课程名称：安立甘传统简介 课程概述：该课程旨在介绍安立甘教会的起源、发展及其当前形态。虽然常有人认为英格兰教会是亨利八世因离婚而起源的，但这种说法过于简化。历史政治因素确实影响重大，包括罗马教廷对离婚的潜在许可，以及亨利通过掠夺修道院获得财富的行动。然而，智识潮流（大学网络和游历学者的思想流动）、对教士主义的逐渐拒绝、对中世纪实践如赎罪券出售的批评，以及将圣经翻译成白话语言的推动，都为改革提供了神学支持，最终导致西方基督教的分裂，形成多个神学传统，包括改革宗、再洗礼派、路德宗、单一派及安立甘派。此外，古腾堡印刷术的进步使得书籍、宣传册和插图的批量印刷成为可能，进而促进了这些思想的普及和传播。 在这一智识创新、政治动荡和技术进步的完美风暴中，安立甘教会应运而生。它通过《公祷书》的发展传播其神学、礼仪和伦理，该书被视为了解安立甘神学和生活的便捷手册。正如曾经所说：“想了解安立甘的神学与生活，就读《公祷书》。” 然而，安立甘教会并非仅仅是英格兰的现象。邻近的苏格兰在宗教改革过程中，长时间存在长老会（无主教）与首席主教会（有主教）之间的斗争，直到17世纪末才得以解决。支持斯图亚特王朝（雅各宾派）的首席主教会会使用《公祷书》，并在18世纪发展出自己的礼仪。它们还会祝圣塞缪尔·西伯里成为新美国的主教，此举可能是雅各宾派最后对汉诺威王朝抵抗的体现，最终导致安立甘公教的形成。 此后，公教必须面对共享但不完全相同传统的独立教会如何作为全球实体运作的问题。这引出了关于团结工具的讨论，这些工具如今将安立甘公教联系在一起，但由于公教内部进步派和保守派的不可调和性，正面临越来越大的压力。 未来将会如何？我们不妨看看罗兰·艾伦的反思，他在1912年首次出版时不受欢迎，但越来越显示出可持续的安立甘教会如何在庆祝多样性和更加信任圣灵的指引下生存和繁荣的模型。
The course provides and introduction the Anglican Church, its origins, growth and current shape.Whilst it is common to hear the Church of England described as originating in Henry VIII's wish for a divorce, this is simplistic in the extreme. Certainly, the politics of the era intrude, not least because of the potential for annulments which were granted by Rome, as well as the cash-grab which Henry then executed on monasteries and the like. However, intellectual currents (the university network and its flow of ideas via wandering scholars), the increasing rejection of clericalism, the critique of medieval practices such as the selling of indulgences, and the concomitant push to make Scriptures available in vernacular languages all provided a theological push for reform which would lead to the fracturing of Western Christendom into a number of theological traditions: Reformed, Anabaptist, Lutheran, Unitarian and Anglican. Additionally, the technological advance of the Gutenberg Press which allowed for the mass printing of books, pamphlets and woodcuts enabled the popularisation and dissemination of these ideas.In this perfect storm of intellectual innovation, politics and technological advance, the Anglican church emerges.It spreads its theology, liturgy and ethics through the development of the Book of Common Prayer which provides a neat and accessible handbook. As it used to be said, "If you want to know what Anglican theology and life is like, read the Book of Common Prayer."However, the Anglican church was never an exclusively English phenomenon. Neighbouring Scotland, through the Reformation, would see a tussle between Presbyterians (no bishops) and Episcopalians (yes to Bishops) which would not be resolved until the end of the 17th century. That Episcopalian party , pro- Stuart (Jacobite) would use the Book of Common Prayer and late develop their own liturgy in the 18th century. They would consecrate Samuel Seabury to become a bishop for the new United States of America: an action, possibly the last gasp of Jacobite resistance to the Hanoverians, which would eventuate in the formation of the Anglican Communion.That Communion then has to address the question of how independent churches with shared, but not identical traditions , might function as a global entity. Which leads to a discussion of the Instruments of Communion which hold together the Anglican Communion today, but are increasingly stretched to breaking point by the intractability of both progressives and conservatives within the communion.What lies ahead? Well, we might do much worse than look to the reflections of Roland Allen, whose writings were deeply unpopular on first publication in 1912, but who increasingly seems to offer models of how a sustainable Anglican Church might thrive and flourish by celebrating its diversity and trusting more strongly in the movement of the Holy Spirit.
