Overview
The Oxford Movement changed the course of English Church history in the nineteenth century. The growing interest in reviving Catholic elements of liturgy and theology in the English Church sparked debate between the Church of England’s evangelical and High Church elements. Proponents of the Anglo-Catholic revival sought to reconnect the Church to its early roots, while opponents decried any attempt to “Romanize” it.
This collection opens a window onto that period of Anglo-Catholic revival and Ritualism, offering texts that focus on ceremonial aspects of Anglican Church life and history. Examine Anglicanism’s ties to Catholicism more closely and study Anglican liturgy with six volumes from the Library of Liturgiology & Ecclesiology series, including the Cambridge Camden Society’s Hierurgia Anglicana—which documents the practice of Catholic ceremony in the Church after the Reformation. You’ll also get collected essays on Church ceremony and ritual, an English translation of the Ordo Romanus Primus, and essays relating to ecclesiology.
In the Logos editions, these volumes are enhanced by amazing functionality. Scripture citations link directly to English translations, and important terms link to dictionaries, encyclopedias, and a wealth of other resources in your digital library. Perform powerful searches to find exactly what you’re looking for. Take the discussion with you using tablet and mobile apps. With Logos Bible Software, the most efficient and comprehensive research tools are in one place, so you get the most out of your study.
