Albert Kenneth Cragg (8 March 1913 – 13 November 2012) was an Anglican bishop and scholar[1] who commented widely[2] on religious topics for more than fifty years, most notably ChristianMuslim relations.[3]

Episcopal ministry

[edit]

Cragg was elevated to the episcopateasAssistant BishopofJerusalem in 1969.[7]

There was at that time no Bishop of Egypt, and Cragg was given responsibility for the oversight of the Anglican communities in that country, until, in 1974, as a result of the reorganisation of the Anglican Church in the Middle East, a new Bishop was appointed.[8]

He was then appointed ReaderinReligious Studies, at Sussex University,[9] following which he was VicarofHelme (and an Assistant Bishop within the Wakefield Diocese).

In 1982, he retired to Diocese of Oxford.
