	Francis Atterbury - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Atterbury's treatise, though highly praised by Bishop Gilbert Burnet, was more distinguished for the vigour of his rhetoric than the soundness of his arguments, and the Papists accused him of treason, and of having, by implication, called King James "Judas".
		Atterbury's merits were warmly acknowledged, his advice was respectfully received, and he was, as Bolingbroke had been before him, the prime minister of a king without a kingdom.
		Atterbury's taste in English literature was excellent; and his admiration of genius was so strong that it overpowered even his political and religious antipathies.

		His major enemy was Francis Atterbury, Bishop of Rochester, a prominent High Church spokesman (and, it appears, prolific ghostwriter for other High Church spokesmen).
		Atterbury is said to have written the speech that Henry Sacheverell gave for an unsuccessful defence during his libel trial.
		As a prominent Tory, Atterbury could hardly be called a radical, and his tumultuous stand against what he saw as an angry mob of unthinking Whigs was one of the root causes of the changes that gave us both the modern church and the modern British government.

		With respect to the second category, Justice Chase provided two examples: the banishments of Lord Clarendon in 1667 and of Bishop Francis Atterbury in 1723.
		Atterbury’s trial also illustrates why the majority’s interpretation of the historical examples as premised on the courts’ inability to impose banishment is untenable.
		Parliament’s decision to prosecute Atterbury may have been driven by fear of backlash provoked by a death sentence, for Atterbury enjoyed considerable popularity and sympathy in some circles.

		Born: Michael Angelo Buonarotti, painter, sculptor, and architect, 1474, Chiusi; Francesco Guicciardini, diplomatist, 1482, Florence; Bishop Francis Atterbury, 1662, Milton; Vice-Admiral Sir Charles Napier, 1786, Merchistoun.
		To consider Atterbury as afterwards attached to the service of the so-called Pretender,—wasting bright faculties on the petty intrigues of a mock court, and gradually undergoing the stern correction of Fact and Truth for the illusory political visions to which he had sacrificed so much,—is a reflection not without its pathos, or its lesson.
		A specimen of the dexterous wit of Atterbury in debate is related in connection with the history of the Occasional Conformity and Schism Bills, December 1718.
