"What authority does a branch of the Christian Church have to depart from unbroken tradition and unilaterally ordain women to the priesthood of the Church ? What are the consequences for the orders of women priests and for ecumenical relations ? These questions are considered in the light of objections to women's ordination and the implications of the Papal Bull `Apostolicae Curae' of 1896 which declared Anglican orders `null and void'." -- back cover.
Contents: Affirming Catholicism -- Books in the Affirming Catholicism series -- About the Author -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- Objections to Women Priests -- Anglican Orders and the Priesting of Women -- Questions -- Bibliography.
Author is a member of the Anglican-Roman Catholic International Commission (ARCIC I). "Fr. Yarnold's essay (in which he speaks as an individual, not as a spokesman for the Commission) on a possible way forward is an interesting and hopeful contribution to that progress towards unity in truth for which Christ prayed".
Imprimatur dated Westminster, 5th March 1977. -- verso of t.-p.
Includes bibliography, p. 16.
"In 1896 Pope Leo XIII in a Bull entitled 'Apostolicae Curae' ... declared that 'ordinations performed according to the Anglican rite have been and are completely null and void' .... Is it possible that Pope Leo was mistaken, so that a later Pope could revoke the Bull ? Or that the situation has changed so much over the last eighty years that the verdict, though correct in 1896, is not longer correct today ? If on the other hand the condemnation must still stand, what hope is there for the future relations between the two Churches ? This pamphlet is one man's attempt not only to explain the past but to explore the future. If the reader wishes to consider other points of view, he will find guidance in the Bibliography". -- p. 3.
Contents divided into sections: Not a new decision -- The origins of Anglican orders -- Leo XIII's judgement -- Defect of form -- Defect of intention -- The underlying reasons -- Forward through reordination ? -- A new assessment ? -- The meaning of 'validity' -- Apostolic succession -- The concept of ministry -- Conclusion -- References -- Bibliography.

"In 1995 a conference was held at General Theological Seminary, New York, in preparation for the centenary of 'Apostolicae Curae', Leo XIII's Apostolic Letter of 1896, which declared that Anglican ordinations were invalid' its papers have been published in the USA in 'Anglican Theological Review (LXXVIII/1) Winter 1996), and in England under the title 'Anglican Orders: Essays on the Centenary of Apostolicae Curae 1896-1996, ed. R.W. Franklin, with a Foreword by H. Montefiore (London 1996). The proposal was made at that conference that the centenary would provide a good occasion for publishing a collection of the 1896 documentation in English translation. The present volume is the realisation of this project". -- Preface.
