Like its sisters in Ellerslie and Lot 11, it is a classic Early English Gothic Revival church. The style, promoted by a group of crit- ics and intellectuals called The Ecclesiologists, was a favourite of Victorian church architects. St. James is thus very high and narrow in its pro- portions and the altar, in accordance with the High Church sentiment of its day, is much elevated, with many steps raising it above the level of the nave.* Unfortunately, the height of the roof created a large volume of empty space that proved difficult to heat. The aesthetic and antiquarian dogmas of The Ecclesiologists made no provision for practicalities like fuel costs and congregational comfort in a cold cli- mate. A succession of furnaces installed after 1885 failed to solve the problem at St. James.

  • 1 Alec Vidler on Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye
    Alec Vidler On Christian Faith and Secular Despair Born in Rye, Sussex, son of a shipping businessman, Alec Vidler ( 1899‐1991)was educated at Sutton Valence School, Kent, read theology at Selwyn College, Cambridge (B.A. 1921),then trained for the Anglican ministry at Wells Theological College. He disliked Wells and transferred to the Oratory of the Good Shepherd, Cambridge, an Anglo‐Catholic community of celibates, and was ordained priest in 1923. He retained a life‐time affection for the celibate monkish life, never marrying but having a wide range of friends, including Malcolm Muggeridge, who was at Selwyn with him. Muggeridge’s father was a prominent Labourite and Vidler imbibed leftist sympathies in that circle. His first curacy was in Newcastle, working in the slums. He soon came to love his work with working class parishioners and was reluctantly transferred to St Aidan’s Birmingham, where he became involved in a celebrated stoush with the bishop E. W. Barnes, himself a controversialist of note. Vidler’s Anglo‐ Catholic approach to ritual clashed with Barnes’s evangelicalism. Vidler began a prolific career of publication in the 1920s and 30s. In 1931 he joined friends like Wilfred Ward at the Oratory House in Cambridge, steeping himself in religious history and theology, including that of Reinhold Niebuhr and “liberal Catholicism”. In 1939 Vidler became warden of St Deiniol’s Library, Hawarden (founded by a legacy from Gladstone) and also editor of the leading Anglican journal Theology, which he ran until 1964, exerting considerable progressive influence across those years. He also facilitated a number of religious think‐tanks in these, and later, years.

  • TENSION of EXISTENCE an Analysis of Harry Williams
    Studies in Spirituality 29, 121-133. doi: 10.2143/SIS.29.0.3286941 © 2019 by Studies in Spirituality. All rights reserved. FIONA GARDNER TENSION OF EXISTENCE An Analysis of Harry Williams’ Responses to the Movement of Divine Presence The fact is we can love God and our neighbour only at the expense of being able to hate both of them (…) Unless we are ready to entertain this conflict between love and hatred we shall never grow in the love of God and man.1 SUMMARY – This paper uses some of the relevant ideas of the philosopher Eric Voegelin and the analytical psychologist Carl Jung as a theoretical and critical framework to reflect on and consider the mental breakdown and psycho-spiritual experiences of the theologian Harry Williams that allowed him to move from a state of spiritual closure to one of differentiation and spiritual opening that characterizes his writings. Each interpretive approach offers differing emphases yet together provide a seamlessly compatible way of understanding Williams’ emergence into his true nature and spiritual authenticity. INTRODUCTION In 1976 Harry Williams’ book Tensions was published; based on retreat addresses the book explores conflictual feelings such as love and hate, depend- ence and independence, faith and doubt, knowing and not knowing. Williams’ premise, founded on his personal experiences, is that conflict is life, and hold- ing the tension of opposing thoughts and feelings is part of an authentic spirituality. His autobiography, published some years later, is still extraordinary for the account of his mental breakdown, the demolition of his false religious persona and his struggle to understand his psyche and his true God.2 Williams 1 H.A.

  • Statement "I Will Never Submit to My Country Being Put Into The
    263 Re-armed" he pointed to an urgent task - this was in 1950 - which was the prevention of any conniving at a continuation of German militarism. "It is not dead : it'will take a generation to get it out of the blood. Until then it is dangerous policy to encourage a revival of militarism in a people who have proved themselves more aggressive and vastly more efficient than Russia or any other European people". (4) In the same year Hunter referred to an over-riding political issue by quoting Archbishop C. F. Garbett, his much-esteemed metropolitan, 'Our party politics are the games of children playing on the sands compared with the... necessity of finding some agreement by which this ghastly threat to the human race (sc. the hydrogen bomb) can be removed. ' This can only be done, Hunter commented, "by an effective, realistic attempt once again to reach agreement with Russia". (5) He did not venture on any political theorising as to how agreement might be forthcoming. He could console himself with the thought that this was the -ý ölitician's task into which sphere the layman should not enter. Ten years later in the House of Lords Hunter spoke cogently in the_. debate on Disarmament and indicated underlying human factors which politicians ought to keep in mind. He supported the Archbishop of York (A. M. Ramsey) who had intervened earlier to say that "the right moral demand is... for disarmament by agreement" (6) and had listened to Viscount Alexander of Hillsborough's patriotic statement "I will never submit to my country being put into the unilateral position of being the only main Power that provides 264 no defence for the rights of its citizens".

    CATHOLICS INCORPORATED: CLASS, POWER, AND THE POLITICS OF ASSIMILATION IN NINETEENTH CENTURY AMERICA By PATRICK T. MCGRATH A dissertation submitted to the School of Graduate Studies Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey In partial fulfillment of the requirements For the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in History Written under the direction of T.J. Jackson Lears And approved by _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ _____________________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey October 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Catholics Incorporated: Class, Power, and the Politics of Assimilation in Nineteenth Century America By PATRICK T. MCGRATH Dissertation Director: T.J. Jackson Lears This project takes as its subject the integration of Catholicism into nineteenth-century American society, politics, and culture. Adopting a cross-regional approach, the dissertation argues that by midcentury the Church was far better integrated into the American South than the North, and had forged a powerful alliance with the Southern planter elite and the Southern-dominated Democratic Party. In the aftermath of the Civil War, the Church increasingly forged an alliance with the growing Irish- American middle-class, whose influence within Democratic politics proved critical to the advancement of Catholic interests. During the Gilded Age the Church itself proved an arena of ideological conflict, as working-class radicals and Irish-American elites sought to define the Church’s relationship to power and poverty. In the 1890s, however, many working-class radicals returned to the Church and embraced Catholic conservatism. At 1900 the Irish-dominated institutional Church defined itself as a bulwark of conservatism, moral order, and “American” values against the threat of secular radicals and liberals.

  • R a Lindley Final Thesis, 2014
    UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Christian Theism in Anglican Theology, 1945-2014 Richard Adrian Lindley Doctor of Philosophy April 2014 This Thesis has been completed as a requirement for a postgraduate degree of the University of Winchester THE UNIVERSITY OF WINCHESTER ABSTRACT FOR THESIS Christian Theism in Anglican Theology, 1945-2014 Richard Adrian Lindley Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Doctor of Philosophy April 2014 Rowan Williams, David Ford and others have drawn attention to the importance of the ‘informal theology’ of ordinary believers, its validity as representing genuine insights, and the risk of detachment that occurs if academic theologians do not take it into account. Jeff Astley has examined the phenomenology of informal theology (which he calls ‘ordinary theology’) and the processes that have been and can be followed in examining it. Largely, however, he has not surveyed the actual content of believers’ informal theology. This thesis examines the most basic, yet profound, theist concept, that of ‘God’, in historical, academic theology since the Second World War, and in contemporary informal theology measured by an exercise in practical theology. The historical theology consists of a review of academic and popular writings by professional United Kingdom Anglican theologians (as they have taken into account logical positivism, human suffering and scientific insights). This review is presented according to a series of eight themes. The thesis then describes the preparation and execution of a survey of the understanding of God on the part of a sample of Anglican church-attenders in Winchester, carried out by questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, together with analysis of the results.

Parker-McGee Charles Gore and the Theology of Priesthood Abstract The following dissertation is an investigation into the constitutive elements of a theology of priesthood to be found within the work of Charles Gore. Looking at Gore’s thought over a whole range of theological areas, this dissertation advances Gore’s theology of priesthood and develops his rich theological legacy with fresh insight into what he suggests the ordained priesthood may be called to be and do. As such it uncovers how the theology of priesthood is tied into Gore’s entire theological vision, connecting to his accounts of the Church, the sacraments and the incarnation.
