A Century of Anglo-Catholicism

"A Century of Anglo-Catholicism" offers a scholarly and comprehensive examination of one of the most significant religious movements in modern English history. This work provides a critical analysis of the Anglo-Catholic revival within the Church of England, tracing its trajectory from the early 19th-century Oxford Movement through to the complex theological and social landscape of the early 20th century.Herbert Leslie Stewart delves into the intellectual foundations, liturgical innovations, and organizational shifts that defined the movement's attempt to reclaim the Catholic heritage of Anglicanism. The book explores the debates surrounding ritualism, ecclesiastical authority, and the relationship between the church and the state. By evaluating both the successes and the controversies of the movement, Stewart illuminates how these traditionalist currents reshaped the character of the Anglican communion and influenced British social life. This volume remains an essential resource for those seeking to understand the historical development of the High Church tradition, the evolution of modern Christian thought, and the persistent tensions between tradition and modernity in the religious sphere.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
