The Case Of Conscience Solved; Or, Catholic Emancipation Proved To Be Compatible With The Coronation Oath, In A Letter From A Casuist J. Milner. By J. Milner. John Milner, a bishop, argues in this polemical tract that Catholic emancipation can be reconciled with the Coronation Oath. Presented as a letter to a political opponent, the work surveys the oath’s history from the Norman Conquest to the present and contends that promissory oaths are not absolute barriers to reform when justified by public welfare. It includes Preface to the Second Edition, a Postscript and Supplement addressing criticisms (notably by Reeves and Le Mesurier), and an Appendix defending Catholic loyalty, detailing religious toleration under successive administrations and the legal avenues for emancipation. Milner maintains Parliament may interpret or alter the oath, as circumstances require, and argues that Catholic civil rights need not threaten the established Church. The volume engages themes of oaths, canon law, and the ethics of political obligation.
