Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Lives of the Archbishops of Canterbury, Vol. 3 Even after these curtailments, the chapters will perhaps be considered too long. In the Notes, a brief account has been given of the suffragans of both provinces, who sustained a distinguished part in public affairs, or were immediately connected with the history of the Primates. It will be seen that they were not, as is sometimes supposed, priests who were ambitious of civil appointments for the furtherance of clerical or ecclesiastical objects; they were, too often, lawyers and statesmen, who, regarding their spiritual functions as of secondary importance, accepted high preferments in the Church to obtain the advantages, which result from high station and a large income. They were, many of them, among the most eminent lawyers and statesmen of their own or any other age. When the prospectus of this work was first issued, it was announced, that the history of the Archbishops of Canterbury would be followed by that of the Archbishops of York.
