About this title

Synopsis

The Ecclesiastical Statutes At Large, Extracted From The Great Body Of The Statute Law, And Arranged Under Separate Heads by James Thomas Law. This dense reference index maps the body of ecclesiastical law across England, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales, cataloguing statutes, procedures, and institutional practices governing church governance, property, finances, and religious life. It is organized by theme—burials and cemeteries, cathedrals and canons, clergy and chaplaincy, charities and endowments, church-building and parish expansion, tithes, calendar reform, patronage and rights—and by jurisdiction, with notes on authorities, amendments, and the administrative bodies involved. Intended as a navigational tool, the work cross-references related titles and volumes and assembles materials on governance, revenue, and the interaction of church and civil authorities. It covers governance structures, property tenure, tithes, registration and vital statistics, education, ecclesiastical courts, and broader topics such as uniformity of worship, sects, and reform provisions across the British Isles.
