Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Archbishops´ Committee on Church State: Report, With Appendices To the Archbishops of Canterbury and York. Your Graces, On July 4, 1913, the Representative Church Council passed with one dissentient the following Resolution: - "That there is in principle no inconsistency between a national recognition of religion and the spiritual independence of the Church, and this Council requests the Archbishops of Canterbury and York to consider the advisability of appointing a Committee to inquire what changes are advisable in order to secure in the relations of Church and State a fuller expression of the spiritual independence of the Church as well as of the national recognition of religion." In deference to this request you appointed us as a Committee, giving us as the terms of our Reference the above Resolution. The Committee has met on twenty-three days, including two sessions of nearly a week each, held in September, 1914, and September, 1915, at Oxford, when the Junior Common Room of Balliol College was kindly lent to us by the authorities of that college. One or two personal matters call for brief reference. It was no small gain for a committee entering on a task of such great importance and difficulty to number among its members one of the foremost living English authorities on the law and custom of the constitution. The combination in the late Sir William Anson of devoted churchmanship, wide historical learning, and tried knowledge of public affairs was an asset which could not be easily over-estimated.
