Talk by Margaret Bottrall
It is three hundred years since the publication of ' A Priest to the Temple,' better known by its sub-titie ' The Country Parson, his Character and Rule of Holy Life.' Margaret Bottrall discusses the personality that emerges from the book and the light that it throws both on the Anglican temper and tradition and on the seventeenth-century conception of the ideal ' country parson.'
