James Garbett

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

James Garbett (1802-1879) was a British academic and Anglican cleric who became the Archdeacon of Chichester.^[1]

He was a Fellow of Brasenose College, Oxford.^[2] He was an Evangelical and an opponent of the Oxford Movement.^[3]

He was the anti-Tractarian candidate in the election of the Professor of Poetry in 1841/2. The 'Oxford Movement' candidate to replace John Keble in that position was Isaac Williams. Slender as his credentials were for the post, Garbett won, in a politicised campaign run by Ashurst Turner Gilbert, Principal of Brasenose.^[4]

He was appointed Archdeacon of Chichester in 1851 and served until 1879.

In his book Diocesan Synods and Convocation he argued for the abolition of synods.^[5]

↑ From 1825 until 1836
