What Was the Oxford Movement?

In this timely and much needed new book for students, George Herring attempts to answer the question What Was The Oxford Movement? Herring provides an up-to date starting point for investigation and, in doing so, synthesises some of the best modern research on the movement. He also breaks new ground in a number of other areas- not least in re-evaluating the effect on the Movement of Newman's conversion to Roman Catholicism, and in providing a long-overdue account of the impact of Tractarianism within the parochial setting. This book, packed with useful data for students is sure to become a key student text.Read less
