- W2268157216 abstract "A study of the relationship between the people of Gloucestershire and the Churchof England diocese of Gloucester under two bishops, Charles John Ellicott and EdgarCharles Sumner Gibson who presided over a mainly rural diocese, predominantly ofsmall parishes with populations under 2,000.Drawing largely on reports and statistics from individual parishes, the studyrecalls an era in which the class structure was a dominant factor. The framework of thediocese, with its small villages, many of them presided over by a squire, helped toperpetuate a quasi-feudal system which made sharp distinctions between leaders and led.It is shown how for most of this period Church leaders deliberately chose to allythemselves with the power and influence of the wealthy and cultured levels of society andostensibly to further their interests. The consequence was that they failed to understandand alienated a large proportion of the lower orders, who were effectively excluded fromany involvement in the Church's affairs.Both bishops over-estimated the influence of the Church on the generalpopulation but with the twentieth century came the realisation that the working man andwomen of all classes had qualities which could be adapted to the Church's service and awider lay involvement was strongly encouraged. The Great War proved to be a majorcatalyst, both in breaking up class barriers and in confirming the estrangement of themasses from the Church and its message. Throughout the period, the Church's efficiencywas impaired by having to operate through an archaic parochial system in which a largeproportion of rural priests were considered by their bishops to display a high level oflethargy.Published work on this topic has hitherto been confined to some of the majorindustrial cities. This study offers an insight into an area of the country and at a periodwhich has not previously received much attention." @default.
