Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the rise of the Oxford Movement, a 19th-century religious revival within the Church of England that sought to restore the Church's "lost" identity and Catholic heritage. The author examines the movement's roots in the Evangelical and Tractarian movements and traces its development through its influential Tracts for the Times and the eventual defection of many of its leaders to Roman Catholicism. Through an in-depth analysis of the movement's leading figures, including John Keble, John Henry Newman, and Edward Bouverie Pusey, the book sheds light on the complex theological, social, and political factors that shaped the movement. Beyond its historical account, the book offers insights into the enduring legacy of the Oxford Movement, exploring its impact on Anglican theology, liturgy, and spirituality, and its continuing relevance to contemporary debates within the Church of England.
