The eighteenth-century bishops of the Church of England and its
sister communions had immense status and authority in both secular
society and the Church. They fully merit fresh examination in the
light of recent scholarship, and in this volume leading experts
offer a comprehensive survey and assessment of all things episcopal
between the 'Glorious Revolution' of 1688 and the early
nineteenth-century. These were centuries when the Anglican Church
enjoyed exclusive establishment privileges across the British Isles
(apart from Scotland). The essays collected here consider the
appointment and promotion of bishops, as well as their duties
towards the monarch and in Parliament. All were expected to display
administrative skills, some were scholarly, others were interested
in the fine arts, most had wives and families. All of these themes
are discussed, and Wales, Ireland, Scotland and the American
colonies receive specific examination.
