The Victorian Archbishop of Trebizond, George Errington (1804-1886)
was one of the most prominent figures of nineteenth-century English
Roman Catholicism. He was involved in the resurgence of the English
Catholic Church, and would have achieved the highest offices
himself had not a dispute between him and Cardinal Wiseman led to
his fall from favour in the eyes of Propaganda Fide. He has come to
be regarded as the leader of an 'Old Catholic' party as the
struggle continued for dominance in the period of consolidation
following the restoration of the hierarchy in 1850. An intimate of
Newman, Errington maintained a large correspondence which covers
almost every church controversy of his lifetime. His letters shed
light on subjects which have long since been dormant and in some
cases indicate that the popular interpretations of some affairs are
not as clear-cut as has been argued by others. They also expose the
various factions in the English Catholic Church at the time, and
the slippery nature of the Roman administration. In this
comprehensive work, Serenhedd James explores George Errington's
motives and actions, and analyses the forces that were at play in
the English Catholic Church of the nineteenth century. James
highlights that matters of policy were clouded by issues of
personality, and where politicking, as much as prayer, was an
integral part of its way of life.
