Tracts for the Times (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781023908467)

This volume of "Tracts for the Times" comprises Nos. 47-66, along with "Records of the Church," Nos. XIX-XXV, and No. 67, offering a detailed snapshot of the theological and ecclesiastical debates roiling the Church of England in the 1830s. Written by prominent figures of the Oxford Movement, including Edward Bouverie Pusey, John Keble, William Palmer, Richard Hurrell Froude, and Isaac Williams, these tracts explore critical issues of doctrine, liturgy, and church history.

The "Tracts" aimed to revive Catholic principles within Anglicanism and challenged the prevailing liberal and Erastian tendencies of the time. They cover topics ranging from the authority of the Church Fathers to the significance of the sacraments, providing a rich resource for understanding the intellectual and spiritual currents of the era. This collection offers valuable insights into the development of Anglo-Catholicism and the broader history of religious thought in the 19th century. These writings continue to resonate with those interested in the enduring questions of faith, tradition, and the nature of the Church.
