Europe is both a territorial land mass and an idea. Throughout its history Europe has been a source of division and contest. Competing and often irreconcilable forces have often developed, and sometimes imposed, their own views as to what ‘Europe’ constitutes. Europe has never had clear or settled boundaries. Attempts to define Europe, either in terms of geography, culture, religion, politics, social or economic interaction, invariably produce different boundaries. The Conference on Security and Co-operation in Europe, for instance, sees Europe as stretching from ‘Vancouver to Vladivostock’. This contrasts with the Europe of Western Catholic Christendom which stretches from ‘Dublin to Lublin’. The easternmost regions of the Continent – lands evangelised by the Eastsern Orthodox Churches – have a particularly ambiguous attitude to the idea and new structures of Europe, especially after a century of revolution and totalitarian communism. 2. This definitional uncertainty means that Europe has often been defined by what it is not. Thus Europe stops where Asia or Africa begins; or where traditional Christendom gives way to other creeds. Following the end of the Second World War, Europe has become more closely associated with the European Union. Countries that accede to the EU are seen as joining Europe.

  • A History of St. Augustine's Monastery, Canterbury
    H Distort of St Huaustine's Monastery Canterbury. BY The Reverend R. J. E. BOGGIS, B.D. Sub- Warden of St. A ugustinfs College. Canterbury : CROSS & JACKMAN, 1901. PREFACE. Churchman or the Antiquarian cannot but feel THEa pang of regret as he turns over the pages of such a work as Dugdale's Monasticon, and notes the former glories of the Religious Houses of England before the hand of the spoliator, had consigned them to desecration and ruin. Some of these homes of religion and learning have entirely disappeared, while others are represented by fragments of buildings that are fast crumbling to decay; and among these latter possibly even among the former would have been counted St. Augustine's, had it not been for the pious and public-spirited action of Mr. A. J. Beresford Hope, who in 1844 purchased part of the site of the ancient Abbey, and gave it back to the Church of England with its buildings restored and adapted for the require- ments of a Missionary College. The outburst of en- thusiasm that accompanied this happy consummation of the efforts of the Reverend Edward Coleridge is still remembered not a few devout Church by people ; and there are very many besides, who rejoice in the fresh lease of life that has thus been granted to the PREFACE. old Foundation, and are interested in the service that is now being here rendered to the English Church of modern times. Such persons may like to have the opportunity of tracing the varied fortunes of the St. Augustine's of former ages, and I have therefore en- deavoured to set forth a sketch of its history during the 940 years of its existence as a Religious House, till the day when the Crown took possession of the Church's property, and "St.

  • Historical Notes Pp.72-82
    Historical Notes A reappraisal of the reliabality of the 1676 'Compton Census' with respect to Leicester by David Wykes The 'Compton Census' is important as the first comprehensive survey of the numerical strength of Catholic and Protestant Nonconformity that can be used on a comparative basis for the whole country. The return was made on the instructions of Sheldon, Archbishop of Canterbury, who was concerned for political reasons with the numerical strength of religious dissent from the Established Church. There are, however, serious doubts about its construction and even its veracity. The main dispute centres on the basis of the calculations used by the Clergy in their returns. In the estimates of the numbers of conformists in their parish, did the clergy include servants? And were their calculations based on the number of families, or adults over the age of sixteen years or only adult males? There is evidence to suggest that the bases of calculations differ throughout the country and even within individual dioceses. 1 For most counties in the Province of Canterbury it is necessary to use an eighteenth-century copy of the return which survives in the William Salt Library 2 but fortunately for Leicester­ shire, the majority of the original returns survive amongst the Archdeaconry Records. 3 Surviving with them are the instructions from the Bishop of Lincoln to his Archdeacon at Leicester and copies of Archbishop Sheldon's letter to Compton, and the Bishop of London's letter to his fellow bishops as Dean Provincial. 4 Although the Bishop of Lincoln had originally thought that only adult men were to be included in the returns of conformists, his error was rectified in a second letter to the Archdeacon in which it was specifically stated that the Archbishop of Canterbury intended that 'women above 16 yeares of age are to be likewise returned' ,5 and the return for All Saints' Parish, Leicester, makes it clear that all men and women over the age of sixteen years were included.

  • Sources for the Liturgy of Canterbury Cathedral in the Central Middle Ages
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Kent Academic Repository Sources for the Liturgy of Canterbury Cathedral in the Central Middle Ages HELEN GITTOS Recent research suggests there is a large quantity of surviving evidence for the liturgi- cal texts written at Canterbury cathedral in the central middle ages. A provisional list of manuscripts containing material for occasional rites, such as Candlemas, Palm Sunday and the dedication of churches is given, and the reasons for thinking they contain evidence for Canterbury’s liturgy are presented. Some examples are given to illustrate their potential as sources of evidence for architectural historians, including for the policies of individual bishops, the fabric of the cathedral, and changes in the performance of the liturgy. IT has been said that ‘no detailed history’ of the medieval liturgy of Canterbury cathedral ‘can be written, since very little relevant documentation has survived’.1 This is simply not true. Recent research suggests that there is a large quantity of surviving evidence for the liturgical texts written at the cathedral in the central middle ages, from c. 900 to c. 1150. In this article I shall give a preliminary review of that evidence, focusing on the material of greatest interest to architectural historians. The most useful sources for understanding how rituals were performed are those containing directions for how to perform them; even if these are only ideals and bear little relation to what actually happened, they are still informative about what those ideals were. Such texts tend to be found in books written for priests (manuals), bishops (pontifi cals), and as guidance for how an ecclesiastical community should be run (customaries).

  • Non-Church of England Clergy Who Wish to Officiate a Brief Guide to the Process of Obtaining the Archbishop of Canterbury’S Permission Under the 1967 Measure
    Province of Canterbury Non-Church of England Clergy who wish to Officiate A brief guide to the process of obtaining the Archbishop of Canterbury’s permission under the 1967 Measure 1) What is the law relating to non-Church of England clergy and the exercise of their ministry in the Church of England? A. Canon C 8 provides that certain priests and deacons (listed below) (‘non-Church of England clergy’) may officiate in the Church of England only if they have obtained the authority of the bishop of the diocese and the permission of the Archbishop of the Province (the “Archbishop’s Permission”).1 To do so without having obtained the Archbishop’s Permission, even for one service, is an ecclesiastical offence for which proceedings may be taken under the Clergy Discipline Measure 2003. 2 B. Applications by non-Church of England clergy for an Archbishop’s Permission are made under the Overseas and Other Clergy (Ministry and Ordination) Measure 1967. Clergy who are granted the Archbishop’s Permission are then treated for all legal purposes as clergy of the Church of England (subject to any limitation of time contained in the permission). 2) Who needs to apply for the Archbishop’s Permission? The following non-Church of England clergy must apply for the Archbishop’s Permission under the 1967 Measure if they wish to officiate as deacon, priest or bishop in the Church of England: Those ordained by a bishop in the Church of England or an Anglican bishop of a church which is in communion with the Church of England, whose diocese or office is elsewhere than in the province of Canterbury, York, Ireland, Wales or Scotland (known as “Overseas Bishops”).
