Overview
Overview
In the early eighteenth century Joseph Bingham (1668-1723) was a significant figure. Ejected from Oxford in 1695 for heterodox views on the Trinity, he was appointed to Church livings in Hampshire. With use of the Winchester Cathedral library, he wrote Origines Ecclesiasticae which appeared from 1708. His son, Richard went on to publish his father's collected works in ten volumes which were still in print in the nineteenth century. Bingham's works engaged with numerous contemporary debates, including lay baptism, anti-Catholicism, the Union with Scotland, and European Protestantism. This is the first full-length study of Bingham and his works. After service in the Second World War, Leslie William Barnard (1924-2016) graduated from St Catherine's College, Oxford, in 1948 with a degree in Theology. He was ordained in the 1950s and served a number of parishes. He undertook a PhD in Patristic studies at Southampton University, and in 1968 was appointed as a lecturer at the University of Leeds. In retirement, Leslie wrote a series of three biographies of eighteenth century bishops who were, like himself, Patristic scholars: John Potter (1989), Thomas Secker (1998), and Thomas Herring (2005).
