Throughout the nineteenth century the relationship between the
State and the Established Church of England engaged Parliament, the
Church, the courts and - to an increasing degree - the people.
During this period, the spectre of Disestablishment periodically
loomed over these debates, in the cause - as Trollope put it - of
'the renewal of inquiry as to the connection which exists between
the Crown and the Mitre'. As our own twenty-first century gathers
pace, Disestablishment has still not materialised: though a very
different kind of dynamic between Church and State has anyway come
into being in England. Professor Evans here tells the stories of
the controversies which have made such change possible - including
the revival of Convocation, the Church's own parliament - as well
as the many memorable characters involved. The author's lively
narrative includes much valuable material about key areas of
ecclesiastical law that is of relevance to the future Church of
England.
