The Church Act The Church Act: The expansion of Christianity or the imposition of moral enlightenment? David Stoneman A Thesis submitted as fulfilment of the requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of New England, Australia, 2011. Abstract The Church Act (1836) redefined and reinvigorated the religious environment in the emerging British colony of New South Wales, which profoundly impacted on its social and political development in a period of rapid population growth. It was a popular measure that has seen Governor Richard Bourke, its principal architect, be remembered as a provider of religious freedom. The simple motivation of the Act to expand Christianity and therefore morality has been complicated by the assertion that it assisted the expansion of a ‘new faith’ called moral enlightenment. This changes the implication of the Act and redefines the motives of the people responsible for its introduction, especially Bourke, by assuming that secular Enlightenment principles overrode Christian objectives. This has provided an ideological superstructure that has been used by some nationalist historians to present a picture of New South Wales colonial life that was fundamentally irreligious verging on atheistic. This has served to diminish the importance of religious thought and belief in the early development of Australia. This thesis argues that the Church Act was conceived to counter various forms of alternative belief and synchronised Christianity, ranging from plebeian ‘folk religion’ to heterodoxical, intellectual Protestantism. It encouraged orthodox Christianity by financially supporting the denominations that had cultural as well as spiritual connections to the majority of the population. The thesis concludes that the Church Act should be categorised as being a product of the ‘Age of Atonement’ not the imposition of moral enlightenment. i Disclaimer I ce11ify that the substance of this thesis has not already been submitted for any degree and is not being cu1Tently submitted for any other degrees. I certify that to the best of knowledge, any help received in preparing this thesis, and all the sources used, have been acknowledged in the thesis.

In the course of the thesis the Anglican Church is often capitalised as the Church, while the Catholic Church and Church of Scotland are always specified. Dissenters and Nonconformists are interchangeable terms used to signify non-established Protestant churches. The word Evangelical is used to broadly represent both the Evangelical faction of the Anglican Church and that section of belief found in Dissent and the Church of Scotland. In some cases the word will be used in lower case to describe those who focused on evangelism in their Christianity. iv Acknowledgements I would like to thank the University of New England for their confidence in awarding me an Australian Postgraduate Award. The long-standing commitment of the University’s School of Humanities to Australian colonial and British history has been significant for a generation of young and not so young historians. The fruit of this commitment is still maturing. Dr David Andrew Roberts has supervised and provided a scholarly critique for both my honours thesis and this Ph.D. Both works have benefited from his encyclopaedic knowledge of Australian colonial history and his ability to keep me on track. Dr Richard Scully has also given an intellectual assessment of the areas of British and European history that I have dared to explore. Dr Erin Ihde and Associate Professor Jennifer Clark have generously dedicated time to the development of my ideas. Their enthusiastic endorsement and on-going encouragement was greatly appreciated. I also thank the staff of the State Library of New South Wales, Moore College Library, Fryer Library and the Dixon Library for their help in accessing their collections. Professors Alan Atkinson and David Kent inspired many of the ideas explored in this thesis in my undergraduate years. Dr Rob Knowles was also a mentor at this time and encouraged me to pursue my academic dreams. v On the statue of Richard Bourke outside the Mitchell Library in Sydney are the words, ‘he established religious equality on a just and firm basis’. The statue was paid for out of a public subscription of £2500 mostly donated in the first week after Bourke’s departure in December 1837. The donations came from a wide section of society including hundreds of poorer people.1 It is the only statue of a colonial governor built from donations. Bourke’s supporters undoubtedly considered religious equality as a significant and valuable reform. 1 Max Waugh, Forgotten Hero: Richard Bourke, Irish Governor of New South Wales, 1831- 1837, Melbourne, 2005, pp. xvi, 165. vi Introduction In July 1836 Governor Richard Bourke laid before the New South Wales Legislative Council ‘An act to promote the Building of Churches and Chapels and to provide for the maintenance of Ministers of Religion in New South Wales’, commonly referred to as the Church Act.1 Bourke informed the Colonial Office that ‘It met with no opposition in the Council’ and that ‘the measure meets with the sincere and grateful acquiescence of all classes of the Community’.2 The Church Act committed the colony to fund from general revenue the expansion of religion. A £1000 grant for the erection of churches and dwellings for the clergy was provided if a subscription of £300 could be raised. The government also committed to pay the minister a yearly stipend of £100 for a congregation of 100 people, £150 for 200, and £200 for over 500 people. Applications for funding required a list of people declaring their intention to attend the church. It was an initiative that redefined the relationship of the churches to the state by initially expanding aid to the Church of England, Church of Scotland and Roman Catholics, and later to the Wesleyan Methodists.3 Australian settlement possessed an intrinsic religious aspect. Britain was not a secular state at the time. The monarch was head of both the established Church and state, and Parliament was responsible for the superintendence of both. The penal colony was established and governed in the context of this fusion of Church and state. Therefore, because the settlement of Australia did not recognise any other existing forms of government, kingdom or religion in the new land, it could be argued that the Church of England was by its position established in the British settlement. J. S. Gregory believed there was no official statement to this effect because it was too 1 7 William IV, No. 3. There were two accompanying acts that dealt with the Anglicans and Presbyterians organisationally, which will be evaluated in later chapters. 2 Bourke to Glenelg, 14 September 1836, HRA, 1, XVIII, p. 535. 3 To provide some context to these figures, the minimum stipend of £100 was more than the wages of the most elite workers, such as blacksmiths, carpenters and stonemasons, and three times the wages of some labourers. As well, ministers would expect additional income from clerical fees, pew rents, donations and education work. The grant of £1000 could easily provide a reasonable church building. This demonstrates the generosity of the provisions, and the unbiased fashion in which it was allocated began a new era in New South Wales Christianity. 1 obvious to require it.4 The Colonial Acts, 24 Geo. III c.56 (1784) and 27 Geo. III c.2 (1785) provided the basis for a military penal settlement with the governor given the authority of a military command. In this period the Church was considered an official chaplaincy to the settlement, and Richard Johnson was given the commission as the ‘Chaplain of the Territory of New South Wales’. All state-funded chaplains worked under the same commission until 1823 when an Archdeacon was appointed.5 There was also a lay ministry, as well as independent missionary activities arising from the colony’s interaction with the work of the London Missionary Society in the South Pacific.6 In the 1820s, a Legislative Council was instituted in New South Wales to assist the governor in administering the colony. Francis Forbes arrived as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, and Thomas Hobbes Scott was appointed to the ecclesiastical position of Archdeacon. The Colonial Office expanded the chaplaincy to provide stipends to the Church of Scotland and the Catholic Church, and other independent Dissenting groups arrived, including Methodist missionaries. By 1824 the colonial chaplaincy included a Presbyterian minister on a stipend of £300, two Catholic priests receiving £100 each, while the Anglicans received £2032 for churches and schools.7 The new Archdeacon was provided with a commission that began a new phase in Australian Christianity. He obtained a senior position in the Legislative and Executive Councils, as well as oversight of the Church and Schools Corporation.

This section requires students to explore: 1. The political, social and religious background in Ireland prior to the arrival of Christianity in Ireland. 2. Evidence of the arrival of Christianity in Ireland before Patrick (Pre-Patrician Christianity. 3. References to Palladius and the significance of these references to understanding the background to Christianity in Ireland before Patrick’s arrival. Early Irish society provided a great contrast to the society of the Roman Empire. For example, it had no towns or cities, no central government or no standard currency. Many Scholars have described it as tribal, rural, hierarchical and familiar. The Tuath was the basic political group or unit and was a piece of territory ruled by a King. It is estimated that there were about 150 such Tuath in pre – Christian Ireland. The basic social group was the fine and included all relations in the male line of descent.

  • Violence and the Sacred in Northern Ireland
    VIOLENCE AND THE SACRED IN NORTHERN IRELAND Duncan Morrow University of Ulster at Jordanstown For 25 years Northern Ireland has been a society characterized not so much by violence as by an endemic fear of violence. At a purely statistical level the risk of death as a result of political violence in Belfast was always between three and ten times less than the risk of murder in major cities of the United States. Likewise, the risk of death as the result of traffic accidents in Northern Ireland has been, on average, twice as high as the risk of death by political killing (Belfast Telegraph, 23 January 1994). Nevertheless, the tidal flow of fear about political violence, sometimes higher and sometimes lower but always present, has been the consistent fundamental backdrop to public, and often private, life. This preeminence of fear is triggered by past and present circumstances and is projected onto the vision of the future. The experience that disorder is ever close at hand has resulted in an endemic insecurity which gives rise to the increasingly conscious desire for a new order, for scapegoats and for resolution. For a considerable period of time, Northern Ireland has actively sought and made scapegoats but such actions have been ineffective in bringing about the desired resolution to the crisis. They have led instead to a continuous mimetic crisis of both temporal and spatial dimensions. To have lived in Northern Ireland is to have lived in that unresolved crisis. Liberal democracy has provided the universal transcendence of Northern Ireland's political models. Northern Ireland is physically and spiritually close to the heartland of liberal democracy: it is geographically bound by Britain and Ireland, economically linked to Western Europe, and historically tied to emigration to the United States, Canada, and the South Pacific.

  • George Canning and the Representation of Liverpool, 1812-1823 1
    'The Pride of my Publick Life': George Canning and the Representation of Liverpool, 1812-1823 1 Stephen M. Lee I George Canning (1770-1827) was one of the most significant figures on the Pittite side of British politics in the first three decades of the nineteenth century, and his successful campaign for a seat at Liverpool in 1812 both illustrated and contributed to the profound changes that his political career underwent during this period. Sandwiched between his failure to return to office in May-July 1812 following the assassination of Spencer Perceval and his decision to disband his personal following (his 'little Senate') in July i8i3,2 this campaign marked for Canning a turn away from the aristocratic political arena of Westminster, which he had come to find so frustrating, towards a political culture which, if at first alien, was replete with new possibilities. Moreover, Canning's experience as representative for Liverpool was indicative of wider changes in the political landscape of early nineteenth-century Britain. Before considering in detail some of the key aspects of Canning's outward turn, however, it will be useful to offer a brief description of the constituency of Liverpool and a short account of the elections that Canning fought there.3 1 This article is a revised version of chapter 3 of Stephen M. Lee, 'George Canning and the Tories, 1801-1827' (unpuh.

According to sources he led an adventurous life, and spent time in out of the way colonial outposts. He composed music seemingly of substance, and for ensembles normally associated with higher class music, yet despite this, we have only one work surviving by this active musician and prolific composer. Much of his life and professional activity has been thoroughly explored in Graeme Skinner’s important thesis on early Australian composition.1 More is found in his website of Australian composers, and the accompanying chronology of Australian composition.2 Both sources are important documents.3 The birth date of Joseph Gautrot is unknown, but there are various mentions of his early life and career in an obituary in Bell’s Life of 4 February 1854.4 In the obituary he was cited as being a member of Napoleon’s Imperial Guard, probably as a musician, and was present during the Russian Campaign of 1812.

  • Father Therry-100 Years On
    Father Therry-100 years On Imprimatur: ✠ JUSTIN D. SIMONDS, Archiepiscopus Melburnensis. 5th June, 1964. Nihil Obstat: BERNARD O'CONNOR, Diocesan Censor. July 10, 1964 The Convict Cart Through the streets of Cork in 1818 there rumbled a wagon load of convicts. Bound for Botany Bay, the twenty or thirty prisoners were in irons on their way to the docks. A young priest stopped the driver and learnt of their destination. On the spur of the moment he ran into a neighbouring bookshop, bought a bundle of prayer books and threw them into the cart, vowing to follow his countrymen to the ends of the earth, if needed, to save their souls. In retrospect, that handful of books was the scattering of his first seeds of Catholicism in Australia, for the young priest was John Joseph Therry, secretary to Bishop Murphy of Cork. Such an act was typical of the warm-hearted and impulsive young man ordained only three years earlier. Born in the City of Cork in 1790, he was able to enjoy the luxury of a private tutor with his brothers, James and Stephen and his sister, Jane Anne, during his early years. As a seminarian at St. Patrick's College, Carlow, he seems to have been a thorough if not brilliant student. His family was hit by financial losses in those years. "The course of my college studies was interrupted at an early stage by family embarrassment," he wrote in 1819. At his own request he was ordained prematurely by the Archbishop of Dublin in 1815. Even before Father O'Flynn had sailed on his ill-fated mission to New South Wales, Father Therry had seriously considered volunteering for that mission field.

  • The Irish Penitentials and Contemporary Celtic Christianity
    The Spirit in Contemporary Culture THE IRISH PENITENTIALS AND CONTEMPORARY CELTIC CHRISTIANITY Janet Tanner ELTIC CHRISTIANITY, as it is understood and practised today, has an C influence that appears to be spreading widely and rapidly through the many old and new denominations and forms of Christianity, not only in the old Celtic heartlands of Britain but throughout the Christian world, particularly, as in the US and Australia, where there is a British heritage. The phenomenon is difficult to define with any accuracy; but there are a few Christian communities that consciously seek to use theological insights and practices based on their understanding of the ancient traditions of Celtic Christianity, and I should like to argue that their influence is ‘trickling down’ into twenty- first-century Christianity. This is especially true in those places where an effort is being made to develop a church consciousness that is genuinely expressed in and through the local culture or sub-cultures. Approaches to penance based on Celtic Christianity are an important part of this process. I should like to explore the influence of three communities—the Iona Community, the Northumbria Community and the Community of Aidan and Hilda.1 Each of these was founded in the twentieth century, with greater or lesser reliance on the Celtic Christian tradition, but their awareness and their use of the ancient Irish Celtic approach to penance varies greatly. 1 See www.iona.org.uk, www.northumbriacommunity.org and www.aidanandhilda.org. The Way, 48/2 (April 2009), 63–78 64 Janet Tanner Handbooks for Busy Practitioners To begin at the beginning we need to start with the penitentials: handbooks of penance completed largely in the sixth to ninth centuries in Ireland and Celtic Britain.
