摘要
16世纪的宗教改革推动了英国现代国家的构建,在这场改革运动中,英格兰的教会制度成为各方论战的焦点。作为国教会的政治理论家,理查德·胡克认为,英格兰必须形成一个由国王领导的统一教会。胡克直面清教徒与天主教徒的挑战,论证了英国教会和国家的同一性,并在理论层面证明,英格兰国王既是国家的主权者,同时也是教会的首脑。通过对教会和国家权力结构的分析,胡克得出结论:只有在国王的领导之下,国教的制度才能得到捍卫,英国作为一个信仰共同体的团结和统一才能维系下去。
The Reformation in the 16th century promoted the construction of s modern state in England.The church in this movement was seen as a major issue by each side in the debate.As a political theorist of Anglican Church,Richard Hooker argued that England must build a unified church led by the king.Hooker met the challenge from Puritans and Catholics,and alleged the identity between the church and the commonwealth of England.Moreover,at the theoretical level,he demonstrated that the king of England was not just the sovereign of the commonwealth,but also the head of the church.Based on the analysis of the power structure of the church and the kingdom,Hooker concluded that only under the leadership of the king could the regime of Anglicanism be defended while the solidarity and unity be maintained.
