History

[edit]

Roman

[edit]
See also:Early centers of Christianity § Roman Britain

There was a bishop inEboracum (Roman York) from very early times; during the Middle Ages, it was thought to have been one of the dioceses established by thelegendaryKing Lucius. Bishops of York are known to have been present at the councils ofArles (Eborius) andNicaea (unnamed). However, this early Christian community was laterdestroyed by the pagan Anglo-Saxons and there is no direct succession from these bishops to the post-Augustinian ones.

Middle Ages

[edit]

TheCatholic diocese was refounded byPaulinus (a member ofAugustine's mission) in the 7th century. Notable among these early bishops isWilfrid. These early bishops of York acted as diocesan rather than archdiocesan prelates until the time ofEcgbert of York,[a] who received thepallium fromPope Gregory III in 735 and established metropolitan rights in the north. Until the Danish invasion the archbishops of Canterbury occasionally exercised authority, and it was not until theNorman Conquest that the archbishops of York asserted their complete independence.

At the time of the Norman invasion York had jurisdiction overWorcester,Lichfield, andLincoln, as well as claiming the dioceses in the Northern Isles andScotland which were in fact independent.[4] But the first three sees just mentioned were taken from York in 1072. In 1154 the suffragan sees of theIsle of Man andOrkney were transferred to the Norwegianarchbishop of Nidaros (today's Trondheim), and in 1188 York finally accepted it had no authority over all of the Scottish dioceses exceptWhithorn, so that only the dioceses ofWhithorn,Durham, andCarlisle remained to the archbishops as suffragan sees. Of these, Durham was practically independent, for thepalatine bishops of that see were little short of sovereigns in their own jurisdiction. Sodor and Man were returned to York during the 14th century, to compensate for the loss of Whithorn to the Scottish Church.

Several of the archbishops of York held the ministerial office ofLord Chancellor of England and played some parts in affairs of state. AsPeter Heylyn (1600–1662) wrote: "This see has yielded to the Church eight saints, to the Church of Rome three cardinals, to the realm of England twelve Lord Chancellors and twoLord Treasurers, and to the north of England twoLord Presidents." The bishopric's role was also complicated bycontinued conflict over primacy with the see of Canterbury.

English Reformation

[edit]

At the time of theEnglish Reformation, York possessed three suffragan sees, Durham, Carlisle, and Sodor and Man, to which during the brief space ofQueen Mary I's reign (1553–1558) may be added the Diocese of Chester, founded byHenry VIII, but subsequently recognised by the Pope.

Until the mid 1530s (and from 1553 to 1558) the bishops and archbishops were Catholics in communion with thepope in Rome. This is no longer the case, as the archbishop of York, together with the rest of theChurch of England, is a member of theAnglican Communion.

Walter de Grey purchasedYork Place as his London residence, which after the fall ofCardinalThomas Wolsey, was renamed thePalace of Whitehall.

Styles and privileges

[edit]
"Primate of England" redirects here. For the Primate of All England, seeArchbishop of Canterbury.

The archbishop of York is anex officio member of the House of Lords and is styled Primate of England (whereas the archbishop of Canterbury is the Primate of All England); he is referred to as "The Most Reverend", retired archbishops are styled as "The Right Reverend". As archbishops are, by convention, appointed to thePrivy Council they may, therefore, also use the style of "The Right Honourable" for life (unless they are later removed from the council). In debates in the House of Lords, the archbishop is referred to as "The Most Reverend Primate, the archbishop of York". "The Right Honourable" is not used in this instance. He may also be formally addressed as "Your Grace"—or, more often these days, simply as "archbishop", or "Father".

The surname of the archbishop of York is not always used in formal documents; often only the first name and see are mentioned. The archbishop is legally entitled to sign his name as "Ebor" (from theLatin for York). The right to use a title as a legal signature is only permitted to bishops,peers of the Realm and peers by courtesy.[citation needed] The current archbishop of York usually signs as "+Stephen Ebor".

In theEnglish and Welsh order of precedence, the archbishop of York is ranked above all individuals in the realm, with the exception of the sovereign and members of theroyal family, the archbishop of Canterbury and thelord chancellor.[5] Immediately below him is theprime minister and then thelord president of the council.

Present

[edit]

The archbishop of York is themetropolitan bishop of theprovince of York and is the junior of the two archbishops of the Church of England after the archbishop of Canterbury.[6] The See is currently occupied byStephen Cottrell since 9 July 2020.

The Province of York includes 10 Anglican dioceses inNorthern England:Blackburn,Carlisle,Chester,Durham,Liverpool,Manchester,Newcastle,Sheffield,Leeds, andYork, as well as 2 other dioceses:Southwell and Nottingham in theMidlands andSodor and Man covering theIsle of Man.

Archbishops who became peers

[edit]

From 1660 to 1900, all the archbishops of York died in office or were translated to Canterbury and died in that office.

William Maclagan was the first to voluntarily resign his office in 1908, two years before his death. All of his successors who were not translated to Canterbury have also resigned their office before death, and (like all archbishops of Canterbury) have been offered a peerage upon resignation.[d]

Footnotes

[edit]
  1. ^Paulinus was appointed archbishop of York byPope Honorius I in 634, but the appointment was not effective since it occurred after Paulinus had fled from York and become bishop of Rochester.[3]
  2. ^ Although Wilfrid established a monastic community in Selsey, there are no early sources that describe him as bishop of the South Saxons. Wilfrid is credited with beingfirst bishop of the South Saxons, byWilliam of Malmesbury andFlorence of Worcester, also on some laterEcclesiastical lists, but he was still technically bishop of York when in charge ofSelsey Abbey. Therefore, as Sussex had been annexed by Wessex then Selsey probably would have been subject to the Diocese of the West Saxons, when Wilfrid was there.[8]
  3. ^The second edition of theHandbook of British Chronology listedÆthelric to have been archbishop of York from 1041 to 1042,[9] but in the third edition he is no longer listed to have been archbishop.[10]
  4. ^William Temple died in office (as the archbishop of Canterbury), andCyril Garbett died before his hereditary peerage could be created.
