Book Good and Proper Men

Download or read book Good and Proper Men written by Nigel Scotland and published by James Clarke Company. This book was released on 2000 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries dioceses were large and bishops few and far between. The majority of their number were high churchmen who had strong connections with the aristocracy. They necessarily spent a good deal of their time in London attending to Parliamentary business. Bishops such as Kaye of Lincoln, Blomfield of Chester, and Monk of Gloucester were prominent members of the Ecclesiastical Commission whose concerns further kept them from their dioceses. Additionally, Kaye and Monk came from academic backgrounds. The result of all this was that bishops were rarely seen in their dioceses except perhaps for the odd visitation or round of perfunctory confirmation services and had little time to grapple with the problems of industrial society. Prompted by reforming figures such as John Bird Sumner and Samuel Wilberforce in the early Victorian years, some attempts were made to reform the role and image of the episcopate. No general widespread change was observable, however, until Palmerston became Prime Minister in 1855. During his ten years in office he appointed bishops to nineteen English sees, and when he died more than half of the bishops in England were his appointees. In his first ministry the majority of his appointees were evangelicals whose selection owed much to the influence of his stepson-in-law, Lord Shaftesbury. In his second ministry, when Gladstone joined the government, Palmerston elevated both evangelicals and high churchmen to the bench. Significantly, although most of Palmerston's prelates had achieved academic distinctions they also came to office with a wealth of parochial experience. They were predominantly pastors of the people rather than distant lordly prelates. They concerned themselves with reforming their dioceses by reviving the role of Archdeacon and extending the number of Rural Deaneries. They gave themselves to the building of churches and schools as well as the promotion of teacher education. They promoted missions and encouraged the use of laymen and laywomen in the parishes. They demonstrated a particular concern for their clergy, raising the standard of ordination examinations, giving advice on preaching and pastoral work, and doing their best to raise the level of stipends. These aspects together with their battles over ritualism, their theology, and their work in Parliament are examined in detail in Nigel Scotland's wide-ranging study. He concludes by arguing that Palmerston's prelates brought about a significant change in the English episcopate.

Book John Henry Newman

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How is Kenneth Starr's extraordinary term as independent counsel to be understood? Was he a partisan warrior out to get the Clintons, or a saviour of the Republic? An unstoppable menace, an unethical lawyer, or a sex-obsessed Puritan striving to enforce a right-wing social morality? This volume is designed to offer an evaluation and critique of Starr's tenure as independent counsel. Relying on lengthy, revealing interviews with Starr and many other players in Clinton-era Washington, Washington Post journalist Benjamin Wittes arrives at an understanding of Starr and the part he played in one of American history's most enthralling public sagas. Wittes offers a portrait of a decent man who fundamentally misconstrued his function under the independent counsel law. Starr took his task to be ferreting out and reporting the truth about official misconduct, a well-intentioned but nevertheless misguided distortion of the law, Wittes argues. At key moments throughout Starr's probe - from the decision to reinvestigate the death of Vincent Foster, to the repeated prosecutions of Susan McDougal and Webster Hubbell to the failure to secure Monica Lewinsky's testimony quickly - the prosecutor avoided the most sensible prosecutorial course, fearing that it would compromise the larger search for truth. This approach not only delayed investigations enormously, but it gave Starr the appearance of partisan zealotry and an almost maniacal determination to prosecute the president. Wittes provides in this account of Starr's term a reinterpretation of the man, his performance, and the controversial events that surrounded the impeachment of President Clinton.
