Date: N r:-eJ, . / '1 '1 7 Signature of Candidate: 11 Abstract The royal supremacy established by Henry VIII was never fully defined or resolved. Was it an imperial kingship or a mixed polity - the king-in-parliament? Professor G.R Elton's theory of parliamentary supremacy has been accepted for many years, but more recently this theory has come under attack from Professors Peter Lake, John Guy, and Patrick Collinson. They have shown that it was not strictly the case that either the r<iral" supremacy or the ecclesiastical polity of the Tudors was a settled issue; there was a tension and an uncertainty that underlay both the Henrician break with Rome in 1534 and the Elizabethan Settlement of 1559, yet this tension was not brought to surface of Tudor political debate until the latter part of Elizabeth I's reign. What brought the issue to the fore was the controversy between the puritans who opposed Archbishop John Whitgift's subscription campaign and the 'conformists' who sided with Whitgift's demand for order and congruity in the young Church of England. Part of this controversy was carried out in a literary battle between one of Whitgift's proteges, civil lawyer and high commissioner Richard Cosin, and puritan common lawyer James Morice. The debate focused on the legality of the High Commission's use of the ex officio oath and eventually came to hinge on the question of Elizabeth's authority to empower that commission to exact the oath by virtue of her leners patent. If the ex officio oath was strictly against the statutes and common laws of the realm, was the queen authorised to direct the commission to exact the oath anyway - over and above the law? To answer yes, as Cosin did, was to declare that the queen's royal supremacy was imperial and that her ecclesiastical polity was essentially theocratic. To answer no, as did Morice, was to assert that there were certain things that the queen could not do - namely that she was not empowered to direct the High Commission to contravene statute law, even in the name of ordering and reforming the church. Cosin's legal arguments for the imperial supremacy of the monarch were powerful, but his writings were steeped in a form of political rhetoric that was quickly coming into fashion in the late sixteenth century: the 'language of state'. The language of state was essentially an abandonment of the classical-humanist vocabulary of 'counseling the prince' for the sake of 'virtuous government' in pursuit of a 'happy republic'. This new political language used by Cosin III and other conformists justified itself on the premise that the state was so thoroughly endangered by sedition and instability that an urgent corrective was needed: not wise or virtuous counsel but strict obedience to the laws dut preserved civil and religious authority. With the threat of presbyterianism at the doorstep of the English Church, Cosin - protected and encouraged by d1e powerful Whitgift - was free to employ both his legal and his rhetorical skills in an effort to reinvigorate the English clergy by enhancing ilieir jurisdictional status over ilie laity. By ilie time James VI and I began his systematic revitalisation of ilie clerical estate in 1604, ilie vocabulary iliat would justify it had already been created. The influence of Cosin demonstrably permeated the early years of d1e Stuart Church suggesting dut Cosin might provide a link between d1e vague uncertainties of the Elizabethan Settlement and the stark realities of the Caroline Church. IV Preface This thesis is dedicated to my wife, Jane, who loved me enough to marry me and come to Scotland while I finished my Ph.D course. Hopefully, this final product of my research will adequately reward her patience with me. I would also like to thank my twO colleagues, Stephen Alford and John Cramsie, for their dose companionship and helpful advice throughout our common trials. Acknowledgements also are due to Drs. Brown Patterson, Andrew Pettegree, and Roger Mason for reading various drafts of my work and offering their insights and suggestions. The greatest thanks go to my supervisor, Professor John Guy. Besides being Head of the School of Modern History and International Relations my first year and Provost of St. Leonard's College the last two, he somehow managed to see each of his Ph.D. students at least once every two weeks, often for an extended sitting, giving a new definition to tlle term 'attentive supervision'. His unfailing confidence in my project, timely (and extensive) advice, and regular treatment of all his research students and staff as honoured friends I will not soon forget. All of my research exists primarily in electro-magnetic form on a Macintosh PowerBook 160 which has served me flawlessly tllese three years, and the thesis was formatted using the indomitable Microsoft Word. Thanks to Apple Computer and Microsoft which facilitate massive powers of organisation and information retrieval, tlle study and writing of history can remain the art it should be, rather than being relegated to the science of sorting index cards and collating written notes into file boxes by hand. v Table of Con ten ts Abbreviations .......................................................................................................................... vi Introduction ............................................................................................................................ 1 Chapter 1- Richard Cosin and James Morice ........................................................................ 15 Chapter 2- Ex officio procedure and James Morice's A briefe treatise ofoathes ......................... 43 Chapter 3- Richard Cosin's Apologie, Pan I ........................................................................... 73 Chapter 4- Richard Cosin's Apologie, Pan 11.: ...................................................................... 106 Chapter 5- Richard Cosin's Apologie, Pan III ...................................................................... 137 Chapter 6- James Morice's 'A just and necessarie defence' ................................................... 169 Chapter 7- The resolution of the controversy ...................................................................... 200 Chapter 8- Richard Cosin and the 1590s ............................................................................ 228 Conclusion .......................................................................................................................... 257 Appendices .......................................................................................................................... 273 Bibliography ........................................................................................................................ 281 VI Abbreviations APC Acts ofthe privy council BL British Library CPR Calendar ofpatent rolls DNB Dictionary ofnational biography HMC Historical Manuscripts Commission LPL Lambeth Palace Library OED Oxford English dictionary SR Statutes ofthe realm Introduction I mroduction From the perspective oflate Elizabethan England the Henrician break with Rome in the 1530s seemed like a clean sweep: a new theory of kingship both secular and theocratic was secured, the church was freed from the control of foreign powers, and there was a newfound sense that England was and always had been an empire in its own right.

    The Early Elizabethan Polity. Stephen Alford. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1998. xii + 271 pp. Though there has been a recent surge of interest from Hollywood regarding the life, times and events of the reign of England's first Elizabeth, from the excellent whimsical romance of "Shakespeare in Love" to the abominable and inaccurate "Elizabeth I", scholarly attentions paid to Elizabeth and her reign have been scant in most recent years. Indeed, the early years of the Elizabethan era have seen perhaps the least new scholarly activity as the new millennium approaches: the standard work on the formative years of the reign remains Wallace MacCaffrey's The Shaping of the Elizabethan Regime, published in 1967, and the standard biography of her Chief Minister, William Cecil, remains Conyers Read's 1955 work, Mr. Secretary Cecil and Queen Elizabeth, a work which also reinforced the traditional views of a Council rent by faction and Elizabeth as 'Gloriana', playing the factions off one another like a master violinist or puppeteer to gain "harmonious cooperation" within her realm, first proposed in this century by J.E. Neale's 1934 work. Queen Elizabeth.^ Even the standard revisionist views of Elizabeth and of her role in governance, Neville Williams' Elizabeth the First: Queen ofEngland, and Christopher Haigh's Elizabeth I, were published in 1968 and 1988, respectively.'^ Stephen Alford's work.

    “Singing by Course” and the Politics of Worship in the Church of England, c1560–1640 By James Campbell Nelson Apgar A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair Professor James Davies Professor Diego Pirillo Spring 2018 Abstract “Singing by Course” and the Politics of Worship in the Church of England, c1560–1640 by James Campbell Nelson Apgar Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Davitt Moroney, Chair “Singing by course” was both a product of and a rhetorical tool within the religious discourses of post-Reformation England. Attached to a variety of ostensibly distinct practices, from choirs singing alternatim to congregations praying responsively, it was used to advance a variety of partisan agendas regarding performance and sound within the services of the English Church. This dissertation examines discourses of public worship that were conducted around and through “singing by course,” treating it as a linguistic and conceptual node within broader networks of contemporary religious debate. I thus attend less to the history of the vocal practices to which “by course” and similar descriptions were applied than to the polemical dynamics of these applications. Discussions of these terms and practices slipped both horizontally, to other matters of ritual practice, and vertically, to larger topics or frameworks such as the nature of the Christian Church, the production of piety, and the roles of sound and performance in corporate prayer. Through consideration of these issues, “singing by course” emerges as a rhetorical, political, and theological construction, one that circulated according to changing historical conditions and to the interests of various ecclesiastical constituencies.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again - beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

At the beginning of the reign, Protestant and Catholic controversialists in their publications concentrated upon whether the English Church could be considered to be a true Church; after the State began prosecuting seminary priests and their lay protectors for treason, the debate moved on to whether Catholics were being put to death exclusively for a political crime or sacrificing their lives solely for their faith.

    The Holy Eucharist with The Ordination and Consecration of Morris King Thompson, Jr. As a Bishop in the Church of God and Eleventh Bishop of Louisiana Saturday, May 8, 2010 10:00 AM Christ Church Cathedral New Orleans, Louisiana The People of God and Their Bishop In Christianity’s early centuries, bishops presided over urban churches, functioning as pastors to the Christians of their city and the surrounding countryside. Everyone came into the city on Sunday to participate in the urban liturgy as presided over by the local bishop. These bishops were also our chief theologians, reflecting on the faith in the context of their people’s lives and experiences. It was not until between the eleventh and thirteenth centuries that the parish priest became the usual person to preside over the Eucharistic assembly. The Greek word episcopacy (επισϰοπή) provides the origin of the word “episcopal.” In Greek, the word is related to the idea of visitation, specifically a divine revelation. It came to mean “overseer.” In English, the word means “of or relating to bishops.” In our scriptures, “overseer” was used somewhat interchangeably with the word “elder” (πϱϵσβυτέϱουϛ, presbyteros, from which comes the word priest), for one who leads the fledgling Christian community and holds to sound doctrine despite the danger presented by false teachers (see I Timothy 3:1-7, II Timothy 1:6-10, Titus 1:5-9 and I Peter 5:1-11). The images of a bishop in our Book of Common Prayer are derived from this history. As you will hear in this ordination liturgy, the bishop is understood to be our chief priest and presider of the diocese as well as its chief pastor.
