Description
Summary:This paper describes and analyses the means by which the stipends of the established church’s ministers in Scotland’s capital city were financed from the time of the Reformation to the passing of the Church of Scotland (Property and Endowments) Act in 1925. Offering a preliminary calibration with commentary on the operation of the ministerial labour market, it throws new light on our understanding of the established church functioning as a business organisation, at a time when it was highly influential in the political, economic, social and religious life of the nation.
