Short Studies In Ecclesiastical History And Biography (1884) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781437144499)

Short Studies in Ecclesiastical History and Biography is a book written by H. Nutcombe Oxenham and originally published in 1884. The book is a collection of essays and biographical sketches that explore various aspects of church history and the lives of notable figures in the Christian faith. The book is divided into two parts: the first part focuses on the history of the early church and the development of Christian doctrine, while the second part contains biographical sketches of important figures in the history of the church. The essays in the first part of the book cover a range of topics, including the origins of Christian worship, the development of the creeds, and the role of the papacy in the medieval church. The biographical sketches in the second part of the book include profiles of figures such as St. Augustine, St. Francis of Assisi, and John Wesley. Oxenham's writing is scholarly and well-researched, but also accessible to non-experts. The book provides a valuable overview of the history of the Christian church and the lives of some of its most important figures.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
