English Episcopal ACTA: Volume 22: Chichester 1215-1253

by Philippa M. Hoskin

Although the diocese of Chichester was both small and poor, its bishops between 1215 and 1253 were eminent men. They included Ralph Neville, who combined his role as Chancellor of the Exchequer with government of the see, and Richard Wich, who was canonized within ten years of his death. This volume offers a unique opportunity to compare the episcopates and households of these extraordinary bishops.
