Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rise and Fall of the High Commission The judicial and administrative history of an ecclesiastical court abolished nearly three hundred years ago would seem, to most readers, a subject too technical and too remote from the great issues, whose breadth gives to institutional history its vitality and permanent interest, to make the results attained of value to any but a few specialists. Yet the intimate connexion of the High Commission's history with the growth of the nonconformists, with their struggle to find a place in the English Church, and with their determination to leave it; the important part in the history of the institution played by Thomas Cromwell, Richard Bancroft, Sir Edward Coke, William Laud, and other notable men of the period; the insistence of the Puritans and lawyers in 1640 that the illegality of the Commission, as well as its brutality, was one of the chief causes of the Revolution of 1640;the vital importance of a knowledge of the controversy between the common lawyers and the High Commissioners to a proper understanding of the development and meaning of the constitutional issues so prominent during the Stuart period, - all impart a significant and broad interest to the study of the Commissions history, and make any sound conclusions about it of real value to the general student and even to the casual reader of English history.

Download or read book Godly Kingship in Restoration England written by Jacqueline Rose and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The position of English monarchs as supreme governors of the Church of England profoundly affected early modern politics and religion. This innovative book explores how tensions in church-state relations created by Henry VIII's Reformation continued to influence relationships between the crown, Parliament and common law during the Restoration, a distinct phase in England's 'long Reformation'. Debates about the powers of kings and parliaments, the treatment of Dissenters and emerging concepts of toleration were viewed through a Reformation prism where legitimacy depended on godly status. This book discusses how the institutional, legal and ideological framework of supremacy perpetuated the language of godly kingship after 1660 and how supremacy was complicated by the ambivalent Tudor legacy. It was manipulated by not only Anglicans, but also tolerant kings and intolerant parliaments, Catholics, Dissenters and radicals like Thomas Hobbes. Invented to uphold the religious and political establishments, supremacy paradoxically ended up subverting them.
Download or read book The High Court of Delegates written by G. I. O. Duncan and published by CUP Archive. This book was released on 1971-07-02 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book, a study of the principal appellate court in the English civil law hierarchy, the High Court of Delegates, examines the history, jurisdiction, procedure, personnel and records of the court from the mid-sixteenth century until its abolition in 1832. In an introductory historical survey, the author considers the earlier provisions for civil law appeal, the circumstances surrounding the creation of the Court of Delegates, and its history from the mid-sixteenth century until 1832. After a general discussion of the jurisdiction of the court, Dr Duncan goes on to a detailed discussion of several jurisdictional problems: in particular he deals with the relationship between the Court of Delegates and certain other Judicial bodies, and with the extent of the Court's original jurisdiction. He devotes two chapters to commissions of delegacy and commissions of review, analysing the rules which governed the right of a party to appeal to the Court of Delegates, and also to appeal from a decision of that Court. The central portion of the book is devoted to procedure: the various stages through which an appeal passed are set out in detail, and particular attention is paid to the taking of evidence.
Download or read book The Royal Supremacy in the Elizabethan Church written by Claire Cross and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-07-25 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1969 this book considers the theoretical extent of the royal supremacy in the Elizabethan church and examines how far this supremacy was effective in practice. The first part considers the reactions of Catholics and of moderate and more enthusiastic Protestants, both clerical and lay, to a lay head of the English church and the second part investigates the limits of the queen’s authority. The documents, which range from the formal Acts of Supremacy and Uniformity to the letters of individual gentlemen who were guiding their local congregations, reflect the discrepancy between theory and practice. No previous book of this nature tried to determine the limits of Queen Elizabeth I’s powers in the localities in quite this way.
