they are based. david m. smith is Professor Emeritus, University of York. © Cambridge University Press www.cambridge.org Cambridge University Press 978-0-521-86508-1 - The Heads of Religious Houses England and Wales III, 1377-1540 Edited by David M.

  • Bishop Andrew Leads on Church Buildings
    Bishop Andrew leads on church buildings Bishop Andrew has been appointed as lead bishop for church and cathedral buildings. He shares the role with the Bishop of Bristol, the Rt Revd Viv Faull. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York announced the appointment of the two new lead bishops today [13th July]. Bishop Andrew, who is also a published author whose writing centres on themes of local and national identity, said: “I am honoured to share this new role with the Bishop of Bristol. “Our church buildings are a priceless legacy, close to the nation’s soul. I look forward to championing their vital place in public worship and community renewal, and to working with church, government and heritage bodies to assure their future.” The Church of England has around 16,000 church buildings and 42 cathedrals, of which more than 12,500 are listed. The lead Bishops support those who care for these buildings by speaking on relevant national issues and engaging in dialogue with the UK government and partner organisations. The Bishops jointly take over the role from the Bishop of Worcester, John Inge. The Archbishop of York, Stephen Cottrell said: “We are delighted that Bishop Viv and Bishop Andrew have accepted this invitation. Their combined experience will be a blessing to those who care for and uphold our places of worship as beacons of faith in our communities, and in their important civic, heritage and educational roles. “We also wish to take the opportunity to thank Bishop John Inge for all he has contributed to this role.” Bishop Viv was Dean of York prior to her appointment as Bishop of Bristol and is a member of the House of Lords.

    87 TALES OF THE UNEXPECTED: GLIMPSES OF FRIENDS IN THE ARCHIVES OF LAMBETH PALACE LIBRARY y the very nature of the collections in Lambeth Palace Library l which reflect the views of establishment figures, B Archbishops, Bishops, and to a lesser extent local clergy, it is inevitable that Friends are not always portrayed in a particularly sympathetic light, especially in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries.2 The collections as a whole illustrate the full breadth of change in society's and the Church of England's attitudes to Friends over the years. These range from virulent attack and total incomprehension of Quaker testimonies in the late seventeenth century to mutual accommodation in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries when the Society of Friends was in general conceived less as a threat to the establishment; then finally in a more ecumenical age to an acceptance that Friends had a recognisable contribution to make as both individuals and a Society - at a time when a Quaker, Douglas Steere, was among the official observers present at a Lambeth Conference, in 1968,3 and when an Archbishop of Canterbury, Robert Runcie, used his privilege under Peter's Pence Act of 1534 to grant a Lambeth doctorate of civil law to Sydney Bailey in 1985 in recognition of his services to international justice and peace, the first Quaker to receive a Lambeth degree.4 It is not my purpose to provide a lengthy catalogue of records or a guide to references to Friends in the manuscripts and archives at Lambeth, but rather to home in on a couple of different and contrasting collections dating variously from the eighteenth and the twentieth centuries which show Friends in less expected lights.
