Oxford. In 1828 he was elected See also:fellow of See also:Oriel; and after a few years there as a See also:tutor, during which he was ordained and acted as See also:curate at Cuddesdon, he became See also:rector of Broadwindsor, See also:Dorset (1838). He became a See also:prebendary of Sarum in 1841 and of See also:Wells in 1849. In 1851 he was preferred to the valuable living of See also:East Brent, See also:Somerset, and in the same See also:year was made See also:archdeacon of See also:Taunton. For many years Archdeacon Denison represented the extreme High Tory party not only in politics but in the Church, regarding all " progressive " movements in See also:education or See also:theology as See also:abomination, and vehemently repudiating the " higher See also:criticism " from the days of Essays and Reviews (186o) to those of Lux Mundi (189o). In 1853 he resigned his position as examining See also:chaplain to the See also:bishop of See also:Bath and Wells owing to his pronounced eucharistic views. A suit on the complaint of a neighbouring clergyman ensued and after various complications Denison was condemned by the archbishops' See also:court at Bath (1856); but onappeal the court of See also:Arches and the privy See also:council quashed this See also:judgment on a technical plea. The result was to make Denison a keen See also:champion of the ritualistic school. He edited The Church and See also:State See also:Review (1862-1865). See also:Secular state education and the " See also:conscience clause " were See also:anathema to him. Until the end of his See also:life he remained a protagonist in theological controversy and a keen fighter against latitudinarianism and liberalism; but the sharpest religious or See also:political See also:differences never See also:broke his See also:personal friendships and his See also:Christian charity. Among other things for which he will be remembered was his origination of See also:harvest festivals. He died on the 21st of See also:March 1896.
