  Richard Hooker   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
Richard Hooker was born in Heavitree, near Exeter in April 1554 and died in Bishopsbourne, Kent on 2 November 1600.
Hooker’s starting-point is to accept unconditionally the disciplinarian premise that the doctrinal tenets and the pastoral aspirations of the Reformation had to be fulfilled in the polity of the Church of England.
Hooker approaches the question of episcopal government by examining the evidence of the Bible and the authority of the early Church fathers, historians and the decrees of the early Councils.

 Richard Hooker (theologian) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hooker was born in Exeter, Devon, and educated at Corpus Christi College, Oxford, where he became a fellow in 1577.
In 1592 Hooker became a canon at Salisbury Cathedral and Rector of the parish of Boscombe in Wiltshire.
Hooker argued that reason and experience (as well as tradition) were important when interpreting the Scriptures, and argued that it was important to recognise that the Bible was written in a particular historical context, in response to specific situations: "Words must be taken according to the matter whereof they are uttered." (Lawes IV.11.7).

 §5. Richard Hooker. XVIII. “Of the Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity”. Vol. 3. Renascence and Reformation. ...
Richard Hooker entered the lists almost a generation after the early puritans; and he did so, not so much as a churchman pleading the cause of ecclesiastical authority, as a representative of humanistic Christianity and of the love of intellectual freedom.
Born in 1553, at Heavitree, Exeter, Richard Hooker came of good, though not noble or wealthy, stock, for his uncle John Hooker was a man of some note and chamberlain of Chichester.
Hooker, it may be remarked that she and her family seem to have belonged to the puritan party and, consequently, were extremely obnoxious to the high church friends of her husband, who seems always to have treated her with respect and to have named her executrix in his will.

Hooker bases his reasoning on principles whicl i If Bacon was the author of The Christian Paradoxes.
The work must rather be regarded as a remonstrance against the narrow ground chosen by the Presbyterians for their basis of attack, Hookers exact position being that a necessity of polity and regiment may be held in all churches without holding any form to be necessary.
One of the corollaries of his principles is his theory of the relation of church and state, according to which, with the qualifications implied in his theory of government, he asserts the royal supremacy in matters of religion, and identifies the church and commonwealth as hut different aspects of the same governmefit.

 Richard Hooker and Homosexuality
When Hooker states that the "end for which and the matter according whereunto God maketh his laws continue always one and the same, his laws also do the like," he is referring to the fact that laws can be changed if their original purpose is fulfilled or no longer holds.
Against these claims, Hooker recognized that the visible Church was composed of sinful human beings, and as a result, he was not as restricted as were the Puritans in applying biblical law.

 Animus: Torrance Kirby, Richard Hooker's Discourse on Natural Law in the Context of the Magisterial Reformation
Hooker adheres to this third use of the law in his insistence upon the necessity of the ethical regeneration of sanctifying righteousness while, at the same time, he continues to uphold the original distinction between the usus civilis and the usus theologicus.
Hooker's appeal to Calvin is intended as a vindication of continuity with the tradition of natural law theory by an authority acceptable to his disciplinarian-puritan critics.
Hooker refers to Aristotle as "the Arch-Philosopher" and "the mirror of humaine wisdom." Lawes I.4.1 (1:70.20) and I.10.4 (1:99.28) For Luther Aristotle is synonymous with reason and philosophy and is often referred to as the "light of nature." WA 7.738.31; 7.739.23; 2.395.19; and 2.363.4.

Hooker's analysis of doubt is the other side of the coin stamped with his well-known stress on the importance of reason in theology.
Hooker's understanding of the authority of reason places him far closer to the Augustinian and Anselmian tradition of "faith seeking understanding" than to the rationalism with which he is sometimes branded.
In Hooker's terms, the church is not an assembly but a society-one in which the attire of ministers is of less importance than participation, a participation he defines as "that mutual inward hold which Christ hath of us and we of him" (V,56.1).

The American concept of religious liberty may be partly traceable to the writings of Richard Hooker, an Anglican theologian who lived from 1554 to 1600.
Hooker's "The Laws of Ecclesiastical Polity" defended state establishment of religion and repression of dissenters.
Paradoxically, Hooker also developed a theory of consent of the governed which the Anglicans brought with them to colonial Virginia and which ultimately influenced the Founding Fathers' support for religious freedom.

 Anglican Theological Review: Richard Hooker and the Construction of Christian Community   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
A new study of Richard Hooker is always a welcome sight for an Anglican: given the centrality Hooker's theology is generally accorded in the Anglican tradition, there is a surprising dearth of studies of it, and this volume therefore holds out the tantalizing hope of fresh perspectives and deeper insights.
In this hope, it largely disappoints the reader interested in Hooker as a theologian, for its essays are chiefly concerned with Hooker's place in social history and, even more, in the history of political theory.
While Hooker's Thomism is obvious and well-acknowledged, an essay examining it was nevertheless called for in view of the quiet revolution in studies of Aquinas in recent decades, a revaluation that might have significantly informed and modulated our understanding of Hooker, had any contributor undertaken to consider it.

 Richard Hooker's Doctrine of the Royal Supremacy   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
His apologetic intention was 'to resolve the consciences' of the Disciplinarian-Puritan critics of the Elizabethan Settlement by a demonstration that the Royal Supremacy was wholly consistent with the principles of doctrinal orthodoxy as understood and upheld by the Magisterial Reformation.
Subsequent chapters demonstrate Hooker's reliance on the teaching of the Magisterial Reformers in the formulation of both the soteriological foundations of his political thought and his ecclesiology.
Hooker's appeal to the authority of Patristic Christological and Trinitarian Orthodoxy in support of the Royal Supremacy is also discussed.
