Abstract

The article begins with a summary of two previous articles about extra-canonical ordinations: 1) the ordination of women priests by bishops of the Episcopal Church in 1974; 2) the ordination of bishops for conservative groups that broke away from the Episcopal Church, beginning in 1978. There is also new material about the Cyprianic and Augustinian doctrines of ordination. The article concludes with a discussion of the Womanpriest movement among Roman Catholics.
