Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a rigorous analysis of several judgments of the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council in the latter half of the 19th century, which ruled on the legality of certain practices and vestments used within the Church of England at the time. The author, a staunch traditionalist within the Church, highlights the profound impact these judgments had on the development of ritualism within the Church, and argues that they were poorly reasoned in terms of both ecclesiastical law and history. The author's research challenges the historical foundations upon which the Ecclesiastical Courts based their misjudgements and documents the subsequent deleterious effects on the Church through the forced abandonment of many ancient and beautiful Catholic customs and practices. An essential resource for those seeking to understand the history of the Church, the role of the Privy Council, ecclesiastical law, or the Oxford Movement.
