The Office Of An English Bishop

""The Office of an English Bishop in the First Half of the Fourteenth Century"" is a historical book written by Edith Katherine Lyle and published in 1903. The book explores the role and responsibilities of an English bishop during the early 14th century, examining the daily duties, administrative tasks, and social and religious obligations that were expected of them. Through an in-depth analysis of primary sources, including manuscripts, charters, and registers, Lyle provides a detailed portrait of the life and work of a bishop during this period. The book covers a range of topics, including the bishop's relationship with the king and other secular authorities, their involvement in the legal system, their role in the church hierarchy, and their responsibilities for pastoral care and education. Lyle's work is a valuable resource for scholars and students of medieval history, as well as anyone interested in the history of the Church of England and the role of bishops in medieval society.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
