Richard P.C. Hanson

Richard P.C. Hanson

Richard Patrick Crosland Hanson(1916- ) was bishop of Clogher in the Church of Ireland from 1970-1973. A historian of antiquity (he claimed to distrust history written concerning periods subsequent to 600 A.D.) he was particularly noted for a life of St.Patrick. He discovered that ecumenical work was particularly restricted in the context of the Troubles in a diocese lying on both sides of the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland, which he accordingly resigned to take up a professorship in Ancient History at Manchester University. During this period he worked notably on the evolution of Christian theology in the period between (and immediately prior to) the Councils of Nicea (325 A.D.) and Constantinople (381 A. D.). He was the first British or Irish contributor to the Sources Chrétiennes collection.
