Religious leadership in a changing society -- Bishop and church : changing times and institutions -- Changing persons, changing roles -- Suffragan and diocesan bishops -- The place of clergy wives : a 'shared ministry'? -- Growing up clerical -- Clergy children and religious identity -- Clergy children, work and professional identity -- Conclusions
Christianity as a cultural force, whether rising or falling, has seldom been analyzed through the actual processes by which tradition is transmitted, modified, embraced or rejected. This book achieves that end through a study of bishops of the Church of England, their wives and their children, to show how values fostered in the vicarage and palace shape family, work and civic life in a supposedly secular age
