Епархиальный епископ в Церкви Англии.
Diocesan bishop in the Church of England
Епископ Бат и Уэллс возглавляет епархию Церкви Англии Бат и Уэллс в провинции Кентербери в Англии. Нынешняя епархия охватывает большую часть (церемониального) графства Сомерсет и небольшую территорию Дорсета. Епископская резиденция расположена в кафедральном соборе Святого Андрея в городе Уэллс, Сомерсет. Епископ – один из двух (второй – епископ Дарема), сопровождающих монарха на коронации. Резиденцией епископа является дворец в Уэллсе. В конце 2013 года церковные комиссары объявили о покупке Старой ректории – здания II категории наследия в Кроскомбе – для резиденции епископа. Однако это решение вызвало широкое несогласие, включая несогласие епархии, и в мае 2014 года было отменено комитетом Совета архиепископов.
The Bishop of Bath and Wells heads the Church of England Diocese of Bath and Wells in the Province of Canterbury in England. The present diocese covers the overwhelmingly greater part of the (ceremonial) county of Somerset and a small area of Dorset. The Episcopal seat is located in the Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew in the city of Wells in Somerset. The bishop is one of two (the other is the Bishop of Durham) who escort the sovereign at the coronation. The Bishop's residence is The Palace, Wells. In late 2013 the Church Commissioners announced that they were purchasing the Old Rectory, a Grade II listed building in Croscombe for the Bishop's residence. However this decision was widely opposed, including by the Diocese, and in May 2014 was overturned by a committee of the Archbishops' Council.
История
Сомерсет первоначально находился под властью епископа Шерборна, но Уэллс стал резиденцией собственного епископа Уэллса с 909 года. Король Вильгельм Рыжий даровал Бат королевскому врачу Джону Турскому, епископу Уэллса и аббату Бата, которому было разрешено перенести свою епископскую резиденцию для Сомерсета из Уэллса в Бат в 1090 году, тем самым став первым епископом Бата. Он разработал проект и начал строительство гораздо большей церкви в качестве своего собора, к которой был пристроен приорат, а рядом с ним – епископский дворец. В 1197 году епископ Саварик Фицгельдевин официально перенес свою резиденцию в аббатство Гластонбери с одобрения папы Целестина III. Однако монахи там не приняли своего нового епископа Гластонбери, и титул епископа Бата и Гластонбери использовался до тех пор, пока претензии Гластонбери не были оставлены в 1219 году. Его преемник, Джоселин из Уэллса, затем вернулся в Бат, вновь под титулом епископа Бата. Официальным епископским титулом стал епископ Бата и Уэллса согласно папскому решению от 3 января 1245 года. К XV веку аббатство Бат пришло в упадок. Оливер Кинг, епископ Бата и Уэллса, решил в 1500 году восстановить его в меньшем масштабе. Новая аббатская церковь была завершена всего за несколько лет до роспуска Батского приората в 1539 году. Затем Генрих VIII посчитал эту новую церковь ненужной и предложил ее жителям Бата для создания их приходской церкви; но они не выкупили ее, и ее лишили витражей и свинца. Последний епископ, находившийся в общении с Римом, был лишен сана в 1559 году, но преемственность епископов сохраняется и по сей день. Епархия и епископство сегодня являются частью Англиканского содружества.
Somerset originally came under the authority of the Bishop of Sherborne, but Wells became the seat of its own Bishop of Wells from 909. King William Rufus granted Bath to a royal physician, John of Tours, Bishop of Wells and Abbot of Bath, who was permitted to move his episcopal seat for Somerset from Wells to Bath in 1090, thereby becoming the first Bishop of Bath. He planned and began a much larger church as his cathedral, to which was attached a priory, with the bishop's palace beside it. In 1197 Bishop Savaric FitzGeldewin officially moved his seat to Glastonbury Abbey with the approval of Pope Celestine III. However, the monks there would not accept their new Bishop of Glastonbury and the title of Bishop of Bath and Glastonbury was used until the Glastonbury claim was abandoned in 1219. His successor, Jocelin of Wells, then returned to Bath, again under the title, Bishop of Bath. The official episcopal title became Bishop of Bath and Wells under a Papal ruling of 3 January 1245. By the 15th century Bath Abbey was badly dilapidated. Oliver King, Bishop of Bath and Wells, decided in 1500 to rebuild it on a smaller scale. The new abbey church was completed just a few years before Bath Priory was dissolved in 1539. Then Henry VIII considered this new church redundant, and it was offered to the people of Bath to form their parish church; but they did not buy it, and it was stripped of its glass and lead. The last bishop in communion with Rome was deprived in 1559 but the succession of bishops has continued to the present day. The diocese and the episcopate are today part of the Anglican Communion.
