Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches of English Church History in South Africa: From 1795 to 1848 When the Cape capitulated to the English arms in September, 1795, it was agreed that the privileges of the Dutch Reformed Church should be preserved, and during the seven years of occupation that body continued to be called the Established Church. The only services of the English Church were held, probably in the Castle, by the Military Chaplains, but no traces of any registers kept at that time are to be found. The Governor was the Ordinary, and his consent was necessary to marriages, and even to baptisms - fat least in the case of adults. The first clergyman with whose name we meet is the Rev. J. E. Attwood, Chaplain of h.m.s. Stately, and one of his earliest ministerial acts in the settlement led to a legal controversy with the authorities of the Dutch Church. At that time all persons about to be married were obliged to appear before a Lay Matrimonial Court in Capetown to prove that there were no legal impediments to the marriage. On the 2nd October, 1795, Mr. Attwood solemnized a marriage without this preliminary form being Observed. When the bridegroom applied to the Dutch Church to have his marriage registered, he was refused on the ground that the marriage was illegal. He then petitioned the Governor.

Download or read book Anglican Ritualism in Colonial South Africa written by Andrew-John Bethke and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the phenomenon sometimes referred to as “ritualism” in the Anglican tradition. The use of gestures, vestments, lighted candles, incense and other rituals associated with Anglicanism’s Roman Catholic past has formed a part of worship patterns since the denomination’s birth in the sixteenth century. However, due to the suspicion with which the majority of English people viewed Roman Catholicism, such practices never entered the mainstream. In the middle of the nineteenth century, a new wave of ritual practice swept through Anglicanism, not only in England, but across the world. While this wave was held in great suspicion by most churchgoers at first, by the turn of the nineteenth century, it had begun to influence the status quo, such that weekly Communion services, vestments and candles now form a normal part of regular Anglican worship. This book provides an introduction to ritualism’s origins in Anglicanism, and then examines how this movement took root in colonial South Africa. It finds that, after a period of fairly robust antagonism towards ritualism, a general movement towards ritualist practices began to emerge which characterised local Anglicanism’s ethos. Those who are interested in church history, the colonial impact of the British Empire, ritual studies, or the tensions between class systems will find this book stimulating.
