1917年，亨斯利·汉森被提名为赫里福德主教，引发了一场著名的教会争议，即“赫里福德丑闻”，这可能会导致英国国教内部分裂，并引发教会与国家之间的危机。争论的焦点一直被理解为是教义上的，但本文认为，这在很大程度上代表了对教会政策的争论，其结果对国家教会的持续特征产生了重大影响。这也解释了赫里福德事件如何既刺激又阻碍了对总理任命主教的改革要求。
The nomination of Hensley Henson as bishop of Hereford in 1917 provoked a famous ecclesiastical controversy, the ‘Hereford scandal’, which threatened a split within the Church of England and a crisis between the Church and the State. The point of contention has always been understood to have been doctrinal, but this article argues that this was largely a proxy for disputes over Church policies, and that the outcome had significant consequences for the continuing character of the national Church. It also explains how the Hereford episode both stimulated and arrested demands for reform in the prime ministerial nomination of bishops.
