  • Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549
    “JUST AS THE PRIESTS HAVE THEIR WIVES”: PRIESTS AND CONCUBINES IN ENGLAND, 1375-1549 Janelle Werner A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2009 Approved by: Advisor: Professor Judith M. Bennett Reader: Professor Stanley Chojnacki Reader: Professor Barbara J. Harris Reader: Cynthia B. Herrup Reader: Brett Whalen © 2009 Janelle Werner ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT JANELLE WERNER: “Just As the Priests Have Their Wives”: Priests and Concubines in England, 1375-1549 (Under the direction of Judith M. Bennett) This project – the first in-depth analysis of clerical concubinage in medieval England – examines cultural perceptions of clerical sexual misbehavior as well as the lived experiences of priests, concubines, and their children. Although much has been written on the imposition of priestly celibacy during the Gregorian Reform and on its rejection during the Reformation, the history of clerical concubinage between these two watersheds has remained largely unstudied. My analysis is based primarily on archival records from Hereford, a diocese in the West Midlands that incorporated both English- and Welsh-speaking parishes and combines the quantitative analysis of documentary evidence with a close reading of pastoral and popular literature. Drawing on an episcopal visitation from 1397, the act books of the consistory court, and bishops’ registers, I argue that clerical concubinage occurred as frequently in England as elsewhere in late medieval Europe and that priests and their concubines were, to some extent, socially and culturally accepted in late medieval England.

  • SERVICES & MUSIC July
    S ERVICES & M USIC July Welcome This month sees a number of new beginnings and also some endings: We have a new Bishop of Bristol! At the end of last month the election of the Very Revd Vivienne Faull was confirmed and at the start of this month she will be consecrated as a Bishop in St Paul’s Cathedral. We very much look forward to welcoming her to the Diocese in October. We have eleven new deacons and nine new priests! They were ordained by the Bishop of Swindon and will be a great blessing as they serve in parishes across the Diocese. We will be saying farewell to a number of choristers, a Lay Clerk and two Choral Scholars. Their skills have enhanced our worship immeasurably and we are extremely grateful for their dedication, their commitment and their willingness to serve God in this Cathedral. We will miss them, but they leave with our prayers and good wishes as they leave here and move on to new pastures. Many of our highly-trained choristers choose to continue their musical studies in further education, often followed by a career in music. In the autumn the Archdeacon of Malmesbury, the Ven Christine Froude, will retire and at the end of July Christine will preside here at the 10.00am Eucharist. Christine and her husband David, a Lay Canon, have both been a part of Cathedral life for many years and this will give us an opportunity to thank them for their generous support. They leave Bristol with our love and our prayers as they begin this exciting and well-deserved new chapter in their lives.

  • Diocesan Funding Guide
    Diocesan Funding Guide This guide outlines the main funders for church projects across the Diocese of Bristol. It includes grant-making trusts specifically based in and targeted at parishes and communities within the Diocese of Bristol, as well as national bodies that aren’t included in the Church of England’s ‘Charitable Grants for Churches’ resource. Please see our website for more information to help with planning, communicating and funding your church project: www.bristol.anglican.org/fundraising Across the Diocese of Bristol we are blessed with a huge variety of beautiful, sacred and historic churches. From medieval chapels nestled in the Wiltshire and Gloucestershire countryside to iconic city centre churches and more modern Christian centres, all are special places for prayer, worship and community. Yet they all also come with a responsibility for their upkeep and maintenance. Particularly with older buildings, this can carry a significant financial cost. The Diocesan Support Services, alongside the Diocesan Advisory Committee, are here to support your church in bearing this responsibility and keeping these special places fit for purpose for future generations. As well as undertaking quinquennial inspections to assess the fabric of all our churches, we also aim to provide tailored support to help parishes to plan and resource any repairs, reordering, or building work. This guide is intended to accompany the existing national list Charitable Grants for Churches. It provides details of over a hundred local trusts and foundations that fund churches within the geographical boundaries of our diocese, plus national bodies that aren’t listed elsewhere. This is a working document, so please do tell us if you spot any incorrect information or can suggest other institutions to include in this guide.
