Its objective –– in a development of my Master’s dissertation research into the Admonition Controversy of the 1570s1 –– is to reveal the nature of disagreements which culminated in the split between the Church of England and Nonconformity in the early 1660s, the ‘Great Ejection’. What were the imperative incentives, the religious convictions, which motivated the participants, given the deprivation suffered by those driven from their positions of ministry, and the consequences suffered by the national Church in England? The thesis makes a comparative study of events in the late sixteenth century, when controversy in the Elizabethan Church did not result in division: rather the incentive was towards consensus, and a rejection of separation. Why was this, given that the issues at stake were not dissimilar and no less contentious? Having defined the terminology to be used, and explored the historiographical and analytical contributions from historians and theologians, the thesis moves to an exploration of primary evidence from the times under review, the documentary evidence extant from religious controversies during the periods, and the polemical literature from principal participants in religious debate in the late sixteenth, and mid-seventeenth centuries in England. The thesis draws together conclusions resulting from this research, and seeks to make meaningful observations regarding the nature and causes of religious divisions in any century, and then to make comment upon disagreements between Christian believers in our own time, drawing upon the nature of division as revealed in English Christendom’s post-Reformation history. 1 Michael Tanner, ‘The ‘Admonition Controversy’ and the ‘Puritan’ Agenda Within the English Church in the 1570s, with Particular Reference to the Elizabethan Book of Common Prayer’, Master of Arts degree dissertation, History of Christianity, (London, 2002) 3 Acknowledgements I wish to express my thanks, and acknowledge my indebtedness to my supervisors, Dr. David Crankshaw, and Dr. Susannah Ticciati, both of King’s College London, for their wise supervision and counsel, and for the immense encouragement which I have received from them in the preparation of this thesis. I am grateful also for the facilities provided by the Maughan Library at the college, and the expert assistance received from its staff. My research has also drawn upon amenities available at the British Library, Sussex University Library, the Institute of Historical Research, Dr. Williams’s Library, The Bodleian Library, and many others. For personal logistical reasons, attendance at these institutions was not possible as often as would have been desired, but the electronic facilities provided have been of invaluable assistance. In this regard, without the services provided by online sites, such as Early English Books Online, the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, JSTOR,2 British History Online, University of London Research Library, Church History Timeline, and others, it is doubted whether it would have been possible to submit this research thesis in the form in which it is now presented. The author is appreciatively conscious of the incredible amount of electronic information which is now readily available to the researcher. My thanks are also due to the clergy and members of my regular Church, St. Mary’s, Hailsham, and also to members of the Chichester Diocesan Readers’ Committee for their practical and inspirational support. Finally, my warmest appreciation must be reserved for my wife, Pamela, my family, and my friends for their never failing encouragement and patient understanding. 2 JSTOR: Journal Storage online system. 4 Contents Notes on Conventions 5 Abbreviations 6 Introduction 33 Chapter 1 Religious Controversy in the Early Modern English Church 39 a.

With quotations drawn from secondary sources, that source’s convention has been followed, and any American spelling has been Anglicised. Biblical quotations are from the ‘King James’ version. Surnames together with first names or initials are given at the first mention of individuals: thereafter –– almost always –– surnames only, except where there is a need to differentiate between those having the same surname. In the Bibliography and the list of Abbreviations, the place of publication and date of the edition consulted are given, preceded where applicable by the place and date of the first edition. The common use in the title page of early sources of a capital for the first letter of every word has not been followed. Roman numerals are used for volume numbers and page numbers are in Arabic. In the list of Abbreviations, lengthy titles have been abridged. The purpose of the extensive list of Abbreviations is to facilitate the reduction in the size of footnotes and their complexity. Early modern publications tend to employ lengthy titles and these would need to be abbreviated anyway. This convention is intended to give consistency with simplicity of reference. Dates Dates are Old Style, i.e., according to the Julian calendar. Early modern English practice was normally to begin the year of grace on 25 March. In order to avoid confusion, the split date is given for dates falling between 1 January and 24 March where this is known. Thus: 22 February 1584/5 means 1584 according to early modern usage, but 1585 according to modern usage. When quoting from secondary sources, the dating convention of that source has been followed. ________________________________________________________________ 6 List of Abbreviations Abbot, Reasons George Abbot, The Reasons Which Doctor Hill hath Brought, for the upholding of Papistry, ...

  • The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, Scj., M.A., PH.D
    CCHA, Study Sessions, 45(1978), 37-55 The Sisters of St. Joseph. Beginnings in London Diocese 1868-1878 by Sister Julia MOORE, scj., M.A., PH.D. The first ten years of the history of the Sisters of S t. Joseph of London, 1868-1878 is the subject of this paper. However, since the London Community traces its roots to the first foundation of the Sisters of St. Joseph made at Lepuy, France in 1650, I shall refer briefly to our origins. T he first Sisters were brought together by a French Jesuit, Jean-Pierre Médaille. This holy man, reflecting upon his country’s sufferings resulting from the aftermath of the W ars of Religion, longed to heal its wounded people. That is the reason why the Congregation he founded had as basic concept UNITY; this is also interpreted as Reconciliation or Healing. The first members visited and cared for the sick, ministered to the poor, the aged, the imprisoned and instructed young girls in spiritual matters. In the early years, the Congregation grew steadily in numbers of Sisters and established Convents keeping pace with the growth. The French Revolution brought its sufferings, and the persecution of the Terrorists caused the dispersement of the members of the Community. Before the Reign of Terror was over, five Sisters of St. Joseph had been guillotined and another five were awaiting the same fate in the prison of St. Didier-Haute Loire. With the fall of Robespierre, the imprisoned Sisters were freed and one of them, Mother S t. John Fontbonne, reorganized the Community members, assembling them at Lyons in 1807.

  • The Irish Catholic Episcopal Corps, 1657 – 1829: a Prosopographical Analysis
    THE IRISH CATHOLIC EPISCOPAL CORPS, 1657 – 1829: A PROSOPOGRAPHICAL ANALYSIS VOLUME 1 OF 2 BY ERIC A. DERR THESIS FOR THE DEGREE OF PHD DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY NATIONAL UNIVERISTY OF IRELAND MAYNOOTH SUPERVISOR OF RESEARCH: DR. THOMAS O’CONNOR NOVEMBER 2013 Abstract This study explores, reconstructs and evaluates the social, political, educational and economic worlds of the Irish Catholic episcopal corps appointed between 1657 and 1829 by creating a prosopographical profile of this episcopal cohort. The central aim of this study is to reconstruct the profile of this episcopate to serve as a context to evaluate the ‘achievements’ of the four episcopal generations that emerged: 1657-1684; 1685- 1766; 1767-1800 and 1801-1829. The first generation of Irish bishops were largely influenced by the complex political and religious situation of Ireland following the Cromwellian wars and Interregnum. This episcopal cohort sought greater engagement with the restored Stuart Court while at the same time solidified their links with continental agencies. With the accession of James II (1685), a new generation of bishops emerged characterised by their loyalty to the Stuart Court and, following his exile and the enactment of new penal legislation, their ability to endure political and economic marginalisation. Through the creation of a prosopographical database, this study has nuanced and reconstructed the historical profile of the Jacobite episcopal corps and has shown that the Irish episcopate under the penal regime was not only relatively well-organised but was well-engaged in reforming the Irish church, albeit with limited resources. By the mid-eighteenth century, the post-Jacobite generation (1767-1800) emerged and were characterised by their re-organisation of the Irish Church, most notably the establishment of a domestic seminary system and the setting up and manning of a national parochial system.

  • The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640
    The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640 A.R. Pennie Submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the award of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Research conducted in the Department of History. Submitted: November, 1989. bs. 1 The Evolution of Puritan Mentality in an Essex Cloth Town: Dedham and the Stour Valley, 1560-1640 A.R. Pennie Summary of thesis The subject of this thesis is the impact of religious reformation on the inhabitants of a small urban centre, with some reference to the experience of nearby settle- ments. Dedham has a place in national history as a centre of the Elizabethan Puritan Movement but the records of the Dedham Conference (the local manifestation of that movement), also illustrate the development of Reformed religion in Dedham and associated parishes. The contents of the thesis may be divided into four sections. The first of these concerns the material life of the inhabitants of Dedham and the way in which this generated both the potential for social cohesion and the possibility of social conflict. The second section examines the attempt at parish reformation sponsored by the ministers associated with the Dedham Conference and the militant and exclusive doctrine of the Christian life elaborated by the succeeding generation of preachers. The third element of the thesis focuses on the way in which the inhabitants articulated the expression of a Reformed or Puritan piety and, on occasion, the rejection of features of that piety. The ways in which the townspeople promoted the education of their children, the relief of the poor and the acknowledgement of ties of kinship and friendship, have been examined in terms of their relationship to a collective mentality characterized by a strong commitment to 'godly' religion.
