A propos de cet article

Print on Demand. This book, published in 1715, functions as a response to the disorderly conduct and inflammatory rhetoric of the clergy during the early 18th century. The author, sympathetic to the Church of England, nevertheless decries the behavior of certain clergymen whose political sermons and moral failings represent a threat to the government and to the church itself. The author argues that such behavior is a departure from the historical role of the church, in which the clergy focused on apolitical spiritual matters. Quoting extensively from relevant statutes, the author provides historical context to support the position that the supremacy of the Crown over the church, including its clergy, is a matter of law and has been consistently affirmed by historical precedent. The book includes the text of a royal decree issued by King George I, directing the clergy to abide by certain rules regarding the content of their sermons, and to refrain from meddling in matters of state. The decree also reminds the clergy of their obligation to support the King's supremacy and to avoid the use of offensive language. The author concludes by reflecting on why the government has seen fit to issue such a decree, and the broader implications this has for the relationship between the state and the church. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
