Synopsis

This detailed and well-researched book examines the role of the Church of England in determining the question of who is entitled to receive a Christian burial. The author, who holds the position of Archdeacon of Sarum, grounds their arguments in extensive research drawn from Biblical, historical, and legal sources. They provide a detailed overview of legal decisions on this matter, exploring how the definition of "unbaptized" affects burial practices in the Church of England. Of particular interest is their examination of the historical backdrop of these decisions, providing an in-depth understanding of how the Church's practices have evolved over time. Engaging and well-argued, this book convincingly demonstrates the author's extensive knowledge of ecclesiastical law and practice.
